I thought it was valid, because all your responses seemed to have a negative
attitude.  But I'll withdraw my comment...sorry.

I see Carl answered my question.  What a silly setting...  Sounds like
something that Microsoft would come up with. :-(

Why would there be total *opposites* in settings?  No WONDER people get
confused... :-(

I guarantee your english is better than my...um, whatever your native language
is...<g>

That's really the crux of the problem right there, because that
statement really seems to apply to all games that use FF for anything
more than bump effects.  Honestly, ISI's FF is amazing, but is even more
difficult to set up than GPL's.  I think this is why we see so much
disagreement here about who has the better FF implementation - they are
just all very difficult to set up right, and therefore the one that
people will think is the best is the one that they managed to get set up
right.

When someone uses an assumption as an argument in the first place, I think a
plain BS is sufficient.

M:  Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic
gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.
(short pause)
A:  No it isn't.

I will always miss those.
I like Monty Python, but I don't look at things twice (that often) ;-)

Ok, I might get a reference to the knights who say Ni...
