Looks like Bethesda and id are teaming up. I would have never expected id Software to sell out. I hope it's a good thing.

J. Anthony Reed, 47, was watching the movie "Hangover" at the AMC Theater on Van Ness when all the lights went out and the smell of burning rubber filled the theater.That's a multi-story movie theater that Throbble, Cuchulann and I regularly meet at to see movies together.
void main()
{
object oPC = OBJECT_SELF;
object oSkin = GetItemInSlot(INVENTORY_SLOT_CARMOUR, oPC);
//if oSkin is not valid create/equip a new skin
if(!GetIsObjectValid(oSkin))
{
oSkin = CreateItemOnObject("x3_it_pchide", oPC);
AssignCommand(oPC, ActionEquipItem(oSkin, INVENTORY_SLOT_CARMOUR));
}
//item property from iprp_feats.2da line 53 PLAYER_TOOL_01
itemproperty ipPlayerTool = ItemPropertyBonusFeat(53);
AddItemProperty(DURATION_TYPE_PERMANENT, ipPlayerTool , oSkin);
}
The feat "Player Tool 1" will show up on the PC's radial menu, where the horse commands are, which can then be added to a quickslot. (See attached pic at the bottom.)//::///////////////////////////////////////////////

And that's the basics.1. being nowhereSo I heard about this word today and I think it's complete crap. This word has no real meaning. It's nonsense.
2. the condition or attribute of being nowhere; non-existence
From reading the forums here, I know that there are some people out there who hate Obsidian Entertainment with a passion, and who for some reason think that Knights of the Republic 2 and Neverwinter Nights 2 are an affront to western civilization. I’m not one of those people. I’d much rather champion a developer who tries new and interesting things but sometimes fails, rather than simply going along with a developer who clones ideas and succeeds. But something just seems to be wrong with Obsidian. They usually come up with good ideas, but can they actually develop games? Can they finish a project on time and without a plethora of bugs? Recent evidence suggests that the answer to these questions is “no,†and Storm of Zehir, their latest expansion pack for Neverwinter Nights 2, is at best a black eye for them.And I thought I was being harsh with my opinions of Obsidian.
Fresh off a grueling budget battle in his state, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Saturday that if fellow Republican governors threatening to turn down stimulus funds follow through on their pledge, he'd be happy to have their share.I may think that Republicans are a bunch of inbred water heads but I can't get enough of Arny.
"Everyone has their own way of thinking," Schwarzenegger said of those governors in an interview with POLITICO at the National Governors Association's annual meeting. "I just hope they give me their funding."
COLLINSVILLE, Ill. – Pranksters in at least three states are messing with electronic road signs meant to warn motorists of possible traffic problems by putting drivers on notice about Nazi zombies and raptors. And highway safety officials aren't amused.
The latest breach came Tuesday during the morning rush hour near Collinsville, Ill., where hackers changed a sign along southbound Interstate 255 to read, "DAILY LANE CLOSURES DUE TO ZOMBIES."
A day earlier in Indiana's Hamilton County, the electronic message on a board in Carmel's construction zone warned drivers of "RAPTORS AHEAD — CAUTION."
And signs in Austin, Texas, recently flashed: "NAZI ZOMBIES! RUN!!!" and "ZOMBIES IN AREA! RUN."

After banging my head on this for a week and I can finally get back to finishing up the quests.You Got Flagshipped
To start it all off was Hellgate: London. I can talk for ages about this game, listing the many faults found within it, and I still wouldn't cover all the troubles to it. Here's a game where you can effectively use in a conversation for the epitome to the definition of "everything went wrong." No one could have ever predicted that this game was going to bomb on the scale that it did. You had ex-Blizzard guys (some of which were the creative and original minds behind Diablo) getting together to make a game of their genre. But something went wrong. Maybe it was their CEO "following his heart" when it came to juggling with people's jobs or maybe it was the ridiculous advertising campaign in Korea, or maybe it was just not listening to your beta testers, but I'm willing to bet it was most likely a combination of all of the above. It's pretty bad when a term known as "flagshipping" is coined out of the endeavors you have taken.
Out of professional courtesy, Namco is holding up the online servers until February 1, 2009, after which the game will indefinitely be dead (HanbitSoft bought the rights to both games but Namco refuses to hand over the American distribution rights for Hellgate).
