texts: How long does a crate drop take in Grand Theft Auto V?

texts:
While playing Grand Theft Auto V online players are occasionally notified of a crate drop. A green circle appears on the map and a flare appears in the game world.

I have responded to a few of these crate drops notifications but am confused by how long it takes between the notification and the crate actually appearing.

Recently I spent over 15 minutes at the flare site shooting any player who came close (sorry guys, nothing personal) but the crate still didn't appear. I have come across two dropped crates, so I know they do drop at some point.

Is there a set time limit, a random time limit, or is the crate drop triggered by something else (like having a certain number of players occupying the drop zone)?


texts: What is the achievement in Making History 2?

texts:
In Making History 2: The War of the World, there is only one Steam achievement, and no information is listed about it on Steam.

What is the one "secret" achievement, and how do I unlock it?


texts: I am referring to the summoning of a 30/30 between 9:48 and 9:55 in this video. I sought to identify its 9/9 precursors by going through the crafting section of my app, but I couldn’t find them.


texts:
Just a simple question here. I just watched a SL1 on NG+ kill Fume Knight hitting for 500dmg with a rapier and gold pine resin. I also watched another player with 40str/40dex and a twin blade with gold pine resin hit Fume Knight for roughly 600 per.

My SL is 130, I'm pure melee with 30str/30dex, I use a +10 rapier or estoc with gold pine resin and I hit for 130ish...

What am I possibly doing wrong? How is it even possible to achieve such high dmg on SL1?

I'd like to start bumping up the game level.. but my dmg is just terrible for reasons unknown to me.

texts: In season 17 does LoN buff work against season journey set rewards?

texts:
If you get and use the class set from completing the season journey are you not wasting the seasonal LoN buff?

I'm just a casual that jumps in and out once in a while and most people seem to be recommending builds that work around 4 or 6 piece set bonuses, am I missing something or does that basically make the season buff pointless?


texts: What Overdrive Mode is the best for Overdrive -> SP grinding?

texts: I am wondering which Overdrive Mode is best for grinding using Overside -> SP on a weapon. In addition the method best to employ when using said Overdrive Mode.


texts: When will a player begin to have a chance to receive equipment higher than Blue quality?

texts:
At present, I have have approximately 11,000 prestige, but the best weapons and rings I have found have been blue (Rare) quality, or the lesser green (Uncommon). Purple (Epic) amulets are an almost guaranteed drop from the last enemy in Group missions, but aside from them, I have not seen any epic level rings, weapons or additionals - nor have I seen yellow (Legendary) drops for any slot.

At what point may a player begin to have a chance at receiving the higher rarities? I figure that there's a prestige lock, as there is with the Silver Pommels, which unlock around 18,600 prestige.


texts: Taxes are calculated as a percentage of what in SimCity Buildit?

texts:
I know that the tax rate varies based on how happy the Sims are. Let's say my Sims are 99% happy. The tax rate is 20%. But 20% of what?

City hall says I get a tax rate of 20%, which equals §12075 every 24 hours.

If the tax rate were based on population, my population is 104184, so times 20% = §20837. That can't be it, so it must be something else.


texts: Is it possible to reroll champion shards into a champion I already own?

texts:
I've rerolled two sets of three champion shards and both times I've managed to get a champion I don't yet own, despite only having ~20 unowned champions.

So is it possible to reroll 3 shards into a champion you own? What happens when you own all the champions?


texts: What references to Sombra exist in the game now?

texts:
Sombra is being teased quite heavily as the next hero for Overwatch, and I know that there are some easter eggs hidden in some maps and voice lines.

For example, Reaper will sometimes say "Where is Sombra when you need her?" and on a few maps, there are pictures and news clippings of her.

What are the currently known references to her existence within the Overwatch universe?


texts: How is skill damage calculated based on weapon damage?

texts:
I understand that spell damage in based on weapon damage, but how? A weapon has both a damage attribute (e.g., 2-3 damage), and a damage-per-second attribute (e.g., 3.0 damage per second).

Let's say we have two scenarios:

You equip an apprentice's wand: 3.0 Damage Per Second, 2–3 Damage, 1.20 Attacks per Second
You equip a variation of this wand: 3.0 Damage Per Second, 1-1.5 Damage, 2.40 Attacks per Second.

Now if you cast a Magic Missile (110% weapon damage) in scenario one, would it deal 2.2-3.3 damage? And 1.1-1.65 damage in scenario two?

So this could be balanced by the fact that weapons with higher attacks per second allow you to cast spells faster. But in this case, it would cost more arcane power. Is arcane power adjusted with attacks per second? Is this mechanism explained somewhere ?


texts:
So I started the mission Daedra's Bestfriend. I am on my way to get the rueful axe when I saw a goat on the road, I killed it with Fus-Ro-Dah when suddenly a vampire NPC run towards me, I thought she will attack me but when I sheathe my bow she did the same to her dagger and she wont stop following and doing what I am doing... When I talk to her it just say "This person is busy".
I haven't started the dawnguard DLC mission yet.
I am curious what did I do to trigger this. Or is it just a random encounter?
Edit: I can now talk to her and command her like a companion after reloading a save file.

texts: What's the fastest way to kill an ogre by myself?

texts:
I've set up my diabolical traps.  They've killed 99% of the enemies coming through the gate, but I've been distracted on the other side of the map and don't notice the ogre that smashed through my hallway of death until he's almost to the rift.

What's the fastest (non-trap) way to kill the thing?  I like the crossbow with headshots giving back mana, and stun locking him with alternate fire, but when there are two I quickly lose.

texts: What are the conditions for cactus to grow in Terraria?

texts:
In my current world, I built a horizontal tunnel from my home to the nearest demon altar, at a depth of 8 feet above sea level.  As it happens, this tunnel passed through a relatively large area of sand and, while making a run down this tunnel last night, I discovered that cacti had grown in it, contrary to my assumption that they would only grow on the surface deserts.

I've checked both wikis and found no information on cactus farming.  Are the requirements for growing cacti (altitude, vertical space, and perhaps quantity of sand in the area) currently known?  For now, I've dug six blocks down from the main tunnel and paved at the original level, which looks like it should leave a cactus-height space above the new level of the sand surface, but I haven't seen any new cactus growth yet.


texts: I am looking to just trying out some wings. What is the easiest pair to obtain? Can any be achieved pre-hardmode?


texts: How is damage calculated for Way of the Hundred Fists?

texts:
The Monk's Way of the Hundred Fists ability comes with a base tag of 140% weapon damage. Simple enough, but the skill in itself is composed of seven punches.

Again, simple enough, but then, the damage counts of each hit is a bit different (easily visible if you have damage amounts shown). It acts like HIGH - LOW x 5 - HIGH as far as damage is concerned.

I'm not too well versed with Diablo 3's damage calcs (am just trying to enjoy the game with an easy N/NM run right now), so just being curious.

How is the damage calculated for WotHF? Provided I have a base damage of 1500, I'd assume that WotHF is ~2100 damage.

Is that in total (i.e. 700 + 140 x 5 + 700), or each hit tier (i.e. 2100 + 700 x 5 + 2100), or some other gleeful calculation (i.e. 1050 + random x 5 + 1050 or something)?

texts: How is it possible to get a score of 2 billion in Cut the Rope?

texts:
I just played through the first box (cardboard) in Cut the Rope, aiming for the fastest times and therefore highest score. It seems like the absolute highest score you can get for a level is around 6,000 (I got just over 5,900 for essentially an 'instant solve').

So when I'd finished I amassed 139,800 points (avg ~5,600 per level). Imagine my surprise when I logged onto the game center only to find the top score for Cardboard Box is 2,298,946,210!!!

As far as I can tell, it only takes the highest score for each level, so playing through levels again doesn't keep adding to your score. Are all these users cheating in some way? Or is there another way to improve scores?

texts: What exactly does "/scoreboard @a  = @a " do?

texts:
I'm developing a multiplayer minigame, but haven't been able to get any of my friends to help me on testing yet. I need to set EVERY players internalCash score to their cash score, but cannot use /execute, since it needs to run for non-op players.

It would be INCREDIBLY elegant if I could simply use

/scoreboard players operation @a internalCash = @a cash

but it doesn't seem to work properly with @e, which scares me. Could someone please tell me if I need to develop a clever workaround for this, or if this will do.

edit Oops! Kinda need the "players operation " part. :P

texts: What is the definition of "entity" in the Minecraft Debug Screen?

texts:
Title says it all.  This other question indicates that the second line with an E on the debug screen is describing the entities.  What is an entity?

My guess, (based upon observations) is that it is any MOB (friendly or hostile) and any items.  The "number rendered" is really the number in the field of view (i.e. the solid angle determed by the "view port" into the minecraft world, while the total number is the entire number currently loaded in memory.  If you're standing still, that'd be all the mobs/items in a roughly 200x200 (in X and Z) square centered on the character?  (I'm assuming single player vanilla minecraft here.)

Are there are tips to taking them down fast?

I clearly recall hearing this song while playing but I can't remember from what game. I would love to find the game in order to see if it contains other great musics such as this one, can anyone help me ? Thanks

texts: How to construct a //g command with WorldEdit in minecraft?

texts:
The WorldEdit Generation manual

I'm looking for an example of how to construct an arbitrary 3D shape from formula to script. SK gives an example formula for a stone torus, which is as follows.

//g stone (0.75-sqrt(x^2+y^2))^2+z^2 < 0.25^2

The mathematical formula for the volume of a torus is:

What I need to see is an example of something simple like a triangle or a trapezoid, something I can get my head around. You can create any shape possible if it follows a mathematical formula. SK even gives the command syntax.

If someone could show me a few shape formulas broken into the proper format that would be nice.

Actually, I dual posted: How to translate from one math formula format to another? - Mathematics - Stack Exchange


texts: How is might calculated in Kingdoms of Camelot?

texts:
I have been playing kingdoms of Camelot for a few days now an I still cannot determine how might is calculated.

I'm aware might goes down when you send troops out of your base, but I had a significant amount of might left over when I only had transport troops left in my base during a march - which made me wonder:

Is might calculated on how many and/or which idle troops you currently own? If so, which troops give higher might ?

It's likely a new update, but has anyone looked at the code recently and can shed some light on what this variable does?

I'm told she'll show up again later.  Is it possible to rekindle things with her, and are there any special circumstances for doing so?  If so, will it affect any current relationships?

(I assume, like all characters introduced in Mass Effect 2, that if this is possible at all you have to have been involved with her in the first place, but since she didn't actually count for the Paramour achievement I can't be sure if this will be handled differently.)

texts: What does it mean to champion a faction in Pandaria content?

texts:
In the reputation pane you can select one of the Pandaria factions to champion and it states: "You will earn bonus reputation for the selected faction for various activities."

At first I assumed this meant dungeon rep, á la previous expansions, but when I selected the Tillers and did a heroic dungeon I didn't get any Tillers rep.

What does championing a reputation do and does it have the same effect for every faction?

texts: When are digital copies of Switch games made available to play?

texts:
When an upcoming game has a release date set, it is my understanding that you will be able to play that game (the digital copy) at midnight the night before; as soon as it actually becomes date of the release.

How does this work with time zones? Do games release at midnight for a specific time zone, such as UTC or Eastern Standard Time? Or does it go by each user's location, so that a player on the East Coast could actually get to play game while a player on the West Coast still has to wait another 3 hours until it is available?

I am especially interested in exactly when I will get to play Mario Maker 2, which has a release date of June 28, 2019. But I am hoping this question can be generically applied to all Switch games.

texts: What are the strongest combinations of Pantheon Spirits for AFK?

texts:
In Cookie Clicker, there is a Pantheon that lets you slot Spirits to get bonuses. I would like to know which Spirits are best for an AFK/low attention build and where they should be slotted.
Right now, I have Mokalsium (milk power up) in Diamond, Skruuia (wrinkler power up) in Ruby, and Holobore (base CPS up) in Jade. I assume these three are the best for AFK builds, but I do not know if their slotting is as optimal as it could be, which is what led me to asking this question.
As for my run, I am currently in what I assume to be the end game. I have 377/439 for achievements and my current CPS (without wrinklers) is 221.526 undecillion.

When items are inside of a container, such as a chest, the item's label is red, which is a nice, quick visual indicator that the item is being stolen, should you take it.

texts: How can I maximise Mystic Arte usage by the AI?

texts:
The AI in Tales of Berseria seems to use Mystic Artes (MA) with some regularity but not nearly as often as they should be able to. They often seem to hold on  to 4+ Blast Gauge with a full Soul Gauge (SG) without actually launching a finisher.

I've played around with their Strategy options and setting the final two options to "Mystic Arte" and "When attacking" seems to work, for the most part, but I was hoping that there was a way to get them to spam MAs often, especially since I've seen some players mention how they actually disabled MAs for the AI because they were spamming them too quickly. So with that in mind:

What is the most efficient Strategy set-up to force Mystic Artes?
Do different characters require different set-ups?
Does the AI actually need to hit the 4-arte or 8-arte combo requirement?
Is the issue that they're reluctant to drop below 3 SG while Break Souls are required to reach higher combo chains?
Will disabling the Level 1 MA cause them to use their higher level MAs? Or do they use Level 2s at the same rate regardless and am I just missing out on their Level 1s?


texts:
I'm a little bit confused about desktop dungeons. Are there any permanent upgrades, or do I have to somehow get through all the game types using the base characters? Especially the snake pit seems completely impossible with weakened effect.

Maybe I'm totally missing something trivial but it took me huge amount of tries beat the normal mode with a fighter and since other classes can't see the positions of same or lower level enemies I have no idea how to beat the boss (while searching for suitable enemies I uncover the entire map and have no health recovery for the high level enemies).


texts:
My problem is that I want to play my playstation on my pc monitor but am having difficulties because of the playstation 2 needing a Scart connection (or Red, white, yellow - i'm unsure of exactly what this is known as).

Does anyone know if its possible to get something to convert the signal from Scart to something my monitor will accept.The monitor has the following inputs:
- HDMI
- DVI
- VGA

Ideally I would like to use the HDMI port because that can carry the audio signal as well.

Any advice would be appreciated.

When practicing some commanding vs bots I ran into the problem of my Relay Towers losing their connection when adding a Power Station further up in the link.

This did not seem to affect my power, so is my link still there or are all Power Stations linked with each other without the need of a Relay Tower? In other words do all Power Stations share one common power grid or do they each have there own?


texts: Why can Normal types still damage Haunter?

texts:
In the Pokémon effectiveness chart, it says normal types have no effectiveness against ghost types. Since Haunter is a primarily Ghost type (aside from being Poison type), it should receive no damage from Normal types right?

I'm asking this because I thought I was sneaky with my 450 CP Haunter battling a 1400 CP Snorlax... It did not turn out so well...

Follow-up question, if the answer is that "because Haunter is also a Poison type", are there any Pokémon in Go that are immune to any other pokémon's attacks?

texts: Will the Lost-and-Found inventory reset in Bastion during NG+?

texts: So I'm currently pissed off with the Mencer Observatory. It's too difficult to aim the Calamity Cannon especially on a Vita, at least for me. I wanted to upgrade all weapons to max, but I'm being frustrated with the Mencer Observatory that I might as well just finish the game. I've read that the last upgrade for Calamity Cannon will give it homing ability, so if I proceed to NG+ will the Lost-and-Found inventory reset, allowing me to buy Something Wrong to upgrade my weapon to max? I've also read that level weapons will carry over in NG+, that's why I'm asking this question.

texts: Shouldn't religious rebels disband after I've converted?

texts:
An army of religious protestant rebels have sieged two of my provinces. In the meantime, I have converted to protestantism through the religion panel ... but the rebels apparently didn't get the memo, and they are still there.

I can accept their demands, to convert to protestantism, but that has other effects, which I am not interested in (lower religious tolerance).

Is this a bug, or do I really have to beat them or surrender to them?

Their army is fairly large, but they are on an island without ships, so they don't pose a threat right now, but I'd rather they didn't siege my provinces when we agree on our chosen flavour of christianity.

texts: What happens if a Pokémon hits multiple evolution criteria at once?

texts:
There's several Pokémon that have branching evolution paths - Slowpoke for example can be evolved into Slowbro by level-up, or into Slowking by trading with King's Rock held.

In most cases, these branches can't conflict, but there's at least one where 3 conditions can be potentially met at once.

Take these three evolution conditions for Eevee:

Espeon - level up once with a high Happiness value (during the day, or at night for Umbreon)
Leafeon - level up once nearby the Mossy Rock
Sylveon - level up once with 2+ Affection and a fairy-type attack.

It's entirely possible for all 3 criteria to be met at the same time (a single Eevee with Charm - Fairy type as of Gen VI -, high affection and friendship, levelled up at the Mossy Rock). Which evolution takes place? Will the game pick randomly, or is logic included to pre-determine the path? Or is it based on which criteria is hit first?


texts:
I did the 7 achievements today where you have to catch 100 enormous fish of each type in order to get the Quest where one can gain Nat Pagle as a follower.

I read a guide here, but it does not detail if I can catch Lunkers in my Garrison. However, the Garrison does satisfy the requirement for catching them:

  The type of Lunker caught depends on the zone being fished: The Lunker name is the same name as the prize fish caught from each zone's
  inland waters (as visited during the quest, A True Draenor Angler,
  list above).
  Lunkers can only be caught from inland open water, not pools.
  Lunkers are caught with or without Bait. Bait makes no difference to Lunker catches, but does continue to influence the main catch.
  Lunkers are caught alongside another fish. They are caught alongside approximately 1.2% of the catch (currently 26 out of an open water
  sample of 2100). There is no obvious variation by skill or zone.
  Lunkers are bound when caught, so cannot be traded. They are "unique (5)", which means that you can only hold 5 lunkers (of each type) in
  your inventory at once. With 5, you will not be able to catch
  additional lunkers of the same type.

So according to this list, one should be able to catch them there, some confirmation would be good though, which is why I ask here if anyone has actually caught a Lunker while fishing in the Garrison.

EDIT

The rule that you cannot catch them from pools, seems not to be right. I was able to catch a Lunker right here:

This is at the entrance of Frostfire Ridge, which would qualify as a pool normally. So it seems not to only drop in open waters. I still did not catch a Lunker in my Garrison though.

texts: Dwarf Fortress: Cannot generate ideal Terrifying biomes

texts:
I want to embark on a Terrifying biome that have the following traits:

some woods
moderate foliage
no aquifer
deep + shallow metals
half mountains (to settle in) and half open space (to explore)
small river so I can go fishing
temperate weather
Terrifying biome should not be too dominating on the map since I want other to encounter civs too.
lots of monsters and animals

But I can't get the map to generate this criteria. I set savage tiles to be 8x8, min savage 100. But this ends up with the map gen saying it can't produce any map based on my config. I've tried tweaking this, but I've pretty much defaulted back to Large Island since I can't generate a map.

Does anyone have a world map that I can import that will have all these things? Or what are the optimal settings for generating this biome?

texts: Best methods of pissing off other civilizations?

texts:
What are the best methods of pissing off other civilisations?

I know going to war against them is probably one of the most effective ways of damaging your relationship with other civs, but I was also looking for none lethal methods too.

Denouncing them, asking them to stop settling cities near you and asking them to stop spying on you all seems to upset them, but by how much? And which is the most effective (or damaging, depending on your point of view)?

Is there anything else I can do, short of declaring war, to upset and provoke other civilizations?

I am hoping to upset all the civilizations so much, that they all join forces and declare war against me. I am guessing this might be difficult to achieve, especially as some civilizations will respond to your action in different ways, but anything that gets me close to this goal would be great.


texts: Does Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice delete your save file if you die too often?

texts:
There has been a lot of media coverage of a controversial feature in Hellblade where your save game is deleted if you die too much.

Examples:

Eurogamer:  Hellblade deletes your save file if you die too many times
PC Gamer: Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice deletes your save file for dying too often

However, some news site I've never heard of claims that

  Hellblade save files won’t really be deleted if you die too often. [..] Adding a false message of perma-death makes sense if you consider Senua’s mental state. She is afraid of things that aren’t real, that fear is what the developers want you to feel.

So which is it?

Below is a screenshot of what I am doing, showing that the extra hotbar is going over the other two instead of under them. That hotbar is number 5.

I got a "freezed" chunk in the spawn.
Pressure plates aren't working (/clone and /fill are working). When I spawn mobs, they are frozen.

texts: Is PS4 Manual Eject Screw supposed to tighten

texts:
My PS4 works fine 9/10 of the time, but at some point, usually ingame or at night, it will eject the disc in it (if any) and then the ejection engine will start spinning like crazy and the console will triple beep repeatedly.

It seems to go away for a while (a day, usually) if I unplug the PS4 and try to turn it on several times, but sometimes it doesn't work and I have to resort to other methods. On the web I found "remove rubber foot", tried, didn't change a thing.

Eventually, on Sony's site, I found "tighten manual eject screw" I did that and it seemed to work, for a while, after which the PS4 had the issue again. I did it again and it only worked for a shorter time before "screwing up" again.

One thing I noticed is that the screw does not actually tighten. Instead, it spins infinitely. I have never overtightened the screw, damaged or modified my PS4 or even done anything weird with my PS4.
Online, other users too seem to have had this problem.

Sony refuses to repair the PS4 out of warranty and, for the same price as a new slim, wants to give me an old refurbished PS4 with only 6 months warranty. I am totally not going to do this nor buy another PS4: I only play on PS4 for the few exclusives as I have switched to PC. What I'd like to know is if it is normal for the "screw" to be like this (which means my problem cannot be solved) or if maybe I could have the screw replaced by a third party and maybe my issue could be solved

texts: How can I disrupt a rift without getting interrupted?

texts:
Disrupting a rift seems like a useful thing, and the game strongly points me towards doing that regularly. But apart from the first fight in the prologue where you can disrupt a rift, I can't seem to make good use of the ability.

The main problem is that I get interrupted by enemy attacks almost every time I try to disrupt a rift. This aborts the disruption process and I've achieved nothing at all by trying.

Is there any way to prevent getting interrupted by enemy attacks when disrupting a rift?


texts: Can you raise your character's main ("Hard Cap" - Level 81) level higher in Dawnguard?

texts:
I didn't flesh out my level and perk strategy as well as I would have liked (I got it nailed down at level 65). I also assumed the Hard Cap was level 100. My character will still come out, I'd say, approx. 85% the way I would've  liked. I'm at level 72 now (gotta get a life, huh :D), and I've mapped out my remaining perks.

Anyhoo, if there are new skills, that will allow me to level up further and pick new perks, which would be awesome. Oh, fyi, I don't like spoilers and I don't want to learn the Dawnguard story (I'm like that with most games), thus my ignorance of Dawnguard.

This achievement requires you to leave the first level properly, by making use of the skyway at the end, rather than just falling midway there. Unfortunately, that's precisely what I did.

Was there some update related to this? My combat skills are all 1.

No, account wasn't hacked. When logged in it showed my IP from the last login and over 300 hundred days.

Also when logged in I appeared in the now ex-p2p zone above Falador to North-West in some new town.

So what the hell, why its level 4 suddenly if it was inactive for a year with combat skills all 1. Was there some kind of an update?

I would ask why my ping sucks 90% of the time but that question is just too broad as I don't have much domain knowledge about how the internet works.

In lieu of proper Steam Cloud support, I'm trying to set up Frozen Synapse to store its save files in Dropbox. What files or folders do I need to sync between my two (Mac) computers to achieve this?

(For bonus points: What about on Windows? Are the save files compatible between platforms?)

texts:
I'm having an issue with one of Far Harbor's two main quests, so here's a spoiler-free description of what's happening:

Playing on PC, have done all quests for Far Harbor, have all four settlements going and over 65 happiness. During the quest "The Way Life Should Be", I convinced DiMA to turn himself in. My plan was to talk down the crowd from attacking Acadia, then help the Children meet their precious Atom. However, DiMA's trial doesn't go as planned:

When Allen speaks, I have both the "Shut up" AND "Acadia is innocent" speech checks. Neither makes a difference, though.
The Mariner speaks up on my behalf.
Cassie Dalton speaks up on my
behalf.
Mitch speaks up on my behalf.
Teddy Wright speaks up, but
instead of mentioning the Rite of Passage I passed, he instead says
that people went to Echo Lumber on my word and haven't been heard
from since.
Small Bertha does not speak, even though I completed
"Turn Back the Fog".
Andre does not speak, even though I cured him.

At that point, after Teddy speaks, everyone elects to attack Acadia - even if I pass the difficult "Acadia is innocent" check. Is this a bug or did I miss something?

P.S. - I did NOT notify Allen about the evidence or have Teddy examine it, but I DID tell Avery about it and promise to keep it secret before confronting DiMA. Could that be what's killing my good vibes?

P.P.S. - I went back to a save from before approaching Avery, but still had the same results. So apparently I did (or didn't do) something earlier on that determined this outcome.

Note: I do have a lot of mods loaded, but nothing related to Far Harbor. Just to be safe, though, I de-activated all of my mods and tried again. Same result.

I am currently trying to create a fenced area to keep dinosaurs in.
I've noticed that brontosaurus and t-rex' seem to be capable of going over my one stone wall heigh fence.

texts: What are some WASD alternate control schemes to avoid repetitive strain injury?

texts:
There are a lot of games out there that assume that players will use WASD as their keys to move the player (ie. most flash games).  I don't use WASD as my player control when using keyboard and mouse.

I tend to use a AERG (Left-Up-Down-Right) control scheme, due to mainly the size of my hand and WASD feeling too cramped. Plus playing for small periods of time (> 30 min) on WASD makes my hand hurt. The problem that I have is that a lot of the Crouch/Dodge/Target/Run keys are bound to the Left-Ctrl/Alt/Shift which I have a problem using effectively with this layout. I tend to rebind them around my left index finger (on the G). I find that it is sometimes difficult to play in this manner as I don't have a spare finger for extra key presses and sometimes multiple keys are required to be pressed at the same time.

I don't really want to use a controller, and I need something that doesn't put strain on my hands.  Are there any improvements/layouts that I could use to reduce repetitive stress and still allow optimal control?


texts: Were there any new levels released this Monday, March 10?

Or, is there something I need to do to unlock them? I have 5 million coins and nothing to spend them on :(

texts: How do I get past the first turret in Deus Ex Human Revolution?

texts:
I'm trying to get past it without it going hostile so I can get the Foxiest of the Hounds achievement, but I can't get to the door across the hallway (not the one with the concussion mine next to it) without it spotting me.

I've taken the large crate and tossed it down the hallway to block the turrets view of me, but even with a tiny little gap between the crates the turret spots me.

Is the only way to use my first and only Praxis point for a strength augmentation, and then physically move the turret out of the way?


texts: Why would I want to use a particular version of DirectX? How should I choose?

texts:
I've noticed a number of games lately that give me a choice of what version of DirectX to run the game with, usually 9, 10, or 11 (or some subset thereof). I have a graphics card that supports DirectX 11 (AMD 6750M, but it shouldn't really matter for this question), but I've noticed that some games still recommend using the older version of DirectX when I use whatever 'detect hardware' optimal graphics settings the game suggests. Further, in some games, I've actually noticed a significant improvement in FPS after switching to the older version.

In general, is there a rule of thumb for determining which version of DirectX I should be using? Is there any reason this option is even given, rather than just automatically using the newest supported by whatever video card is available?

texts: Can Moon Lord's tongue go through blocks?

texts:
Recently, I've finally beaten Lunatic Cultist and decided to fight Moon Lord. The first 2 times I died, because his lazer kept hitting me, since I can't avoid it. Now I found a way to defeat him. I put myself in a box while only the Phantasmal Spheres can damage me. But now I find myself pretty confused. On the site it said that only the Phantasmal Sphere attack can go through blocks, but it never said anything about his tongue. Now, I need to know this, so I actually can defeat him in a small time, because then I would need to concentrate on his tongue so he doesn't heal 5000 health every 40 seconds.

Now I really need to find out this, because it will be quite a long time until I'll get my Beetle Armor.

Did anyone used the box technique like I'm planning to use and knows the answer? (I'm going to use the Godly Solar Eruption and put the Nurse down, also that hole won't be there).


texts: In Dungeon Crawl, should I move enchanted items to a cleared level so that monsters can't get them?

texts:
I'm playing Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. I'm on level 10 of the main dungeon.

When I kill an orc, it may drop, say, shiny plate mail and a glowing battleaxe. If I leave those items on the floor, an enemy—say, an orc warrior—could later pick them up and use them.

Should I trouble myself to move these enchanted items to a cleared level? If not, why not?


texts: What are the requirements to unlock certain G3* quests?

texts:
There are certain 3* Elder Hall (G3*) quests that are only available after you unlock them somehow. Ten of them are available through deciphering scrolls, but there are some others that are only unlocked if you fulfill some other unspecified requirement.

For example, I know the Advanced: Fur Fixation (furious rajang) quest's requirements are to kill a certain number of "Fanged Beasts", but I don't know how many.

What are the requirements for the remaining G3* quests?

What level should I be if I try to make a pact with this Guadia, seeing how that is a much greater challenge?

texts: What determines size of the zone in Skyrim?

texts:
This is not gameplay related but more about what's going on under the hood of the game.

What determines the size of the zone in Skyrim? For example, Solitude is one big zone with a lot of people in it, but every shop, however tiny it is, is a separate zone with a loading screen before you enter.

The most strange example in my opinion is Jorrvaskr. Why was the basement not made a part of it initially? What's the point in the loading screen there? There are dungeons ten times the size of it.

Possible Duplicate:

I was wondering whether you could use Alchemy to do this:

Make a potion to Fortify Making potions
Drink said potion and make a superior Fortify making potions.
Repeat until Fortify making potions is ridiculously high.
make a Fortify enchanting items potion(which will be buffed from your potion making potions).
make Fortify making potions enchantments on your items
congratulations, you just broke the game!

These methods, though i havent actually tried them out, can make you have a very highly increased enchantment bonus, which can of course give you all sorts of insane enchantments.

Was this maybe an oversight in Skyrim?

texts: (Java Minecraft 1.14) Loot table reward won't stack with /given item, even though they have the same nbt?

texts:
I have an item in a datapack which has a supplemental function to give it straight to the player (for testing), and an entry in a loot table (which is how survival players get it). I recently noticed that these two items will not stack, under any circumstances, even though they should have the exact same nbt  data. The /give command looks like this:

give @s minecraft:quartz{dmd_dark_quartz:1b,CustomModelData:256,display:{Name:"{\"text\":\"Dark Quartz\",\"color\":\"dark_purple\",\"italic\":\"false\"}"}} 1

While the loot table looks like this:

{
  "type": "minecraft:item",
  "conditions": [
    {
      "condition": "random_chance",
      "chance": 0.75
    }
  ],
  "functions": [
    {
      "function": "set_name",
      "name": {"text":"Dark Quartz","color":"dark_purple","italic":"false"}
    },
    {
      "function": "set_nbt",
      "tag": "{dmd_dark_quartz:1b,CustomModelData:256}"
    },
    {
       "function": "minecraft:explosion_decay"
    }
  ],
  "name": "minecraft:quartz"
}

When I hold the two items in my hand and use /data get entity @s SelectedItem, the only difference is that there are no quotes surrounding the false value for italics in the loot table version. Here's a picture for further clarification of what I mean:

I underlined the false values that were different. Does anyone know if this is a bug or what causes this? I think it's probably a bug because all other values ("dark_purple", for example) have the quotes, but that singular one doesn't. Is it because it is a true/false value and doesn't need quotes? I would prefer if they stacked because then testing would be easier and I wouldn't have to test both versions for everything, but not including quotes in the /give command seems a bit sacrilegious.

Upon further testing, not including the quotes in the /give command gives an item that has the exact same nbt (so the /data get looks exactly the same) as the loot table version but still doesn't stack with either one.

Any answers on why this is happening?


texts: How to Combat Protoss Walling in a Zerg's Base

texts:
Recently I had a game where I went for a risky Hatch-First build.  Except before the hatch was close to being completed, the Protoss walled off my main's base with pylons exactly like the picture below.

Then he continued to create photon cannons behind this wall. How do I combat this? I tried getting roaches up and moving spine crawlers up, however my spine crawlers miserably failed as he broke through one of the pylons and moved them to the spaces not covered by my creep in my main. How do I prevent this? How can I stop this after it has begun? Killing the probe I am sure would be the priority. This, however, can be a difficult deal when he protects the probe by the cannons behind it.

As a side note, I understand that many tournament maps have a neutral supply depot to prevent just this. Here is the link to the article.

texts: What bonuses does a "deity" level AI get and how do I deal with them?

texts:
The "Deity" difficulty level of Civilization V says that "the AI receives heavy advantages". In Civ IV this meant that the AI started with more units, 2 settlers, etc.

So my question is two-fold:

a) what bonuses does a "deity" level AI get in terms of units and resource production (hammers+cultures+food+gold+science etc)

b) any general suggestions as how to deal with the results of a? I know that you should generally try to expand as fast as possible and war with a neighbor sooner rather than later (before they can get a tech lead) to take advantage of their developed cities and remove their production.

texts: Does COD BO 4 Battle Edition include all gameplay content for Battle Royale, unlocked?

texts:
Call of Duty Black Ops 4 has just added a new lower-priced "Battle Edition" for sale, which includes only the multiplayer game modes. This appeals to me because I wanted to try the Battle Royale mode, but didn't have much interest in the rest of the games and don't want to spend any more money.

If I purchase the Battle Edition, will that mean I will be able to permanently play Battle Royale fully-unlocked without gameplay limitations? (I don't mind being cut-off from cosmetics.) To be a bit more specific:

There is "Black Ops Pass" for sale which unlocks additional multiplayer maps. Are these maps relevant to Battle Royale, or only the traditional multiplayer mode?
There are unlockable characters for Battle Royale. Are these cosmetic, or do they effect gameplay?
There is some kind of "points" currency that you can earn through gameplay. Are these only for cosmetics in Battle Royale?
Is there any other kind of gameplay content that needs to be unlocked, either through play or pay?

As for The World, no idea. Order in the list seems to imply it is some time after you take care of the Skeleton King but I have noticed the order in the list is not always chronological (Found this out with the books in Act 3 where one of them is among the last you collect).

If these should be separate questions let me know but I fear a question for every check box on these achievements.. I just can not figure these talking points out!


texts: Minecraft villagers are constantly getting affected by invisibility

texts: In my village, my villagers are constantly becoming invisible, even wandering traders are invisible, only their llamas are there. That said, they always reappear after a few minutes. I thought that witches might be the reason so i did a test. I kept and surrounded a village with walls and lit up the place, yet some of the villagers are still becoming invisible. This issue is really annoying, because I can never find the villager I want to trade with.


texts: Once combat begins, fleets mostly leave direct player control (except for the "retreat" option). What is the distance (in in-game units, i.e. the units that weapon range are expressed in) between two fleets when they enter this "combat" stage?


texts:
In Bad Time Simulator section "sans_bonestab3", I used to be able to dodge consecutive slams against the same wall flawlessly. But after playing it over and over again in the past week, I can hardly ever dodge consecutive slams against the same wall.

Has this ever happened to anybody else, or is this something strange and unusual?


texts: How can I make a town with my friends, without strangers?

texts:
In "The Trail" it seems the social aspect is the community building of our wild west town.

But you get bunched up with some random strangers that may not be as active as one would wish (or not at all).

Several of my friends began playing, and I'd very much like to be in the same town as them.

Is there a way to make a town with your friends / pick your neighbors?


texts:
I'm using scoreboard and what I have been trying to do is to give players a specific amount of points from killing a specific custom mob. The mob is customised with different health and a different name.

How can I record killings of this specific mob, and update the scoreboard with the appropriate number of points?


texts: Where do you get the first generation legendaries in X and Y?

texts:
I am aware that there are three 6th generation pokemon, but apparently you are able to get the legendary bird trio (Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres) and Mewtwo (for mega evolutions).

How do you get these pokemon in Pokemon X/Y?


texts: Red-Dead-Redemption: Is there anyway to "win" the side "trap" missions?

texts:
In RDR as I roam around the country I often come across mini-side mission like recapturing a stolen horse or fending off a stagecoach robbery. However, there is one "mission" type that I'm not sure how to handle.

Usually it is some sad-sack injured person or some woman calling out to me for help. That person or their cohorts then ambush me and either try to kill me or steal my horse. These trap missions are starting to become familiar enough that I can spot them a mile off.

The question is, as asked by Joshua in War Games, is the only way to win not to play? That is, should I just steer clear of these trap-missions or is there some advantage to springing them and inevitably winding up in a shootout? Or perhaps there is another option for dealing with these that I haven't considered?


texts: In Star Fox Adventures is there any known way to escape Krazoa Palace?

texts:
Now I know that Star Fox Adventures is a relatively older game. I didn't know this would happen and I saved the game after obtaining the 5th Krazoa Spirit. This railroads the game into making you go to Krazoa Palace where you then get pushed down the path to the final boss. Now the game itself won't let you leave in that as far as I can tell the warp out of the palace is blocked behind a grating and the Arwing doesn't let you fly it out of the palace.

I'm guessing that someone somewhere has found a way out of the palace at that portion of the game. Even if it is a glitch method that involves breaking the game to wall clip or something I'm just wanting to know how to get out. I have 12 hours in this play through and now it's gone because the game wasn't reasonable enough to leave a way out of the palace. I'm wondering if anyone has managed to break their way out (even if doing so prevents you from reentering and thereby blocks off the final boss).


texts: What happens if I read the Elder Scrolls over and over again?

texts:
I already know the interesting thing that happens when you read the Scroll on the highest of Skyrim's mountains, and I already know what happens when you read a Elder Scroll anywhere else.

I also read from in-game sources that reading the Scrolls over and over again will make you go blind forever. Does this actually happen in the game or are we just Aedra who can read the Scroll over and over again with only temporary blindness?


texts:
I'm building an arcade cabinet, and finding one part of the control panel to be very frustrating: the joystick rod is too long and so it can move in and out of the panel.

The sticks that I bought only had 2 positions for the clamp, one of them far too short for me to use.  I wouldn't mind the sticks going in and out of the panel much, but when its sunk into the panel the piece to activate the switches falls with it and doesn't hit the buttons, so you need to keep the stick held up while playing.

I was going to try to throw some more washers on it, but the clamp is stuck on pretty hard so if anyone has a better suggestion please let me know!


texts:
I've so far found two mementos, a Crystal Barrette and a Ragged Hood. Are these items used for any gameplay purpose, or like the statues, are they just used for narrative flavor?

Should I worry about going out of my way to explore and find them? Not that I don't explore obsessively anyway, but still, my collector's impulse compels me to make sure I'm not missing anything I may need later.


texts: What's the point of the bombable caves with golden statues?

texts:
This has to be the third or fourth such room in the game. This particular room is deep within an area that can only be reached with the rooster. I imagine that if I can do something here, I probably can only do so here and now.

What's the point of these rooms? How do I activate them? What do I get from it?


texts: What exactly is stored on the Xbox console, the hard drive, and Xbox Live?

texts:
Please be patient with me. I am a Mom, not a gamer. We have an Xbox 360 S with 250 GB that we are having to exchange for a new one. I have several questions.

What is the difference between the 360 S and the 360 E (i believe stands for Elite)?
Would this be an "upgrade"?
What is stored on the console, the hard drive, and Xbox Live?
What needs to be done to save everything so that it can be transferred or re-downloaded to the new Xbox?
Is there anything that won't transfer/ be lost?

more info...

The disc drive is broken on our 360S so the store is exchanging the one we have for a new unit. I don't know if the 360 E is a newer/better model. I was just wondering if it was I was going to ask for the upgrade. But from what you're saying, I should stick with the 360S.. yes?


texts: How can I deploy my machine gun without any enemies around?

texts: How can I tell my machine gunners to move to a point and deploy their machine guns (preferably with some directional control)? Usually they just walk to a point, wait till they see an enemy, start deploying in that direction, then find out that by the time they finish deploying the enemy is on the other side and they need to redeploy.


texts: How to use an Xbox one controller with an android device?

texts: While connecting an Xbox one controller to a Windows PC via USB works fine after downloading the respective driver, I was wondering how to use it on an android device via USB OTG, or to an OUYA.


texts: How to create mouse specific buttons in windows

texts:
As an owner of a Logitech G600, there are a lot of buttons on the side of the mouse (16 to be exact).

In the software that comes with the mouse you can only set keybinds using what you can find on the keyboard.

On some other mice that I've seen, they have binds like "MOUSE_4"

My question is: Can I create commands like "MOUSE_X" that I can assign to all of my mouse buttons - which aren't naturally available to me.

EDIT:

Because you can bind the keys to run a script, is there a script i could use to issue a command of my choice

e.g. when button G16 is pressed, return "MOUSE_8"


texts: Is Minecraft Windows 10 beta a separate purchase from the non-beta?

texts: I'm thinking of buying Minecraft Windows 10 edition beta but when it leaves beta and its name changes to Minecraft Windows 10 edition, will I have to buy the game separately or will I get it if I had the beta already?


texts:
I have made a huge mistake.

In Fallout Shelter, you can now go on quests. On these quests, like sending dwellers to the Wasteland, you can assign them Stimpacks and Radaway, and then heal them as necessary as they develop through the quest.

However, on one of the praticuarly more difficult quests, I missed assigning them with the Stimpacks and Radaway, and so they are unable to complete the quest (they keep dying about halfway through)*.

Is there anyway I can restart the quest to assign them the proper healing items to complete the quest?

*Yes I am aware that you find items throughout the quest (if you're lucky) however these are not enough to sustain the team.
