texts: How does Rome: Total War change when playing as a non-Roman faction?

texts:
When playing Rome: Total War as a non-Roman faction, how is the game affected? In particular:

How do the units affect strategy? For example, are non-Roman basic infantry weaker than Roman hastati?
Is the selection of units smaller than Rome? Does it matter?
Does the game suffer from any major gameplay issues as other factions? What about if the game is modded to allow non-playable factions (like Macedon or Rebels/Slaves) to be playable?
Overall, is the game easier or more difficult?


texts: How do I successfully install Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines on Windows 7 64 bit?

texts: I am about to install Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines again and play through yet another time.  I'm running Win7 64 bit. Last time I installed it in this environment, it ran at an obscene frame rate that made it unplayable. Outside of the latest patches and community patches, is there anything I should be aware of?  Any hangups, hiccups, etc that you had to do to get it working?


texts: Is the ammo capacity bonus on squad member's ammo powers worth it? Ever?

texts: Since you squad never runs out of ammo, it seems to me like a no-brainer to pick the headshot damage over extra ammo capacity every time for your squad.  Or am I misunderstanding the wording, and the bonus actually increases clip capacity instead of spare rounds capacity?


texts: How do I switch between expansion levels?

texts: When I upgraded to Heart of the Swarm I noticed that it automatically sets Heart of the Swarm to be your default playing level when playing multiplier and ladder. How do I switched back to WoL when playing with friends without HoTs? How do I switch to WoL to do solo laddering?


texts: Why random encounters are harder when playing Baldur's Gate Tutu?

texts:
It's so benefical the fact that you can unite almost the entire saga in one game: (BG1 + TotSC) + (BG2:SoA + ToB) with the use of EasyTutu and G3 Widescreen mods.

Now, I don't remember the battles of the very beginning of the game being so.. challenging, in an unjustified way. Once I'm outside, almost everything is hard to beat, One wolf is able to kill Imoen in one bite, she has 8/8 hp.

However I remember that my brother back then used a mod that makes battles even more harder to handle, but all I installed is EasyTutu and the widescreen mod..

Does EasyTutu also make things harder? Is there a way to fix or restore the difficult of the encounters back to the original?


texts: CS:GO - How to disable the scoreboard opening?

texts:
Ok, so originally, my scoreboard wasn't showing up in-game when I pressed TAB. So, I opened the console and typed +showscores. The problem is, now, TAB doesn't hide the scoreboard and it opens up every time I respawn. I tried typing hidescores but that only works for one round.

Please help! I can't play with this.

texts: Is there a trick to execute Seth's Head Stomps?

texts:
I struggle with the execution of Seth's corner combo Spin Kicks into Head Stomps.

As the initial part of the combo does not matter lets assume I want to do this:

(corner) HK.Kicks HS HS HS DK

Kicks = Spin Kicks, HS = Head Stomp, DK = Dive Kick

Currently I press diagonally forward up after the Kicks and "guess" when to switch to down or down forward + MK. It works sometimes, but most of the time I either press down forward too fast (result: c.MK), too slow (result: whiff) or MK too fast (result: j.MK).

Is there some trick like double tapping or pliking to make this combo easier? Is there some easy way to learn the timing except just executing it over and over again?


texts: What do the powers of each character do?

texts: There are a boatload of characters in "The Cave", and I see that each one has their own special power.  However, the game doesn't really explain to you what those powers do.  Some, like the Time Traveler's teleport are pretty self explanatory - but many others like the Monk's chanting or the Knight's angel stance seem much less obvious to me.  I think it is safe to assume that all of these abilities are used to interact with objects, but I'd like an idea of what each one does - so I don't miss chances to use them.


texts: Xbox One Controller Backwards Compatibility PC

texts:
I'd like to get a gamepad for my PC; previously I've had great success with an Xbox 360 controller for the PC (the controller unfortunately is no longer with me!)

I wondered however whether a current Xbox One controller would be backwards compatible with PC games that support Xbox 360 controllers?  Or is it better to stick with an Xbox 360 controller.


texts: Borderlands 2 - Missing Documents folder - (likely) person specific problem

texts:
So i run a Windows 10 machine with a GTX 750 Ti, and a AMD FX-6300 6 core Processor. This machine WAS running with two drives. 1 120GB SSD, and 1 1TB HDD. My Documents, Pictures, and Music Folders were on the 1TB drive, and about a month ago, my 1TB drive failed. I was able to dig up an old 450GB HDD, that used to house Windows 7, on an HP Envy(not sure specific details.) Notebook. This drive has some games on it, one of which being Borderlands. There are some very OLD borderlands saves on this drive, however, borderlands cannot see them.

Now, out of the hope i will be able to recover this 1TB hard drive, i've tried my best to not modify registry values, or library locations(really anything that may make the system not run as it had before), and i think i haven't modified anything.

So now to the question. Where might Borderlands 2(Running off steam), store it's save files, if the default save location cannot be accessed?(In this case, can't be accessed because the drive is gone.)


texts: Hammer Editor - "Unexpected End of File" On Load, Reading Chunks 33%

texts:
First of all, I know questions similar to this have been answered, but yet I cannot find the solution.

I was saving my map after doing some stuff with logic entities. Upon saving, Hammer quit without any message. Upon attempted loading, Hammer comes up with "File C:...mapname.vmf, line 18838: unexpected end of file", with another window saying "Loading Chunks..." Then 33%. I have read that editing the .vmf file to add a curly bracket } at the end to close the whatever it's called. I found mine was missing one, so I added it, now when ever I open the same map it loads to 33% again, then crashes, all in under a second.

So, simply: Any solutions? Also, I am using the Hammer Editor with HL2 in the base.

It's kind of sad I have to write this one about 2 hours after my other H.E question.


texts: Is the max CP of a hatched Chansey affected by the trainer level you were when you hatched it?

texts:
I hatched a 90-IV Chansey seven months ago. My trainer level then was 10 (or maybe less?). Does hatching him at such a low trainer level affect the maximum CP? I hatched an 87-IV Chansey last month (trainer level 29).

Would the Chansey I hatched at level 29 have a higher max CP then the one I hatched at trainer level 10?


texts:
News just appeared that Sony might be reviving PocketStation soon, but what did it actually do?

texts: How do the aiming options work when in a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto V?

texts:
When in a vehicle, there are two aiming options - aim, and aim + fire. From testing, it seems like when "aim + fire" is chosen, holding down R1 on my PS4 controller automatically shoots - whereas when just "aim" is selected, both R1 and L1 must be used to shoot.

When "aim + fire" is selected, does holding down R1 automatically aim and fire at the closest target? When using "aim" only, when R1 is held do you then have the option of aiming - and if so, how can this be done? I'm totally blind, so haven't had chance to test this with somebody sighted.

Thanks for your help.

texts: Space Engineers Not Installing From Disc

texts:
(Originally from Steam Discussion:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/244850/discussions/6/618453594741594824/)

I got the retail version of Space Engineers (Limited Edition) and put it into my computer. The instruction sheet that came with the game says that when I open the menu there should be some installation instructions. The only options that came up were "Redeem Steam Key", "Install Miner Wars", "Artwork" and "Soundtrack". I have redeemed the steam key, but there is no option to install it. Is there a way to do it from the disc, or do I have to download it?

EDIT: I have tried both ways of installing from disc (Using the "Run [Windows Function]" feature and the "Restore From Disc [Steam Function]") but both do not work. Trying to do it with "Run" just opens steam, does nothing else. But using "Restore", I cannot do it as it says there is no back-up. Is Space Engineers a game that HAS to be downloaded?


texts: I've tried building a mob spawner in my house. It's on cobblestone, completely made of cobblestone, 2x2 tunnel width and a 32x32 at the top, 5 blocks high, completely dark. Nothing spawns up there though. How can I get it to work?

texts: I'm playing fallout shelter, I accidentally left a dweller exploring the wasteland for to long, and he died. He had a pet, and when my dweller died his pet started coming back to the vault. I was just wondering, (because it's taking ages for the pet to come back), does the pet bring back what the dweller found before he died?

texts:
My Eviscerate skill currently says:

  Inflicts 88% of Weapon DPS

Let's not take into account the extra DoT effect that this skill does.

Does that mean that attacking with this skill actually does less damage than attacking normally? Does it mean that it deals 88% of the total average damage I would deal per second in a single hit (this would make it a slight damage bonus, depending on my attack speed)?

Overall, what exactly does htis 88% represent?


texts: What's the most efficient order in which to check for discrepancies?

texts: One of the first things that I try to notice is gender, then necessary documents, then picture, then issuing city, then expiration date. I don't think I've seen the second half of the game, so I also wonder if new conditions could change that order. I know a condition is added that involves checking faces even before checking the face in the passport, so an answer would note checking this before the passport but also noting that it isn't necessary at first until what condition is added.

texts: How to safely destroy silverfish blocks?

texts: So, silverfishes are really hard to hit and they tend to mob and overwhelm the player. The sword approach is very ineffective. On top of that, sometimes we need to dig through mountain biomes, which do spawn silverfish ores. How to safely destroy the silverfish blocks instead of avoiding them?


texts: Why does this trick on the Arch-vile work?

texts: In this video at 3:40, the maker of the video explains that hiding on the opposite side of a tall wall while an Arch-vile blasts you causes you to only take 20 damage, which is the damage dealt directly from the hit. But why does this trick negate the explosion damage? Also, why doesn't the trick work when you stand on the same side of the wall as the Arch-vile?


texts: Steam and Teamspeak not connecting, but internet in general is working fine?

texts:
So I logged on today, and realized Teamspeak was not connecting to the server I log on to every day. I had also realized Steam was having a tough time connecting to the internet, and I have no idea what's happening.

I tried restarting my router with the expectation it would work, it didn't.
I have no new antivirus programs
Firewall was turned off for about 2 hours, I tried again and no result.
Pinged Google.com, got an average approximate round trip time of 65 ms.

No errors were given when trying to connect to Steam or Teamspeak.

The funny thing about this is that all functions are carried out normally that require internet. Everything else that requires internet works just fine.

I have another machine (a laptop) that runs Teamspeak and Steam just fine, so I'm guessing it could be something to do with the connection specifically on my primary machine?

Edit (3/4/15): Tried using Windows troubleshooting and it couldn't identify that anything was wrong. I have absolutely no clue what to do.


texts: How does the first time multiplayer bonus work?

texts:
Every time I do a multiplayer mission, I get a first time bonus.

Is this because it's the first time I did a multiplayer mission on a certain stage? Or is it tied into playing with specific people for the first time?

How exactly does this work?

texts: What is the point of Lester's "Locate a car"?

texts:
As the title says, what's the point of Lester locating a car for you?  It's the same vehicle, in the same place every time for me (an ATV at the race track).

I've seen suggestions that it's so that you can get a vehicle that's not stolen, but if you have to go to a specific place to pick it up then it's pointless.  I may as well just go to my garage and get a car there.

I was (as were most people) under the incorrect impression that you would be able to specify what car type you were looking for, which would be great for collecting high value cars for Simeon, so it's disappointing.

Or am I missing something?


texts: Does anything special happen if I transfer a Pokémon from RSE to ORAS?

texts:
I've recently come across two fanmade comics which depict the player character of Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald trading one of their Pokémon to FireRed/LeafGreen, then transferring it to Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, which is then traded to HeartGold/SoulSilver, Black/White, Black2/White2, X/Y, and finally back to OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire.

When this happens, we get a heartwarming scene with the Pokémon being reunited with his original trainer.

Watching those comics made me wonder if anything special would happen if a Pokémon were transferred all the way from RSE to ORAS. Since I never owned any 3rd-gen game, I can't verify this for myself.

Here are the two comics:

May & Jirachi
Brendan & Delcatty

How do I generate turns in a Hardcore Oxygenarian run so I don't take twelve years to finish it?


texts: What changes have been made from Civilization 4 to 5?

texts:
I've read the surprisingly light Wikipedia article on Civ 5 and it seems to be lacking coherent comparison of features between it and its predecessor. I'm also reluctant to bring down the 4Gb demo on a whim...

Please could I have some clarification on the following:

Has the speed of conquest been slowed down even further?
Are wars any easier to end (and avoid re-igniting) diplomatically?
Are there still culture-related borders?
Is the AI as aggressive as the article seems to indicate, or is it possible to have stable diplomatic neighbours?
This one's rather subjective, I'm afraid: With regards to improvements, is this an XP to Vista kind of upgrade, or Vista to 7? By which I mean are they generally look driven, or core gameplay driven improvements?

Let me know if this should be a community wiki, or needs clarification.


texts:
Does anyone have a consistent way of getting Mireille's/Gatekeeper's missions in Chapter 9? (Ie. "The Price of Thievery" and "Shear's Counterattack")? Every guide I've read online contradicts another one.

I followed the steps in PowerPyx's guide on my first playthrough:

Sam Dialogue (Chocobo Cowboy): When describing Tifa to him pick “She’s great at handling the books”.
In Wall Market, don’t talk to the guy in front of the hotel and don’t talk to the hotel receptionist.
In Wall Market, Ignore the Johnny Discovery Event (where he runs away) and head straight for the main objective.
When Sam does the coin flip, pick “Heads”.
Pick the most expensive massage “Luxury Course – 3000 Gil”
When Aerith asks how you like her outfit “Looks comfortable”.

PowerPyx is usually pretty reliable, but I follow these instructions and I did NOT get the alternative missions. On my next playthrough I just picked the following options:

She's in great shape
Didn't talk to the hotel people
Ignored Johnny
Heads
Luxury
Alright

And I still didn't get the alternative missions. I'm about to start my third and I don't know what to select... :(

IGN's  guide says:

Do not participate in Sam's coin toss
Choose the Expensive Massage Course

Gamerant's guide says:

Choose "No deal" during Sam's coin toss.
Receive the "Luxury" from Madam M.
Say "It matter what I think?" or "Looks comfortable" when asked about Aerith's dress.
Complete the Vagabond Johnny discovery side quest.

Another guide says:

Hotel guy: How much?
Sam: Tails
Massage: Luxury
Outfit: It matter what I think?

Yet another says:

Don't talk to the hotel guy
Sam: Heads
Massage: Luxury
Outfit: Comfortable

Surely someone knows the 100% definitive way to unlock them properly? All evidence seems to suggest it's completely random? Thanks.


texts: I don't like Hell, can I go somewhere else?

texts:
I just opened a nether portal for the first time, and I must say, it's not a very good location, a sort of narrow trench/cavern thingy without any obvious clues as to which direction is "out".

I'm not willing to simply move my overworld portal (due to dilation it is unlikely to have much of an effect, anyway), and was wondering if there was a way to force minecraft to generate a new personal Hell for me to explore (hopefully one that doesn't involve me stuck in some wall!).

I've been playing Robot Unicorn Attack 2 on Android, and am quite confused by the jumping and dashing combos, and when I can use them. For example, with a standard robot unicorn:

Jump > Jump > Jump - I cannot jump anymore.

Jump > Jump > Dash > Jump > Jump - I get four jumps?

Jump > Jump > Jump > Dash > Jump > Dash > Jump > Dash > Jump - 6 Jumps!

Jump > Dash > Dash - And I'm done.

How do jump and dash combos work? I would like to stay in the air for as long as possible, as hoops multiply your score until you touch the ground.


texts: What attacks can I block with the Paladin's Omni-Shield without taking damage?

texts:
The N7 Paladin class has a special Omni-Shield that can block incoming attacks, at least until it breaks. When fully upgraded, the shield has 5,250 points of health.

I'm curious if it's worth spending points to upgrade the shield to max health. On Gold and Platinum difficulties, can a fully upgraded Omni-Shield block the following attacks without the player taking normal shield and health damage? I don't care if the shield ends up breaking and staggering the player, as long as no damage is taken to normal shields and health.

A single rocket from a Geth Rocket-Trooper?
A single laser shot from a Collector Praetorian? What about for the full volley? (I think it fires twice in a single volley, right?)
A projectile volley from an un-possessed Collector Scion arm cannon (meaning all three shots in the volley). I don't mean the occasional grenade that it throws, just the pulse shots.
What about the possessed version (is there a damage difference)?
A projectile volley from a Geth Prime?
A rocket shot from a Cerberus Atlas?
A projectile volley from a Reaper Ravager?

I started playing on an xbox 360 that was not connected to the internet and created a local profile, figuring that I could get around to associating that local account with my xbox live account at a later time (which i have used in the past on the PC, just not a console).

However, it seems that there is no way to make that profile associate with an existing xbox live account. I only have the option to create a new account, or download an existing one.

Am I not going to be able to use my old xbox live profile, if I want to keep the saved games and achievements from my local account? Basically I just want the saved games from the local account accessible from the xbox live account.

I am currently playing through the Arma 3 campaign and within the first few missions i noticed that my squad seem to be suicidal.

Why is the friendly AI so awful? it makes gunfights almost impossible because the enemy AI stick to strict cover rules or are in the better positions where as my squad stand in front of the cover and just get shot.

Before someone asks me to change the title i would like to add that on 3 occassions multiple members of my squad have walked off of a cliff or from a high place, injuring or killing themselves(thus Lemmings)(I also know that real lemmings don't do that)(thanks disney)

Is there a way to make the Friendly AI smarter?

texts: Is it possible to fill abandoned buildings in SimCity?

texts:
In a new SimCity, sometimes buildings get abandoned, and I wonder if I should destroy and rebuild them, or there is a way to naturally fill them back up. I understand when the building is abandoned due to unchecked fire etc., but sometimes the higher wealth house can get abandoned if I had to cut services to survive hard times, so I do not see this kind of property as so dilapidated people cannot return when the land value goes up again.

Also, I had advisor warn me that simply destroying the building adds to contamination to the soil, which isn’t good either.

texts: How can you saturate mineral fields effectively?

texts:
I know that you should have 3 workers on each mineral to harvest it most effectively, but how can you manage how many workers you have to use per base?

The number should obviously be 3 x mineral patch, but how can you easily keep track of that quantity? How can you re-build them (reaching again optimum quantity) after some of them being killed? If some patches are depleted, how can you easily transfer some of them to an expansion (leaving some to finish off the ones that are not depleted)? When you expand, should you build workers from that base once it finishes building or transfer some from the main base?

I think that with those questions I'm asking for a drone/SCV/probe guide.

texts:
I want to be able to use a target selector to select all of a player's tamed wolves. It's easy to do that with this target selector:

@e[type=wolf,nbt={"OwnerUUID":"<Player UUID>"}]

When I try to use the JSON selector string to specify the UUID like this:

@e[type=wolf,nbt={"OwnerUUID":{"selector":"@p"}}]

the selector string returns the nearest player's name. The OwnerUUID data value of the wolf obviously requires a UUID. Is there a potential workaround for this?


texts: Does the Interceptor have an advantage over the Deliverator?

texts:
The car, Interceptor, is unlocked after the Deliverator. In all the other cases, the car unlocked after the previous one is better overall or has a max stat that is better than the previous.

However, all of the Interceptor's max stats are either equal or less than the Deliverator's. The Interceptor has 6, 4, 2  max stats in speed, handling and armor respectively, compared to the Deliverator's 6, 5, 4.

Disregarding the stats, does the Interceptor have another advantage over the Deliverator?

Do any of the modifiers on Rare monster packs trigger thorns?

Does thorns replicate to your follower or from your follower's gear to you?

texts: Skyrim Dragonborn DLC possible leveling bug

texts:
Some of the following might contain spoilers regarding the main questline in the Dragonborn expansion.

In the Dragonborn expansion, there is an instance where one enters Hermaeus Mora's realm after reading the Black Book obtained in the dwermer ruins in Solstheim, and is commanded to read throughout his chapters. While doing this quest, I was level 61. When I finished all chapters, I met Hermaeus Mora and had a little chat, and it ended with me choosing one of the three Dragonborn flames. I choose that which enhances my Fus Ro Dah shout, and was then sent back to the ruins. After a chat with the conjurer, I noted I had level up, but all the way to level 81! Thus, I got 20 perks.

Is this a bug? Is this Mora's gift? On a side note, is it possible to obtain more perk points to spend?

It's night in the game and I'd rather look for Seabiscuit when I can see him and avoid stal-monsters.
If the taming attempts do stack, does it refresh every in-game day? That would be a pain.

texts: Is there a way to get both sets of loot at the end of the mysterious car park?

texts:
I'm at the end of the multi-story car park located at the Milton General Hospital. There is a trap/decision where it transpires that I must pick one set of loot, while the other one is incinerated. Given the tricksy nature of the heavily booby-trapped car park, I was wondering if there's a secret method that allows you to get both sets of loot. For reference, I'm talking about this area:

There is a button on each side which opens the respective door, while the loot in the other room is destroyed by a flamethrower and a bomb.
Can I get all the loot?
Edit: I've found that the left-hand flamethrower trap can be disabled from the outside and the right-hand bomb can be shot without damaging the loot. However, Bethesda has craftily decided that the left-hand bomb cannot be shot from outside while the right hand-flamethrower cannot be disabled from the outside. Could this fact hold the secret?

texts: As terran, what are the most common techniques to block off the entrance ramp to your base?

texts:
There are many different arrangements of structures or units that can be used to block off the entrance to a base to prevent a zealot push or zergling rush. The obvious answer is barracks and a supply depot, but I've also seen people barricade their entrance ramps with all supply depots, or with bunkers.

If barracks are being used, the direction of the ramp and other factors makes a difference, since placing the barracks in the wrong place can prevent you from building add-ons later on.

What are the most common techniques used for positioning an early-game terran ramp barricade, and how does the ramp direction (or cliff edge) and the information you get from scouting influence it?

Before you jump to conclusions, I've tried to solve this before asking.

texts: Getting rid of water on the lower levels

texts:
I want to build a deep fortress downwards multiple levels and I want to have water accessible on almost all levels. Optimally, I'd like to build a misting waterfall that falls down my entire fortress. I'm doing this by diverting a river to my fortress.

However, how do I get rid of all the water flowing down after it has reached the bottom? Are there any creative ways other than building a huge pump tower that brings it back to the surface again.

Any sort of enclave is likely to get full after a while. Chasms do not exist as such anymore I hear. It was said somewhere, that making a tunnel to the edge of the map will allow the water to flow "off-map" and disappear but that's almost cheating.

So, any ideas?

It vaguely seems like I ought to be able to lure the cranky guard away by mentioning the lady on the road to Barness who has a crush on him, but that option doesn't seem to come up so it's probably not the right way to go.

So, what do I do next? Is there a path somewhere that I'm missing?

I was at a LAN party at one of my friends house last night where we played 50+ custom game matches. Mainly Infection.

After every matches was over, me and only one of my other buddies got only 50 or less credits. While the other 7 people in the group got 100 - 1000 credits every match. I was top player on several occasions and still only got 50 or less credits. I even had more medals in a few matches compared to my friends that were getting more points.

I figure there may be a glitch because me and the one other buddy were on a separate hub than the rest of the group, but we still played the matches just fine.

Why was I not receiving 100-1000 credits like everyone else?

texts: Comprehensive list of network ports used by popular games and platforms

texts:
I'm a network administrator at a small residential college.  Right now our firewall is set to have all network ports open by default, with a few exceptions.  Unfortunately, bittorrent traffic has grown to the point where it kills our gateway server and I have no choice but to block it (I really would prefer not to).  The only way to block bittorrent is to have ports closed by default.

Before I do this, I want to make sure that I don't take down xbox live, steam, playstation network, and games like call of duty, etc as collateral damange.  This will end up leaving enough ports open that some bittorrent traffic still works - if you're really determined to get that latest black eyed peas song you'll be fine, but if you want to download (and share) every hip hop album or major software release in the last six months you'll have trouble. But it should restrict it enough that it no longer causes stability problems for the gateway, and of course also allow games.

I can handle other network service ports well enough, but I don't want to spend the rest of my career maintaining a list of network ports used for gaming.  So where I can find a good, maintained list of these ports, preferably with an rss feed for changes, additions, etc?


texts: How can I emulate keyboard and mouse commands with a game controller?

texts:
Some programs exist to allow you to use game console controllers (such as the Xbox 360 controller, or my usb-connected SNES pads and dual-shocks) to play games that don't support controllers natively. This can really help if the keyboard and mouse give you RSI, or the game was originally designed for use on a console.

I'm currently using ControlMK. It works (mostly), although sometimes one of the analog sticks and/or some of the buttons will not work once you are actually inside the game, and the configuration can be very complicated. Plus it doesn't work with every controller, nor every game (probably the game's fault, to be fair)

I'm trying out joytokey and considering getting xpadder, which at least has pictures to help figure out what maps to what, at least for supported controllers.

So to summarise, How can I easily setup different game controllers to work for multiple games by emulating the keyboard/mouse?

texts: What is the best obtainable gear in Heavy Armor, Light Armor and Clothing?

texts:
There seems to be 3 general categories of gear in Skyrim: Heavy Armor, Light Armor, and Clothing. These seem to (roughly) correspond with the three class archetypes of warrior, thief, and mage.

In Elder Scrolls games, finishing quests to get rare artifacts is generally a good way to get uber-powerful equipment. Another very effective way is to enchant armor and weapons yourself, and as a bonus you generally don't need to leave town for more than a few materials. In Skyrim, crafting your own now seems to be a very viable option.

What is the most powerful (by AR or damage) user-crafted gear, and how would one obtain it? I assume crafting skill bonuses would be required for smithing and enchanting; how would you attain these bonuses?

I created a copying job for my Hobgoblin I blueprint, using one of my Advanced Mobile Laboratories (with the copying speed bonus) - this is set to take the blueprint from the Corporate Hangar "Ammunition and Charges", where the original blueprint lives, and then deliver the output to the same hangar;

Once the job has finished, I deliver it to the destination hangar;

However, inside that hangar, only the original blueprint arrives;

Where did the blueprint copies I just made go?


texts:
I would like to get 'beat medium AI in 5 minutes' achievement. Usually I am playing as terran.

Is there special SMALL (TINY) map for that? What is strategy for that? Should I build 1st barrack on opponents base? Should I play some special race against another special?

Any thoughts are welcome.

Thanks.


texts: How can I configure a gamepad in Planetside?

texts:
Recently I downloaded the Original Planetside. I want to use my logitech dual action gamepad with it, however, I can't seem to configure the buttons on the controller in game. Particularly, I went to the joystick menu in the game and was able to set the left thumb stick to look up, down, left, right and the other thumbstick to strafe left and right. The drop downs only provided options to select the 2 axis's on the left thumbstick and the horizontal axis on the right. I wasn't able to configure any of the controller buttons. They do appear to be detected by the game, as they light up in the settings menu when I press the corresponding button. However, I cannot map them to any game function.

This is an old game, others are bound to have done this successfully. Also, this is one of the most common models of gamepads for pc gaming. Has anyone successfully confured this, and could they provide a tutorial on how.

Update:
This is a recent screenshop of the in game menus. The issue where one of the joystick's axis did not appear in the drop down seems to have resolved itself. However, I am still at a loss in how to configure certain controls to the gamepad. I can configure strafing and the direction the camera points to the joysticks, but I still can't find how to set forward and backward movements to the joysticks.


texts: What causes pig men to turn into Werepigs?

texts: I visited my local pig village during the day to find the last pig man being slaughtered by three werepigs. I have no idea where they came from. I ran for it but couldn't get away from all three. I've seen them transform when fed monster meat and during the full moon, but don't know of any way for three to appear in a pig village during the day, but obviously want to avoid similar confrontations in the future. What caused the Werepigs to appear?


texts:
In the Commodore and coin-op days, the joystick was the controller, with occasionally the trackball (for Marble Madness) and the paddle (for pong and similar concepts, e.g. Arkanoid). The use of the joystick remained alive in Amiga, and with the analogic joystick to some PC games.

Then suddenly the joystick disappeared, replaced by the gamepad. For the SNES/PSX era, joystick was simply a relic of the past. With the PS2, the thumbstick appeared, as a comeback to the joystick advantages, but still within an acceptable size.

My questions is: why did the full-stick joystick disappear?

Additional "opinion question": Would you be able to envision playing your games today with a full-stick joystick controller?


texts: The GUI has two buttons on the lower right hand side of the screen, one closes all doors on the ship, and the other has two functions. If clicked once, the Open Doors Button opens all internal doors, if clicked again it opens the external doors flushing the ships oxygen into space. Is there some way to lock one or multiple doors, so that I can double-click the Open Doors Button and have every door on the ship open except the locked ones?


texts:
I'm flying out into the unknown corners of the galaxy to explore, I've come across a star marked "Unexplored". I remembered that pointing my ship at it should make me scan it (I have detailed surface and advanced scanners) and then I should discover it, right? And it'd have my name by it as "discovered" I thought...

Didn't work. Flew closer and closer and eventually dropped out of Hypercruise and had to run away before my ship fried.

How can I scan a star?

texts: Why would my cities go into a demand loop for luxury resources?

texts:
Every so often, your cities will want a luxury item and if they get it, they will enter
"We love the king day". Is it normal for multiple cities to demand the same resource? 4 of my cities wanted Ivory, so when I got it, they were happy. Then they all wanted gems. So they got gems and were happy. Then for the next few thousand years I was in perpetual king day because they were always demanding gems and ivory, which I had. Is this normal? Is this a glitch/exploit? Ivory and gems were the only thing that they were asking for.


texts: Do certain player actions (e.g. reading spellooks, sorting/BUC testing, trying on armor, etc.) trigger monster generation?

texts: Maybe I'm just seeing a correlation where there is just coincidence, but it seems that whenever my characters try to read spellbooks, they get interrupted by a newly generated monster (actually, it also happens when BUC testing at altars a/o trying on multiple armor items). I understand that these actions take time, but when I've wandered empty levels for very long periods without generation, I sometimes disrobe or just load/unload my containers and sure enough...  Is there a trigger, or some sort of chance enhancement really happening?  Or, am I just imagining things?


texts: How can I collect this orb container thing in Archaea, Cave III?

texts: How do I select Mission Control? (Tutorial)

texts:
I'm playing through the tutorial for XCOM.

I've just told the Research Labs to build the alien zapper, and it tells me to "go to mission control".

However, I keep clicking on the button and nothing happens. I've tried reloading the game; but it just doesn't seem to respond to any input (though sound, etc. plays fine).

I just keep pressing that "Mission Control" button, but it doesn't do anything and I can't go "back" to the main view.

What can I do?

texts: Are golden cards counted when mass disenchanted? If so, are they or the normal versions disenchanted first?

texts:
When you have 3 or more cards of one type, it is recommended to disenchant extra cards to gain extra dust, and there is no reason to as per this question. When you open many packs at once, it is much easier to go to the "Mass disenchant" section of the collection where it automatically disenchants the duplicate cards.

My question pertaining to this: Are golden cards considered duplicates or do they make regular cards duplicates, causing them to show up as an extra card when Mass Disenchanting? If so, are the golden cards thrown out first or do the regular cards go first?


texts: Why does my Technic Launcher crash when play any modpacks?

texts:
When I open Technic and my favorite modpack is either Hexxit or the other one with rockets (I forgot the name), I can only play it for 7 minutes at the most before it lags REALLY bad and then crashes.

I only have 32 bit java though. My computer is normally pretty fast after I get completely logged on.

Why does technic keep crashing? Could it be because I only have 32 bit java?

texts: How can I keep using DLCs purchased on an old account with my new account?

texts:
I have made a new Playstation Network (PSN) account for a fresh start. I know you can't delete a PSN account, so I deactivated it, but all my Batman: Arkham Origins DLCs are still on my previous account. I do not want to create a new user and use my previous account on it because I don't want to have a useless user.

Is is it worth me making a new account for those dlcs?


texts: Is there any benefit to being top of the training scoreboards during the "Atlas" campaign mission?

texts:
During the second mission of campaign mode, "Atlas", there is a section where you have to do a couple of training exercises - Firearms and Grenades - and a third optional exercise on the Sentry Drone. (I am not 100% sure there are not any other optional exercises hidden around the level)

Each of the exercise areas has a scoreboard somewhere near by. Depending on what score you get, you will be ranked on the scoreboard.

Does your position on the scoreboard have any effect/benefit?

One thing that I do know is that your score doesn't seem to carry over when you replay the mission. After I completed the game I went back to look for missed Intel and I noticed I wasn't any any of the scoreboards. I know for sure I was 1st on the Sentry Drone exercise (that was the only scoreboard I noticed on my first play through)

Update:

I know there are two related trophies/achievements to getting "Excellent" on Firearms and/or Grenades. But you do not need to be top to get "Excellent", and then there is also the query about the Sentry Drone training exercise.

Update 2:

I read somewhere (I forgot where now) that being top of the leader boards is required to open up another area later on in the level where you obtain one of the intels. I have obtained all intels, and I was top of all 3 at the time, but I cannot say for sure that the area wouldn't have been available anyway. Can anyone confirm this?

texts: Legend of Zelda: Can eating Dubious Food hurt you?

texts: In Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild, the description for "Dubious Food" says "Eating it won't hurt you, though....probably". I don't think I've ever been hurt by eating it and I've eaten maybe 15 of them. Given that it gives you a full heart, which is quite a lot given that you can make it from just a single common monster part and makes it ideal for cheaply replenishing yourself. Does anyone have any experience where eating it has hurt your character?


texts:
When I go to changes forms, sometimes Dark Sora appears instead of the form I wanted. It's annoying as if I had 5 Drives stored and I used Master which only takes 4 Dark Sora will consume all Drives so I'm back to 0, it's also a pain when I am trying to grind levels for my forms and Dark Sora appears wasting the opportunity I had.

So I am wondering what triggers Dark Sora.

texts: Why won't the game detect my Xbox 360 controller anymore?

texts:
SSFIV:AE suddenly decided to stop detecting my Xbox 360 controller, while it's always been working out of the box.
What I tried, so far:

uninstall the game (by removing local game files) and install it again
unplug/replug the controller

Any idea ?


texts: In over 300 games of Dota 2, I have yet to see a dual lane mid. I've seen a few competitively, but it seems the default for matchmaking games is 2-1-2, 2-1-1+J or the occasional trilane. Dual lane mid makes a lot of sense to me, since it allows one hero to grab runes and/or go ganking while the other stays to farm/gain solo XP.

texts: Is there a way to fix my Minecraft SMP map?

texts:
Due to the change in the world generation method, I went and found a map seed that was suitable for using MCEdit to paste our old structures into it.  The only problem is, there is a region around spawn (which I moved a ways from the original staring position using the editor) that is completely uneditable.

Blocks can neither be mined nor placed
Doors don't function properly (door splits between the top half and lower half, changes randomly when interacted)
Chests won't open.

Immediately outside that area, though, everything behaves fine.  I don't know if the behavior is limited to a particular chunk or not.  Could deleting something like session.lock work?  Maybe a file permissions issue?  Currently no one is using the server yet and have a backup of the world, so I should be able to fiddle with it with no risk.

Other info:

Minecraft 1.0.0
Vanilla server (no mods)

Any ideas?

texts: What are the limits of the Thin Man's poison spit?

texts:
The Thin Men in XCOM: Enemy Unknown are an enemy type that have proven to be quite a nuisance -- even early on in the campaign -- due to their ability to spit poison.  Thin Men usually don't seem to travel alone, and in my own personal experience, they seem to use the poison spit ability fairly often, especially if several XCOM soldiers are clustered together.

I know that there are options that a player can pursue to make their soldiers immune to poison, such as certain armor types or carrying a Medikit.  However, in my campaigns, I cannot discern what the limits are of this ability.

They never seem to miss when using it.
It affects my soldiers even when they are taking cover, and
The most annoying aspect of it is that there seems to be no
maximum range for their spitting ability.

So, what are the limits of the poison spit ability?

Is there a maximum range that the Thin Men can use this ability?
Are there any forms of cover that can block or mitigate this attack?  Do the Thin Men need to be able to see you in order for them to perform this attack, or do they always know where you are?  Is there a limit to the number of times each Thin Man can use the poison spit ability?

texts: Loaded up minecraft save game, and I'm inside rock?

I just loaded up my most recent save in Minecraft, and I appear to be underground, inside some rocks. I've seen this before a couple times (eg, the bug when exiting a cart), or when under falling sand. I'm quickly losing health, and in the couple of seconds that the game has been loaded, I haven't seen anything but the grey rock texture. I've tried jumping and moving to no avail.

Is there a way to respawn without losing everything I'm carrying with me? Is there anything that I need to do to prevent this from happening again?


texts: What are the pros and cons of digital vs physical games for the Nintendo Switch?

texts:
There are currently two options for getting new games:

Buy a physical copy
Buy a digital one

It seems that the pricing is the the same, so to me it seems that the digital one is better; you don't have to bother with a physical copy, needing to swap cartridges, and risking losing the game.

I am probably forgetting some key elements here, so is there something I overlooked?


texts: Can a 'chance to catch' percentage be calculated with the color of the circle?

texts:
It is known that the color of the circle represents if the pokemon is currently hard or easy to catch.

But can that color be converted to a cold, hard number?

Like if it's all the way green, is it always, let's say, a 90% catch rate. And when it's all the way red, 1%?

PS because of the tought that this is a duplicate of Does CP determine the aggressiveness of a wild Pokemon?

Not talking about the aggressiveness of the Pokemon. I'm talking about catch rate. If I would be to throw and touch with 100 PokeBalls to that pokemon, how many would break open and how many would catch.
This Question has also no relation to CP. I already noticed that the CP has no effect on the color of the circle. I've seen some very low CP (20-40 CP) pokemon with a red circle before. For those wondering, I would say evolved forms have usually harder catchrates compared for the same CP.
The question is basically is there a constant between the color of the cicle and the catch rate of the pokemon. Like I said before, would a green circle pokemon always stay in 90 pokeballs out of 100, and would a red circle pokemon stay in only 5 pokeballs out of 100. Looking for probabilities here.


texts: What is "Guards killed on horseback" for guild challenges?

texts:
One of the Guild Challenges for the Mercenary's Guild in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood states:

  25 Guards killed while on horseback

Does this mean I need to kill 25 guards while I am on a horse, or kill 25 guards while they are on a horse?

I tried testing both but the counter seemed to increment way less than the number of each type that I killed, so I'm not sure if I'm missing some special requirement.

Example:

Cleave: Swing in a wide arc to deal 120% weapon damage to the targeted enemy and 60% weapon damage to any other enemies caught in the swing.

Rupture(Cleave Rune): Enemies slain by this attack have a 100% chance to explode, causing 150 physical damage to all other enemies within 19 yards.

Once I kill an enemy and he explodes and kills an enemy will that enemy explode as well creating a chain reaction, or is it only the enemy that is directly slain by the cleave that will explode?

Are there any others? What about the DLCs/expansions?


texts: How do I create an inactivity timeout device?

texts:
I want a redstone circuit which has one input (or an arbitrary number of ORed inputs, but I can wire that up myself), one output, and where the output is on whenever the input is on as well as a for a long time delay (say, two minutes) after the output turns off. The input turning on during that period should reset the delay.

I'm generally familiar with logic circuits, but I'm looking for something which will be efficient in the redstone used, as I have little stock and want to get this built before doing lots more mining.

What comes to mind is either a very long delay line (with parallel wiring to reset it fast) or, more likely, a binary counter which is reset by the input and stops (and turns off the output) at a specific value. But I don't know about good designs for a compact counter — I haven't worked with flip-flops at all.

texts: Does the Book of Ryu lock rewards if you don't max it before the next volume starts?

texts:
In the original .hack//G.U the Books of Ryu had unlockable rewards like Wallpapers and BGMs for the in-game desktop, like that of the original .hack games.

like the original .hack Games when you beat one Volume you could then import your save data into the next Volume retaining items, levels and Book of Ryu Progress and rewards. But in G.U if you didn't get all of the rewards from the Book of Ryu for that volume and in the next volume unlocked that reward you'd get a cash reward rather than the normal unlock, this would continue until the Book of Ryu's progress had caught up to where it would be had it have been maxed out in the previous volume

When i played the original .hack//G.U i would continue playing a volume after beating it's final boss (ie. Azure Flame God) maxing the progress of all Book of Ryu before moving onto the next volume. but with .hack//G.U Last Recode all 3 Chapters are in the 1 game (as they so advertised).

So i am wondering, Does the Book of Ryu lock rewards if you progress too far? ie. i beat Azure Flame God for Volume 1 Rebirth and move into Volume 2 Reminisce?

texts: Which monster attacks are affected by guard up?

texts:
I'm a big fan of guard lancing. An armor skill that is often suggested for this style of play is guard up. The description of guard up says it causes previously unblockable attacks to become blockable.

I'm looking for a list of monsters that this skill is relevant against (along with the moves which are affected). This way I can gem in the skill for relevant fights and switch to something else when hunting monsters it is useless against.

It would also be good to know if there are any attacks that the skill does not allow you to block. In my search I found doubts if Teostra nova or Dalamadur super lazer could be blocked.

I'm running these plugins:

PHPsend
WorldEdit
iConomy
CommandBook
Vault
Multiverse-Core
PermissionsEx
LWC
WorldGuard
Essentials
AncientGates
Jobs
PreciousStones
EssentialsProtect
Esse ntialsSpawn
SkyWars
EssentialsChat
AuthMe

For the players in the group "Jucator", almost no function is working

/spawn - not working    This whilte /espawn is working
/home - not working
/sethome - not working
/players - not working
/warp and /warps not working

I don't see what's the problem...

I tried adding essentials.spawn, essentials.spawn.*, bukkit.spawn even: multiverse.core.spawn.self, but still not working.

And tried also essentials.home, essentials.home.*, bukkit.home.

And also tried all the permissions for home, spawn and warp from here: http://wiki.mc-ess.net/doc/

Nothing is working...

Also made pex reload, and restarted the server several times, but the same problem...

The players get the message: You don't have permission!

UPDATE:

The new permissions.yml: http://pastebin.com/HspYRXyh, but same bugs...

texts:
Is it possible to return to Emeral Isle after leaving it? I already completed the tournament there.

Two of my party members don't know how to use bows so I wanted to teach it to them and it seems that you can only learn it on Emerald Isle...

texts: If a Viegar casts his full combo on, say, a Kennen, but Kennen uses Zonya's Hourglass before the spells reach him (while the spells are still travelling), will Kennen take any damage from the spells?


texts: Why is there 2 Journey downloads for buying the game?

texts:
I brought Journey for the PS3 the other day and after i went through the checkout and went to download it there was infact 2 downloads, Journey Trail one which was about 500 MB and Journey which was about 100kb.

I am wondering why did i get the Trail for? is the 100kb download just some sort of unlocker and Journey Trail is actually the full game?
