Trying to find information on the skill reset available using in-game gold (not crown points), most of the sources indicate a cost of 100 gold per allocated skill point however others say it depends on player level.

What is the relation of gold cost / skill point with player progression, or is it always a fixed value? Also, do we need to reset all skills or is it now possible to reset only unwanted skills?


texts:
So, today I was playing the game Pokemon Red on my Nintendo Gameboy and I went to the Pokemon Center to heal my Pokemon, and then go to the pc to check my other Pokemon. When I got to the pc, I deposited a zubat, and then used withdrawal to check all the other Pokemon that I had caught. When I went into the withdrawal screen some lines were empty, while others had scrambled text. My deposited zubat looked normal, though. Every time I clicked on one of those scrambled pieces of text, it sometimes showed me a screen with lots of small images on it (sprites for the game?) and then just showed me a white screen. I turned on and off my Gameboy and went into the game. Shortly after I did that, a horizontal white line appeared on the screen. Every few minutes another white line appeared. At the time of me writing this, there are 4 lines on my screen. Even now that I am trying to play the game, as I walk, there seem to be more lines. Now, this is the point where things start getting really weird. I decided to try withdrawing another pokemon with a scrambled name. This one appeared to be a spearrow. Surprisingly, it worked. Then I tried another Pokemon. This one was an Oddish, but it had no name. As soon as I deposited the Oddish, my game crashed and the screen turned white. I wondered what would happen if I put Pokemon Red on my older, other Gameboy. My older Gameboy has vertical white lines off to the side, kind of what my other Gameboy has. The Pokemon names were still broken, and there were no new lines coming on the screen except for the older ones. I decided to put in Super Mario Land 2, and something weird happened. The vertical lines on my old Gameboy's screen just disappeared. I tried this on my other Gameboy, but no such luck.
My questions are: What are the lines, how do I remove them, why are the names in the pc scrambled, and how do I fix them?
NOTES: I have not performed any glitches. All my Pokemon in my party are between lvl. 10 and lvl. 20. I have 1 badge, and I am working on the second one. Currently, I am in Cerulean City.
EDIT: Here are some photos. The first one is with me turning up the contrast, and the second is with the corrupted text. Sorry for the low quality!

texts: Iron Golem Farm not Dropping Iron Ingots

texts: I have created an iron golem farm in a multiplayer server with raiding allowed. The farm is completely automatic, and kills the golems with lava. I am not having a problem with the golems spawning, they spawn. The lava is at their head level with water at their feet level to transport the drops. When they die, they only drop one poppy and no iron ingots. How can I fix this and make them drop iron? The farm works perfectly in single player creative mode.

As Die2Nite is originally a French game called Hordes, the English version was released a while after the French version. The result of this is that those of us who play the English version often get updates pushed to the servers months after the French receive them.

I'm interested in knowing what features and mechanics differ between these two versions of the game. Is there anywhere I can find an up-to-date list of these differences, or, barring that, could someone please make one and post it here?

texts: Match information in Starcraft 2 via packet capture?

texts:
I'm writing a small application to track some additional statistics not provided within Starcraft 2 (e.g. current daily point increase/decrease, distribution of matches such as those won in the first 5 minutes, etc...).  The problem is that there is some information that isn't available on the battle.net webpage.  Ideally, I'd parse all of the information directly from this website, but things like length the game ran and opponents aren't provided on the web version.

So, I've been looking into capturing packets on a client machine to see if there is a way I can extract this data as a user is playing sc2.  I'm not entirely sure this is going to work, because as I've seen thus far, the packets are either encrypted, or simply not readable.

I just wanted to see if others had thoughts on how I might go about this.  Also, the software is going to be GPL licensed, so if you're interested in helping out, let me know.

texts: Can I install PS3 games on an external hard drive?

texts:
I have a PS3 Super Slim with 12 GB of flash. I need to expand its storage to install games.

On the net, I found contrasting opinions: I know I need a disk formatted in FAT32, but I don't understand if I can install games on it or if I can only store saves and multimedia on it.

In case I have to install an internal drive, do I need something to place it in? Some type of box?

Is starbound terraria 2? or are they different competitor companies / games?
Is starbound game play similar to terraria?

texts:
Do different weapon types have different reach? e.g. if I use a regular attack with a polearm, will I be able to strike enemies further away than if I use a regular attack with a dagger?

And if so, what is the reach range of each weapon?

This question is inspired by the behavior in Diablo II as well as the category header for polearms in Diablo III's official game guide:

  Any polearm will extend the reach of its wielder’s arms noticeably, allowing them to fight foes from slightly farther away.

I cannot tell, however, if it's just flavor text or has an actual gameplay impact

texts: How does the spawn protection in Counterstrike Global Offensive work in Competitive Gamemode?

texts:
We had someone matched up with us in competitive mode in Counterstrike Global Offensive who was not content with our performance and started calling us idiots and noobs, the works. We tried to get him to shut up first, then muted him.

As a consequence he started griefing our team. He repeatedly team attacked and deliberately team flashed in the spawn area, probably in an effort to get us to attack him back.

One of my friends reacted to him - unfortunately - by returning fire on being team attacked. Nothing happened then, but in a later round he wanted to flash the griefer back in spawn and hit him with the flash nade (thereby inflicting damage), whereupon he was immediately kicked from the game. It struck us as rather unfair but I guess this has to do with the way spawn protections are implemented in CS:GO.

I guess my friend was actually griefing himself when he returned the favour, so to speak, but it just seems the original griefer should have been kicked a lot earlier.

This is why I would like to know the actual rules at play here. When and where do you have to team attack and how much damage does it have to be for you to be kicked?

I would like to tag more specifically but the existing tags don't seem to be any more specific than that, and I can't create more.

Can I lose anything by switching to other characters?
Is it that no matter how/what/when I play I can keep my unlocks and have them available to other characters during other play sessions?


texts: Call of Duty: Ghosts, stuck in "No Man's Land"

texts:
As the title says, I am on the mission No Man's Land. Just after we take control of Riley for the first time we have two guards, one of which we have to kill, the one watering the grass, Hesh or Logan kill the other one which we lure out.

In my case when I lure out one of the guards they don't kill him and I get killed every time. Even if I kill him by chance, the sniper on the roof isn't shot by Hesh or Logan. I can kill the other two guards by luring one of them but the sniper always remains and thus I cannot move further in the game. What should I do?

I also have other games that had to be installed, like GTA 5 and the Assassin's Creed heritage collection which take up heaps of room too.

texts: Is it a glitch that all three legs of Blue were broken simultaneously and it still lived?

texts:
EDIT: Since people are still answering this, the bug seems to have been caused by a health increase in the patch around that time and has since been fixed.

I know Blue regenerates. We took care of this by having each of us attack one leg, with the siren behind for rezzes. Also, I hit it with about 16 bonus packages (gunzerker). All three legs were bare for about five seconds, but Blue didn't go down, he still had about 1/16 of his health. It was late so we haven't popped back in for a rematch. All other playthroughs I've been in, Blue's been easy enough to kill before any regeneration can occur.

Is this a glitch, or is it possible to still beat Blue when this happens? We hit it with every element, however we could, and not a thing. As far as I know, they only take damage on the crystals, so I expected that to not work.

Edit: The lowest Blue's health went was the same each time, as we did break all the leg crystals multiple times. We started just meleeing, as Blue usually is easy with four people. I never saw Blue's health go back to full, now that I think of it, and we let it regenerate for a while at one point.

Are there ways for other devices to activate hacking it from portals (app to spoof phone type to Ingress? custom Ingress apk? )


texts: WD TV Live + WD My Book + PS3 + HD TV + 5.1 receiver for them all?

I would like to, as well, play some ps3 games, and benefit on both, from the same 5.1 sound system.

I'm not sure, how can I connect all this, or even if is possible for doing so.

Guessing:

I believe that WD TV Live does support HDMI out.
I believe the PS3 does support HDMI out.

Should I connect BOTH HDMI to the 5.1 receiver and from there, connect them to the TV ?

What about the visual part? I mean, If I connect the WD TV Live to the 5.1 receiver, I can't at the same time connect to the HD TV... Or, am I thinking wrong?

Edited: The 5.1 receiver could be, this one:
Sony Home Cinema HT-DDWG800

texts: How to have rumble support in Mupen64Plus?

texts:
Since the native OUYA controllers unfortunately lack force feedback, I'd like to buy either a wired or wireless XBOX360 or PS3 controller (or any other that I can then use on both the OUYA and my PC). But before I waste money on something that costs me my summer vacation to get working (if it's possible at all), I'd like to know:

Which controllers (wireless or not) do connect to the OUYA without much of a hassle? It is not necessary that they work as OUYA-controller as long as Mupen64Plus (and preferably the other emulators available in the OUYA store) supports them. I know this point makes the question rather broad, so please disregard it if you object, but consider the following still
How to setup Mupen64Plus with a controller that provides force feedback such that the N64 rumble functions are available? (Maybe this part is trivial once you got a fitting controller working, in which case I'll accept a simple "My [such-and-such] controller worked fine by using the setting [rumble-on]")

texts: In what areas will being on a PvP server make a difference?

texts:
In Star Wars: The Old Republic, while characters from both sides will visit the same planets, they generally do so at different level brackets and visit different areas in those worlds. For example, playing on a PvE server I haven't come across any players of the other faction just doing my world quests -- only if I go out of my way to explore planets will I occasionally catch a glimpse an 'enemy' player.

I'm curious if this is a result of "phasing", and so such things don't happen on PvP servers, or if it is just how the wolrds are designed... and if the latter, then how much difference does being on a PvP server actually make?

I am looking for advice on expanding your reach from your starting base.

When is a good time to start building further bases? Should you try to go for it early in the game to stop the loss of funds from other continents or is it better to stick with the first base for a while to not run into money trouble? Should expanding be a priority from the start?

Should your other bases have xenonauts too or is it more cost-effective to stack them with airplanes to shoot down UFOs in that territory?

What is a good expansion strategy?


texts: Can you hide Club posts from your Community feed?

I have the current XB1 preview program update that includes Clubs. I've joined one that has thousands of members, and the club's posts have inconveniently saturated my Community (Home screen) feed, burying my friend's posts so far down I might as well go look at each of their feeds (which would be a different kind of inconvenient).

I'd still like to be a member so I can post to that club, but it's a little obnoxious to not have a useful Community feed anymore.

I couldn't find much documentation on the topic, and I dont see any type of club settings to mess around with either. Is there any way to join a club and hide its posts from your Community (Home screen) activity feed?

I remember buying an American copy of SSBB when it just came out, but it didn't work on our Swedish Wii, so I'm worried the same problem would arise with this...


texts: What is the deal with this OP weapon (110k damage with +54 billion experience) a player dropped in my game?

texts:
I left my game open after giving up trying to play with my mate using Australian internet. While I was inactive, a player joined my game and dropped this weapon:
Professional Russian's Fast Sword

+540 Damage (Rubies)
+8, 921 - 11, 050 Damage
+107% Attack Speed
Monster kills grant + 53, 674, 999, 808 experience
10.35 Attacks Per Second

I've been all to familiar with the hacked loot common in Diablo 2 when I played on computer, but I'm playing this game on Xbox One over Xbox LIVE with mates. Still, I went from level 66 to paragon level 919 from just completing the Belial boss fight. Am I right to be suspicious, or does this sort of loot appear in the very high ends of the game?

texts: Do items in Far Cry 3 become very expensive later on?

texts:
I just started playing the game today. I'm two hours in, and I already have about 1500+ dollars! I feel that it's really easy to get money with looting, selling items, mini quests, etc. Also, in the guide it says that some stores will sell weapons for free!

So, do you usually get to feel the scarcity of money in the game eventually? Basically, do items become expensive or anything like that? Do you ever really need to do quests to get some specific weapons or expensive items that cannot be obtained unless you really have a lot of money?

I was expecting the game to be more of a survival type game, where money really matters and it's not easy to become 'rich' so quickly.

texts:
I have been experiencing a lag while moving from one chunk to another at certain places in the world. I noticed it at a couple of places near my initial spawn point. This is in Single player mode

Few notable things:

Cobblestone walls seem to be a a factor. Both the places had cobblestone walls and on rearranging the wall layout at one of the places, the issue got resolved. On the other location, it isn't feasible for me to remove the wall, so I haven't been able to test it.
It is a persistent issue. It has been logged in many places by different players and seems to happen often. But, I didn't experience it earlier (at those locations) so I am hoping someone has insight into what can be done to get around it.


texts:
I created my PSN account many years ago, approximately 2008 when I was 12. And now that we have to stay at home for COVID-19, I wanted to log into it.

Unfortunately, I couldn't remember my password (or my old password doesn't work anymore as it doesn't respect current password norms). So I went for "forgotten password" but when I receive the mail from Sony, I can only recover my account by giving my date of birth or my favorite plate.

Moreover, when I was 12, it wasn't allowed to have a PSN account, so I had to enter a "fake" date of birth. And, you've guess it, I can't remember what was my favourite plate when I was this young : I tried several like Pizza or Pastas without success.
Another "problem" is that you can only have a reset e-mail link each 45 minutes. So you can only enter 5 dates of birth by 45 minutes with makes it very hard to try all possible combination.

I tried calling Sony France today (I'm French). They told me they can't recover my account unless I have :

The serial number of the first PlayStation which I've created my PSN. I've sold this PS3...
A recipe of a purchase on the PS Store. But at 12, I only bought games in real stores.
A credit card that could have been linked to my PSN account, but, you know... 12 years ago, I have no idea what credit card my dad could have used, and if he used one.

Do I have a way to recover my PSN account? Or is it lost forever?

What I'm wondering is what unexpected dangers exist in SLASH'EM, but not Nethack - stuff that is different in a way that's liable to kill me without warning.  (Also, if there are any new advantages I can abuse - a super-Elbereth or something - that'd be nice to know about too.)


texts: How can I make a command have escape codes inside a command with escape codes?

texts:
So basically I am trying to make a one-command-creation, which is where you have an entire project inside one long command.
I already asked a question on here which explains how the one command works, so you can have a look at my previous question to see that.
My long command makes a box, in which tons of command blocks go, which in turn makes everything work. One of my command blocks in there has a specific bit that needs either single quotes ('example') or double quotes with escape codes ("example").
The problem is, the long command needs it to be double quotes, nothing else. If I use double quotes, the long command works but the command block in the box doesn't, and vice versa.
The last thing I have tried to do is put the escape codes (the backslashes), which, in theory, would make it work, but, in practice, the long command treats it as escape code for itself rather than for the command block.
So I'd appreciate if someone could tell me how I can use escape codes and make it use them in the command block (hopefully you know what I mean), or come up with a solution to the original problem, or just give me an entirelly different way to get around it.
Here's the entire command:
summon falling_block ~ ~1 ~ {Time:1,BlockState:{Name:redstone_block},Passengers:[{id:armor_stand,Health:0,Passengers:[{id:falling_block,Time:1,BlockState:{Name:activator_rail},Passengers:[{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'gamerule commandBlockOutput false'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'data merge block ~ ~-2 ~ {auto:0}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'fill ~3 ~-1 ~2 ~8 ~6 ~-2 gray_stained_glass hollow'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'fill ~3 ~-1 ~2 ~8 ~-1 ~-2 smooth_stone_slab[type=top]'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'playsound block.piston.extend ambient @a'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'fill ~3 ~6 ~2 ~8 ~6 ~-2 smooth_stone_slab[type=bottom]'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'setblock ~4 ~ ~-1 repeating_command_block[facing=east]{Command:"tag @e[nbt={OnGround:1b,Item:{id:\\"iron_block\\",Count:4b}}] add irondoor1"}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'data merge block ~4 ~ ~-1 {auto:1b}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'setblock ~5 ~ ~-1 chain_command_block[facing=east]{Command:"tag @e[nbt={OnGround:1b,Item:{id:\\"sticky_piston\\",Count:2b}}] add irondoor2"}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'data merge block ~5 ~ ~-1 {auto:1b}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'setblock ~6 ~ ~-1 chain_command_block[facing=east]{Command:"execute at @e[tag=irondoor1] as @e[tag=irondoor2,distance=..1] run summon item ~ ~ ~ {Tags:[\\"itemkill1\\",\\"IronDoorSpawn\\"],PickupDelay:20,Item:{id:\\"minecraft:stray_spawn_egg\\",Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:\\"{\\"text\\":\\"2 x 2 Iron Door\\"}\\"},HideFlags:1,EntityTag:{id:\\"minecraft:silverfish\\",NoAI:1b,NoGravity:1b,PersistenceRequired:1b,Silent:1b,Health:0}}}}"}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'data merge block ~6 ~ ~-1 {auto:1b}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'setblock ~ ~1 ~ command_block{auto:1,Command:"fill ~ ~ ~ ~ ~-2 ~ air"}'},{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'kill @e[type=command_block_minecart,distance=..1]'}]}]}]}

but this part is all you need to work it out:
{id:command_block_minecart,Command:'setblock ~6 ~ ~-1 chain_command_block[facing=east]{Command:"execute at @e[tag=irondoor1] as @e[tag=irondoor2,distance=..1] run summon item ~ ~ ~ {Tags:[\\"itemkill1\\",\\"IronDoorSpawn\\"],PickupDelay:20,Item:{id:\\"minecraft:stray_spawn_egg\\",Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:\\"{\\"text\\":\\"2 x 2 Iron Door\\"}\\"},HideFlags:1,EntityTag:{id:\\"minecraft:silverfish\\",NoAI:1b,NoGravity:1b,PersistenceRequired:1b,Silent:1b,Health:0}}}}"}'}
Thanks in advance.

texts: How to deactivate a hopper without activating a dropper directly below?

texts:
I am creating a redstone system that has a dropper facing upwards into a hopper that in turn points back down into the dropper.

My goal is to be able to lock the top hopper by powering it with redstone. But however I seem to go about this, it seems to power the dropper, sometimes only when it receives a redstone update.

The rules of quasi-connectivity are that "anything that can power a redstone component above your dropper can power the dropper itself, even if the redstone component isn't there."
This means that any way of directly powering the hopper will indirectly power the dropper, and there is no way to lock the hopper without powering the dropper.

Is there a way to lock the top hopper without powering the dropper?

texts: As a Terran player, what should I do differently as a result of the 1.4 patch gameplay changes?

texts:
1.4 includes quite a few changes to gameplay (here is a condensed list):

Unit vision up ramps has been reduced by 1.
Immortal Attack range increased from 5 to 6.
Mothership Acceleration increased from 0.3 to 1.375.
Mothership's Cloaking Field no longer cloaks all units instantaneously, but rather adds units to the cloak field over time (maximum of 25 per second).
Stalker Blink research time increased from 110 to 140.
Warp Prism Shields increased from 40 to 100.
Barracks Build time increased from 60 to 65.
Hellion Infernal Pre-Igniter damage upgrade decreased from 10 to 5.
Raven Seeker missile movement speed increased from 2.5 to 2.953.
Infestor Fungal Growth damage changed from 36 (+30% armored) to 30 (40 vs Armored).
Neural Parasite range decreased from 9 to 7.
Overseer Morph cost decreased from 50/100 to 50/50.
Contaminate energy cost increased from 75 to 125.
Ultralisk Build time decreased from 70 to 55.

As a Terran player, what changes to my tactics and strategy should I be thinking about implementing as a result of these changes? For example, are there things that were uncommon or ineffective that I should now add to my play? Are there things that used to be common that I should now avoid?

texts: Are moving ships harder to hit by macro weapons?

texts:
While it seems like a silly question (it seems logical that moving target is HARDER to hit than a static one), I am wondering if this is true in the game mechanic?

In the Battlefleet:Gothic Armada 2 we have weapons that always hit (lances, zzap, missiles), dummy weapons that you can evade (torpedoes, various bombs) and then you have the regular "macro cannons" that have "x% chance to hit".

Is this chance calculated only based on the distance (as in weapon description - i.e. 80% hit below 4500 units) and it is decided when the attacker shoots, or is the opponent position and movement taken into consideration (so the defender can dodge the bullets).

I am wondering this, since if the former is true, then the "sitting duck" (stay in place and just keep aiming) strategy for vessels with strong prow armour and front facing guns (like i.e. Empire's Dauntless light cruiser) more viable than the usual attempt to "dance" around the opponent? Or will you get hit more often this way?


texts: Is there an alternative way to exit active hacks?

texts:
So far while playing the game I've run into the same issue a number of times where I want to exit out of a hack such as controlling a forklift or camera while there is ongoing dialogue/news playing in relation to the story/mission.

It just so happens that the only known button to exit out of these hacks is ESC but they also close and cancel the dialogue/news reports with no way of bringing them back up essentially accidentally skipping what I personally consider story relevant content.

Is there an alternative button or method to get out of said hacks without also closing the calls and news feeds you receive?

texts: Is it worth it to explore high level areas as a low level agent?

texts:
So far, I've gone a couple of hours into the game and just reached level 10. I'm feeling adventurous and am striving to reach every safehouse to unlock them. To do so, it means I have to venture off to areas I'm technically not ready for. I can deal with level 15-16 enemies one at a time. But will die in 2 hits or less.

I usually do this when playing RPGs to hopefully get valuable loot that I can use or sell. But slowly, I'm starting to feel like it might not be worth it after all.

Surviving is tough. I can go around mobs but the moment they notice me, I'm dead.
Killing is really tough. At 5-6 levels over, they're manageable.  But 10+ is suicide.
Crafting material loot is lame. They're found at the same rarities and quantities in lower level areas.
Equipment found would not be usable at all. Since there are level requirements, there's no point in struggling to get them so early.
Loot quality sucks. All loot are still at green/blue levels. The only neutral items that could be found are vanity items and even then, there's nothing good I've found so far.
Selling loot sucks. Higher level items don't cost that much more than those at my level.

The only good things I can think of are:

Areas can be scouted early. In my case, going to the safehouses, I'm opening fast travel opportunities and reveling mission locations.
It's uhh... fun... to... sneak around past enemies?

That's a lot of cons, are there any pros?


texts: Does "currency earned" mean total collected, or how much is in your bank?

texts:
The Achievement Legacy section includes a set of Currency achievements, Exorbitantly Wealthy, and is described as "Earned xxx credits." There are 100k, 1mil, 10mil levels.

When it says "earned", does that mean all the money collected over time, regardless if it is ever spent or not? Or do you have to have that much money in your inventory to get the achievement?

I ask because it feels like I've earned enough to hit some of the higher levels, but I don't have the last achievement yet. If it does track earned as it suggests, has it only been tracking that since the Achievement system went live?

I noticed a stealth-related gene tonic in BioShock 2, the Drill Lurker ("Quietens your footsteps and increases DAMAGE from melee attacks on UNAWARE opponents, especially with the DRILL swing").

Since the game does appear to have stealth mechanics, I would like to know how do they work: how does the enemy AI detect the player?

Specifically, I would like to know:

Do the sounds you make matter? (from weapon sounds, gunfire, plasmid/gene tonic effects to walking on different types of floor) Will crouch walking lessen sound?
Does sight or light levels matter? Can I lurk in the shadows? Sneak behind people? Hide behind objects? Being on a different level (a floor up or down)?
Once you're spotted, is hiding effective? Do enemies alert each other?
Any enemies with unique behavior when it comes to player detection?
Does difficulty matter?

Similar question of mine for BioShock 1: What stealth elements are there in BioShock?

texts: VoidRays vs Stalkers: die or try to retreat?

texts:
In my PvP engagement when I have stalkers+VR vs opponents Stalkers, I often have situation when opponents stalkers are focusing my VRs.

My intuitive wish is to pull VRs back, but quite often opponent can move stalkers and finish VRs...

So I don't get much gain from pulling VRs back: if they stayed and shooted they would do some damage, but when retreating - they just die for nothing. Ok, not really for nothing, my stalkers shooting opponents stalkers, but that is not good consolation.

What is the good micro for such case:

stay with VR where they are, do damage and die
or better pull back and try to escape?

Thank you.

texts: What is the average lifespan of witchers?

texts:
This reddit posts suggests that Geralt's age is about 100 years.

The age of Vesemir must be at least 150+ (considering the above info), because in the first episode of Hexer, Vesemir is shown as being old (must be 50+), and Geralt seems to be around 13 years old.
Now, considering the timeline of Witcher 3, Geralt seems old, so Vesemir's age must be around 50 years more than Geralt's.

The reason for considering Vesemir's age is that they are both mutants and their ageing rate could be changed, increased or decreased. I can't say anything about that.

However, in Witcher 3 Vesemir dies at about 150 years of age.
So, the maximum age is about 150 (it can be still more if Geralt crosses 150).

Considering Leo's case (minimum), he seems to be at about 20 years old at the time of his death.

So my question is: What is the average lifespan of a witcher?

Please give a good source for your answer.

But since there are marines with mines, I can often barely trigger the later. I tried to provoke friendly fire but this occurred not to worth the change for me (after comparing losses on replay).

Mine drops are not really a problem for me if (when I'm well aware), now I simply do at least a spore and a spine on each mineral line, and pull off my drones when the drop is coming.

In late game, I dispatch overseers then some lings when I see mines, but I still break my teeth on defenses with mines.

So the question is:

In zerg platinum level, how to counter widow mines in early, middle, late game ?

texts: PS4 games prompting to join PSN for family members?

texts:
I've just got a PS4 and set up local child profiles under family management for my kids. When they go to play Gran Turismo Sport it recognises they are a child account (screen says some settings may be restricted by parental controls) but still prompts for them to join PSN and they are unable to save progress.

My expectation was that they would not need their own PSN login as they are children under my PSN account - is this correct?

I'm not sure if this is a general thing or a GT Sport specific thing

They don't have email addresses of their own, and I don't really want to set up full blown PSN accounts if I can avoid it


texts: Is there a way to completely disable the narrator in Minecraft 1.12.2?

texts:
Every time I write a curly bracket (my keyboard has it set up as alt+b) in game, the narrator turns on because its on the same key bind as the curly brackets. This is really anoying and I would like to turn it off somehow. Since 1.12 doesn't offer this feature, I was wondering if anyone knew a way to do this or even a mod which does this.

I read a comment on Reddit saying that there is a native library called "com.mojang:text2speech" which is responsible for the narrator functionallity but I don't want to edit my client. The user also said that these libraries could be removed from the version.json file but I wasen't able to find anything simmilar.

texts: How do I unequip both spells from the favorites menu?

texts:
I'm trying to unequip both spells from the Favorites menu, but it's just not working. I can unequip the spell that has the L symbol on it, but if I try the other spell all it does is toggle between R and LR.

Is this a bug? I can't seem to remove all spells from both hands. This is for the PC version of the game.

Edit: Almost the new year's and this is still an issue. I can't fathom how this game won several game of the years despite being so broken. Has anything new been released to address this issue?

Edit 2: Middle of the year now. Hopefully there has been a patch solving this issue? I want to buy the game on Steam during the summer sale but would like to know beforehand if this has been solved correctly with no "work arounds".


texts: Mario Kart 8 Total Coins Collecting Logic

texts:
How do the total coins add up?

Every time I collect one or only the ones I'm holding at the end of the race? In the latter case, it would always take at least 5 races (5 * 10 = 50) to unlock something since holding coins is limited to 10.

I assume it's the first case though since I possibly unlocked a new part after a Grand Prix (= 4 races).


texts: Is it ok to build a wall not on main's, but on natural's choke?

texts:
I play Terran and in 1v1 most of the time I wall up aganist Protoss and Zerg. Recently it came to my mind that instead of building a wall on main's choke I can build it at natural's, thus protecting them both. Of course, this is not applicable to all maps, but, for example, on Blistering Sands building wall and concentrating units on natural's choke seems a good idea to me, because 1) I better protect the natural 2) My units are concentrated closer to the enemy 3) I can quickly intercept the force that is trying to destroy rocks at backdoor.

Are there any disadvantages to this tactic? I can think only of one: in case of drop it's farther for my units to run. But given that I usually try to detect and intercept/anticipate drops, it doesn't seem to be a big problem.

texts: How to make a minecraft source file to hold files for both a windows and a mac version, both held on the same USB?

texts:
I recently made a "minecraft usb" that allows me to play minecraft on both a windows, and a mac machine (my main machine.) The root directory has two folders, "MC_MAC" and "MC_WIN". Everything works great, but I'm looking for a way to make the two installations use the same "saves" file, so that I don't have to keep copying and recopying worlds from the Mac "saves" to the "windows" saves.

I thought of using the "Alias" function on mac, but that probably wouldn't translate well onto a windows machine.

Thoughts?

(Bonus points for getting the one "source" file to sync with the saves file on my mac when I plug in the usb...)

[Edit]

So far, I've got answers about how to run minecraft completely off a USB. This isn't my problem, I've gotten the game to work fine on both mac and windows, running completely off my 16GB Flash-drive, and leaving no trace (so far as I can tell) on the host machine, be it windows or mac.

Seeing as the MC for mac is a .app and MC for windows is a .exe, I can't use one install on both computers. And seeing as I have two installs, with each one generating it's own set of files, I have two save folders.

What I need is some way to make both installs read from and write to just one save folder.

texts: What does the Super Nitrous do in CSR Racing 2?

texts:
I have been playing CSR2 for a little while, and have recently defeated the Tier 1 leader, KJ. However, afterwards he challenged me to a race where I wager the gold I won from beating him for his car. I chose to take him up on it, and then I was told I'd have no hope without first getting Super Nitrous - which costs real money. So I brought it and managed to win the car from KJ.

What I want to know is, does the Super Nitrous stay, and if so what does it do... Or is it only for the races where you're racing for the cars of those you have beaten?

texts: Help make my fast minecart unloader more compact

texts:
I made a fast minecart-with-hopper unloader, intended for high-efficiency, extensive farms.

The proof of concept works - it unloads the minecart at 35 items per second, and the "core" is beautifully compact and quite trivial - using a "buffer" minecart with hopper. Instead of unloading the minecart with hopper directly into a hopper, I unload it into another minecart with hopper - this process is incredibly fast, and so the stop can be very short, then the first minecart returns to making its rounds collecting goodies along the track, while a normal hopper unloads the "buffer minecart" into a chest or other destination.

Problems begin with the "easy" part: stop the minecart for a moment for unloading and then start it again. My solution with repeaters and piston is ugly and expensive. It adds only 1s delay (20 ticks), unloading exactly 35 items.

Since checking the minecart contents without unloading it fully is not so easy, a longer delay would be nice - but not as nice as making this smaller (narrower!) and cheaper - as this is to be used with high-efficiency farms, it should be as narrow as possible to be tileable over multiple "instances" - and cheap to implement these multiple instances.

Can you help me make this more compact and cheaper without losing the speed?


texts:
I'm in the Skyview Temple, in the first three connected rooms -- the middle room is the one that contains the map, the rooms to the left and right contain some skulltulas and pink switches.

Unfortunately I raised the water level (twice) before I realized there was another pink switch in a hole or tunnel at floor level in the room to the right...

I don't have the Water Scale (or whatever it's called) yet, so I don't seem to be able to dive.  But there also doesn't seem to be any way to lower the water back down (hitting any of the switches again has no effect).

So it would seem I don't have any choice but to start the game over from scratch.
Has anyone else encountered this?

texts:
My wife and I are both playing The Last of Us Part 2, each with our own profile, effectively taking turns. We're also enjoying watching the other play, so we're sort of taking turns spoiling one another.
At one point I was playing a section my wife had already played. I'd cleared the area of enemies and was scouring the area for resources. However, I forgot there was an area I hadn't yet searched and went past a point-of-no-return. My wife screamed, but it was too late and I'd already triggered the checkpoint.
Ends up the area I forgot to search included a new weapon

the trap mine

Does this mean I'll have to perform my entire playthrough without this item? I've done some googling for guides on where to find equipment and they all give only one location, so I'm feeling pessimistic. But I'm hoping they're only showing the first location for each item, but that I might find other copies elsewhere. If so, where?

texts: 98% notes hit, 9 note streak, lots of notes go clunk

texts:
I've been playing co-op Guitar Hero 3 on my Xbox 360 recently and have noticed something a bit odd.

I have two guitar controllers, the Les Paul that came with Guitar Hero 3 and the Xplorer that came with Guitar Hero 2.  The Xplorer always seems to perform worse, no matter who is playing it.  A lot of the time, when you to hit a note the flame graphic on the note shows but the "clunk" sound for missing a note plays as well.

I just did an experiment with the two guitars in single player.  Same song, same difficulty.  With the Les Paul I got 99%, 200+ note streak and only missed three notes.  With the Xplorer I got 98%, 9 note max streak and only missed four notes.  A lot of notes went clunk, yet the game was clearly registering them as being hit!

How is this possible?  What on earth is going on here?

texts: How likely is it to pull a character from data cards?

texts:
In Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, one of the ways to unlock new characters or promote existing characters is through data cards. If you go into the data cards screen, there are four generic cards/packs that have the ability to unlock characters either through granting a character shard, or providing the full character. These cards/packs are:

Chromium Data Card
Chromium Data Pack
Chromium Mega-Pack
Bronzium Data Card

What are the chances of getting a character or shard in each of these cards/packs?

Note: the Chromium Mega-Pack (option 3) guarantees at least one character being pulled. In the case for the Mega-Pack, what are the chances of pulling a second character?

I've tried everything like attempting to delete with dw, dW, db, dB, de, dE, pressing x repeatedly but no luck.

Could I have missed something out?

By looking at the source, I've found a couple of 'hidden' levels, but not how to get to them. They are as follows:

   desert
 seas
 Cow level

How do I get to them?


texts: Why does knocking out a cat only sometimes yield a diamond in SEGA game Flicky?

texts:
In the SEGA Arcade/Genesis/Mega Drive game Flicky, why does knocking out a cat only sometimes yield a diamond?

You can see what I am talking about 20 seconds into this video:

Diamonds are worth various amounts of bonus points, and exactly what governs their value would be a second part to the question.

I've played the game for years, and I own the original arcade cabinet, but I've never been able to figure this out. The only guaranteed way would be to decompile and analyse the original Z80/68000 code.

Indeed, the behaviour might even be different across platforms.

Any thoughts or information appreciated.


texts: How is drifting with a bike different than drifting with a kart?

texts:
I normally play using a kart, but most my friends play with a bike. I tried playing with a bike and I was completely unable to make any turns, it seems like the entire process of drifting (when to start, what the curve looks like, when to stop) is completely different than on a kart.

How do you adjust the drifting strategy when making turns with a bike?


texts: How can I determine my horse's attributes (speed, endurance, etc.) in Red Dead Redemption?

texts: It's hard to weigh the merits of buying a horse when I have no idea how they compare to the one I already have.   Am I missing something?


texts:
Sometimes when you try to fast travel, you are unable to and a message is displayed that tells you that you cannot fast travel with enemies nearby. What determines when enemies are "nearby"?

Is it purely distance? Or are there other things that factor into it?

Using the /summon command, is it possible to summon written books? I have the /give command for the book that I wrote (can supply said command if needed), but when I tried changing it to be in the /summon format, it summoned a piece of stone. Another quick question I had along the same lines is summoning enchanted items. Any suggestions?

This is another book with the same number of pages and the same characteristics as my first book (click event, colored text)

/give @p written_book 1 0 {pages:["{\"text\":\"Welcome\",\"color\":\"dark_red\"}","{\"text\":\"Introduction\",\"color\":\"dark_red\"}","{\"text\":\"DRAMA!\",\"color\":\"dark_red\"}","[\"\",{\"text\":\"C\",\"color\":\"dark_red\",\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"run_command\",\"value\":\"/say Test Success\"}},{\"text\":\"lIcK MURdEr!\",\"color\":\"dark_red\"}]","{\"text\":\"Dramatic ending!\",\"color\":\"dark_red\"}"],title:"How to Kill a Minecrafter",author:SMILIECHICKEN,generation:3}


texts: I have a pretty good streak going with checking the Nook Stop every day for the bonus miles. However, tomorrow the Resident Services tent will be closed because they are upgrading to a building so I won't be able to check the machine. Is that going to break my streak?


texts: Can I activate a product key in UPlay for a game that I've already bought on Steam?

texts:
I have bought a Ubisoft game on Steam, and bought its season pass product key on a retail website, which happens to be for UPlay.

It seems that I have wasted my money. That, I accept. Now, I want to buy the base game for UPlay as well because it is cheaper to buy DLC on Steam.

My question is, if I try to activate a product on UPlay, which I already own in Steam, will it say you already own the product or will it allow me to activate the base game and play the bought DLCs?


texts: Can the mini-crossbow oneshot with tranquilizer darts?

texts:
I know that with a baton or a charge prod I can knock out a fellow from behind, but I never did good use of a crossbow without revealing myself post-shot.

Do I have to master the pistol skill? is there another way maybe?


texts: How can I change where Steam games save data?

texts:
In my Documents folder I have "\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether", "\My Games\Far Cry Primal", and "Square Enix\JustCause3" that are folders made automatically by the games. I'd like to move these folders to the same place. For Don't Starve Together I was able to go into the launch settings in steam and enter

'"-persistent_storage_root "C:\Users\USER\Documents\Game Saves\Klei"'

which successfully moved the save data.

Is there any way to do this for other games?
