Since  my intention is to increase playing time obviously I intend to use only one device at a time


texts: "Discerning the Transmundane" - Can't place lexicon on receptacle

texts:
I've started the "Discerning the Transmundane" quest, went to the Tower of Mzark in Blackreach, then tried placing the lexicon on the receptacle. - Nothing happened. Reloaded the save, restarted the game, still nothing. The lexicon is on my inventory, but I can't place it.

It might be to the fact that I had somehow lost the attunement sphere, and had to player.additem it back. How to proceed with the quest?

If it matters, it's a level 27 Khajit, mostly one-handed and sneak.

Note: Completely sure I didn't drop the sphere. It just vanished from the inventory.


texts: Do counters, clean hits and other similar attributes modify damage?

texts:
Soul Calibur V seems to be much more mindful of specific types of hits than previous versions. I was wondering how these new hit attributes modified damage.

Do clean hits, 8way run counters, regular counters, etc modify the damage done to the opponent?
Do hits from the back, or hitting someone in the head modify the damage?
Do the damage properties stack? Does a clean hit counter do more damage than a clean hit or a counter individually? What is the most stacking that can happen on a single move? Can hit attributes be stacked with additional damage done as a result of hitting your opponent in the back?

texts: What are the benefits of waiting to drop troops second?

texts: I see people waiting to react 98% of the time. Unless I have a building (Tesla/bomb tower/etc.), I also wait.

texts: Some items have movement speed and some characters have movement speed buffs or skills. What is the fastest movement speed you can have in Diablo 3?


texts:
I am playing Portal: Still Alive on XBox 360. In the challenge maps, there are advanced levels for chambers 13-18 named like "14: Advanced" and just like the standard chambers, they have medal challenges in least portals, fastest time, and least footsteps.

The targets for these challenges appear to be exactly the same targets as their standard counterparts. For example, the Testchamber 13 least portals challenge gives bronze at 9 portals, silver at 5, and gold at 4. 13: Advanced also has bronze at 9 portals, silver at 5, and (presumably) gold at 4 even though the chamber is modified.

Also, from what I can gather online, the Orange Box version of the same game didn't have medal challenges for the advanced chambers at all (and still had the same medal challenges for the standard chambers).

These facts cause me to believe that the appearance of medal challenges for 13-18 advanced chambers was merely a oversight in the Portal: Still Alive version of the game.

Are these medal challenges impossible as I suspect?

People will remember Magikarp if we're talking about Splash and vice versa.

So, how about Celebrate and Hold Hands? Are they have related with some event (in Pokemon of course) or they're just... umm... useless moves?

texts:
I've recently started playing Civ 6, and am playing on Settler difficulty, as I believe it is the best way to get to know a new Civ game and its mechanics

But despite being the easiest difficulty level, I'm now facing bankruptcy because of spies constantly siphoning my funds.

At first I thought I had dealt with the problem by placing a spy of my own in my commercial district. In the beginning, my spy couldn't catch them all, but she eventually got promoted to Master Spy rank, and theft became much less frequent. I also helped her by adopting the Police State policy, which lowers loyalty in my cities, but makes it much harder for enemy spies to complete their missions.

Unfortunately, Siphon Funds appears to work very much like a time bomb. While I still had thousands of gold and a GPT of +380, my treasury eventually ended up empty, and my spy left my employ because of that.

I am now bankrupt, with spies from 11 different nations coming back for more, and even lost my only counterspy. I've asked every leader to stop spying on me, and fortunately they all agreed (although there's no guarantee they won't try to siphon more funds). I've also trained a new spy, but who knows how long she'll stay...

How do I deal with this situation, both short term and long term?

I need a strategy to replenish my treasury fast, otherwise my new spy isn't going to help for very long. And since the UI doesn't show me how the siphoning affects my GPT, I have no idea how much money I really need.

And once I'm back on my feet, I also need a better strategy to defend against future attack on my bank account. Obviously, employing a spy isn't good enough. Even my former master spy couldn't stop all attacks, which is what got me into this mess in the first place...


texts: Half-Life 2 (plus episodes) have a tendency of crashing my computer

texts:
I've recently started plowing through HL2 and the episodic content (currently starting out on Ep 2), and have noticed a weird problem.

It seems that after an undetermined amount of time, my computer will crash.  My computer is a notebook with an Nvidia dedicated graphics chip...its good enough to run HL2 and Fallout 3 (but as I'm away from it now, I don't have the specs handy).

I can combat this crashing issue by periodically alt+tabbing to my desktop and letting my computer relax for a bit.

On another note, my fans are completely clear when I play...airflow should not be a problem IMO.

On another another note, I have absolutely zero problems playing TF2 or CSS....TF2 will lag for me slightly if there is too much going on at once (i.e. 32 player mayhem), but no crashing.

Any thoughts?

texts: How can I interrupt the Source Nightmare's water attacks?

texts:
At the beginning of the battle with a giant crab-monster, the Source Nightmare, the characters mention how they have to prevent him from using the nearby water source to power up his attacks. The monster demonstrates what this looks like by sucking up an orb of water to spin around him.

A round or two later, he sucks up 3 more orbs at once. With 4 spinning around him, his water attack is able to one-shot my mages and nearly one-shot my tanks, and hits in an AoE. I've retried the fight by spreading my characters out, but having him just instantly wreck one of my characters is not really my ideal strategy, especially since that character will miss out on XP or force me to waste a lot of time building up action points to revive.

How can I interrupt his water bubbles so his attack isn't so powerful, or else how can I survive his insane damage output?

Inspecting the source of the game shows that "JON" is hard coded to be the top scorer and the remaining nine are randomly chosen from the list.

Are these "the trolls" mentioned in the ad?

Do these refer to community members or to Stack Exchange employees, and if not, what do they refer to?

texts: Multiple target selectors in the same command

texts:
I am trying to testfor if a player fulfills two different criteria. One criteria cannot be changed and is: score_money=5000. I have tried to come up with another criteria to target a very specific player. For example I've tried:

/testfor @p[tag=buyHSR,score_money=5000]

/testfor @p[l=30,score_money=5000]

/testfor @p[score_buy=1,score_money=4500]

The problem, all of these commands work on singleplayer, and not on multiplayer. What happens on multiplayer is that it will testfor the score_money=500 of the nearest player and execute the following commands despite whether or not that same player has the score_buy=1 tag. So, if I am closest to the command blocks and have insufficient money but my friend has enough, who is farther away, the selector will find my friend but execute the commands for me. (This causes my money score to reach into the negatives). In summary, the target selector favors one criteria over the other depending on who has one of the criteria. I am trying to get a selector that will succeed only if both citeria are met.
 I am running Minecraft 1.12.2.

As far as I know at this stage it is impossible to get water into the Nether. I know it could be done in previous versions with silk touch and ice, but that is over now. And in the new versions silk touch will work on ice, but breaking ice in the Nether will not give you water.

So I am looking for a good setup so I can make some potions in the Nether, mostly instant health, splash damage, and speed potions.

One solution I often read is bringing filled water bottles into the Nether, but that is just a 1-1 solution, I do not like that too much.

I was thinking of the following setup. I fill a chest in the Nether with water buckets, and one chest with stacks of all the ingredients I need. Than in the brewing station I have a cauldron. Now if I understand correctly with a filled cauldron you can fill 3 bottles.

So now I can bring buckets of water instead of bottles, so 1 inventory space will give me 3 potions.

One thing also is that when you go back you can fill all the buckets with lava.

Will this be a good setup, or are there more efficient ways to create your brewing station in the Nether.

texts:
I've built a JK flipflop - specifically, the A version, from Redstone JK flip-flops - and it works - sort of. It doesn't behave as described in the wiki, and I'm not sure if the wiki description is wrong, or if I built something wrong - or maybe the Beta release changed something.

The wiki says that the type-A flip-flop is edge-triggered, and will change its output when the Clock goes from 0 to 1, or 1 to 0. For a Clock, I'm using a Switch on the side of a block (with three Redstone wires between it and the circuit, rather than the one wire in the diagram - for some reason, it breaks with only one wire between two blocks.)

When I flip the switch down, it transitions from 0 to 1 (unpowered to powered wire), which causes the Output to change, as expected. But when I flip the switch back up (transition from 1 to 0), I get no Output change (for any combination of J and K).

Just for fun, I hooked up a 5-Clock as input, in case there was something strange about switches on blocks. But again, the Output only changed when the wire from the Clock went from unpowered to powered, and not the other way.

So is that how a JK flip-flop really works? At least in Minecraft, not the real world. :)

texts: Why don't I see any increase in my run speed when I equip an item with Fleet Primal Diamond?

texts: I have a head item with a Fleet Primal Diamond equipped in the meta socket. The text of Fleet Primal Diamond says: "+27 mastery and minor run speed increase". However, when I equip it, I don't see any change in the run speed reported in the stats window. It says 110% both before and after. Does this gem not work anymore? Am I too high level?


texts: Made my first server and I need help with the scoreboard

texts:
I know how scoreboards work, and i have one set up already. the thing is, its set to totalKillCount and give 1 point for each kill. I want to give more points for killing tougher mobs.
How do I make it so it gives different points for different mobs, but also have all of the scores show up on the same scoreboard? For example, 2 points for killing a creeper, but 7 points for killing a ravager?
My server is a PvP and PvE.

texts: Why do Pokémon keep escaping from captures?

texts: I've been playing Pokémon Go for some days now and I'm lvl 13. Lately it's been getting harder to catch Pokémon, as they keep escaping! At lvl 13, Pokémon keep escaping after the first throw 20 times in a row. If I'm going out with 20 Pokéballs while this is happening I won't come back with a new Pokémon. I even tried a great ball + a berry on a lvl 10 Pidgey. And after the first throw it escaped and flew away.

texts: Spoilers in Game of Thrones (2012 Role-Playing Game)

texts:
I would like to play Game of Thrones (the 2012 Role-Playing Game), but I am not up to date with the books/TV series.

I have watched seasons 1 & 2, and I have read the first 3 books (A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings & A Storm of Swords, parts 1 & 2) and don't want any spoilers to ruin the books for me.

Are there any spoilers within the game events that happen in the books or TV series?

Is there any information that specifies the 'minimum' point that you can play without any spoilers?

I guess what I really want to know is at what point in the novels the game reaches to (without spoilers).

texts:
In public matchmaking games I'm often paired with players using Hitler, Mussolini and the Norwegian mass-murderer Anders Behring Breivik facial photographs as profile images, among other fascist leaders and terrorists. This is not an exaggeration and is based on over 1000 hours of playtime.
Also major streamers are unable to play in official matchmaking due to graphic imagery (WARNING - very offensive footage).

There is "mini-scoreboard style" option in game settings to hide the images during gameplay, but the photos are displayed at least when you are killed, spectating and inspecting scoreboard.

texts:
I've been playing the past few days, and I have most of the basics down fairly well. I'm maintaining 50-100 residents no problem, so that's a good step up from a few days ago. However I'm always barely maintaining my resource count.

What I mean is that my current town of ~45 residents is running off 3 forrester's lodges each staffed full, and only then am I able to maintain a positive supply of logs and firewood. Constructing any new buildings essentially wastes my firewood supply to 0 for a season or two until I have spare logs for firewood (and I'm only talking about 50-100 logs for additional buildings in a given year). Does this seem normal, or am I mis-managing something?

I'm also concerned with maintaining iron and stone. Both my current town and the previous one I've mined up all surface stone/iron that I could within reasonable distance of my town. I don't want to build quarries because that land can never be used from then on. I've gone about 15 years on my previous town and 10 years on this one, and not once have I seen stone or iron offered through trading. Again, what would be the better strategy in this case?


texts: How can I improve my aim on Urban Terror?

texts:
I would love to be able to get better shots on Urban Terror (fun but frustrating game). My mouse is a wee bit slow it seems (bad surface, not so much bad mouse, though of course the mouse is wired and that causes problems).

When I shoot it sometimes seems like half my shots do no damage even if I'm standing right in front of the person and shooting them in the head (no joke).

When others shoot me, they sometimes are not even aiming correctly and can kill me with a single bullet from guns like the l300!

So, is there anything I can do to improve my aim?


texts: Is the Inventory in Diablo 3 larger for Collector's Edition?

texts:
I have the Collector's Edition of Diablo 3 and play online with people whom have either bought the downloaded version or the disk version of the game. I have been noticing that they have to go to town to unload goods more often then I do. When I have shown them screen shots of my inventory they claim the it is about twice as big as what they have available to them.

Is this true that you get a bigger inventory with Collector's Edition versus other versions? I wouldn't think so but am not sure given their comments.

UPDATE: Screenshot of my inventory. 60 slots total. BTW, I am mostly convinced they are hoarders but just want independent confirmation. :)


texts: Has the rate at which items are heated changed with the July 30 patch?

I understand that you have to take items to a forge now to level them up, and that you may potentially get bonus heat in this process.  But in specific regards to the clockworks, has anything changed?


texts: Is there a reasonable way to obtain enough Eldwater to promote a unit from 4 stars to 5 stars?

texts:
In order to promote an Adventurer from 4 stars to 5 stars, a total of 25,000 Eldwater is required, compared to the 2,500 required to promote from 3 stars to 4 stars. The only ways I've found that you can obtain Eldwater is through getting duplicate Adventurers in summons and the roughly 100 you get from daily endeavors.

Now the issue is that you get very little Eldwater from duplicate summons (500-1000 if I remember correctly) and only 100 from daily endeavors. Without spending any money and only doing the daily endeavors, that's 250 days worth of endeavors. If we include summons through Wyrmite, in this example tenfold summons, you maybe get 2 Adventurers per summon. Assuming both of those are duplicates, that's still only 1000-2000 Eldwater per summon. To reach the amount of Eldwater required for a promotion using only summons, that's still 13-25 tenfold summons.

The amount of Eldwater required to promote from 4 stars to 5 stars is so extreme that I feel like I'm missing some important or simpler way to obtain the resource.


texts: Is there any significance to the "big name toys" in Fallout 4?

Scattered in among the random junk in Fallout 4 are a couple of recurring toys, that are of rather large size. You find parts for a Giddyup Buttercup (and a complete one, at one point), a lot of Jangles the Moon Monkey, and even some alien toy.

Is there any significance to collecting these beyond just their value as junk parts? Should I bother to pick them up or keep any around outside of my workshops?

texts: Hydro Plant not allowing water flow through

texts:
In my city, I have a hydro plant that is sitting across a river quite near my city. This dam holds back all of the water and there is a significant drop in water level before and after. When I say significant difference, I mean that on the up-river side the river is lapping at the edges of the river and at the down-river side, the river is totally empty.

However, my problem is that the hydro plant doesn't let any water through, and therefore is not generating any power (0MWh out). I can't for the life of me work out why this is happening, and it's bugging me because I don't want to have to buy another solar plant just yet.

The river in question runs out of a lake, joins with another river and then runs out into the sea. Although I do have water pumps on the upriver side of the dam, they are not consuming anywhere near enough water to totally drain the river.

Are there any ideas as to why I can't get my free river power?

I've tried using console commands to fix it, but I can't seem to get it working. setstage commands and setobjectivecompleted commands do not work at all for this quest, they seem to have no effect at all when I use player.sqs and getstage.

The command resetquest places the quest back in to the active quests but the stages still cannot be altered. But, I've noticed that if I save and load the game, the quest disappears from the active quests and completed quests and no commands are able to bring it back.

I do not have any mods at all. Is there anyway I can get the objective "Return to Jorrvaskr" marked as completed?

texts: Is it possible to play Path of Exile entirely solo?

texts: I know that the game doesn't have an offline mode, but at the time being I'd prefer playing entirely solo, without seeing or interacting with other player characters.

texts: How does the DPS between Nova's rank 5 evolutions compare?

texts:
At rank 5, Nova can evolve one of two different ways, Power Recharge  or Half Blast. The descriptions are:

Power Recharge - Increase recharge speed of all powers by 25% for 15s.

Damage: 385
Force: 585N
Radius: 4m

Half Blast - Gain the option to use nova two times in a row by reducing its barrier consumption by 50% but at the cost of reducing damage and force by 40%.

Damage: 245
Force: 405N
Radius: 4m

Given these statistics, how much DPS does each version of the power do over the same period of time, all other factors (enemy shields/armor/barrier, difficulty, etc.) being equal? I'm having trouble figuring this out by eyeballing it because I'm unsure if Power Recharge increases Nova's recharge as well and what effect that would have.

If there are other, more situational factors that would significantly affect the DPS output that are more clear from hands-on experience with each version (basically, if it sounds good on paper but actually isn't so much in practice), please mention those in your answer.

I've tried joining other servers to Make sure it isn't just the Realm, on the server list it shows the connection strength and everything, but as soon as I join, I get the same thing. What's funny is I was able to personally host a Minecraft server completely fine from my own IP, and I'm able to play online any other game perfectly fine, but Minecraft is the exception here.

I've already Googled all I could think of, trying multiple methods, but so far nothing has worked. I don't really have any other details to give, the launcher acts perfectly normal, not even throwing up an error in the log.

Basically all I'm asking is how can I fix this? I know I didn't give out much details, but hopefully someone can throw out any ideas?

texts: How is American Exceptionalism shown throughout the Bioshock Titles?

texts:
As I am reading through a wiki on Bioshock it mentions Bioshock Infinite having a connection to the other titles through a theme. The theme being American Exceptionalism, which is easily noticable in Bioshock Infinite (even with it not being released yet) but not as noticable in the other two titles.

  while a third game entitled BioShock Infinite by
  Irrational Games is presently under development, though it is only
  thematically connected to the previous titles

Wiki source

I've heard this talk from a die hard as well, he mention something similiar although he had a different take on the whole thing.

So how is American Exceptionalism the theme that connects the Bioshock titles?

texts: Will Steam only install games (and DRM) after I first run them?

texts:
Can I trust that Steam won't install any software such as DRM, DirectX or other libraries before I actually run the game?

The reason I ask is that I'd like to download a sizeable portion of my library. Since that's approaching the terabyte range and could take a week or more I'd like to download all the necessary files to my (always-on) home server and then move them to my desktop. But that server is a clean install of Windows Server 2012 and I really don't want to pollute it with all manner of DRM and other shenanigans.

It used to be that Steam wouldn't run installers until the first run of the program and it certainly seems like Steam still has to configure something after I download a game, but can I fully trust that it won't install anything as part of the download process? All I've found on the subject was a steam forum post from 2015 which is a less-than-authoritative source.

Note: I have checked related questions but none seem to cover this exact scenario. I've only found related questions about moving downloaded games, installing DRM-free games without Steam or the security of the Steam application itself.

I’m on the quest ‘The Break of Dawn’, the one that Meridia gives you. Instead of getting the beacon and going to her shrine, I went to her shrine and she gave me the quest.

It keeps on happening and it won’t stop. I’ve fast traveled away, then came back.

I was wondering how this will affect or stack with in-game skill rate modifiers, like Standing Stones. For example, if I have The Lover Stone's effects (learn all skills 15% faster) active, how will this affect or stack with the 2x Skill Increase mod? How much total skill increase rate will I get?

What about the other in-game skill increase rate-modifying Standing Stones (Warrior, Thief and Mage stones) or abilities like Ancient Knowledge (+25% Armor if wearing all Dwarven armor, smithing skill increases 15% faster).

texts: How can I avoid the Civilization 5 glitch where all the players go to Prince setting?

My friends and I keep trying to do multiplayer games of Civilization 5, but we have a lot of trouble- the difficulty always resets to Prince. Apparently, this is a huge problem for a lot of people and Firaxis hasn't fixed the problem in >3 years now. Are there any ways to avoid the issue? I have ruled out the starting difficulty as the cause of the glitch, and I have ruled out that it is not specific to whether you are playing online or on LAN.

It has become obvious that we can't fix the glitch, I just would like to know how to avoid it.


texts: Does taking Piero's Workshop Key in Dishonored have any negative effects further in the story?

texts: Right before being assigned your first assassination in Dishonored, you can pick up Piero's Workshop Key next to the Hound Pits Pub. Due to the harsh nature the game has in regards to some choices, and as there's a sidequest later in the game where Piero and another character are hiding in his workshop, does picking up this key have any consequences at that point? Or will you still find Piero and his friend safe in hiding?

texts: What's the best strategy to destroy the bottom sentry on AI Station 404?

texts:
How to destroy the bottom sentry (B) ?  It seems natural to proceed the same way than for the first sentry (A): let the drones get under its fire, using them as a tank, and shoot it down.  But the drones won't get to this sentry because of the bouncer (right after the first sentry (A)) which will send them to the upper sentry (C).

Flying bots will engage the bottom sentry, but they don't seem to have the "tank" ability, like the regular drones, making them more resistant to sentries' fire.

So how to safely/efficiently deal with it ?  Any idea or suggestion ?

texts: Minecraft strange screen spliting behavior of display

texts:
I'm evaluating a Minecraft demo, but I'm facing a strange issue.

The games runs at a constant 60FPS which is fine. However, the game screen is split in two, from TopLeft to BottomRight (diagonal split). Each of the side of these lines renders with a few delay, and it leads to a strange behavior and make the game feeling a bit sick. This is especially visible when strafing, there are clearly two parts of the screen.

[Edit] Added a capture from a phone of the issue:

Also a video capture :

At first I thought it was due to a v-sync issue, but I think v-sync issue are horizontal slit... not diagonal. Anyway, I tried with and without, even forces in the GPU settings.

If I take a screenshot, no glitch.

If I capture a video of playing (using fraps, 60imgs/s), no glitch too in the resulting video.

Any thoughts?

PS:

latest drivers have been installed
I'm playing on an Asus Zenbook Pro (Intel i76700HQ + 16Gb + Nvidia GTX960)
I've set up nvidia settings to enforce the GPU to be used (avoid optimus issue)

Same issue with packaged java, and latest version of Java (tested both 32 and 64 bits)
My OS is Windows 10 pro (latest version, all possible updates)
No antivirus software when playing

texts: Is there a way I can avoid imperial ships?

Whenever I am traveling on foot, imperial ships will fly by and drop down troops for me to fight. In a normal situation, this is no big deal and I will fight or flee to continue with my travels.

However this will also occur when I am doing a quest that requires me to locate and pick up items. This is an inconvenience as I cannot pick up items while in combat and I have to kill them before I can continue.

Is there a way I can "hide" and allow the ships to by pass my location?

texts: The Witcher I - Cannot find recipes for oils

texts:
I'm stuck a little with my Witcher I walkthrough.
I play Witcher I (EE) with FCR mod installed and use the 4th difficulty (of total 6). Monsters are really tough with this mod and I basically need to use specific oils.

I'm in Act III currently and I have to fight with vampires and wyverns sometimes, but for some reason I cannot find appropriate oils to beat them. I've read books about vampires and ornithosaurs, but no recipes have appeared in my recipes list. I managed to kill Royal Wyvern without any oil, but it was really challenging.

I've already checked all available book traders, alchemists and antiquarians, but no one seems to have necessary recipe for sale.

I've also checked wiki for help and it shows me that I need The Book of the Wolverine for ornithosaur oil and The Book of the Full Moon for vampire oil. And according to wiki both of these books will be available later in the game (Act IV). I'm afraid Geralt won't make it till then without oils.

So does anyone know where I can find necessary recipes? Or I have faced an unexpected bug?

texts: Did World of Tanks entirely abandon its former "pay-to-win" business strategy?

texts:
According to Gamasutra, World of Tanks used to give an edge to paying players, but fortunately the developer Wargaming.net promised to "remove all "pay-to-win" purchase options from all of its current and upcoming titles."

Do all players now have an equal chance to win, or do paying customers still have an advantage over free players? For example, do paying customers have more garage space or unlock new items and vehicles at faster rate?

A definition for a pay-to-win game:

  A common suggestion for avoiding pay-to-win is that payments should only be used to broaden the experience without affecting gameplay. For example, Dota 2 only allows the purchase of cosmetic items, meaning that a "free-to-play player" will be on the same level as a player who has spent money on the game.

texts: Is GeForce GTS 250 not enough to play NFS Hot Pursuit (2010)?

texts:
My PC specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4 GHz
3 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 1 GB
GeForce driver version 258.96
1680x1050 Native Resolution LCD Monitor
Windows 7 Ultimate

According to this website, my PC specs are more than capable of handling more that what are the recommended specs to play NFS: Hot Pursuit. In practice, that's not the case. I'm forced to use the following graphics settings to maintain the minimum frame rate at which I'm comfortable to play:

1440x900 resolution
Shadow: None
High Resolution Texture: Off

I'm missing a great deal of graphics for this game. I've played Mafia II and StarCraft II at the highest visual settings with no frame rate lagging problems. Actually, this is the first game I've encountered that has frame rate lagging problems with the GeForce GTS 250.

Any idea why this could happen? What can I do to increase frame rate with the highest graphics settings?

Note: In the background I use Avira AntiVirus and the Windows built-in firewall. I don't think this causes the frame rate to lag, however, as they were turned on while I played Mafia II / StarCraft II and all the other games.

I recently started playing Xenoblade Chronicles on the 3DS and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the quests since they are available at different times of day and can unlock in areas I have already been.

Using the information I found on the Xenoblade wikia, I was able to write a program to make the data more manageable. I am able to get a master list of the quest triggers thanks to the breakdown provided per region, but I don't know their ordering in relation to the other triggers from other regions. Here is a master list of all the quest triggers among the different regions in order of region where first found and occurrence order within that region:

Available at the start
After meeting Reyn at the Weapon Dev. Lab
After beginning the trip to Colony 6
After Sharla Joins
After reaching the Colony 6 area
After reaching Satorl Marsh
After cutscene at the Sororal Statues
After reaching Makna Forest
After Melia Joins
After Riki Joins
After Mechonis Core
After reaching Vilia Lake in Tephra Cave
After reaching the Bionis' Leg
After Colony 6 reconstruction begins
After reaching Eryth Sea
After Prison Island
After meeting Miqol in the Hidden Village
After reaching the Central Factory
After the attack on Colony 6
After reaching Frontier Village
After unlocking access to Valak Mountain
After reaching Alcamoth
After reaching Valak Mountain
While traveling to Prison Island
After leaving for the High Entia Tomb
After reaching Sword Valley
After reaching Galahad Fortress
After reaching Fallen Arm
After reaching the Hidden Village
After unlocking access to Mechonis Field
After reaching Agniratha
After reaching the Ventilation Conduit
During Mechonis Core
Second visit to Prison Island

What is the actual order of these events over the course of the game?

texts: What is the most efficient way of achieving all possible endings?

texts:
I understand that in Bioshock 2 the game will have different endings based on your decisions to save or harvest little sisters.

Rather than replaying the game from scratch for each possible ending, I was thinking about getting to a point whereby all endings were still obtainable.  From this save, I could make copies for each of the path (therefore will only need to play part of the game, rather than the full game all over again).

How should I proceed to creating such a save?  I want to be as far into the game as possible and don't mind back tracking empty rooms to revisit sisters.

Is this even feasible?

Also, would it be possible to combine this save with collecting every single audio log?

In the end I want to saves for each of the endings (with all audio logs collected).  I will discard the "point of no return" save once all endings are achieved.

I remember from the early days of WoW (definitely before Burning Crusade) that there was a hack that if you locally replaced the mesh of the campfire you could create arbitrary geometries in your client that would allow you to basically walk over thin air when seen from other clients.

I recently tried googleing this, but I couldn't find any references to that.
Did this actually work? Are there any screenshots or even videos of that?
Since this hack obviously doesn't work anymore and probably hasn't worked in more than a decade, I don't think this question is against the rules.

texts: Is it normal to have a 'Can't keep up' event on reload?

texts:
I am currently setting-up a Minecraft server on a VPS. For the most part, the server is brilliant and does not have any lag (with one player online, the entire VPS only uses 0.4% CPU [reported by top]).

However when I trigger a reload (using /reload ingame), I am kicked after around ten seconds and a Can't keep up! event is recorded in the log:

  [18:52:56] [Server thread/WARN]: Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server overloaded? Running 33664ms behind, skipping 673 tick(s)

Since the Minecraft server is running Craftbukkit with many plugins (such as WorldEdit & Factions), is overloading expected on a /reload (I'm sure it's expected behaviour, but I wanted to double-check)?

The VPS has 16 CPU cores (Intel Xeon E5550), 30GB RAM, and 800GB HDD (aka, more than enough), on Ubuntu 14.04. There are other programs hosted on the VPS such as a MySQL server, Apache2, and Teamspeak3 (I plan to move the webserver & MySQL server to a standalone server as soon as I'm in the position financially to do so). Other programs are not stealing resources.

This is the server's startup line, enabling use of all cores on the VPS & using 27GB of RAM (leaving only 3GB for the OS & other programs):

java -jar -d64 -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalPacing -XX:ParallelGCThreads=16 -XX:+AggressiveOpts -Xms8G -Xmx27G /games/minecraft/minecraft-server.jar

The Minecraft is set to start-up on boot via a screen session executing the above startup line, in rc.init.

Is this behavior expected of a server that is reloading?

I'm 99% a console gamer. My brain prefers that I have a controller in my hand. However, when a game requires that I use a thumbstick/control stick/analog stick to aim/target, I enter a world of frustration. So I usually stick with platformers.

When I do play games that require aiming/targeting with a thumb stick, seems I only have two speeds: extremely fast, shooting past the enemy, or creeping the enemy, never making it there. It gets even worse when I need to reposition the camera with the other thumb. I can feel the bad guys laughing at me. It's humiliating.

How can I improve my thumb-stick aiming? I'd like to expand the repertoire of games I enjoy.

texts: Hilbert curve sequence according to Ingress regional scoring grid?

texts:
The new regional scoring grid for Ingress (Regional Scoring - This Changes Everything - DeCode Ingress) is based on an S2 (Hilbert curve) global grid as used in Geometry on the Sphere: Google's S2 Library and an encoding described in request: regional scoring cell borders · Issue #741 · jonatkins/ingress-intel-total-conversion.

That allows every point in the world to be mapped to a point along the Hilbert curve, and begs existential questions like:

Where does the region s2 / hilbert curve start for the Americas face (AM)?
Where does it end?
How do the 6 faces of the cube line up?
Is there a good argument for a well-defined start to the whole curve?  On which face?

And, for extra credit, to go to the limit, the whole enchilada: what is the sequence of all Ingress portals by Hilbert curve order (adding additional levels as necessary)?  :)

So I'm having to face him at the bottom with a full health bar.  I also appear to be unable to do the kick attack and the forward jump attack.  All of these are on RB or RT on the XBox.  I'm playing with an old Thrustmaster joypad.  I'm wondering if the joypad is the problem.  Is anybody playing through on the PC using an XBox controller and is able to successfully pull off these moves?


texts: Will the corruption/hallow be able to jump across my shaft?

  In hardmode, how large of a gap can hallow/corruption cross?

I understand that this question has been asked loads of time, but all the forums, wikis and answers I am seeing give different answers, so I am confused in regard to what and what not the corruption/hallow is able to jump across.

That picture asks my question. But, to add a bit more, I understand that there are also other factors (such as corruptors, the infection from other directions), that might cause this area to become infected. Lets forget about those factors, all I am asking is if the corruption/hallow will be able to jump across this shaft.


texts: Why is my AE storage bus not inputting items?

texts: I have barrels hooked up to my AE network using AE Storage Buses. If I remove an item that is stored in these barrels using my AE Access Terminal, it removes a stack of the barreled item and puts it into my inventory. If I insert a stack of the same item, into the AE Terminal, it puts the stack into a storage drive, rather than the appropriate barrel. How can I fix this without using an Export Bus? The AE website explicitly states that Storage Buses work with both in-port and export, and that they are 100% compatible with Factorization Barrels.


texts: Unable to connect locally to minecraft server

texts:
I want to turn an old ubuntu laptop into a minecraft server supposed to run within my home.
Minecraft is in place, I can fire it up and see the gui and run it in a terminal as well.

Laptop IP is 192.168.0.22 and according to server.properties the port is 25565 but when I enter these information into minecraft pe on my phone I am unable to connect to the server.

My goal is just to let this run within our home no public access is needed. But what am I missing?


texts: How do I prevent hallowed jhen from breaking the boat?

texts:
I have attempted to slay the mighty Hallowed Jhen Mohran a couple times now and the expedition has always ended in failure due to our boat taking too much damage. Every time we've had about 10 minutes left in the quest in the second stage of the fight. I'm looking for tips on how to prevent this from happening and I have a few questions about the boat mechanic.

Which of Jhen's attacks damage the boat?
Do the boat damaging attacks all do the same amount of damage to the boat?
How much "health" does the boat have?
In addition to the above questions, what are some things to keep in mind during this fight?

Some further background: I only have the 3ds version so going online is unfortunately not an option. I either hunt solo or with 1 other friend. Typically I take the ballista binder, but I am still learning the attack patterns so I must admit I miss quite a few of the opportunities. I use gunlance and lance and my friend uses switch axe. At this point we've build up our arsenal enough to have a g-rank weapon of each element and rarity 9 armors.


texts: Is the second city available on BMC for android

texts:
I am playing Bloons Monkey City on Android. Various forums etc mention a second city but I can't figure out how to get to it or how it works. I am high level and have build almost all buildings and researched almost all technologies.

Is the second city a feature on the Android version? If so how do I access it?
