texts: Why should I keep my characters at low levels in Final Fantasy VI?

texts:
up till now I've played only FF Tactics Advance and FFI (also on GBA). Now I started playing newly bought FFVI for android devices. I've made a few steps, fought a few battles, then thought that maybe I should read about how should I raise my heroes ... and gamefaqs.com killed me with the info, that on my first battle I should kill Terra. Further reading of other guides/walkthroughs made me think that I really should do it and always try to keep my level as low as possible because of some level averaging. I understand that at some point levels of my "heroes" is going to be "averaged" ... ok, whatever, but why should I keep my levels low? usually in RPG games it's better to be on as high level as possible, so WTF?

Can anybody tell my how should I play this game (i ask only about this leveling stuff) and why? should I really run away from most of my battles?
that's really unusual style for me so it would mean to me that I must play with the guide all the time :| this takes away all the fun


texts: Does the Angler NPC have spawn requirements?

texts: According to the Angler page on the official wiki, this NPC can be found sleeping in the sand of an Ocean biome. Are there any other specific requirements to find him, i.e. hard mode or the like? I searched both ocean biomes in my world, and I didn't run into this new character. Is encountering him, like most other things in this game, simply random?


texts:
I'm a level 173 Nord. I checked each city and town yet I haven't been able to fight the Ebony Warrior. I have all the DLC that exist for for this game yet no matter where I go, I can't find him.

I've even checked Raven Rock, Tel Mithryn, and Skaal village but there is no sign of him. I've fought quite a lot of legendary dragons and I know that they appear when the Ebony Warrior decides to challenge you.

If you could me that would be great cause I've been itching for a good fight in an long time. I'm on Xbox 360.

Plus when I go on random rampages as a vampire lord I never see the ebony warrior anywhere just a ton of guards and a few townsfolk. (I go on rampages cause I can't find him)


texts: Dirt Rod seems to only remove dirt, not move it around?

texts:
I got the Dirt Rod and started using it on, well, Dirt Blocks.

I thought I managed to move them around at first, but when I moved to my nearly totally flooded Underground, the Dirt I pick up with it seems to disappear and not be moved elsewhere.

Is that what it does, just remove Dirt Blocks?


texts: Where can I find gleamy/sparkling ooblets?

texts: So each ooblet species comes in three types: common, uncommon, and gleamy (sparkling). What are the spawn conditions for the gleamies? Are they more likely to spawn during rainbow rain? Can gleamy ooblets hatch from plants? Is there any easy way to predict when gleamies have spawned nearby?


texts: Does the "Deep Mining" upgrade do anything in Iron Will mode?

texts:
I'm currently playing Iron Will, and am at the point where I need tons of coal. Normally, the Deep Mining upgrade adds a coal per tick for each miner you have, however, since I don't have any kittens, I don't have any miners.

Does this upgrade have a hidden extra effect in Iron Will mode, like, say, meteors made of coal? Or is this upgrade completely useless if you don't have any miners?


texts: Why did some of my fruit trees not grow to the next stage?

texts:
In the picture below, I have separated my trees with 2 horizontal spaces and 1 vertical space from the next tree. They are all non-native trees and were planted on the same day. (The holes are for spatial reference and were not there while the trees were left for one night)

Why did the trees in the middle region not grow? The trees on the edges advanced to the next growth stage while those in the middle of the plantation pattern did not. Is there a probability where they fail to advance? Or is there a maximum number of plants that will advance to the next stage in a day? (Because I did plant a whole lot of trees and maybe I exceeded some maximum number?)

texts: I participated in some Conquests, and in some of them, my team won. But, the prizes seemed to have no correlation with the points I put in (In one round, I had 1 point, got 2000 Coins, but in another, put 4 points, and got 1000 Coins). How does the game decide what people get for participating? Is it a set prize, or does it depend on something else?


texts: Lydia hit with Wabbajack stick and disappeared!

texts:
I haven’t seen this exact question before in my search for an answer:
I was using my Wabbajack stick on a wolf and Lydia jumped in front of me to attack the wolf. I ended up blasting her with the stick and she disappeared. No body and no transformation that I could see. Is there any way to get her back from this? Might she have turned into an animal and run away unnoticed? If she died, wouldn’t her body still be there?


texts:
In The Dig, where do you get the clue to solve the puzzle in the control panel in Nexus? I'm talking about the alignment of the lens for the power source, as show here:

When I played the game I had to grab a walkthrough just for that part. But nowadays this still bugs me.


texts:
I've listened to Ringo explain the game, I've read the explanation in-game, but honestly, it doesn't make any sense to me.

What card can I play when and why? What do the face cards do?

I'm sure it's a fun game, but the developers could really have done a better job at the explanation.


texts: How long do I need to wait to reconnect to the pokemon bank after it is "locked" due to interrupted communication?

texts:
I have been trying to transfer over all my old pokemon and I think I may have overdone it.  I am receiving the error:

  Communication with the server was interrupted during your previous
  session, so the server has been locked.  Please wait a short while and
  then try to connect again.

Is there a specific time that the server is discretizing so as to keep me from constantly trying to reconnect?  And as a follow up, is this (probably) actually due to a disconnect or is the bank trying to limit my access?


texts: Is it possible to run GOG Galaxy inside Steam via steam-store application?

texts:
I know that on Steam it is possible to run non-steam applications and games via "Add non-steam game", but I'm running Steam via Geforce Now service where this way doesn't work. You can add non-steam games but you can't succesfully execute them. I have two questions then:

Is it possible to run GOG client as a Steam app (I couldn't find on Steam Store)?
Is it possible to run GOG client using some Steam app available on the store - maybe some kind of file manager or something like that?

I was trying to find some apps to do this but could't find anything resembling general launcher or file manager. Maybe I was looking in wrong places.


texts: Can someone explain hardpoint scanners / weapons to me?

texts:
So I just did the elite dangerous tutorial missions and in one of them I had to do a "K-warrant scan", which you do not do automatically when targetting.

Now I had to press [U](hardpoint deployment) and than scan (if I remember correctly, basically by using fire primary weapon (left-mouse click).

But in another tutorial I had to do these exact steps to fire my guns at an enemy (combat training).

So this special scan seems to operate like a weapon would.

But in the tutorial it's all perfectly setup I presume, but how does this work practically?

How does the game know I want to scan, not fire weapons?

Can you switch between scanners and weapons? and if so: how?


texts: I'm a level 40 champion and I've had the books for the legendary skills for about a day of gameplay and I've talked to Gimli, I've read multiple things about people finding every page in a single Angmar run, but I haven't had a single page fall for me, What should I do?


texts:
I just realized that in all my time within the Nether I've never had a mob spawn in my netherwart farm. Now, while this would make sense after my farm was complete, because of the netherwart being on the block, it took my quite a bit of time to fill up all my blocks with netherwart. And in all that time (3-5 hours) I never got a single zombie pigman in my farm.

Can Zombie Pigmen spawn on soulsand?

texts:
Can I go freely around the Wastelands or do I have to consider a time limit for quests or regions? I know that right of the start you are confronted with the decision to either help the Agriculture Center or Highpool or neither.

Yet I am asking more in a general sense:

Does the world react to my deeds in the sense that I trigger any progress in a quest; or is time passing in the background without my knowledge, possibly changing certain quests or making them impossible to complete?

texts: What does teleporter and armor pack uptime mean?

"X% teleporter uptime" for Symmetra, and
"X% armor pack uptime" for Torbjorn.

What does "uptime" mean in these cards?


texts:
I've been thinking of creating a stealth/ Syringer Rifle character build for Fallout 4. The general idea is a character who relies on short range stealth melee and long range Syringer Rifle attacks to get by.

The Syringer Rifle is different from every other Fallout 4 weapon (I know of) in that you have to craft your own ammo - and most of the Syringer Ammo is non-lethal.

This makes me wonder about what Fallout 4 Perks apply to the Syringer Rifle. For example does Riflesman or Ninja increase the damage for Bleed-out or Radscorpion venom syringes?

And does Luck have any effect on the syringes with "Chance" effect? If I select a Critical in VATS will the "Chance" effect always be applied?

What perks apply to the Syringer Rifle in Fallout 4?


texts:
In Fallout 4's new Survival Mode, you must stay well fed, among other things, to keep in good health. Failing to do so can cause fatigue, temporarily hurt your S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats, lower immunity, and even cause physical damage.

Does cannibalism satisfy your hunger the same way food in your inventory does, so that you can remain in good health? To be clear, I am asking if cannibalizing a fallen enemy replenishes the 'food' gauge mechanic that is in the new survival mode (not the health bar), or will I still need to pack cooked food before venturing out?


texts: Copied game to a USB, but wont launch now

texts: I took a USB flash drive to a friend and we copied a couple of games of his Xbox 360 to my drive, but when I took it home and put it in my Xbox it said that it couldn't launch it


texts: Is there a way to continue the current game immediately after launching?

texts:
Many games, especially older ones, had a command line to automatically load the last saved game. I know that Kingdom Come is moddable and has a console, so I was wondering if there's one way or another to set the game so that "Continue" is triggered immediately.

It would be quite helpful, given the long loading times, during which I usually leave the computer while the game is loading.

The player's car can easily go through road accelerators in reverse direction as demonstrated in this video.


texts: Turn off AI "Rebase" animations in Civilization 5?

texts:
I have all animations off, quick movement on, quick combat on, quick selection advance on, etc. However, the "rebase" animation still plays on AI turns. And, unfortunately, the AI almost always rebases all aircraft every turn. Are there any hidden ways to turn this off?

It can take minutes between peacetime turns, just because the AI feels the need to move a dozen aircraft from city to city every turn.

This happens in both normal game view and strategic view, so using strategic view is not an option here.


texts: What is the difference between yellow and white unlocked Storylets?

texts:
I noticed that in the list of unlocked Storylets that always appear below the Opportunity Deck, some are yellow and some are plain white (or cream, I suppose.)

What is the difference between the yellow ones and the plain ones? Should I focus my attention on one or the other?


texts:
An ongoing in-joke in the SCUMM-based LucasArts adventure games was hiding Max (from the Sam and Max comic, then later Sam and Max Hit the Road) in the scenery. He was never (or almost never) something you could interact with, just a little easter egg.

Does anyone know where (if) he's hidden in Monkey Island 2, and whether or not his hidden visage is visible in the new Special Edition's graphics as well?


texts: What is the difference between Lazarus and Isaac

texts: I've unlocked Lazarus in Rebirth, and played with him, but except for having a lovely head of hair, he seems identical to Isaac. They have the same stats listed, and Laz starts with no extra items. Are there any other differences, or is it purely cosmetic?

But when I get in the lab there are bunch of guards I need to kill, or pay the bounty and leave. Of course If I kill guards, my bounty will skyrocket, and I can't really kill every guard in Markarth, to get away with it... so how do I get around this?


texts: Random glitchess in graphics in every game

I have changed my name and waited, but it still lists me as my old name when commenting, and viewing my name on levels. The only place it shows my updated name is when you are actually on my profile. Is there a way to get it to display my new name and not my old name?


texts: Fallout 4 Settlement loosing its resources

texts:
Just got back to one of my settlements (Starlight Drive-In) where at first everything is normal

Water is at 220
Food is at 108
Power is at 250
Defense is at 447

After about 1 minute in the settlement, all the ratings go down. Both my fusion generators just destroyed themselves in front of me. Then, half of my food supply goes with the mutfruit plants destroyed out of nowhere and my water purifiers get destroyed.

No there was no early warning notification saying "defend starlight drive in" or "starlight drive in is under attack", and no enemies appeared.

I'm wondering if someone could tell me why my settlement decides to randomly destroy itself without an attack even when I'm in said settlement when it happens.


texts: What are the extra things I can do to earn Sega Miles?

texts: Why make cheese if milk is already food?

texts:
In Dwarf Fortress, milk is already a food item, and if I am not mistaken, you get one cheese for every one milk.  So would the only benefit of cheese be that it is just one more ingredient for making meals?  Do dwarves, even without a preference for cheese, generally like cheese better or get more out of it?

Are there any other advantages? (besides cheese loving dwarfs making engravings of cheese)


texts: Are there any benefits to having multiple power armor frames?

texts: I'm rather early in Fallout 4, but I am far enough to have received my first power armor frame.  I have affixed some equipment pieces to it and used it, but I also stumbled across an additional frame while wandering around.  Can I do anything with it?  It seems like I'd only ever need one frame.  I don't believe that I can scrap it, and I haven't found any human companions, so I can't test if I can give them power armor.  Is there any benefit beyond it looking nice outside of my garage?


texts: When using graphics mods such as OptiFine, do I need to patch server or only client?

texts:
I found a mod for Minecraft that adds a lot of adjustments and optimizations to the graphics handling, OptiFine.

However, I'm a bit unclear whether I need to patch the server in addition to the client.

Is there a common "knowledge" to this I'm lacking? Such as "yes, you will always have to patch the server"?

If not, does anyone know specifically for this mod, OptiFine, if I need to patch the server as well?

And... if I need to patch the server, does it do anything permanent to my world, such that if I later on decide to remove it, I can still play on the same world without problems?


texts: Can't find blood echoes after dying and signing off

texts: I had 50,000 blood echoes and died.  I had other matters to attend to so I decided that I would just sign out and come back later to retrieve them.  I go back to the scene of the crime and there was no blood stain... nothing... I killed all enemies in the area, hoping one of them stole them... no luck.  I did not die a second time so there is no way I lost them that way.  Any idea how I can retrieve my lost blood echoes?


texts: I couldn't find the name of this city. Can anyone help?


texts: Is the Slayer achievement shared when in a team?

texts:
The game tracks your kills of specific species for the Slayer Achievement, but is this specific to your character?

Do kills made whilst in a team by any team member count towards this achievement? Would just getting a hit on a mob which is then killed by others still count?

I understand this might look like two questions, but it's really an either/or style of question :)


texts: Is there a way to enable the cloud storage option for Skyrim saves? Other games ask me where I want my save file.


texts: What is the best way to fix the Fort Greenwall Bug in the Civil War?

texts:
I have been tasked with meeting the soldiers and taking over Fort Greenwall. To my surprise, my imperial soldier allies were not at the gathering spot. Furthermore, no stormcloaks were inside the fort either.

As such, I cannot complete the objective "Kill enemies - 100% left", as there are no enemies to kill (except maybe one horse).

I've attempted to wait for 10 in game days, but that did not work.

I have found 3 methods to "fix" this problem.

The first is to go to Riften and defeat the Jarl. A source tells me this might break the next quest.

The second is to use the  console command

setcommand CWFortSiegeFort 9000

which will complete the Fort Greenwall quest.

The third is to use the console command

resetquest CWFortSiegeFort

to reset the fort quest and hopefully make it work again.

I would like to know which, (maybe not among these), is the best solution for fixing this bug?

texts:
I have made an error in my base, meaning that I have a single side of wooden wall piece with the soft side facing out.  What are my options for fixing this?

I can demolish it slowly with an axe and re place it the start way - or if I upgrade it to stone would the rotate piece option be enabled for a bit again on the hammer?  I don't want to run the risk of upgrading it to stone without being able to rotate it as that would be a real pain to demolish!


texts: I just bought a chicken from Marnie and to my surprise when I checked my coop it was blue! Is something wrong with it?


texts: Why is it, when I decide to land a council member in order to boost their opinion, do I end up losing them? If I give, say, my spymaster a minor barony that I own, they are still my direct vassal, but I end up losing them, which defeats the whole point of landing them in the first place. I can appoint, say, a mayor as spymaster, so why can't I make my spymaster a mayor? What exactly are the rules here?


texts: Is there any benefit to Listen Carefully in the Dream World minigame Pokémon Seek?

texts:
In Pokémon Seek, the mini-game in the Pokémon Dream World, you can Listen Carefully to see if the Pokémon is present, but the timer ticks down while you listen. However, if you click on the bush right away and it's the wrong Pokémon, you don't lose any time.

Is there any advantage to using Listen Carefully instead of just clicking the bush?


texts: Is there an enchantment / effect /whatever to counter the sticky effect?

texts:
Some mobs from mods, for example Witchery's Nightmare, and InfernalMobs with the Sticky modifier, make you drop your weapon (the nightmare even makes you drop armor, I think).

I know you can counteract the Nightmare with a Charm of Fanciful Thoughts, but my question is specifically targeted at InfernalMobs: Is there a way to counter the sticky modifier? Bonus if the answer also applies to other mods with a similar effect.


texts:
Primeval Force gives 5% elemental penetration, and also Forces of Nature has 6% elemental penetration. If I'm already going for Primeval Force, how should I value also taking FoN if its nearby - is it better to stack penetration, or just a little bit goes a long way and adding more will give diminishing returns?

Does the value of getting FoN change if other cluster nodes are also considered (FoN cluster gives less bonus than PF).

texts: Why is my archery skill lowered in the skills view?

texts:
I have 30 archery after I trained it a bit. I chose the Eagle Eye perk which required 30 archery. However, the skill is in bright red and only shows 20. I assume I have a debuff of some kind, but going to Magic->Active Effects shows nothing that would cause that.

Any ideas?

It's reverted back to 30+, but I still don't know what happened.

texts: Skyrim mannequin duplication fix not working?

texts:
I have the mannequin duplication glitch on 4 of my mannequins at my manor and have been trying to fix it for days. I’ve been trying to follow these steps I found other people use but it doesn’t work for me? Every time I leave my house the loading screen is only black with fog. I’m not sure how to get a loading screen that has pictures and I am desperate.

  1) Put 2 of each item that you have been duping into the mannequin's inventory, nothing else. Also, make sure you don't have any more than 4 of each in your own inventory.

  2) Leave and re-enter, making sure that when you leave the house, the loading screen shows an image instead of just a black, smoky screen. This ensures that the house (im)properly reloads.

  3) Activate the mannequin, and remove one of each item from it's inventory. Without exiting the menu, go to your items and put each one back. WARNING: If you have 6 or more items in your own inventory at this time, it will ask you how many you want to place, and this will cause failure. This is why you can't have more than 4 to begin with.

  4) Leave and re-enter, again, making sure that the loading screen shows an image when you leave. NOTE: This is why I like the Riften house, as it's easy to remember which door you went through last, and you can just use the other one.

  5) Activate the mannequin, and remove all the items from it's inventory, leaving it naked.

  6) Leave and re-enter one last time. Again, be sure it reloads the right way. When you go to your mannequin it should still be naked, and will have stopped duping items.


texts: How to make pistons push back minecart tracks?

texts:
I'm trying to make a door to my undergound house. The minecart passes over a pressure plate and it starts some pistons, which then open a hidden door in the wall. But my problem is, while the sticky piston pulls the stone bricks normally, the minecart tracks stay. So, my track has a hole in it everytime I close the door. I can't post pictures, because I'm a new user, sorry.

Is there a way to make the track come back with the blocks?

No big deal, I knew my location . I could easily get back with enough time before it all despawned. I went back to retrieve my items and only a select few were still there.. I dug around thinking maybe the rest glitched into other areas nearby. Nothing. So I guess my question is, can gravel destroy items?? The only things I got back were some random armor peices I collected,  some sticks and a map. I lost everything else and it was a full inventory. There was no lava nearby or anything.. so my only guess is the gravel but I've never heard of it crushing items.. and if it does, why didnt it destroy everything? I had to mine into the gravel to retrieve what I did get back. so technically,  I should've lost all of it if that were the case.


texts: How can I get games to stop pausing automatically when the controller turns off?

texts:
I'm playing through Fable III as a good guy, so I need to amass a ton of cash. I own everything there is to own in Albion - now it's time to wait for those income payments to roll in. When my Xbox controller turns off after a period of inactivity, the game pauses and income stops coming in until I touch it again. This is not ideal.

Can I either

Get the game or the Xbox to stop pausing when the controller goes to sleep; or
Get the controller to stop going to sleep after a period of inactivity?


texts:
In Let's Go, AVs (Awakening Value) have replaced EVs (Effort Value). In previous games, there was a cap on the total number of EVs you could acquire across all stats which was distinctly less than the total of each EV stat cap. EVs capped out at 255 per stat, IIRC, whereas the total number of EVs you could acquire was 510. Clearly, 510 wasn't enough to max EVs in every stat.

Therefore, there was a min-maxing meta where you'd typically focus all of your available EVs on two different stats. Does this same mechanic apply to AVs?

texts: What are the max ores per hour using branch mining in Minecraft that you can mine?

texts:
I'm aware of the other questions concerning efficient mining in minecraft, but they don't tackle the maximum ores per hour that you can mine using a diamond pick and an iron pick.

So accounting for use of iron or diamond tools and the wear on the tools, what is the MAX end result per hour of each ore that you can achieve? I say max assuming that you spend 100% of your time breaking blocks with no running back and forth to bank chests. I'm interested in diamond, redstone, lapis, coal, gold, and iron, though the cobble you get back would be a nice bonus.

edit

After some confusion over what I meant I think it's important to clarify what I'm looking for.

There is the ore chart on the minecraft wiki that shows a roughly stable distribution of ore deposits between levels 12 and 16 (six blocks inclusive) on the game map. That's a popular area to mine as you're above most lava pools but still in the max average distribution range for diamonds.

Assuming you use the most efficient mining strategy for those six block levels to mine all ore blocks you see while mining, assuming a smooth average distribution of the ore, and assuming that there's no dirt or gravel and only stone where those blocks would appear, what will be the end result of ore "profit" after tool use for both diamond tools and iron tools after one hour of mining, assuming you're mining 100% of the time? If you prefer smoother numbers then 10 or even 100 hours is fine.

I don't think it's important to account for the slightly longer mining times of ores over regular stone as other inefficiencies, like walking to a chest to dump your ore, will hugely outweigh the slight difference in mining speed in practical use.


texts: What are the rules for Pkunk ship regeneration/resurrection?

texts: Do I get a refund for parts that land on rails?

texts:
In the career mode, we have to take care about cash now. It means we need to reclaim as much as feasible.

I fly high, it's easy. But it also means that when I jettison unneeded parts, they soon get far away that they gets put "on rails". Too deep in atmosphere, and they are gone. Do I still get refund for them, if they have proper parachute mounted? Or are the money lost for good and I shouldn't bother putting parachutes and deorbit engines at all when I'm too high for it to matter?

Every time I and my friends have played, we all have all the perks unlocked for every character for some reason, but none of us ever level up.  We're all stuck at level 1.

I'm guessing it's because we have five players instead of four?  Is it possible to only play with friends but still level up?


texts: I can't modify a shulker box's items correctly

texts:
So I ran into a possible bug with Minecraft 1.16.4.  I used the data command to modify the items of a shulker box to whatever helmet I'm wearing.  The command is the following.
data modify block 0 0 0 Items[0] set from entity @s Inventory[{Slot:103b}]

I am running the command manually.  It says the data is already the same.  My syntax is correct, but it just doesn't work.  The shulker box doesn't have the Items tag until I put an item in the container.  If I put an item in the shulker box and run the command, it just starts removing items out one by one and it doesn't give me an error.  I have in the past had a problem with the world I was using so I created a fresh world and it didn't solve anything.  Any help?  Is anyone else having the same problem?  Any workarounds?  Please ask questions.


texts: What are some tips for a PVE/PVP Gunslinger build in Aura Kingdom?

texts:
I was wondering how I should allocate my offensive (damage, critical hit, accuracy) and defensive (HP, defense, evasion) stats for my Gunslinger. Currently, I'm focusing primarily on building critical hit for offense but, I'm not too sure what defensive stats I should focus on. I'm leaning towards pumping up HP/Defense but, looking through the official forums, I'm not too sure about the viability of it during late to endgame.

Moreover, I was wondering what would be a viable secondary class. I'm currently interested in Wizards, Sorcerers, and Grenadiers, and would like to know the pros and cons of taking one as my subclass.

Thanks again folks!

texts: How can I run GOG's Empire Earth on my Windows 7 x64 system?

texts:
I recently purchased Empire Earth Gold Edition from GOG.com.  Unfortunately, I've yet to be able to actually play it.

System Specs:

Make/Model - HP EliteBook 8530p
OS - Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1
CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 @ 2.3 GHz
RAM - 4 GB
Video - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650
Video Driver Version - 8.911.4.1000

Problem:

When running the shortcut, I see the Empire Earth splash screen and then it switches to a full-screen black window with a "spinning circle" cursor for a few seconds.  After this, the window minimizes.  In the background, I can hear the game's intro and title screen running, but I can't restore the game window no matter what I do.

Troubleshooting:

Updated video drivers from HP's website.
Installed June 2010 edition of DirectX, as suggested by GOG.com.
Attempted Compatibility Mode settings:

Windows 2000
Disable visual themes
Disable desktop composition
Run as Administrator

Closed background programs:

Firefox
Thunderbird
Pandora
TrueCrypt
Trillian
Some others

Run in Virtual Machine

VirtualBox 4.1.8
Guest Additions installed
Single processor
2 GB RAM
128 MB Video RAM
Windows XP Pro 32-bit SP3
June 2010 edition of DirectX installed
Game crashes immediately after splash screen

I'd much rather be able to run the software natively in the host OS, but I'll settle for getting it to work in the VM if it can be done.  Is there anything else I should try?  I did e-mail GOG.com support, but was wondering if anyone here might have an answer before they can get back to me.


texts: Can you tell what enemies your soldiers would be able to see/fire on before moving?

texts:
When moving, XCOM provides a helpful blue line indicating what path your soldier will take.  This is extremely helpful to see BEFORE you move, in situations like:

When you're trying to sneak up on an enemy, but your soldier is going to jump through a glass window, you know, just because
When the game is glitching out and can't tell what square your mouse is over and wants to move you down a level

Is there any similar indicator of which enemies will be in view from a potential destination square?  Examples of situations where it is frustrating not to have one:

You move in to shoot at a far-off enemy... and find out you haven't moved in far enough
There's an object sorta in the way between you and the potential target... and you find out that, actually, the game thinks it's completely in the way
The game is glitching out (ESPECIALLY bad when you're climbing on top of the enemy ships) and thinks you can't see an enemy who's two squares away because they're up a tiny slope.

Is there a way to force bots to gather in roboport of my choice? If not, is there simpler way to collect them?

texts: Why does my character skin keep reverting to a naked girl?

texts:
Why does my character's skin keep reverting to a naked girl? I thought someone figured out my password, so i changed it, but after a week or so it got changed back.

I have used mod tools to add aether mod only as well as adding the high def painterly texture pack.

Is there anyway to stop it reverting?

The most recent time happened within the last week.

I've fixed it before without changing my password and it just gets reset to the naked girl skin after i've set it to the default.  Though the newest skin is still of the girl, but at least she's clothed now.

I don't think it is a key logger cause I have a new install of windows in the past month and i've had this problem for more than 6 months.

The problem is that I'm always in first person mode so i hardly even notice.

Also I play on a server and no-one has bothered to mention to me that I look like a girl, so I wonder if it is client side.

texts: Am I going to run into problems with USB Fan Cooling for my PS3?

texts:
My PS3 is one of the original models with the ~60g Harddrive and PS2 Emulation. Since I live in Australia, it gets to 45+ degrees Celsius  (113 Fahrenheit), and when it gets excessively hot, so does my PS3.

Lately, I've been feeling around under the right side where the disk is inserted and the fan blows out from, and it's been getting fairly hot.

I recently brought a bunch of USB Fans, and with a USB Hub, plugged them all up. Two point to the problem zone, while two attempt to circulate the air in the cupboard, as some of the heat remains inside. The two that I have set up aiming at the PS3 are roughly like this

________________
                |  --->
--------        |  --->
      [         |] --->  Hot Air
      [         |] --->
  ____[_________|] --->
  |        __              \  /
  |       |\              \  /
  |         \            \  /       <---USB Fans (They'd be lined up)
  |___       \          \  / \---|
      \       Hot Area \  /   \  |
______|                  /     \ |
_________________________________|

In case if my image doesn't correctly show it, this is the kind of fan I bought

  Brand new in box  - dimension 143L 85W 141H mm
  USB powered - ideal for desktop,laptop cooling or personal use
  USB cable - about 1.2 meter
  purely metal made structure for stability including
  Aluminum made blade.
  rotary fan head
  rubber base support to reduce noise
  switch on/off on the back
  quite operation but very powerful 2.5w
  3 month replacement warranty
  7days full refund guaranteed if you are unhappy with quality !

Source - eBay

Now I am wondering, since the vent is blowing out hot air and the area the fans are aimed at also include the possibility that air will be blown back into the vent, I am wondering what, if any, potential problems I could run into (ie. blowing dust in, stopping hot air being blow out)

NOTE: I did try them out and the hot area kept cool; however, I don't know what's going on inside and am unsure if the PS3's internal fan is stronger (it sure is louder though)

Am I in need of a geography lesson, or is Whiterun just not available at this point in the game?  If the latter, will it become available again later?

I hesitate to visit either of the first two locations above, because I don't want to chance triggering a possible storyline development that I might not want to deal with just yet.


texts: How can I keep a sysadmin on a short path from finding me?

texts:
I have a mission that requires me to copy 90 Gqs of data from a server on a LAN.  The server is behind a dial-up poxy, and only by a few hops.

The shortest path to the server goes:

MODEM -> LOCK -> MAIN SERVER

The path I have to follow (and I've seen the sysadmin track) is:

MODEM -> HUB -> AUTHENTICATION SERVER -> LOCK -> MAIN SERVER

Even with the network's Monitor and Proxy bypassed, the sysadmin still jumps on the network the minute I even touch the main server.  I don't even have to start cracking the password or spoofing his voice authorization - just connecting to the main server is enough to trigger this.

With the short path, and the amount of work still ahead of me, there's not enough time for me to do what I need to get done before the sysadmin reaches me.

Is there some way around this that I'm not realizing?  This is a storyline mission, so I imagine there has to be - unless the random LAN generator just totally screws the player now and then.

Am I out of luck here, or should I be doing something particular to overcome this?

Spore and Spine Crawlers help, but due to their size, they are out DPS'd by the Dominion forces, (especially once their mech starts rolling in).

Kerrigan is quite effective at halting their advance, but she is but one woman, and despite her constant utterances to the contrary, she is not a "one-woman army".

Of course in case of the latter i'd like to have normal versions appear instead so i can butcher them like i used to do.

I really get invested by them with almost constant amounts of 2 types roaming my map only to reappear minutes after i killed them.

texts: Extreme Block Lag on Minecraft Feed the Beast

texts:
I have a pretty good gaming computer and I am having trouble playing Feed the Beast. This problem has happened pretty recently. The change wasn't sudden but it deteriorated very quickly.

I am on a single player world and there is block lag. I cannot pick up items on the ground, I have trouble breaking blocks, and when I right-click on machines it takes 2-3 seconds before I see the interface.  Machines take way longer than they are supposed to.

My FPS is stable at 120 and the game is smooth, but sometimes I teleport back to where I was 5 seconds ago. The world I play on is pretty small. None of these problems affect me on regular Minecraft or on other FTB worlds I have created. I am currently running the mindcrack pack. I have tried installing Optifine but it doesn't help. I don't have any windows or programs open when I play.

I have 64 bit Java and am using 4 out of 8GB RAM to run the game. I have tried reinstalling the game and think that the problem is with the actual world.

texts: What is this large room with an assortment of monsters, a swarm of bees, and some items?

texts:
So, I fell down a trapdoor and then:

(click image to enlarge)

...yeah, I've kind of just been staring at my screen and ;-identifying things for a few minutes.

Some notable things I've found:

a HUGE swarm of killer bees
a peaceful gremlin (the green thing in the center) - I've never seen this before
random scrolls, potions, wands, and other items
seemingly arbitrary monsters like a jackal and a giant spider

What is this room? It's on Dlvl 11, if that helps, and I'm playing vanilla Nethack. I didn't get any message when I fell into it. I've checked the wiki page for special rooms, and there's a few suspects:

Treasure Zoo: there's no treasure, though
Beehive: "Roughly 1/3 of the squares will contain royal jelly" and "All residents are asleep when the room is generated." None of these are true.
Throne Room: none of these monsters are mentioned as throne room monsters (and no throne)

What is this madness? What do I do? Try to kill stuff or grab items? Make a run for the door? I would not like to die, so it would really be helpful if I knew what this was.

texts:
Ok, so this is a question brought to you by the wayback machine.

There used to be a game on the Atari something-or-other that was called "NightHunter". In it, you played Dracula as he wandered around and kicked some ass murdering and looting through some town.

You could turn into a giant bear-monster (i think it was a very liberal interpretation of the "werewolf" concept) and a little bat.

Anyway, I played this game years ago - about 23? 24? And I recall enjoying it, but I also never finished the game. I think you had to get medallions for some reason? I don't think the reason involved a fashion show.

As it happens I'm tearing my hair out over some stupid computer programming nonsense and thought I'd kill some time checking if anyone remembers the game, knows what happened in the end or maybe, just maybe, knows if there is some newer-version of it out and about?

texts: How can I start the Blood on the Ice quest?

texts:
I am currently part of the Stormcloaks and just finished Rescue from Fort Neugard. The Jarl wants to make me a thane and is telling me to buy a house, but his steward is telling me the house is unavailable due to some unpleasantness. I have already completed the 5 quests to help people of Eastmarch.

From what I can see online, I need to begin the Blood on the Ice quest. It is supposed to begin by walking in the windhelm graveyard at night, however every time I go there I don't see anyone.

Someone online said it's possible to miss the scene that triggers the quest if you go into Windhelm and leave without triggering it, but I am hoping this isn't the case. I am in Windhelm a lot because the Enchanting table, Blacksmith, and Fence are all in one location, so find it very convenient. The lady who is supposed to be murdered in the Graveyard (Susanna) is still alive in Candlehearth Hall, so I think I'm not bugged.

The wiki suggests that you have to "The quest will initiate after you entered Windhelm four times from another hold", however I have entered and left quite a few times during the course of my game and know I've been here way over 4 times.

I tried pickpocketing the key, however I don't automatically get the quest on entering the house, and there are a bunch of "Investigate InvestigationTarget" spots in the house. Also, I was reading the Butcher's journal and he was saying he almost caught Susanna when she left Candlehearth, however I have never seen her leave Candlehearth. Perhaps my glitch is she never leaves? I'll have to head to Windhelm on another character and check it out.

Also, I saw something online saying this quest won't trigger if you go past 245 in-game days. Would someone be able to confirm this for me? (Have the XBox version, so waiting 245 days is annoying)

Can someone tell me the exact steps to begin this quest?


texts: After completing a blacklist race is there a way to guarantee a pink slip reward from the opposing driver?

texts:
After defeating Need For Speed: Most Wanted (2005)'s difficult Blacklist drivers you are given the option to pick two of three available Reward Markers. These rewards include cash bonuses, get-out-of-jail cards, extra impound strikes, reclamation of impounded vehicles, and best of all: the title to your opponent's vehicle, in the form of a "pink slip".

While a 2/3 chance of selecting the pink slip reward marker is pretty fair, how could I guarantee that I am awarded my opponents unique vehicle every time?

I found this exploit which states the reward markers are not randomized and, for instance, I could choose the first marker to earn Sonny's car (Rival 15), and choose the third reward marker to earn the Baron's car (Rival 10). However, the wikia article says the rewards are randomized and I don't want to waste my only opportunity on something I can't confirm. In addition to the IGN article referencing the PlayStation 2 version of the game while I play on the Xbox 360 version.

Is there any way to "reroll" reward markers if I select the wrong one? This question can encompass exploits, save scumming, or any other means of guaranteeing I get these unique and highly modified vehicles, ideally without having to redo the difficult race against the Blacklist rival.


texts: Why can't I use a Robot Workbench at Boston Airport Ruins?

texts:
Last weekend, after running through the Automatron DLC, I discovered the Boston Airport Ruins location in Fallout 4 and built a Robot Workbench there.

However, after building it (and leaving Workshop Mode), I found that of the two options, Craft (A button on Xbox) and Transfer (X button), only Transfer was available.

Why is that?

Is it related to the fact that you cannot build a Settlement Beacon radio tower at this location?


texts: What exactly does "Stick Sensitivity" do in Smash Ultimate custom controls?

texts:
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch allows players to customize their controls.

Under "Other Settings" there is an option for Stick Sensitivity:

  Stick Sensitivity: Low | Normal | High

  Change how much speed is needed to perform a stick flick.

What exactly does this Stick Sensitivity setting control? What is a "stick flick"?

What are practical examples of in-game differences when using the Low/Normal/High settings?

How does sensitivity affect the timing or position of the stick when performing different actions?

texts:
In the Skyrim Console, how can I reference an object that is not in the cell that I currently am in?

For example, if I am in BronzeWaterCave and type:

"000c76c9".additem  000669A5 5

It will add 5 leeks (000669A5) to the Dwemer chest (000c76c9) in the cave.
However, if I am outside of BronzeWaterCave the same commands will result in:

Syntax error.  Invalid reference '000c76c9' (only object references and reference variables are allowed in this context).

This is a purely academic inquiry; I am not trying to accomplish anything.

I just noticed that if I type 000EEC5F".additem 000669A5 5, the corpse of Sinderion (RefID 000EEC5F) in Blackreach would gain 5 leeks, no matter where I was located in the game. He clearly didn't exist in my cell. I have many different restarts of Sykrim with totally different characters, but in all the games, the RefID for the Dwemer chest in BronzeWaterCave is always 000c76c9. I assumed it got assigned that when the Bethesda developer plopped it in the cave during game construction. I assumed its RefID was unique within the game, but maybe that RefID is only unique within a cell. Sinderion's is clearly unique within the game.

I was just wondering if you could uniquely reference a PRID from another cell by somehow preferencing it, for example (and I can assure you this doesn't work):
prid BronzeWaterCave.000c76c9.


texts: Why is Katarina, a snowball that when played around can carry games considered completely unviable in the LCS?

texts: Katarina has a poor laning phase but doesn't really fall off late, when played around her in solo queue at all ELOs she can carry games for teams very easily. She can roam bot lane and very easily pick up kills and during the later stages of the game in team fights, if your team focus's out the enemies with CC and keeps them CC'd or away from Katarina she can deal huge amounts of damage very quickly. It seems like in an environment like the LCS teams would have the synergy necessary to keep champions that can shutdown Katarina in fights off of her, so why is it that she is considered a poor pick and see's very little play? Why don't teams try building a CC heavy composition around her similar to what was done with Kog Maw a lot recently?

Edit 2: Broke yet again(working and breaking)


texts:
Sounds like, based on this question it was a matter on contention in Tiny Tower.

If it works the same in Tiny Death Star it would seem the floors total skill acts as a percentage discount on all stocking times while a dream job could be thought of as a "50% discount" on one item being stocked.

So, 1 skill point is worth 1% and a dream job is worth ~%17 which suggests that a dream job is more important than any skill considerations.


texts: Is there a backstab animation in skyrim?

texts:
I am just wondering if in Skyrim there is a backstab animation, when using a small blade and sneaking behind an opponent, much like the regular slo mo animations that occur when getting a critical hit kill?

texts: Can you remove the "1.6.2 is Available" nag message in older versions of Minecraft?

texts:
Recently I upgraded to the newest version of Minecraft only to find out that it's not compatible with a few of my favorite mods that I use. So I got my backup 1.5.2 jar, and used a custom launcher (Magic Launcher), and everything works fine.

The only issue is that when I go to the screen there is a nagging message saying that 1.6.2 is available for download. Can I get rid of it somehow or what?


texts: How is damage of on-hit abilities (Mystic Shot, Parrrley, etc.) expressed?

texts:
After reading What can Pantheon's shield block?, I found out that on-hit effects are still applied (such as Teemo's Toxic Shot) while the basic attack is blocked. This implies that the damage for such abilities is split into two parts: the damage of the basic attack itself and the damage from any on-hit effects. Pantheon's passive blocks the first part while the second part is unaffected.

As Teemo's on-hit effect is physical/magic damage split (physical for his basic attack and magic for his DoT), the concept is easy to picture. But, how does this apply to Gangplank's and Ezreal's Qs (Parrrley and Mystic Shot, respectively). Each of these abilities tack on additional physical damage, but is this considered an on-hit effect or simply a stronger basic attack? Additionally, how does this apply to items that add physical damage on-hit, such as Blade of the Ruined King?


texts: Who deals more damage with minigun ‒ Wolfe or Wildcat?

texts:
In characters stats I can see that Wildcat's Damage Bonus is 4/5, while Wolfe's is only 2/5. Piercing bullets doesn't have much difference.
However, I most often see people choosing Wolfe and minigun even though his advantage is only for Autogun Damage.

My question is... who of them actually deals more damage with minigun?


texts:
Note: This question deals with just the base game. If you're playing with the Zubmariner expansion, see the following
  question instead:

  What's the fastest way to gain Echoes in Sunless
  Sea with
  Zubmariner?

My first Sunless Sea character spent most of his time scraping money together from port reports to buy supplies, so that he could go visit the same ports again to replenish his supplies, and he pretty much never got traction on getting enough money to buy weapons or other ship upgrades.

I tried Googling for some advice on how to make money, but it seems like all the hits I'm getting go back to earlier versions of the game and are no longer applicable. For instance:

A popular recommendation is to run Tomb-Colonists to Venderbight (other than the first one), but I think this is old advice because there is no option to buy them in London.
Another popular recommendation is to hunt pirate ships north of London. However, I usually only run into about one of them, two if I'm lucky, and the hull damage I incur, plus fuel and supplies to get out there in the first place, doesn't make it worth what I typically get as a reward.
Another recommendation involves buying Mushroom Wine and selling it in Venderbight. That nets +2 echoes per unit for me. That doesn't cover the fuel and supplies for the journey, plus there's nothing to pick up in Venderbight that seems worth bringing back to London.

Maybe part of these have to do with not having enough money to fill my hold to make trade routes worth it. When I can only afford 5 units of something, the profit margin doesn't seem high enough to cover fuel and supplies. Maybe it's more profitable later when I can take a lot of cargo in one trip. But how do I get to that point?

texts: Fable III: How do you know if a rental property's decor is at it's best?

texts:
Is there any way to tell if improvements can be made to a rental property's decor, other than the amount of rent you collect, especially when you allow Jasper to choose the decor for you based on your current inventory? Is there some blip on the UI in map mode or on the sign that I'm missing?

I believe Jasper says something like, "I can't imagine any way that the decor could be improved for this property" when he finishes a house well. Sometimes he says nothing though, so how do I really know what he did without having to inspect the property visually before and after? After all, the point is that he does it for you, if I'm going to have to look anyway...I might as well do it myself!

When Jasper replaces stuff, you can sell the stuff he replaced right, it's swapped with the newer items in your inventory? (Though the new inventory screens are easy...it seems I can only see my inventory in the pawn shops...ugh...am I wrong here?)

Lastly, can Jasper be trusted when you ask him to redecorate a property for a second time? For example, you go buy out the furniture store again with different items and then go to a property for a second go. Will Jasper replace the same items, or is he smart enough to keep from doing that?

Maybe I should zig-zag up, bouncing back from the platform where SMB is standing (uncomfortably) on?

Also, keep in mind, I'm not on Java edition, I'm on Nintendo Switch (Bedrock Edition).

texts:
I started conquering Otomo during turn 50+something and finished at during turn 78.
Conquering was not difficult but ruling is, extremely.

The first province I captured from them was Nagato.
After more than 10 turns, there is still no sign of improvement in the happiness of the population there. As a result, I had to exempt it from and earned nothing from them.
Similar problem occurs to the other provinces.
The main reason seems to be Christianity (my clan's religion is Buddhism of course).
To make the matter worse, I had to maintain sizable armies in those provinces besides exempting them from tax.
All in all, I was losing a lot of money from those Otomo provinces.

What did I do wrong e.g. attacking them too late?

texts: Why would I be getting TPS lag spikes every 30 seconds on a single player local client world?

texts:
I am using the AtLauncher with a modded Thaumcraft based world and keep getting a lag spike every 30 seconds that basically stops the world and it rushes to catch up. Turing on the Lagometer it shows it as TICK lag which I don't get since I am playing local on my machine not on a server.

Does anyone know a setting that might cause this?

I am not running Thaumcraft machines constantly (they are too noisy) but I do have a fair number of golems. That is not my first thought for an cause because the golems are pretty random and the spike is fairly constant at 30 seconds. Event if I pull up the options menu and all mobs stop and time stands still the Lagometer still runs in the back ground and I still see the spikes.

texts: When renting a server can I set the minimum players to 4 for all game modes?

texts:
When playing on the Xbox 360, I noticed that most of the online game modes have no active servers.  I have tried joining specific game modes with friends but we have found that the servers don't start until at least 8 people join (you are stuck in a warm-up round until enough join).

There is a rent-a-server option that allows us to create our own server, and we can control certain settings.  One is to reduce the minimum players, which I believe is 4.  This would be enough for us to get games going on game modes without an active community.  Between the 5 of us we can at least start a game before others join.

Before one of us pays anything to rent a server, does anyone know if we can set ALL game modes to a minimum of 4 players, on ranked games.  We want to get games going and then hopefully draw in other players.  We are looking at such games modes as gun master and scavenger game modes (as well as all the others).  I don't know if different game modes have different requirements.

Just a note, team deathmatch, conquest and rush are still heavily populated.

texts:
Consider the following picture:

We have two distant systems, Marshak and Regis, connected by a highway of gates. Just off the highway, there are a bunch of planets - Azar, Crysta, Lambda. Obviously, the fastest way to reach one of those unconnected planets is to fly to the closest gate and bounce off of it. However, attempting to route a fleet to one of the unconnected planets has the ships automatically using STL, completely ignoring the gates.

I also attempted to send a fleet from Marshak to Regis, then when it was close to Crysta, changed the mission to survey Crysta. The result: the fleet attempted to return all the way to Marshak and STL to Crysta, instead of just...flying for one turn to the planet it was already almost on top of!

Is there a way to route ships to use the faster approach, namely flying partway through the highway and leaving it when close to the target?

It's tough to tell from comments alone what the easiest way to farm all pieces for this transmog set are.

Would anyone be able to offer a solution for the fastest way to obtain them all?

texts: Is there a way to keep potion effects when you die?

texts:
Is there a way for a specific player to keep the potion effect when he dies?
For example, my friend and i are playing, with both a different potion effect.
But when i die, i have to get that potion effect back, and my friend not.

A fast clock that constantly checks if a player is dead, and if so gives that player the potion effect, wouldn't work because then my friend would also get the same potion effect as I do.

texts: Why do enemies in Sokoban spawn so close / are so strong?

texts:
I was recently playing a game of nethack and I was doing really good, and decided to go up to sokoban. I was walking around when suddenly some Hill Orcs spawned and I was able to take them out, and they didn't seem to spawn that close, but soon afterwards, an ant that seemingly came out of nowhere killed me in one hit with a poisoned bite. The ant seemed to just appear right next to me, but it probably just moved diagonally from behind a boulder that was next to me. Even if that's the case, it still spawned pretty close to me. I've also had other instances where somewhat strong/exotic monsters spawned on sokoban. So i was wondering two things:

1) Why do the enemies spawn so close in sokoban?

2) Why do different/stronger enemies spawn on sokoban? Since I'm going upwards and the Dungeon Level is decreasing, shouldn't the monsters spawning be weaker?


texts: How do I leave the Product Storage area?

texts:
How do I shut down the lockdown so I can leave the Product Storage area?

Presumably, I need to simulate a leak in the Product Storage room, but the game isn't letting me use the Neural Drill on anything in the room.

My current inventory is: High Speed Neural Drill, Full Hypodermic Syringe (filled with blood), Shard of Glass, and Wet Dirty Towel.

I've also already turned the Pressure Valve in the maintenance area.


texts:
It's been a while since I've bought games from the PSN store. In a lot of games' descriptions, I've seen a section that says "2-n Network players", where n is some larger number.

Does this indicate that I am able to share my games with friends?

If yes, does this mean that my friends can play the entire game? By that I mean, would he/she be able to play the story mode of the game? Could they even play the game online in online rooms?

Or is this just indicating that I can play together with friends?


texts:
I used an Incense two days ago and ended up signing out during the Incense. When I signed back in the time remaining on the incense was 59:59 and started counting down. I had the purple smoke around me. I have not had time to check to see if it is actually working but it doesn't seem to be.

When the timer reaches 00:00 it goes back to 59:59 and recommences instantly. I have tried removing all incenses in my inventory (3) but that didn't work. I have signed out and back in again, still nothing. I am using a Samsung Galaxy. Anyone know how to fix this?


texts: Can I avoid anything with Akuma's Ashura Senku (teleport)?

texts:
For instance, is it possible to pass through any other character's super or ultra ?  Or through Zangief's Banishing Flat (green hand), or a Shoryuken ?

In this case, doesn't it make Akuma virtually invincible to any attacks ?

Also I have the feeling that the Ashura Senku performed at the beginning of Raging Demon doesn't work the same way.  Once I've been stopped in this move by a simple light punch (quite well timed I suppose).  Any thoughts ?


texts: How can I start a GameCube game without using a Wii Remote?

texts:
Is it possible to just use the Wii as a GameCube without the need for a Wiimote (using only the Wii console and the GameCube controller)?

If not out-of-the-box, what settings should I set, and will I need a Wiimote to set them?


texts:
There are a ton of (mostly) highly rated games in the Apple appstore under the company name 'Chillingo.ltd', but the games are so wildly different from one another, that I can't understand how they could develop the hundreds of them internally.

What's the deal with this?  Is 'Chillingo' just a pseudonym for a group of developers?


texts: What do the different colours of sound mean?

texts:
In Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure, you can collect various sounds as you wander around. They get used for little quests, and for making the Master Instrument.

I have noticed that there are 4 colours of sounds - red, yellow, blue, and green. Does the colour have any significance?


texts: Kerbal space program: science collection

texts:
Scenario: I use a goo experiment and the green bar shows I will get 15 science

If I observe another goo straight after , it also shows I will be getting 15 science.

But when I recover the spacecraft, I don't receive 30 science.

Can someone explain why this occurs and what can be done to avoid an  accidental repetition of a science experiment?

Note: I don't remember this occuring in previous versions ( I may be wrong)


texts: Civilization 6 - Relics - what happen when you run out of Relic slots?

texts:
I'm playing as Poland and I got Kandy as a city right next door. Since I'm suzerain I'm getting Relics for Nature Wonders.

Question is this: when I get a Relic but have no slot for it what happens with the Relic? Goes into storage? Disappears? I can't find definitive answer to this after searching the internet... I know one can have quite a few of them, but most threads concentrate on maximizing Relics. I'm pretty early into game and looking at at least 6-7 relics with scouting I have out there already.

texts: After I updated minecraft to 1.8.4 a lot of my stuff is missing. My tower is gone and in some spots land is over where road was. Even a village is missing half of some of the houses like they are literally half of a house where there used to be a whole house. I don't know what to do. Everything I had was in that tower. Now I have nothing. I don't even want to play anymore because I am so mad


texts: What is the significance of power core colors in Into the Breach?

texts:
There are three different colors of power core in Into The Breach.  Green ones are tied to the pilot, but there are two others: the standard yellow one, and a gray one with a yellow outline.

If the yellow ones are standard found-or-purchased cores, what do the gray ones indicate?
