texts: What Crystals should I use for Sniper/Gunslinger?

texts: I am working on leveling up a Sniper, and I want to know what stat my Color Crystals should increase.

Should I go with Power or Crit Rate (for a DPS Sniper/Gunslinger)?


texts: Why won't my follower follow me after the "A Night to Remember" quest line?

texts:
At the end of the "A Night to Remember" quest line, my follower came with me when I was teleported to the Misty Grove. Once there, I told my follower to wait.

Now, when I was teleported back to the real world, my follower's not with me: presumably because he's still waiting at the Misty Grove. I've waited for some time and still he hasn't come back.

How can I get my follower back?


texts:
I followed this video to get a system to allow players to fly in survival mode:

I modified the system by giving it a "toggle item' that allows the player to disable flying whenever they find it annoying or otherwise unwanted.

Sometimes whenever I use the toggle item the barrier block gets removed and the player falls to the ground as intended, but other times the barrier block remains and stays in the air, which means there's floating invisble blocks in midair, which is incredibly unwanted.

I'd prefer to just delete all barrier blocks within 10 blocks of the player whenever they stop flying, so I'd like you clever folks to help me.

How do I delete ALL Barrier blocks within 10 blocks of the player with command blocks?


texts: How to record all player actions in minecraft

texts:
I'm trying to work out a way to record all actions a player makes in minecraft, including moving, stopping moving, changing direction, placing a block (and block location/type), breaking a block (and block location/type), eating, pushing buttons, pulling levers, opening doors, attacking mobs (being hit by mobs) etc.

  Are +maximum damage and +minimum damage enchantments factored into weapon DPS?

I'm trying to calculate the DPS of an item in diablo 3

Here is the item I'm watching.

The problem is on the maximum damage calculation. Here are the given values

minDamage : 627.0
maxDamage : 1141.5
Damage : +50%

The item attributes are the following

Min damage : 120
Delta damage : 103
Max damage : 120 + 103 = 223

Then there is a bonus on the min and the delta

Min bonus : 298
Delta bonus : 342
Max bonus : 298 + 342 = 640

So the damage should be :

(Min damage + min bonus) * dmg multiplier : (120 + 298) * 1.5 = 627
(Max damage + max bonus) * dmg multiplier : (640 + 223) * 1.5 = 1294.5

So there is a problem with the max damage. I found 1294.5 when blizz says 1141.5.

Did I miss something ?

Thank you !

So I just caught a 634CP Venonat, and there was much rejoicing.

This was recorded in my journal for future generations to view and marvel at:

I immediately hit Evolve on it, because it was fragging strong and I had enough candies.

It then proceeded to vanish into stray electrons. It's not in my Pokémon collection, it's not turned into a Venomoth, it's not re-integrated itself Dr. Manhattan style after restarting the app multiple times. I am 100% positive I didn't send it to the Professor to be ground into Torgo's Executive Powder.

Has anyone hit this particular bug before? Should we just chalk this up to a weird edge case and curse the gods?

texts:
I heard that hosting a minecraft server (public) is super super secure.  Like, you'd need a government hacker to hack into it (I'm not talking about client-hacking) to gain access to your system.

In order for other players to play on your server, you have to give others your public IP.  Many times I've heard that that is a big no-no.  I would really like to host a minecraft server but I'm currently in a network of other computers that shouldn't be tampered with (or, hacked in to from the minecraft server).

I can accept that if there is no solution is the answer, than that's okay as well.  I am currently using a macintosh computer.

texts: Can I use the Khalim's Will flail after completing the Khalim's Will quest?

texts:
The Khalim's Will flail is a quest item in Diablo II. Crafting it is the main task in Act III. Once crafted, it is used to smash the Compelling Orb and gain access to the Durance of Hate. When you smash the Compelling Orb, you complete the Khalim's Will quest, and the flail disappears.
Not only does the flail used to smash the orb disappear, but any party members who have the quest completed when the orb is smashed will have their flails disappear as well.
However, the flail is a pretty good weapon. It's better than the weapon my Paladin was using when we defeated the Council. Here are the stats:

Khalim's Will
One-Hand Damage: 1 to 15
Durability: 30 of 30
Mace Class - Very Fast Attack Speed
+50% Increased Attack Speed
+40 to Attack Rating
Adds 1-40 lightning damage
6% Mana stolen per hit
6% Life stolen per hit

texts:
A major part to Tap My Katamari is the bonuses provided by having The Cousins. Bonuses are provided at varying levels, but are somewhat random, in both mechanic and strength.

On top of that, the player may spend candy to re-roll any of the abilities. With the greatly increasing cost to upgrade the level of a Cousin, it can sometimes be a better option to simply re-roll an unwanted ability.

That said, without knowing what possible upgrades or downgrades you may receive, it is hard to work out if it is actually worth rerolling a Mojo ability. Am I more likely or less likely to receive a Mojo ability more in line with my play style? If I roll a more powerful version of the same Mojo, how much of a benefit will I receive?

It is almost impossible to determine the answers without knowing what all the Mojo possibilities are.

What are the possible Mojo abilities, and what are the varying strengths?

texts: My xbox 360 does not keep my netflix account login information

texts:
Some steps I've taken:

Opened up port 443 on my router for my 360.
Deleted the Netflix app, then clear my Xbox system cache.
Some people have suggested that my Xbox could be associated with a different Netflix account, however, the last time I tried to make an account, I was not able to complete it because I did not have a credit card, thus I was unable to access the service. Even further, when I log into the old account on my PC, it gives me no information about any devices being associated with that account, plus my wife and I deleted absolutely every trace that we could of Netflix from the Xbox.
I have also gone into the developer/settings mode in the netflix application, and telling it to forget my credentials has had no effect on my next login.

We are able to log into the new account, but if we exit and start the application up again, we have to put in our login credentials again. My wife has an older Xbox that we were debating on trying to use, just in case it actually did end up that my Xbox is retaining some sort of information or Netflix associated the account with my Xbox and for some reason cannot disassociate it.  When we tried logging in through this xbox, we faced the same problem.

Has anyone else ran into this problem (it's littered all over the internet with no real solution), and fixed it?

Update
I had been on the phone with a Netflix support person for an hour trying most of the above steps, with no success, so they directed me to the xbox support.  They had me do the same steps, and when it failed, they directed me back to the Netflix people.  They had suggested that some of the netflix servers were having issues, but I don't think this is the issue for a few reasons:

When I do put my credentials in, it logs me in first time with no issue.
The only real problem is that Netflix isn't remembering my email/password, which should be part of the application logic, and is unlikely an issue networking.

In the remote chance that it has anything to do with the Netflix network, I'm in Ontario, Canada, and it must be something where after a successful login, the server is supposed to send the application a message like "everything is okay, you should store the users email/password," and for some reason, that message doesn't get passed or processed properly, and since this problem seems to be very infrequent among other users, I have to assume it's an issue with a server, even though it shouldn't be.

To any Netflix XBox 360 application developers: The application shouldn't wait for validation before saving credentials!  It should be within the users own intelligence to be able to save the appropriate email/password information.  It's not good support to have this on-going problem for months.

To people having the same issue, please leave relevant information such as your ISP and general location (city/region/country), as we might be able to collectively solve this issue.  I am from Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, and my ISP is EyeSurf.

Update/Found the problem, not the solution: So, I finally got around to checking out the Netflix log, and I noticed this error:

  SLPlayer|SilverlightNccpErrorHandler|Warning|Nccp AuthenticationRenewal transaction failure, new credentials requested, Code: 3037, Description: XUID is not associated with any customer

I did a google search for this error code and message, and only found one relevant post where the user is still stuck in the situation I am.

Update May 29, 2013

There was a Netflix update about a week or so ago, and since that update, my credentials have saved to my xbox live account for the first time, and have remained so for my last 5 logins so far.  I think it's safe to say it's a fix.  Has anyone else with this issue also found some resolution in the last update?

Ummm... this is my first play through of Undertale. I just defeated Asgore, and now have to face the horror that is Photoshop Flowey. I have looked up his attacks on the UT wiki, I have studied almost every Steam community forum on the topic... And I still keep dying.

I'm not sure how to avoid his attacks. They seem to just about fill up the screen. I've looked at almost all the websites that I thought might help, and all I found was people boasting that they got it in the second to third try, or that I just needed to "git gud". The only answers I found were vague and inconclusive, such as "Just dodge and wait it out," completely ignoring the fact I have no clue how to dodge because his attacks pretty much fill up the screen, and they're so fast... Can any Undertale veterans please give me some pointers?

Btw, I'm trying to spare him, in case that affects how to defeat him.

Climb the beanstalk to find a world full of coins with a warp zone at the end allowing you to warp to World 6, 7 or 8.

texts:
I've been pretty unlucky with Hearthstone boosters: 30 packs in and still no class-defining legendary, rare or epic to really build a collection around. I have, however, generated several hundred dust which I'm itching to spend on something.

So the question is: given that you don't know what's going to be in the next booster, is there an "optimal" approach to spending your dust?

A lot of sites seem to suggest that you should burn it on the most useful common cards, the ones that you need to get decks working, on the basis that they're cheap. But that seems bad advice to me because the chances of you getting what you need from boosters is quite high. After 30, I've got at least one of all the most desirable common cards, and two of many.

At the other end of the spectrum is the idea that you should save them up for the most powerful legendaries. On the one hand, the chances of you getting a real killer legendary from opening packs is very slim. But on the other, you need to accumulate a vast amount of dust and there is the awful chance of you aquiring a second and totally useless copy of the card.

At the moment I'm edging on using it to buy rares. They don't break the bank, and if you just buy one, acquiring a second through pack opening is actually pretty handy.

But this is just finger in the wind opinion. Is there a more rigorous way of looking at things?

texts: For Christmas 2018 my son got a 3DSXL & Pokémon Ultra Sun (Digital estore) game. He’s played it a few times, but it seems like every time he reopens it he starts from the very beginning. Can someone guide me & let me know how to continue the previously saved game on Pokémon Ultra Sun?


texts: How is overwatch triggered, and how is it affected by cover?

texts:
If a unit is in overwatch and an enemy moves a single step from a tile outside of the unit's vision to a tile inside the unit's vision, will overwatch trigger? How about the reverse - if an enemy moves a step from a tile inside the unit's vision to a tile outside the unit's vision?

If an enemy is on tile A and takes a step to tile B, and unit gets an overwatch reaction shot against it, does the game use the cover status in tile A or tile B? i.e. if an enemy is in full cover and I think it is likely to move next turn (Stun lancer, e.g.), would it be better to overwatch instead of take a shot, or will the shot consider the enemy to be in full cover anyway?

texts: How do I know which damage type monsters inflict?

texts:
For some sources of damage it is pretty easy to guess what damage type it is. For example, if a monster hits you with a huge ass axe, it's probably physical damage. The burning floors at the butcher is most likely fire damage. The chilling construct monsters in act 2 seem like they inflict cold damage, etc.

However, the damage type is not so obvious for all attacks. Belial's ultimate skill (the green colour seems to indicate poison, but the sudden explosions might indicate fire, and Asheara yells "Watch out for the fireballs" in the quest prior to Belial, where similar green explosions occur). Azmodan's black pools on the floor. Zoltan Kulle's whirlwinds.

How do I find out what damage type a certain opponent is able to inflict, so that I know what type of resistance is most important?


texts: Do I need to bring the laboratory back to Kerbin?

texts:
The related question talks about bringing experiments back from space. This can be done without penalties if a scientist "removes" the data from given device and stores it in a command module, then returns the module back home (leaving the "experiments" in space).

Can I do the same thing with a laboratory? I understand the laboratory can repeat given experiment within a biome multiple times (for rapidly diminishing returns) and the command module can only store one result per biome, so I won't get the repeated experiments, but will there be any other penalties if I leave the lab on Minmus and return the data through command modules?

texts: Does Atelier Totori Plus have the Music DLC already in it

texts:
The original Atelier Totori had a Model Viewer, Past Game Music and Cory, Iksel and Ceci Party Characters as DLC. From what I've read, the Party Character's DLC is standard in Atelier Totori Plus and it seems like the Model Viewer is standard too as in the Extra Menu there is a Model Viewer (that's as far as I went in when I started the game because I was checking for my Angel and Imp Costumes for Totori).

I'm wondering if the Music DLC that you normally had to get separate in the original Atelier Totori is found in Atelier Totori Plus.

NOTE: The DLC adds music from previous Atelier games which can be set as alternative battle and boss BGM.


texts: How do you view your town's history when sitting on the wall in the event plaza?

texts:
I read a realted question about viewing your town's history in New Leaf, but it didn't fully answer the question.
Apparenlty in new leaf if you sit on the wall by the tree in the event plaza you get to view your town's history. In a previous question it was said 500 hours + 500 days, but someone else said they could get it with 50 hours + 50 days. I've been playing since the game was released and I have about 180+ hours.
So my questions are:
 1. how long do you have to have played to view the history?
 2. are the days measured in the days you have played or the the number of days that have passed since you started the game


texts:
I have a very annoying issue that is making my Minecraft experience, as well as any other games using LWJGL as an engine.
This is what my Minecraft looks like:

As you can see there are black bars there, and it also seems like the mouse doesn't line up with the buttons - as if the buttons are there in the black area but visually off.
This also occurs when the window is resized:

Same issues. Black bars also seem to remain here.
This occurs with other things that use LWJGL as well, such as CCEmuRedux (a ComputerCraft emulator that uses that engine).

Going fullscreen in MC does fix it but the issue returns when exiting from fullscreen. I have tried this already.
This is my system report: Pastebin link
For those that think that is too long, here is the summary: Windows 10 Insider Preview, latest version. NVidia GTX 660 SC EVGA, with the latest NVidia Windows 10 Driver. Java 8 latest version, x64.
Thank you for helping me.

texts: Black screen when running most games fullscreen

texts:
So I'm coming with my head in my hands asking for somebody to help me out with my laptop.

My basic system information is as follows: http://pastebin.com/AVeGH8j6

This is only a problem I have experienced in the past few months. Basically, 90% of my games will not run in fullscreen. When I load them up, I merely get a black screen (with game audio as normal). Games that let me move to windowed using Alt+Enter then work fine in windowed mode (once I've played around a bit, as my laptop usually locks up upon game launch; I have to press Alt+Enter and then use the sleep button and load it back up to get it to respond). So if I can get them to run in windowed mode or borderless fullscreen windowed, they work fine.

Initially, I assumed it was a driver problem, so, I uninstalled my current NVidia drivers, used an online guide to delete all traces of them as suggested, then updated to the latest ones to no avail. I have even tried backdating my drivers to the ones that came preloaded. Nothing has worked. At the moment I am running the latest drivers for my GT555M (310.70) and I am still having the same problem.

I also heard it might be something to do with Avast! (my antivirus), so I uninstalled it and tried again - nothing.

Hours of trawling Google has yielded little - it's a major headache for a committed PC gamer!
N.B. some of my techy friends have suggested formatting my hard drive or reinstalling my OS, but my recovery disk was made pre-installation of SP1, which I heard makes it effectively useless, and on top of that I'd rather not lose a load of my single user licenses (e.g. MS Office). What could I do to fix this problem?

texts: Implementing Minecraft Banner Text Parsing

texts:
This is a complex question, so I apologize in advance. Believe it or not, this is for an assignment in a college-level class.

I am trying to implement a lexer in Minecraft that interprets different types of number-looking banners. The functionality I am looking to achieve is very similar to SethBling's Scrabble Spell Checker. Essentially, when a number of various banners are placed, some series of command blocks are triggered.

So let's say I want to interpret these banners and set a scoreboard objective to be 149:

Here's my understanding of how this functionality works:

There is a dummy scoreboard object configured to act a counter
A command block would spawn in an armour stand to the far right of the banners and it could step the armour stand to the left 1 block after every iteration using relative coordinates
At each "step", the armour stand would have to issue a testfor command and then, depending on the result, would have to add that respective value to the scoreboard

Step 3. is the heart of my question. In SethBling's example he uses this command:

/execute @e[type=ArmorStand,name=Lexer] ~ ~ ~ /testforblock ~ ~ ~ wall_banner -1 {Patterns:[{Pattern:"ls",Color:0},{Pattern:"bs",Color:0},{Pattern:"bo",Color:15}]}

Where it's clear the banner type is being identified. But I'm not sure how it is possible to do anything with this result.

Am I on the right track with this logic? How can I use the result from the testfor command issued by the armour stand?

Once I figure out the value of the banner, how can I add this result to the relative total (ie. 9 + 40 + 100), since I can't perform mathematical operations inside the command block?

I know this question involves a lot of complex command block logic. Thanks so much for your help!


texts: How is a Borderlands 2 multiplayer game hosted?

texts:
I am considering buying borderlands 2 but would first like to know how and who hosts the game that I want to play with my friend on the other side of the world.

I have quite bad computer and cannot host a game well and neither does my friend but we both have okay internet. In Borderlands 1 we both lagged whenever either of us hosted because one of our computers had to actually host the game (at least that's what I assume) and I am wondering if Borderlands 2 has a dynamic server hosting system or the same system as borderlands 1, where a player has to host.

Thanks in advance.


texts: My Minecraft folder got wiped clean in Mac, and Minecraft is messed up

texts:
And no, I did not move, delete, or even touch the Minecraft folder manually recently.

The problem is I only want them to give them 1 arrow at a time, so when they shoot that arrow, they get 1 back within 30 ticks of time , but I don't have enough experience with command blocks to do so, anyone who can help me?

I have recently brought a copy of this game from ebay with goro as a download. It has not come yet and I was looking forward to it.
I asked the owner a question before which asked if Goro was 100% included. He come back to me saying yes and that I may have to create a us PSN account to download it though.

Upon looking at this I am concerned it might be a US copy and so will lock me into the USA Region when playing online (I am in the UK).

It states on description that this is a EU English version.
Would that be the American version or is it our version? I can not find a meaning for it.

Thank you.

texts: Creating a training/observation post schedule for Dwarves

texts:
I'm browsing through the military wiki for Dwarf Fortress and I have not figured out a way to do this.

I would like to make a squad of archers, maybe just two or three at the start. I want one to be stationed near my tunnel where I have war dogs to detect intruders. I will have an archer wall dug out so he can shoot through fortifications. That way if anyone is detected they can open fire.

But I want the other dwarves in the squad that are NOT on guard duty to practice shooting or brawling.

Is this possible to do within one squad? Or should I design a training squad and a guard post squad?

texts: Why is the Jarl of Markarth always in his room?

texts:
In Skyrim SSE (on PC), when I'm running any quest for the Jarl of Markarth ("Kill the Forsworn Leader","Dungeon Delving","Thane of the Reach") and prompted to return to him to complete the quest, he's in his room with the door locked. I don't want to pick the lock and get fined and perhaps get a bad reputation. I've waited in sight of the throne one hour at a time for several in-game days. No court at the throne. All the other courts follow the same merchant hours of 8 AM to 8 PM. Is this an in-game bug? It really breaks the flow, having to wait hour-after-hour or do some other quest and return, hoping that the Markarth court will actually be in session.

Is the resolution some console hack? I can't think of any way I could have accidentally messed up the Markarth court mechanics.

Even having a resolution, I'm just curious why it is that this only happens in Markarth. Is it the "special" meat served in Markarth?


texts: How can I take a certain amount of items from a chest using a hopper in Minecraft?

texts:
I am making a Nether wart farm with Redstone++'s capability to dispense seeds, saplings, nether warts and actually plant them. The farm works and automatically harvests and plants the nether wart. All I need to do now is restock the dispensers when they are empty with 32 nether warts from the chest containing all the harvest. This is where I am stuck as I do not know how to achieve this - all I know is that it has something to do with comparators - a component which I do not fully understand.

I am using Minecraft 1.12.2 in Java Edition and Forge 14.23.5.2831 using the Roguelike Adventures and Dungeons modpack.

Below are images of my contraption (note that I am also using the Uppers mod for the upside down hoppers):


texts: Enter Wii mode on Wii U without sensor bar

texts:
I have a cat who finds the Wii sensor bar's cord irresistibly attractive, so the sensor bar stays in a drawer most of the time. However, when trying to start Wii mode on the Wii U, you're required to point the wiimote at the screen. Now I actually play wii 95% without the sensor bar anymore since most of what I play allows the classic controller, as does the UI. But it seems to not let me IN to wii mode without it.

I've tried launching the Wii mode from startup (holy B until the Wii U logo appears and it should go into Wii mode) as well as from the home screen icon, both bring you to the "point the remote at the screen" dialog. There's no way to interact with the dialog but to comply or cancel. Using a classic controller doesn't seem to change whether the screen prompts you.

Is there some way to get into Wii mode on a Wii U without the sensor bar at all? I have wiimotes, classic controllers (pro and normal) and nunchucks, and a Wii U pro controller if any of that helps.

texts: How can I fool Steam to think my exFat drive is NTFS?

texts:
My steam library is on an external drive that I had to format as exFAT to be able to write on OS X. Note that I play on Windows 7 64-bit, I just use this drive on both.

Steam, along with way other programs and softwares, were happy with this unless suddenly during uninstall process of one of the games via Steam, it wiped all the Steam library. I could not even recover it, have no idea what have happened.

So I went to install some of my games and upon installing of big ones like XCOM 2, Steam said that the drive can't be FAT32 and has to be NTFS. As explained, the drive is exFAT and NOT FAT32. I contacted Valve about this and they said they can't do anything about it.

So is there a way to make the Steam think that the drive is NTFS? Like with linking files or something.

Thanks.

EDIT: Obviously format to NTFS is not an option because I don't have 2TiB empty space somewhere to move data from this drive and to my knowledge there is no conversion from exFAT to NTFS without formatting.

I know that you can take advantage of the Parental Control system and set it to Level 1 to restrict browser use, movies and games, but I'm more concerned about my photos and videos on the HDD.

So I thought that I could put them on a USB (the ones I wanted to be accessible to only me) and encrypt it with a passcode, and have it prompt me before opening and exploring.

Is this possible at all?

Also, as a note: I would be open to installing 3rd-party software to do this or similar.

In the custom game gemTD, one of the abilities available to heroes is called candy. This ability allows you to 'add' another checkpoint to the map, which is put in front of the other five checkpoints.
The game is a regular maze-type tower defense game, where creeps will move from the start location to each checkpoint one through five, and then to the exit. Some creeps are flying, and won't be blocked by towers.
You also receive an indirect scoring bonus for killing the creeps earlynote. It maxes out when they are killed before hitting the second checkpoint.
Adding the sixth checkpoint allows the towers more time, or can make the scoring bonus easier.
A lot of the time I read very firm opinions about the location of the candy. There's one spot where it must be placed. Those opinions are not exactly unanimous about where that spot is though. Is there any truth to this?
note: Killing creeps early prevents the 'progress penalty' for creeps passing points 3 and higher. Each kill increases the 'progress bar'. Maximizing this bar increases the number of creeps per wave by 1. You get a point for every kill. Thus increasing the number of creeps increases the scoring potential.


texts: I have been playing Candy Crush Saga for awhile I just finished level 35. My friend had been playing the quests and it gave me the quest option at first, but my friend said that she could do a quest every 24 hours so I completed the first quest and it said I could do another one in 24 hours so I went back in 24 hours but didn't get that choice again.  How do I get that option back again?


texts: What game mechanics do you have to take into consideration when playing multiplayer (team) games of Civilisation V?

texts:
I have started playing Civ 5 with a group of friends. We play LAN in teams of two.

There are some obvious things to avoid, like both players on a team focusing on religion or both aiming for a diplomatic victory, but what else do you need to keep in mind?


texts:
The cloaking system is very useful for avoiding damage, but I can't seem to find a shortcut key to activate it. This makes using the cloak more difficult than it should be.

Is there a shortcut key for the cloak, and if so, what is it?


texts: Will my Minecraft Server progress be wiped if I use a new hard drive?

texts:
I currently have an older Mac computer with a small hard drive. I recently purchased a new drive, and I am moving everything over by way of a dual-bay drive docking station.

However, I'm concerned about my progress on servers. Would they be wiped by this, or will they be safe?


texts: Does the ADDITIONAL GUNS option in Jagged Alliance 2: Unfinished Business effect the difficulty of the game?

texts: In Jagged-Alliance-2: Unfinished Business there is an option to add additional guns to the game. Does this increase the difficulty of the game (Say by giving your opponents better weapons while leaving your starting weapons the same), decrease it (Give you better starting weapons, give you more options latter on) or not really effect the difficulty of the game?


texts: Is there a way to force a sync between Facebook and your mobile device?

texts:
I play on both my desktop, through Facebook, and on the Android Candy Crush Saga app.

The app is linked to my Facebook account.

Occasionally the two accounts stop synchronizing for a while, up to a few days.  During this time, levels unlocked on one platform will not be unlocked on the other.

Once the two platforms manage to synch back up, any unlocked levels become available on both platforms.

However, now I'm at the point where I need 3 tickets to unlock the next level on my phone, but am 1 level shy of that point on Facebook.

I've gotten 3 friends to provide tickets, but only two show up on my phone.

All three show up as having provided tickets to level 156 on Facebook, but I can't proceed because it isn't giving me credit for having completed level 155.

Is there a way to force the two platforms to synch up?  Rebooting my phone or pressing the synch button within the phone app do not fix this.


texts: Minecraft won't run with more than 6gb of ram allocated

texts:
So long story short, before I had a vanilla Minecraft server with Minecraft running at the same time.
I allocated all of my ram (16gb) to Minecraft just so it had enough room to breathe. Of course it doesn't use that much, it uses max 3gb but somehow it actually increased fps even though Minecraft wasn't using all of the allocated ram.
Also, I should mention even with Minecraft and server running I had chrome open with quite a bit of tabs (like 20) and even Spotify playing songs and it was running fine at 144fps with optifine and max settings. (should mention I have a gtx 1080 and i7 10700k OC to 4.9ghz)
But yesterday when I tried to launch Minecraft after launching the server I got a blue screen of death. After that screen whenever I tried to launch Minecraft it would say not enough memory until I lowered the allocated ram to about 6gb.
Also now even when I would launch the server (which uses only like 1.5gb of ram) and launch chrome, chrome tabs would begin to crash saying they are out of memory.
And the worst thing now is that I cant run Minecraft and the server at the same time cuz one or the other crash saying there is not enough memory even when I close all other applications and RAM usage is literally only 30%. Also with 6gb of ram Minecraft barely runs at 60fps.


texts: Where could I start from to find the path to the green gun?

texts:
From what I understand, there is a green gun to remove green blocks, just as there is a blue gun to remove blue blocks. However, I have not found the room with the green gun. Could someone indicate which room I should start from to find the path to the green gun?

Here is my current map:

texts: How do I improve the rating of my crops?

texts:
I have a mission where a deli wants potatoes that are D rank or better. Mine are E rank, and I have cultivated them a few times, but nothing really changes.

Is this the best way to improve their rating? Or is there something else I am not doing?


texts: What exactly happens if I choose to erase a game's progress?

texts: In Settings > Other, I have the option to "Delete [Subgame] Progress" for each subgame. I am considering doing this for Warrior's Way because I've hit max numbers and have all the hat tickets for having said high numbers. I'd like to know exactly what "progress" means before going through with it though, because while I presume that completed tickets will stay completed, I don't want to lose progress for incomplete tickets (such as, I have about 180 wins vs. opposing player-monarchs out of the necessary 300, and I don't want that to restart).


texts: Is it possible to transfer game data from one account to another on the same PS4?

texts:
I would like to transfer my progress in Bloodborne from my account to my Dad's account on the same PS4, and continue playing the game on my Dad's account. That's because I have registered myself as a child account though I am 16, and my Dad is the Family Manager. By doing so, I can play the game online through my Dad's account.

Is it possible to continue my current progress in another account on the same console?


texts: I have some set items which give me 20% Health stolen properties. How exactly does that lifesteal works, does it heal me for 20% of my weapons DPS per hit, 20% of the damage that was actually done per hit, or something else?


texts: Is IP gained based at all on performance?

texts:
Is there any correlation between how well I do in game and how much IP I gain?  I already know that winning a game nets you more IP than losing a game.

But for example, if my team carries me to a win despite me going 0-10-0, will I get less IP than if I carry my team by going 15-0-0?


texts: Are there any consequences to starting Ashes of Ariandel after already beginning New Game+?

texts:
Finally beat Dark Souls 3 -- and loved it -- so much so that I started New Game Plus to retain my gear and mutilate all the invaders that gave me so much grief the first play-through.

However, I wouldn't say I'm bored with my clearly over-leveled character -- I see no reason to not continue my dominance into NG+2 (no such thing as OP in PvE, in my opinion :) -- but I would like to take on some new areas and enemies; so I want to grab Ashes of Ariandel DLC.

If I install the new Ashes of Ariandel DLC while currently playing NG+, am I going to lose access to areas/items/NPCs/etc. that would have been available only during the first play-through? Or is everything going to remain as if I never started NG+ (except of course the difficulty that comes with NG+)?

I'm just afraid I'm going to miss out on some items or side-quests because I started the DLC from NG+ instead of playing the DLC from NG (which was perhaps the developers' intent?)


texts: Can I port my old save game to Wasteland 2 Director's Cut?

texts:
I started playing Wasteland 2 a while back and only recently noticed the Director's Cut. On Steam, it's listed as a separate game, so I installed it. When I launched it, I noticed that it didn't show my existing save game from original edition.

Is there any way to port my save game or do I have to start over?

texts: How frequent do you have to use powered rails uphill?

texts:
How frequent do I have to place powered rails to keep climbing at full speed?

Some people say that you only have to use the same amount from powered and non powered, but you can do like 3 powered and 3 unpowered. This is not true, I tried that out. The best way seems to be switching between powered and non-powered (one powered, one non-powered, one powered, ...), which brings a big waste of redstone torches with it. Any other ideas? I didn't test it enough to prove it.

This is NOT the same question as this one here. I ask specifically for full speed and not "minimum of powered rails/maintain reasonable speed".


texts: How do people kill the titans in the subway tunnels so fast?

texts:
In Resistance 2 co-op during the subway tunnels part of the Bracknell map, there are a number of titans that teleport in at various points. Usually these guys take a lot of punishment before they go down, especially when you get the extra-strength ones that are handed out when you have a full-up party. But sometimes I get in a party where someone seems to know how to one-shot them. The things hardly get two steps out of the teleporter and they're toast.

I've personally tried the LAARK and the pulse cannon on the beasts, and as far as I can tell, either of these would need at least four shots to take down a full-strength titan. I've seen other people trying to use these weapons, and getting the same effect I do. Whatever is going on, it seems to be someone down in front, close to the titan, that whacks it. I don't think it's combined LAARK shots b/c I can usually see most of the soldier's wraith shields up.

Could this be a map glitch? Maybe there's a sweet spot from which you can get a magic shot off? It seems to be this one part of this one map where this happens. Everywhere else there are titans, they come out and stomp around for quite a while before dying.


texts: Can I buy Xbox Live games via PC and transfer them on a flash drive to a Xbox 360 internal HDD?

texts: Due to the region restriction I cannot access Xbox Live on my Xbox, even if I purchased a Gold membership. However it seems that I can purchase games from Xbox Live Marketplace on a PC. I assume this means I can then download them on the PC, and I would like to know if I can transfer them through a flash drive to the 250GB internal HDD of my Xbox 360 console, and then run them from the HDD.


texts: Crash/freeze during car chase in Lair of the Shadow Broker (Mass Effect 2)

texts:
Early in the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC, at the end of the car chase on Ilium, there is a cutscene where you ram the car of the Asari you are chasing.

During this cutscene, the game freezes, screen goes black and stays that way (though the music continues briefly).

I have tried all the solutions given online for ME2 crashes:

Steam's "verify game files" feature (to fix corrupt files)
Change Audio device settings to 16bit 44khz
Run game Borderless Windowed (instead of fullscreen)
Run game in Windows 7 compatibility mode
Add the command line argument -nomoviestartup
Re-running the installer exe for the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC

Any other ideas?

(I wrote this issue into pc gaming wiki too : https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Mass_Effect_2#Crash_during_vehicle_chase_on_Illium so no point suggesting I try there...)

(i5-2500, R9 280x, 8GB RAM, 5.1ch sound, tried both 1920x1080 and 800x600, graphical settings maxed out and 'minned out').


texts: How to select an entity with a named item in their offhand in Minecraft 1.14?

texts:
I have a repeating command block set to "always active" running this command.

/effect give @a[nbt={Inventory:[{Slot:-106b,id:"minecraft:stick", tag:{display:{Name:"Speed Stick Deodorant"}}}]}] minecraft:speed 1 7 true

In my offhand, I'm holding a stick given to me via this command:

/give @p stick{display:{Name:"\"Speed Stick Deodorant\""},Enchantments:[{id:unbreaking,lvl:10}]} 1

The output on the repeating command block says "No entity was found". What's wrong here?

I also tried giving myself the stick without enchantments to see if that was a problem. Didn't help.


texts: What's the advantage of using the lock-on shot in Deathsmiles?

texts:
I've been playing Deathsmiles for some time now, and I still can't seem to figure out the usefulness of the lock-on shot.  I find it slow and difficult to use effectively and never use it, yet I see pro replays using it all the time.

When is it best to use the lock-on shot?  Are any bosses more susceptible to it than others?  Do any enemies drop more items as a result of being killed by it?

Basically, why should I ever use the lock-on shot?


texts: How do I prevent freezes or FPS drops when in combat?

texts:
I have tried different settings in the game but nothing solves the problem.

The game runs perfectly at high settings when I'm not in combat but when I fight with more than 2 enemies, the game no longer runs smooth. I'm 90% certain it's not from the spell effects, fog, blur, etc. I tried reinstalling it but nothing changed.

How can I make it work smooth again?


texts: Book 2: How do I get Abby to talk to me in Chapter 4: Dreaming?

texts:
In Book 2 of Dreamfall Chapters, I'm stuck in Chapter 4: Dreaming.

I have two quests going on:

Bring some information to Mira, but a bot is fixing Mira's front door and the game tells me to come back later.
Find information about Abby to get her to tell me where I can find Hannah.

The problem is, nothing in the room Abby is in tells me anything and randomly wandering around town hasn't helped either.

There's are four manhole covers I can remove.  One is welded shut, one is stuck partway open (too small for my character), one is watched by a policeman who threatens to arrest me, and the last is where Abby is.

How do I find the information to get Abby to help me?

texts: In Braid 3-1, there's a locked door on the opposite side of a large pit. At the bottom of the pit there's a goomba carrying the key to the door. I've managed to time it so that when I jump down onto the goomba, I pick up the key and bounce back up - but I'm not bouncing up high enough to escape the pit. What's the trick?


texts:
Let's say you win the first 3 rounds as CT and at the start of the 4th round you have a Famas and you know the enemy team will buy.

Is it bad to not upgrade your Famas (To M4) even if you have the money? How much of a disadvantage is it considered to face AK's with a Famas?


texts: Can you add queens in production to a control group?

texts:
I am currently working on a strategy that involves having 4-6 queens in my final army comp (plus a queen for each hatchery). My problem is that whenever I queue up a queen to be produced, I have to go back when she is finished and add her to the control group (making sure she is not the queen I use for injects that I hotkey specifically).

I was wondering if there was a way to add a queen in production to a control group similar to the way you can add any eggs before they hatch to a control group?


texts:
I noticed that when it's raining slightly, there may be puddles forming as you lap around a track. I didn't notice a splash when I was driving through it, however. It also does feel like the road getting wet affects handling, but that might be a placebo.

I know that in some games like DiRT Rally, the track can change due to cars going around the laps (i.e trails left behind by a car can affect surface level of the road). Does the same apply to Forza Horizon 3? Do the tracks in the game changes due to weather conditions or wear out throughout a race?


texts: is there an Elysian Whip at any point in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon?

texts:
I'm going through my first play-through of Shadow Dragon, and I was holding off on promoting Caeda because there may be an Elysian whip to promote her into a Falcoknight.

In the sequel, New Mystery of the Emblem, there's one in chapter 16, but I didn't find one in Shadow Dragon. I decided to promote her anyway but I'm curious if there was one in the first place or if it's only available in the sequel?


texts: What is the fastest way to travel in Minecraft using non-standard means?

texts:
"Travel" meaning getting roughly 200 meters between two locations in the regular world.
Includes time to prepare expendables and/or eat to get full (but not worrying about damage).  I don't care how much time it takes to build infrastructure in any of this.

"Non Standard" meaning, there has to be a faster way than a boat or a minecart or even going to the nether.

"Minecraft" meaning vanilla single player mode.

"Fastest" meaning, m/s numbers please.  Speculative answers such as usually given in these questions (i.e. like this one) are not what I'm looking for.

Related sub questions might be: How far can you throw an ender pearl, and how long is it in the air (in seconds)?  Are there ways to throw an ender pearl 200 meters?  What speed can you get out of a well built EATS road (in m/s)?  How fast (in m/s) is boat teleporting?  minecart teleporting?  Is there a way to use a TNT cannon that doesn't kill me half the time?


texts: Does having Javik along on the first playthrough of Mass Effect 3 give more exposition?

texts: Since Javik is a Prothean who has already dealt with the reapers and understandings things a bit better, if you complete Mass Effect 3 with him as a squad member do you gain more insight about the history of the Reapers?


texts: How do I get all parts of my HUD to stick around in DX:HR

texts:
So, I'm pretty sure when I started playing DX:HR, the display for my "hotbar," or 1-0 keys, was constantly around as long as I wasn't at Sarif Industries. Yet now, later in the game, I'm noticing that it fades out after a few seconds wherever I am, and only re-displays when I change items.

I have a terrible memory. I can't remember which item is tied to which number key. How do I get this thing to stick around and stop disappearing? Couldn't find anything that seemed to fit in the options menu, so I'm assuming it's a keyboard shortcut I accidentally hit...


texts:
I have my XBox 360 connected to my PC Monitor via HDMI. The problem is that my Acer S240HL monitor does not have any audio output of any kind.

I have already pulled the casing off of the original composite connector, thus I can connect both HDMI and composite at the same time (with a bit of tape to block the video circuit)
I also have an adapter which converts the two male RCA audio outputs to a single female 3.5mm headphone socket.

This setup enables me to connect headphones/pc speakers to the xbox.

My problem is that the volume of the sound is too low to be usable.

I am pretty sure that some (all?) Turtle Beach models can use the RCA audio output with an adapter like this and presumably they work. So is it that the adapter is different from the standard composite connector that I am using, or that the headphones provide their own amplification.

If it is the latter, what can I add to my setup to amplify the output without having to spend a fortune?

Is there some easier way to get the sound to my pc speakers?

If amplification is the only way, is this the sort of thing that would work? (I envision connecting something like this between the RCA outputs and my headphones RCA -> amp -> RCA adapter -> Headphones)


texts: Why can I no longer break into doors in Deus Ex?

texts:
This time, the game does work, but I can't break into doors. I could only do it twice, once with a 10mm gun and the other with the crowbar. Now when I have the option to break into a door, the health doesn't decrease not even when I attack it with my crowbar.

The doors weren't 100% buggy, though. I had the option to lockpick the doors, but I can't do it due to the lack of lockpicks in my inventory.

I am aware that there are doors which you can't break into (those with INF HP), but the others with limited door resistance should be allowed to be broken into. I made sure that the door I was breaking into wasn't an INF one, so I have no idea why I can't break into doors now.

TL;DR, I can lockpick doors, but not break into them.

Side note: I looked at this question here: What damages doors?, however, this did not help, as I tried to break into them with some of the methods. I'm in the "Hell's Kitchen" level, so explosives aren't an option, at least from what I could see.


texts: How do .NAV bot map navigation files in the Steam Workshop work?

texts:
I'm asking because I got these confusing information:

This map's description states that the Steam Workshop does not allow including .NAV files and recommends I download a copy from another website, instead. While, this other Steam Workshop map's description states that it includes a "unique NAV file".

In the latter map, I checked if there's a .NAV file included with the map in its folder in \csgo\maps\workshop\, but there isn't any. However, when I first played that map, the game didn't auto-compute and generate a .NAV bot navigation file before allowing playing with bots, but the bots seem to navigate the map just fine. There still isn't a .NAV file in there after I've played the map. It is possible that this map has included custom-made bot navigation info somewhere.

When I copied the latter map (its folder in \csgo\maps\workshop\), to share it with another person who also has CS:GO (but did not download the same map from the Steam Workshop), the game auto-generates a .NAV file when hosting a listen server of that map. This leads me to believe that the custom-made .NAV files of maps downloaded from the Steam Workshop are possibly stored in a location other than \maps\workshop\.

Does the Steam Workshop allow downloading of custom-made bot navigation files (.NAV) along with the map itself?  If yes, where are they located?

texts: In at least the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (and UMvC3) community, commentators of a match may exclaim this consistently when a certain event occurs. Why?


texts:
I'm having some trouble with planning out what weapons to upgrade in The Last Story for Wii. What typically happens is I spend a bunch of money upgrading an item to +5, use it for one dungeon, then find a better one...but it is only better if I spend a mountain upgrading it to +5. I'm currently at about chapter 15, and worried I'm wasting lots and lots of gold. I just finished equipping everyone with Gladiators, Para Axes and +5 daggers, then found I could buy Enchanters and Knight's Swords.

Is there a guide on when to buy new weapons, and when to build up money? I'm always worried that if I don't buy new weapons now I won't get a chance to later. Should I just keep using my current gear until I find weapons I don't need to upgrade so much?

texts:
I've just started playing Xenoblade Chronicles X, and I noticed how different the camera behaves compared to other games.

Whenever I press the right analog stick, the camera takes a (short) while before moving. When I let go of it, the camera takes another (short) while before stopping. In other words, the camera accelerates.

Since I'm used to cameras that don't accelerate, i.e. react directly to my input, I have a hard time controlling it. I've already increased the horizontal movement speed of the camera (which I felt is way too slow by default), but I can't find an option to turn off the acceleration.

What option do I need to change if I want the camera to behave the way I expect?

texts: How Can I Wear Red's Wings Without Being Debuffed?

texts: In Terraria there is an item that is unobtainable in the game unless you use cheats like inventory edits called Red's Wings.  These wings can only be worn by ReDigIt and if you wear them as a regular player you will get all of the debuffs as well as -1000 defense and 1% moving speed.  I  was wondering how I could wear those wings without getting any of the debuffs (being the cheater that I am) that usually come with it.


texts: In Auctioneer, is there a way to set a default markup price when there is no competition?

texts:
I use auctioneer all the time, and when posting items I have it set to undercut my competitors by 1%.

However, if there is no competition for a particular item, it simply sets the default to the market price.

Is there an option in Auctioneer to set it so if there is no competition, raise the default markup price by 100% or by 50g (for example)?

Basically, if there is no competition on an item, I might as well put it on the AH for a high price, rather than market price.

texts: I really want to get to the next agency mission and open new black-market items quicker but usually causing chaos (Blowing up gas containers and 'sploding cars) doesn't really make it go up fast. And just shooting government objects with normal weapons takes a really long time to 'splode them and I'm bad at getting to mounted guns and  bazookas because I suck at getting past guards. But even when I do get to them and blow stuff up, my chaos bar just goes up only a little more up than it usually does. Are there any ways to make it go up faster that are fairly easy to do?


texts: Can I sacrifice the old and weak, or is a graveyard necessary in Black and White?

texts:
In Black and White, I've always heard that graveyards are necessary so villagers don't waste too much time mourning the dead. Advice I've newly read suggests, however, that building a graveyard is a waste of time and the old, the dead, even children can be sacrificed with great benefit.

I've always thought that it hurt my society to sacrifice villagers, and settled for giving food instead. If I consistently sacrifice the weak and dead, however, can I save resources and do without a graveyard as well? Or, will my villagers still notice and mourn?


texts: Punkbuster keeps kicking me for weird reasons. 'Invalid Memory Image'; how to resolve?

texts:
So on top of getting kicked from Battlefield 3 games because of a 'lost connection to EA online' error I just recently got this gem;

Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster.
Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Hashbrown777' (for 0 minutes) ...
RESTRICTION: Invalid Memory Image [130511]

I've had a bit of a look around and people seem to think it can be caused by modding (HUD modifications etc) but I have none.

I have no expansions and am just running the bare game. I repair installed and updated PB but they found nothing (said no corruptions and already up to date respectively).

I keep getting kicked for this and other reasons, but this one seems to be the most odd (and thus, hopefully, able to pinpoint a cause). Has anyone got any ideas?


texts: Where will Gargoyles spawn on Halloween Maps?

texts: With the annual seasonal event kicking off, where will the Gargoyles spawn for each Halloween map?


texts:
After feverishly mining my minimal 10 blocks of obsidian I made me a portal to the Nether.  I thought to myself, 'Sweet, something new.  This should be fun.'  I wanted to jump in immediately but to be safe, I emptied my inventory of everything other than a sword, armor and a pick ax.

I got there and noticed it brought me to a cave.  I knew I'd need some torches so I turned around and re-entered the portal and... I have no clue where I am but it's not the portal I entered in?!?!

What happened and how can I get home?  I don't have a map because, as I mentioned, I left all my goods at my home base before going to the Nether.  Now I'm stranded.  How does this happen and how can I easily find my home base?  Should it be close by?  I tried to enter the portal in the Nether from various directions but that didn't help.  I keep popping up in the overworld somewhere other than near my home but I can tell it is at the same location each time I go back to the overworld.

I'm lost... and I'm starting to feel cold.  Can somebody help?


texts: Can Juggernauts kill each other with friendly fire in CoD: Modern Warfare 2 Special Ops mode?

texts:
In Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Special Ops, could Juggernauts kill each other with friendly fire? In particular, in Estate Takedown?

I'm playing on PS3 (if this matters).


texts: How can I know if a Pokemon has reached its final stage of evolution in Pokemon Go?

texts: If there is no "Evolve" button on a Pokemon, is it at its highest form? How do you know when it can't evolve anymore?
