texts: Why can't we get the second tome on The Dungeons?

texts:
My friend and I were trying to get the achievement for getting all the tomes in the game.  We were using this video guide to get the tomes:

Now it appears that this once was glitched as there was a pit that you would fall down as shown in the video. But it has been fixed (according to the video), and here is what it looks like now from my perspective:

You can see that the ground is now solid there, but for some reason an invisible wall is in the way and we cannot get the tome.  You can see that in the video they were able to walk right across (another video pops up right as they do so, but looking at the border of the video shows they do make it across and aren't held up by an invisible wall). Surprisingly, we still unlocked the achievement for getting all the tomes after the mission was completed (this was our last mission and we had the other tome with us already).  Is there a reason the invisible wall is there?  This is on Xbox One also.


texts: How does Steam set a game's background in the Library?

texts:
Lately, I realized, that the background of a game in the Steam Library changes from time to time, and I swear, I once even recognized the background somehow from a scene I've been to in a game.

So, how does Steam set the game's background?

Does it secretly take screen-shots while I am playing, or use preset images, or is it just random?


texts: Is it possible to copy video files to the XBOX 360 hard drive with the latest dashboard improvements?

texts:
With the advent of the 250Gb XBO 360 and the latest dashboard improvements it seems that movie files (such as .avi, .wmv, etc.) still can't be copied to the console's hard drive from an external drive, is there a way to achieve this?

I recently bought one of the new, revised XBOX 360s under the impression that it could also be used as a kind of media hub and so I wouldn't have to play content from an external hard drive or by streaming from another computer. What is the purpose of the large hard drive if users are heavily restricted in what they can use it for?


texts: Do all the Monk's damage boosting abilities stack?

texts:
I play as a Monk, and I have two pocket Wizards to kill things for me. Or put another way, my two Wizard friends have a pocket Monk, to keep mobs away from them and apply juicy damage debuffs.

Anyway, we were wondering, do all the Monk's damage-boosting debuffs stack? Specifically:

Crippling Wave with Breaking Wave: +10% damage to mobs I hit
Inner Sanctuary with Forbidden Palace: +30% damage to mobs in the sanctuary
Mantra of Conviction with Overawe: +16% damage to mobs around me

Do all these abilities work together, so that mobs could be taking an extra 56% damage?


texts: I found a stronghold, searched for more than an hour, but I CANNOT FIND THE END PORTAL!

texts:
In minecraft I use eyes of ender to locate a stronghold, but when I got there, there where only useless rooms and caves where cutting through it making it difficult to navigate, and me and someone else both searched for more than an hour but could not find the end portal. I threw eyes of ender inside the stronghold to try to find the portal room but that did not work. I am running out of eyes of ender, inventory space, and weapons. I managed to get more stone pickaxes by finding the library and wrecking the walls and using cobblestone I already have. I am playing in a server where ANY cheating is untolerated, so spectator or getting the world seed is not a choice. I did find some weird rooms that you have to wreck blocks to get in. I am running out of options.

How should I proceed?

Is Buffz (TM) affected by +Item Effect?  If so, how did you determine this?


texts: How can I set up insta-sneak-kill and insta-death?

texts:
I want to play a character where all my sneak bow attacks deal an insane amount of damage and I take an insane amount of damage from enemies.

Currently my plan is to play on Legendary difficulty so that everything will most likely kill me instantly. I thought about using the console to increase my damage multiplier with attackdamagemult but I want just my sneak attacks to deal a ton of damage.

Most mods I've found affect all damage instead of just sneak damage.

Ideally I want to achieve this without any mods but I'm not opposed to using mods.


texts:

Don't include the one ribbon that appears on some event Pokémon; but: for a bonus point, do any event Pokémon come with more than one ribbon?

Tricksters (Wario, Waluigi, Dr. Eggman, or Metal Sonic)
Wild Ones (Knuckles, Bowser, Donkey Kong, or Vector)
Challengers (Yoshi, Shadow, Bowser Jr, or SIlver)

Does it matter who I pick? Are certain characters better for certain events? Or is it a purely aesthetic choice?

texts: Gamepad left analog stick is not sensitive

texts:
I have a new gamepad (bought yesterday) that works fine except for one aspect: The left analog stick is not sensitive enough when moving it to the left. For some games, this is not a problem, but for the majority of the games (namely, the ones I tend to play) this is a daunting issue.

texts: What are the easiest ways to deal with AI ships when playing as the Mantis Cruiser?

texts:
Perhaps the biggest weakness of the Mantis Cruiser (Type A, anyway) is its inability to deal effectively with AI ships. Before Advanced Edition, the general advice was to either improve your weaponry, or use an upgraded teleporter to board the enemy ship and save your boarders just before they suffocate.

Advanced Edition has added several new weapons and systems. Do any of these offer a viable alternative? I'm loathe to spend large amounts of scrap upgrading my weapons, and playing leapfrog with crew seems extremely risky.

One way of looking at it is that the Mantis A is designed for boarding, and has already "spent" scrap on that strategy. Spending further scrap on upgrading weapons to a level where they can take down AI ships seems extremely wasteful, because if you're going to use weapons that powerful, why play as Mantis in the first place?

Basically, I'm looking for a strategy that will allow me to forego upgrading the weakened weapons system if at all possible; otherwise, I'm hoping there's a 1-power weapon in AE that can perform a bit better than the hopeless loadout the ship starts with.

texts: Choosing an end point for Just Cause 2 (spoilers)

texts:
I'm only at 35% completion, but I completed the strongholds, the agency missions (the story missions, after which you get to "mercenary mode") and I seem to have run out of faction missions.

There's still plenty to do of course - discover all locations, gather all items, swing statue heads from helicopters into enemy vehicles - but I wondering if it's time to move on (to the next game on my too-long list of unplayed steam games). So is this the end of the games "main" content?

Are there any other "missions"? What do people usually do after this point?

texts: All current quests are in Markarth - and they hate me there

texts:
Early on in my quest, Dryston would not stop fighting in a fist fight so I accidentally ended up killing him. Since then I have had to kill all Markarth guards I see, so my bounty is quite high...

I have now sided with the Stormcloaks against the Empire - And all the current side quests are in Markarth. Every single one. I am at level 48, so can survive until I go through a door or move to another area, and eventually I run out of potions/arrows/strength.

It doesn't appear that I can simply surrender myself, despite trying after reading this question - they always attack rather than try and imprison me. Not sure if this is because I have a follower and a dog - the dog especially is a bit aggressive.

Anything I can do without resorting to console commands? I'd rather not have to start again unless I have to.

texts: How does Serene Grace work with Razor Fang?

texts: I plan to raise a Togekiss with Serene Grace. Togekiss can learn Air Slash which has a 30% chance of making the opponent flinch. I read from Serebii that Serene Grace doubles the chance of the secondary effect occuring, which would make the flinch chance 60%. If I make the Togekiss hold a Razor Fang, which increases flinch chance by 11.7%, will the chance of flinching become 71.7%? Or is Razor Fang's flinching buff also doubled by Serene Grace, making the overall flinch rate 83.4%?

texts: How many fossils are going to be sent back from the Faraway Museum?

texts:
According to the Animal Crossing wiki, the museum will return only 3 fossils per day, but if you've sent more than 3 in a day the rest will be returned on other days:

  There is no limit to the amount of fossils that can be sent to the Museum in a single day. However, only three will be delivered back to the player each day, with the rest delivered on succeeding days.
  http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Faraway_Museum

Assuming that's true, and that you can find up to 5 fossils in a day, then you can quickly build up a "backlog" of fossils. So if you send 10 fossils in two days, the museum will return only 6 in the same amount of time, then 3 more the day after and 1 final fossil after that.

There must be a maximum number of extra fossils that can be stored in that "backlog". Has anyone found out what that number is?

Recently bought Divinity: Original Sin 2 and have been experiencing an odd bug I haven't run into before with any games.

When I turn off my computer, when I turn it back on DOS2 appears as uninstalled on Steam. This doesn't happen EVERY time I turn it off, only sometimes.

The files are NOT uninstalled, however Steam doesn't recognize them until I try to "install" the game, at which point it discovers the already existing files. The same issue I'm experiencing is mentioned in this question
Should I be worried if Steam forgot I installed a game? However no solution is presented.

Obviously this isn't the hugest issue as steam re-discovers the game when I hit install, but it does force a 5-10 minute wait before loading the game up while it's rediscovering the files. Why is this happening in the first place and how can I make it stop?

Game bought direct from steam, stored on internal HD.

texts:
Disclaimer: I realize that most build questions have a, well, questionable presence on Arqade, I feel that my question is different enough in that it can have a definite answer.

I had an argument with a friend regarding build sequence, specifically to stacking Phantom Dancers on an AD carry. All things being equal, suppose that a typical AD carry has a Zeal. Should this AD carry turn this Zeal into a Phantom Dancers and then begin on another Zeal later or should the AD carry buy another Zeal and then upgrade either of them at later time?

I argued that buying another Zeal would be cost-effective as Zeal costs 1195G, as opposed to 1650G for the upgrade to Phantom Dancers. However, my friend argued that the first Phantom Dancers offers improved MS and AS as opposed to a second Zeal.

texts:
(This question only applies should apply to any game Just Dance 3 and on, but I'm specifically asking about JD3.)

The Xbox versions of Just Dance are able to use the Kinect, which means the player's full body is tracked, and not just the player's right hand. This means that the player can score on more moves, since some moves use the left hand.

Because of this, is there a difference in scoring between the consoles (for example, a Perfect on the Xbox gives 50 points, but a Perfect on the Wii/Playstation gives 100?)

texts:
As Humble Bundle currently offers a discount on many DmC games, I looked into getting them all. Though it proved hard to get the right games. This is mostly caused by the reboot.

I found following infos on wikipedia:

This info sadly misses the fact which games are replaced by "Devil May Cry HD Collection". Through some googling I found that the HD collection includes DmC 1, DmC 2 and DmC 3. So my understanding would be, that if I want to get the whole story game wise, I would need to get following games:

Devil May Cry HD Collection
Devil May Cry 4
Devil May Cry 5

and then play them in the order listed in the second picture.

Is that assumption correct or am I missing something?

texts: Does Soul Memory Affect Co-op or Only Invasions?

texts:
If I'm understanding correctly, Soul Memory, the collective accumulation of all souls ever obtained, ensures that the players that you meet in multiplayer are of a similar experience level compared to you.

In Dark Souls, connectability was determined purely through character Soul Level.  Does Soul Level still come into play or is it only determined by Soul Memory?

I read that invasion is affected by Soul Memory, but I figured it would be silly if co-op was also affected by it and was hoping to find out if co-op was actually based on soul level.


texts:
So just now i was playing a csgo competitive game, there was an obvious troll on the team, duo q'ing with his friend. He would randomly kill him self (kill in console), or sit in a corner of the map looking at it jumping up and down for the whole round.

It gets even worse, I would be somewhere trying to hold a spot, he would just randomly shoot me, he shot me from 100 hp to 38, shooting me 1 bullet every few seconds.

He did not get a penalty for that.

I was so frustrated that I decided to do the same thing, except for I did at the beginning of the game and I was kicked and banned for 2 hours.

So my question is how does it give out a penalty? Why doesn't it give a penalty for him shooting me? For the banned timer, I got banned once before and it was 30 min, does this timer ever reduce?

Some websites say I can pick a location on the map and the dragon will move there. How exactly I tell dragons to move to where I want.

Now, I want to go here

Is it possible at all? How can I do so?

Once in the sky, the Dragon will begin a circular flight pattern, not
unlike the Dragons you might see in the wild. You will not be able to
directly control how the Dragon flies. It will stay in the area that
you mounted it, unless directed to fly somewhere else via the world
map. Note that you cannot fast travel on a Dragon to a major hold
like Solitude or Whiterun, nor can you fly from the island of
Solstheim to Skyrim or vice versa.

texts: What does the squirt do that stays in Bastion?

texts:
So I started playing Bastion and so far have the first 3 cores, but there's something that's bugging me.

After getting the first core and returning back to the Bastion (and getting the Squirt Lure), a squirt stays with you at the Bastion and seems to do... nothing.

When it initially appeared, it seemed to like me when I interacted with it (it had the floating hearts around it).  But the next time I did, the hearts does not appear any more and it gives an angry look.  To be precise, I talked to it and rolled away not really paying attention.  Then Rucks (the "Stranger") mentioned something along the lines of, "that's not how you treat it."  Now, every time I try to interact with it, it gives the angry look and nothing else happens.  Eventually I cannot interact with it any more until I leave and return back to the Bastion but it still gives me the angry look.

Did I do something wrong to hurt it's feelings?  (I guess I damaged it when I rolled away)  What sort of actions do/can I do to make it like me again?  Or am I just worrying about nothing and it's just the way it behaves until I progress further into the game?

So far, everything else seems to have a purpose except for that squirt.  Does it even do anything else or is it just there for show?

texts: What would be the easiest way to detect if a player breaks a block in Minecraft 1.16?

texts:
I want to add block breaking detection and right click detect to a datapack I’m working on. I want this to be multiplayer friendly and I need to know who broke the block.
To add right click detection is easy.  I just have a scoreboard for using a carrot/fungi on a stick. Now, I want to add block break detection, but I also want to know where the event occurred as a part of the detection.
This is we’re I’m stuck.  I can use raycasting for location, but I don’t know how to detect if there is a block that was broken. I can’t use a bunch of scoreboards for each individual block. I don’t know if I can use loot tables to add a player uuid to a special drop as nbt. Although for that method, it probably won’t work because in that same datapack I have a loot table for each block already.
I have to have right click detection and block break detection both using a carrot/fungi on a stick.  So using used pickaxe/other tool scoreboard won’t work either.  Raycasting also won’t work since it isn’t multiplayer friendly because you can’t detect who broke the block.
If you have any questions or if any of this is unclear please comment below. Thanks for helping.

texts: Can the Test of Faith achievement in Mirror's Edge be done piecemeal?

texts:
Test of Faith is the achievement for completing the game without shooting anybody.

I completed the game and was careful not to shoot anyone, but did not get the achievement. So I was wondering if I could go back and play a chapter where I might have shot someone and still get the achievement?

Additional Info

The only time I fired a gun aside from the time that you have to shoot the caravan, was when I was fighting two guys at once, disarmed the first one and went to attack the other one in melee but my attempt to drop the weapon I took from the first one didn't work, so I ended up shooting him. I then let him kill me (the shot didn't kill him) so I hoped it wouldn't save that.

So I was hoping I could go back and just replay that chapter and get the achievement... but that didn't work either.

So basically I think the answer to my question is no, you have to play straight through it without ever shooting anybody, but I thought I'd put it out there and see if anybody knows any different.

texts: Is it possible to run the game windowed at 1920x1080?

texts:
Why would one want to do this since one may as well just run the game full screen?  Well, I will tell one why one would want to do this.

I have to turn vsync on to eliminate jagged-edge artifacts that occur while panning from side to side.  One of the downsides to doing this is a slight degree of mouse lag that, for me, renders the game almost unplayable.  While playing Portal 2 a few weeks back, I learned that running the game windowed at 1920x1080 actually eliminated the mouse lag introduced by vsync.  Not only that, you couldn't even tell it was running in windowed mode.

I tested running Duke Nukem in windowed mode and, much to my delight, the mouse lag issue went away.  However, Duke Nukem's max resolution while windowed is something like 1600x900 (if that's wrong, I'll edit this as soon as I get back from my next playing session).

If I could get this to run in a 1920x1080 window, I'd be one happy Duker.

I found system.ini and located the spot where it contains the window size and resolution, but it's all funky.  In Notepad, there are spaces in between all the characters in the file.  In Notepad2, there's a NUL.  Editing this file in either text editor appears to corrupt it.  Any ideas how to get around this?


texts: Is it possible to reach Max Stats in Fallout: New Vegas?

texts:
Starting SPECIAL

STR 5, PER 5, END 5, CHA 1, INT 10, AGL 5, LUK 9 (Same as 10 when it comes to skill points)

Now you can improve your SPECIAL stats in the following ways;

STR: +1 Implant
PER: +1 Trait (Four Eyes) +1 Implant
END: +1 Perk (Intense Training) +1 Implant
CHA: +0
INT: +0
AGL: +1 Trait (Small Frame) +1 Implant
LUK: +0

Now with these base stats you get the following skill points;

60 Skill points for the first 4 levels until you get the Educated Perk.
15 Skill points for the Tag Skill perk if you choose to take it.
442 Skill points for the next 26 levels.
A total  of 517 skill points.

With the following stats all skills will start at 17 with the exception of Barter and Speech which will be at 9 and Medicine which will me at 27.

You will gain additional 16 skill points to each skill with the exception of Explosives from skill books.

With all that you still need 861 skill points to max out your character. Since we know we can only get 517 skill points in the game that makes us short of 344 skill points.

Now to my question, are my analysis correct and you cannot max out your character Abilities and Skills or am I missing something?

NOTE: This character configuration makes the game extra hard when playing on Hardcore mode especially at the beginning of the game!

Thank You.

texts: Running Multiple Minecraft Installations on Linux

texts:
So I was reading the following trying to solve a problem I'm having, but none of the answers were good enough for my specific situation.  Essentially, I'm trying to run multiple versions of Minecraft on the same Linux machine.  I'm pretty sure that there is someway of writing a Bash script to change the folder where the app data for the game is stored.  However, it's been awhile since I've written even the simplest bash scripts and I want to make sure I don't f-anything up.

Does anyone know what command I would need to run to maintain multiple installations of Minecraft for LINUX?  Thanks!

   Its for the quest to reforge Gauldur's amulet in the questline Forbidden Legend.

Update:
I've bruteforced the solution, see my answer, if someone can point out the hints I've missed I'll accept their answer, otherwise I'll accept my own in a few days.

texts:
I'm using the ferret rune for companion. Now I have 2 ferrets running around collecting gold and adding paltry DPS to my arsenal, which is awesome.

What I don't understand, however, is why they keep glowing when they pick up gold. It doesn't happen every time, but it only happens when they collect gold piles. They will get a giant blue glowy shield (far, far larger than the size of the ferret) for a few frames, then it will go away. It comes with a sound effect and everything.

What is going on? Do these ferrets have some kind of extra ability on top of the stated tooltip?


texts:
Having read this for a general idea of how Radio Stations work, and having experimented a bit, I'm wondering whether having separate multiple radio stations mean that multiple signals will go out at regular intervals?

I know that having multiple stations together as one unit would just mean that one signal would be sent faster, even more so by adding more charismatic people and so on.

So for example, if we have two separate radio rooms, do two signals go out every signal period?


texts: How do I play Minecraft Pocket Edition with my niece on LAN?

texts: My niece and I love playing Minecraft: Pocket Edition together, but since the new update (0.12.3) we can't seem to play it. How should I fix this?


texts:
Previously, I asked this question which touched on party make-up, but I'm at a point where the answers to this question are no longer sufficient.

I have several characters at or over level 50, several dozen characters that are low level, and hundreds of growth eggs of various levels. I have a selection of 4*, 5*, and the occasional 6* item. And I have over 100 abilities acquired. Despite this, I'm not able to defeat the most difficult encounters in events.

What are some optimization strategies that I should be employing? Specifically, what common optimized tactics should I be utilizing, and what are the best characters/soul breaks/items to implement these tactics?


texts: How to disable command block logging into the log files in minecraft

texts:
Hi, I have a single player world which is opened to LAN to let my friends play while I am AFK. I have a lot of command blocks running in that world and those commands are all logged in the log files.

So, my question is, how to only log player commands and chat?

Correct me if I am wrong, thank you.

texts: What should I know when playing WoW for the first time?

texts:
I am considering trying out WoW. I don't want a subscription, I doubt I'll be hooked and if I have to grind then I am instantly quitting or spending the remaining time exploring (then quitting).

But as for strategies, help, common early game mistakes, etc., what should I know? Do I need to join a guild? Can I play through most of the game content without one? How do I find a guild? Questions like these are what I'm interested in having answered.

I am likely only going to try out the trial and quit when it's done. It's really just to see what the game is about rather than actually try to play it through.


texts:
The achievement states "Build every Improvement in your home system" but what does it mean by "every". Some improvements are not possible as they require a planet type that may not be in your home system.

Is this possible for example if your home system does not have an asteroid belt - as without that you can't build a "Deep Space Facility"?

Also do you also need to build an "Invulnerable Empire" improvement?


texts:
I read somewhere that Skyrim just received a new patch that added the possibility to get an HD Texture Pack.

texts: When a Pokemon gets infected by Pokerus, does it inherit the Pokerus' days left to be cured?

texts:
Last night I was capturing and infecting low level Pokemon to give away on Wonder Trade.

I was using an infected Hypno as an infection source, this Hypno contracted Pokerus 3 days ago (and decremented its counter to 1 by being on the party on the date roll over)

When doing the wonder trades the clock hit the 00:00, and newly infected Pokemon were suddenly cured, even when they where just infected a few minutes prior.

The thing that puzzles me its that i was playing Pokemon Moon so the day reset should have been on at noon not at midnight (as mentioned on When does Pokérus in Pokemon Moon have a chance of being cured: midnight game time or midnight system time?)

So, is this a glitch, or are the "days to cure" inheritable? The entries on Bulbapedia an Serebii don't mention this at all


texts: Changing Minecraft entity rendering distance

texts:
I've noticed that, on some various servers I play on, entities are not rendered even if I am a short distance away, like ~40 blocks. Other servers I play on seem to be capable of rendering entities at enormous distances. I don't believe it's a server performance thing, as some of the more higher-performance networks I've been on, like Hypixel, have this short render distance as well.

Is there a way to edit this distance? It'd improve various aspects of my gameplay.

possibly related: yesterday, when setting up a small Spigot server on my computer, I noticed "view-distance" (or a similar name) in the server.properties file. Is this the entity render distance? It most likely isn't the regular render distance, because that's easily changeable on clientside from player to player.


texts:
I know that damage is calculated based on multiple variables:

weapon strength (weapons can be upgraded)
weapon type
shield strength (hence fighters receive more damage than full size starships)
attacker position (without modification, side and rear shields are less effective than forward shields)

Despite this the damage range can be phenomenal, ranging from double digits right up to this (damage of 7706!):

Can anyone please explain how damage is calculated? I'm curious to know especially why there can be such large apparent discrepancies.

texts:
I've got a fishing job from the thieves guild and it takes place in Markarth. The individual that I'm supposed to steal from is named Imedhnain, and he is located in Arnleif and Sons Trading Company. I have been unable to find him anywhere else but there, although he may leave at certain times of the day - I'm not sure. In any case, when I break in to Arnleif and Sons at night, as soon as I break in I am seen by him and Lisbet, as they're having a conversation at a counter directly in front of me. I've tried breaking in at different hours of the night, but every time they're there at the counter. Also, I've tried using an invisibility potion before lockpicking the door, but the potion seems to expire right when I enter.

How exactly do I go about stealing from this fool if I get caught every time I break-in?


texts: Does travelling with Danse after Blind Betrayal impact Brotherhood of Steel reputation?

texts:
Once you've completed the Blind Betrayal quest by saving Paladin Danse he is exiled from the Brotherhood, but he is still available as a companion. Under these conditions, asking Paladin Danse to accompany you will prompt a warning that while he is travelling with you both of you will be considered enemies of the Brotherhood. Any Brotherhood of Steel members that you come across will be kill-on-sight.

Now, obviously, fast-travelling to the Prydwen and stopping by Maxson's quarters to say hello would cause some real issues. But what about the random-spawned Knights and Vertibirds that you'll encounter in the wasteland?

Are there any long-term ramifications to killing randomly-spawned Brotherhood members while you are with Paladin Danse? Will killing these enemies hurt your relationship with the Brotherhood once you're no longer travelling with Danse?


texts: I have a scoreboard objective called ammoCount. That is how I am tracking the amount of ammo players have, but I would like to put some items in the players' inventories to show them how much ammo they have. So, if a player has 10 ammo, they will have 10 blocks in their inventory, if they have 64 ammo they will have a stack of blocks, and if they have 65 ammo they will have a full stack plus an extra. Is this possible?


texts: Transmog set in WoW that looks like a white space suit

texts:
There is a caster/cloth transmog set in World of Warcraft that has some casters (I've seen a mage and warlock thus far) look like they're in a completely white space suit. It's unbelievably cool looking and I'd love to get the set for my mage and priest. The head piece looks like an astronaut helmet and everything else is totally white. I'm so sorry for sounding vague, but surely someone here who is into transmog knows what I'm talking about?

** NOTE **

I'm still trying to search for the armory link of an individual I've seen in this suit. I unfortunately don't remember their characters name. Will update this thread if I find it.


texts: How much gold do champion kills give on Proving Grounds?

texts: There is a reduction in gold per champion kill on Proving Grounds. I play a lot of it, but never really had the time to watch for the gold gain because, unsurprisingly, I'm usually in combat when I get kills. So how much gold does a kill get you, including when the target has a kill/death streak?

texts: How can 2 players play coop on Nintendo Switch Lite with only 1 external pro controller?

texts:
I have a Nintendo Switch Lite and a USB pro controller. I want to play coop, with one player using the built in controls and another using the Pro controller plugged in through the USB port.

However, the switch seems to only recognize the controller as 1. It does not differentiate between the built in controls and the controller input.

How can I fix that?

texts: Buying games across countries with GameTreeOnline

texts:
I am currently sitting in Sydney for a summer break and I want to buy games from GameTreeOnline.  Unfortunately, their 'security' mechanisms prevent me from using my bank account while in Sydney, though they would let me purchase if I were willing to do a cross country transaction with an Australian bank account, so it would be legal.  However, I can ask my friend to purchase it on my account for me.  Now I am curious if said sites would allow me to purchase in the US and then turn around and download from Australia, or would they block my download (in which case my money would be wasted because the main reason I'm buying the game is to play it over the next month).

So, precis:

Can I have my friend in the states buy the game from GameTreeOnline and then download the game in Australia?

I don't think there's already a clone question, if there is I apologize but I didn't find it.
It's kinda of a spoiler but not really a spoiler.
So I'm using this strategy and I have 142 flags:

The thing is since flag #50 I'm not noticing changes in the behaviour of the AI. Basically I'm winning easy, I have just to restore the Pumpkin shield on the plants.
I really don't care about doing 1000 flags so should I expect some increase in difficulty or is that it?
The version is Game of the Year.


texts:
I just hit level 20 and I want to start getting runes. I know is hard to choose one set of runes that will fit most of the top champions, but I want to use one that I can use for my main tops (Nasus and Jax, but planning on trying more).

So I want to choose one set of runes good enough for an average top laner, before choosing a champion.

Any ideas?


texts:
One of my worlds, I use /gamerule doDaylightCycle false to freeze the day/night cycle.

The problem is, whenever I exit and reload the world, it reverts back to doing the day/night cycle. I have to manually type the command everytime I enter the world.

None of my other worlds have this problem, instead they save the previous gamerule when reloading the world.


texts: What determines the title given to players at the end of a battle in Crash Team Racing?

texts:
I'm playing the original CTR and I'm wondering what triggers the messages displayed for each player at the end of Battle \ VS modes, i.e. "dominator", "speed demon", etc.

I couldn't find it on Google or any cheat code pages. Is there any official or unofficial site ever covered this?


texts:
In World of Warplanes the default keybinding 'E' is set to "use flaps", when trying to use flaps on the T1 planes(biplanes), it simply says "you don't have any", but on higher tier planes (most of the single wings from what I gather), nothing happens. Speed doesn't change much, maneuverability doesn't seem to get any better, either.

So my question is what do flaps actually do, are they more effective at higher tiers?

kind of related question but different game entirely. so it's rules/physics may not apply


texts: How can I reach a wingmate who is inside the exclusion zone of a star?

texts:
A wingmate of mine is out of fuel, and needs my help. I'm able to see his beacon, but the problem is I can't get to him; whenever I approach the beacon from supercruise, I am placed several thousand kilometers away, which is not ideal.

Upon doing some research on fuel rats sources, I think this has something to do with the fact that he is so close to the star. How can I reach my wingmate for a refuel?


texts: Can you play with your personal drones in DRONE The Game?

texts: I have seen in videos that D.R.O.N.E. The Game that you were not able to actually compete with your own created drones, because the developers had not made it available yet.  Have they made it so you can compete with your own created drones?


texts:
I've installed Quake 3 with the Q3 Pro Installer, and I'm not sure where the thing put my q3config.cfg file, if at all.

Now, I know that the file is usually in [my directory of choice]\baseq3, but the Pro Installer puts the file somewhere in my AppData folder, and I can't bloody remember where it specifically is!

I faintly remember that it is supposed to be somewhere inside/close to AppData/Local/Temp/, but I've searched there with no results.

Where exactly can I find my q3config.cfg? If the installer doesn't place one to begin with, where should I place it?


texts: Unit tile swap. Works one way and not the other, Why?

texts:
When there are two of my units adjacent to each other, you can perform a unit swap between their two hex tiles. You do this by dragging the cursor of one unit over the other. The cursor turns white, let go of the mouse button and the units swap tiles.

I find that sometimes I select unit A and find that trying to swap with unit B does not work. However, switching to using unit B to initiate the swap does work. Why is this?

texts: What are all the ways to get the Stop 'n Swop items in Banjo-Kazooie?

texts:
I know that the Stop 'n Swop items were never able to be used for their intended purpose. If they had worked out, it would have made for some really cool features.

Anyway, I'm curious about how to get to them. Can all (or any) of them be obtained without hacking? For example, the only way I know of to get the Ice Key is to have a levitate code on to fly over the wall.


texts: Finding discrepancy on work end date and stay duration

texts:
It is day 27, December 19, and the new Access Permit has been introduced to merge the identity supplement and entry permit.

Later in the day, a woman enters my booth claiming entry for work purposes, for a time of 3 months.

Checking the work end date on her Work Pass, I notice that the work pass implies that she's working for 4 months.  I try to highlight the discrepancy between the access permit time and and work end date, but it solely gives me a "No Correlation" error.  On this note, I quit the game and dash over here to pose my question.

How do you highlight the discrepancy between the work end date and stay duration?

Note: Highlighting the two individual values worked on the entry permit, but not the access permit.


texts: Which strategy is the most efficient for Clickers?

texts:
I'm finding Clickers to be very hard.

As far as I can see, you have a few options:

Craft a shiv, sneak up, grab Δ, then shiv Δ.
Enhance your melee weapon (if you're far enough), which also requires scissors and tape.

Which of these is more efficient resource wise? I'm thinking that since I have the shiv upgrade now, trying to grab and shiv would be best.


texts:
I can feed my frog fireflies and other delicacies to get flowers so I can get better butterflies.

They seem to be pretty random, though. Is there any logic to when I get fireflies/frog treats, so I can ensure I have lots of flowers to attract the butterflies I want?


texts: What happens when Frog picks up a golden weapon?

texts:
To play as Frog, a character needs to have the golden frog pistol stored as their alternate weapon, and start a run with it.

If, for example, Fish had the golden frog pistol then picked up a golden machine gun, the machine gun would be stored as Fish's alternate weapon after going through a level ending portal. If Frog goes through a portal with a golden weapon other than the golden frog pistol, will this replace Fish's alternate weapon?

texts:
Currently I'm in a clan in Diablo 3 RoS, but now I would like to create my own clan.

So I looked for information on the internet and found an article "Reaper of Souls™ First Look: Clans and Communities", that describes process, but for some reason I can't repeat it. I'm able to create communities but no clans.

Was this option removed or something changed in a process described?

texts: What Necromancer summons are considered 'minions' and 'pets"?

texts:
The Bones of Rathma set, the Jesseth Arms set, the Grisly Tribute passive, and the Aberrant Animator passive all affect 'minions', but which Necromancer summons are actually considered as minions?

The following skills are what I can find that are possible minions. Are they correct? Are there any missing ones?

Command Skeletons
Command Golem
Skeleton Mage
Revive
Army of the Dead
Bone Spirit

Also, am I correct in assuming that pet boosting items such as Tasker and Theo and the Enforcer gem affect all minions as well?


texts: Why is it raining only over generated bodies of water?

texts:
On Minecraft I notice that it rains only over water (links to YouTube video showing the issue better):

I haven't played Minecraft for a while: is this a recent change that I missed?
I first noticed this on a server so I tried single-player, but however the issue persists.

I've tracked it down to generated bodies of water (e.g, not water that the player has put down or any part of the world that is modified where water flows), that is:

Rivers;
Streams;
Lakes;
Sea

If I dig a large hole and fill it with water from a nearby natural water source (where the rain is falling), rain will not fall over the body of water I created.

Thinking that this was an issue with the GPU, I upgraded the GPU (small upgrade, but a huge difference and I needed the upgrade anyhow) but the problem persists. I've also tried reinstalling the game (I have not tried an earlier version (snapshot) of the game however, and I'll do that shortly) and that didn't work either.

I have this issue in the Savanna and Desert biomes, and I haven't tried another biome type.

What's going on here?

So I've gotten 2 of 3 pendants in my Link to the Past: Randomized run, but I don't have the Master Sword, because I can't find the bow to get to the Eastern Palace boss. I am able to skip the barrier with the cape, but can I beat Agahnim without the Master Sword?

UPDATE: Defeated Agahnim with normal sword before getting moon pearl. Now to trial-and-error my way to finding the Moon Pearl in the Light World...mnugh...


texts: I started playing with a friend of mine and we got to somewhat level 20 and we started to up our difficulty from normal on up. (no idea what it's called exactly) After that we still noticed it was very easy and we went to the highest diffculty possible(Not the one you unlock at level 60) and it was still way too easy. We never die or get in danger. Is this normal in Diablo 3 or are we missing something? We're level 40 now. We played from level 30 - level 40 in the highest possible difficulty

texts: What are the difference between tanks from different countries?

texts:
I want to find out what the difference between defensive and offensive "specializations" of tanks in the various trees are. Something like (and this is what I heard a friend mention) "German tanks are heavier armored and have precise guns, French are just bulky and Russians have fast tanks).

Basically, where do I go if I want a hard-hitting Destroyer, an Arty that aims the fastest, or the fastest light tank (among other questions)?


texts: Nintendo Switch clock speed on USB power

texts: Presumably to conserve battery life, the Nintendo Switch operates at higher GPU and memory clock speeds in docked mode than it does in handheld mode. What about if the Switch is not connected to the dock but is plugged to a high-wattage USB Power Delivery source using the USB-C port? If the power source provides at least as much power as the dock, does the Switch run at dock speeds, or does it remain at handheld speeds and just use the external power to charge the battery?

How often can you harvest Sleeping Tree Sap from the Sleeping Tree in the Sleeping Tree Camp?

Can anyone clarify this?

I have the game for the PC and Xbox-360.  Answers for other systems (should be the same) will be considered.

texts:
I want to break the bedrock blocks on top of the end gateways, but I don't know how.
I only know how to break bedrock from below, so I can break the bedrock blocks underneath the end gateway but not above. It involves pushing an end crystal into a bedrock block and pulling it with a sticky piston. The method can't break bedrock from above because end crystals can only be moved by pushing its pedestal.
Does anyone know how? I couldn't find any Youtube videos on it.
I am playing on 1.16.10

texts: How can I duplicate my firework rockets in Minecraft?

texts:
In creative mode, I can create a firework rocket, and set it off as many times as I want by right-clicking somewhere. However, I want to set up a red-stone circuit with dispensers to set off many fireworks at once with a nice spread, and a pre-programmed pattern.

In order to do this, I need the ability to duplicate rockets. Creating them manually takes so much time, because I have to go one at a time to collect gunpowder, paper, dyes, etc.

Is there a way I can duplicate my completed rockets in Creative mode? This would save lots of time. What would you suggest?

I am running my world using the minecraft_server.jar provided by minecraft.net. I can install additional plugins there as needed, unless of course I can already do this with Creative-mode only.


texts: What happens to unsold items on World of Warcraft Auction House?

texts:
I just went through dungeons to get my level boosted but some of the items I found (Rare items) were being sold on the AH. What I want to know is that what will happen when I put something up for bid and no-one bids on it. Will the item come back to my backpack or will it just disappear?

Overnight I had a bid up but I'm not sure where they went. I checked my 'Auctions' tab and they weren't there and neither were they in my backpack. I also cancelled a bid because I got the prices wrong yet the item didn't return to me.

texts:
Often you'll see Zerg players in ZvT burrow banelings next to marines and try to bait marines into them with mutas. But the Terran player seems to occasionally scans the area to check for burrowed banelings.

Since the mutas bait out the scan anyways, how viable is a technique to bluff burrowed banelings and bait more scans that end up being useless?

texts: Is there an non evil outcome for the Preservation of Beauty quest?

texts:
The entire plot of the Preservation of Beauty quest looks bad (as in evil alignment).

There are 6 people you can sell to the Decanted:

Coty
Rhin
Beautiful woman from Sundermun the Elder
The Translator from the Old Cell Block
Herja, the prisoner in Little Nihliesh
Bourras, standing outside the clinic in Chiurgeon Slump

Per the walk-through, if I sell 2 of those people, you can drive the Decanted off.

I'm not playing naughty, so I want to find a way to complete this quest without selling anyone. Is it possible?

Or the only way to "solve" this quest in an non-evil way is to skip it?

NOTE: I will find a job for Coty later and I will surely not selling Rhin!

texts: Can't connect to Steam servers and other gaming servers on Windows 10

texts:
I have been having an issue with Steam. Whenever I try to log into it, it tells me that it is having trouble connecting to the Steam servers, and won't let me log in. I used to be able to use Steam perfectly fine, but I started getting issues after I moved.

I have tried re-installing, deleting ClientRegistry.blob, and everything else. I even tried replacing my router, as it was a bit out of date. Despite all of these, none of them have helped.

I am also having issues connecting to the Warthunder servers outside of Steam.  It says I have limited Ethernet, but I am able to use the internet on my computer. Another thing that is not working are .io websites. I am unable to connect to them.

Despite these things, I am able to use the browser version of steam.

texts:
There are a number of things about Overwatch shots that are a little mysterious to me:

Aim Penalty

According to the description for Overwatch, there's an aim penalty:

  Fire on the first enemy that moves within your line of sight, with a
  penalty to aim.

What exactly is the penalty to aim? I've heard various people say -15% or even -30%, but I haven't seen any definitive confirmation.

Dash Defense?

In the previous XCOM game, XCOM: Enemy Unknown/Within, dashing provides a defense boost. Is this still true in XOMC 2, and if so, how much does a unit's defense increase?

Cover Defense?

If a unit was in cover before they move and trigger a reaction shot, does that unit still have the defense bonus that the cover provided, or do they lose it completely during the reaction shot?


texts: How to wind cable controllers with minimal damage

texts:
In the past at my place when a PS2 Controller was away (ones which came with the PS2)  the cable would be wound around the controller vertically in the center so it sits between the 2 analog sticks, however after a while the outer layer of the cable would get twisted and start to tear exposing internal wires.

This was back when i was a kid so i had no control over who did what on a shared PS2, Now that i own 2 of my own (PAL and NTSC) I'm kinda self consonance that when i put the controllers away in the same way i might end up damaging the wires and be unable to find replacements so at the moment i just very slowly and loosely wind the cable around.

So i am wondering, how can i wind up cable controllers (particular PS2) so that i do as little damage to them to ensure longevity.

Does anyone have a good strategy? I already know that I should aim for the eyes.
