I think the creature and cell stages have the best idea but are still epic fails as to what they could be. Far too short and no challenge at all, even on hard. No need for most of the games cool ideas, it all turns out the same anyway. Lets hope this game can be modded, the people would make a much better game than maxis ever could. very good review I am also dissapointed like you but am yet to discover any bugs, touch wood.

When I was blabbing on about the tribal stage, I wasn't mad that I had to give them gifts, just mad you had to do them every five minutes. I was also disappointed in the tribal stage because it was literally impossible to raid another tribe without your tribe dieing out, and that all of the other tribes get better weapons, a grade two tent at the beginning, and that your hands were always full. I think of the tribal stage as more of a chore, rather than game. whoops, I made a typo.

Also, the a patch for spore makes ecodisasters, pirates coming to steal your spices, and raids less likely and slowed down on the space stage(Except on hard). I was okay with all the stages except the tribal stage, because all of the tribes hate you, and if you don't give them presents they're going to destroy your village. Whoa, I didn't realize how much I was rambling on. :P Well, actually you can get more installation counts to your disk if you ask EA and/or maxis.

That whole section. The last step is to add a simple % to the end of "midi.ASharp3Velocity = var.LeftPedal" Bada-bing. You won't have the sound it makes when you initially press the button, but if you're a good drummer, you'll want it this way better than no open and close control. For those of you wondering how you can get the hi hat pedal to work, you know, like an actual hi-hat, you can modify your code with a nested if statement, like so:

if Joystick1.x > var.senseThreshold then
if Joystick1.Button10 then
var.RedDrum = MapEnsureRange(Smooth(Joystick1.x, 5), -1,1, 5,100) * 10 + var.RedDrumOffset%
else
var.LeftPedal = MapEnsureRange(Smooth(Joystick1.x, 5), -1,1, 5,100) * 10 + var.RedDrumOffset%
endif
wait var.WaitTime
else

Then you’ll have to go near the bottom and get rid of the entire “if Joystick1.button9″ etc code. That whole section.

The last step is to add a simple % to the end of “midi.ASharp3Velocity = var.LeftPedal”

Bada-bing. You won’t have the sound it makes when you initially press the button, but if you’re a good drummer, you’ll want it this way better than no open and close control.

This drum kit can be used to record its drum sound by using nero wave editer,just use digital as input and have drum sample program on top of nero whilst recording, works a treat.

In fact, getting them wide spread shouldn't be a problem... I hear that the only real difference between Hunting Unlimited 2008 and the new Hunting Unlimited 2009 are the inclusion of my missions. Of course, I wouldn't know, because they didn't even send me a free copy for my trouble, and I'm DEFINITELY not shelling out to buy a copy if MY missions are the only new content. lol @michael63000 - I’d prefer you just link back to this page - which would be very much appreciated - than host them elsewhere.
