Video Games / Re: Dolphin Wii Emulation
September 20, 2014, 12:40:39 am
I started Xenoblade Chronicles on Dolphin over the summer. There's an HD texture pack for it that can be run through Dolphin and it makes it look almost like not a Wii game. Haha. I never got that far into the game, but the quality of emulation was great.

the Sims 4

I myself may or may not have spent far too many hours this past weekend in the CAS getting my Sims 4 sims just perfect.... And then starting over because I decided later there was a tiny thing that needed to be changed. Hahaha.

On topic, this is an impressive development. I'm looking forward to seeing if it leads to anything really ground-breaking from either a theory or daily-use perspective.

RMXP Script Database / Re: [XP] Enemies That Level Up
September 15, 2014, 07:31:18 pm
It would be interesting to adapt this script to be used for ease of use of the programmer rather than for level scaling. A lot of people (well, me personally sometimes, and, by extension, probably others. Unless I'm just terribly incompetent. >.<) sometimes have trouble knowing exactly how difficult to make the enemies in a given area of the game that will help them to be challenging but not frustrating. The ideal solution is to make creative enemies that use unique tactics, abilities, and so on.
However, if, for example, you're creating an area with only a minor role in the story, but want to be able to populate it with some quickly-made monsters, you could have the script generate enemies at the appropriate level relative to the area. Of course, you'd still probably want to have at least unique names and color schemes for the enemies so as not to ever cross the line of being downright lazy, but this would at least take some of the arithmetic and testing out of the picture.

Sorry for the rambling - just a thought I had as I was looking through the script.

I have an Asus Vivotab Note 8, which is nearly identical to the Venue 8 Pro but with a Wacom stylus, and I love it. I use it all the time. I think you'll really enjoy your Venue 11. :)

I'll probably just start building it in 2 or 3 months from now  :roll: What about you?

I still didn't "decide" the psu and the bluray driver.. I seriously have no clue about them
Ah, and I might need some more fans   :???:


Most cases come with all of the fans that you'll need, as do any internal devices requiring fans (most notably CPU coolers.) Unless you want to replace those fans for some reason, you probably don't need to buy any more. For the PSU, I would highly recommend getting something that's gold rated. It will give you some peace of mind that your computer isn't likely to short out or blow up. :)

I think the problem with scaling at such a small level is that you can't have float values "in between" pixels. Pixels can only deal with whole numbers, so you can't have half a pixel be one thing and half be the other thing.

I might just be misunderstanding, but I hope that helps.

Script Requests / Re: About resolution scripts
September 06, 2014, 09:31:29 pm
I don't know of any script that's able to scale to the screen size rather than to a set resolution. This could be a feature in a script somewhere, but I'm not aware of it being so. Sorry. :(

You'll definitely want a blue drive instead of a green. WD green drives are quite a bit slower; they're meant to be economy drives, using power only when they need it. For a gaming machine, that's a much bigger con than a pro.

Though I don't need anything myself, I just wanted to thank you for providing such a great service - the quality of your work is really great, to top things off. :) I'll keep your thread in mind in case there ever comes a time when I might need something myself, or if I hear of anyone else needing something along these lines.

I've never seen a warning for CP on any of my browsers/devices, and I usually use Chrome. Kind of odd.

Video Games / Re: 3DS Homebrew Finally Coming

Actually, I do see an upside. This will probably help in the development of a 3DS emulator.


That would be awesome. :D

I'm also just excited about the prospect of homebrew. The PSP was one of my favorite handhelds ever, because I could run a great variety of emulators on it, like SNES, GBA, and PSX. The first time I played through Mother 3 was on my PSP. I'm sure the 3DS might not get to that point for a while, but it's great that we might be headed in that direction.

I looked up comparable parts, and it would be about $700 or so new for equivalent parts today. Sounds like a pretty good deal. :)

Could you give some screenshots of your event pages, or maybe upload a short demo of the map? This does sound like a strange issue, but I'm sure there's a solution somewhere. :)

Chat / Re: The "Post your Desktop" Thread
August 20, 2014, 02:19:31 am
Ryex, your desktops are always awesome. I aspire to one day take a step in your shoes and move forward from my simple life of desktop wallpapers with literally no icons or widgets outside the vanilla Windows 8 taskbar with Chrome and Explorer on it, as is my current setup.

Resources / Re: My 'VX style' small iconset
August 19, 2014, 09:25:29 pm
These are great! They look like something straight out of the official icon set. The potions actually look similar enough to the RTP icons that I had to pull up RMXP and double check to see the differences. XD

I've had this happen to a couple of mice before. It usually means that the pads under the mouse buttons have just worn through, unfortunately; there isn't much that you can do except get a new mouse if this is the case. Sorry for the bad news. :(

there is only 4 true 8 core processors on the market. all 4 of them are made by AMD. Intel only does 4 physical cores but simulates 8 logical ones.


Except for the 4930k and 4960x. ;) They are 6 core i7 chips with 12 logical threads.

G_G, I don't want to request any Steam keys since I'd feel bad taking your stuff :P, but I just want to say that this is a really awesome thing of you to do. You are great, G_G. :)

My headphone terminology might not be correct, so I'll just say that I really, really don't like the headphones that squish my ears against my head. I like the kind with the GIGANTIC earpieces that can go completely around my ears without squishing them. :)
