How do I find someone I have started courting?

So I'm playing for the first time and I started courting someone. Suddenly I had an appointment in the town hall to get to. Fast forward a few hours and I have no idea how to find the person I was previously courting. Can anyone tell me how to find them?


Why does OCTGN keep asking me to update? I already have the new version!

OCTGN keeps asking me to update even though I've already updated to the latest version.


Is there any way to lock the camera on an enemy?

I'm having a bit of trouble adapting to the new combat engine. The Arkham Asylum-style combat is not a problem, but the _camera_ is giving me trouble. It seems to stay put, even if I'm targeting an enemy in the foreground...even if they run off-screen, in fact. There doesn't appear to be a formal 'lock-on' like there was in previous installments, but is there any way to keep the camera turned towards my active target? This is really making my life difficult.


Why won't my escape key work in the keybindings?

I'm having this really strange problem that I just can't seem to figure out. My escape key won't bind. In fact, the option for using the escape key is simply grayed out in the keybindings menu: ![diablo3menu](http://i.stack.imgur.com/IpyvK.jpg) I can't bind or unbind the escape key at all. Though it's not necessary to use the escape key, it's driving me crazy. I use this key to log out of the game and to clear menus from the screen. Any ideas?


What is the cause of so many people disconnecting at the beginning?

In nearly every game i play someone disconnects at the very beginning. Is this caused by someone leaving the game already? I would find that very hard to believe because it just happens too often.


Can you combine two existing stations in openTTD?

I recently started a new openTTD game, and forgot to hit `ctrl` while putting down my first airport near a bus station. I want the passenger service of both to merge together, but I'd rather not write off the airport's cost as a loss. Is this possible?


What objects can set a player color property/How does something use the player color property in LBP2?

I am working on a level in LBP2 where automatically setting a unique color would be of benefit. I could've sworn I saw it somewhere but I can't remember where.


What's an hour of Saints Row: The Third time in real life?

Saints Row: The Third is my first experience with the franchise, and I'm trying to understand when city income will be available for me to transfer out. The game says one hour, but it seems I have funds I can transfer out at least a couple times an hour, and at one point I thought I got 'paid' rather quickly, with a death in-between. Is an hour a set time period, or do in-game activities (deaths, missions, etcetera) have an impact?


Does the aura color in Grand Prix Story modify its effectiveness for different actions?

In Grand Prix Story the drivers will at different times enter what is called "Aura Time", during which they are surrounded by a colored aura. Performing most any action (research, upgrade, train, parts install, etc) with that driver will trigger the aura and increase the effectiveness of the action. So far I have seen two colors of aura occur on the same driver (purple and white, and not at the same time). I am curious as to whether or not the color of the aura affects different actions differently, (i.e. maybe white is more effective at training and purple is better for increasing your qualifier lap).


What should I have if I've done everything?

I'm closing in on the end of Skyward Sword, it seems, and I'm wondering how I'll know that I've found everything. If I've found everything unique or of limited quantity in the game, performed every sidequest and mastered every minigame, what should I have on my subscreen and in my Item Store? (I don't care so much about rupees and crafting material in Surface chests and as rewards for minigames, as they occur elsewhere.)


Where can I train one handed weapons?

I know Vilkas trains two-handed weapons. Who's the equivalent of Vilkas for one-handed weapons?


How do I change my Steam username?

My username on Steam is an old e-mail I no longer use. Is there a way to change username?


How do I get past the spinning blades of death in Raldbthar?

As part of the quest "Mourning Never Comes", I'm tasked with dealing with a problem in Raldbthar. Once I completed my objective, I noticed the dungeon continues further along. I've gotten pretty far, but now I've come to a ramp that goes upwards and has two spinning blades of death on it: if I even so much as graze them, I die instantly. Now, I know the rest of the dungeon is for a later main quest, "Discerning the Transmundane". But I was interested to see if I can just press on anyway, like I can do with other quest dungeons. I looked around online and in the official strategy guide, and the very "helpful" advice I've found is "avoid the blades because they'll kill you." Is that it? Are the blades supposed to be a source of tedium, or is there a trick to getting around them (like, perhaps, a hidden lever to turn them off)? Or are they there to prevent me from continuing further until I have the appropriate quest?


Jungle Temple percentage

I wonder if anyone knows the approximate chance of a jungle temple being generated in a regular-sized jungle biome. Is there a better chance in a giant jungle biome? Are the chances the same across different platforms (PC PS3 Mobile)?


What makes an AD Caster?

So, recently I tried Wu Kong out in an AD-Caster-type playstyle, but it didn't really work. So I began to think, what actually makes a champion viable for playing the role of an AD Caster? How should I be playing an AD Caster? What stats should I be looking to build?


Boost Items in Game Dev Story

I've been playing Game Dev Story a bit lately, and have gotten to the point where I own all the boost items, have a fair bit of tech, and are consistently selling really well with my games - though I haven't yet gotten a GOTY award. My theory is that if I want that award, I need to pump up the stats of the game during development (makes sense). It stands to reason that the Boost Items help with this. However, I am a little confused as to who I should select to use the Boost items, when to use them, and how often I should. Can anyone help me here? :P


Can you attack Time Eater as Classic Super Sonic?

It seems that I can only get close to and attack Time Eater as Modern Super Sonic. No matter how long I spend boosting as Classic Super Sonic, I can never seem to catch up with Time Eater. I can dodge all of the boss's counter- attacks, but that doesn't get Classic Super Sonic any closer for a hit. Sonic's friends tell me that I can switch between the two Sonics in my pursuit, but while I'm playing as classic, they say to switch to modern _in order to go after Eggman to attack_. Is attacking the boss only possible with Modern Super Sonic, and not Classic Super Sonic? Or is it possible to get close enough for a hit with either one? > The final blow does not count, as you have to combine the powers of _both > Sonics_ to blast through the fireball attack. **Research**   * This guide suggests that it's possible, "but it's extremely difficult." Not _remarkably_ helpful, but still gets me thinking...


How can I spot vehicles when flying a jet?

For some reason I can't seem to be able to spot other vehicles when flying a jet. I've assigned the "spot / communications" key to a joystick button, keep flying directly at vehicles and hit that button, but nothing happens. If I keep the button pressed, I see the com menu, so it must be assigned correctly. I should probably also note that I am playing in Hardcore mode. Is this a known limitation (perhaps with the new BF3 patch or on Hardcore servers only), or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Adrian


Alternative ending in Shenmue?

I heard there is an alternative ending in **Shenmue I**. What is it and how do you get it?


Is repeatedly tapping the bush beneficial?

In Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery (etc), there are an awful lot of bushes. Everywhere I go, there are bushes that can be tapped. I tip tap on them from time to time, but nothing ever seems to come of it. Most of the other stuff in the game has some sort of interaction tied to it, even if it's just a bit of funny dialog. Is there any benefit to tapping the bushes? Should I repeatedly tap the bush, or is once enough? Is there a specific bush I should be tapping?


Can I modify or delete one of my steam friends group tags?

In Steam friends, you can organize your friends by "tagging" them (in your friends list, right click someone and select "Tag as"). It's convenient since it allows you to organize your contacts following the games you play together, the moment of the day when they are available, whatever. ![Steam friends group tags](http://i.stack.imgur.com/hZg1S.jpg) But once you have created a tag an assigned it to some of your friends, is it possible to   * modify the tag (rename it) ?   * delete the tag (and, hence, untag all the tagged friends) ?


Problems with Minecraft Spawn Trap Up In The Sky

So! I've made a giant mob spawner/killer up in the sky (y=220-235) over an ocean. Light level 1 spawn floors, 540 block area, 3 high, periodic water flush that pushes mobs into a pit, where fall damage kills them. Problem is, mobs seems to rarely spawn inside, and endermen just vanish. I know they teleport on contact with water, but shouldn't they appear outside the trap on one of the catwalks? The floor they land on is ~40 blocks lower, and there's nothing else up that high. So my question(s) are, why aren't more monsters spawning? I'll leave it running for half an hour, and there will be 2 spawns. Other times, I'll get 30 kills in 10 minutes. Any idea why? Bonus round: Where the hell are the endermen going? Why do they hate my trap?


Is retro Lode Runner available on any modern system?

I'd like to play Lode Runner again. How can I do this on a modern system? I'll settle for any reasonable clone, but only if it **does not scroll**. I downloaded the NES version on Wii Virtual Console, and it scrolls! This is not the real Lode Runner. By modern system, I mean PC (including web-based) & the current generation of consoles (Jan 2011).


Can you take screenshots of XBox 360 games?

The question's probably enough -- but can you take (in-software/hardware) screen shots of arbitrary XBox 360 games, and if so, how? Also, if you can, how would you get the image off the 360 and onto, say, your computer? (Currently, I resorted to snapping an actual -- bad -- photograph of my TV screen.)


Do I need to constantly wear the Blue Seal?

I joined the "Way of the Blue" covenant and my understanding is that I need to wear the "Blue seal" I received in order to get help if invaded. What I'd like to know is: do I have to wear it **before** the invasion starts or it will work even if I wear it when the enemy is already in my world?


Why is my server's memory usage so high with just 5 players online?

I recently started a vanilla Linux Minecraft server (v1.7.2) and have been having trouble with high RAM usage causing the server to disconnect. I have allocated a maximum of 3.5GB. I restarted the server an hour ago and have been monitoring it. I noticed that when players disconnect the memory usage doesn't reduce and as more players join the memory usage just increases.   * With 5 players logged in, the RAM usage is at 63% (2.1GB).    * With just 3 players on the server, memory usage is 58.9% I also get this error when starting the server: > your platform for not provide complete low-level api for accessing direct > buffers reliably. Unless explicitly requested heap buffer well always be > preferred to avoid potential system instability The command I am using to start the server is: `Java -Xms512M -X3584M -jar minecraft_server.jar` What could be causing the high memory usage and why doesn't it reduce when the player count reduces?


Why are the higher level elemental spells in Final Fantasy named Fira, Firaga, etc

In some English versions of Final Fantasy elemental spells are named Fire, Fire2, Fire3 while in others they're named Fire, Fira, Firaga (or Thunder, Thundra, Thundaga). At first I thought it was due to bad English translation, but the English translation is flawless. What does "Firaga" stands for?


Do the usb ports on the back of the XBox 360 always supply power?

I'm curious if the USB ports on the back of the Xbox 360 constantly supply power, even if the Xbox itself is turned off (but still plugged in obviously). Also, is the power supplied by the USB ports in the back 500 mA?


Prestige unlock token and Prestige reward

Do you lose your prestige unlock token if you select a prestige reward and vice versa? A couple of friends have been telling me that you do. **When you prestige, can you get a prestige reward AND a permanent unlock, or is it just one of the two?**


What criteria must be met to earn a 3 stars rank?

How do you earn a 3 stars rank in _Mario Kart 8_? I saw somewhere that said that you have to cross (the finish line) with 10 coins, or get first place. However, I achieved both cases playing alone and in multiplayer with friends, and no stars were given.


Where are the master illusion spell text?

In skyrim i have 100 skill in illusion and i went to the illusion master in the college of winterhold. He gave me a quest to find text books that have the information i need to get the master illusion spells. I need to use a spell he gives me to see the books, but i can't find the text books i need for the master illusion spells , i searched everwhere even in the midden. Does anyone know where i could find the text books?


Is the story progression time based or event based?

In other words, is it possible to delay the story progression (and therefore tougher enemies) through not researching certain artifacts and not doing certain missions? Is it possible to "fail" story missions or suffer other consequences by not doing them for prolonged time?


Is there anyway to get someone out of "attack on sight" mode once diplomacy failed too much?

I am in the first town, most people seem to like me, but this one lady called Teleri Helvi I failed too much on admire/intimidate. She's following me around town, punching me. If I kill her, I go to jail. If I go rest she's waiting outside. What can I do? I thought if someone hits me first I'm allowed to attack back?


I'm drifting and I don't know why

As a longtime Mario Kart Wii player, I always used Automatic drift mode so I could concentrate on the higher-level details of what I was doing rather than how I was doing it. (That's how I rationalised it, anyway.) Mario Kart 8 doesn't have an Automatic mode, forcing me to take a (ahem) _crash_ -course in drifting. Anyway, while I was figuring this out, my bike would occasionally drift, sometimes long enough to Mini-Turbo, **all by itself**. I'm not kidding - I'd turn the GamePad left (albeit _hard_ left) and the bike would inexplicably drift. (My younger brother, who had drifting worked out before I did, didn't believe me until it happened to him on the same bike.) So far I've reproduced this behaviour on three bikes (two drifting inward, one outward), two karts, and a quad, which leads me to suspect it's universal. So here I was thinking `ZR` was required to drift, and then the thing occasionally does it itself - anyone know what's going on? I've read the entire electronic manual (yeah, I'm one of _those_ people), but still cannot find any mention of this.


What happens if I take Clementine with me to Crowford?

This contains episode 4 spoilers. I chose to leave Clementine in the house instead of taking her with me. Upon coming back, a walker tried to go into the house, but Clementine killed it with a gun I left her.   Omid was sleeping upstairs. If I had taken her with me, would the walker have killed Omid? Would she have been ok with the trip? It was really dangerous, but I assume she couldn't die as she is important for episode 5 at least. What if I left her in the house but didn't give her a gun? Does Omid die?


How do I find the Arch-mage at the end of the quest "Under Sarhaal"?

I've finished the `Under Sarhaal` quest on the PS3, and by finished I mean I'm on the last step: Talk to the Arch-mage I have scoured the College, and even gone into the `Midden Dark` (and out the other side, there's a great shipwreck out there), and I still can't find the arch-mage. The 'arrow' seems to indicate he's somewhere in the vertical structure around his quarters, but I can't find him there. I've tried to wait until the middle of the night to see if he comes to bed, but this guy never sleeps. Where is the Arch-mage?


How can I remove dragon priest masks from a follower's inventory?

I was moving my house in Skyrim had my follower (Vilkas) pick up my things so I could fast travel. At the new house I attempted to take them back, but it refused to allow me to take any of the dragon priest masks from his inventory. I was forced to kill him to reclaim them. Is there another way to get the masks back that doesnt result in his death? Is this a problem for all followers? I play on a console, so system commands are not helpful.


What do Might and Magic: Heroes 6 Classes do for your hero?

What do the classes do for your hero? (e.g. Ebon Knight, Cleric, Necromancer) The Hall of Heroes also says that it lets my hero change classes. I'd thought that it was related to the specialization but some heroes have the same classes but different specializations.


Can torches cause fire?

I was just about to dig myself a new basement to my wooden-home, when I suddenly figured that the ceiling was on fire (long story short, not even the cockroaches survived). The only thing I did was to place a torch underneath a wooden block, as I've done many times before without so devastating effects. So I wonder, can torches ignite fires? If yes, always or only under certain conditions?


Does cannibalism count as food?

I'm going for the Desert Survivalist achievement, and throughout my Fallout experiences, I've never taken the Cannibalism perk. I'm thinking that, since I'm playing a very evil character this time, I might take Cannibalism at some point. If I do, does engaging in cannibalism count as food? And what of the Ghastly Scavenger perk? Does feasting on ghouls and super mutants count as food? (Wow, this sounds sick as I read it ... )


Do defensive weapon strap-ons only take effect depending on which weapon (melee/ranged) I'm holding?

For example, I have a melee weapon with the 'Iron Crossguard' defensive strap- on (deflect 15% more damage when you block): !['Iron Crossguard' defensive strap-on \(deflect 15% more damage when you block\)](http://i.stack.imgur.com/3rCas.png) And in combat, I attacked with my ranged weapon, so I'm now holding my ranged weapon. If I get attacked while holding the ranged weapon, will I still deflect 15% more damage when I block?


What is the least damaging creature in Skyrim?

So there are a number of exploits that require an enemy nearby, but for the case of armor or blocking skills you need to be getting hit. So I was curious. Of all the creatures in Skyrim, that will attack you, what does the lease damage? Per hit or Per minute. I'm not interested in any solutions that require the use of the console or mods.


How do I "free look" in jets and helicopters?

I saw a video on Youtube (not sure if it's OK to link it since it has NSFW language) of a player who was able to look around while in a jet using cockpit view. What key/button do you use to do this? I'm personally interested in how to do this for Xbox 360, but it might be useful for others if anyone knows the answer for PS3 and PC as well.


How can I effectively defeat the Wall of Flesh?

I've been having trouble defeating this little bugger. EVen with lots of buff potions, health potions, high tier armor (Molten), and ranged weapons with plenty of ammo (Minishark), I can't seem to kill this. Worse, when I get it down to about 2000 hp, even if I'm farily far away, it'll suck me in and continually rise towards the skybox, which doesn't allow me to do anything for some reason.


What can I do after getting stocked on hellstone?

I started playing Terraria just a month ago and I'm confused. I have full hellstone armor, all helstone gear, cobalt shield, armored starband, jagged regeneration ring, rocket boots and defense 4 boots (don't know what they're called, they make you run really fast). I died twice facing the Wall of Flesh. What do I do? I'm stuck. I have a space gun, star fury sword, and deadly musket, flintlock pistol, grappling hook, keen vilethorn and lastly magic mirror.


Streaming with nintendo (3)DS

Can I use iPhone adapter to charge Nintendo 3DS?

My Nintendo 3DS does not come with a cable like this, but I'm wondering if I can buy it and plug it to my iPhone/iPad adapter. Is it safe to do so? (If someone can point me to the right Nintendo KB page that would be a good proof, then if my 3DS is fried I can still claim warranty.) Edit: iPhone adapter looks like this (Although mine is with AU plug), not sure if the watt output varies from one country to another.: ![](http://i.stack.imgur.com/By58Z.jpg)

Is there an optimal opening production order? Specifically, I am looking for the first 3 things to produce in a standard game. I have seen neither a definitive guide nor a consensus about what should be the very first things to build. I imagine that there is an optimal strategy because there are few choices of what to build, and little information available to influence the decision.


How do I unlock courses in Mario Kart Wii?

I imagine I have to win some cups in single-player mode. Can someone be more specific than that? A link to a site with the info would be fine. I'm disappointed by the organization of the sites I checked out. I couldn't find the answer.


Is it possible to emulate an Xbox 360 or PS3?

I'm a guy that only plays on PC, but there are some really decent games on Xbox 360 and PS3, that are made exclusively for these platforms. I was wondering if it's possible to emulate consoles of that generation on a PC? If so, what software would I use? What are the hardware requirements?


How can I jump farther in Ski Safari?

I've noticed that sometimes after I jump of a ramp or leap from the top of a steep hill I'll catch a bit of air and float a bit rather than dropping like a rock towards the hill below me. Is there something I'm doing that is helping me make a longer jump or is it random? Can I do something similar with penguin skis, yetis and snowmobiles?


Is there ever a case in which an item not useful for research is useful for anything but selling?

I've noticed several items which are marked as useless for research. Should I just sell these right away, or is there ever a case in which one of them might be useful? Items include broken flight computers, alien food, entertainment, stasis pods, etc.


Are there certain items that you should always sell?

I see that some items "have on research benefit and can be sold freely"   If i sell these will I regret it later or can I sell them without worrying?


How do I deal with turrets as a Scout?

There is a chat bot in Scrolls called `scrollbot` that is used to monitor user ranking and can be queried to provide both personal and other player information. I have found mention of the bot in reference material and you can also see the bot user ID in the `General-1` chat room of the game. However, I can not figure out how to query it. Has anyone found a `scrollbot` cheat sheet or know how to query it for personal details? Bonus points if you know anything about the `modbot` that also appears to be in `General-1`.

Do elevators ever reset in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood?

Do the "elevators" in _Assassin's Creed Brotherhood_ ever reset? From the way they are built they look pretty much like single-use objects but that would be kind of annoying since you usually spend lots of time in a town and are likely to go to the same place twice.


When is it worth it to get Will of the Ancients on other champions to help out the AP carry?

I have tried WotA on Amumu in the jungle, since it seems to work relatively well with his kit, and can help out some AP carries a fair amount, so I've found it's worth getting. But for other champions, I'm not sure. For instance, when playing Janna or Soraka, who benefit somewhat from AP, what makes getting WotA to help your AP carry out from the aura? Is there a way to measure the effectiveness of WotA for them, and under what conditions make it good to sacrifice the items you would normally build in order to buy WotA?


If your mothership is being controlled by neural parasite, can you build another?

Redstone Simulator with support for Redstone Block

A list of what each of them are good at and bad at will be very helpful. A link to a page would also be much appreciated.

How do I play the piano in the Steam version of FFVII?

I'm playing through the piano in the steam version of FFVII and I'm in the Nibelheim flashback right after you leave Midgar. Cloud enters the mansion and finds a piano; it seems pretty obvious that I'm supposed to play the song I found on the piano in Tifa's house a little while back. However, when I hit 'insert' [SWITCH] for Re the screen flashes and I get a shrill noise, rather then a piano note. I tried remapping [SWITCH] to `G` but it does the same thing. Without too many spoilers (I know far too many of them already, since this is such an old game) is playing the piano important, and is getting this odd noise normal when I hit [SWITCH]/Re Edit: I'm trying to play the song, but nothing seems to happen when I finish it. Should I even be playing the song here? Edit 2: The key works fine, as the note that is [SWITCH] + [Page Down] works fine.


Is there a way to reverse looking up and down?

Hopefully self-explanatory, but I would find it much more natural to use right stick up to look down and right stick down to look up. Is there a way to achieve this in Skyrim on PS3? I couldn't see anything obvious in the controls settings.

Making monster mobs more interesting in creative mode

I have Minecraft, and tend to play in survival mode. My children like creative mode. As well as buildings and rollercoasters, they have started to be interested in creatures, and recently switched monsters on, treating them as "pets". I have helped them create "monster zoos" using spawn blocks etc. The monster behaviour in creative mode is somewhat boring though. The children don't really want to fight the monsters, but might be entertained if they fought each other, or acted with some simple purpose. Even sheep tending to climb up are more entertaining than zombies on creative mode. Are there ways to get a more interesting or entertaining behaviours out of the Minecraft monsters, when in creative mode? * * * Examples of things mobs do or have done that my children have found interesting:   * Witches taking potions when hurt   * Monsters getting into minecarts and riding rollercoasters   * Iron golems protecting villagers, and giving them flowers   * A "baby crowding waterfall" that happened to a mooshroom where they made it spawn around 100 babies, which then pushed it around (and mostly downhill) as the ones at the back tried to get closer.

Skyrim crashes my system when I open map

I came upon a very frustrating problem while trying to play Skyrim. Similar problems were discussed quite a lot (157 forum pages!), but I don't seem to find any solution to this. **Problem itself:** When I open world map in Skyrim with `M` key my system crashes almost instantly. Video card stops working ("No signal" on monitor), after that sound freezes and loops. Only hard reset works to recover my system, so the OS must have crashed too (but I am not able to check BSOD due to video not working) Crash with exactly same symptoms happened when I was trying to play Red Faction: Armageddon. Had no problems until the scene where you have to protect a convoy in a battlesuit on some flying platform. System crashed every time during that scene, wasn't able to proceed. **System details:**   * Windows 7 x64   * Core i5 @3.4 GGhz   * 16 Gb DDR3   * Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti   * Skyrim with all 3 DLCs, Legendary Edition, Steam I am pretty sure that my hardware is fine since I played a lot of demanding games and had this kind of problem with only 2 of them in a very specific circumstances. Even Skyrim runs fine for hours unless I open the map. I blame the interaction between application and video driver. _Crash is not random, it happens after specific actions._ Also not the application crashes but all system. **More info:**   * I am using Unofficial Skyrim Patch mods from Nexus   * I am using SKSE and ENB   * I am using a lot of other mods   * Disabling all mods listed above does not solve this problem   * I have no "bloodSplatter" setting in my config   * My system is not overheating, both CPU and GPU.   * Video drivers are most recent, however I tried older(332 and 314) versions without success. Can someone please suggest anything how to solve this? Seen a lot of threads all over the internet but no actual solutions.

What happens to dwarves with infections?

My military dwarves sallied out to fight a goblin ambush group that was attacking my woodcutter, and they were ambushed by another group. They killed a few and scared the others off. While pursuing the cowards they were ambushed by a third group. After a fierce battle, I had to send a lot of soldiers to the hospital. Luckily no one died. My doctors took care of the wounded and got them all fixed up. Well, almost. Some of them got out of the hospital with an infection. They're back on their training schedule, and seem perfectly fine, except for the mention of an infection in the health screen. Will their condition deteriorate sometime later and get them back to the hospital? Or perhaps to the morgue? If so, what can I do to treat the infections?


How do I change the video settings from outside Starcraft 2?

In switching from residence life to house life for a brief vacation, I've been forced to downgrade from my 1920x1080 resolution-supporting monitor to a 1024x800 monitor, although I brought my computer along with me. I forgot to change the settings on my games to a lower resolution before heading out, and now whenever I try to open Starcraft 2, my screen goes black and I'm told that my monitor doesn't support the resolution. Is there any way I can change the video settings outside of the game so I can resume playing Starcraft 2? If not, is there any way I can bypass this Black Screen Monitor Resolution Error Thing(TM) to play the game?


Am I able to remap action groups after I've launched?

What do these strange parts mean?

As you guys might know, there are things in TF2 called strange parts, add-ons to your weapons that count specific things. For example, the amount of damage you have dealt, number of allies you have extinguished, etc. **However, I have some queries regarding how certain strange parts mean and how they count kills. Here they are:**   * **Strange Part: Freezecam Taunt Appearances** Does this strange part only count your victim's killcam? Or does it include your taunt apperances in other people kill cam?   * **Strange Part: Full Moon Kills** What does Valve mean by 'Full Moon Kills'? Kills during Halloween? Or on certain maps where there is a full moon?   * **Strange Part: Airborne Enemies Killed** Does 'Airborne Enemies' include enemies that are jumping? For example, scouts that are high up in mid-air or just random enemies that jumped when you killed them.   * **Strange Part: Point-Blank Kills** How close is 'point-blank' close?   * **Strange Part: Allied Healing Done** How about health you have restored with a health pack that you picked up, does that count? Or dropping a sandvich. Does healing yourself count as 'allied health'?


What do Dark Anchors do?

Run old games on screen that does not support lower resolutions

How can I run old games that insist on a lower resolution (say, 640x480 or 800x600) when my display refuses to run at those resolutions? Most such games will run windowed, with works, but is a bit of a shame. It would be nifty to get it scaled up to full screen, with columnboxing if necessary. More seriously, some games simply refuse to cope. Sam & Max Season 1 will run windowed, but wedges when I try to open the options. So because it doesn't like my display, I can't change the audio mix. My searches so far have only turned up GameCompanion. It's not clear that it will work, and the unusual distribution channels (Bethesda RPG mod sites and Facebook) make me a big uncomfortable. Edited to add: I have an Nvidia card, and it turns out that it will let my add "custom" resolutions. 800x600 worked, 640x480 didn't. It's documented here, but the current interface looks different: http://www.nvidia.com/object/custom_resolutions.html Unfortunately this isn't a general solution; it didn't work for 640x480, and I don't know if it works for other video cards.


What does ringing the bell in Belfry Luna/Sol do?

What Wii Remote input affects my throw in bowling?

In Wii Sports bowling, I can move my character's starting position back and forth, and change the initial angle of their throw. But it seems that there are other properties of the throw that are determined by Wii Remote actions:   * Speed / strength of throw (obviously)   * "spin" on ball What other things might I be missing, and what affects them?

How are people playing betas before they come out?

Last night I noticed I had a friend playing the Gears of War 3 Beta and was playing team death match (I don't know where he came from just a random off of Xbox live). I messaged him over and over again trying to find out how this was possible but he never responded. I searched online for a good 45 minutes and NOTHING just that the beta starts the 18th for Bulletstorm Epic edition owners and the 25th for the rest of us. I honestly gave up and just figured maybe he knows someone important or something. However today one of my personal friends said he saw a person online playing it as well. He investigated further and determined there is 90MB update when you log into bulletstorm and now the Gears of War 3 beta icon is lit up. However when he tries to launch it he receives a message that it won't be available until the 18th. I understand that officially it won't be available until the 18th but I still want to know how this is possible. Did they hack it? are we both crazy? I guess it's also possible we both know people that work at Epic? How is it possible for people to play betas before they come out? I have seen people playing full games before they release due to them working in retail ect.. but what about betas?


where is the save file located?

Question is about KOPP +1 Edition, not KOPP. Where are the save files located? -- this one didn't help. I bought KOPP+1 for my Android 2.3 device. Played it for a bit, made 3 save files. I just upgraded to an Android 4.2.2 device. I moved KOPP+1 over to the SD card and put the SD card in the new phone. When I open KOPP it can't find the save games. I've searched for files using the file browser named "knights" and not found any files. But searching for "seesmic" did find files, so I know that's working. How can I find my old save file and get it working on my new phone?

When Can I Start Killing People?

It was my impression that, at the beginning of Mirror's Edge, you're not allowed to kill anyone. But then suddenly, somewhere in the middle of the game, you're allowed to kill people - but the game does not inform you of this. At what point does Mirror's Edge start allowing me to kill people without failing the level?


How do you win a Global Game Awards Grand Prize in Game Dev Story?

I've played Game Dev Story for iPhone for quite a while now, and winning a GGA Grand Prize seems to be quite difficult. So far, I've only won one, despite high (36+) review scores on many games. The one time I won the Grand Prize, I released 4 Hall of Fame level games that year, and ended up winning Best Design, Best Sound, Runner Up, and Grand Prize. Is this the only way to win the Grand Prize?

Which achievements can be permanently lost in Skyrim?

My goal is to get all the Skyrim achievements with a single character. I got many of them already by simply playing along and completing certain quest lines. I discovered today that it is possible to take some perfectly normal actions that will stop you from completing an achievement. In my case it is missing a daedric artifact that cannot be recovered (although there might be a workaround as long as only one is lost - see answers in the linked question). Now I want to know if there are other "fragile" achievements like that. I am not talking about blindly killing important NPCs or other obvious stupid actions. I am interested in quest items that are easily missed or decisions you can make that will mess up an achievement. I read about all the possible troubles with Oblivion Walker, please focus on the other achievements instead. Where can I easily go wrong so that I have to play the game again from the start with a new character or load an old savegame before my blunder?

Should I use a 1H or a 2H as a battle mage?

I really love the idea of a warrior charging into battle with the powers of destructive magic as his ally. Being brand new to Skyrim, I did some reading on the topic but haven't been able to find the answer to my question: Should I go 1H with a spell at the ready, or 2H and switch to dual-handed magical destruction as needed?

Good class and profession combinations for leveling with a friend in WoW?

this is kind of a follow up to my recent question regarding WoW and leveling (here). My friend decided to try WoW and i would like to play with him from level 1 to 85 with a brand new character. I would like to know what are some good choices of class **and** professions in a 2-man party, so that there is perfect synergy between us? We are on a PvE server and are mainly focused on PvE, so you can disregard anything thats related to PvP (Arenas etc.). One thing to consider is that my friend strongly favors playing as a hunter (he looked through the classes available in WoW and immediatelly fell in love with this one). However I can probably persuade him to play something else. As a side note, i was thinking of a Druid+Hunter combo, where Hunter would go for Skin/LW and Druid for Herb/Alch. Both can benefit from Alch (elixirs etc.) and both wear leather (+mail for the hunter). Any other ideas, suggestions?

Why won't my follower just leave me alone‽

I love Khem. I really do. He gets his face bashed in on a regular basis so I don't have to. But for all his "Yes, master", and "Watch your back, little Sith", I can't help but notice that he follows me _everywhere_ at a distressingly short distance. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue, but it makes trying to click on quest givers and archaeology nodes something of an unnecessary roulette. Do I get to click on the rubat crystal, or-- nope. "I HUNGER". Of course you do, big guy. Of course you do... Is there any way I can get my companion to follow me at a slightly longer distance, or otherwise resolve my companion's tendency to make it hard to click on things?

How do I move software cursors with AutoHotKey?

It seems that games with software cursors only respond to actual mouse movement and not commands like MouseMove from AutoHotKey. Is there a way to get these unruly games to recognize commands that move the mouse via AutoHotKey? I play on OnLive. This may matter because of the mechanism of the unique, cloud input delivery.   Other games accept mouse movement commands via AutoHotKey, but it may be because their pointer interface is based on the hardware cursor.

Is chest farming worth it?

I saw this forum post: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/12329613230 The gist of the rather long post is that you get far more legendaries by making "chest runs" through story missions, like Act V Mission 6.2, than you will by killing anything. It recommends stacking survivability and mobility and **outright ignoring** all mobs (especially elites) and treasure goblins, focusing solely on looting chests. The results it claims are on the order of 6 legendaries/hr as opposed to approximately 1.7 legendaries/hr playing the game "normally". Some people in the thread says it's fake. I want to know if chest farming like this is worth it in any way.


Does viewing the Map pause the game?

I noticed that when the hounds are targeting me, they keep attacking me even when I'm viewing the map, and eventually they kill me and the map is still open. I even was resurrected once at a touchstone when this happened. Another time I left the game in map view and came to see myself dead in the middle of killer bee hives. So I became concerned that viewing the map still makes the time go by and if the night comes, I might be killed by Charlie, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I can't figure out how it works still. Does viewing Map pause the game? Or does it only pause the game under certain conditions?


Strategy for discarding cards at the beginning (mulligan)

When you get your first hand in Hearthstone you can discard as many cards as you like and draw replacements for your deck. For now I've mostly just eliminated very expensive cards that I won't get to play for a while, but I'm wondering how aggressive one should be in eliminating expensive cards. Are there some common rules on which cards to discard immediately? Besides the mana cost, which factors should I take into account making this decision?


Minecraft Server 1.7.4 blank

So I'm trying to make a little lan server (or server with hamachi) and one of my friends can't join (other people have been able to though). I've been looking for solutions and I came upon one where it says to check on the server file. The thing is that my server program is not showing any info. So, is this a problem that prevents my one friend from joining? If so, how do I fix this? If it isn't the problem, what else might cause the problem? More Info: My computer is Windows 7 and my friend's is Windows 8 whenever he tries to connect it says "failed to connect to server" the server.exe is 1.7.4 we are both using 1.7.4 this does not happen when someone else tries to connect with me


I only see 29 achievements for Bleed, but Steam says there's 32?

As I said, I can only count 29 achievements here, but Steam is telling me there's 32 of them. Am I missing something here, or is Steam just making a mistake? Are there hidden achievements or something? ![32?  I only count 29!](http://i.stack.imgur.com/8aZaW.png)

I wan't to keep Skitty in my main team for the majority of the game, but I'd like to know what moves should I teach or remove in order to make it as useful as possible? If it matters I'm going to be playing Pokemon White 2.


What could Executioner's Calling be used for?

I know Executioner's Calling reduces HP regeneration and healing, but who would this actually counter except for Dr. Mundo? I've seen this item built once even when I play Dr. Mundo pretty often. Can someone shed some light on this item?


How do gifts work, exactly?

In Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, the game tracks your relationship with various characters by a set amount of heart icons signifying how much that character likes you. While specific events throughout the game effect your relationships, the game lets you know pretty early on that it is possible to acquire specific items to use as gifts to improve your relationships with specific characters. The game also hints that certain events will only take place if you are friendly enough with specific characters. So far I have only come across two gift items, the "Ninjutsu Reference Book", which I have successfully given as a gift to Guy, and some item from the flower shop (I can't remember what it was at the moment. Some sort of bouquet naturally). I have been left with many a question regarding these gifts:   * Can a single item be used as a gift for multiple characters, or should I ignore it once I "figure out" what character it works with? (I see that I can buy multiple Ninjutsu Reference Book, but they are very pricy and I'd hate to buy one in vain).   * Can you gift a single character with the same item multiple times? If so, is there some sort of cool down?   * In the event that certain characters require several gifts to reach the best relationship level, how often can you gift them? Is this simply limited to the rate at which new/different gifts become available?   * Do you need gifts to get the best relationship level with all characters, or do some characters just end up liking you naturally through events/sidequests?   * Do all characters have specific locations in which they appear when you are between missions? The only opportunity I've seen so far to give a gift is to go up to a character and talk to it, but that would naturally be impossible if they can't be found anywhere.


How does in-game time correlate to real-life time when at The House?

I'm asking because I would like to know how long it takes before night comes (after waking up). Since the scares are more intense at night, and I'm easily scared - I'm trying to do as many of the goals as possible before night and go to sleep before any of the scares go on.


What should I do with schematics for the opposite faction?

I just had a lockbox come back with a schematic inside that is for a Jedi Consular (or other Republic side class). Being Sith, I have no use for this and presume selling it to be pointless, again, presuming as I can only sell to Sith on the GTN.   1. Is the assumption that I can only sell to the Sith side correct?   2. Is dumping the schematic the only real option? Found a post that indicates it may be possible to sell these, but, cannot confirm at the moment: > Investigation and Underworld Trading can yield schematics for the opposite > faction, making them useless to the player that received them and generally > unsellable because no one wants them (although they can be sold in Nar > Shaddaa to the opposite faction, but in general you can't).


How do you make an effective Minecraft mob trap?

Alright, so what's the best way to go about making a good mob trap in Minecraft? Here are some traits I'd like to have in the trap:   1. Easy to build. Although I have (or can easily obtain) whatever materials needed for a mob trap, I'd prefer it to be simple, as I have a talent for melting myself in lava, falling down extremely deep pits, and other unfortunate accidents.   2. Completely reliable. Preferably, once I build this trap, I'd like it to be mob-proof, with no chance of 3 spiders clogging the trap for an hour. Additionally (although this isn't quite so important), it would be nice for there to be an escape route, in case I accidentally fall into the trap myself.   3. Good item-gathering. Self-explanatory. I want the trap to gather all of the items (losing string I don't care about, but I want to collect all the useful drops like gunpowder and arrows), and deposit them via water/whatever method works at a nice drop- off point outside the trap. So, given these three preferred qualities, what would be some good traps for me to build?


Is investing money at the bank just a scam?

The teller at the bank offers the opportunity to invest twenty dollars. Both times I've done so, he's narrated a complicated sequence of dubiously legal transactions before informing me, in an appropriately sympathetic tone, that my money is all gone. Is this man a two bit swindler ripping off mute fourth graders because he knows they can't report him? Or is he really on the up and up and just dubiously competent? Can I ever invest my hard earned money profitably?


Where are the Kindergartners hiding?

I've been roped into a game of Hide and Seek with a bunch of four year olds, and I've managed to find five of them, but can't find the sixth. Where are they all hiding? Should I be able to find all six before recruiting Tweek, Craig, and Token? (I know that I can find five of them...)


How do I play against BloodSeeker?

Where can I find Jesus Christ?

Father Maxi has sent me off to find Jesus. I found him once already, doing a piss-poor job of 'hiding' in the Church, but now he's run off again, and I need to find him again. Where is he hiding?


Winterhold Radiant Quests Won't Start

I understand that when a magical skill such as Destruction reaches 90 you are supposed to be able to receive a special radiant quest from the master that skill (Faralda, in the case of Destruction) where the rewards are more powerful spells in the school. But though I have achieved a skill level of 90 or more in several different schools of magic, I canno get any of these quests to start. For instance, my illusion skill is 98 and the master of Illusion is Drevis Neloran, but no matter what I do or where he is I still can't get him to offer me the quest. The same is true for Destruction/Faralda and and the other schools of magic. Is there some other requirement I don't know about, or is there a console command or some such I can use to get these quests started when my skill levels are 90 or more?

What will happen when you light up all the torches in "On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 3"?

When you enter the Altair on the third floor, the Altair maiden suggests that these torches will light up after you reach every pin to it's maximum amount. After finishing the game I noticed that except one torch every other one lights up so I've had some fights in Colosseum and all of my pins reached > level 40. When I go to the Altair now, the maiden says: > a portal appeared but it seems to be incomplete What should I do next? Is there anything there to be found?

This is the exact opposite question of this question. My kids both have Android tablets and are playing Minecraft PE. They want me to join them on their PE world from my Windows PC over our LAN.

Fastest way to level pickpocket

So i have done lots and lots of research on how to level pickpocket fast, but im already a level 90 so im not going to pay the outrageous price to be trained, and i dont really want to spend like an hour just going around pickpocketing people, so are there any faster ways to level up pickpocket once im already 90?

Why was my treasure map removed?

Last night I was playing Skyrim, and after I went into Breezehome a message said "Treasure Map III Removed". Sure enough, it was gone. I reloaded, and tried again. Same result. I can go into any other location, but if I go into my house the same thing always happens. I figure this is a bug, but is there a trigger?


Skyrim Max general quest stats?

I would like to assess how far I am away from "completion" of the game as far as that is possible. I know that there are radiant quests that repeat endlessly, but I would like to know which of the quests stats in the "general stats" tab have a max value and what it is. I could not find a list so far on either of the two game wikis or elsewhere.


In Alien Swarm, is there an easier way to get rid of infestation/parasites other than massive healing?

I realize this is a fairly new game, but a handful of friends and I were playing last night and got to the first level where you can get "infested" by the parasite head-crab aliens. The game prompts you to heal to counter it, and even on normal difficulty our Medic was going through 2 group heal beacons each time just to prevent death. I feel like either we're missing something or this is just a rather annoying game mechanic that feels a tad overtuned at the moment. Note that our medic did not have the medic gun, as we weren't high enough level to unlock it yet.


How many concurrent players does a typical WoW server have?

WoW has a huge playerbase as we know, but how many average players are on a single WoW Realm at once? Is it higher than the average MMO (for example FFXI has 1500+ on a server at once). EVE Online wouldn't be a good comparison, as that is a single server/world for all players. Note: By server, I mean "Realm" or the sort and not physical server (as most MMO worlds are made up of multiple servers). I'm looking for sources such as interviews, development phase information, etc.


How do I stop townies running into a battle to collect gel/bones etc?

I'm playing towns and have got a nice little town sorted out. Each time I've mined down a few layers I uncover a sprawling dungeon, which my heros dutifully explore, killing enemies as they go. The problem is that once the first enemy is killed the townies decide to collect the loot and bring it back. Because they start this so soon there's often more enemies around making the collection run pretty dangerous.

My kids won't "go to bed when it's time"

My children in Skyrim sometimes do not follow their commands. I told both of them (Lucia and Blaise) to go to bed and they said "Yes, ma" and just stood there. My home is in Whiterun, with the name Breezehome. It gets quite annoying, especially when they block the entrance of their room and I can't get in to check their chests. If there is any way to stop it or fix it, I need to know. Or just a way to avoid it or how to ignore it would be useful, too. I am playing on the Xbox 360.


How do I research more rooms in Pocket Academy?

I have a number of rooms which I know are in the game because they show up in the spot guide. However, they don't show up in the list of rooms I can currently build, and are not available as options in the research menu. I haven't had any new options in the research menu appearing from year 5 to year 8, which I am currently on, other than those which I get from students who just graduated, like the bronze statue and similar. What do I do to unlock more research options?

How exactly do you go about disable "emulate format changes" in Dolphin?

I've been trying to emulate Mario Kart: Double Dash, on Dolphin, and am getting 10 FPS, and I was told by the state rating for the game to disable "emulate format changes."

There are powers and weapon modifications that affect the ammo capacity. I'm wondering whether those make even sense for your squad mates, if they ever run out of ammo? Do my squad mates have unlimited ammunition or can they run out of ammo?


Are there other 'casual outfits' available for Shepard?

Mass Effect 2 introduced the idea of additional, customizable 'casual' attire that Shepard could wear aboard the Normandy, as well as during visits to the Citadel and other non-combat locations. And like any good RPG, playing dress-up is first and foremost in my mind. ME2 didn't have any other options in the base game aside from the 4 that Shepard started with. **Other than the N7 Hoodie** , available as part of a Collectors Edition, are there any other casual attire options obtainable within ME3, **beyond the default five**?


How To Choose Between Two (Similar) Pokemon

I'm playing Pokemon Emerald, although this is generic to any pokemon game. My questions are really about two ways of picking Pokemon: **How do I pick Pokemon, at all?** I assume I should have some sort of strategy around ability types (eg. fire, electric) and weaknesses, and some sort of balance. How do I go about designing a basic party? Given that I have already decided on, say, a psychic or stone Pokemon, my next question is: **how do I pick between two similar-type Pokemon?** Let's say I have Ralts (psychic type), and now capture an Abra (psychic type). Both have different stats, moves, and evolutions; how do I decide which one to pick over the other? Do I look at moves? Weaknesses? Final evolutions?

What happens to players between missions?

After completing each mission or goal for the day, Neku usually has a dialogue with his partner. Occasionally, some Reaper activity is shown. The day abruptly ends and the next day begins. When the day begins, Neku's monologue always (particularly during the first few days) seems to indicate that he has no idea how he got to wherever he is. Is there any information regarding where the players go after missions are completed or how/why they are suddenly transported back to the starting point in the morning?


How to get down the streets in Chapter 4?

In Chapter 4, just after killing four guys in some wrecked building, Passos yells from a balcony that "there is a way down the street." But the guy isn't moving and he's blocking the way out. The only way I found to get outside it was by jumping on his left side. But after a short while, while going down the rusty stairs, I die without any reason, just like if some game script couldn't trigger properly... Is this a bug or glitch? Am I missing something? ![Passos blocking the way](http://i.stack.imgur.com/AB1hO.jpg)

Strategy that yields the most amount of credits for a floor

Anyone have done some analysis on what yield the most amount of credit given a long period of time? Assumptions:   1. I am constantly babysitting the game.   2. Max level bitizens on their dream jobs (all 3 of them).   3. Floor start with no orders, so need time for ordering. It is most profitable to order for 3 stars first, but it takes more time to order, and there is no productivity when ordering. On the other hand, ordering 1 star job means less profit.


How do I get the Cuirass of the Crusader back?

I completed the Knights of the Nine quest in TES IV: Oblivion, and got all the relics. I use them as my armor all the time. A while back I got arrested and the Cuirass disappeared. I gave up on looking for it, thinking that I may have sold it or stored it somewhere, and I thought I would cheat myself another one. I have been using `player.additem 01000ece` console command to get the first tier back. It keeps telling me that the object ID doesn't work. What is my problem here?


How to nerf ghasts with nethrar?

Nethrar is a bukkit plugin to offer a Netherworld experience in SMP. Unfortunately, worldguard doesn't seem to offer an anti-ghast-destruction option like the creeper option that prevents creeper's explosions from destroying blocks (but not players). > Is there a similar possibility for ghast explosions? I don't mind them and being (successfully) attacked is part of the game, but the destruction of my unfunished observation deck is a bit annoying...

Followers have gotten stuck and disappeared

So, Boone and Rex have been following me for some time now, and Boone is carrying quite a lot of valuables for me. All of a sudden...when I loaded up my game today....they were not behind me. I see their markers on a random spot on the map (that I had not travelled to yet), and I don't see them when I get there. Some kind of glitch, or am I missing something?


How do I kill someone with the repair tool?

I got the Back to Karkland map pack, and it added new "Assignments," which are like little quests you can do to unlock guns. For the engineer assignment, one of the tasks is to kill someone with the repair tool... do any of you have any advice for going about this? I'm under the impression the repair tool does almost no damage (though I could be wrong).


Is it effective to have my opponent arrested?

Some pesky citizens have started talking about elections, and many of them have already declared their intent to vote for a specific citizen rather than me. Luckily, my prison still has some space available... Since the elections haven't started yet, would it be beneficial to have the citizen that is planning to run against me arrested? Can he still run while in jail? If not, will whoever replaces him have the same support, or will it potentially decrease due to the imprisonment and potentially having a candidate that is not as good of a match for the opposition's ideals?


Is it recommended to upgrade runes below Ort?

Unless I've missed a Horadric Cube recipe, low end runes can only be upgraded to Ort, and Ort cannot be upgraded. Clearly storing runes and gems is a major challenge, is it wise to upgrade all the lower runes into Ort runes? Are they used often enough to be useful?


Will a pursuer that is locked on to you always kill you if you use a Smoke Bomb?

This has bothered me for a while now. Suppose you are being followed by your pursuer in multiplayer and you have the **Smoke Bombs** in your current ability set. Now your pursuer goes after you **Locked On** but you use a **Smoke Bomb** first to hopefully be able to counter. Will the pursuer always win and get the kill? Or will their nose be meeting my knee when I **Stun** them?


PSP screen doesn't turn on but the rest of the system is working

How does Grim Harvest work?

The Grim Harvest rune for the Threatening Shout reads: "Enemies are badly shaken and have a 15% chance to drop additional treasure". What is meant by "treasure" here? Does that mean that the enemy is more likely to drop magic, rare, or legendary loot, or is it just referencing gold?

Openttd: Why do I have a poor station rating for an industry that has closed?

I have station built near a city and it was happily transporting passengers, mail, and iron ore. A while back, the iron ore mine shut down and disappeared from the map. I sold off the train hauling the iron ore after making sure I transported the last ton out of the station. Recently, I checked my station rating for transport services and noticed that while I'm doing fine on passengers and mail, there is still a rating for Iron Ore: Very Poor (22%). Why, if there is no longer any trains servicing that industry type, no quantity of that type of commodity 'waiting' and no longer any industry within the station catchment area, does it still show on my station rating? I just didn't want a poor rating to affect my overall station rating and my local authority rating with the town.


Can I gain access to the Thieves Guild treasury?

I've completely finished the Thieves Guild quest line, which means I'm now Guild Master. Up until this point, I've had access to a very empty treasury. Now that I'm leader, I've noticed that the treasury has now been locked again and needs a key in order to be opened. Is there a way to gain access to the treasury? If so, what kind of loot is hiding behind the locked door? In other words, is it worth breaking in? ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Degeg.jpg)


How to micro infestors most effectively

I've been trying to get better with infestor usage. If I have just a couple of infestors, I seem to be able to use them OK against marine balls with a double-fungal. When I start getting 5+ infestors and trying to use them with zergling/roach to take on protoss balls/terran mech thor/hellion/tank compositions I am running into problems. I normally have my lings/roaches on 1/2 and infestors on 3. I try to engage with lings/roaches and then tell the infestors to fungal, but with the delay from individual infestors moving into range and casting, the fungal doesn't always land on the targeted units. Another problem is I frequently in the heat of battle end up mis-selecting and instead of my 3-f-click-f-click-f-click casting three fungals, I select some other unit by mistake and then my infestors proceed to mill around and die. Before the neural parasite range nerf, I found it easy and effective vs void rays, tanks, colossuses etc. With the new short range I cannot seem to find a use for it. Any advice? Finally with infested terrans it can be hard to spawn large numbers of eggs quickly, resulting in infestors being killed with high energy. I tired right clicking then shift+t queuing up large numbers, but then the infestors all cluster in a huddle trying to move into the "firing" position one at a time resulting in a slow deployment. Thanks!


Command Block Problem

I'm new to Command Blocks in Minecraft and want to solve this problem: If X players in radius Y around the command block, then output power. I read a bit about `testfor` and tried things like `testfor @p[r=5,c=2]` which I hoped would only output power if there are at least 2 players in a radius of 5. Doesn't work. Then I only tried `testfor @p[r=5]` and added a comparator block at the end and hoped it would output as much power players are in the given radius. Doesn't work. How can I actually test how many players are in a specific radius? How do I only output power if a given number of players is passed?

In Assassin creed how do we know we're not in combat already in avoid combat secondary objective?

Sometimes I finish a memory. No body saw me. Some yellow blip happen but that's it. I never pull out my sword. I finish the memory but I do not know if my secondary objective is fulfilled or not. After a long time I saw that it's not. How can we always check whether we have already been in combat or not or whether our secondary objective is fulfilled or not earlier? For example, Memory 01: Black Bart's Gambit I think I am not seen but that avoid combat objective is never fulfilled. What count as combat anyway? Sometimes soldiers see me, turn red, and I hide, and kill the guy silently. That still doesn't count as combat.

On the Mii plaza puzzles, when using coins to generate puzzle pieces, is it possible to get duplicate pieces?

> **Possible Duplicate:**   >  What do those different symbols on achievements mean? What are the stars with the numbers by them on the achievements panel? Is this how many of my RealID friends have completed the achievement? It seems like it is, but looking through the achievements, it seems like some of them should have been completed by more people, so I'm not sure. ![Cropped screenshot of the achievement screen; highlighted are a star and the number six on the row for the Moneybags achievement \(Pick up 100,000 gold\) and a star and the number 1 on the row for The Comfort of Strangers achievement \(Recruit the Templar, Scoundrel, and Enchantress\).](http://i.stack.imgur.com/FJ7tR.jpg)


What are the stars on some Diablo 3 achievements?

Civ IV Best Production Choice In Specialized Cities?

When playing Civilization IV and trying to conform to the specialized cities strategy, the situation invariably arises where I have too many military units or run out of buildings that are geared towards the city's specialization (at least until new technologies are discovered). In those cases, I usually pick one of the buildings that don't necessarily belong to the specialized chain until a more appropriate building type comes along. The end result is that usually as we get towards the end of the game, most of the cities have all the buildings that can be built, and it seems like no cities are specialized at all. My question: Is this a good strategy or does buying a barracks in an economic city or buying a factory in a military city etc... cause problems with the specialized city strategy (i.e. slower production/growth)? Is it better if I simply switch to gold, research or culture generation until an appropriate building/unit becomes available? I'm relatively new to the game and this technique works at the lower difficulty levels, but I was wondering if it is an optimal strategy or not.

Make an infinite supply of snowballs

How could I use a command to give a player an infinite supply of snowballs that do 5 hearts of damage? There was a bug where you could summon infinite items in snapshot 13w36a, which right here:               /summon Item ~ ~ ~ {Item:{id:<id>,count:128}}      The item count is set to 128, which is what I believe causes this glitch, Unfortunately after reading around a bit, I was led to believe that this bug was patched, due to being prevelant in a development snapshot. So, how could I summon an infinite supply of snowballs that do 5 hearts of damage?

Is it possible to watch Assassin's Creed Revelation's last cutscene without restarting a new game? (Spoiler)

I've completed AC Revelations. I want to watch Revelation's last cutscene, > where it is seen that the Earth is nearly destroyed. It is possible to replay any mission from DNA menu. I played the very last mission but the game takes me back to DNA menu before starting the cutscene. Is it possible to watch it again from the game without completing it another time?


Is it possible for a failed mod install to corrupt a world that is not opened?

I know that if I either install a mod incorrectly or install a broken mod, it can corrupt my save data. However, is this corruption limited to any saves that I access, or can it occur in a world file that I don't even open with the mod installed? I would like to know this because I tend to be a bit careless with backing up my saves, instead I just create a world I will use only for that mod, so it can't impact my other saves. Is this still putting my saves at risk, or are they safe as long as I don't actually play in them?


Can Entangling Shot - Shock Collar be extended indifinitely?

Now Entangling Shot's duration on an enemy can be extended by shooting Entangling Shot on any enemy before it wears off. Would the damage per second (80% weapon damage over 2 seconds in this patch) of the Shock Collar rune be also extended on all the enemies entangled (and that get refreshed)?
