texts: What are the recommended specs for Minecraft?

texts:
I tried starting up a new world of Minecraft today, and found much to my displeasure that something as simple as breaking a tree, on a single-player world, would run into glitchy, laggy, unplayable problems.

My computer is...rather old.  It has a AMD Athlon II 620 Quad-Core processor, a Nvidia 9100 integrated graphics card, 4 G of Ram, 640 GB hard drive, and it runs Windows 7.  I literally updated java just yesterday, so...what am I missing to make Minecraft run properly?

texts: SSFIVAE: Why do Ryu's standing and jumping EX.Tatsu do different damage in combos?

texts:
Why does Ryu's standing EX.Tatsu -> Ultra 1 (in corner) do more damage then Ryu's jumping EX.Tatsu -> Ultra 1 (in corner)?

Here is what I found:

standing EX.Tatsu -> Ultra 1

EX.Tatsu without Ultra does 160 damage in 5 hits.
whole combo does 458 damage

jumping EX.Tatsu -> Ultra 1

jumping EX.Tatsu without Ulta does 200 damage in 5 hits.
whole combo des 362 damage

Theoretically the jumping Tatsu has more base damage and it should be better then the standing one especially in combos. It cannot depend on damage reduction on hit as both Tatsu hit 5 times.

Ok so this will be the first asked question related to this at all: I crashed recently and lost my hearing, but I have a hearing aid that can connect to the audio with a phonak tvlink that I got. I want to do voice chat with my brother but I can't figure it out... all I can do is hear his voice and actually understand all of it somehow (go modern hearing aids!!).

How can I (if it's even possible) separate a mic from a system that let's me listen to voice chat and possibly the gameplay as well as talking to them across the voice chat system? And/or is there something that connects with bluetooth to both or something...? If you don't understand my awful writing, Google "Phonak TVlink S" and try to figure out how I could do full voice chat with it. The game is Black Ops 2 if that has any relevance.


texts: Storage on the 3DS' SD card is calculated in the 3DS eShop using strange units called 'blocks'. While these may have been an attempt to simplify things for the average user, it also makes it much harder to do things like estimate the download time for a piece of software or how many demos I could fit onto an SD card. So for these purposes I wish to find out, how big exactly is a 'block', in terms of actual bytes?

texts: Problem with RequiredPlayerRange on spawners

texts:
This is on the latest Minecraft version, 1.16.4
I have been trying to figure out how to get it to work with NBTEexplorer. I changed the RequiredPlayerRange to higher then default amount which was 16 now its 40, yet whenever i save it and just restart my game to see if the changes applied it still defaults back to its original range yet still says 40 in the NBTExplorer.
went to ahead and checked on the official wiki of minecraft to find i had to change MaxNearbyEntities aswell though unsure what to so i changed it to the same value, still nothing
update during writing!
found a command that might work?
/data merge block -1537 39 771 {RequiredPlayerRange: 30}

standing above the spawner and counted 1 block off the Y coordinate
^ this gave me a error: that position is not loaded
Though, no idea what that could mean really
Could someone explain why I am getting this?
As well if you know of a different fix for the problem please tell!

But I don't what to do next with those hanging rocks in the barrow! Someone help me!


texts:
The Umgah Drone is probably my worst ship in Star Control melee. I know that in general I'm supposed to zip back close to the enemy ship while constantly shooting - attempting to damage it while passing - but the combination of slow turning speed and extremely fast zipping speed always makes me miss.

Not to mention I generally try to be with my face to the enemy ship - in order to block shots with my cone - and this means I'm not in the correct position to zip past them.

I've tried relying on the movement backward to dodge shots, instead of relying on the cone to destroy them; but that really puts me in a passive position where all I do is defend and not attack.

Does anyone have useful tips for efficiently using the drone?

If memory serves, I thought I remembered reading somewhere that the GTS Pokemon would be filled with all the Pokemon names. But when I'm searching for one that I haven't seen before, for example a Dragonite, I don't see it in the "D" list.

But there is an option you can pick to where you can type a Pokemon name and it will search for it. So can you search for Pokemon using that option that haven't been seen in the Pokedex? Also can you shorten the name to search for any pokemon with what you're looking for? Say I searched for "Drago", would that find Dragonair and Dragonite?

texts: In Football Manager games, does the computer know which the player runs?

texts:
In Football Manager games, a human player manages a Football team against similarly managed teams by the computer.

I would like to know if the "central computer" for game results calculation is aware of which team is managed by the human player, and which team is managed by computer players. Does it give an edge to the player for the game be more fun? I have seen some reports of players winning big competitions starting with a lower league team.

Or maybe the computer players take poor decisions from time to time so a good human player can lift himself above all?

Is the central computer totally neutral in computing the game results?

texts: PS3 controllers won't sync - nothing works, help!

texts:
Never had any issues with my PS3, worked flawlessy for years. And now, out of the blue, I come back from a vacation and my controllers won't sync. First it started by not being able to turn on the PS3 from the controller (with it turned on, I could sync), but now it won't sync at all. Both controllers, nada, zip, silch.

I searched online for various methods:

Reset (did it multiple times)
Reset, plug in, unplug, P button (in various orders)
Safe mode: repair database
Safe mode: repair filesystem

It still works plugged-in to the console, but I'm afraid even this will stop working soon and it will render my PS3 useless.

Please help! Thanks


texts: What do I get for skipping the checkpoint?

texts:
After playing for a while, I figured out that you have a choice to trigger the checkpoint, or jump it (previously I was jumping it every time).  The game tells you that you can skip it "for a greater challenge", and I see that I get some points at the end of the level for doing so.

I've already found that there is a Perfect and Perfection+ outcome for each level, and I've read about "Double Perfections" and "Triple Perfections" in other questions - so I'm curious if there is any other "collectible/challenge" reason to skip the checkpoints.  By the time I've done a few passes through the game I don't want to have to do it all again if there is some special outcome for skipping them.

Pokemon GO isn't working at all for me right now. I'm in one of the following circumstances and can't do anything:

My game is displaying a "Try Again" message
I'm stuck on the Loading Screen
When I sign in I get a message that the servers are experiencing problems.
I see the map but nothing is loaded, and my team color is wrong
The "loading" Pokeball just ends up spinning and I can't catch or interact with things
When I try to catch a Pokemon, the Pokeball just sits on my screen doing nothing
Gym opponents will drop to 1 HP and won't take any more damage or attack
When I open a pokestop, the pokestop image and the name of the pokestop does not load.

What's causing this? Is there a way to fix it?

texts: What's the fastest/easiest way to level up your skills?

texts:
Basically subj.

The skills and what I found so far is:

Stamina: just run, sprint, cycle, swim, whatever. Just move and it will grow(not that fast though)
Shooting: personally I found shooting range to be a really fast way to improve your shooting skills
Strength: fist fighting
Stealth: performing stealth kills
Flying: probably just flying, didn't bother about it yet
Driving: got the most problems here. Playing as a Trevor I can't get past 1.8 or 1.9 bars(which is 36-38%). Drove for hours around and still can't get it any higher
Lung Capacity: staying underwater for as long as possible can very slowly but surely increase your lung capacity

Am I correct with the ones I know? And what would you recommend for the other ones?

texts: Can there be multiple Blue Shells at once?

texts:
I recently heard of a strategy where the player purposefully drops to last place to increase their chances of getting a Blue Shell from an item box and then holding onto it so that when they get to first place, they don't get Blue Shelled. Obviously, this strategy hinges on the existence of a game mechanic that makes sure there's only one Blue Shell at a time amongst all of the players.

Does such a mechanic exist? Does it only apply to Blue Shells?

ActRaiser 2 (SNES, 1993) has a password system for saving one's progress and easy, normal, and hard modes. But PJ, a notable streamer and speedrunner of ActRaiser 2, published a speedrun of the game in an unfamiliar "Difficulty 202", accessed by entering a special password. According to the description of this run of one level, "nearly every enemy in the game kills me upon contact and has too much health to kill in any realistic amount of time".

How does this work within the game? Was this password written deliberately or is it a bug that somehow works perfectly?

texts: Whenever I walk I get random slowdowns as though I'm clipping into the ground or encumbered

texts:
I've been playing Skyrim Special Edition on Steam for a while now and here. Lately I've noticed my move speed slowing way down while walking.
There seem to be two stages to it (three if you count it not happening at all): at first it's hardly noticeable and I walk at maybe 80-90% speed, then, after playing for a seemingly random amount of time (ranging from a few minutes to hours), it drops without warning to like 10% of the regular speed.
Once a stage has been reached it is continuous and can't be reverted to the original speed.

I move at normal speed in the air while jumping. I'm not encumbered and can fast travel, but this is because I greatly increased my carry weight via console command at the start of the game (using player.modav carryweight 9999 to get it to persist), so I've got around 20,000 carry capacity.

I've tried a number of fixes which didn't solve my issue:

Saving and reloading
Saving and quitting and loading
I tried the recommended console command from a steam thread player.setav speedmult 100
I tried testing with tgm and tcl on, both separately and together
I tried the fixes of sprinting and talking to someone, sprinting and sitting in a chair
I've dumped enough stuff in chests and whatnot to be at around 4,000 of 20,000 carry weight, and it still didn't help.
I've also tried emptying my inventory of everything but quest items (0 carry weight) and it still persisted.

I'm at my wit's end trying to figure this out.

texts: Where is the program scheduler on the iPad version?

texts:
I am trying to schedule an alcoholics counseling program to a specific common room on the iOS (ipad) version of Prison Architect.

I have micromanagement unlocked, and I have the program created, but I can't figure out how to assign it to a specific room (I have two common rooms). All the stuff I found on the internet describes a program scheduler on the programs tab somewhere, but I can't find anything like that on the iPad and I'm wondering if the Steam version is different.

It's also a problem for my drug rehab program. I have two infirmaries; one with 4 beds, and one with 10 that I made specifically for the program. But it's using the smaller infirmary and really bottlenecking things. I can't figure out how to get it to use the larger one.

How do I assign rooms to programs?

texts: XBOne controller driver issues. How to use Dolphin and Steam on the same driver

texts:
Recently I discovered that the current Xbox One controller drivers are bunk and you have to use much older drivers in order to get background window control. This is critical when doing link play with VBA-M and Dolphin with more than one player as the window you play in is not the same window receiving controller input.

These drivers fix the problem (first one in the list). However, there is still one critical issue. When you switch to these drivers you can play games on Dolphin and VBA-M, but the controller is no longer recognized by Steam, or any game launched by Steam. It might extend to other platforms too, but I've not tired.

Controllers configured in this manner are recognized and function in Window's controller properties, but not by the Xbox accessories app. You have to uninstall the device and re-install the latest official drivers (sometimes multiple times) before it finally starts working again. This is clearly not optimal.

Is there a way around this issue? Is there a magic driver version that works for both? Even a script that would quickly swap between driver versions that I can throw on my desktop would at least be a solution better than what I have now.

Wondering if anyone else has seen this.  I just got Republic Commando on steam, and when I run it strange things happen.  I get a black screen for a minute or two before the first splash video plays.  That plays very choppy, then it sits forever before getting to the main menu.

The menu works fine, but when I try to start a game the loading bar goes to full and then it just sits there indefinitely.

EDIT: Sorry, meant to include the specs:

Windows Vista
Intel i7 2.67 GHz
6 Gig RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260

Republic Commando is an older game, and only requires a Pentium 3 1GHz or better.  I've played this game on older hardware and it ran fine.  There's no reason it should have performance issues on my current machine.

texts: How do you control both teams in a StarCraft 2 unit tester map?

texts:
I want to try out the unit tester map 818 by doc which I've seen being used in quite a number of tutorials, but the question is I can't seem to control both teams. How do I do that?

I search for it in custom games and if I play solo, it's victorious screen right after it loads, even if I set computer, it just doesn't let me control the other team?


texts: Can I copy Steam game files from a Mac onto a PC?

texts:
I have a very slow Internet connection at home and cannot download large files there. However, I have a Macbook and fast Internet at school. Is it possible to download a game to my Macbook, then transfer the files to my home PC? Are the files different for Macs and PCs?

I did see this post about general Steam file transfer from PC to PC, but it says nothing about Macs. I wasn't sure if the files are the same or not.

Edit: I just found this thread and it sounds like a direct download isn't possible, but maybe saving a few gigs of data by copying asset files would work.


texts: I was just wondering how I could link the start up script (tf.sh) and link it to a the mapcycle.txt file in /steamcmd/tf2/tf/cfg/mapcycle.txt... Or if there is any other way for it to change levels with out me going into the startup script file and changing it to just one map... Thanks.

texts: How does the Void Ray's Prismatic Alignment ability work with upgrades?

texts:
The void ray's new Prismatic Alignment ability increases the damage it does versus armored by 6 when used. However the ability also says "This does not scale with upgrades.". What does that mean exactly?

It would stand to reason that the void ray's normal damage of 6, with the prismatic alignment ability would raise it to 6+6=12 (versus armored), and that if you upgraded one weapon level to 6+1, that prismatic alignment would be (6+1)+6=13. If this is not the case, then the ability would become less effective the later the game went on. Since this is not a percentage increase against armored, what does the ability mean by "does not scale with upgrades"?


texts: How can I display team's dealt damage in competitive mode?

texts:
In the past I was able to display a bar where every team member's delt damage was shown. I could do this by pressing TAB (scoreboard) and then Z.
This was the default setting, but meanwhile this setting seems to be removed.
I can neither find a setting to change that key nor I can display that bar with any other key.

Does someone know if that might have been removed or am I just too stupid to find it?


texts: How can I gift Call of Duty 4 to a friend without linking his account?

texts:
I subscribe to the monthly Humble Bundle games package. The big name game this month was Call of Duty Black Ops 4. I'm not really a fan of multi-player shooters, but I have a friend who enjoys them. I'd like to gift my copy of the game to him but the Humble Monthly key's page doesn't have a clear option to gift this game without linking his battle.net account to my Humble Bundle account.

Obviously I'd prefer not to link the accounts and just gift the key like I can do with Steam.  Is it possible to gift him the game without linking his account?

After reading the Redemption Instructions link I'm even more confused. On that page they have the following warning/notice in red:

  Please keep in mind that for the gifting option to be available you will need to have your Battle.net account linked to your Humble Bundle account as detailed above.

That seems pretty straight forward even though I don't currently have a Battle.net account, but then this image makes me wonder if I could even gift the game after creating my own Battle.net account:

Why are they asking to link an account and showing the gift button at the same time if you can only gift a game if you have an account linked?


texts: Do I need to ascend the perk trees in order?

texts:
Do I need to take each child perk along the perk tree in addition to meeting the skill requirements for perks?

For instance, the smithing perk tree is split into two sections: The left, which features light armor (Elven, Glass) and the right, which features the Heavier armor (Orcish, Ebony).

The Capstone Perk in the tree, Dragon Smithing, has "feed-in" lines from both Glass Smithing and Daedric Smithing.

Do I need to need to take Glass Smithing and Daedric Smithing if I want to learn the Dragon Smithing perk? Either or? Neither (as long as I have 100 smithing)?

texts: Turtle beach X12 making a subtle HISSING sound

texts:
I just bought a Turtle Beach X12 headset, and plugged it into my TV's audio out port (Red and white RCA connector).  When I plugged the USB power into the Xbox, I could now a hear a subtle hissing sound in the background.  This is when nothing is turned on.  When I turn on the TV and/or the Xbox, I get good sound from the headset, but the hissing is still there.  Any idea on how to fix this?  Or is it just a common issue with USB powered headsets?

UPDATE:  I just unplugged everything, and took the headset to my computer and plugged in ONLY the USB cable (no speaker or mic cable was connected), and got the hissing noise.  So whatever this hissing noise is, it's the USB power causing it.

When you first find Sif, he is weilding Artorias' greatsword, and the thing is as long as a bus! However, when you find him later in the DLC, he is only around twice the size of the Chosen Undead, and his sword is much smaller (wink).

Is there anything in the lore about how the sword grew/what caused it?


texts:
In the Witcher 1 some of the talents regarding styles mention things like '1st attack in sequence. Consists of 2 blows.'
As I unlocked the second level in strong style which says '2nd attack in sequence. Consists of 2 blows.' So the attack in sequence is, I suppose, the second attack after timing the click when the sword indicator is on fire.
If this is correct then this second attack should have an animation consisting of 2 blows, but Geralt only jumps in the air and hits once. How am I supposed to know that this talent actually works when I unlock it?
This example is just for strong style, I also noticed that for fast style. It says 5 blows, but it looks like he does 4. Even the damage number display less times than the number of blows.


texts: How often does Basil change his selection?

I am in quest of a certain 5-star recipe for which Basil is the only vendor (yes, I know I could just get it at the Auction House, but Basil is a lot cheaper).  Since he's only found in the Clockworks, and only sells 5-star recipes in Tier 3, it is not easy to get to him when he might have my recipe.

I'd rather not waste energy getting to him to check whether he has my recipe yet if his selection hasn't changed.  How often does Basil get different supplies?

texts: How did the players between the group to group rounds get allocated in the Homestory Cup IV?

texts:
I was watching the Homestory Cup IV yesterday, and I caught some of the "reseeding" between the Ro32 (8 groups of 4) and Ro16 (4 of 4) group stages and didn't really know what was going on.  Players seemed to be suggesting different group matchups, but I don't know if they were just throwing out ideas then having people agree on it, or if was somehow ordered.  They were saying "(Player X) can switch (player Y) into group Z", which makes me think the latter, but I don't know of any common rules for such an event.

Liquipedia just says "The Top 4 players, based on map score, from Group Stage #1 will be able to switch their groups in Group Stage #2", do they just give #1 first choice and on down?


texts: Can the PC Version of Injustice: Gods Among Us link to the iOS version?

texts: Let me just say that at the current moment, Injustice: Gods Among Us is my favorite iOS fighting game. To me though, the charm of fighting games is to unlock all the characters. In the iOS version, with all the alternate versions and such, you can understand that it got me pretty busy. After a while, for some reason also due to the release of the New 52 Black Adam skin, I've decided to bite the bullet and consider buying the ultimate edition of the PC version, since I don't have an XBox 360, a PS3...Well, pretty much every current-gen console. Part of my intent is so that I can unlock the characters in the iOS that needs to be unlocked via console (New 52 Flash and Green Lantern, Knightfall Bane, Prison Superman, Batman Beyond and Arkham Harley Quinn.) So I was wondering, is the PC version like the consoles? Can I link it to my WBID so I can unlock the iOS unlocks on the "Console"? And also vice versa, use the "console" to unlock stuff on the iOS?

texts: Cross-dimension teleportation using command block or datapack?

texts:
Is it possible to teleport a player in coordinates in another dimension? If not, is it possible using a datapack?

I'm using MultiVerse with 1.14 but their portals plugin is broken. I tried to use a command block but mvtp @p otherworld breaks, saying "can't find player @p". I assume Minecraft doesn't parse this since it's not a vanilla command.

Our goal is to teleport players after pushing a button on a block because we're a full survival server and don't allow teleports. Otherwise I could grant every permission to use mvtp directly.

As I am mashing the mouse button over and over again, is there a way to make it that my character DOES NOT pick up an item during an important boss battle, or any other battle for that matter?

I like the fact that gold is automatically picked up as you run over it, as opposed to the other 2 games, I also wish they did the same for other items.

texts: How to avoid becoming stressed while playing endurance games?

texts:
Although I am asking for Super Hexagon, I've noticed there is a multitude of games (rhythm games in particular) where the more stressed I am, the worse I play and/or are more likely to make a mistake. Often then the games are designed in such a way to induce stress, such as various ways of telling me how far I am, which also is telling me just how much it would suck if I were to fail right now.

This leads to a stress cycle, where I am noticing I am stressed, and I am aware of this being a bad thing, which makes me more stressed, over and around until I eventually fail.

This often means that I probably could've done <some new level I just unlocked> just fine, except I saw that it was new, got stressed about it and started the stress cycle.

So how can I:

Avoid getting stressed while playing
Defuse the stress cycle once it has inevitably started

One thought I had for this is simply taking deep breaths, but particularly in Super Hexagon, there is no way to pause and taking deep breaths is distracting enough to make me fail.

texts:
In this question: What are the differences between ships in Battlefront (x-wing, a-wing, tie, tie interceptor) the general characteristics of the different flying craft are discussed but speed is only vaguely mentioned.

I used to think that each craft had a different speed, but I recently noticed a counter example. I was able to stay behind an air speeder with a tie fighter for quite a while. Which leads me to believe that all the flying craft generally move at about the same speed.

Do all flying craft fly at the same speed, except when using a speed boost?

If not, what's the order of craft from fastest to slowest?

texts: My game crashes only in select locations

texts:
So, in the last few days I've been revisiting Skyrim, one of my favorite games, and trying to do a serious RP playthrough of the game (no fast travel, open cities mod, taking a journal, etc.)

Unfortunately for me, this became 20x harder for me yesterday, when I discovered walking toward Falkreath that my game crashes in two places that are essential to be passed on the way to the city. One is the large lake just north of it, and the road from Helgen to Falkreath. I tried to bypass the large trip by road to Falkreath by going to the hunter's camp behind the Guardian Stones, then proceeding to swim around the corner onto the land farther south of that.

I then discovered that that area causes me to crash (I've tested it, it's like an axes which crashes the game once I pass it). So, I decided the trip through Helgen would be fine.

As I continued down that road, I found it crashes in an area on that road. Same situation, trying to walk around causes the same thing. Every time I neared that point, there was a Redguard warrior standing still there, making me suspect he was a maliciously bugged NPC. I discovered he was not the problem as he came forward of the line to kill a skeleton that had randomly spawned. I neared him, and didn't crash. I proceeded to kill him (just in case) and walked west to that line, and it crashed again. I've tried deactivating certain mods, as well as sleeping a week hoping the cells would reset, and while they did, it did not affect the places of crash.

I made a new game and deleted all of the save games that I believed were corrupted. This was not the case. As soon as I escaped Helgen I headed to the Guardian Stones with Hadvar and then went the exact same route around the hunter's camp I originally took, to discover that the game still crashed in that location.

After that, I decided the only way to fix it was to delete the game and reinstall it. After doing that I walked to the area causing my game to crash, to no avail. I'd highly appreciate some help or guidance. Thanks!

texts: Is it possible to make memory card loads faster with ePSXe?

texts:
I've googled around for this but couldn't find a result.  Besides using the quick-save/load feature of ePSXe, is there a way to make the memory card become "detected" quicker for certain games?

I'm playing FF7 again, and I like to use the save points as kind of a peace-of-mind backup.  When I go to save though, the memory card takes like 5 seconds to become "detected".  Is there a way to speed this up, ignoring the quick-save answer?

Update:

If it helps, I'm currently using Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.9 for my Video plugin.  Here are the settings:

Update 2:

OK, so I messed around with the FPS limits as per Xkeeper's method, and successfully toggled the frame limiter between all 3 states.  The only noticeable difference that happened is that in the FL2 state, the FPS stuck right at 59.8, while the others just hovered around 60.  Is there a way to change the 59.8?  I've tried changing all combinations of the radio buttons regarding the framerate in the settings image above, with no success.  The [...] button simply leads to button mappings.  I guess this question could be interpreted to the following now:  Does anyone know how to fast forward with ePSXe, or forcibly set the FPS?

An alternative option I've found is to try to switch to PSX Emulator, which has a fast forward button on the spacebar, but I'd rather not do that.

texts: What affects the amount of hitpoints each eaten candy increases?

texts:
Eating candies increase max health. I'm currently trying to balance my hitpoints on my current playthrough, as I had encountered a problem finishing a certain quest on a previous playthrough due to eating too much candy.

I tried computing the HP I get from three different saved games, but I get different computations for each:

  Default hitpoints: 100

  Save # 1
  Candies eaten: 1179994540874
  HP: 141670

  1179994540874 candies / (141670 - 100) HP = 8335060.68 candies / HP

  Save # 2
  Candies eaten: 300004 candies
  HP: 425

  300004 candies / (425 - 100) HP = 923.09 candies / HP

  Save# 3
  Candies eaten: 370 candies
  HP: 122

  370 candies / (122 - 100) HP = 16.82 candies / HP

Hence, I would like to ask:

What affects the amount of hitpoints each candy increases?
By how much will eating one candy raise max health?

texts: Why does the multiplayer button in Minecraft PE change from on to off?

texts:
I just downloaded Minecraft about two weeks ago and I am trying to invite my friends to come to my world.
When I go to the menu, I click on invite to game and chose my friends from the online list. When I click invite they don't get the invite.

My friends were able to invite me and it showed up and I was able to go into their worlds, but they never get my invitation.

I have tried with multiple friends, I have tried to connect to the same Wifi as them, I have tried swiping up on Minecraft PE, and I have tried re-downloading Minecraft.
It is also updated to the latest update as for all of my friends.

Also, sometimes when they are in Minecraft and I go to invite them, it shows all of my friends as being offline even though some are online.

What could cause these behaviour and how could I fix it ?

UPDATE: I figured out that when I go into the world settings and click on Multiplayer, it shows the multiplayer button on and it is on Friends of friends and the Open to LAN Players is also on. When I open my world and go into the settings, it shows the multiplayer button being off and it's grayed out so I can't turn it on or off (which I know it's supposed to be grayed out in the setting while your in the world) and I'm not sure if that's why my invites don't send. I have also made sure that my game settings are on Wifi and Cellular and it is set to use Cellular. Please help me! :(

texts:
So, I was interested in seeing if I could get Iona to wear some more common clothes around the house.  I pretty much just leave her there most of the time anyway, so there's no point in her being always dressed for battle.

I couldn't seem to get her to un-equip her standard armor, and she wouldn't put on regular clothing or lesser armor while it was equipped.  So, after I finished leveling and perking up my pickpocketing, I stole the Steel Armor straight off her back.  After that, I gave her some more suitable house attire (via "Follow me..." -> "I need to trade...") which she gladly put on.  However, when I later left and returned to the house, I found her wandering around in her undergarments!

I checked her inventory, and found the clothes I'd given her were still there and her armor wasn't.  So, she had no good reason not to be dressed in what had been handed to her.  Later, I figured out this continues to happen even if I leave a full set of Legendary-quality Dragonscale Armor with her.

And, later on... I found out this is also the case with Lydia and Jordis.  They'll all wear their clothes immediately after being given them.  But if I leave them at home, I'll return to find them bare.

Is this a known bug?  Is there any way around it without using the PC-only console?

Also, does anyone know if they will let you use the save games from the demo in the full version? (assuming you can actually save the game, I'm still downloading it)


texts: Unable to Join Minecraft Server I Host When Using Domain Name, but can Still Join When Using the IP

texts:
Issue/Background
I host a Minecraft server from a home machine. Recently I decided to open it up to the public, but to protect my private IP address (and to give the server a static IP) I set up a proxy for free by using SSLH on an AWS EC2 instance.
I allocated an Elastic IP to the instance, acquired a domain name, and registered my Elastic IP to the domain.
When I try to join the server with the domain name, specifying port 55565, I am unable to connect. I am however able to connect just fine when I join with the Elastic IP and port.
I am at a loss for what could be causing the problem here, but I am certainly overlooking some critical detail. Any suggestions as to what I might try next would be thoroughly appreciated.
What I've Tried
Thinking the issue could be with the nameservers not resolving the requests appropriately, I switched to Clooudflare nameservers (making sure to set the proxy status within Cloudflare to "DNS Only"). Didn't work.
Still thinking the issue was with domain resolution, I set an SRV Record in Cloudflare so I shouldn't even have to type out the port. Still didn't work.
Thinking the issue could have to do with AWS, I set the security group's inbound rules to accept inbound traffic of any type on any port. Still can't connect, but hey I can ping it so that's cool. (reverted this rule after testing)
Other Info
Not sure what else to include honestly. I'm still a bit of a beginner when it comes to this sorta thing. The DNS records that are listed for the domain are the A record and the SRV record.
I'm starting to thing the issue could be with the AWS instance. The configuration for SSLH looks like this
# This is a basic configuration file that should provide
# sensible values for "standard" setup.

verbose: false;
foreground: true;
inetd: false;
numeric: false;
transparent: false;
timeout: 2;
user: "sslh";

# Change hostname with your external address name.

texts:
I've recently dug my quarry/mine down to a certain level where it has encountered a large mineshaft section and I am building a mine cart track through it to a nearby ravine and caves (because, hey, pre-made tunnels!) I've blocked off sections with fences so I don't get lost but there's still an annoying amount of spiders webs about. If I'm in the mine cart it would be fine but walking about and even nudging them slows me down.

I've tried axes, spades, pickaxes and even digging out holes above and pouring lava on them (which works, although has the significant self-immolation hazard, when I've been mining and am carrying a lot of coal/cobblestone/some diamonds I'd rather avoid).

I'm playing on peaceful (Vanilla MC, no mods) so I don't have to worry about the spiders themselves.

texts: Am I free to stop worrying about Colossi after I kill a few?

texts:
In this video, we can see that after losing the first three Colossus units, the Protoss player didn't have a lot of them at one time. He had them, but never three again in the same place. He was splitting his minerals between Templars and Colossi.

So I could conclude that if I kill the first group of Colossus units with Vikings, I don't need a lot of vikings anymore. Is this true?


texts: Are all agents identical except for their abilities?

texts:
I'd like to know if there is any difference between the agents when ignoring their abilities.
Do all agents for example have the same movement speed while running or walking or jumping? Identical weapon handling such as reload time, draw time, recoil?
Basically I'd like to know if the abilities should be the only criteria for choosing an agent, outside of cosmetic differences.


texts:
When flying the Zoltan ship, if you get an event with boarders it sometimes justifies bypassing your Super Shields by saying "they must have a Zoltan Shield Bypass installed on their ship!"

Which makes me wonder, is this just a flavour text excuse to justify an otherwise contradictory encounter, or can enemy ships actually have Augments? If the latter, which ships can have which augments?

texts: Using a PSN account from India in Germany

texts:
I have a PSN account from India in which I have a lot of trophies, but no games. I used to live in India, but recently moved to Germany.
I bought a new PS4 pro today in Germany and I was wondering whether I should keep using my Indian PSN account or create a new one? I don't want to lose any trophies I acquired earlier, but I don't want to get into a region locking mess also.

So, I just want to know if there'll be any potential issue I may face when I use my Indian PSN account on a German PS4 pro in Germany? I may want to buy a PS plus subscription on a later date and I certainly do not want to get into a legal trouble (if there's any).

texts: What is the best tactic for finding cicada cages in A Tale in the Desert?

texts:
I'm looking for more insightful comments than "run through the desert with your speakers turned up" or "go where you think others won't."  Do you have any specific tactics that have worked well for you?  Things that aren't on the test's wiki page -- that seem to be working so far, and best of all -- have helped you pass the test in previous tellings.

Before the Oyster test introduced swimming (in T4?), there was a whole ferry-chain, island-hopping game involved in cicada placement.  Talking about that would be a great answer if it weren't for swimming having negated the issue.  What other kinds of things like that are there?

My Minecraft password will not work. I've reset it about 5 times and no matter what I choose as my password, it will not take it. I just made my Minecraft account today

texts: Can you dodge the "version mismatch" bug in Civilization V?

texts:
Recently, an upgrade has been made for Civilization 5, that makes it impossible for Macs and PCs to play together, due to "version mismatch" (the update was for Windows only)

This have happened before, and there have been weeks before a proper fix arrived. As far as I can tell, its simply a string comparison between the version numbers of the clients that resolve this.

Is it possible to work around this in any way? Some mean hack or opening file X with a text editor and do some magic?

We have a meeting this weekend to play the new expansion, and we are five macs and three PCs... It would be sad if we were unable to play together all of us.


texts:
I know the basics: left click is attack, right click is use. I do not have my game on adventure mode, it is on peaceful survival. I do not have cheats on either.

When I put my cursor on something, it doesn't even "highlight" the block like it normally does. If I hold down the left mouse button, it hits once and then stops moving. There are no mining animations nor breaking down of blocks. Essentially nothing happens.

I've checked my settings a million times, and I have restarted the game at least twice. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Any ideas? Am I missing something really obvious?

This is the client that I downloaded.

  We've already received payment for the contract.  Failure is not an option.

Obviously, I don't like being marked for death, and would prefer to instead completely destroy Astrid and the rest.

I made sure mods were disabled on the server I was playing on (they were), but I still lost 2 ammo regardless.

Why does this happen? Is it just how the game works?

texts: What is the most efficient way to use additional incubators?

texts:
I really like to hatch eggs, and the 3 uses / incubator per egg give a huge impact for the more or less decent price. So I usually have 6~7 incubator active. First I applied them when ever they were available to what ever egg I just had but it felt kinda inefficient to do so for me.

It started feeling more efficient when I only applied the infinite incubator to the 2.0 KM eggs. But I can't really get why this should matter.

So is there any most efficient way to apply incubators to eggs to get the most use of them before they are expired?

Or doesn't it matter at all?

texts:
I'm trying to make a jetpack with a battery using Vanilla Minecraft commands. The more you use it, the more the battery depletes. So far, I have the 'battery' part working and the jetpack itself, but I cannot figure out how to lower the durability of an item every time you use the jetpack.

I've used the carrot on a stick as the jetpack, so when I right click and hold it levitates me up slightly, and I got a chest plate as the battery (Because it has durability). I've also made it where the jetpack only works if you have the battery, so if the durability of the chest plate runs out, then it won't work anymore. My only issue is that I can't figure out how to lower the durability of the chest-plate (acting as the battery) when I use the jetpack.

texts: How can you summon/create player shot arrows using commands?

texts:
When killing a player with an arrow, it will come with different death messages depending on who or what shot the arrow:

Dispenser:[player] was shot by arrow
Player/Mob:[player] was shot by [player/mob]
Player/Mob w/ Renamed Bow:[player] was shot by [player/mob] using [bow name]

When a player kills another player in this method, there are events that are triggered such as the killing player's kill count will increase, or when a skeleton's arrow kills a creeper the creeper drops a music disk.

Is there any way to summon arrows that are shot by a player or mob? There is no nbt tag ownerName for arrows, only for thrown ender pearls, snowballs, exp bottle, and potions. If so, how is the shooter stored?

I can simulate the effects of a player/mob shot arrow, i want to know if i could create arrows that straight up is a player/mob shot arrow.

  Rogue Robe is mostly nowhere to be seen in a fight, but now and then, he strikes from the shadows.
  Support Robe makes sure his groups spellcasting is at its best.

Now, that doesn't really tell me anything, especially the last two points. What are the actual perks/downsides of donning those robes?


texts: What is the "best practice" on taking down a helicopter with a (single) Stinger?

texts:
This is how I usually try to take down a helicopter:

If he is too far away, I usually don't even care (longer "lock-on" time, reload countermeasures, etc.)

if he is mid to close range I usually lock-on, fire, he countermeasures
then I fire the second shot and usually this gives me the "vehicle disabled" message

But I'm curious how you do this and if there is a more "efficient" way. For example lock-on, wait till he countermeasures, wait a bit, then fire?

How do I solve this glitch?

texts: Is the engram reward power-level determined upon receiving, or decrypting?

texts:
I recently hit max level in Destiny 2 and have started my path on gearing up to do raids. I have a general idea of how gear level is determined, slightly above your current, so that you steadily increase in power.

I have noticed that when I get an engram, the power level of the items inside are sometimes lower than my current power level. If I want to maximize the power level of each engram that I open, would it be best to wait until my power level is as high as possible?

Or is the power level for the engram rewards determined when you get the engram?


texts: How do I upload old screenshots taken with traditional methods to Steam?

Steam now has a screenshot-hosting feature, but I've been unable to break the habit of hitting F5 to take traditional TGA screenshots in Team Fortress 2, rather than the new hotkey F12 (the default) to take screenshots for uploading to Steam.

There are a couple of images I'd like to upload, but as they weren't taken using the new hotkey they don't appear in Screenshot Manager. Rather, they're in the old screenshots folder, %ProgramFiles%\Steam\steamapps\[username]\team fortress 2\tf\screenshots, in the TGA format.

Is there a way I can import these screenshots to Screenshot Manager for upload to my Steam profile?

texts: Is Death March more difficult in NG or NG+?

texts:
I want the trophy for the Death March difficulty in the game. I finish the game with all sidequest and I´m currently level 35. My question is, is WAY to much harder in NG+ the death march? or should I just begin from 0? I'm pretty sure at first will be a little easier, since I have all my skills and all end game weapons. But, I don't want to suffer in mid game. But, if is almost the same in NG then I just go with NG+.

So, what I want to know is: Is Death March way harder in NG+ with level 35. Or starting in New game at level 0.

texts: Is there a way to view monsters' status?

texts:
In Knights of Pen and Paper there are a number of status effects you can inflict on enemies, such as weakness, bleeding, setting them on fire, etc. Most of these have a handy icon displayed on the monster themselves, but these can be hard to see due to the (charming) pixelly graphics. This is especially true when there are more than 3-4 enemies on the screen. In addition to this, monsters can be hit by the same effect multiple times (e.g. Warrior's Strike and Cleric's Weakening) but I can't tell if they stack or not as the icon doesn't change.

Is there a way to see the current status effects on the monsters and players during battle? This would be invaluable for the harder battles where you need to strategise a bit more. I've tried clicking on the monster but it just does a default attack (which is near useless for magic wielders) and holding a finger down on them, which doesn't seem to do anything.

texts: I have a survival world in which I reached the Nether.  However, my portal generated in some tunnels, none of which lead to the surface of the Nether.  I did find my way out, but my opening to go back to my portal is very small.  I got lost once already, ending in me losing all my iron gear and tools, as well as a netherite scrap, which took me 12 beds to find.  I don't want this to happen again.  Not only this, but I am looking both north and south but cannot find any Nether Fortresses.  Am I doing something wrong?  Is my world broken?

texts: How can I tp a player to an entity without locking my vision

texts: I did a lot of testing but I can't find a way to /tp a player to an entity ( with the /fill clock ) without having all the time my vision locked. Every time I teleport to the entity I want, I can't move my head because it teleports me again. How can I teleport constantly to a entity and face where I want freely.


texts:
My goal is to use ArmorStands wearing elytra for ray casting. So far I figured out how to make it travel horizontally in any direction. But my problem is that the speed of the entity changes and it results in a curved path when I try to make it travel other pitches than straight horizontal. The method I use teleports the entity upwards every tick by a fixed amount as it glides.

What I can change with commands:

initial vertical momentum
entity rotation
upwards teleport amount

So I'd need the X and Z components of the momentum to be constant for this to be viable. Because I can counteract the Y momentum with the teleportation but not the X or Z. As long as the tp value can be calculated as some polynomial with trig-functions it's feasible to implement it.

How could I determine at what pitch does the X and Z momentum stay constant?

Here's a simplified snippet from the MCP:

Vec3d Look = getLookVec()
f = rotationPitch * 0.017453292 # pi/180
LookHorizontal = sqrt(Look.xCoord * Look.xCoord + Look.zCoord * Look.zCoord)
MotionHorizontal = sqrt(motionX * motionX + motionZ * motionZ)
LookLength = Look.lengthVector()
PitchCos = MathHelper.cos(f)
PitchCos = PitchCos * PitchCos * min(1.0, LookLength / 0.4)
motionY += -0.08 + PitchCos * 0.06

if (motionY < 0.0 and LookHorizontal > 0.0) #Moving DOWN and not looking straight up or down
{
    d2 = motionY * -0.1 * PitchCos
    motionY += d2
    motionX += Look.xCoord * d2 / LookHorizontal
    motionZ += Look.zCoord * d2 / LookHorizontal
}

if (f < 0.0) #Looking UP
{
    d9 = MotionHorizontal * -sin(f) * 0.04
    motionY += d9 * 3.2
    motionX -= Look.xCoord * d9 / LookHorizontal
    motionZ -= Look.zCoord * d9 / LookHorizontal
}

if (LookHorizontal > 0.0) #Not looking straight up or down
{
    motionX += (Look.xCoord / LookHorizontal * MotionHorizontal - motionX) * 0.1
    motionZ += (Look.zCoord / LookHorizontal * MotionHorizontal - motionZ) * 0.1
}

motionX *= 0.99
motionY *= 0.98
motionZ *= 0.99
moveEntity(motionX, motionY, motionZ)


texts: I have tried everything and I gave it 256 (yes 256) fish and it still won't tame! It's just running around in my house. If anyone can help me please do so.


texts: Switching from Nexus Mod Manager to Mod Organiser?

Hi I have 76 mods installed nmm and now want to switch to MO so I can have multiple profiles (starting a new playthrough with different mods). How can I transfer all the mods across to MO from NMM because I want to remove NMM completely

Thanks


texts: Do I need to claim my Playstation Plus Instant Game Collection?

texts:
Just signed up for a year of Playstation Plus.  Do I need to download games to claim them for my collection or will any games in the collection be automatically considered owned as long as I am subscribed?

For example, I downloaded Dragon's Dogma right before it got removed at the beginning of this month.  Did I need to download it to claim it or could I have waited until a later time and then downloaded it since I was a Playstation Plus subscriber when it was part of the Instant Game Collection?  If I would not, is there an easy way to "claim" all of your Instant Game Collection without downloading them all to the hard drive at least once?


texts: How many different monitors exist in Chapter 8?

texts:
There is an achievement for smashing a certain number of different monitors in the game.  It seems like there are no possible ways to break some of the monitors, but I still haven't broken enough of them.

How many monitors exist in Chapter 8?  Is it possible to break each of those monitors (without using a glitch)?
