Dear Visitors and especially News Submitters,

We are happy to announce that we have included a new feature on Warp2Search which is called "User News Channel"
What does that mean: In the past we received a lot news submissions which we could not post on this website because of the heavy amount of news submissions and we had to select the most imporant ones.
A lot of users where dissapointed why their news were not published and with the new news-channel we are able to post all news which are submitted and important.

In the main menu and in the top of the site, there is a new option: Reader News, marked with a double head icon. The most important news will be published as always on the mainsite of Warp2Search. I hope you will enjoy this new feature and that you will submit many news which are important for you and you would like to share with the readers of Warp2Search.

Still Here

Published by [PM] 0

Just a quick note for everyone reading this site that I am still working with and for this site. Me that is Rancho* a.k.a [PM]. I had and still have a lot of personal matters to sort out but I am following the development of the site and the daily news as my time allows me to. I will resume posting news and reviewing hardware and software products in the near future to keep Warp2Search alive and kickin'. This site has become part of my life but I had to pay dearly because I have lost another one in return. I hope that our loyal readers may keep in mind that there is a life beyond cyberspace and a life next to Warp2Search - this site is run by enthusiasts for the community. We are investing into the site and love to see it grow. This however also comes at a price; work becomes even more time consuming and the financial pressure keeps rising accordingly - so please don't flame us for trying out several new ways of increasing revenue such as the full screen "Interland" ad. We have some things coming up for you so stay tuned and enjoy your stay. Thanks

Warp2Search 2nd Year Anniversary

Published by [NT] 6

Yes, it's true, we already left 2 years of Warp2Search behind us and we are looking forward for many many years of Warp2Search to come.

Rancho* (Peter) and myself (Degger* a.k.a Niels) have started this site as a little personal website with some links and some similar news from what you see today. Back than a new Nvidia Detonator driver was released and we put up a local download mirror... the story somewhat had begun.

We wanted to create a site that combined the best of all: hardware & software news, driver downloads, reviews and gaming articles. Those who are regulars of our site, know that we're still trying to get closer to this vision. The hardware review part is what we are now concentrating on followed by a new cool design sometime in the future. And after all we had to realize that running a website of this proportion is not for free; we had to cut down on local downloads for this reason. We have to thank many people who helped to make this site become as large as it is today, especially our wonderful newsposters like NewsFactory, Supr3m3, BILDZeitung, Kyro, Lindz, Mark Fox and all the others who spend so much time on this site. We have got acquinted with many from the 'scene' and some have vanished with their sites along the way. Also we would like to thank our girlfriends who lost so much time because of Warp2Search.

And of course, thanks go out to you, dear visitors and webmasters of other sites for your really great support and your daily visits. Hope to see you all again in future!

Taking 'Matrix' To The Next Visual FX Level

Published by NewsFactory 0

CNN have posted an editorial entitled Taking 'Matrix' to the next FX level which looks at the development in visual effects that were used in The Matrix: Reloaded and The Matrix: Revolutions! Here's a snip.

To achieve their latest eye-popping visuals, Gaeta and company continued to push the envelope in virtual cinematography techniques and image-based rendering, mapping photographic images over 3-D wireframe models. (A more physically based-method for acquiring impossible camera moves was used to achive the original film's "bullet time.") For the "Burly Brawl" scene -- in which Neo (Keanu Reeves) battles an army of rapidly multiplying Agent Smiths (Hugo Weaving), with the camera whirling by at supersonic speed -- the technology was used to create 3-D scenes that are 100 percent computer-generated, including the actors.

Maybe some of you noticed it allready that we have re-opened our download section.
There you will find a small collection of the best software; tools, benchmarks, drivers from 'out there' which you may find useful to keep your PC running.
We don't want to open up a big database with thousands of downloads, our collection is small and handy but the most important stuff you need.

Due to bandwith limitations we are not able to host all downloads local, but if we have something special, you can expect that we open up a local mirror. Currently we are adding files to the archive.

War On Iraq - Personal Statement

Published by [PM] 21

Mr. Thomsen and myself, Mr. Mertin, the owners of this website, have observed the latest political and military developments since Wednesday with the most sincere concern. In our opinion it is a tragedy that it has come so far and that all peaceful efforts were thrown aside as the U.S. have begun their attacks. No question that a dictatorship may not be the best political system to have in a country but is that really our's to decide on? And are there not other countries in the far east that should be observed with similar concern? The United Nations Security Council has been rendered ineffective by the decision George W. Bush has made. We admit though that politics would have taken a much longer time frame. Our thoughts are with the victims of this war - Soldiers and civilians on both sides of the frontiers. Worldwide acclaimed brazilian author Paul Coelho, author of ?The Alchemist?, amongst other works, and member of the Brazilian Academy of Arts & Letters, wrote the following critical open letter to the President of the United States...

[W2S] Gaming Clan?

Published by [NT] 2

I was thinking about a small idea, if some of you people would be interested in joining a [W2S]Gaming Clan.
I had a nice talk with Zardon over @ DriverHeaven and he is offering a gaming server which our site can use some days a week.

After that we can have some nice "Site Wars".
Also we could invite some other websites so it could be fun and a nice play.
It is a multi gaming server but at first we will start with MOHAA, other games will follow.

If you are interested in joining the [W2S] Gaming clan, leave your comment and suggestions here.

Sony's Anti-War Commercial

Published by NewsFactory 0

Just spotted this @ 3DChipset.com. Now this is a hot topic? I'll just say this about the war: the sooner the people of Iraq are free, the better. Anyone that can gas his own people and watch them starve deserves what ever he gets.

Someone emailed me this, and I thought it was a very cool commercial in the message it's portraying. I think it's made by sony for the fact of the games used and the ending symbols. Either way, I'm suprise we don't see more commercials like this on TV.
