If you are playing single player or online (non-split screen) then you don't have to take any special steps. You can just go configure the controls in the game options screen. The guide I have posted was solely meant to get L4D working on a PC in split-screen mode with two Wingman controllers. I have had some problems with copying and pasting the options files from the blog for some reason, so make sure to check after you have pasted to ensure that it is all correct. I will be working on some way to link a file to make it easier. Yes, you can still get all of the controls to work.

]]> Comment on My Idea: Envirobags Borrowed for $1 Refundable Deposit… by Christine http://randomcrash.wordpress.com/2008/05/28/envirobags/#comment-44 Christine Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:58:42 +0000 http://randomcrash.wordpress.com/?p=39#comment-44 Good for you for caring about the environment. If you do have too many reuseable bags, why not take one, fold it up and place it in your purse. Or in kitchen supply stores, I've seen reuseable shopping bags that fold up into te size of a tiny package of kleenex and close with a snap button. Buy one of those and carry it in your purse. That way, you'll never caught without a bag. Your idea is a good and very different. But, ultimately, I don't think it would be successful. Just as you forget your bags at home, people will forget their deposit bags at home too, or they simply won't return them in quickly manner. Thus, stores would run out a deposit bags and have to make more. You don't want 10 reuseable shopping bags in your house, yes I agree. But Loblaws also doesn't want 10,000 deposit reuseable bags lying around their cash registers and customer service that they won't be able to sell afterwards. But more imprtantly, look at the big picture of your carbon footprint. Say you got a bag and had to return it to a store that's a 10-minute drive from your house. That's a lot of gas and emissions being released just to return one fabric bag that only costs a dollar. Not to mention your time as well. One of the fundamental ideals of caring for the environment is cutting out the excess that harms the environment. Getting another bag when you have tons at home, plus driving and burning fuel to return it seems excessive to me. Consider keeping a reuseable bag in your purse. Again, good for you for using reuseable bags. The environment thanks you. Happy Shopping :) Good for you for caring about the environment.

Perhaps armed guards? Seems a little ridiculous to even care about security on a home PC. Also I don’t know of any business that would use vista, so they are all safe right?
