PDF Manual Problems!

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

PDF Manual Problems!

I have copied the PDF Manual to my hardrive from the disk. Because it was very slow at loading up when trying to read the pages in Adobe Acrobat 5 from the disk. But I still have the same problem with it located on my hardrive also.

I have also tried viewing other PDF Manuals which all load-up fast without any probems. Just seems to be this Manual only. Maybe it's because it 8mb large I guess. When I try to view a page in the manual it seems to take a quite a few seconds for the images to load-up. And when I try to few the next page i have the same problems again. It does load-up. But it seems as though its struggling to do so on each page.

Does anyone else here have this problem also!

Hard to say since you didnt state what problem you are having.

But it should work fine with Adobe 5, did for me.

It may help Gary Warez bolton if you bought the proper game first.

You know if you actually buy the game, the manual comes with it in the box.

Also, this game does support connecting directly to an IP, not sure where you got it doesn't from.

The Backgrounds of the pages are actually quite large... that is why...

Give it up already, Mr. Warez....

Like X2 or not, like Freelancer or not.

Warez has no place on either forum. Not on any forum.

Both X2 and FL are cool in their own respective ways. Two cool games in one year! Were all spoiled!

But that only happens when people BUY those games and funds companies like Egosoft and Microsoft to produce those game we all enjoy. I take a dim view of what is essensially a common thief.

Absolutely TBY, he's been banned from X2 forums, and they're watching us have the "fun" of having him around here......

Personally, I'm looking forward to X2, looks like an interesting game. Just because we've had issues with a few of their board members doesn't mean I can't enjoy the game on its own merits. Hopefully they'll find a decent publisher this time though. Hate to see all that hard work that people should be paid for go to waste....

Agreed, everyone is slagging off X2 or FL but the truth is both are different games for different tastes. IWAR, X2, FL, Tachyon. and so on. One mans bread is anothers poison.

The problems between the two forums are generated by a handful of nuts, the grater majority agree that for space gamers we are all very lucky this year!

And thats my 2 cents worth. Roll on X2 and long live FL.

So, I broke into someone's house and I stole their PDA and their laptop and I can't seem to install Windows XP on it, turns out the BIOS is not compatible with this model of IBM! Piece of junk IBM! I'll have to go to the IBM forums and ask them for help.....

GB needs a good ol' fashion banning....

Hey what is this! Pick on Gary Bolton day or something!

And as far as talking about Warez goes. I was not the person who started it off. That honor falls to "DREAD".

He came into my thread, and posted some comments I made in ShareReactor Forum. I was saying nothing about File Sharing until he brought it up trying to slag me off. So please get your fact right in the first place.

And were the hell did you get the Warez thing from. I use a File Sharing program that millions of other people on the internet also use. Talk about being two faced. I supose you lot here have never used a file sharing progam!

Hang on there's a Pink Pig flying over our house!

Well in that case you are calling Millions of users common thiefs! Because do you think I'm the only person who uses a File Sharing program or something. Were have you been hibernating dude. In your attic
