Transformers: The Game

At first the enter key worked in the main menu of that PC game, but then it stopped. I press both "enter" keys on my keyboard, but none of them works and I can't choose anything. However generally they are workable, I checked them in MS Word. Wonder what happened. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.132.14.38 (talk) 13:40, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Is there a question? --24.249.108.133 19:21, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

There's usually an .INI file somewhere in the game directory that lists all the keys and what their functions in the game are. Search for "enter" in there and see if it's been changed.Froglars the frog 10:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

NIRVANA / KURT COBAIN

What Shoe was Kurt wearing when he died? What was Kurt's favourite guitar? Where is he buried?

According to [1], he was cremated, with ashes scattered in the Wishkah river. I am told he favoured the Fender Mustang guitar, though he also designed his own. No idea on the shoe front, except that according to Kurt Cobain, he was wearing two of them. Algebraist 15:51, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the shoes were Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars. --Canley 06:31, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Public domain

I know the rules for written text, is there anything I need to keep in mind when I'm checking if a film is in the public domain? - Mgm|^(talk) 19:22, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to assume you're talking about US Law. See Public_domain#Expiration and the section below it. I believe the rules are the same regardless of medium. - Zepheus <ゼィフィアス> 21:25, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
