X-Fools: The Spoof Is Out There is an interactive comedic 1997 video game developed by Parroty Interactive. Not to be confused with a radio show series of the same title which aired on Beacon Radio sometime during the mid-1990s.

Plot and gameplay[edit]

The game centres around two ex-FBI agents and skeptics named Mully and Scudder (parodies of X-Files protagonists Scully and Mulder) who encourage the player to undergo training as a new recruit. As such, the player is 'subjected to a deprogramming regimen' according to Business Wire, which consists of a series of games, quizzes, and skits.[3] The gameplay experience is essentially a series of minigames thematically linked to the television show The X-Files. For instance, Conspiracy Computer sees the protagonists analyse popular conspiracies, and Run, Agent, Run! sees the player evade aliens and villains from The X-Files.[4]Kill Screen described the style of the game as 'distractionware' and an 'interactive MAD Magazine.'[5]

Development[edit]

Palladium's vice president of marketing, Rob Halligan, explained that the success of Pyst paved the way for The X-Fools,[6] and noted that the game was being released at a time rife with interest in the supernatural: the news was buzzing with the 50th anniversary of the Roswell incident, the Mars Pathfinder mission, and the impending premiere of the fifth season of The X-Files.[3] Artist Tom Richmond, who had an ongoing professional relationship with Parroty Interactive, provided some of the game's illustrations.[7]Michael Donovan did voice work for the game.[8]

Release and promotion[edit]

The game's official website went live on September 16, 1997, and allowed players to access additional content, while providing a free demo for those yet to purchase the title.[9] The website held a 'Conspiracy Quest Contest' from October 31, 1997 to July 17, 1998[10] where players solved riddles relating to the concurrently airing fifth season of The X-Files,[11] with prizes (a digital camera, 2,000 acre real estate plot on Mars, and a Palladium Gift Pack) being awarded to multiple winners.[12] It also allowed players to send 'X-cards',[13] and offered players the opportunity send in X-Files questions for the developers to include in the title's trivia minigame entitled Trust No One.[14] Game modules from The X-Fools were added as bonus features on the Special Edition of Pyst in October 1997.[6]The X-Fools uses Shockwave as its game engine.[15]

The game received mixed reviews from critics upon release; Positive reviews from MacHome's Tamara Stafford and Roy Bassave of The Seattle Times suggested fans of the original series would enjoy The X-Fools.[16][4] Detractors included PC Gamer's Richard Cobbett, who negatively compared the game to Parroty's previous title Microshaft Winblows 98 (1998);[2] and Wojciech Kotas of The Mac Gamer's Ledge, which found The X-Files' self-referential humor better than the 'lukewarm,' limited, and uninspired parody of the game.[17] In 2011, The Sydney Morning Herald ranked the game 79th on its Re-Play: 100 worst games ever list, writing that it 'couldn't be unfunnier'.[18]

After installation, all Nuke applications are run from either desktop icons, the Finder, or from the Terminal using arguments.

Qualified Operating Systems

• macOS 10.12 (Sierra)

• macOS 10.13 (High Sierra)

Note:Other operating systems may work with Nuke, but have not been fully tested.

• x86-64 processor, such as Intel Core 2 Duo or later.

• 5 GB of disk space available for caching and temporary files.

Card fools mac os catalina

• At least 8 GB of RAM.

• Display with at least 1280 x 1024 pixel resolution and 24-bit color.

• Graphics card with at least 512 MB of video memory and driver support for OpenGL 2.0 (minimum requirement).

• To enable optional GPU acceleration of Viewer processing, you need OpenGL 2.0 with support for floating point textures and GLSL.

• To enable Nuke to calculate certain nodes using the GPU, there are some additional requirements. For more information, see Requirements for GPU Acceleration.

• R3D Rocket cards require the Rocket Driver 1.4.19.0 and Firmware 1.1.16.5 or later.

Note:To avoid graphical problems, such as text disappearing in the Viewer and Node Graph, it is important to keep your graphics card drivers up-to-date. Driver updates can be obtained from the websites of the graphics card manufacturers (for example, www.nvidia.com and support.amd.com).

Fools

Note:If you’re using R3D Rocket graphics card, note that using it in Nuke will most likely only be considerably faster when you’re reading in at full resolution. If you’re reading in at half resolution, for instance, using Nuke without the R3D Rocket card enabled may be faster. This is because the R3D Rocket graphics card is designed to be fast when reading in multiple frames at the same time. This is not how Nuke works internally, and therefore reads with the R3D Rocket card disabled may sometimes be faster when working in lower resolutions (< 4K widths). Note that the R3D Rocket card always produces better results than Nuke when downsampling. Also, the R3D Rocket card can only be used by one application at a time, so if you are viewing multiple Nuke scripts at once, you may only be able to use the R3D Rocket card in one.

If you want to enable Nuke to calculate certain nodes using the GPU, there are some additional requirements.

NVIDIA

• An NVIDIA GPU with compute capability 2.0 (Fermi) or above. A list of the compute capabilities of NVIDIA GPUs is available at:
www.nvidia.co.uk/object/cuda_gpus_uk.html.

Note:The compute capability is a property of the GPU hardware and can't be altered by a software update.

Graphics drivers capable of running CUDA 8.0 & 6.5 or above. On Mac, the CUDA driver is separate from the NVIDIA graphics driver and will need to be installed, if you don't have it already. The minimum requirement is driver version r361 which can be downloaded from www.nvidia.com/drivers.

Note:If your computer enters sleep mode, the CUDA drivers cannot recover and you must restart Nuke to use GPU acceleration.

Card Fools Mac Os X

Tip:We recommend using the latest graphics drivers, where possible.

• an AMD FirePro GPU on late 2013 Mac Pro 6,1, mid 2015 MacBook Pro 11,5, and late 2016 MacBook Pro 13,3, running OS X 10.9.3 'Mavericks', or later (see below and the Blink API documentation for caveats on CPU/GPU result consistency on Mac Pros).

Mac GPUs

Nuke supports GPU-enabled nodes on the late 2013 Mac Pro 6,1, mid 2015 MacBook Pro 11,5, and late 2016 MacBook Pro 13,3 (running OS X 10.9.3 'Mavericks', or later), including an Enable multi-GPU support option. When enabled in the preferences, GPU processing is shared between the available GPUs for extra processing speed.

Note: To ensure you get the best performance from OpenCL GPUs on your Mac, we recommend updating Mavericks to 10.9.5, or above for full functionality. However:

If you're running an earlier version of Mac OS X than 10.9.5 and processing images greater than 4 mega pixels resolution, VectorGenerator, Kronos, and MotionBlur do not support GPU acceleration.

If you're running an earlier version of Mac OS X than 10.9.4, Kronos and MotionBlur do not support GPU acceleration.
