I sent a reply to your request for my email address 2 days ago, but I never received a reply , nor the sofa model, .....
Hmmm, I sent you the needed e-mail at 15 June ...
This time, the anti-spam software can't be guilty ...

Ok, I will send it again with another of my address

Don't forget Replica_Fan's box-fan....
Of course I don't forget about this great model, I was just talking about "news from e-mail", who means all stuff who hasn't been wrote in this forum [;)] That's why.

Here is a fast screenshot.
You have to know objects will certainly move, be improved etc. It's an alpha project ...
I haven't used the great ZOtm_BigDOGGe transparent glasses yet, because I will put them in a new area, currently under construction

About Beta testing, I hope to get a longer racing area soon and will send it to modeler's team when done

See you

Man Zoon, that looks really cool so far bud. I can't wait to get my hands on this.

If you need anything else made, let us know in the Conference Room.

Be careful where you step....you might slip on all the drool i'm producing......wow!

Can hardly wait for this to be released. Looks great so far ZooN.

[gah] Very impress and very sad.

Im happy that it looks so cool yet sad that its not finish yet.
Why are you tormenting me like this?!

You are tormenting yourself......One cannot make something so wonderful from nothing in an instant......time and patience are required by all.....

Kruzr, SLO_SCATTER, ZOtm_BigDOGGe, Rep Fan
Thanx about your comments

ZOtm_BigDOGGe :
time and patience are required by all.....

That's right [;)]
Since there's all needed objects in ZK1, I can build ZK2 in 1 week with displacing the models and changing the race path ...
But I prefere to create new stuff with the help of good model creator, to let the gamers have the feeling to race an almost new track instead of just "redoing" ZK1.
In other words : I'm enjoying to produce (I hope) more quality than just quantity [;)]

About new idea of models to create, I will write the rest in the conference room.

See you

Well, I for one can't wait for this, eventhough I would have to reinstall MTM2 for that (BTW, does that work without problems on XP???)

One comment though, everytime I visit your site it tries to enforce "Gator" to my PC, is it possible to change that since "gator" is the single $%^&^&$B $%$&^% %$%^$ %$$#(&*$@ $#$%^ piece of @#$%^$# $#$%^@!#$%$ ever invented.........

ZOtm_BigDOGGe · Post by **ZOtm_BigDOGGe** » Fri Jun 27, 2003 6:29 am

MTM2 works fine with Windows-XP...at least my copy does....

Gator?! Yuck! Phew!

Sounds like you need to install AD-AWARE 6 and Spybot Destroyer to clean your system up.....the GATOR nuisance is usually from a cookie or adware placed on your machine during some website visit (I certainly hope KC's server providers haven't reached that point).......glad you didn't install Gator...whew!

The first time I ran Ad-aware, it found about 50 items to remove! Spybot sometimes finds stuff Ad-aware misses.

Both programs are free, have occasional updates to download, create undo backups, and are highly recommended by many reputable sources.

I have my machines set now to always ask if a cookie can be placed on my machine ( I rarely say yes).....you can get several cookies from one website! I only allow cookies from certain member-sites like this forum, so my computer can remember my passwords.

Lavasoft's Ad-aware (regular version is free):
http://lavasoft.de/

Spybot home page (asks for but doesn't require a donation):
http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang ... e=download

...Or get Spybot at Downloads.com:
http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10194 ... ag=lst-0-1

P.S...Gator has a buddy.....Xupiter Toolbar...avoid both like the Black Plague!

Don't worry, add-aware is on standby mate, recommended download, but everytime I visit the ZooN site it tries to convince me to download, and I don't like it one bit, that is why I actually pay for my domain, to keep junk like that out and maintain banner free....

I can't wait to try this track however (try to get back to topiv here....)

ZOtm_BigDOGGe · Post by **ZOtm_BigDOGGe** » Fri Jun 27, 2003 3:17 pm

Ahhhh....I see......I thought you were referring to the MTMG forum.....my bad.

Yes, I too get the Gator pop-up when visiting the Zoon-Byte website....it's just a pest I ignore....

If I recall correctly, Zoon didn't have a lot of choices for ISP's in France...that situation may have changed by now.

---------------------
P.S....My scrapyard is on a free ISP (topcities.com)....Please everyone, let me know if anything like Gator appears on it when you visit......thanks.

If that day ever happens, then that's when I move my scrapyard.....

you should be reinstalling anyway

Thx

Yep, sure MTM2 work on XP, I'm using XP Pro without any prob. There's only a little "resync" prob when you quit the game, Windows is change the screen's resolution several time before keeping the good one. I see th desktop, then black screen (switching) then desktop, then blackscreen, then desktop. Hmm. But the game work fine and is beautiful with FSAA (Full Screen Anti-Aliasing : it's an hardware feature of recent 3D cards).

Software ::::: Double Buffer setting ::::: DB + FSAA

One comment though, everytime I visit your site it tries to enforce "Gator" to my PC, is it possible to change ...
I hate those spyware stuff too !
I'm not sure about the source of this automatic downloading installation file by gator. You've said it was the host .... I think it's from the redirecting service "http://come.to". [uhoh]
I have tested to upload ZooN Byte web site somewhere else and never seen this gator when I don't use the come.to service but the direct URL instead.

The best way to kill all those stuff must be to buy a domain name and pay for a host .... hmmm ... but I have wrote "http://come.to/zoon" on a lot of places ( TXT files, web site, linked sites ..etc. )

So, the easy way is to click "abort" when gator is there ...

ch_2005 · Post by **ch_2005** » Sat Jul 05, 2003 9:08 pm

wow that was a fun 5 pages to read all at once.

ok my input - You need to come up with a ratio.
You need a ratio of how big stuff is gonna be in this kitchen world.
1 kitchen foot = 10 monster truck feet? or what?
whats the ratio of kitchen/monster feet?

that will make model building much easier to coordinate.

I'll build custom models.

I heard u guys say u dont want all this stuff in a public forum. If someone in charge gives me a list of all the people working on this project i can give a link to a bbs we all can use.

ZooN - it's an honor to be working with you almost as much as Phinny - lol.
I'm not an mtm2 oldtimer --- yet. hehe.

sans - BDogge's new word?

ZOtm_BigDOGGe · Post by **ZOtm_BigDOGGe** » Sat Jul 05, 2003 10:56 pm

Just make them bigger than a stock truck, and ZOON will resize as necessary to fit the track

For instance, a drinking glass may be made 20 feet tall....If need, he can resize it to 60 feet tall.

Send ZOON an email to ask if he needs any more models, so he won''t have to expose them in here......I mentioned THESE models in here because they had already been revealed before the project went "underground".

ZooN · Post by **ZooN** » Fri Jul 11, 2003 4:45 am

ch_2005 :
I'll build custom models.
Thanx a lot for your help

whats the ratio of kitchen/monster feet?
Here are the maximum sizes of the huge Monster Truck of the garage area :
width = 40
height = 490
Length = 800
Of course, if one of those values is smaller, there's no problem. Those numbers are there for reference. You absolutely don't need to respect the 3 values, but only the biggest of them on your version of the Monster Truck.

ZooN - it's an honor to be working with you .../...
You're welcome [;)]

========

Here is a slideshow program (KinuPix) build with ZooN Kitchen 2 Beta Project pictures, with comments everywhere, with a music, etc.
This program don't need to be installed and don't require any plug-in or external element. You just need to clic on "open" and it will work on all Windows based PC.
Enjoy
