If you missed previous years, you missed out on great weekends. If you made it out you know what I am talking about. There are some great changes coming to the event again this year, like the fact that it is fully sponsored by Intel. So signup @ massivelan.com and stay tuned. Tournaments are are already posted and the schedule is also up. http://massivelan.com/mlp012-signup https://lanfest.inte...er&eventid=1903 MLP'012 When? July 6th, 7th, 8th. Doors open at 9am Friday. Cleanup will be 5pm Sunday. Where? At the Erie County Fairgrounds in Hamburg, NY. THIS YEAR IS DIFFERENT FROM LAST YEAR. We will be at the old casino building. We will have a map and a photo gallery of the building soon! Games For a list of what games we are playing this year click here. What you NEED to bring: Your computer (don't forget all the cables, mouse/keyboard, HEADPHONES!). An ethernet cable (we have some they will be first come first serve) A signed waiver form, all ages, (under 18 section inside this pdf please read carefully!) What you SHOULD bring: Bring a chair! you will be sitting for up to 3 days bring something comfortable. Change of clothes! (there will be available shower stalls at the fairgrounds!) Money for food, drink, etc... we will have someone on hand for a few meals over the weekend at reasonable prices... burgers, hotdogs, that sort of thing. Something to sleep on... there are carpetted floors but feel free to bring a sleeping bag/air mattress. Wake up is 9am whether you like it or not. Changes from last year Our signup list requires pre payment. We simply had too many people sign up on the list and not bother to show up. This messes with our pre-planning so we ask that you pay in advance. To help allow for those of you with larger monitors or multiple display setups, we are asking an extra $10 (prepay and at door). As we have limited space and power this allows us to help compensate and get extra tables for those of you with larger needs. This also gets you a half a table of space instead of one third.

I will be there...

Epic showcases Unreal Engine 4's dynamic lighting, fast iteration capabilities "f the widespread adaptation of this generation's UE3 is any indication, this new engine will serve as the foundation for many games across many platforms, from Epic as well as external engine licensees." "The user interface is more flexible in UE4 as well, with dockable modules. As revealed last month, it implements the visual scripting editor Kismet 2, allowing even non-programmers to build interactive scenes by converting code that determines in-game objects' behaviors into interactive flowcharts with pull-down menus."
