If you are getting this error –
VMware for variable "config.version" is not valid in encoding "windows-1251".
To fix this, install the Russian language pack on Windows 7 and then your good to go.

$html .= '</div>';
} else { //Otherwise use the orignal code, so that the flash banner still goes to the right place... (instead of a blank page!)
$html .= $html_flash;
}

Now upload a transparent Spacer GIF/PNG to the following location, or point the above code to the desired location of choice:

BFBC2: Battlefield Bad Company 2
Wednesday, January 20th, 2010
Soon to be released EA/DICE’s newest installment, supports full DX11 can’t wait now I need a new graphics card
BFBC2 Full game is out 5th March.
PC Beta Release date details (official information from DICE),
Beta Begins/Ends – Jan 28th/Feb 25th
Map Name – Port Valdez
Players – 32
Game Mode – Rush
Environment – Snow
Theme – Vehicle and Infantry
Back Story - The battle for Port Valdez is fought alongside the waterline towards a great oil industrial landscape in the Alaskan mountains. Using basically everything they’ve got the Russian forces are launching an airborne assault to knock out the oil industries in the area. In their arsenal there are Main Battle Tanks as well as fast-moving Quad Bikes and mobile armored AA. It’s a vehicle focused battle, but with plenty of infantry combat.
How to Download – Check back to the Battlefield Bad Company 2 for a new Beta Page closer to beta launch date for download instructions.
How To Get Access – Reserve Battlefield Bad Company 2 is the most sure fire way, but we are still working with some other Retailers & e-Tailers that wish to participate. If you’re eager to ensure you get in the two confirmed distributors to Pre-Order are the EA Store, Amazon.de and at GameStop.com. We’ll have another Blog at a later date with an update on the retailers & e-Tailers that have teamed up with us as well as alternate channels to obtain a Closed Beta Key. *NOTE: This promotion is with participating retailers only. Please check with your local retailers if PC Beta Code is available through their stores.
Anti Cheat – We’re going with PunkBuster supporting the same options BF2 and BF2142 had to run unranked without PunkBuster.
Mod Tools – There will not be mod tools for BFBC2. However a majority of the the games logic is controlled by the server and there will be Serverside control options for the dedicated servers.
Public Server Files – We will not distribute these publicly. There are many factors for why we have decided this with the biggest factor being security & integrity of our game & Dedicated Servers.
GO NAKED!
Thursday, April 9th, 2009HAPPY NO CSS Naked Day! ;p

Mac(shit) PC vs Mac
Friday, April 11th, 2008
* This a old post taken from my Myspace Blog one day I was raging – See the new post: http://3l3373.com/mac-hate-aka-pc-vs-mac-v20/

The Apple iBox Gaming Console
Red vs Blue – Switch (Apple Parody)
http://www.youtube.com/v/F4bred83AK
- Macs are now shipped with PC CPUs ‘Intel Duo’ Haha, as the CPUs they used to use were so slow and didn’t compete with PC standards, they cant use AMD CPUs PC only (which will be releasing their new r620 chipsets which will totally rape intel).
- You can upgrade PCs a lot more easier without going out and buying a full new system <>
- PCs are cheaper and you are more accessible to a wider verity of applications (which again are cheaper as well).
- PCs don’t look ghey or girly or just plain lame with the Mac white / bubble look exteriors.
- Macs can’t use DirectX-10 hahahahaha (no next gen games, i.e. Crysis).
- Speaking of games what games can a Mac run? (and its meant to be FUN lool).
- Online usage of OSX vs WinXP (XP 85.02% OSX 4.34%) linkage
- Macs are just for ppl who wanna show off they are not more powerfull! The most resource intensive applications know to computers are games (that’s why they use them to benchmark the latest hardware) Macs aren’t even compatible with 2year old hardware! on PCs they are backwards.
- A common one that comes up, Mac’s are easier to use, wahhhh! Hahaha FUCK OFF U NOOBS its not our fault ur so damn computer illiterate!
- If you phrase Macintosh for their diverse array of products you have been lead like a lamb into a abattoir blinded by media and pretense.
- FACT Flash player (any build) running within a Machintosh OSX enviroment runs atleast 5.FPS slower than in Windows OS.
- New one that keeps popping up, VISTA is coppping MAC OSX… how the fuck do they work that out just cos its using more advanced 3d desktop effects (openGL effects) flip3D, glass effect and more animation on opening windows, now its copying… well look here look what a linux can do… PWND: http://www.youtube.com/v/dQkSObRtw0o
- Macs’s can’t get viruses/infected HAHAHA!They say Macs are not vulnerable to viruses and malicious software, I’ve been reading some forums and articles on the web and I have found these few viruses that can cause loss of data and all the rest of the normal virus infected criteria …Virus list (here are just a few)…· Backdoor.Win32.Alicia.a Backdoor.Win32.Alicia.e DoS.Win32.XScript.03 Exploit.OSX.Launch.a Exploit.OSX.Safari.a IM-Worm.OSX.Leap.a Rootkit.Mac.Weapox.a Rootkit.OSX.Weapox.b Virus.OSX.Macarena.a Worm.OSX.Inqtana.a Worm.OSX.Inqtana.b Worm.OSX.Niqtana.a
- Mac virus challenge dropped “Apple macintosh peripherals maker DVForge has cancelled a $25,000 (£13,900) challenge to hackers to write a virus against the mac operating system after being warned by Apple it could encourage real attacks on users.”haha that’s so damn lame read more here: http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum49/737.htmThe thing i find funny is why do they make AV-applications for the Mac if it can’t get viruses? Wouldn’t make sense …Its a bit obvious that Macs have such a low market share interest of the online market so no one gives a toss and does bother trying to break them cos how cares about them… pffft
How about Leap-A?

15. GRAPHICS
I love the way everyone thinks “Graphic Designers” use Mac’s to deisgn on … its like they can’t take anyone serious if they aren’t – I have been a designer for many years I have never bought/owned a Mac i have been forced to use one on many ocassions as i was freelancing for over 3 years I would always be using one of the “high end” Mac’s in a London design studio (and they still crashed just like windows but even more!). Adobe Photoshop CS4 is out now they only released the 64bit version for Pc’s only because Mac’s don’t even support 64bit architecture yes that correct MAC OSX is still using 32bit technology – i mean Microsoft released 64bit OS (WIN XP x64) 7 years ago, comon wtf.
My definition (as I see it not like those stupid fucking Mac adverts u see on TVs etc, to market that ‘type’ of individual within our everyday society, haha)
Mac User
‘Creative’ type person (LMFAO!) laid back poncy show off know fuck all!
PC User
Pirate of the net, rape pillage destroy! Arhhh WHO THE FUCK DOES SPREAD SHEETS (what a lame marketing stunt ppl are so incompetent they even buy into it) i fucking rape ppls faces off (its a gaming don’t be scared ;s)…
Would you like some fries to go with your Mac(shit)? …
