How to set SETA to not abort on keypress?

In contrast to this question I simply want to be able to e.g. open the sector map via `.`. However, pressing any key results in killing SETA. In contrast, using the mouse I _can_ open the map without stopping SETA, but using shortcuts is more comfortable of course, so can this behaviour be changed?


What does FRB stand for in StarCraft?

Would someone be so kind as to explain what exactly FRB mean in StarCraft? Is it a mod?


Do Zircon gems help with fishing for rare items?

While playing Fate, I am wondering if using Zircon gems (Increases chance of finding magical items) effect fishing in any way. I have two weapons with 3 Superior Zircon gems each, and I don't see a noticeable difference in finding rare items. Does the item it's on affect it at all? For example, since you use a fishing pole to fish and your weapons disappear on the character.


How should Protoss respond to a Zerg expanding a lot?

About an hour ago, I had a game against a Zerg player. We were both in high silver. When I play against a Zerg, I go FFE almost every single time, and it tends to work out pretty good. The downside to a FFE build is that it does not allow me to put up much pressure, at least early on, so the Zerg has free picks at the map for quite a while. That is what happened that game. Normally, if I see someone grabbing a third quickly, I roll in and take it out because their army usually is not very strong. The thing is, this Zerg made almost entirely Roaches (sprinkled in some Zerglings) and set up many many Spine Crawlers (like 6 - 10 per expo). When I realized the severity of the situation -- it was 1 expansion vs 4 -- I tried to roll in with a pretty good army to the expansion closest to me, but farthest away from him. I had some Immortals for the Roaches, I had some Zealots for meat shields, and I even had some Archons for support fire. I figured it would be enough to snipe an expansion and the Zerg would rethink his/her intent, but my Zealots were thinned out by the Spines in a couple seconds, and the Immortals + Archons fell to the Roaches really quick without having any Zealots tanking damage. The game kept getting worse and worse because I could not penetrate at all into the Zerg. I got Psi Storm, but that did not help as much as I would have liked to against the Roaches. I suppose a good response would have been Void Rays, because the Zerg opponent had literally no anti-air besides a couple Spore Crawlers (here and there) and queens. I was reluctant to switch to air because I invested so much into the templars. Eventually, I knew I was way too behind to make a comeback so I just left. Has anybody experienced a Zerg play like that? It is really a pretty darn scary and overwhelming style that can be very hard to stop. Can anybody give me some advice on how to deal with a situation like this? Thanks!


Are there any differences between Okami and Okami HD apart of the graphics?

Okami is now reborn in High Definition for PS3 - best game I've ever played on PS2 is now the best game I've ever played on PS3. The graphics is obviously better, sharper and yet preserves the gist of the original game, however I can swear some of the texts have changed as well. My PS2 console is no longer available to me so can't test myself; can anyone here find any official sources whether there are any changes to the game (apart graphics) or not?


How is magic damage calculated in Infinity Blade 2?

Let x be the power of the ring (ice 4) for example, and y be your magic. What's the damage, and how long does it take for magic to recharge?


Why isn't my buffer working?

I'm sorting items into barrels. Since items are coming from BC pipes, sometimes two barrels would be allocated the same thing, so I put in a buffer, however the whole thing has stopped flowing. Before there was just pneumatic pipe where the buffer was. What have I done wrong? ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/RhBMp.png) Inputs are the BC pipes. They feed into a relay, which outputs to pneumatic. This then feeds through a buffer (to collect up stacks) and then out the pneumatic and to my barrels.


What do the items for the pet do?

In the updates to the items available for pets added in and around the _Toddler Time_ update, the following items were added:   * **food and water dishes**   * **Frisbee**   * **toy lobster**   * **toy bone**   * **Dog House** **What do these items do?** Most of these items cost ridiculous amounts of lifestyle points (200?! 250?!! Shy of cheating/exploits or paying money, these goals would take most any free player 1+ months of playing or some very good luck with the dog.) and before I am willing to invest in them, like any reasonable individual, I'd like to know if they actually do anything at all. The only difference I've seen with the food and water bowl that I've usually kept topped up is that the dog seems to defecate on the lawn now. Do the dogs dig up more money or LP or something? I haven't noticed a difference from the food/water dishes - am I doing it wrong or just unlucky/unobservant?


How to know if attack speed works on Legendary items listed in AH?

Some Legendary items in Diablo 3, like for example Inna's Glory, are bugged. They declare to have **Attack Speed** , but in reality bonus is not working when equipped. I just read the changelog of patch 1.03 and it seems they have fixed this bug, but only for new dropped items. >   * Legendary items with the +Attack Speed bonus will now correctly provide > a bonus to attack speed - _Please note that this fix will only affect new > Legendary drops. Existing Legendary items will be addressed in future > patch._ > In the meanwhile Blizzard develop a retroactive fix for bugged items, if I want to buy any Legendary item in Auction House, how can I understand if the item listed is new (AS working as intended) or old (AS not working)?


In the Undercover heist, what's the best way to use the planks?

In this heist (shipped with the Wolfpack DLC), you can use planks to barricade the windows and the vents. ![Using planks in Undercover heist](http://i.stack.imgur.com/k6bxy.jpg) Since the cops (especially the snipers, pretty dangereous in this heist) can blow the barricades on windows in only a few shots, leaving you exposed, does anyone know if there's something useful to make of these planks? Also, how long will the barricaded vents hold ? Is it more interesting to condamn all the vents rather than the "key" windows (for instance, those in the server room, or the ones covering your way out on the roof, at the end of the heist) ?


Are Endermen afraid of certain enchantments?

I'm trying to play a round of EnderBall with some friends (you become the ball and try to shoot yourself into 'buckets'), but I'm having a devil of a time getting any Ender pearls. I'm finding Endermen, but as soon as I attack them, they either teleport away and don't come back, or don't drop anything when I kill them. I've been using a diamond sword with knockback, looting and sharpness, as well as another one with just fire aspect. Also tried using a steel sword, which just has sharpness. The thing is, once in a while I do manage to get one, but only after killing dozens of them. Are there certain enchantments that cause Endermen to decide not to engage? Does looting not up your chances of them dropping an Ender pearl? I've tried using swords that aren't enchanted, but encountering Endermen is somewhat sporadic and difficult to test if it's just random behavior or the enchantments. Behavior seems consistent with or without mods loaded, but again - hard to tell because they aren't as likely to spawn as others. I seem to remember them both dropping and engaging much more frequently, prior to managing to get better stuff.

How can a barbarian deal with the elite affixes?

When I was levelling my demon hunter I was able to use vault to quickly get away from an area where damage was happening or smoke screen to break freezes and jailer cages. I've had some difficulty with arcane, jailer, frozen as they can really stack up quickly. I do use ignore pain to great effect, but that doesn't help against everything.

How can I remove all spiders in Skyrim?

It is possible to kill 1 spider by clicking while on console ... but I tried to kill all kind of them at once . so i created a batch file like this:               kill 00023aaa          kill 00023aac          kill 00041fb4          kill 00023aab          kill 00023aad          kill 0003a1e0      I placed their base ids but it doesn't work , all i can do is to select them and command kill, or use kill all. is there any way to do that and then disable the corpses?


What tunes can you play from the sound system?

I was checking out my cabin aboard the Normandy when I discovered a wicked sound system just waiting to be cranked to up 11. I flipped on the power switch and a mediocre techno jam streamed out, eliciting a ho-hum reaction from my ears. Leaning in for a closer look, I soon realized that the track, volume, and AM/FM/XYZM radio buttons were all just stickers applied on the front of this so-called "sound system"! With a sigh, I opened up the owner's manual and found it exclusively written in asari, volus, and Chinese. Stupid budget cutbacks! **What music can I play from the sound system in my cabin, and is there a way to choose what song I want to listen to?** ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/AZfAX.jpg)

What does the map choice depends on?

In World of Tanks, There is a number of maps and when you want to play the match making system simply assign you one. It seems to be not totally random. For exemple, when you play tier 1 or 2 tanks, you will often get some maps that you simply _won't_ get at all while playing tier 5 or 6. How does the Match making pick the map you will play on? Is it chosen whit the tank's tiers of the players? Does it depends on the number of artilery or some weird if statements like this? Thanks!

Is there a viable way of completing Ultimate Vault Hunter mode by yourself?

Since the update I've attempted to play the new mode but am not doing so well. I have an assassin specialized mainly into the Cunning tree and partially into the Bloodshed side. With my current build I can't even get passed the W4R-DEN with leads me to believe co-op is almost a necessary requirement to beat this mode. Am I right or do I just need better equipment to do this? Maybe other classes would also be better suited to beating this solo as well?


Skill Training Plans - Ship to ship, or optimized by attribute?

In my alliance there are two accepted types of skill training plans:   1. Aiming for a specific ship or item, getting the required skills to III or IV ( or V if necessary for T2 ) and then hopping immediately onto the next ship or item on the list.   2. Planning out a full year/multiple years of consecutive skill training based on attributes and prerequisites to cover a wide swath of things without training anything in particular ( i.e., training Per/Will for ships/Gunnery/Missiles then Mem/Int for Engineering/Science/Industry/Electronics, then ...). Is one of these inherently better or worse than the other? Are they just two different playstyles? Do they have positives and negatives that are not obvious?

Do Wii U Virtual Console discounts go off purchased games or games that are saved to the Wii system?

I have transferred my Wii information to my Wii U and was wondering if I can delete the Virtual Console games I purchased on my Wii to save space. Or am I required to download the games and keep them on the Wii until they come to the Wii U Virtual Console to receive the discount? Additionally, when getting games from Club Nintendo, can I put the code in and not download the games and still receive the discount later when they arrive onto the Wii U eShop? Meaning, the game is tied to my "account" and the download is not require. Thank you.

How can I create a custom automatic status on Steam?

How to play CS 1.5 online?

What do you have to do to play **Counter-Strike 1.5** online? Valve discontinued WON. Fans created WON2. Is using WON2 the only way to play CS 1.5 online?

MAME OS X - How to activate console mode?

I'd like to be able to change the mode from "Arcade" to "Console" (that enables things like training mode on certain fighting games, etc.). Is there a way to do this on MAME OS X? There's no option in the preferences window, and if you enter the settings of the emulator (`F2`) you can change some of the settings of the game but not enable console mode. I've also read that it has to do with the BIOS it's running. I donwloaded a neogeo.zip (without it games don't even run)... but I don't know how to force MAME OS X to run a particular bios either (I've read that unibios makes the trick but I'm clueless about how to make it work). Thoughts?


How does Slark's autoattacks go trough Pugna's Decrepify?

I've just played a match (62958817) with Pugna which had a enemy Slark. In multiple occasions, when he was about to attack me, I'd use Decrepify (immunity to autoattacks + can't autoattack + 40% more magic damage received) to defend myself, but it seems that either applying it to him or myself is ineffective, if not increasing the damage I take (when applied to me). While reading trough Slark's abilities, I couldn't find any hint of why would his autoattacks be counted as magic damage. His build was constituted by the following items:   * Assault Cuirass   * Power Treads   * Bottle   * Sange and Yasha   * Skull Basher   * Shadow Blade None of these appear to give magic damage in their tooltip. It's also worth noting that while he did cause normal damage, I wasn't affected by Skull Basher at all. How did he bypass that immunity?


Which buildings utilize mined resources?

What are the benefits/consequences when deciding the fate of the Rachni Queen in Mass Effect 3

On the mission 'The Attican Traverse: The Rachni' at the end of the mission you are faced with the decision to either free the Rachni Queen or leave her to the fate of her malevolent offspring. Given the variety of possibilities, dependent upon whether you've imported saves from ME1/ME2, what are the various possible outcomes of this decision? Also, what war assets will be gained or lost as a result? I'm currently playing ME3 with a brand new (non-imported) character and it seems that the past history given to the player by default indicates that you have presumably killed the Rachni queen in past experience.


Will Touchstones be wasted if I touch more than one before death?

How to survive a design hack

I wanted to do a design hack in a beginner's game of AI War. I've done some hacking before to lower the AI threat, but the "expected AI response to hacking" was "Low". So I produced the maximum of all my unit types [about 4 types, 4 levels each], stationed a few cloaked design hackers on the planet and waited. After the necessary 10 minutes [which took about 20 real minutes even when the game was sped up :], there were over 6,000 AI ships attacking me, my ~1300 ships were long dead and it seemed I had no chance of recovering. Often when I was overwhelmed in this game, I loaded a previous position, softened the enemy with an attack [destroying the threatening ships], rebuilding my fleet and then defending against the weakened incoming waves. However I have no idea how to handle them in this case. Can it be done? How?

Which frames are more suited for PvE?

This question may be based on opinion (and if it is close it, I wont be mad), but I was wondering which battleframes are "clearly" designed more for PvE or PvP. For example, the Nighthawk Recon is better designed for PvE due to its AOE abilities and explosive sniper rifle. I was wondering if the same could be said for all the frame types, one is more for PvE while the other is more for PvP.


Can Mass Effect 2 Saves and DLC be used on multiple Xboxes with the same Live Profile?

I have one XBox 360 in my house, and plan to buy a second console for my office (across the country). I'm playing Mass Effect 2 (using Cloud Storage for Saves). I've bought all of the DLC and thus far have done all of my playing on my primary console. I'm trying to determine if I will be able to download all of the DLC to the second XBox and continue to play no matter which location I'm in. Basically I want to be able to continue playing/progressing even as I travel from location to location. I'm fairly confident that my Cloud based saves will work just fine, but it's very hard to pin down the policy on DLC and multiple XBoxes. Obviously I'll be using the same Xbox Live Profile in both locations. Will I have to buy the Cerberus Network for the second Xbox? Will I have to re-buy all of the DLC?


Do any missions force me to get paragon or renegade points?

I know morality does not block off gameplay but I was wondering if doing certain missions automatically earns me either paragon or renegade points. Are there any missions that are impossible to complete nicely and will mean I always earn renegade points for finishing (and vice versa) or will there always be a choice on how to complete it?

Is there a way to reduce or prevent crashing when trading?

I've always had trouble when buying caravan cards. It seems that if I try to buy too many, when I "accept" the transaction, the game will pause, and then crash. I've had some success at getting around this by just buying a few cards at a time, "banking" the transaction, and continuing shopping. On my current playthrough, this crashing is happening at most vendors, and with items other than caravan cards. I've just crashed 6 times in a row at Gun Runners trying to get all the stuff I want, and sell off all the stuff I've collected. I kept trying smaller and smaller lots. Toward the end, I was just buying a couple things at a time, and it still wasn't helping. The last time it crashed, it seems to have corrupted my quick save file, and don't feel like starting over with a dozen trades again. (In fact, at this point, I just don't even feel like playing any more.) Is there any way to fix this, or at least tip the odds back in favor of NOT crashing?

Is there an effective way to increase affection without Pokemon-Amie?

I have heard that having high affection will ultimately pay off, but having to take long breaks to do both Super Training an Pokemon Amie (both have vital bonuses, but take ages to make a difference) gets in the way of me enjoying the game. So, I would like to know whether affection can be gained through actions like using the pokemon in battle, using them in wireless battles (if regular battles don't work), leveling them up, healing them with potions or berries, or something else I haven't even thought of. (Also, are any of these actually effective methods, where affection gained per time spent is better than using Pokemon Amie (like, if it has a marginal increase and takes hours, I wouldn't consider it a viable alternative, but still mention it just in case). Here is a related question, dealing with the bonuses friendship will give: What bonuses are related to friendship?

How do I disable specific mods?

I've been mucking around with the Technic pack and I want to try to play game with only Mystcraft. I don't want to be bothered by managing/avoiding Taint from Thaumcraft nor do I want the multitude of chests I find in cave worlds to be cluttered by items from other mods. I know that I can "disable" some mods by deleting them wholesale from the mods folder, but I'd like the ability to enable at a later time. I realize that there is a "Mod Select" button in the Technic Launcher but that button has been grey since my nana's 13th birthday so I don't expect any help in that direction.


Is the enemy AI in Skirmish mode also limited, like human players, by what they can see or detect with the radar, or do they (like the AI in many other RTS games) see everything the other players do? I'm wondering if I can still use stealth to get by detection by the AI, and if I also need to counter their scouts or radars to prevent them from getting information about my base or unit movement. If yes, what if 'Fog of War' is disabled? Also, will this affect their long range weapons (artillery, missile launchers, etc.)? (Will they only hit what can be seen within their line-of-sight or radar range?) Note: I usually play against Sorian AI, but also sometimes puts the default AI into the mix. Info regarding either AI are welcome. Also, I am playing Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance (expansion), not the first Supreme Commander game. **Is the AI also limited by line-of-sight/fog of war, radar range or stealth?**


Should I play other Hitman games before playing Hitman: Absolution?

So... I just got Hitman: Absolution for PS3. I have started playing a few missions, but I feel like I am missing something. Do I feel like I am missing something because I haven't played the other Hitman games OR of my failure to understand the story due to some other reason? **Should I play the other Hitman games to understand the story?**


What is the difference between "roam" and "maneuver" commands?

When selecting certain units (tanks, for example) there's a "move orders" button at the very bottom of the commands bar on the right-hand side that pops out to choose "Maneuver," Roam," or "Hold Position." I can't tell what these do. EDIT: I tried Move, Attack, Patrol, and Area Patrol with both Maneuver and Roam selected, and didn't see any difference.


Way to manually activate Bioshock on an offline PC?

How to create a religion in Civilization V?

Just got the Gods and Kings expansion and was playing 3 player game with friends. They both made a religion and I was over 1000 in faith and still could not work out how to create a religion or get a Great Prophet. How do you create a religion?


How do I hop these two tables on The Path To Higher Learning?

In Quantum Conundrum, on the level "The Path To Higher Learning", there is a multi-stage puzzle. In the first stage you have only the slow-motion battery available, and there's an area you must get across where you can drop two tables: ![The gap in normal dimension](http://i.stack.imgur.com/yDmvr.jpg) ![Two tables falling in slow dimension](http://i.stack.imgur.com/6QWqm.jpg) I cannot for the life of me figure out how to jump across this gap; the nearer table is always below the far table, and this gap gets larger as they fall. ![The death trap in normal dimension](http://i.stack.imgur.com/aaZDb.jpg) I have tried hundreds of times to jump as SOON as the near table gets low enough to land on, but every time I just smack into the far table when trying to jump to it, as it's already too high above me. I'm using slow motion, naturally. The voice-over is no help, telling you only "Intriguingly tricky!" and "Take a leap of faith! Time is on your side." I've jumped all over this damn puzzle and nothing works. I can tell that I have to solve this puzzle first because 1) He tells you explicitly to avoid one of the other areas until you get the right battery and 2) I clearly need the fluffy battery (which is visible on the other side of this gap where I'm trying to go) in order to solve the other major puzzle area. What am I missing here? Is this jump REALLY so tricky to execute that I could have failed at it hundreds of times? That seems unlikely and seems like uncharacteristically pretty poor design, but I can't for the life of me figure out what else I can do.


Can I log onto an existing Tribes: Ascend account through Steam?

Before Tribes: Ascend was added to Steam, I created an account and bought some items/upgrades. If I download Tribes through Steam, will I be able to log into my existing account or link my Steam account with it, or would I be forced to repurchase the items and upgrades on my Steam account?


How do you fix correct hard drive not found error on PS3?

I upgraded the hard drive of my 60 GB Playstation 3 to a 300 GB one. Everything works great, except for occasionally when you start the PS3 up it will freeze at an error screen saying that the correct hard drive was not found. Sometimes restarting will fix this error, but it seems to only come up at random. How do I get this error message to stop coming up ever again?


Is resource cost adjusted with weapon speed in diablo 3?

Is is now clear that spell damage AND casting speed are both based on weapon damage and speed. Let's take an example: Suppose I have a wizard and I want to calculate how much damage I can do with, say, meteor. For simplicity, let's assume that meteor does 200% weapon damage and costs 60 arcane power.   * Scenario 1: I equip an sword with 100 damage and 1 attack per second. I can cast 1 meteor every second, each dealing 200 damage. I have a total damage output of 200dps for a cost of 60 arcane power per second.   * Scenario 2: I equip a dagger with 50 damage and 2 attacks per second. I can cast 2 meteors every second, each dealing 100 damage. I have a total damage output of 200dps, but now at the cost of 120 arcane power per second. My question is: is arcane power adjusted on the weapon speed? And side question: for channeling spells, will the damage output also be the same? It seems clear to me that if you want to play channeling spells (like disintegration), slow weapons really look better because the arcane cost with a weapon half as fast will be half as much. * * * Edit: I've seen this post: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/4662476854. There are a lot of strong arguments about why wizards should prefer slow weapons.


About opening Hero's gate (Eternal Sonata)

I have beat the game, I got the Hero's crest thing, and entered the portal, beat the final boss and saved over the same save file. Then found out that the Hero's crest opens a gate in the noise dunes. But I can't go back since I saved after beating the final boss. So I though about getting to noise dunes by playing the second playthrough. But I heard you can only open the Hero's Gate during the first playthrough. Does that mean I have to start a new game? Then why do I begin the second playthrough with the Hero Crest item? By the way, what does a second/third/fourth playthrough offer anyway?


Good races/class combination for tank, healer and damage dealer in WoW

I am new to WoW and I invited two friends to play WoW with me and we are going to take the tank, damage dealer and healer roles for partying. However, I thought to be a Tauren paladin and one friend chose Undead mage (my other friend will start playing tomorrow). The problem is that he was born at the other side of the world. How can we choose three **good race/classes combinations** that fulfill the three roles and that **are born close to each other** so we can party since the beginning of the game? I would like to know the combination for both Horde and Alliance.


Can NPC houses have two doors?

In Terraria game, we can build houses for NPCs. They must be at least 8x5 from inside, and surrounded by walls and blocks. It must also have a chair, a table and a door. But... Can it have two doors? Two doors can be convenient, so we can access the house from either side, or even walk past it.


Can you still become Arch-Mage of the Mage's Guild if you kill Trebonius before getting the quest to become Arch-Mage?

Obviously, I would taunt him into attacking me, or use a Frenzy spell on him so I can kill him without being permanently expelled, but will the quest work properly if he's already dead, rendering me unable to give him the letter to become Arch-Mage peacefully, or to challenge him in the arena in Vivec?


What is the window of time I have to buy a month subscription for the sender to get its reward?

My friend sent me yesterday a Scroll of Resurrection for World of Warcraft and I activated it. I was wondering how much time I have to subscribe for a month if I want to be sure he gets his reward. Is it before the end of 7 free days? As pointed in the comments, what I'm really looking for is the window of time I have to buy a month to ensure my friend will have its reward for sending a scroll of resurrection. Thank you.


Will Diablo III beta achievements persist into the retail release?

Has Blizzard mentioned anything about D3 beta achievements and rewards persisting into the retail release? Did they do that for the SC2 beta? I'm digging it but with the prospect of losing my character progress (again -- it is a beta after all) and potentially achievements (again, again) my desire to load it up is waning.


**Is it possible to open a full screen map in battlefield 4 during play (while alive)?** In the bottom left of the screen I see a mini map and looking around I can see the objectives.

NES screen blinking without a game

I just found my Uncle's NES in my Grandma's basement and he said I could have it. When I took it home, plugged it in, and turned on the red light blinked (I understand this is normal), but also the TV screen flashes light green. A game is not inserted, although when a game is inserted it does the same thing, but I do know this is normal and I need to replace the 72 Pin Adaptor. I was just wondering if it would do this with no cartridge inserted? Should it still blink? Thanks!


Did playing Hearthstone during the beta grant any benefits that can't be matched by playing the game later?

Playing Hearthstone during the beta might have granted players more experience as well as more cards to play with. These are both benefits that may be matched by playing more later. However, some games grant beta players exclusive content such as gear or achievements that players get to keep even after the beta. To players that didn't play the beta, this content would then be lost forever. Did playing the Hearthstone beta grant beta players any such content?


How do I train invocations with manual skill allocation?

I'm currently playing a character worshiping Sif Muna, and need invocations to help boost my channel energy ability. However, when I go to the skill menu invocations is not an available option to select for training. I'm using manual skill allocation, playing Stone Soup v. 0.12.1, and have the ability to use channel energy. How can I train invocations?


How exactly does adrenaline affect melee weapons' effect?

It is well known that an adrenaline shot will allow you to strike faster (hence shortens the strike speed). But does it also increase the weapon's damages ?   Since combining adrenaline and a melee weapons allows you to unlock the "Gong Show" achievement, it seems legit to wonder: is it an effect of the speed bonus, damage bonus or both ?


Do the EXP UP and AP UP passives affect just the character or the entire party?

The iOS version of Final Fantasy V has the same bonus classes that the GBA had, among which is the Cannoneer, who can gain the passive ability to earn XP at a faster rate, as well as the Oracle who gets a passive that increases AP gain. My questions: 1. Do these abilities apply to just the character equipping them, or to the whole party? 2. Are these passives granted to the Freelancer and Mime jobs upon mastery of Cannoneer and Oracle?

What is this "Witch" in Candy Box

So, I've been playing this game, Candy Box, for a while now, and I've just recently found this website. While reading the posts, I came across a lot about this "Witch." What is it and how do I find/get it?


What is the maximum number of herb tablets that can be stored in the tablet box?

You can use herbs to create herb tablets that can be stored in the herb tablet box for using to heal your character. I recently found out by mistake I can hold more than the default 6, I upped it to 10. Can I stored more than this? I am a bit cautious about just trying it in case I hit the limit and I lose any tablets as a result of this. Also, does each character have a different limit? If so, it would be good to see numbers for all characters


Which genre fits or works well with which platform?

I occasionally get reviews like:   ![RPG games work well on Playsystem 2.](http://i.stack.imgur.com/5qekZ.png) It seems that each genre has its own popularity on each platform. Choice of genre, relative to platform, affects the review scores. **How do I know which game genre fits or works well with which platform?**


What is the code for the martianbuddy.com cabinet in Doom 3 BFG Edition?

CounterStrike: Global Offensive automatic reload

After holding down the fire button and depleting a clip, the gun will not automatically reload until the fire button is released. Is this behavior by design, or is it a problem with my setup? MOUSE1 is bound to the "Fire" action, and Raw Mouse Input is disabled.

What determines the weapon a spy disguise uses?

I'm trying to learn how to be a better spy, and I notice that my disguise seems to have different weapons at different times. My health also seems to change at times. Does the spy disguise copy the player at that exact moment or is something else going on here?


rb3 mic problem

I had a cinch mic and wanted to play rock band 3 with it. I bought a USB hub and turned it on and, even though the game displays 2 mics entered (that's how much of them I've put in), I lose the game every time I start playing because my voice just isn't there. I did the audio calibration and everything.


Does Borderlands 2 on the PC save locally or in the cloud?

In the first Borderlands, saves were stored locally which people could easily hack and this ruined the online experience for me. Is this still the case for Borderlands 2, or is it all stored online and "unhackable" by the user?


How do I increase the framerate in Duke Nukem Forever?

I have an Nvidia 480 GTX, a video card powerful enough to play games like BioShock 2 with all settings turned up to the max and still deliver super smooth FPS. When I play DNF, though, it has choppy gameplay and terrible framerates. Even with AA turned off, it's still terrible. I googled this issue and it appears that lots of other people are having this problem, but no one has offered any real answers on how to get smoother FPS. So is there an actual solution to this?


Dealing with 4 attack as Priest

I have been playing the Priest hero for some time now, and I try to analyse most of the games played. But one thing that I struggle with in a lot of games, is 4 attack minions on the enemy side of the board. The Priest has a lot of control cards, such and the Shadow Word cards. But none for handling 4 attack minions. This also counts for the card Shadow Madness. **How can I as a Priest, effectively handle enemy minions with an attack of 4?**


How do trench-mounted flak cannons affect enemies?

In Iron Brigade, the Flak emplacements will only attack aerial targets. However, there are some machine guns that have the Flak ability, and their descriptions indicate that they are for anti-air use. Is their effectiveness reduced when attacking ground targets? If so, do they deal 0 damage, or just a reduced percentage? I have been unable to find this information out either in-game or elsewhere on the internet.


Xbox controller disconnecting with full battery

It will keep on disconnecting after about 5 minutes of me reconnecting sometimes less. I have just recently replaced the batteries and it says it has full battery anyway. edit: The time is random as I have seen from playing today. sometimes it will stay connected for an hour sometime 2 minutes. I am not using a rechargeable battery pack, it is a regular xbox controller, it is about a year old now. Also it only seems to disconnect after I start using it. after a while it will be fine. If I leave the controller alone it does not disconnect. It also will disconnect is I move it about to much.


How does the fishing mechanic work?

Terraria 1.2.4 added a fishing mechanic. I have a few questions on how it works exactly:   1. What types of "critters" can be used as bait? So far I've seen that worms, grasshoppers, and fireflies work.   2. What determines whether my bait is consumed? I occasionally catch junk (seaweed, old shoe, etc), and my bait count stays the same. I've even had this happen when I catch a fish.   3. What does the "fishing power" stat for bait and fishing rods control? How often fish are caught? The value of what is caught? Something else?


Planting and farming blinkroot

Is there a way to get infinite gold in Majesty 2: Monster Kingdom

When playing Majesty 2 on steam, I can edit lib files to make extort (Rogue ability) cost -2000 gold, effectively giving me 2000 gold whenever I use the ability. However, in Monster Kingdom, I couldn't figure out what (if any) lib files to edit. Is there any way to cheat and/or get infinite gold on Majesty 2: Monster Kingdom? Thanks.


Who wants the banner of the first regimen?

I picked up that artifact on a planet somewhere. Now there's a mission in my journal saying that I should find someone on the citadel who can use it. I've been running around the place a long time, but I can't seem to find anybody. Who wants the banner?


Archangel's or Manamune on Ryze?

Is either one clearly better to get on Ryze, or are they equal and only situationally better? Archangel's gets the Shield and bonus AP, but Manamune has bonus damage on single target spells (2/3 are single target for ryze) and AD for mixed damage potential.


How do I get an XBox 360 to update games?

I have an XBox 360 that hasn't been connected to a network for about three years. I finally got around to hooking it up today. It downloaded a bunch of updates and I created an XBox Live account (just a standard one, not Gold). However, I can't seem to get it to update any of the games. As in, there's no notification that an update is available, even after starting a game. I know they're not updated because, for example, the radios in Portal don't "receive transmissions" ;) The network setup is a little non-standard: I configured my laptop to bridge the XBox ethernet to the household wireless. But since it downloaded the system updates and confirmed the XBox Live account, I figure that connectivity is not the problem. If it matters, the dashboard version is 2.0.14719.0 How do I prompt the XBox to update my games? How do I tell if a particular game has been updated?


How do I unlock helicopters?

How do I get helicopters for my personal use outside of activities in _Saints Row: The Third_? I've bought the hangar, but I don't see any copters lying around the airport. Do I just need to look around more or complete a specific mission/activity, or level up and buy the Helicopter Homie? And once I've found one, where do I garage them?


What are "additional points" awarded for?

In Battlefield 3, sometimes at the end of a round, after my awards come in, I'll get one last bit of exp that's just called "additional points". It never counts towards any kit or weapon, just my rank. It comes after I receive all of my points for ribbons or unlocks, and it doesn't come in the same batch. It has no picture next to it at all, it just says "Additional Points - +200" I've had it about 4 times now, and every time it's only been 200 extra points. What are these additional points awarded for?


Do challenge rooms spawn specific enemy waves?

I've gone through my share of Binding of Isaac playthroughs, and almost always bother with looting challenge rooms, which in turn has me fighting three waves of enemies. Having done this enough times, some of the waves spawned in the various challenge rooms seem suspiciously repetitive. Is there any sort of randomness to the enemies spawned, or are they, in fact, set?


Error with Double-Dabble decoder

I'm using a Binary to BCD system using this double-dabble decoding device. It all seems pretty good, but it doesn't work properly. If you are unfamiliar with double-dabble, it should take an input, and if it's higher than 4, add 3. I've seen this device used in another video, but this one doesn't work 100% correctly. Even after downloading the schematic and opening it in CircuitSimulator, putting in a 5 gives a 7, not an 8 like expected: ![circuitsim screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/9xUXE.png) Anyone good enough to identify the problem?


DotA: placing mines by Goblin Techies

I am interested in some good strategies of playing by Techies. Mostly, what is the most profitable place for placing mines in the game beginning ? Such places as near the top/bottom shops work rarely because it's the first place where the opponents do **NOT** send their heroes having techies in opposite team. Also I wonder when it's the best time to leave the line and start patrolling over the map and mining. I understand that it of course depends on the concrete game and heroes pick, but I'm interested in opinion of experiences players.   Thanks in advance.

Why can't I unlock the last 6 or so levels on Tiny Death Star?

I have been playing for a while now and I have unlocked all but a few levels. When I go to buy new levels it says no new levels of this type for your amount of progress. I don't know why and I am wondering if it is because I haven't completed many imperial assignments.


How is XP divided when some party members are already level 99?

Sound in Final Fantasy X

According to various sources (like this), FFX features multi-channel audio: Dolby Pro Logic (gameplay) and Dolby Digital 5.1 (movies). I have my PS2 connected to my surround sound receiver via Toslink, which reports that it's receiving digital 2.0-channel (a.k.a., stereo) in the form of 48k PCM, both in the game and during cutscenes. The receiver is a recent one, which claims to support "Dolby Digital Plus, ProLogic IIx" (among many other formats). I'm not up on what all of Dolby's brand names mean -- shouldn't my receiver be capable of decoding the PS2/FFX's Dolby bitstream? Do I need to enable them on the PS2 or in FFX somehow? I don't see any configuration options in the game to do so, only mono/stereo. I know this really won't make any real difference, but I'm curious to see it work! EDIT: I remembered that there are many different versions of PS2. Does it depend on a particular version of the console itself? I saw Dolby support announced from pretty early sources, and FFX is a fairly early game in the PS2's lifetime, so I don't think it should matter, but FWIW I have an SCPH-55000.


Can I back up and restore my FTL save file?

FTL shares many similarities with roguelikes, especially in that you can't save and load your game easily. However, you can save and quit. Sometimes I get into a really good position and then die due to some random bad luck. Occasionally I'd like to experience an event multiple times to see what the outcome is. It would be nice if I could somehow save state and restore later if I choose. Is it possible to back up this save file and restore it later? Where is it stored? Is there anything in particular I would have to do to the file in order for it to be recognized by the game?

Does shooting reveal other friendly positions?

Supposedly shooting "makes bushes invisible in 15m radius" (or so the help says). Does it mean, that if I, as a scout (lots of camo bonuses), sit hidden in a bush, then an ally drives right over and shoots at enemy I spotted, my position would be revealed to enemies, or can I sit safely next to a shooting heavy and wait as slugs fly over my head?


Why do players shift-move units back and forth?

I see players shift-click move their units back and forth all the time in replays online. Why do they do that? Wouldn't a hold position command achieve the same thing?


What is the best early strategy in Fallen Enchantress?

Fallen Enchantress is a 4X game with magic. You start with one guy who founds a city, and try to crush the world under your iron heel (for their own good, of course). As far as I can tell, there's no drawback to building additional cities, aside from "I could have been doing something else." Making more cities means more construction points, more research, more gold, more resources, and less territory available to your opponents. The world is scattered with wild monsters and neutral factions, but they mostly ignore cities. **Is there any reason not to go wild and build as many cities as possible as soon as possible, while mostly ignoring your infrastructure and military until you run out of places to settle?** I ask because the game's tutorials are extremely basic, and I can't tell if there's some mechanism that makes city-spam unproductive (such as how Civilization IV had a "tax" on expansion, and Civilization V used Global Happiness to limit growth). The game limits spacing of cities (legal places to put a city are somewhat few and far between), but doesn't seem to have any limits on how quickly you can found new cities.


How is damage determined in Fallen Enchantress?

Fallen Enchantress gives you basic information about your weapon and armor, summing up your attack rating as "8 cutting," and your defense as a straight number like 24 (though some armor gives extra bonuses against some attacks; chain mail has a bonus against cutting damage, for instance). Unfortunately, the in-game tutorial is pretty useless; it will get you started, but doesn't give any fine details that would help you optimize your play. How does a weapon's attack rating relate to how much damage you do against an unarmored opponent? How does armor affect the damage? Is elemental/magic damage calculated differently, i.e. can you bypass heavy armor by using fire bolt? If an attack has multiple types, like 9 cutting and 2 fire, how is the damage calculated?


What's the penalty for dying in Bioshock Infinite?

I feel like when I die and come back from the reload point, the number of silver eagles that I find in drawers and barrels is less. I'm wondering if this is an actual penalty for dying, or if it's just all in my head. **What are the penalties for dying in Bioshock Infinite?** If it is different for the different difficulties, please list them out.


Is Minecart motion preserved if a chunk is unloaded?

I'm making an adventure map. In one challenge you have to shoot a minecart with a bow and arrow and destroy it in order to open a door. I have the minecart on a loop of powered rails (except for the corners, and a detector block used to determine when the minecart stops going round). Simple experiments seem to suggest that the cart will keep moving once it's going even if I save/exit and come back, but is this always true? Is there a chance someone playing my map could get to this puzzle and find the minecart stationary?


Can I still get my free games from the PSN Welcome Back promotion?

When the PlayStation Network came back online, we could download 2 full games for free. I downloaded `Infamous`, then decided to wait to download the second one. Do you know if I can still download the second game? Where in the menu of PlayStation store can I find it? Did I have a limited time to download these games? For information, I remember that one of these game was `Little Big Planet`.


Does Xbox hard drive transfer transfers Achievements/Avatar awards?

I can no longer sign in to Xbox Live since the May Update thinks my first gen XBox360 is pirated (its not). Still, its pretty old, loud, the disc tray doesnt open all the time, loud, etc, so I am going to buy a new gen xbox. My question is, I've been playing for a while offline, earning achievements, avatar unlocks, etc. When I do the hard drive transfer (with the transfer kit) will this stuff also get carried over, so that when i sign in with the new xbox, it syncs online? Thanks!


How do you play Civilization V by E-Mail?

The Civilization series of games is famous for having a way to play by e-mail. This allows people to take a long time on their turn without holding up the other players, as you do in a real-time game. Yet, I can not find any method to play by e-mail in the game menus. Does it exist? If so, how do you do it?


How do Power and Compassion affect my abilities?

I know that Power increases the damage of direct abilities, Condition Damage improves conditions, and Healing Power (Compassion) improves the heal effects. But by how much?   * Do damaging abilities get a linear bonus to damage based on your power? (Does +1 power = +1 damage?)   * Do healing abilities get a linear bonus to healing based on your compassion? (Does +1 compassion = +1 to heals?)   * How does Compassion interact with the Regeneration buff? (Heal over Time)   * Several skills trigger life leech, such as the Rune of the Vampirism. Does this leech effect scale with your healing?   * Dark Fields can cause life leech as well - do those also scale with Compassion?


How often does a Gargantuan with the Bruiser rune stun?

The level 56 Witch Doctor rune for Gargantuan called "Bruiser" has the following effect: > Bruiser The Gargantuan gains the ability to periodically slam enemies, > dealing 100% of your weapon damage as Physical and stunning them for 3 > seconds. Is there any indication as to how often "periodically" is? Are there abilities or items that can change the frequency of this effect?


How well does OnLive work?

I recently came across OnLive which appears to be a way to play games basically using remote desktop type services. Has anyone had a chance to play with this system in their Beta?

Shield Upgrade needs a System Upgrade

When I first upgrade my shielding to 3 bars, I tried powering it up. However it says "Requires System Upgrade". What system upgrade do I need to power this up? I have enough reactor energy so I'm not sure what I need. Do I have to buy it from a merchant?


Is there something you need to do to activate the Blacksmith at the beginning of Diablo 3?

My husband can speak to the blacksmith, but he has all his stuff still bundled into duffle bags, and there is no "Craft" option. He's level 9. I'm also level 9, and I've been able to speak to the blacksmith and use the smithy for some time. My other characters similarly have had no trouble. Right now, our game is at "The Shattered Crown" quest stage. Is there someone else he needs to speak with, or some sort of event that must be triggered to have the smith set up shop?

Behavior of a JK flip-flop (Minecraft Redstone circuit)?

I've built a JK flipflop - specifically, the **A** version, from Redstone JK flip-flops - and it works - sort of. It doesn't behave as described in the wiki, and I'm not sure if the wiki description is wrong, or if I built something wrong - or maybe the Beta release changed something. The wiki says that the type-A flip-flop is _edge-triggered_ , and will change its output when the Clock goes from 0 to 1, _or_ 1 to 0. For a Clock, I'm using a Switch on the side of a block (with three Redstone wires between it and the circuit, rather than the one wire in the diagram - for some reason, it breaks with only _one_ wire between two blocks.) When I flip the switch down, it transitions from 0 to 1 (unpowered to powered wire), which causes the Output to change, as expected. But when I flip the switch back up (transition from 1 to 0), I get no Output change (for any combination of J and K). Just for fun, I hooked up a 5-Clock as input, in case there was something strange about switches on blocks. But again, the Output only changed when the wire from the Clock went from unpowered to powered, and _not_ the other way. So is that how a JK flip-flop really works? At least in Minecraft, not the real world. :)


How do I save and restore progress for N.O.V.A. on the iPad? I have tried everything I can figure out but there doesn't seem to be a way to save my progress. So I've only been able to make it through 2.5 levels before I run out of playing time and then next time I have to start over. I'm sure it will be obvious once someone tells me, but currently it is very frustrating.


Does weapon speed affect animation speed?

I recently upgraded from a Dagger to a Javelin on my monk - and suddenly, it feels like it takes a lot longer to use my abilities. I checked, and found that the Dagger has 1.5 attacks per second compared to the Javelin's 1.2 -- does this actually effect the animation time of the abilities? Abilities already base damage off of weapon DPS (instead of Max/Min damage), presumably to normalize the difference between fast and slow weapons. But if faster weapons yield faster animations, they're clearly superior, even with slightly inferior DPS. Does weapon speed actually effect this? (In my case, neither weapon is enchanted)


Is fire rate included in the damage for Demon Hunter's Rapid Fire

> **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Does weapon speed affect animation speed? All Demon Hunter's Rapid Fire skill says is > Rapidly fire for 228% weapon damage as Physical Is this affected at all by the weapon's default fire rate? If the answer is no, it seems logical that a DH should favor damage over attack speed when upping his DPS.


Will regenerated players get called up to the german team?

Due to the fix in place in FM2013, current German players can't get called up to the national squad. Has anyone played beyond the current years to see if any of the new regenerated players will get called up to the national squad?


League of legends folder seems too big

So my league of legends folder is almost 14 gb right now (13.75gb) and yet my pbe is less than 4gb what is going.. what files are taking up so much space and what can I delete so my folder is relatively clean and not wasting 14gb of my hard drive i just deleted all my log files and even after the 800mb purge my game folder is 13.75 Gb large which in my opinion is very crazy.

How do we get back that few seconds preview of death in Call of Duty 4 multiplayer?

Normally whenever we die in Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare multi-player we get a few seconds preview from the enemy's perspective. It shows how he killed us. I think it lasts about 6-8 seconds. For some reason it has stopped showing up when I die. How do I get it to start showing up again?


How to stop those mods from downloading when connecting to a server in Call of Duty 4?

When we try to connect to a server in Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, we sometimes start downloading mods. These can take a lot of time if the mods are bulky. I would rather connect to a different server than wait for these mods to download. How can I stop those mods from downloading and return to the console again? No keys seem to work: esc, contrl+Q etc. Only thing that seems to work is end process of the game and then start it again. Once when I did this it messed up my settings so the next time the game wouldn't start. Is there an easy way to stop trying to stop mods from downloading so you can then connect to a different server?


Why are Seeker Missiles not used more?

why we don't see seeker missile in usage? Especially against Zerg: Hydralisk (with a bunch of friends), Infestor - they will be killed immediately; Mutalisks, Roaches - they will be damaged significantly... Yes, Raven requires gas, seek missile tech - also, but that will be still valuable...

Is it possible to get simpler maps in Skyrim?

I don't know about everyone else, but I find the new 3d maps in Skyrim to be difficult to navigate, especially since you can't rotate all around the map or zoom all the way out. Is it possible to revert to a simpler, 2D map, similar to the ones in Oblivion? I have the xbox 360 version.

How can I hide all these extraneous HUD elements that appear in multiplayer?

I recently tried TrackMania 2, via the Stadium open beta, and having picked a multiplayer server at random (well, with low ping and space) I was presented with the following screen. The edges of my view crowded with boxes full of data that I have no interest in, visual noise to me, with a sprinkling of player names stuck to every car, that intermittently obstruct my view when driving. ![screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/pVipm.jpg) A quick visit to a few other servers gives me similar results, but often with different layouts. While single player is clean. It looks like 'Dedimania' (as can be seen in a header on a box to the left) is a server-side mod of some kind, and I can only assume it is responsible for the mess. In short: **How do I get rid of all the boxes and player names in multiplayer?**   Essentially, I want the clean and minimal UI that I get in single player.


Why can't I give items to friend in my party in Diablo 3?

My friend is about level 9 and I am 18. We are both playing on the same region and can join each others games fine. However, I cannot give him items and he cannot give items to me - we don't see anything when anyone throws items to the ground and the trade button is greyed-out. What's wrong?


Difference between Exalt weapons and regular ones?

I obtained some Exalt weapons. According to the stats (at least those visible on the loadout screen), they seem to be identical to the conventional weapons which are available in unlimited quantity. Do the Exalt weapons have any hidden advantage or do they serve any special purpose except selling them for 1§ each on the grey market?


Can Special Characters Move Into Residential Levels?

I've started playing the new Tiny Death Star game lately and there are special characters that come every now and then (Princess Leia, Han Solo, Boba Fett, etc). Is it possible for them to move into a residential level? Whenever they're on the elevator, they have a '?' above their head. Sometimes, they chose to go to residential levels, but they're either full or not finished building. Is there any chance that one would move in or is it impossible?


Is there a way to control Yorda in your first ICO playthrough?

My girlfriend and I just really enjoyed playing through Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons together and I figured she'd probably enjoy ICO too. We have the PS3 HD remake of the original but I haven't started it yet, I was wondering if there is anyway that she can control Yorda (maybe a cheat code... or something similar) that won't require a solo playthrough? I've noticed you can download saves from certain sites, but they seem to be profile restricted. Thanks! (edit) I managed to download a save and get it onto the PS3... it gave me a warning that any trophies wouldn't apply which was promising, but when starting a new game, and releasing Yorda, I didn't get the option to switch to two players :(

Where do I go next in Reclaimer?

I'm not sure if I've come across a bug, or if I'm just missing something obvious. In the Halo 4 campaign, I'm stuck in the mission Reclaimer, and I can't seem to progress the game any further. I was fighting off a constant barrage of Ghosts and Wraiths being dropped off, and now they're all gone. The Mammoth moved forward a bit, and now it's just sitting there. There is no indication of a next objective. Some Marines are walking around, I tried following them to nothing. I've tried moving forward along a path and it says to return to the battlefield. Any ideas on if I can trigger something to progress, or am I going to have to restart the level? Revert to the Last Save just takes me to the last checkpoint where I am stuck.

Fighting a Zero Suit Samus CPU in Brawl

For those unfamiliar with the game, to select Zero Suit Samus you have to choose (normal) Samus as your character, and then hold down certain buttons when someone presses start. (For example, with the Gamecube controller, holding down the L and R shoulder buttons works.) Now that's all well and good, but what am I supposed to do if I want to fight a CPU Zero Suit Samus? Is there an easy way to force a CPU to be Zero suit samus, or will I have to seek out a human opponent to practice that particular matchup?


Dragon Age: Origins Trophies in Awakening

I have played through Origins twice & have still not obtained some trophies. I was wondering if any non-story specific trophies for Origins will pop during a play through of Awakening. To name a few examples:   * Heavy Hitter - Main character does more than 250 in one hit.   * Archmage - Reach level 20 as a mage. And at a long shot:   * Master Warden/Blight Queller - Kill Darkspawn. I figure the counter for this may not carry over from an Origins save, but it is still achievable?


Xbox 360 freezes at startup screen, audio still works, input does not

My wife and I have two xbox 360s, and recently hers (which is also the oldest) started doing some strange video glitching. I have a dlna server set up in our house, and two days ago, while watching a movie through our dlna server to her xbox, the video simply froze. The audio continued to work, and we could hear our controller input working (pressing the jewel resulted in the proper noise, etc.). Let me be clear, the video froze, it did not go black. We just figured part of the xbox software froze, restarted the xbox, and it worked fine. The next day, same issue happened while watching something over dlna, however, this time, restarting the xbox did not work. Now, when I boot the xbox, the video freezes after a few seconds of the startup splash screen. It goes through all the audio/music of the boot up process, however, the controller is unresponsive (pressing buttons/joysticks does not result in any audio). I've done a few troubleshooting steps:   1. Unplugged everything from the xbox (including usb wireless, a usb stick, hard drive, power, and video), and replugged in only the power and video cable.   2. Started the xbox from a wired controller, while holding the Y and Right Trigger buttons, which some forum posts suggested would reset the video settings.   3. Used the same power and av cables with our other xbox on the same tv to see if it were an issue with the cables.   4. Attempted to boot up an xbox 360 update as described on the xbox.com update page   5. Opened the xbox, and used canned air to clear out any dust from the inputs, heat sinks, and components. I also checked all the capacitors for any bulking or leaks, and everything looks fine.   6. Used the same tv and cables with a second xbox 360, and everything works correctly. None of these have resolved our issue. Coming from a software developer background, this doesn't really look like hardware failure, only because it is both displaying some video and audio, and I'm more thinking it's some sort of software problem that we triggered. For some background, we've been using my dlna server for about 6 months now, and had no problem until now, so I'm not 100% sure the streaming caused the bug, it's just what we have been using that xbox for recently, so it's just happenstance. We've used the other xbox for streaming, too, and haven't had any issues. This is also a first generation xbox 360 (from 2006), so it does not support HDMI, and it is indeed old. Has anyone else encountered this video freeze and unresponsive controls on startup, or while using the system video player? Any suggestions for a fix? **Edit:** Here is an image of how far it gets in the splash screen (taken with my phone): ![The furthest my xbox 360 gets in the splash screen animation](http://i.stack.imgur.com/zIrUt.jpg)


Play secret of mana or zombies ate my neighbors on wii U?

I bought secret of mana and zombies ate my neighbors on the wii U via the older wii virtual console. But when I went to play, a message came up that I had to attach a "classic controller" or exit. So I went and bought the wii u pro controller on the premise that it is supposed to replace the classic controller for the wii u. No change, same message. So what do I have to do to play secret of mana/zombies ate my neighbors on the wii u, from the wii virtual console? Has anyone got them to actually work via the wii u wii-mote classic controller attachments?


Hidden modifiers to various stats in Diablo 3

I've been reading around and found various topics on different hidden modifiers to stats/attributes in Diablo 3. Some of the ones I found most confusing include the Life oh Hit (LoH) modifier, which is based on the skill you are using. Others include lifesteal modifiers for higher difficulties, monster HP and damage modifiers and more people join the game, etc. My question is whether or not there is some place where all this information is compiled, or where people are getting answers from. For example, is there a list of all the LoH modifiers for every single skill? Is there a list of the lifesteal modifier for each difficulty (I already found that it is 70% for Nightmare, 40% for Hell, and 20% for Inferno, but I'm still wondering where this information comes from)? Is there a website that lists the different damage formulas, and how DoT (damage over time) effects stack (or don't stack) with each other? Overall, I'm basically looking for something like a game guide which explains what each stat does (including secondary stats like resistances, armor, etc), and what modifiers exist on them in each of the difficulties. I know that for Diablo II and Titan Quest, these weren't provided by the game makers, but were instead discovered by the players and later posted somewhere so everyone could access it.


How to reset "Top Farm" progress on Android?

I've recently played "Top Farm" on Android but due to the mistakes I have made I would like to start the game from the beginning.

What should I do to reset my progress?


How long does my game stay on sale?

All of my games seem to stay on sale for the same amount of time before they're taken off the market. A game seems to stay on sale long enough to develop another game and have a single sales period of overlap before the previous game is removed from the market. Is this actually the case or are there particular thresholds that trigger a game to be removed from the market? Is my current thought on this based on false observation based on making a bunch of games that sell a similar quantity of units each? How long does my game stay on sale?

How to wind cable controllers with minimal damage

In the past at my place when a PS2 Controller was away (ones which came with the PS2) the cable would be wound around the controller vertically in the center so it sits between the 2 analog sticks, however after a while the outer layer of the cable would get twisted and start to tear exposing internal wires. This was back when i was a kid so i had no control over who did what on a shared PS2, Now that i own 2 of my own (PAL and NTSC) I'm kinda self consonance that when i put the controllers away in the same way i might end up damaging the wires and be unable to find replacements so at the moment i just very slowly and loosely wind the cable around. So i am wondering, how can i wind up cable controllers (particular PS2) so that i do as little damage to them to ensure longevity.


How is XP calculated in Don't Starve?

When you die in Don't Starve, an XP bar appears, telling you the progress to unlocking the next character. How is this calculated? Is there a set amount of XP you get for each day you survive, or does it increase over time? Do you get XP for other actions, like killing monsters, crafting more complicated items etc.


Is there any way to stop Steam downloading updates?

How can I get Steam to stop downloading updates automatically as soon as an update is released for a game like CS:S? It's just that I am running on mobile broadband at the moment and Steam loves to find the biggest update possible to waste my money when I'm on mobile broadband. I have right-clicked the game that updates and unticked the automatic updating. Why is Steam downloading huge-ass updates even when I have told it not to?


What are some of the ways to increase the Respectable quality?

How do you tell which way a planet rotates?

I understand that planetary rotation can help me get in to orbit. I've been told that some planets and moons rotate the wrong way or are tidally locked. I'm not so much looking for a list, but a way to find out in game. I'd rather not focus on an object and accelerate time because the time I need to work this out is just after entering a body's SOI, the later I leave it the more delta-v I'll need to adjust my course. Also, I only use stock.

How do I get my $50 PSN credit after my first Playstation Card purchase?

The PS3 menu shows an offer to sign up for a Playstation card and receive $50 worth of Playstation Network (PSN) points after the first purchase. How does this work, do I get the points immediately, can I place my purchase immediately, how do I redeem the points, etc. The website is kind of vague about this. I understand this is a gaming question site, but this question is linked directly to a credit card for Playstation gaming and networked players are always bombarded with the advertisement in the main menus, and the associated reward is for PSN points, so I feel there is relevance.


How do I activate these three rings?

I'm currently in Milla's mind trying to earn my learners permit for levitation. In her dance club are three rings that I'm supposed to activate.

Preserving a wielded corpse without tinning

Making Raw Carbon Mesh with 9 Carbon Cells consumes the cells; intentional or bug?

(Minecraft Feed the Beast Unhinged 1.5.2) A variety of processes generate carbon cells, and combining nine of them in a crafting table creates a Raw Carbon Mesh, but no empty cells are returned. Given that this is 9 Tin for a single Carbon Mesh, this seems incredibly expensive. Does anyone know if this is intentional behaviour, or a bug? (Regardless, I'm not going to be doing that again unless I get the cells back.)


Tracking Aim As A Heavy

As a player going up against a Heavy, I find myself getting shredded to bits within seconds. As a Heavy going up against another player, I more often find myself completely unable to take down anything with my mini-gun or lock down any areas consistently. I realize that aiming for the body helps, as per this question, but is there a better way to track an enemy's movement than "just aim right"? Is my somewhat- outdated computer (slight lag issues) causing me to be a less effective Heavy? Or am I just engaging at the wrong range due to damage falloff? * * * **Edit:** The original question was about how to better track my aim against targets, which is a bit too broad and doesn't really have an answer, though some of the answers given offered good advice. Shifting this question a bit, I think my problem may actually be related to _target priority_. In other words, who should I be aiming for as a Heavy? Otherwise...I think this question might be inappropriate, and possibly should be closed.

Is there any difference between the two handbrake options?

I notice that, on Xbox at least, both `RB` and `A` are assigned to handbrake. I had a look at the controls and noticed that `A` is also used for answering the phone in the vehicle, so my question: is there any difference between the two handbrakes? I know on a bike there is additional braking controls (different buttons for front and back brakes) but presumably this is not the case in a car.


What do the numbers next to each character indicate?

Fairly straightforward, but when choosing a character to switch to, what do the numbers directly under to Michael, Franklin, and Trevor's photo indicate?


Farming with an AFK rail

I'm playing on an Economy mod server, and we have some really large farms that exceed the chunk size (namely, my farm is 400x200 blocks) and it's really easy to create a farm that needs what we on the server call an AFK rail, or a minecart railroad that will take you around the farm to continually load these chunks and keep your farm growing while you sleep. The problem is that it appears to be several times slower than occupying one chunk, then moving on to the next chunk, et cetera. Even a rail spanning only two or three chunks takes about 4 times longer to grow a single chunk. Can anyone think of a way around this? Is there a relatively easy way to create a railroad that stops you for say, 20 minutes at a time? The only way I can think of is a timer made with 4-tick repeaters, but that would require a lot of repeaters.


Execute a command daily per user

Destiny Vanguard Armory only level 5 and 20?

Will the Vanguard Armory ever get any content except level 5 or 20 items? Meaning, for instance when I get to level 10, will the level 5 items be replaced with level 10 items? Or will I only have available the level 5 items until I reach level 20 and can buy the level 20 items? Right now it has 6 items at level 5, under "Vanguard Armory", and 12 items under "Vanguard Weapons", all at level 20.


Why did my sheep die?

I had 7 sheep in a pasture. I moved them to a larger one, and they all proceeded to die until none remained.

Is there a weapons list/unlock guide for Earth Defense Force 2025?

For EDF 2017, the prequel, I found this: http://www.gamefaqs.com/xbox360/929255-earth-defense-force-2017/faqs/48650, which helpfully lists every weapon in the game, and more importantly, the minimum mission number and difficulty required to unlock the weapon, but I have found no such list for the new game, EDF 2025. Does one exist? So far I've done searches on google, checked gamefaqs, checked to see if there was an EDF 2025 wikia page, and checked the manual, but no luck so far.


How to rebind mouse buttons?

is it possible to rebind the mouse buttons in Neverwinter Nights? I can't change them through the Options interface in-game. I would like to know if there is a hack or something to do it.


Steams Servers Are To Busy To Complete Installation?

I had a problem with Portal 2 on steam a bit ago where when I tried to launch it after the creepy Valve intro the game would crash. I went to validate my files and after I did that I opened the game when I saw a window that said, completing installation. When it reaches 100% it says that Steam's servers are to busy. I have tried it multiple times as well as early in the morning and late at night. How can I complete my installation of the validated file?
