title: In single player in Mario Kart 64, who wins in a tie in points?

text: My friend and I are trying to get all the 150cc Gold Cups in Mario Kart 64. However, we got in a points situation in the last race of the cup where the only way we could get first in points was by getting in first place, Wario placing 2nd or worse, and DK placing 3rd or worse. Even in that situation, it would be a three-way tie for first place. How would the cup be awarded?


title: What happens if I buy a game I already own through Steam a second time?

text: I am debating whether or not to get the Potato Sack (yes, I realize I've been debating for several weeks now) bundle through steam. I already own: Defense Grid: The Awakening, Super Meat Boy, and Audiosurf, all of which are part of the sack pack. What happens if I buy the Potato Sack? Do I get 2nd copies of the three above mentioned games to gift elsewhere? Is the price of the bundle reduced by the games I already have? Do I get nothing special for already owning those 3 games?


title: Give away duplicate steam game

text: I know from this question, that giving away already bought games isn't possible in steam. However, I already own a game (Counter Strike in my case), but want to have the other CS games, too. The cheapest way would be to buy the CS-pack, which includes all CS games, including the game I already have. Is it possible to take the games but one and give the duplicate game to a friend as a gift? Or would I need to pay for a game I already have without any advantage?

title: Is there a console command to quit the game?

text: In almost all FPS games where there's a console, there's a `quit` command that whisks you right out of the game without you having to answer a bunch of yes/no questions. Does Skyrim's PC console have such a command?


title: What are the precise effects of rubies in weapons (why do the tooltips show a range)?

text: I can't quite figure out the tooltip for a ruby when socketed in a weapon. I have a radiant ruby, which according to the in-game tooltip adds `+12-24` damage, but according to the website adds 12 to the minimum damage and 12 to the maximum. When I socket it in a weapon, it seems to indeed add 12 to each: Before: ![unsocketed](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Kjtxa.jpg) After: ![socketed](http://i.stack.imgur.com/8XmjP.jpg) So why does it show `+12-24`? Where did that 24 come from? Under what conditions, if any, will that ruby provide anything else instead of +12/+12?


title: What's the "farm area" in the final mission?

text: One of the challenges in the last mission is to kill the HVTs in the farm area within 3 seconds. What's that mean? I thought that it meant to kill the first two people within three seconds of each other, but I'm pretty sure I did that with my sync shot, and it didn't say I did the challenge. Were those the wrong guys, or is that not what it means by three seconds?

Some parts of the world are shifted around, caves aren't in the right spot, etc. Here's a closer-up view (click to enlarge): ![another screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/hJy72s.png) I've found out that by saving and quitting, sometimes the map is fixed (sometimes it's just messed up in a different way again, like this one: ![one more](http://i.stack.imgur.com/7Nj5O.png) It stays that way until the next time I save and quit, and then it happens again (in an even different way). This has been happening since the update. It's extremely annoying; how can I fix it? **EDIT** : I've noticed that sometimes when scrolling in large map view, the map will mess up in a different way or become fixed. I have not yet found a reliable way of fixing the map, though

text: Okay, so I looked up how to install mods. I want to get the Biomes O Plenty so that it works in minecraft. I did absolutely **everything** the instructions from three different sites told me to do and triple checked to make sure it was done. The thing is, when I run Minecraft, the mod won't work! I have Minecraft version 1.7.10 and the mod I downloaded is for that version of Minecraft. I also have Windows 7. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong, if I'm doing anything wrong. I don't know how to get it so that when I play the game, it will show up with the mod working.

My blacksmithing is around 80, maybe 82ish, and ive tried mining kolskeggr mine and selling the gold ore to pavo but that seems really slow due to the respawn rate of the mine.

title: Getting MW3 Double XP without Mtn Dew or any prestige tokens

text: Today (November 13th, 2011), while playing MW3 on Xbox I noticed I was getting Double XP for most of the day. I know that you can enable it a few different ways, but I didn't do anything special this weekend. This was player XP, so like kill confirmed was giving me 100 score for each tag. While playing, my accounts tag (not sure if thats the right name, but where the emblem, title, and more show up) had a red/orange 'XP' icon in the top right. I didn't do anything that I can think of to enable this. And I haven't done anything special in the game (and I didn't pay for Elite). I was a beta tester for Elite though. I couldn't find anything online stating it was a double XP weekend either. My question is - how are other ways to get Double XP?


title: What strategy can I use to improve my success with my Hammerdin?

text: I changed my build from a Paladin using Zeal and Fanaticism (Zealot) to one using Blessed Hammer and Concentration (Hammerdin). I am presently at Act 5 Quest 3 in Nightmare but I find myself dying frequently while navigating the Crystaline Passage/Frozen River. Certainly the narrow halls are a problem, but opponents which were a minor annoyance with the Zealot built are now a major problem, specifically Ghosts and any mana burn creature. My equipment is not yet tuned to adding faster cast rate (fcr) or mana, but I did add a 20% mana regen ring that is helping. I am trying to use hit and run in the tunnels, but to very limited success. Since I've seen this character wipe out the Chaos Sanctuary with very little effort (but struggle with Diablo) I'm not ready to give up on the build and reroll, but I could use some ideas on getting by. The char is currently 75 on all resists, 1850+ BH damage, 897 def (2k+ with Holy Shield), 745 life, 235 mana. I'm using a Sureshrill Frost Flanged Mace mostly for the "Cannot be Frozen", Spirit RW Akaran Targe and Trang-Oul's Claws. The other items are mostly there for defence bonuses or resists. I'm playing player versus monster only (PVM) on the current ladder.


title: Customized Catch-A-Ride

text: Is there a way to save the settings on any of the Catch-A-Ride stations? I prefer using the rocket launcher as opposed to the machine gun, is there a way to have the Catch-A-Ride station to default Vehicle 1 to be the machine gun option and Vehicle 2 to be the rocket launcher? The interface screen itself is pretty basic and I see no option for it right now. Is there a feature to unlock the ability to save it later on? Is there a way to always apply the same skin to the vehicles as well?


title: In GemCraft Labyrinth what exactly is the stackable immunity rate of Shocking Gems?

text: The blurb for the Shocking Gem says > Shocked targets gain a stackable immunity rate Does this mean that shocked targets start becoming immune to all attacks?

I read in some guides that the Voidling can end up helping the enemy team   * How is it possible?    * What can I do to avoid this?    * Does this problem happens with other "pets", like Annie's Tibbers?

title: How do I stop C2-N2 from attacking?

text: As a Smuggler/Gunslinger, I have no healing ability but my ship droid C2-N2. I do cybertech, so he's very well equipped. Trouble is, C2-N2 will run in and _punch_ opponents drawing aggro to himself. This means he wastes healing on himself and dies. I'd like him to stop that. C2-N2 has no attack spells to turn off. Short of setting him passive, and having to manually cast his healing spells, how can I stop C2-N2 from attacking enemies?

title: Viable Late Game Alternative Barbarian Builds?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Building Barbarian in Inferno Someone recently asked about a barbarian build on inferno. The answer given was very detailed and overall pretty solid advice. I'm curious if there are any Barbarians who are using a different build in inferno than the one stated here: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/a/69553/10991. To summarize the build is :   * Frenzy w/ Triumph   * Revenge w/ Provocation   * Leap w/ Iron Impact   * Ignore Pain w/ Ignorance is Bliss   * Wraith of the Beserker w/ Insanity   * War Cry w/ Impurity Are there any builds out that take a different approach to inferno barbarian ? Or is this the end-all build for Barbarians ? I ask because the devs really emphasized how they wanted people to use different builds, but it's hard to see how someone could survive without frenzy and revenge.


title: How should I build a barbarian as I progress through Inferno?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Building Barbarian in Inferno I have read this very popular barbarian building guide, but I didn't feel it answered this question: What should Barbarians look at changing or building in gear or stats when progressing through Inferno from Act 2 to Act 4? Should there be a change in skills and passives? Should there be even more resist, armour, then str/vit? Or, should focus be on Crit % / Damage with the 1.03 3 minute enrage timer?

title: Is there an attack speed cap?

text: While playing around with some item builds, I managed to reach a little over 2 attacks per second. This was a huge increase from the 1.10 APS staff I had been using, and a TON of fun. But realizing that I am only level 19 and only half of my slots had attack speed bonuses, I am sure it is possible to reach **much** higher levels of attack speed. Is there a maximum attack speed? Or will we see level 60 characters machine- gunning everything in sight (without Rapid Fire)?

title: What does the "-1" mean on an injured soldier after a battle?

text: Occasionally, when a soldier was incapacitated in battle, a -1 will show on their portrait in the after battle screen. What does this number mean?

However, I checked my number of equipment and I'm fairly sure that it did not change from the battle.

title: BUX changes and Issue with Dream job

text: If you place a person into a dream job, you should get a Bux. But when placing new residents into their dream job, it does not give me any Bux. At least starting with the lastest update, I have been having this issue (I believe the Mar 17 update, v. 1.4.1). If I have an empty slot, I do get a BUX If there is an existing person, at times I get BUX and recently not at all. I fill the floors with Level 9 with matching "dream job" residents to the non- resident floor. At times, I will get a level 4 swap with level 9 and I get a BUX but most of the time it won't. Even if I swap a level 9 with another level 9, no BUX After emailing Disney Support, I got some responses: > I'd be happy to explain! > > 1 Bux will be awarded for the first Dream Job given to a Bitizen on a > particular floor.

The other day, I picked the Nerubian Assasin, and when I checked his entry in the guide and started to follow the item order, I couldn't find the third item on the Core Items list. The item functions by storing up charges every time an opponent casts a spell near by, and then you can use these charges to gain health and mana. Additionally, it is the result of mixing other items together in a recipe. I was unable to find that item in particular in a more general item guide. Can anyone identify this item for me?

Finmine wont give out how they set their servers up with mods but they have Mo' Creatures and ComputerCraft and some others. I only found a custom thing needed to play on their server. Is this related to the version I'm running? If i have to downgrade my Minecraft from 1.2.5 this isn't a problem.

title: Stuck on "Starting in 1..." in Crysis 2 demo

Any ideas? **Edit** Looks like this guy is having the same issue, though no answer over there.


title: Killing a heavy-medic pair solo

text: So, suppose that you're starting your favorite server with a couple of friends/strangers/mortal enemies (Basically, the number of people on the server is 4 on 4 or less). Anyway, you've been doing well K/D-wise, maybe even picking up a domination or two when all of a sudden some of your opponents get frustrated and turn to the dark side. They go heavy-medic. Now what? The main counters to such an atrocity are sniper/spy, and both are much less effective when there's only a handful of players on the server (because there's less distractions, enabling the enemies to focus on disrupting the support classes). Since almost nothing will beat that kind of firepower at close range, your only hope is to use hit and run tactics, and try to take out the medic. However, considering that the medic will try to hide behind his 450 health buddy, has his own healing factor, and will likely flee to a health pack given enough time, you'll likely have to try and take him out in one shot. Which will usually leave you shredded by the heavy. And even if you do get close to managing it, the medic uses an uber, and you're foiled anyway. Is there an effective way to dismantle this combo without sinking to their level and using your own cheap tactics? (ie: Your own heavy medic combo, stickybomb trapping a doorframe, etc.)

text: I had gotten a bounty to kill Snitcher in Act 3. When I got to him, I found out that he is actually a HUGE treasure goblin. He acts very much like a normal goblin. You engage him and he picks up his bag and starts running while occasionally dropping gold or loot. I figured he must do something special because he's so giant and his name is in purple (marking him as a unique enemy). As far as I could tell, nothing happened. The loot he dropped wasn't even that great. Is there something I missed? Is there a chance for him to do something different or give a unique item? Is there an achievement? Basically, Is there anything special about him?

title: How do I help the farmer?

title: How is attack calculated in Marvel: War of Heroes?

text: I am using my iPhone to play the trading-card game Marvel: War of Heroes (also available on Android systems). I was wondering how attack boosts were counted towards overall attack power? Example: Assume first attack (no scrapper bonus) My deck is a full speed deck. My deck has 51200 base attack. (rounded to make the rest of the example more simple) I get an adapter boost of 3% (new attack = 52736) Does my Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (20% buff to speeds) now calculate its boost off of my base deck attack (51200) or my attack post-adapter-boost (52736)? I am trying to craft my deck to be the most efficient possible and I find this hole in my understanding of the game is causing a lack of confidence in decision making in my trades.


title: Why would I want my satellites to be 'stealthy'?

text: I'm part way through my first playthrough of XCom on Normal difficulty and have unlocked the Foundry project for 'Stealth Satellites'. The description text says something about it making satellites harder for enemy UFOs to detect. Why is that a good thing? I have interceptors over the continents where I have satellites and if a UFO comes I can normally shoot it down and get a UFO mission, which tend to provide benefits without the costs of abduction missions for example. This question is almost the opposite of What is the point of using interceptors to attack UFOs? Anyone do this project and get a benefit from it? Answers without spoilers preferred...

title: Moving minecraft mods from old Mac to new Mac

text: I have an old Macbook with Minecraft 1.5.2.   I have several dozen mods I use daily. I just got a new Macbook Pro and downloaded the Minecraft app. It works fine. But I need my mods. So I went to the old Mac's Library- Application Support- Minecraft folder and copied it all to an external drive. I then loaded all those files from the external drive to the same location on the new Macbook. But when I run Minecraft the mods do not work. When I moved the files from the desktop of the new Mac to the Application Support folder, the error box said Application Support cannot be modified. So I went to the folder permissions and changed them to Read and Write. The files are now able to be moved, but are still not working. What did I do wrong?


title: Where is the "impossible space" in Portal 2?

text: One of the commentary nodes by a _Portal 2_ developer, Eric Tams, said they used "world portals" to quickly reconfigure maps and puzzles during testing, which allowed them to create rooms that were bigger on the inside, infinite falls, and other sorts of impossible geometry, save for the users own ASHPD space bending. > When we started the project, making any big structural change in a level or > the order of levels would lead to hours or even days of busy work trying to > reconnect things and make sure they lined up again.

title: Why do people do the Doran's Blade stacking?

text: Why do people buy this item over and over? I usually play as AP Nuker or CC, and so I have no use for it, but in the last game I played Caitlyn. I got **one Doran's Blade** at the beginning, just to get some health, that 10 Damage that can help, and that 3% that I can barely notice. What I noticed is that if the enemy tries to kill me, I can't use lifesteal to heal myself nor can I use potions in the early game to survive. Now I see people buying more Doran's Blades; is it really worth it? Would it be better to start with a Vampiric Scepter, play maybe a little more defensively, and save the money for the boots and for an Infinity Edge, for example? So let's see: 2 Doran's Blades are worth 950g, and they give you +160 Health, +20 Damage and 10 life per attack. I see people buying 3 of them, but I usually buy 2 of them. I would rather buy a **Vampiric Scepter** (800g) and a **Ruby Crystal** (475g) and if I wait 10s I can even buy a **Healing Potion** (35g). I know I get a little less damage, but what I noticed this way is that you can stay longer in the lane and if you are skilled with a Champion you can still get those last hits. And another thing I find useful: With my items I can build something later (Vampiric Scepter -> Bloodthirster). With the Doran's Blade I have to sell them later, and it results in **another cost loss**. What are your thoughts on this?

title: Can I save my fortress with a wall?

text: (Move to the **TL;DR** section if you don't care about the context.) So I was digging too deep when I found some giant cave spider. I think I was bothering it, since it proceeded to decimate my fledgling military. Once I had managed to calm it down, er, permanently, the tunnel revealed another welcome guest; a forgotten beast. This monster, which apparently took the appearance of a giant grasshopper made of iron and with five or so mouths, then tore right through a door blocking off the mines in my fortress from the rest of the place. Now, what remains of my military is fighting the beast, but I am sensing their inevitable failure. Thus, I need to enact Operation: Grasshopper Blocker, which consists of me building a wall. However, remembering that the grasshopper could destroy doors, and knowing that giant cave spiders (which I'm sure there are more down there) are building destroyers, I am uncertain whether or not my wall would be enough. **TL;DR** Are constructed walls (wooden and other) safe from building destroyers? Followup question: is it possible to cause a cave-in that will permanently close a passage?


title: When should I pick Surge, and when Promote, in Dominon?

text: Often, when playing supports in Dominion, like Lux or Janna, I like picking Ghost, then a spell that will help the team (directly or indirectly) as opposed to just me. In many guides I have read, people insist that Garrison is not as useful as other spells I could pick. What parameters should I consider when trying to pick between Surge and Promote? Is it better to pick Surge as a carry, or is Promote equally viable? What should I pick when playing support? Should I go for something else entirely?

title: My housecarls won't stay dressed!

text: 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?


title: Followers don't stay dressed in Skyrim

text: Im on Xbox, for any follower I have, Housecarl, Steward, no matter what I give them, they don't stay dressed, I made Uthgerd my house steward, and she wear's steel plate armor, so I give her Daedric armor, and they put it on for the moment, I let her leave my service, she still has it on, but whenever I leave the room, it seems something about a loading screen makers her go back to her other armor, and she doesn't put her better Daedric armor back on until I trade with her and take something or add something random to her inventory, then it "Refreshes" I guess you could say. I've been spending forever crafting Daedric and Dragon armor for my Housecarls and Stewards because I want awesome guards patrolling my house, but the fact they wont wear it once I leave, kinda ruins all my efforts, and is a complete waste of all the materials I've spent. Any weapon I give them stays on them, and they use it, I've even pick pocketed their default armor and it end up coming right back into their inventory.

title: FIFA 12: Ultimate team frustration

text: I've been having some problems winning games lately. I still remember the time when I had a really good team that I had built up from the ground with very little money; I used to win 5:0 and I even won against a guy who had 2 informs in his possession. As I got on with my bronze team, things started getting tougher... Now I have GIANT difficulties winning against another guy's starter pack with my premium 90 pace bronze team. After a quartet of bitter 3:0 and 2:2 defeats I got really frustrated... My question is: Does the ingame level (I'm level 19) affect the people you are getting matched with? I feel like my level is sky-rocketing although I'm not getting better. If so, How can I reset my level to have my own share of "6:0 N00B P4WN!NG"? As I started playing, I lost 6 games, all 10:0 for my opponent. How did those people, clearly better than me get matched up with me, a noob? Please tell me what I should do. I'm getting dangerously close to throwing the disc out of the window or putting it into the microwave and watching it burn.. :)

title: Why can't I reduce Brazil's neutrality in Hearts of Iron 3: For the Motherland?

text: I'm playing my first game of Hearts of Iron 3, I'm playing as Brazil. I've gotten to the stage where I've figured out enough of the interface, but I now want to try have a war so I can figure out the military system. Since Brazil is a dictatorship, I thought this would be easy, but I can't because my neutrality is too high. So I looked up the Brazil strategy guide on the wiki. It states: > On the domestic front, spies should be used to lower neutrality in order to > allow Brazil to expand and conquer its neighbours. However, it appears not to have been updated since the initial release of Hearts of Iron III. I am playing with the Semper Fi and For The Motherland expansion packs, and that button is simply not there. My options for spies are Counter Intelligence, supporting my ruling party or increasing national unity. And that's it. I know that there is sometimes an option "Lower our Neutrality", but it's just not there in my game. Which means there must be some pre-condition to using this option that I'm not aware of. I've searched the wiki, and there is no reference to any. Since most of the wiki hasn't been updated for For The Motherland, I'm guessing it's to do with the expansion pack. **tl;dr** : What do you need to do before using the lower neutrality option for spies?

title: How do I get rid of Finn's Lute?

text: When I came across Narzulbur, the Orcs there asked me to retrieve some gloves for them from Stony Creek Cave in order to become blood-kin and enter their fortress. I did so, and while clearing out the cave I also came across Finn's Lute. When I tried to put it in a dresser in my house for storage, the game told me I couldn't because it's a quest item. After searching online I found that it is required to finish a quest given by Inge Six Fingers, in the Bard's College in Solitude. I've already finished the quest to gain entry to the Bard's College, so I went there and talked to her. She gave me the quest reward (quite a few skill increases), however the lute is still in my inventory (probably because I didn't have the quest before getting it). So how can I get rid of Finn's Lute from my inventory, since the game won't let me drop it due to it being a quest item? I tried talking to her multiple times, but each time she acts like I finished the quest (I only got the skill increases the first time, though).

title: Skyrim "Arniel summon spell" issue

text: I finished Arniel's Endeavors and got "Summon Arniel's Shade". But there seems to be something wrong with it. It's just too good. It costs me 0 magicka and he does not seem to have any health. If I encounter a enemy that is too dangerous, I just let him loose and he battles the enemy for 60 seconds. Then, I can let him go again at no cost. Is this a known issue? It almost feels like cheating using him. And is the quest over, or am I suppose to use him later in the game?

title: Does having your knife out make you move faster? If not, what does?

text: **Do you run faster with your knife out?** [I have tried to test this, but to no avail.] I am aware you can get a small boost by jumping while running. I am also aware having the sprint perk increases your speed. I am looking for some documentation / proof that you actually do run faster with your knife out as appose to holding any other weapon and/or that the sprint perk is the only perk to stack with other squad members if they have the perk as well. I heard through the 'grape-vine' that the squad-leader should have the sprint perk as the owner of the sprint perk gains a greater % of sprint speed than others in the squad and then squad members can just spawn on the squad leader once he/she reaches the objective. (I.E. = Squad leader gains 30% sprint increase for owning the perk, while everyone else gains 15% sprint increase - falsified data, just an example) This actually matters on Metro, when it is a sprint to objective B. ![bf3 knife](http://i.stack.imgur.com/3mrgX.png) **EDIT:** I am still looking for proof. Everything I have found has been inconclusive / speculation. I do not want links of mere claims, Either from DICE or a reputable source! I have already tried contacting EA via twitter - but yet to gain a reply.


title: Delete / Un-assign Group numbers to units in Supreme Commander 2

text: While I love the fact that I can assign more than one group # (using CTRL + *number *to a particular unit or combination of units), I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to un-assign, or delete that group designation, from a unit. And it drives me crazy. Also, on the flip side, if anyone knows what secret combination of actions will let me change the group designation number without adding an additional group designation, that would be pretty cool as well. Say if I wanted to change my WASPS from group 1 to group 3. I couldn't find anything in the settings on how to do this, any help would be appreciated.

text: I did the Restoration Loop exploit to get an item that increases my carry weight by like 2147455654646 points, and ever since I did that and took off my Fortify Alchemy gear, all of my potions are really, really bad. Before I did this, I could make Invisibility potions that lasted for 39 seconds, and now I can only make ones that last for 4 seconds. I'm on the PS3, but I could easily convert my save to PC format, and use console commands. How can I fix this?

Making a separate category would be a possible work around, but I already categorize my games so this would be far from optimal.

title: FreeOrion ship production variables

text: I'm playing FreeOrion (a free 4x game based on Master of Orion), and when I put a ship in the production queue, there are two drop-downs at the top-left which both affect the total number of ships that get built. But, I don't understand the difference between the two options: ![A production queue with the first option selected](http://i.stack.imgur.com/CcNkE.png) You can see that I can choose 1, 2,3,4,5,10,20,50, or 99; and choosing 2 ends up creating two ships. But, the other option right beside it also changes the number of ships built, but it seems like choosing that one is slower. My Question: What are the the two options changing, besides just # of ships produced?

title: Any benefit to setting CPU affinity for a game?

text: Would there be any possible benefit in setting the CPU affinity for a game? Like Starcraft 2, for example. I've heard suggestions to do this, such as choosing real cores only (no hyperthreaded cores), choosing cores of a certain number, choosing "matching" cores, etc., and that there's benefit to be had in doing this. But like many tips and tweaks on the interwebz, I'm wondering if this is just some digi-voodoo, or if there are actual benefits to be had (performance, stability, stutters) -- even if just potential.

title: How do I earn the "An Extraordinary Man" achievement?

text: The "An Extraordinary Man" achievement requires you complete the Homestead challenge "Encyclopedia of the Common Man." I can't figure out how to do it though. The instructions that briefly came up told me something about using left-trigger but I don't know what to do beyond that. I just sit there targeting one of my citizens and starring at them like some sort of weirdo. How do I correctly do this?

text: If I have enchanted my armour with 100% resistance to both fire and frost and encounter a dragon that uses the aforementioned elements, will said dragon be able to notice it's shout attack is not affecting me and resort to melee, or will it shout regardless of the fact that it is not doing damage?


title: Smiley Badge effect and implications

text: In Bravely Default, one of the accessories you can buy (unlocked via Norende reconstruction) is the Smiley Badge. The item states that it's effect is: > A friendly badge that freezes your aggro level. This leads me to a few questions then:   1. What is the 'default' aggro level of a character? By wearing this badge will you never or only rarely be targeted?   2. If you wear the badge, and then use the pirate taunt skill or the ninja's detaunt skill, does it negate the effects? Or will your threat go up/down and then lock in at the new level?   3. Are there true threat mechanics in Bravely Default? I know there's a taunt skill (Pirate) and a threat deduction (Ninja) but do you earn aggro by attacking/healing? Does this mean that the more damage a character does, the more likely they'll be targeted? How does the threat system work?

title: Stuck at chapter 5 on PC

text: I'm on chapter 5 and have run into a glitch I think. The first thing you should do is targeting a billboard with your `Forcespammer` but I can't do that. `Nilin` just streches her arm out and pulls it back instantly as if there is nothing to target there at all. I've watched a walkthrough video and I'm standing at the same spot but it doesn't work for me. I've tried both reloading and restarting the game. Anybody knows what to do?


title: Help! I got lost in Nether!

text: No, actually I didn't, but that was a close call and I'm really curious how would one go about that one. On my third or fourth visit to the Nether, I still didn't realize the risk, and didn't place marks that would help me get back to the origin (currently I like to use flint and iron to create big flaming arrows towards the exit, visible from afar.) I wandered past one hill, and then I couldn't locate the place I came from. I wisened up and started placing marks in form of torches, towers of netherrack with glowstones on top etc. The bunch of wood I had in my stash has proven invaluable as I ran out of steaks, and had to craft a bowl and start making mushroom soup. I realized the fastest way back would be to simply die, but since I had no clue where I was, that would mean losing my quite precious equipment, which cost me a lot of time and effort to gather and enchant, for that trip specifically. I also knew I had traveled rather far from the portal before starting placing marks, so the chances of finding it again by going in any random direction were rather slim. By sheer luck I found one of the caverns I had explored before, and found my way back, but that was really a close call and I'd prefer to know any hints what to do in Nether if you're already lost (no Obsidian to build a new portal, not willing to die and forgot the direction to the exit.)


title: Flooded Vault - lamp stuck in the raft; can't get out

When I got back in, the lamp was stuck in the raft: ![screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/bohdI.jpg) I've tried everything to get it out but nothing seems to work. The reason I went out was because I didn't know where to go. Do I have to go though the tomb or isn't it the right way?


title: Does +1 to Gem level increase Mana cost

text: Does adding a corresponding coloured gem to an item that has +1 Level to x type gem increase it's level and mana costs accordingly? For example: If I have a weapon with +1 to strength gems and I add a cleave (lvl 5) gem will I incur the mana increase as if I'd levelled it from 5-6?


title: How would you know if you maxed out EVs on one stat or for all?

text: I already know that the max EV points a pokemon gets is 510, and that the max for a stat is 252 so you get 252 for 2 stats and 6 on another. Question is, how do I know if I maxed out a stat already?(Im using emerald by the way) so does the Ribbon girl give you a ribbon if you have 510 or if one of your stats as 255? How do I know when to EV train the other stat?


When Ezzio is fighting and has no weapon equiped, he can get the guards' weapon with the "steal" command (square at PS3). With some type of guards this always works, but with other types (like heavy armored guards) always fail. In that case, every time I try, Ezzio tries to take the weapon but the guard defends and counter with a kick. How do I get the weapon of the heavy armored guards?

title: How can the taint spread?

text: I spawned near a huge section of taint, and I'm fairly sure it's spreading. My panicking in the Minecraft chat room turned up the suggestion of turning off the spreading in the config file, so I dug out Thaumcraft.cfg, and found this:               # The chance per block update (1 in n) of the Taint biome spreading.      # Setting it to 0 prevents the spread of Taint biomes.     I:biome_taint_spread=0      So...it seems like it's _not_ spreading? Now, either I'm going crazy or there's something else causing it to spread. Could Tainticles and the like (tainted spiders, creepers, etc) cause it to be spreading? In what ways can the taint spread?

title: Making dwarves wear armor and wield a weapon?

text: I can't get my soldier dwarves to wear proper armor and use actual weapons. Here is what I have done:   * I have assigned dwarves to be part of a squad, and defaulted their armor to 'metal'.   * I click `e` for **equip**   * For each soldier in the squad, I delete ' **indiv choice melee** ', change to `w` for **weapon** , and then I pick 'battle axe'   * My weaponsmith has forged iron breastplates and iron battle axes. I do all this and nothing happens. Looking at the soldier's inventory, I see that they're still wearing their old clothing (ie, spider silk dress). None of them seem to be wielding the axes either. I thought maybe they didn't' understand, so I went to the military screen, picked a soldier and assigned 'metal breastplate' and 'breastplate'. This did not change a single thing. I'm not sure if this matterss, but I noticed on the top of the equip screen there is the text: **r: Over Clthng** How do I get my soldiers to be properly equipped?

title: How do I progress in the "Mori Mountain Estate" mod?

text: Before I say anything, here is a link to the mod that I am referencing: http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=mods.detail&id=275 So, there's this mod called "Mori Mountain Estate". It is, in essence, a HUGE housing mod in Balmora. It has a self organizing/selfstacking library, lots of secrets hidden throughout, and, a HUGE dungeon with strange things underneath it. Firstly, you need to be like level 50 and a Master of Alchemy to even hope to crack it's depths effectively. It's full of OP equipment, and absurdly powerful monsters both unique and familiar, many of them stronger and more numerous than anything in the main game. Each 'boss' unique monster drops a key, or at least most do. The final one as far as I can tell is a Spriggan looking witch thing that does an unholy shit ton of fire damage, and an extremely cryptic and creepy unique book (from the mod) referencing the fate of the one who made the estate. The book is found near her 'cage'. There is a sarcophagus, you will notice, before the dungeon even begins, and 'seals' that I ASSUME have something to do with the keys somehow, but I can't figure any of it out. The dungeon ends HELLA abruptly, and I feel like there is something I am MISSING. Something else that can be done that references the (5, I think. The number of unique bosses on the mod) seals outside the sarcophagus. There are tons of books that the man, "Zureel", in the nearby tavern in Balmora who sells you the house also sells, that have lots of lore from Hammerfell and on the house in particular. I have tried contacting the maker of the mod, but to no avail. I have no idea what is farther on in the 'questline' of this mod. I don't care how you do it. Through hacks, cheats, looking at code like some of you smarty pantses know how. I really gotta know what I'm supposed to do/what else is in the mod. I've had the idea that perhaps one could look at characters/models/references that the mod creates in the actual mod files. Find the ones that aren't Zureel/any of the bosses/find any triggers or dialogues associated with them, equipment drops/etc.... but I don't know how to do that shit, though. I dunno. You guys figure it out. :) I just REALLY wanna know. It's been eating at me for like a year.

title: Is there any point to helping the rabbit?

text: In _Brothers_ you come across a bunch of Rabbits at one point. All of them are black, only one white one is between them. He obviously is an outcast because of his color (subtext, anyone?), but you can help him if you dip him into the ashes of a campfire to make him black like the others. I did this and it appears this has nothing to do with progressing. There is a bridge nearby where you have to solve a different puzzle (involving carrying sheep, heh) to go on. **So is there some point to this "puzzle" with the rabbits?** Is it just for fun? Or does it influence the game in any way or provide some other benefit (unlock something, I don't know). It just seems a bit odd, because I just finished the game and there did not seem to be any other subquest like this. Of course it's possible that I just missed them. PS: I find the moral of this puzzle rather dubious: You have to make the rabbit like all the others so that he can be happy. Pretend to be something he isn't. What advice is that supposed to give me? ;)

title: Is it bad to stretch your resolution?

text: I have an NVIDIA 130M card on my laptop, and with a typical widescreen monitor. I play a few games on my laptop, and some of them run in a non- widescreen resolution, such as 800x600 for example. My graphics card has an option to allow the display to stretch the game's resolution if it's in full screen to widescreen. Now, it looks fine and runs fine, seemingly no frames are lost and it looks as if the game ran in widescreen natively (albeit slightly blurry, but it doesn't detract from the quality). My question is, does this cost extra processing power, or generate more heat, or put strain on the graphics card? Will playing in this manner cause any ill effects to my machine?


Is it possible to run RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 in windowed mode? I have Windows 7 and the game works, but since my resolution is bigger than the game can handle, I would prefer to play in windowed mode instead of having the game scale. So is it possible? And how can I activate it?

In the presence of watchmen I cannot break the door or dig the wall of the room. I could dig a hole in the floor to go down, but then I would have to leave my kitten in the town. How can I go down from the town with my pet?


title: Can I increase the speed of combat?

text: XCOM Enemy Unknown is a beautiful game, but you can only see every 5 second animation so many times before it becomes repetitive and self-indulgent. Is there a way to make the animations go faster or speed combat up in some other way, so that I can spend more time strategically exterminating aliens and less time watching my operatives shoot their guns?


title: Old Knight Greatshield hidden passive?

text: I was fooling around on dark souls 2 last night and I read the description of the Old Knight Greatshield which states: **_An undated ancient greatshield_** **_Wielded by a warrior from a time so ancient that there exists no record of his endeavors. Has extremely low durability._** **_Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces, it unleashes its last flash of great power..._** I noticed the part where it says " _Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces, it unleashes its last flash of great power..._ " and that made me wonder if there was some sort of passive when you break the shield. I went out and took it down to zero durability about 5 times with no result. So is there actually a hidden passive for it, or is From just yanking my chain?


title: WoW Profession bonuses

text: I would like to know what the bonuses are for the professions in WoW. For example, the gems with extra large stats that only the Jewelcrafter himself can use, or the bonus sockets you can put on your own gear as a Blacksmith. What are the bonuses for the other professions?

title: How does corruption spread?

text: I've tried to make an artificial Corruption biome in Terraria for two purposes:   * Farming mobs;   * Getting a lot of Vile Mushrooms; But I want to do it accurately and limit the size of the corrupted area. So I'm stuck with the following problems:   * Will Ebonstone make blocks of dirt in contact with it corrupted, if I place them in such way?   * Does Corruption spread through Corrupted grass and Thorns?   * How big or long may corrupted Thorns be?


title: Do culture points 'roll over' if you opt out of adopting a new policy?

text: When asked to adopt a social policy, you can right click to opt out. If you do this, do you lose those cultural points, or do they roll over until your next cultural advancement? I don't like any of the currently available social policies, but I have been asked to choose a new policy twice.


title: What changes between rookie and pro in DiRT 2?

text: Obviously the AI drivers are more skilled and the tracks are more difficult, but is there anything else? I ask because I swear the handling of my cars has changed. (I play with all aides on as I have a wheel but no pedals.) I should also add that I'm not at all familiar with rallying.


title: Veronica won't walk around with me anymore

text: After I get out of the Hidden Valley bunker after trying to convince the elder and kill the four Brotherhood of Steel people waiting for me and Veronica there, Veronica just stands where she was when the fight ended. I have tried telling her to wait and then to follow. That didn't work. I also tried dismissing her and finding her again. That didn't work either. What can I do?
