title: Is it possible to alter the placement of Wii Channels?

text: I have enough channels on my Wii now that they have spilled over to a second page. It's very cumbersome to have to move to that second page to access those channels when there are other channels on the first page that I use very infrequently. Can I move the channels around, or am I stuck with their current layout?


title: My character keeps jumping around in NetHack. Why?

text: I've spent quite a while on my NetHack game (for me), and I've managed to get up a few levels. However, my character has (annoyingly) started to randomly jump around to different parts of the level - which is both a blessing and a curse. Why does this happen?


title: How does weapon unlocking work? How do I quickly unlock the next weapon?

text: I'm currently getting parts to the Gatling Gun. How does unlocking a weapon work (what causes the weapon parts dropping)? And how can I quickly unlock the next weapon? Any tips or tricks in getting those weapon parts to drop frequently?   * What types of races or tracks should I be looking for?    * How are weapon parts dropped?      * Are there specific opponents/vehicles that are more likely to drop weapon parts?     * Is it random?


title: Do I always get an abundance of just a couple different metal ores?

text: When I embark I specifically look for shallow and deep metal with at least a little soil in hopes of getting iron. Which half the time i do get iron and maybe one other different type of metal. The other half of the time i end up with all gold and usually silver. Am i just not looking hard enough? I feel like there should be a wide variety metals in a certain area. **Do i always get an abundance of just a couple different ores and miss out of getting to use the rest?**

title: Lost saved games and profiles on Xbox 360 after getting on Xbox live

text: I was playing Skyrim and screen froze. I turned it off and when I turned it back on all my saved games and game profiles were gone and only got the Xbox live home page. There was no history of any of the games my family had been playing or their profiles. I spent about an hour with support and am still waiting for an answer. Any thoughts?


title: What do robot parts do?

text: After creating the metalwork station, I am able to construct various robot parts, such as legs, arms, and chest parts. I cannot yet make a head (no artificial brain), and I cannot make the robot crafting station, but I am quite curious what will happen if I try to construct this robot. What do these robot parts do, and is it a good idea to use my resources to build a robot?


title: What do you do and get once you are Ingress level 8?

text: The goal of some (or most?) Ingress players is to reach level 8. Honestly I am confused why. What do you get or do when you hit level 8? Do you get a new role? What's new versus playing in lower levels? What I have noticed is that some (or most?) L8 players drastically stop playing, the same way when one stops playing a video game title once he reaches the highest level and "beats" the game. Are you allowed to "start over" in Ingress?


title: How do you earn special costumes in TDS?

text: If you look at a bitizen in TDS, you can change their appearance. You are also given the option of using a special costume. I've noticed that I have an inventory of these, but I have no idea how I earned them. The numbers seem to change without purchasing them with bux. Does anyone know how these are earned? I assume it has something to do with the number of ? visitors wearing those costumes.


title: How does the burning damage over time effect interact with your destruction skill-gain?

text: When you slap your Fire Spell of Choice on your Arch-Nemesis Mob of Choice in Skyrim the evildo-er (or rightous pr--k) takes a healthy dose of instant fire damage, and has a worthwhile DoT effect applied to him as well. My question is, does your destruction skill increase from ONLY the initial damage, or does it continue to increase from the DoT damage too? I'm aware this is difficult to play-test, as DoT damage isn't particuarly large, but I'm hoping someone on the PC version of the game can find out through one of those handy dandy third party programs they have.


title: Nothing happens when I reach the tower entrance

text: ![](http://i.imgur.com/09LWBuj.jpg) This is where the game gets to, and soft-hangs, every time. By "soft-hang" I mean the animations and sounds play normally, but nothing actually happens no matter what buttons I press or how long I wait. What's going on?


title: Troubleshooting intermittent game disconnections in Halo Reach

text: We (myself and roomates) have been attempting to play Halo: Reach on XBox Live. However, despite no other issues with our internet connection, the XBox randomly decides to drop the connection. We then get penalized for a noncompleted game, and don't get credit for the game. We have to restart the XBox to reestablish a connection with XBox Live. What kinds of issues might cause this? Is there anything we can do to troubleshoot? I can say that we are not wanting in terms of bandwidth or anything like that; we're at a University backed by some seriously fast fiber. (And therefore I can't see why we'd be having issues)

title: What can be unlocked in San Francisco Rush 2049 in multiplayer?

text: I play San Francisco Rush 2049 (on Dreamcast, if it matters) with a friend, and we want to unlock features together in 2-player mode. Is this even possible or do you have to play in single-player mode? I read that you can unlock a new single-player mode, when you get 1000000 points in stunt mode. I assume that you don't have to get these points in _one_ session, as it seems impossible. The points seem to get saved in the player's score table, so you'll have to collect these, I guess. How do you get new stunt levels? Do you have to collect all gold and silver coins? Would only one of us need all coins, or do we both need to get all coins? If only one of us has all coins, can we nevertheless play the new level together? How do we get new cars? Only in race mode? Again, is it possible to unlock them in 2-player mode? Are there new battle maps or even weapons to unlock? Anything else?


title: CS:GO - How to join competitive servers?

text: I have, so far, only played cs:go by clicking **Browse community servers** and join a few of my favorite servers (mostly low ping and friendly people). Now I am getting a little better on the game I though about playing competitive to see what rank I can get, but I have a doubt. Does the only way to join competitive servers is by clicking **Find a game** and selecting **competitive**? **Community quick-play** and **Browse community servers** are just casual (non ranked)? _I ask this because I would like to see a list of competitive servers to I can choose the one I want, but I believe **Find a game** option just choose the server for you._

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

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


title: How to book many marines quickly

text: In the late game, when I have 5-7 raxes I often need to book 15-20 marines (lings, etc) at a time. To do so right now I'm pressing 'a' button 15-20 times... which take me solid 5-10 seconds.... Is there any way to do that quicker?

Is there any better way?

title: When do mobs despawn in Minecraft?

text: I understand monsters only spawn in a 9 x 9 grid of chunks centered on the player, and I assume they stay around while they remain within that distance of you. But do they despawn as soon as you move away from them? Or do they remain? If so what (if anything) causes them to despawn? Are the rules any different for passive mobs? Will running far away from an area and then coming right back clear it of monsters?


title: How long do monsters take to despawn?

text: So, I'm in a bit of a pinch. I'm on an SMP server, with 1.5 hearts and no food, but all the ingredients. I'm about to prepare some mushroom stew, but alas, I got chased and cornered by a creeper in a grief-protected house. If I open the door, I'm finished, but there's no other way. So, I'd like to wait for a creeper to despawn while I'm offline. How long would it take?

title: What is a good road layout when starting up a city?

text: _First things first: I know it depends on the resources etc how exactly you start out._ Whenever you start out with a new city, you need to make sure you don't run into traffic problems later. Best for this is having the medium avenues around the city. But those are expensive and therefore, you cannot lay out the basic foundation of your city at once. **What is a general tactic to start out with for roads, without having to replace them later on?** Do you use all 3 loans? Lay down 1 part of the city and continue later on? _Screenshots of an example would be nice!_

title: What's the starting loadout (especially ammo) on the Challenge map?

text: The single-player Challenge map (from the Second Strike DLC) increases the difficulty compared to the vanilla game by showing only the minimum amount of information on the HUD. Among the things that aren't shown are hit points (not a big deal since getting shot is a very bad idea anyway), number of health syringes, and most importantly, ammo count. While I can keep track of how many rounds I have left before having to reload, I don't even know how many I start out with, and thus, whether I should conserve ammo or feel free to eliminate all hostiles I encounter. Does anyone know what the starting loadout on the Challenge map is, especially in terms of ammo?

title: Is Mr. Matherson or Charlie Matherson Jr the Slenderman in Slender: The Arrival?

text: I realize it may never be possible to fully know, but I'm trying to compile the most logical conclusion possible. WARNING: If you have not played Slender: The Arrival, this question is loaded with spoilers. After playing through the game and playing then hidden glitch level, it seems fairly safe to say that Charlie Matherson Jr is Slender. This is for a few reasons: 1) You run at the Charlie Matherson Jr. poster to enter the glitch level, where it says "I'm lost, can you find me?". You find Slender, and he says "I like you let's play a game". Not only is this childish, but it associates the missing poster with Slender. 2) When you die in the glitch level, they place Charlie Matherson Jr's face directly on top of Slender's missing face, implying that is his face. On those grounds alone it seems fairly likely. However there are a few snags: 1) After you find CR burning in the radio building and get attacked by that bizarre blue creature, you find the "?" note that details how CR was trying to help Mr. Matherson find his missing son. In the note it mentions that Mr. Matherson is dead, but finding his son would help him be at peace. This means that Mr. Matherson might be slender, but he could also be that weird blue creature. 2) But the biggest problem is that you can actually find Charlie Matherson Jr. In the prologue, after crossing the bridge, there's an abandoned building. Charlie Matherson Jr is crying inside, and if you approach him, he vanishes. There is proof that is Charlie because you get the "Cry Baby" achievement for interrupting Charlie's crying 3 times. Now of course, he vanishes so it could be a ghost or just Slender in a different form. After all, Kate is crying at the end of then game but immediately becomes the proxy when you approach her. What do you guys think? Any details I've overlooked that tip the scales clearly in one direction?


title: How do I obtain the secret "Chatterbox" achievement?

text: I was made aware of this secret achievement today, and apparently I've already missed some dialog between Lara and the Endurance crew members.

When do I have to talk to my crew members in order to hear the extra dialogs and get this achievement?

Is there any way to determine what areas on the map are visible to a unit other than eye-balling it?

text: I've never had the opportunity to play this game in multiplayer online. AFAIK, it takes an emulator (MAME) that includes Kaillera (MAME Plus Plus) to play roms online, and also this emulator has to be compatible with the game in order to make it work. The game doesn't work with the latest MAME Plus Plus emulator (0.119). Which version of MAME Plus Plus (that includes Kaillera) shall I download to play Killer Instinct online?

title: Is there a clear water MineCraft mod that will work for SMP servers?

text: I would like to know if it's possible to use some kind of minecraft mod to make the water that I look through clear. I understand that there's mods to do it and I can also modify my texture pack, but I've not found any clear details and more importantly, I haven't learned whether I'll be able to use that kind of a mod when I play on my SMP server. Can somebody point me in the right direction to answer these questions? **edit** To be clear, I don't want to just edit the texture pack, I would also like to change the clarity (and color?) of the water itself so I can see further and so the light doesn't decrease as fast. I'm going to be making a water world (110 block sea level and canyons down to 20 blocks) using the PhoenixTerrainMod so it's rather important that I'm able to see long distances and that the water isn't totally dark because it sucks up all the light. From what I understand I'll need a client mod to modify the alpha values of the water, so where might I be able to get that?


title: What does "station turnaround time" mean?

title: Where do I place my nether portals so they don't collide?

text: I am having trouble placing my nether-side portals so they connect to the correct overworld-side portals. Note, when I started I wasn't aware that the Y-coordinate mattered; I figured the proximity thing was only based on x and z coordinates. Anyways, first I built an overworld portal at -16, 196, 163. It's three wide so the actual portal blocks are -15/-16/-17, 196, 163. I then went into the nether via another portal and built one at -2, 51, 20. When they're both lit, they connect properly and no other portals collide. Praise the miners! (The overworld portal would take me to the spawn chunks, you see.) Next I set out to build an Iron Foundry (Ethos' design, here.) It requires a small nether portal, which wound up needing to be placed at -14, 184, 210/209. I figured, build another portal at -2, 51, and 26 to make them line up nicely. No digs. Now the nether side of the spawn chunks portal takes me to the over side of the iron foundry portal, and the overworld side of the spawn chunks portal takes me to the nether side of the iron foundry. Both iron foundry portals link to each other. summary of portal locations: overworld:   * spawn chunks: -16, 196, 163   * iron foundry: -14, 184, 210 nether:   * spawn chunks: -2, 51, 20   * iron foundry: -2, 51, 26 My actual question: where can I move my nether portals so they work properly? I can move the spawn chunks portals if need be, but the iron foundry overworld portal needs to be there (otherwise I might as well scrap the whole project.) Thanks for any help!


title: Two sets of nether portals, only one set works both ways

text: I have built an area in the sky in the overworld and have attempted to link to it from the ground through the Nether rather than building ladders and such in the overworld. I've read that the Y coordinate does not need to be translated to the Nether since it doesn't reach as high as the overworld anyways as long as all the portals in the Nether are at the same elevation. There's also a video demonstrating this. Is that false? I drew a diagram to best describe what is happening with the attached coordinates. Both overworld portals work fine going to the corresponding portals in the Nether, however both Nether portals link to the same ground overworld portal. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/kC5DB.png)


title: Is it possible to change the linkage of Nether portals?

text: I have 3 portals that link together, but I want to remove at least the middle one. Edit for clarification: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/M35Rk.png) The portals I created are 1, 4 and 5, the others were spawned by the game as the "other end". I want to remove the link between 5 and 4 and create a link between 5 and (the yet non-existent) 6. The goal is to be able to travel to 5 in the route: 1, 2, 6, 5. I don't really need 3 and 4 now.

title: Fallout new vegas crash with ASUS EAH6850

text: I have an i5 3.2GHZ computer with windows 7 64bit installed. 4GB RAM, dual monitors connected to an ASUS EAH6850 video card. I recently purchased Fallout: new Vegas which installed correctly. But when i start the game it successfully opens the main menu, but when i try to actually play it crashes back to windows, without providing any crash details. I called bethesda softworks and the problem seemed to be my Video card, which is unsupported by the game. I updated my drivers and my card is now recognized as a ATI Radeon. And finally the game works! i can play without it crashing. but every time i start my computer the next day, and start the game again, it crashes in the same manner it used to before i installed the latest drivers!?! And when i reinstall the same drivers again (the latest drivers which i just updated to) the game runs again. does anyone know why i have to reinstall the same drivers everytime i reboot in order to play Fallout? And more importantly, does anyone have a solution?


title: Not always seeing particles in game

text: Recently I've been experiencing weird behaviors while playing League. My ping stays around a normal 80-90ms. Occasionally everything will stop moving then a few seconds later everything will happen all at once. All the while ping is still where it was before. Other times I won't see particles appear from my Champions at all. I won't always see Vayne's Silver Bolt stacks on enemies. And as Draven I won't see the landing spots of my Spinning Axes, or see them going through the air either (which is incredibly frustrating as his damage/kit revolves around keeping them up). Is this something on my end, or is it the fault or the servers? Whichever one it is, is it something that I can fix?


title: Is it possible to change the camera view in the FIFA 12 practice arena?

text: In FIFA 12 (and some previous versions of FIFA) when you first start up the game you can control a player and practice playing against an AI goalie on an otherwise empty warm-up field. This also occurs before each match. My problem with it is that the camera view is always facing the goal, whereas the usual camera view for matches in FIFA is the side-on view from high on the sideline. This means that practising shooting is a little pointless as you will never see the goal like that in a proper match. Is there any way to change the camera view in the practice arena?

It seems like bruiser/carry/dps refer to different types of offensive champions, while support is healing/helping champions, and tank is a defensive (high HP, low offensive) champ.

title: Tyrunt vs Aerodactyl

text: So I just got these two Pokemon and can't decide at all which one I want to keep, they are both just so awesome sniff. So I guess what it would come down to is... which one of these two are stronger? Aerodactyl will eventually get his mega form, which I hear has the highest speed stat out of all the mega Pokemon, while Tyrunt will eventually evolve into Tyrantrum who has the highest defense out of all non-legendary poke. Immediatly... I find myself leaning more towards Tyrantrum since I personally find defense more useful. Also, since we can only mega evolve one Pokemon per battle, I feel that I won't really be using Aerodactyl's mega evolution as much as others on my team such as Charizard or Scizor. So before I bury Areodactyl away in my PC forever, is Tyrantrum the better choice?

title: Minecraft FTB Unleashed - Why won't my ME Basic Import Bus work?

text: fellow mad scientists. I've been playing FTB Unleashed (v1.1.3) for a while now and I recently discovered the Applied Energistics mod. I've also watched Direwolf20's spotlight and a couple other YouTube videos about it and it's looking really awesome. This is my first attempt at an ME network, but I've hit a bit of a snag; I've read on the wiki and seen on YouTube that you can import items from machines using a Basic Import Bus, so I hooked one up to a Macerator in combination with an ME Interface to auto-macerate stuff for me. The crafting/macerating part works fine, but the problem is that the Basic Import Bus doesn't appear to be pulling the items out of the Macerator once they're done. I'm not sure why it's not doing anything, because I've made sure that everything has sufficient power (the network is hooked up to an MFSU powered by a Nuclear Reactor, with transformers in between of course) and everything is connected through ME blocks or ME cables. Could it be the orientation of the Macerator that's messing this up? I've tried rotating it in several directions and connecting the Import Bus to different sides of the Macerator, but that still doesn't do anything. I've also tried restarting the server I'm playing on as well as the client and re-placing the ME blocks and cables multiple times, but that doesn't affect anything either. Here's an **imgur album** of screenshots I took of the network and some machine GUIs. Does anyone have any clue as to why this is happening and how I can get the Import Bus to work? -Soullesswaffle


title: Multiple missiles not being saved to a custom loadout

text: I used to play most of my games with Heat Seekers, Multiple Missiles and Unguided Bombs. After the update, however, some of the planes I had such a custom loadout for lost MMs, only having HSM and UG. Saving a custom loadout with MMs and UGs for this plane only gives UGs, not MMs. I suspect it is because the UGs occupy the pylons that would hold MMs instead of the pylons I set them to (which cannot hold MMs but can hold UGs). This bug is not exclusive to UGs and also happens with other weapons that occupy the same pylons. What's particularly annoying is that it happens with Su-37 Terminator, my favorite plane. F35 Lightning does not suffer from that bug and is a capable replacement, but I would like to go back to Su-37. Is there any way to put MMs and UGs on Su-37 and other planes that lost this option after the update?

title: Can I drink myself stupid?

text: One of the notable 'features' of _Fallout:New Vegas_ was the return to the series of 'Low Int Dialog' - that is to say, special dialog options in conversations that reflected the fact that you had rolled a Very Stupid Character. Now, I know the threshhold for Low-Int speech options is generally 3 or lower. What I'm curious about is if I set my Int to 4, (which, among other things, unlocks the Educated and Comprehension perks - quite nice), and then wander around perpetually under the influence of Alcohol (reaping the +1 Str and -1 Int bonus/penalty at all times), giving me an effective Int of 3, will I see these low-int options? Or are the checks tied to _base_ Intelligence, in much the same way that the checks for Perception based perks can be ruined by the '4 Eyes' trait?

It used to be that for just one ON/OFF input, we needed two wires. So why does it not take dozens of wires for the many inputs on a modern gamepad?

title: What's the most efficient method of transferring gold between characters?

text: Aside from tranferring all your gold to a friend who will then tranfer it to your new player, it appears that the only way to transfer gold is by buying items that have a higher sell rate and transferring them to your new account. However, this is just not practical as 1) resell value on items is terrible and 2) you're limited to how much your shared stash can hold. Is there any other way to transfer gold to another account that doesn't involve chesting?

title: How do Vanguards handle Silver and Gold Multiplayer matches?

text: It seems to me that most Vanguards I see are when I occasionally play bronze to level up some of my characters for some N7 Rating. I never see a Vanguard playing in Silver or Gold. I'm curious if they would be any good as it would appear that if they aren't extremely careful they would be demolished by the onslaught of enemies as they charge recklessly into the fray. Anyone have any luck with a certain combo of biotics or a strategy, or maybe some Do's and Don't's, when it comes to harder difficulties? I know there are some die hard Vanguard players who know the advantage Vanguards have in higher difficulties that, for example, an Infiltrator doesn't.

How is the cost at the inn determined?


title: When to use which strategy in Afterwind?

text: I am playing Afterwind quite regularly nowadays and I was wondering when one should use which strategy. For example, if you are surrounded by a lot of other players maybe you should use prefect defense but lack of expansion will mean you will get bankrupt very soon, so maybe Imperialist will be better strategy because it will reduce the cost of all units and let u afford more even though units will have low hit points than usual. Even Gurilla warfare won't be a bad strategy under the circumstance. So what strategy should be used in what situation keeping in mind the number of player surrounding you, starting limit (high or low), and special scenario like WW2 or WW3?

title: How do I start a Single Player/Multi Player game with a custom map in Starcraft II?

text: This may sound a little bit silly, but I can’t seem to find how to do this. Single Player -> Vs. A.I. seems the way for single player, but then I can’t find a way to select my map. I only see a list of blizzard maps. If, on the other hand, I start a multi player, I get all the ladder nonsense. I can create a custom game (or play cooperatively) but then again, the map selector list doesn’t allow me to “move” to a different folder; I can’t find the maps in the starcraft folder either… Any ideas? I’m used to play on a couple of custom maps that I’m porting to SCII, we used to LAN play (lame that that’s not possible anymore), however, I don’t care to use BNET, if I can use my map. I must be doing something wrong… In essence, how do I create a Map and use it in a custom game? Do I have to publish it? (retarded). Thanks.

title: Playing Riki: how to counter a Spirit Breaker with dust?

text: Last game I played **Riki** for the first time (yeah, I know! :D). The opposing team had a smart **Spirit Breaker** who knew how to counter me: **charge with dust** in his pocket. Due to his superior movement speed and bashes he'd win mano a mano. During my deaths as well as after the game I reflected on how to counter this, but came up dry. Some things I considered:   * **Stop ganking** , and either start jungling or try to get my team to go into 5 man dota. This seems silly for a Riki though (to stop ganking).   * **Buy a blink dagger**. Obviously that doesn't work as I'm getting hit all the time.   * **Buy boots of travel** and TP out whenever I feel unsafe and/or after ganks. Seems a waste of money (I already had ability-boots) though.   * **Use diffusal blade on myself when being charged** , hoping this would remove the "charge" debuff. Don't think this was/is working though? Besides: you don't know when you're being ganked. It worked only once to my advantage, to clear the dust debuff, but it seemed tough to pull off.   * **BKB** to withstand the bashes (does that work?) and just go head to head with him. Is there any reliable solution to this situation? Can you counter a Spirit Breaker with dust as a Riki? Note that **this was a pub** (so rigid team coordination to evade the Spirit Breaker is not really an option, I'm really looking at **_what I individually can do_** ), at a skill level of 3.2K'ish MMR.

title: PlayStation 3 looping on update 4.55

text: **Background** : I have a fat PS3 which came with an 80GB HDD. I bought a new 500GB HDD so that I could store more games from PS Plus on it. I followed the official instructions on Sony's website, but encountered something unexpected: it could not find the most updated version of the OS after installing the new HDD. I followed the on-screen instructions and pressed START + SELECT simultaneously to load the PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP file from my SD card. After the PS3 read the update, it seemed to be stuck at 99%. I waited at least an hour, and it was still stuck. Googling this problem, it appears that this is common with update 4.55. Rather than wait even longer, I decided to reboot. The system prompts you to press the PS button on the controller, and then it asks to press START + SELECT again. After that, it installs the system update but gets stuck **again** at 99%. **Question** : How can this fixed?

I can press select to bring up the phone menu but the game appears to carry on (I haven't actually tested this is a battle scenario yet though) I am wondering if maybe this is something to do with the fact I selected to play in PSN network? The thing is though, I selected private and have not invited anybody so I have no chance of another human joining me. If this is because of network mode, can I turn it off mid-game? So far I am just assuming... maybe you just can't pause RE6? (I hope this is not the case though)

I assume this means they can take a little Dust or Research from other civilizations, but how is the amount calculated? Does it change if the Hero is a fleet commander or system administrator? Does the Hero need to be near the borders of another civilization, or orbiting around one of their worlds, or what?


title: Skyrim Fraps Help

text: So I'm running Skyrim on high with AA of and AF on 4 with FXAA on. Everything else is on High. I was running it and and it feels like I'm getting around 40 to 50 FPS, but FRAPS says I'm getting 12... If I open the video in VLC FRAPS, it says I'm getting 40-50. I'm happy with my game performance now (I am used to play minecraft with 10 frames :D), but I would just like to know what's right.


title: Is there a way to measure distance between points in Source engine games?

text: When practicing jumps in Team Fortress 2, I'd really like to be able to measure both the height and length of my jumps, as well as the distance between two points on the map. Is there a way in the Source engine to measure distance? Units are largely irrelevant, so long as it's consistent.


title: How do I use blank Wave Command Cards in Megaman Starforce 2

title: How do I enable Steam at system start?

text: A little bit ago, I was stupid and deleted my Windows (7) registry key for auto starting Steam on login. I foolishly had deleted it, not disabled. Now I'd like it to auto start on login, but I have no way of setting it up to do so. Any thoughts? Should I attempt to reinstall Steam or what?

title: List of Follower conversations with each other (not achievement)

text: > _**Note_** : I am **not** referring to the follower conversations that you > select using 'Talk' for the 3 achievements. Is there a complete list of the various interactions the followers have with each other when they're in town, as well as when they meet their duplicates in Nightmare mode (assuming you took along the right follower). I found some of their banter quite interesting, but I don't want to just hang around in the sidekicks' corner to hear more of it. Also, are there any new convos if all 3 are left together? From what I've observed, it is just any 2 talking back & forth.


Do different weapon types have different reach? e.g. if I use a regular attack with a polearm, will I be able to strike enemies further away than if I use a regular attack with a dagger? And if so, what is the reach range of each weapon? This question is inspired by the behavior in Diablo II as well as the category header for polearms in Diablo III's official game guide: > Any polearm will extend the reach of its wielder’s arms noticeably, allowing > them to fight foes from slightly farther away. I cannot tell, however, if it's just flavor text or has an actual gameplay impact


title: How do I know which clothes are going to be popular?

text: In the game, it sometimes warns you that one of the companies you have clothing from is going to be the next big thing. It tells you to stock up ahead of time so that when they can't keep up with demand, you have enough clothes to last so that your customers leave happy. Problem is, I can't figure out how to predict this, whatsoever. How do I know what clothes are going to be popular?


title: What heirloom weapons should a DPS death knight pick up

text: Exactly as the title states, I am interested in leveling a DPS death knight and wanted to get heirloom for him. I picked up shoulders/chest. Assuming I'll go for a DPS spec, what weapon(s) (if it isn't one 2H weapon?) should I pick up for heirloom?

text: I have a weapon that deals lightning damage and have the skill Bola equipped, does that skill eliminate the lightning damage? I don't see the lightning hitting the enemies like I used to after setting that skill.


title: Should I be looking closely at vendor items at higher difficulties?

text: I've been trained by earlier versions of Diablo to consider vendor items basically worthless once you start finding your own gear. But since I've noticed that a number of players showing their Inferno gear have blue items, it occurs to me that this might be a mistake. Is it possible for vendors to have items that are a high enough level to generate very high stats (like +160 to primary) that would be worthwhile for a higher level character? Or should I continue to ignore them (except in the rare case where they have a yellow for sale)?


title: How do I not get lost underground?

text: I have found a rather large series of underground caverns in Minecraft, and have come close to becoming fatally lost several times. What are some best practices in making sure I get back to familiar territory? I have the compass but since it points to my original respawn point it's not terribly useful. What tactics are employed to make sure you can explore deep caverns and still make it home in one piece?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Tips for not getting lost underground? Once again I find myself lost in the passageways and caverns of a tunnel connected to a mine connected to a ravine connected to another mine.

I'm hoping that someone has a good quick strategy to finding your way home even if you get turned around a bit after an explosion or falling through a hole.

title: How can I get Shadowmere to stop following me?

text: Not exactly the same as this. **EDIT** : The solution to that question involves killing the horse. Shadowmere is immortal. This is not the same question. I have gotten far enough in the Dark Brotherhood that I have been gifted with an immortal horse. The problem is, horses in this game seem more of a burden than a help, especially since Shadowmere seems intent on reporting any crimes he sees me commit. Can I stable him somewhere so that he doesn't follow me around every time I fast travel? Is there any way to get rid of this annoying (and creepy) horse?

title: What is "Medium Armor"?

text: When I join the Legion, I'm able to get some equipment. The Blacksmith asks if I want light, medium or heavy armor. I did not have any good save points nearby so I couldn't reload to find out what the "medium" armor option meant. Obviously light meant light armor, and heavy meant heavy armor, but what equipment do you get if you choose medium?

If not, what's the use of the party then when people are splitted up between zones?


title: What triggers "random" item drops in Dawn of War II?

text: I've noticed that random item drops (ie those not from bosses) during the campaigns in Dawn of War II / Chaos Rising / Retribution seem to usually happen during heavy fighting. My theory is that they're triggered by dishing out a particularly high rate of damage (since I've noticed the drops seem to happen more often when I triggering multiple abilities), but it would be nice to have some confirmation of this. So, is it known exactly what triggers random drops, and if there's anything that can be done to increase the drop rate? Or is there just a random chance of any given kill dropping an item?


title: When does Minecraft decide to start playing gameplay music?

text: I've played mostly with Minecraft's music muted since Alpha, and have just recently started keeping it on while I play. In the latest version (1.10), the subtle gameplay music seems to kick in ten or twenty minutes after starting the game and wandering around above ground. It will play for a while, then go away. Is there any pattern to the gameplay music, or are there any special triggers?


I am trying to farm Star Coins to unlock the Special World levels, and I noticed that sometimes, I get Mystery Boxes that I have already seen.

I am assuming there is a finite number, otherwise I would get a new Star Coin every time.

title: What are the Haste breakpoints for Holy Fire?

text: Glyph of Smite gives a 20% increase to Smites cast on targets burning with Holy Fire. At 0% haste, unglyphed Holy Fire allows 4 Smites. Glyphed Holy Fire only allows 3 smites, because the burn begins at the start of the gcd instead of the end of a cast. At 7.4% haste, I see that holy fire burns for 7.4 seconds, and smite casts in 1.4 seconds. This allows 5 smites during an unglyphed holy fire burn. What are the haste breakpoints which would let Holy Fire (glyphed or not) burn relatively longer, allowing more smiting?


title: When can I get Covetous Shen's conversations for the Everybody Loves Shen achievement?

text: The achievement says to "Listen to all of the Jeweler's conversations." Because Shen's conversations seem to change quite frequently, it seems like it would be easy to miss a lot of these, so I'd like to know when Shen's conversations first become available and if and when they become unavailable. Of special note now is the new Act IV conversation "Victory", introduced in the 1.0.5 patch.

title: Do I have to get "Frozen Asset" before the end of the game?

text: Looking over the description for the Frozen Asset trophy I see there should be 4 side missions. On my Good playthrough I helped the Ice Soldier and...none of the other missions showed up. I haven't completed the rest of the non-Ice Soldier side missions, but I've completed the game and am on Chapter 40: Aftermath. I've never done an evil side mission in this playthrough, yet I don't see any of the other three Blue side missions for this quest and I haven't gotten the trophy. Do I have to get this achievement before the end of the game or are there some other conditions at work?


title: Why has my server stopped working since I've updated it to 1.7.2?

text: My server's been having a lot of problems in 1.6.4. When I finally figured out what the problem was, I fixed my server. That was a day before 1.7.2 came out. When 1.7.2 came out, I updated my vanilla server to 1.7.2 and still no one, but me (localhost) can get on. I've \- checked my firewall settings, \- re-portforwarded, \- Tried the .exe AND .jar server files they have on minecraft.net. What's the problem? and how do I fix it??


title: Can I filter legendary or set items by stats in the Auction House? (fixed in 1.0.4)

text: When I choose a particular legendary (Andariel's Visage), I want to filter these by those which have at least 100 intelligence, is there any way to do that? ![I couldn't filter helms down to just Andariel's Visage because it has Attack Speed % which you can't filter on, because it's not present on regular helm items.  Also shows a screenshot of the auction house search filter with the fields grayed out.](http://i.stack.imgur.com/GVop7.png) UPDATE: As the title says, this behavior was changed in patch 1.04.


title: Playing Steam games on different versions of Windows from same location?

text: I have a dual boot with Window 7 (C:) and Windows 8 (D:). I have a few Call of Duty games on Steam that I want to be able to play on both OS. Would it be possible to have the game installed on another drive (E:) and get Steam on both OS to point to this or would there be compatibility issues between Windows 7 and Windows 8? It is just to save space as two installations is too much. I have tried this Origin and it works so I'm wondering would it be possible with Steam.

title: How can I fix stuttering and lag issues in Deus Ex HR Director's Cut?

text: Just got this game of the sale, looking forward to playing it. Unfortunately, I've received massive stutering and lag issues. I have a pretty amazing gaming rig, as I can run BL2, AC4 at max to high settings with no stutter. So this shouldn't be an issue for me. From what I can tell online, there's also very few solutions out there. One of the options was to edit registry settings, but that doesn't change a thing still. Any way I can optimize the game to remove this "lag"? It's plenty annoying, and the problem doesnt seem to go away even when I lower the settings down to nothing.


title: When activating a Steam download key, do I get to see what it contains first?

text: I've received a complimentary Steam download key from Ubisoft as a compensation for a problem with a different game I have purchased. Unfortunately Ubisoft did not write what the download key contains, they only mention 'unlocking additional content'. I'd like to see what the key contains _before_ actually consuming it. When entering the key into Steam, does Steam tell me what the key contains, or does it just immediately use the activation key without giving me another chance to cancel the process?


title: Broken text encoding in various parts of the Guild Wars 2 UI

text: Since day 1 of playing Guild Wars 2, I've been plagued by a text-encoding issue in various parts of the UI. It seems that anywhere that certain types of punctuation (bullet points, for example) are intended to appear, other characters are rendered instead, such as Ā, Ą, Ē, Ě, etc. I first thought this was due to my operating system's region setting at first, but even though I've changed my region setting back to "English (United States)," the issue still persists. I haven't been able to find any discussion about this issue aside from a single buried thread on the official forums with no replies, so I'm not sure how common this behavior is. Is there a known cause and/or fix for this issue?

title: Does everyone get the same set of Mystery quests for unlocking?

text: Starting at level 36, proceeding ahead needs either a payment, pestering Facebook friends or solving 3 'mystery quests', one per day. The difficulty levels of these seem to be highly inconsistent: I've had one which almost solved itself with a few moves, and recently a far harder one where I was stuck for a couple of days. Are these quests same for all players per check point, or are they randomized on each client? If the latter, is there any way to 'reset' the randomization to receive a set of new quests, if the current ones include some particularly hard level?


title: Will implicit orders be removed if no longer necessary?

text: I was tinkering with a rail junction, and then quickly saw it wasn't working. I fixed my junction, but then I was reviewing a particular train and noticed that it had several '(implicit)' orders; because it had to find a way to its final destination and I had broken the efficient route. My question: Now that I've fixed the junction, will this train (and many others!) continue to follow their very inefficient 'Go To' orders which contain several 'implicit' instances? Or, will the pathfinding system recognize a better method exists and remove the 'implicit' orders? I'm just dreading opening every train's go to orders on that route and verifying them all.

title: Is there a benefit of picking an archetype?

text: I have played through Shadowrun Returns as a Street Samurai and a Mage, but I noticed that most if not all of the archetypes have their stat points spread out and have a few points put in stats useless for them (i.e a Will Power for Street Samurai and Decker, or Strength for Shaman and Mage. I am considering starting as a custom class and allocate the stat point myself. Is there any disadvantages to starting the game this way?


title: Can I still link a Dragonvale park to Facebook after I get the park ID?

text: My son's park is level 32, on a Kindle. He's put a lot of time and effort into his dragons and he loves the game. Long story short, his Kindle is dying. He did not have a FB when we started the park, but I thought it was possible to back up the park with help from Backflip if I found the park "id". So, I clicked the button for Park ID on the settings screen. Now my son is old enough for a Facebook, and we set him up with one and I thought we could use it to save his dragons. Unfortunately, the "connect with Facebook" is no longer an option, or at least the "connect with Facebook" button is now gone, I think because I clicked to get the Park ID. Is there any way I can associate this park with a Facebook? In a day or two his kindle will die completely, and he will lose more than six months' continual effort and a bunch of rare dragons. (And, if you can't ever again associate the park with FB once you get the ID, and you can't use the ID to back anything up or retrieve progress, why do they even have an option to let the user get the ID at all???) Thanks, we're desperate and he's very very sad and worried for the dragons.


title: Do all enemies have Viral forms?

text: I've noticed some enemies (and some "types" of enemies, like the pacman ghosts) will fairly often suffer a viral infection and turn nasty. I've also noticed the opposite; many enemy types, especially big ones, seem to never go under an infection. Are there "infected" versions of all the monsters or just some of them?


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

text: 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:   1. 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   2. 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:   1. You move in to shoot at a far-off enemy... and find out you haven't moved in far enough   2. 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   3. 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.

title: In Minecraft how do you save yourself if you fall in Lava?

text: When mining Glowstone or finding rare areas of Nether Wart, if I fall into the lava how do I save myself from dying?


title: I am about to die in lava. How might I save my inventory?

text: I'm playing the Minecraft Feed the Beast modpack. During a lengthy mining session, I made a dumb mistake and fell into lava (not for the first time). I rage-quit the game before I died, and now I would like to know if there is any way of rescuing my inventory. I know about the `/gamerule` command, but I won't have enough time to enter it before I die. I also do not have a bucket of water with me. Is there a way to disable item drop on death without being ingame? I would prefer if I do not have to use external tools.


title: Pistol vs Wrangler

text: I was wondering which is better for different situations. I used to think that the Wrangler was easily the better choice, until I noticed that the Wrangler is useless without a sentry. Do I go with hacking Wrangler, or do I lose the ability to control my turret in exchange for better self defense?


title: How can I pump items/liquids in Tekkit with IC2's EU without Forestry's Electrical Engine?

text: I have loads of solar panels generating enough power to fill 5 MFEs and I use the energy link to power BC machines but I can't pump items. Well, I can use redstone engines but they're slow. Is there a better way without using Forestry - I want not to have to install new mods.


title: Purchasing a Steam Game in Europe (though I am a US citizen)

text: Ok, I'm hoping this question doesn't get closed with regards to small locale as I'm trying to cover all of Europe with this one :) I am a US citizen currently working on an international assignment in Europe, and I am an avid gamer. Does anybody here know if it is possible to purchase the North American versions of games while in Europe? I notice that the Steam store recognizes that I am over here and everything shows up priced in Euros. Does this also mean I'm getting a localized version of the game as well? If so, any way to circumvent this so that I don't run into any problems when my assignment is complete?


title: How do I turn my NEI on in Minecraft?

text: I have installed NEI onto my minecraft and it was there when i logged off my world but when I went back onto my world my NEI wasn't there. Does anyone know where or what button I press to get my NEI back as I really need it?


title: How do I get a Nidoking with Sheer Force on X and Y?

text: How do I get a NidoKing with sheer force? I know that I must evolve a Nidorano with hustle into a Nidoking, but how do I get one? I have hatched 5 Nidorans and none of them have the right ability.


title: Are Smash TV and/or Total Carnage able to be completed without continuing?

text: I've played the Midway arcade games "Smash TV" and the sequel "Total Carnage" many times both in the arcade and through console emulations/releases. I have beaten both, but not without using dozens of lives. I'm a competent game player, but while both games are challenging, my experience has been that they are "quarter consumers", with gameplay designed specifically to require many "continues" as opposed to rewarding a skilled player. Are (non-tool-assisted) skilled players capable of minimizing continues (or even performing a 1-Credit Clear (1CC)) in Smash TV and Total Carnage, or do these games truly treat the player "unfairly"? I prefer an answer to focus on Total Carnage, since it has been my experience that that game is much more challenging and less forgiving than Smash TV.
