just lawl

I just installed StarCraft, along with the expansion, on my computer with Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit. Installation went fine and the game starts up without any errors, but the problem begins after the loading screen. Once I get to the menu, I get a bunch of blinking and random black lines on the left side of my screen, along with a much more dense collection of black lines in a small square in the top left corner of my monitor. I have StarCraft fully patched and my video drivers are updated. I tried running in multiple compatibility modes, but running in XP SP2 did not fix it and StarCraft wouldn't even run with anything lower. I also tried running it as an administrator, again trying different compatibility modes, but it did nothing. I also tried selecting the other options such as Run in 256 colors and Run in 640x480, but neither of them fixed it.

There is something strange about it, though. I turned on scaling with a fixed aspect ratio so that games without widescreen settings, such as MapleStory, would not be stretched, but StarCraft stretches across my whole monitor regardless of this setting. I even tried turning off scaling, but StarCraft continues to take up the whole screen. It could just be that StarCraft is too old to run on this hardware and this operating system without flaws, but I have heard of others playing StarCraft on Vista with no problem, so there must be a solution.

Well I'm planning on getting another $10 NX cash card and I want to spend some of it on a Hair change for my Pirate to be. The only problem is, I currently like 3 hair styles, and I can't decide.
So I put up the poll, and let you decide.




I plan on spending the rest of the NX on Gachapon and any left over NX will be used for the MTS or just saved up.

Whenever I turn off my computer for a little, my keyboard doesn't work in the same USB slot as I had it in before. When I put something like a flash drive or an internet adapter in the old keyboard USB slot, it would work fine. I have to change my keyboard slot every few days so I can use it t-t. It won't work in the ones Ive used 2-5 restarts ago either. I'm running out of slots t-t

halp?

I asked this question on Sleepywood a very long time ago, and nobody could help me out. I'll give it a try on here.
Basically, when I try to take screenshots, every now and then it freezes my Maple for about ten seconds and completely glitches up my screen. If I alt+tab, and then tab back in, everything returns to normal. That however, can make it a risk/hassle to take screenshots in dangerous places (When you're about to level up/killing a boss/ETC.) Basically, I just want to take screenshots without having everything all fucked up and annoying.

I can still manage to print-screen during this glitch up. Here's a couple I've gotten over a span of about three months.






Imagine that happening whenever you take a screenshot. Imagine that happening at Pap, or Zakum, or during your level 200 level up or something. That's some annoying pomegranate right there. I'd be very appreciative to whoever could solve this for me.

This is a really old video of mine, I made it last September of my old CB in Khaini. I decided to put it on here because to this day, I'm still fairly proud of it. I'd make new videos of my Kradian character, but my harddrive is dying and I can't fraps well anymore.. =[.

The first version, the youtube version, was rendered in really low quality, and I didn't realize this until it was too late. The second version, on Veoh, is much higher quality, but Veoh videos are riddled with ads. So I'll post both links, and you decide what to watch.

Pulled straight from my thread on sleepywood, but since I will probably be hanging around here a bit, I figured I might as well post it here as well.

This will organize everybody's training grounds and newcomer magicians can use this information.

This thread is only meant to serve as a guide to magicians on which training ground members of the magician community have found to be effective for experience, money gain, or both. All that is presented here is the general knowledge that the community has accumulated on what training locations tend to be most effective at the various periods of a character's training life. It is not meant to be a law by which all magicians must follow when they play maple story.

If you wish to do something different from what is listed here, you are free to do so. It is likely that deviating from this guide will give you poorer results in training, but it is also possible that you find something even better than what this reference has to offer.

If a training place is missing or if a new place comes out, you may send me a PM to have it added. It is possible for me to miss things (though I try not to). If you want me to add something, please provide as much information as possible. Posting things such as level, experience rate, skill build, AP distribution and funding information makes it much easier to see the feasibility of a training method for others.

[INDENT]<Disclaimer> Before getting started, I reserve the right to make changes to this information based on my own experience and on people's suggestion. I do not take any credit for "discovering" good training spots, however I do take credit for scavenging for the information and putting them all into one organized thread for the public to use.[/INDENT]Update History:
