Where do I go from here? What can I do now?

texts: What sets of major collectable items are there in Skyrim?

texts:
Last time I played Skyrim I set my character the task of collecting all of the Dragon Masks. Because the masks are spread all over Skyrim and heavily guarded it made for a very enjoyable alternative to the normal quest lines.

Are there any other sets of major collectable items like the Dragon Masks?

Preferably I'm looking for items which are:

Spread all over Skyrim (or at least a wide geographical area)
Challenging to retrieve (guarded, or otherwise difficult to access)
Related to give my character's task some sense of purpose
Do not randomly spawn (I don't want to have to search an entire castle for something that may not be there)

I have all the DLC and am an experienced player if that helps.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'd love to get some more hours out of Skyrim.

texts:
In Zelda BOTW, when you first meet Impa, she says that Zelda left a message for you, but that she is afraid that the knowledge may be "too much to bear while you are still without your memories".

At this point, you can either refuse to hear it right now and leave (and if you do so, the main quest related to meeting Impa will not advance) or hear the message anyway.

Now, I figured I would try waiting to "recover my memories" before hearing the message, and set out to try and do that.

However, after researching for a bit around the internet, I learned that, to recover my memories, I needed to get the "Camera Glyph" which will be given to you at the Hateno Ancient Lab, but the guy there will only give me the related quest if I have "Impa's Authorisation" (which I will only get if I listen to the aforementioned message!)

Is there any other way to recover your memories, and if not, is there any point that I may have missed to Impa giving you the choice?

texts: Should I ignore coal loss when farming iron?

texts:
I'm at a stage of the game (year 148, 58 kittens) where I am needing large quantities of iron. When running my smelters at max, plus my mines, I gain 1.1 coal per second and 2.5 iron per second. My auto crafter will make steel from that, effectively meaning i only get 1.4 iron per second net.

I contemplated removing steel from my auto crafter and accept that I'm earning coal that I'm not spending. It's not as efficient, but at the same time if I'm heavily delaying my observatories, ships and harbors then it maybe it's worth it.

I have about 1500 steel stockpiled. Is this going to be enough? Or should I tough it out because it's more efficient in the long run to have that steel stockpiled?

I'd like to continue on with the story, but at the same time there are some achievements that I'd like to finish up. As far as I know the only ability to complete those achievements is based on specific characters that reside only in Wellpsring or the surrounding area.

texts: How to produce particle effects in Minecraft

texts:
As the title says, How do you produce particle effects in Minecraft?

I am trying to create a 1x2 doorway filled with smoke particles. I would have a clock setup to keep reproducing these particles as well. My problem is, when creating the particle effect, the smoke lingers into a nearby corner. I however, as I stated, would like the particles to be stationary in a 1x2 door frame.

I am having trouble with one part of the command. I do not understand the "XD, "YD", and "ZD" part. What does this mean, and how would I use this section of the command? Is this what is making the particle linger into a corner, and not making it stationary?

texts:
I am a strong, independent King, who needs no man. As a consequence of my massive, throbbing brain, I have managed to matrilineally marry my female heir to a Frenchman, whom, despite his inferiour intellect, I have later orchestraed into a position as a Aquatainian super duke. It's super awesome. In theory.

Anyway, a different, weaker, duke has challenged him to depose him from perhaps his largest duchy. Since my son-in-law is stronger, this shouldn't be a problem ... except he doesn't lift a finger to prevent catostraphe from happening.

Aquiataine has been through a long period of internal strife, so the total power of these two dukes are perhaps 1,500 men each. Yet my son-in-law has let the other duke siege his provinces, and the warscore has been ticking for years.

Apart from this dispute, they are both fighting a small independence war on behalf on their common liege – this is what occupies my son-in-law.

I've sent him several hundred gold, so he now has over 500, yet he doesn't spend it on anything (I hoped for mercenaries).

Unfortunatelly, I can not join his war – that option is not available on the diplomacy screen. I assumed this is because they are not independent. My son-in-law is perfectly able to invite other parties in the same realm into the war.

Interestingly, I am able to join the opposing duke in a different war, which is also an internal strife.

I simply don't understand why I can join that war, and not the other, they seem pretty similar. I am not involved in any other relevant war that would cause me to become hostile to my allies.

Is this a bug? Is there a way I can join this war, perhaps through console commands or save-game editing? Should I just continue throwing gold after him, hoping that he will eventually hire some mercs? I am currently plotting to kill the opposing duke, but not sure I can make it in time.

I was clearing the path and by mistake I removed the bottom sand block, making the upper one fall, and then the altar wasn't over 3 blocks anymore. The game made a sound like when a zombie dies, and the altar dissapeared.

No message appeared. I didn't lose any HP. It may have any colateral effect in-game?

texts: Is there an optimal way to use incinerators?

texts:
In Two-Point Hospital's "Close Encounters" DLC, there is a new type of bin called the "incinerator". It has the side-effect of putting off heat, so I thought to use them to solve both waste disposal and heating problems simultaneously on a cold map.

However, I found there are some drawbacks to this:

Contrary to what its name implies, the incinerator doesn't destroy garbage so it still fills up and has to be emptied by a janitor.
While it puts off heat, the amount of heat is directly proportional to how full it is. When empty, it puts off about the same amount of heat as a small radiator; when full it puts out none.
Patients cannot vomit into incinerators, so they still require regular bins or else they'll go on the floor.

My main concern is with the heat aspect, since temperature is something of a balancing act. If I heat a room/space normally, and then place incinerators, everyone will complain about being too hot when the incinerators are empty/close to empty. If I don't heat the area adequately and use the incinerator's ambient heat to make up the difference, everyone will complain when they fill up and stop putting out as much heat.

Is there an optimal strategy for incinerators or do the trade-offs between temperature and capacity make them generally unusable for this reason?

texts: Is there a way to scroll through the skill tree faster?

texts:
As I progress through the game and unlock more nodes in the skill tree, I've found that it takes a frustratingly long time to get to the nodes I want to unlock whenever I go to the skill tree, since the starting position is the very first skill you unlock and you have to move from node to node one at a time until you get where you're trying to go. This may not be an issue for PC (not sure if there's some sort of scroll bar?), but it is unbearably slow on PS4.

Is there a way to bypass nodes or scroll through the skill tree faster? It takes a while to get to the far ends of the tree at the moment.


texts: Do the buffs from eating food in Genshin Impact stack?

texts:
There are several kinds of buffs provided by food in the game. There are defensive and offensive food, which raises stats of things like defense, attack, crit rate, and crit damage. There are utility consumables which up specific elemental damage, or increases resistance to particular elements for a short duration, or decreases stamina consumption or restores flat stamina.
Do all these buffs stack? Are they all treated as separate instances of buffs? Or do some buffs override each other? For instance, do attack buffs from food stack? Does a greater amount of attack always override another attack buff?  Does the same logic apply for hybrid foods which apply offensive buffs in multiple categories (ie Adeptus Temptation, which buffs both Attack and Crit Rate).

Do I need to keep all chunks containing the quarry loaded, or do I only need to keep the chunk containing the quarry block itself loaded?  Also if I am piping items back from the quarry will anything bad happen if the chunks containing those items are not loaded?

texts:
(Based on this thread)

Using external programs, it is possible to create an effect which actually decreases a players maximum health. This is achieved by using the health boost effect with a negative level, and is not possible without use of an external program.

However (with the use of an external program), I can only create the effect once. Is there any way I can summon the effect over and over?

I have a few theories on how this could be done, but none of them have worked.

Create a "negative" potion, and place it in a chest. Summon the item in the chest as a splash potion directly next to a player.
Remove the physics from a negative splash potion, leaving it suspended in mid-air. Copy and paste the entity on the ground nearby a player.

Normally, my strategy to solving this problem would be something along the lines of:

Clone a dispenser containing the potion above all players.
Activate the dispenser.
Break the dispenser, and the block activating it.` However, this will not always work, since players might be completely surrounded in blocks, or suffocating in a wall.

texts: Is there any way to hide the juggernaut's location on a map?

texts: In Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, there are times when someone gets a juggernaut delivered to them (by getting it as a kill streak reward). But when someone has it on, you can see their location as a red diamond with a dot in the middle. I haven't gotten a juggernaut in any standard game modes, but with the community mode infected, there are games where you are juggernauts fighting strikers (on the dome map, to be more specific). The problem is, you can see everyone that is a juggernaut, even if you're the enemy. And that comes with a great disadvantage, because you can't hide from enemies. So, is there any way to mask your location on the map, or is it going to stay like that?

texts: PSN downloads for the PSVita --- interpreting game availability

texts:
I've been browsing the playable games on the PS Vita listed here on the official website: http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/#?platform=PSVita&Genre=Genre&SubCat=Vita Features&page=1

Every single game in this list is playable on the PSVita.  You can click on any of the games and see something like "Platform: PSP®, PSVita".  In most cases, there is a "Buy Download" option, which makes sense, as the PSVita cannot read PSP UMDs.

However, these are other cases where there is only a "Buy Disc" option available, and there are other cases where there is NO buy option available.  For example:

1) Buy Disc only: http://us.playstation.com/games/kingdom-hearts-birth-by-sleep-psp.html

2) No Buy option: http://us.playstation.com/games/knights-in-the-nightmare-psp.html

Both of those PSP games list PSVita as platforms.  "Buy Disc" is meaningless as it is UMD format for the PSP.  So if you can't download either of them, and both of their release dates say "Out Now," what in the world does that even mean?

The above two are simply examples --- the entire list is riddled with these mystery cases.  How can I interpret this list?  I can't buy a PSVita until I can concretely determine with no mystery what I actually can and can't play.

texts: Did the loot table of Whimsyshire on Hell changed post-Patch 1.0.3?

texts:
From the official patch notes:

  High-end items (items level 61-63) will now drop in all Acts of Inferno and Acts III and IV of Hell
  The new approximate drop rates are as follows:

  Hell - Act III and Act IV

  iLvl 61: 9%
  iLvl 62: 1.9%
  iLvl 63: 0%

  [...]

I'd like to know if this also affects Whimsyshire: Do mobs there (on Hell difficulty) also drop ilvl 61/62 now?

I think so because mobs in Whimsyshire usually seem to drop items of the same quality as Act IV of the chosen difficulty. Otherwise, the entrance to the secret level is located in Act I which isn't listed there.

Sadly I can't find this out myself as I only got the Staff of Herding for Normal difficulty till now.

After having EDI get settled in her new body, I just got an e-mail from Thane stating that he would be at the Huerta Hospital under an assumed name and encouraged me to visit him before his disease takes a hold of him.  However, going right to the hospital, I can find and talk to the Virmire survivor, but I cannot find Thane at all.

Is there a certain point in the game after I receive this e-mail that I can find him or am I missing an obvious door in the hospital?  I also searched the rest of the Citadel and could not find him.

The e-mail is as follows:

  Shepard,

  I've called and I've sent messages, but gotten no response.  With Earth's comm system out, I don't expect this will get through, either, but I heard a rumor the Normandy docked here at the Citadel.

  Are you alive?  I'm at Huerta Memorial Hospital under the name Tannor Nuara.  Please excuse the moniker and this email's encryption--in my line of work, it iss unwise to advertise my location, particularly when I am not in good health.

  We should meet before circumstances force us to part again.

  Thane

Emphasis mine.


texts: Half Life 2, Episode 1 starts running slow in-game

texts:
I'm playing Half-Life 2, Episode 1 on a mediocre laptop. Half Life 2 ran perfectly after tinkering with the video settings. I understand that Episode 1 is more demanding on the graphics.

The problem: after a few minutes of playing, without any issues, the game slows down and movements become jittery.

In earlier Half Life 2 games it would either run, or it wouldn't - making tinkering easier.

As of now, it seems that something during game playing goes awry and slows the game suddenly down. It doesn't happen gradually; somehow, at a given moment, it just jitters and abruptly slows down to an unacceptable level. It happens indoors, outdoors, enemies coming in or not, i.e., randomly in terms of game location. It seems to happen often after 5 minutes of game play or so. But sometimes it keeps on running smoothly longer.

I did tinker around somewhat with the texture detail and water reflections because I'm aware they are over the recommended settings. I also shortly tried disabling HDR and enabling bloom (whatever that may do), but troubleshooting is difficult due to the delay of the problem onset and sometimes randomness of slowing.

Any ideas what to do? Especially my knowledge on anti-aliasing and filtering is very poor and the game doesn't recommend settings for these options. I copied the settings from half-life 2 to Episode 1. Somehow the Radeon software suggested settings for HL2 that worked like a dream, but I can't get the Radeon software to work anymore. So I copied the settings from HL2 to Episode 1, in lieu of something more constructive.

laptop specs:

AMD quad-core 1.8 GHz
8 GB RAM
Radeon R7 M260 (2 GB)
OS: Windows 10
Advanced Systems care to shut down background processes

I just finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It was awesome. Is there a god mode for this game?  I would love to play this game and be able to explore around without getting killed all the time but I can't find a way to turn on any "cheats".

I found something called "trainers" but they seem like Trojan horses to me.  Don't game companies enable "cheat" modes for their games anymore?


texts: Is it possible to stop the Madman from escaping his yacht?

texts:
In Desert Strike's third campaign map, one of the missions is to rescue hostages from the madman's yacht, pictured below.

The following excerpt from a strategy guide on CheatCC details the mission:

  When you first get there, shoot soldiers on the deck and take out all vehicles hanging about. Then shoot a hole in the yacht.  You will see hostages float out the south side, and when you go to pick them up, Mubaba escapes in a speedboat from the north side.

Now, I've owned this game for a long time, but I was never able to destroy the madman's speedboat, and neither was the writer of the guide, as he goes on to say:

  I don't know if you can stop him; I never have.

However I was playing the game the other day, and whilst I didn't stop the speedboat, I did notice in the mission debriefing "Now the bad News" section that I lost 500 points for "The madman escaped"

Does this mean it IS possible to take him out there? Or is this one of those unavoidable no-win scenarios with a guaranteed point loss?

Note that there is a 4th campaign map that wouldn't make sense if the madman died, but I'm assuming that either his second in command takes over or that ends the game prematurely.


texts: When is Monk's passive skill Pacifism effective?

texts:
The Pacifism tooltip says if you are under a Fear, Stun or Charm effect, all damage taken is reduced by 75%.

I'm not sure what effects are counted as Fear, Stun or Charm. Some people seem to think it covers all crowd control effects, but I'm doubtful. For instance, does Frozen or Imprisonment count? When Diablo puts you in the cage and then grasps you in his hand, does it count? I'd like a complete list of what counts as a Fear, Stun or Charm effect.


texts:
Shortly after I started playing TF2, my backpack filled up with items, many of which were "Mann Co. Stockpile crates". Because I didn't want to buy a premium account straight away, I deleted my crates in favour of other items. However, since I eventually decided I needed a premium account, I bought a stockpile crate key. I then realised I had deleted all of my crates. I decided to wait for a new one, since they seemed to drop all the time. However, I haven't found a single crate in my ~150 hours playtime after I bought my account. Now I just have a key floating around my inventory, attracting trades from people who want it. I therefore went to buy one from the community market where they are extremely cheap to buy. However, on hovering over them, they all contain either a bat or a hat, neither of which I want to waste £1.49 on. The thing I want most is a strange weapon, but I can't find a crate on the market that has the possibility of containing a strange. So, two questions:

Do I still get Stockpile crate drops when I have a premium account? (I have found a couple of supply crates)
Do they all contain either a bat or a hat?

texts:
In Gemcraft there's a huge advantage to enrage waves with the cheapest possible gem. But this requires a lot of work because you'll need to do it many times.

There's softare to combine gems and maybe this could also be used to enrage waves.

But I only want to enrage the waves, is there a way to do that quickly without extra software?

Like you can fill up your entire inventory space with a gem level in one click.
I'm looking for a combination that bombs the entire gem inventory into one target (wave).

Edit:
I've seen one Youtuber do this in a video, it includes the mouse wheel to set a stack on the gem bomb spell, but I've been unable to reproduce this myself.

texts: What is this place with 5 altars in Witcher 3?

texts:
While running like a crazy person around (I tend to do that) I walk upon this place (sorry for low quality... phone pictures) in south east, near the Nilfgaardian border:

It looks like a semicircle of 5 altars of some sort, each altar having a symbol on him (swallow, sea monster, dog, mare, and another bird). Looks important/fun but is nothing around (they don't glow on witcher senses, can't interact with them).

From what I remember my first playthrough didn't get me here (but that was like 2+ years ago so I may be wrong) so I don't think is related to the main quest.

So... what is this place? Anything here? My guess is that is not just for flavor but...


texts: Finishing moves for each enemy type to get extra Demon Fangs?

texts:
In Okami, after an enemy is defeated they will fly through the air in slow motion. You can receive extra Demon Fangs if you finish the enemy off with the correct special move. (For Imps, you can just slice them in half, or for Bud Ogres, you can use Blossom)

Does every enemy have a special finisher move that grants extra Demon Fangs after killing them? Which enemies require which moves?


texts: Recovering lost save files from factory reset PS4

texts:
While I wasn't home, my roommates factory reset my PS4 because they encountered some error. My account did not have PS+ so I lost a lot of savedata for all my games.

I was wondering if there was any way of recovering the files. I have used the EaseUS software to try to recover files from the PS4 hdd, and it found some deleted files. However, I am not sure which files to recover, and if I could actually put them back onto the HDD somehow.

The EaseUS software shows these files:

texts:
With the new potion brewing system in Minecraft, I thought I'd set up a farm for Nether Warts, but there seems to be a logistics problem here.

If I plant 1 Nether Wart on some soul sand, and then later harvest it, I get 1 back.

In other words, there appears to be no way to actually farm these. Is this correct?

I have to hunt down strongholds and find fresh sources for them, which I use up when I harvest, and then I have to hunt some more?

Or is there something I'm missing here, some trick to get more than 1 wart out of 1 plant?


texts:
Every battle makes use of an action queue to determine the order in which units take their turns, and some units will have more turns to act than others. I know that the ordering and frequency of a units turns are determined by their speed stat, but the manual doesn't go into any details. I'd like to know exactly how speed factors into the queue ordering to make it easier for me to compare two units where one has a higher attack stat, and the other a higher speed stat.

How does speed factor into the ordering and frequency of unit turns in the action queue?

texts: How do I unlock augmentation for weapon/armor?

texts:
This is my very first time playing a game of the Monster Hunter series.

All they say is that for unlocking augmentation option in the workshop, you must reach HR 50. Did so and still no options avaliable for augmentation.

Is anything else required (Optional quests, for example)?
Is it avaliable on pc?

texts: Ferry terminal cannot have more than one passenger terminal?

texts: The ferry terminal comes with one passenger terminal and can be upgraded with a CRUISE SHIP terminal, yet for me it says that limit is reached for an additional passenger terminal. Is this intended, that a cruise ship terminal is small enough to fit onto the dock but not a passenger terminal, or is there something I have to do?


texts:
Destiny 2 does not seem to let me pause the game at any stage of the single-player progress, be it in a campaign mission or otherwise.

I expect it to be strictly non-pausable during multiplayer matches like crucibles or raids etc., but when I press Esc in any single-player game everything would halt, letting the player take a break.

Apparently not in Destiny 2.
I can try hiding at some remote place but there is a chance that some monster eventually spawns nearby and kills me.

Do I need to be at a specific place to be able to pause the game properly, or Destiny 2 actually not a true single-player experience, so no pauses at all?

What alternative is there to take a small break (15 min.) in the game?


texts: How exactly do the Early Bird/Night Owl Town Ordinances work?

texts:
According to this site the key benefits of either the Early Bird/Night Owl town ordinance are:

The villagers of the town change their schedule to fit the new time
The villagers wake up and the shops open a varying number of hours earlier/later

But do they shift the opening hours or extend them to either 3 hours earlier/later?

E.g. if I choose the Night Owl ordinance, will the shops still open in the morning at the regular time? I cannot check right now because I'm not that far into the game and the information I find is kind of vague.

texts:
When I start my uplay client to play some ACII and try to login with valid credentials (tested on the uplay website) I get "A Ubisoft service is unavailable at the moment.".

I've googled the message and tried every solution I could find. Even created a ticket over at uplay's support website (which is currently malfunctioning). And got a very generic response saying it's probably my firewall, my host file or my router. It goes as far as suggesting I should open up ports 80, 443, etc.

In an attempt to save someone some serious head scratching, I will share the solution (that worked for me) below.

texts: What happens after my trial time expires?

texts:
I've obtained a code from Blizzard for 30 day of WoW + TBC + WotLK. I clicked upgrade on my account and it somehow upgraded with the 10 day time restriction to Cataclysm. However, the installer downloaded all expansions, including Mists of Pandaria.

I started the game with a Goblin Hunter (this race is part of the Cataclysm expansion, I believe).

On the map I see Pandaria too, and I can choose Pandaren as a playable race, but I can't choose the Monk class.

What will happen when the 10 day Cataclysm upgrade expires?

What will happen if the 30 day trial of Lich King will expire, and I'll renew for another 30 days?

Will my goblin become unplayable?

What's more - what will happen if now (in Cataclysm), I try to get to Pandaria? Is it possible?

texts: So... when you do the "Lady Boyle's Last Party" Mission, and you do not have shadow kill, and your given target is Lydia Boyle (the one in red), you will be led to music room. There, she will ask you to play a song on the piano. However, as the music room is open to guests and servants, once you kill her / knock her out, you will attract unwanted attention... how do you eliminate / neutralise her without attracting unwanted attention? (Let's say I have shadow kill tier 1. Even then, she won't turn to ash because she already noticed you. Am I right?)

I have tried to get a gyro chain a few times in Gyromancer, but never really could pull it out.

Things get worse if either monster starts throwing locks on the board.

What's a good matchup (own monster and enemy monster) and a good strategy for attaining a gyro chain?

texts: How do I find which sound name belongs to which music file?

texts:
In the Hammer Editor, I've decided on some background music I want to play, using ambient_generic, but I can't find the proper music file. I have gotten music running with the "#*[soundname]" in the sound to play, and it definitely plays music, but not the one I was looking for (I thought since the one is looking for is track 26 on the HL2 soundtrack, I would use that number in the sound name in-game - it plays music, but not the right one.)

I have looked through some of the files to find exactly what I want (that is where I found the "*#[soundname]" text), but I don't know which sound name belongs to which music. Is there a list somewhere, or how do I find it?

texts: Can you restore Roman Empire as a pagan?

texts:
I am playing the Old Gods DLC, started in the north as a Pomeranian duke, formed the Wendish Empire and have now reconquered much of the Byzantine Empire, whose title I have usurped. I stayed as a (reformed) pagan. I seem to remember that the Byzantine Emperor has two unique decisions available: mend the schism and restore the Roman Empire. Being a pagan, it makes perfect sense that mend the schism is not available to me. However, I would have expected the Restore the Roman Empire decisions to be available. To clarify, I am not saying the decision is greyed out, it is not listed as a possible decision at all.

Are there some conditions I must fulfill before the decision will appear as an option (even if greyed out)? It would be great to know the exact list of conditions.

texts: How do I troubleshoot Cryostasis' abysmal performance?

texts:
I just installed Cryostasis from GamersGate. I tried playing it but I can barely move. I have set everything at low or off, including Physx. I have turned off and on hardware acceleration (is it better on?) and nothing. I once tried to set the vertex shader to 2.0, but the game would just start with a black screen (I had to manually change the config file to get it starting).

I have a more than decent system for the game. I bought it a year after it came out.

I have 4 Gb of RAM, a 9600GT M, Intel Core 2 Duo with 2.13GHz and Windows 7 64bit. This should easily run the game even at higher settings. I updated the graphics driver.

Has anyone gone through this? Thank you

Edit, some clarifications:

When I say that I can't walk I mean the camera turns very hard, it is lagging and skipping frames. I don't know how to see my FPS count (should I install fraps?).

I recently had the idea to turn the resolution down to 800x600. In this mode the game works fine even with higher settings. Still I would like to know what's going on.

texts: How can mage Hawke beat the arishok in a duel?

texts:
As a mage, I would normally use Crushing Prison or Gravitic Sphere to disable a single strong melee enemy. But the Arishok seems to be largely unaffected by Crushing Prison, and he is able to use his charge attack to escape from Gravitic Sphere instantly even when he is at the center. Even kiting doesn't work very well because of the charge.

Perhaps due to spell choice, it may be impossible for this mage to beat him, but how would some other Hawke do it?

One of the notable 'features' of Fallout:New Vegas was the return to the series of 'Low Int Dialog' -  that is to say, special dialog options in conversations that reflected the fact that you had rolled a Very Stupid Character.

Now, I know the threshhold for Low-Int speech options is generally 3 or lower. What I'm curious about is if I set my Int to 4, (which, among other things, unlocks the Educated and Comprehension perks -  quite nice), and then wander around perpetually under the influence of Alcohol (reaping the +1 Str and -1 Int bonus/penalty at all times), giving me an effective Int of 3, will I see these low-int options? Or are the checks tied to base Intelligence, in much the same way that the checks for Perception based perks can be ruined by the '4 Eyes' trait?

texts: How do city states' gold investment quests work?

texts:
I was playing Civilization V Brave New World and a notice popped to the right saying that the city-state of Genoa will appreciate gold investment at the moment (20 turns remaining) and will return 50% profit.

I thought if I give them a huge amount of gold like 3000 gold they will return 4500 to me. After some turns I noticed that I didn't get the big flow of gold. I checked the city-state and noticed the gold investment quest is not there anymore.

How do these gold investment quests work?

texts: Wii Remotes Connect and Disconnect from Wii U

texts: When I try to use my Wii Remotes on the Wii U menu and on the Wii channel within the console, the remote will turn on, and immediately turn off. I can see the cursor on the screen. Occassionally, I can hit a button before the remote turns off, but this is very rare. When I actually make it to play a game, the Wii remote will stay on and not turn off, and will function perfectly. There is no interference or battery issues. It does it with all four remotes I own.


texts: Setting up permission in McMyAdmin with groupmanager

texts:
I have a served hosted at Fragnet.net. Here the default admin tool is McMyAdmin.

I want to set up permissions in MyMcAdmin with group manager as suggested by the fragnet knowledgebase. But even after following the steps described in the post I'm still having problems with my permissions. This is what I have done in McMyAdmin :

Configuration --> Server Type --> CraftBukkit
Configuration --> Features --> Permissions exporting mode --> GroupManager
Configuration --> Plugins --> (I have installed the following plugins)

ChestShop 3.50
CommandBin 3.31
Essentials 2.10.1
EssentialsAntiBuild 2.10.1
EssentialsChat 2.10.1
EssentialsGeoIP 2.10.1
Permissions 3.1.6
GroupManager 2.0 (2.10.1) (Phoenix)
EssentialsProtect 2.10.1
EssentialsSpawn 2.10.1
EssentialsXMPP 2.10.1
iConomy 7.0
BukkitCompat r22a
Shopkeepers 1.11
TobiMotd 2.4
Vault 1.2.23-b301
WorldEdit 5.5

In Users and Groups I have set up the following groups:

Administrators
Moderators
Regulars
Everyone

All the players are in the Everyone group at the moment and I have also added * in players to indicate that this is the default groups.

I am in the Administrators group with * and bukkit.command.* in permissions

The rest of the players don't have any specific permissions.

The problem is that no matter which permissions I give the players they don't get the permissions.

Can anybody tell me what it is that I'm doing wrong ?

I have tried asking the same question in the Fragnet forums, but I'm guessing that I might have more luck here.

texts: How can I avoid Sigma's sucking-in-rocks attack in Mega Man X 4?

texts:
I've got the majority of the final Sigma fight down to an art with Zero except for Sigma 3 when he does the attack where the big Sigma head spawns in the bottom left corner and sucks in rocks (I can post a video later if necessary).

When this attack starts I know if I can get to the top right corner and stay there I can avoid all damage, but getting up there I often take damage from the rocks being inhaled, and this tactic also completely forfeits my ability to deal damage (though I can just wait for the exhale attack which is much easier to work with). Bonus points for strategies that also work with X, but I was having this trouble with Zero.

It seems to be luck based, unlike Sigma's other 2 forms, but if there is any way to avoid him performing this attack at all that would be an even better hint.

texts: Gunfights in Watch Dogs after beating the game

texts:
So I played and finished the story mode on Watch Dogs, and it was a wonderful experience, and I loved all the action - everything from car chases to gunfighting. Now, however, I am at a loss for how I can continue gunfighting.

After doing several Gang Hideouts, they have become exceedingly rare (Likely because they offer Skill Points, and thus are limited encounters). Now all there are are Fixer Contracts, but most of these are car chases and the like. I am looking for something similar to the story missions and gang hideouts, where you can scout out an area and then either stealth around and kill them silently, or hack their grenades to make them blow up, or environmental hazards, or get locked in an all-out gunfight and so on.

My first thought was to try and hunt the cops, which was easily achieved by shooting out a few tires on civilian vehicles (I'm Vigilante reputation - a good guy), but then I remembered that killing or even injuring cops causes you to lose reputation and become a bad guy... Thus, the fight with the cops eventually turned into a car chase. This was fun for a while, managing to get to 5 star wanted rating by switching cars as needed while the helicopter sniped me, but not what I was looking for.

Now the game is becoming dull because car chases just don't do it for me, I want to sneak around and shoot people. Is there anyway to bring back the fun the story mode presented with its various gun-and-run scenarios? Perhaps a console command to make the cop-killing no longer affect your reputation, or to reset story progress without losing your weapons/accomplishments?

texts: Production Buildings radius and placement

texts:
I have two questions about the placement of Production Buildings in Anno 1404:

What is the Radius of a production building all about? I.e. if i have an iron smelter it shows me a radius for the building. What does this radius mean?
Do ressources need to go to the warehouse, even if the production facility which needs them is on the way? I.e. I have the buildings in this order:
Iron Mine - Iron Smelter - Warehouse
If the market cart gets iron ore from the mine, does it drop it at the iron smelter or will it bring the ore firstly to the warehouse and then another (or maybe the same cart) will carry it to the iron smelter?

texts: I recently bought a new controller for my PS3 and it's not working

texts:
As I said in the title I bought a new controller for my PS3 because the original one broke down.
The new controller is a Marvo GT-018 and is compatible with PS3/PC/Android.
The things is it worked really well the first time I tried it but today when I hopped on to play some games it wouldn't connect.
I've tried to unplug the PS3 , factory reset the PS3 , even tried to plug it in my PC but nothing worked.
The PC would say there's a driver error but I couldn't fix that either.
There's no tutorial, forum regarding my problem with the PS3.
Note: I can't reset the controller because it doesn't have that small hole in the back and also the controller's "turbo" buttons (which lights up the interior of the controller) is working so I'm sure it's not the controller being broken.
I also tried a different PS3 (a slim one mine being fat) and it didn't work either, it showed the player 1 light but the buttons wouldn't work

texts: Does throwing Krieg the Psycho's axe when Buzz Axe Rampaging count as melee?

texts:
A lot of Krieg the Psycho's skills (especially in the Mania tree) allow him to deal bonus melee damage. I am wondering if skills that increase melee damage affect the Buzz Axe Rampage action skill when the axe is thrown (hold right-click, then left-click, by default on the PC).

Also, what about items? Will Maylay Shields still deal bonus 'Roid Damage' when the axe is thrown? Will Strength Relics and Class Mods that increase melee damage affect thrown axes?

The Borderlands wiki states that:

  Critical hits in melee inflict ×2 damage. Weapon or skill critical hit
  bonuses do not increase this any further.

If I throw Krieg's axe while BAR is activated, will the critical hits behave like a melee critical hit or will it behave like a gun critical hit?

What if I have the Buzz Axe Bombardier skill (Bloodlust skill tree)? It's described as:

  When thrown, your Buzz Axe now has dynamite attached to it which explodes on impact.

EDIT: Two of the current answers: [1], [2] conflict on how much damage the thrown buzz axe does compared to a melee'd buzz axe attack. Can anyone clarify?

I was playing some Mortal Kombat with one of my colleagues the other day. Having never played as Smoke, I decided to give him a spin and then promptly murdered my opponent by making liberal use of Smoke's ability to teleport around the screen and deliver a hit.

While I was certainly enjoying myself, I can't help but wonder just how would one defend against this? While I suppose you could block the hits if you were on the ground, I did this more than once while both me and my opponent were airborne.

So how do I protect myself from characters with moves such as Smoke's teleport?


texts: I have an imperial following me and I don't know how to shake him

texts:
I just finished the whole civil war quest chain for the imperials, and since then I've had an imperial guy following me with his sword drawn. This wasn't too much of an issue at first, once I realized that no amount of reloading could stop it. He even follows into dungeons that normal followers can't but here is where the fun ends. Even though we are on the same side, as it were, if someone engages me in combat, he does too. The best part? He's immortal. He has no health bar so I can't damage him, but luckily, once I kill the main attackers he stops hitting me, but his sword is still drawn.

He goes with me everywhere though not when I fast travel. I'll be free from him for a bit, then he'd just pop up out of nowhere! Especially in my home. When I walk towards him, it cycles through imperial gibberish and "You never should have come here!" But i can't interact with him in any way.

I've been playing with him tagging along for about 6 hours now and he just won't leave any ideas what i could do?

I'm playing on the PS3 so I can't use the console.


texts: How can I split my Steam Library across multiple portable harddrives?

texts:
I am currently downloading my Steam Library to a 4TB Portable Harddrive which when i want to play a game, i copy off from onto my gaming PC, whichever it may be (in the event i do a new build).

At the moment while i am not close to filling up the harddrive i want to be prepared for if it happens. so what i would like to do is to be able to download games into a second, third, forth harddrive if need be, but in a way that doesn't require me in having all the harddrives plugged up at the same time when i access Steam so that Steam will show that they are all installed. ie

Laptop has Steam Installed on C:
Harddrive A has 300 games downloaded onto it and becomes full
Steam downloads onto Harddrive B until it is full
Steam still indicates that games on Harddrive A are installed even when it's unplugged
when Harddrive A is not plugged in none of Harddrive A's games are redownloaded onto another harddrive
updates for Harddrive A's games don't get downloaded unless Harddrive A is plugged in
repeat process of each other harddrive (if Harddrive B is unplugged and i have A plugged in or i get a third Harddrive C)

How can i go about doing this?

texts:
My server has worked well since 2011, however, nowadays, since updating to 1.8 (actually some subversion of 1.8, not actually 1.8, but I went directly from .2, 3 or something to .8) it lags very much.
This is an average message in my server log

[SERVER thread/WARN]: Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server overloaded? Running x behind, skipping x tick(s)

The ticks can go up to 2000+ and 70000ms.

Now, you might think I have 60 plugins with 100 players but I'm running vanilla with max 3 players. I have allocated 2GBs of RAM.

Some of the problems I'm having is that everything is slow, I can travel and the terrain generates 1 minute later (unless I'm kicked with the reason "Timed Out"), or I might hit a monster and suddenly, 30 seconds later I am dead and the mob has walked 30 blocks away.

If I resume from the save file recommended by EA, will I need to be at the same (or a similar) readiness level again to see the best ending, or will I still be able to get that same ending even with only 50% readiness level even though my war assets don't add up to enough now?


texts: Your promise to the French empire to stop converting cities has been broken

texts:
I took a missionary to Paris and tried to spread religion. Straight away the leader was annoyed and asked me not to convert any more cities.

No problem. I am going for a cultural victory and war is the last thing on my mind.

So I continue to spread religion among my own cities and somewhat distant neighbours of France.

However, after a few turns it seems I have broken my promise.

None of France's cities show anything but their Parthenon icon.

Is this something that is bound to happen all the time? To a certain extent I cannot control my religious influence.

Next time I know. Don't convert France to have them ask to  stop converting.

For worse (or much better). Kongo is spreading the religion for me to France. Could they have broken the promise as a proxy? I did not spread religion to France using religious units and I'm confused to how I broke my promise.


texts:
I've been playing on the same single-player world in Minecraft for about 3 years or more now, and I at some point I began having lower and lower FPS. What was strange was that I only had that issue inside my base.

My computer is good enough to handle that at ~40 FPS (min 35) using an i7 6700K (and it's integrated GPU, HD 530) but on my laptop I can go as low as 10 FPS. However, anywhere else I get a solid 60 FPS even on my laptop with it's integrated GPU selected (i7 3610QM and it's integrated GPU, HD 4000)

I came to the conclusion that all the lag is caused by the insane amount of redstone contraptions that my base is built upon.

My question is:
How can I reduce the lag? Is there any way to somehow reduce the FPS lag caused by the redstone/hoppers, while still keeping their functions? If there isn't an "easy" way, do you have any tips for how I can avoid this in the future?

I read some old posts claiming that hoppers are a huge lag source and that there are ways to reduce some that partially, but those posts are very old and possibly outtaded.

Some more context:
I have something called "The Vault" which is a huge nicely-decorated, 3-level room with 480 double chests and thousands of hoppers that automatically sort items into each chests (It's like a creative inventory down there, every item worth storing) and also some extra chests for surplus or uncategorised items, and a villager trading station on which I'm still working.
I also got some automatic farms nearby but nothing insane. But they do use long hopper lines and a huge item elevator to send the items directly to the Vault.

I believe that "vault" of mine is what causes all/most of the lag, because of all the hoppers that it uses.

Also, there's an item frame for every two double chests in there, so somewhere around 120 of them.

Even more context:
My whole base is built inside only a few chunks, because I started on a small island in an ocean. Also most of it is underground but I almost only expanded vertically, because the ocean is very deep. That means that all the redstone is loaded and active at the same time, right?


texts: Bug: Companions wandering far from Whiterun + Skjör resurrected

texts:
Ok, so I encoutered my first serious bug in Skyrim, and wondered what could have caused it. I am already the Harbinger of the companions, which means Skjör has been dead for a long time now. Njada Stone-arm was my follower, and I used fast travel to go somewhere else (will provide name on departure and arrival location if necessary). Both departure and arrival locations were on the far east of the map, so really far from Whiterun.

So I arrived at this place, and my follower was not there. Far in the distance, I saw a mammoth fighting someone. I wanted to check, just in case, and it was actually Aela, Njada, and Skjör fighting the mammoth. Moreover, Skjör was in a dead-like position (eyes closed, arms crossed on chest, standing straight). And, as if it was not enough, he was half in the ground, so only his chest was emerging off the ground, but he was still moving and running after the mammoth anyway (I couldn't figure if he was  Basically, I saw Skjör's dead torso sliding off the ground.

After that, I lost them, so I tried to fast travel again to get Njada back at my side, but she was not there. And from there, I couldn't find her back. I load my game and tried again, and the same thing happened (Aela and Skjör the crazy torso, Njada following them). So I loaded a previous game and went to do something else, but now I'm worried it might happen again when I fast travel again to the same area.

Unfortunately, I was not able to talk to Njada after the fight, so I don't know if she was still my follower or not.

Anyway, do anyone have any idea about why this could happen? Is it frequent for Aela to be met at totally random places in the world? Or for Skjor to behave like this?

Thanks!

texts: Is it possible to burn stacked production on industry conversion?

texts:
The Automatons' racial ability of stacked production lets them store up to 5 turns' worth (7, with research) of production on a system without having it go to waste. This is in addition to the standard 1 turn of overproduction that any race can hold.

In most contexts in Endless Space, you can inefficiently convert industry into science or dust at a 33% conversion rate. Although this "wastes" a lot of potential, it can give you a momentary boost to dust or science, which can be tremendously useful when you're on a tight turn clock to get something done, e.g. during a war.

By default, if you have stacked production as the Automatons, and you choose to convert industry into dust or science, it'll only burn what you produce that turn. Is there any way to tell the game to sell off your stacked production and convert it into dust or science?

Even in our relatively primitive culture on Earth you see this kind of thing happen: stacked production could be something like spare parts, sheets of steel, oil or coal, etc. These things can quite easily be converted into "dust" (money) by simply selling them off. To convert them into science requires a bit more creative thinking, but one way I can envision to do that would be the case of, for example, the Manhattan Project, where many giant expensive magnets had to be purchased to build calutrons for uranium enrichment. Science experiments often do need "industrial" resources to build, as well; take the LHC for instance, which is a marvel of civil engineering as much as it is a marvel of science.

Would be great if you could take stacked production from Automatons' worlds and sell it off for a quick burst of dust in a sticky situation (to support a diplomatic negotiation with dust to sweeten the pot, for instance).

texts:
I've advanced relatively far in Desktop Dungeons, unlocking all Expert classes and the Transmuter class. I've already cleared the Library and Snake Pit with an Elf Wizard, but my strategy is failing in the Crypt.

Basically what I do is find BURNDAYRAS, consume other glyphs for boosted mana, then destroy everything with 6 consecutive fireball casts. Unfortunately this strategy fails miserably in the Crypt because all monsters there have extremely high health values. I usually get far by seeking out wraiths (who have little health and die quickly to BURNDAYRAS) but then I die horribly to Frank the Zombie and other zombies.

I realize I might be losing because there are deeper strategies I don't know about. I understand mid-battle leveling but I find it difficult to do. The most complex thing I do is kill monsters at least 3 levels higher than me if I can for the bonus experience. Between those two strategies I don't see a way to win with the Wizard.

Instead of having advanced strategies explained to me, I'd like to know if I can beat the Crypt using my experience as-is. I'm looking for race/class choice that fits the following:

Capable on consistently winning using only bonus experience and some mid-battle leveling
Not entirely dependent on the dungeon's contents (for example, Wizard gets smoked without BURNDAYRAS near spawn)
Is any of the Basic, Advanced, or Expert classes.
