  1. Can't see any threads on this yet... I see it's now illegal to unlock your mobile phone in the US, unless you have written permission from the network provide who locked it in the first place. What do people make of this? When your contracts up, would the cost of the handset not be covered in the 2/3 years of monthly contract payments? What if you want to keep the handset and don't want another contract with the current operator? Maybe a PAYG SIM for it instead? Unlocking Your Mobile Phone Is No Longer Legal | Threat Level | Wired.com With some similarities between US and UK/EU law, is it likely this will be looked at over here? My contracts up in 3 months and I don't want another. Instead, I've found a cheap SIMS only PAYG option with another network that I'll be going with while keeping my current handset. I'll therefore be getting it unlocked at some point.

    @TBlax - good to see you in game mate! DayZ Commander makes life a lot easier on that front! While I'm happy with the what went on last night, gutted that Corkster managed to kill me when he reached the land. Unloaded 7 DMR clips and 9 Stanag clips at him in the water. He was about 400m away and I had really low blood so was white screening and shaking. Then annoyed I got shot by a random on the way back to Muroko when I had a satchel charge!!! I'll focus on gearing back up again and making my way North to where you guys are today! If those three are on tonight, I'll hunt them down after. He was seriously gutted about his chopper though!
  3. Office 2013 now supported from Autumn 2013.
  4. KB17910 on SupportNet will provide you with the new updated SIMS technical Roadmap! This has already annoyed me.

    It was all part of my plan to get you into the chopper. And it worked. I feel I owe you some rep... EDIT: Seems I've given you too much rep love already...

    @DMcGuigan - Dope has uploaded the video footage. You will see how accidental your chopper incident really was... @TBlax - Careful around DMcGuigan, he has the uncanny ability of being killed often!!!

    Don't worry. If your with us (and the server is quiet at the time), we just go weapons free and blast anything that moves, even if it's 500m away. Got though 17 Stanag clips yesterday in Calamar!
  8. BBC News - Iran 'successfully sends monkey into space'
  9. I've just read that the SIMS .net re-index database patch "cannot" be applied using the 'SA' account, but instead should be applied using the 'sysman' account instead! Is this correct? If so, why should it not be ran with the 'SA' account?

    I most certainly do (unless I get aggro from the wife! ). Most of us are on some point throughout the week so just feel free to jump on whenever.
  11. Betas are released to the LA via Schools Manager and SOLUS3. If your in a school, you can e-mail [email protected] and request Beta access. They will then e-mail you links and P/W's to access the ISO's if access is granted.
  12. Not that I'm aware of. If the SIMS technical Roadmap (Dated Jan 2012!!!) is anything to go by, Windows 8 is not "officially" supported until the SIMS Spring 2013 release. Office 2013 is not on the current road map but for some reason, SIMS Autumn 2013 rings a bell for support (though I'm not 100%). Jonathan Wood said he was going to post the new technical roadmap on Friday gone but no sign of it yet. @PhilNeal, can we expect to see it this week? I've read on a few posts that some people have installed SIMS on Windows 8 for testing and it 'appears' to work but I would not go live with either Win 8 or 2013 in your live environment until they are officially supported.
  13. Well, the SIMS, FMS and Discover Spring BETA is now available. I'm sure that previously for the Discover betas, links were posted on SupportNet. Now it appears you have to e-m,ail UAT for access. Getting my test VM's upgraded today. Hopefully all goes smoothly. I guess this also means that the full release will be 3-5 weeks away(?) and we'll be able to start looking at the SQL 2012 migration tools!

    I don't know what your moaning about really, it worked. And just be thankful that I tactically shout around you with the DMR in that hotel! From what I can see on Twitter, the chopper has been saved however needs a windscreen as the fuel is leaking out.

    I'm hopeful @MK-2 gets the video uploaded later today of the fun and games with @DMcGuigan and the helicopter of doom!!! We were hoping to see you online over the weekend @TBlax.
  16. The latest SIMSInst appears to create it automatically now. It redirects to the SIMS Folder path specified when the SIMSInst.exe installer has been ran. This is where we (and I assume most people) keep their master Connect.ini file. Not sure if it's intelligent enough though to check if a connect.ini is in there or not, and if it's not, not create one automatically. Still best to check though by running SIMS .net after it's been installed. ...unless you use SOLUS 3 where it should push out the conenct.ini specified in the UI.

    "Weapon attachments are a great bi-product of our entire redesign of every aspect of the inventory system. Nothing is available to show on this yet, currently the only attachment we have fully configured in the game is the magazine. You must load the magazine with ammunition and then it is considered an attachment to the weapon. The quantity and condition of your magazines will be particularly important in the standalone. Look after them!" Funny when we mentioned this yesterday! Sounds like you have to keep your empty mags too and fill them!

  21. And the ability to display text messages on the TV.
  22. I have to disagree. I think it's a great app that enhances the use of XBMC. It's very slick app and well designed taking full advantage of the touch screen devices. I have it on my droid and iPad and the wife has it on her iPhone and has no issues using it. As for the whole "too many key presses", if you put it into the remote control mode and leave the app running, just unlock the phone and press the pause button - job done. Or enable the setting in app to disable the screen from locking so you have all the buttons immediately to hand just like a physical remote.
  23. Apparently so! I had no idea! Think I'll be turning that off then!
