How to defeat the Stalker solo as a Rhino?

I'm a reactor'd level 30 Rhino with high shields, health, and around 1400 damage block on my Iron Skin. I use the Karak, Lex, and Galatine as weapons. The only other ability I use is Rhino Stomp. All my abilities cost half of the base energy price. I have faced the Stalker two times using this build, and have been absolutely destroyed each time, soloing. I am prepared to build energy and health restores. How can I defeat him?


How have the calculations to determine Hidden Power's type changed with the introduction of Fairy?

I've been looking into getting a specific type for Hidden Power, but the best I can find is the (now outdated) Smogon Hidden Power Guide. The Sixth Generation of Pokemon has introduced the Fairy type, throwing the value-table out of whack. So, what are the values needed to get particular types?

PSN wrongly claims multiple downloads

I am a gamer on PS3 in India, having a PS+ subscription. Now, I lent my ID and password to a friend(let's call him R), since PSN allows for a game to be downloaded on 2 PS3s at once. The problem occurred when a second friend(let's call him S) wanted in. The PSN Game, Gaucamelee, was a game he wanted, and R hadn't even touched. So, this morning, S logged into my account. Both R and I were offline. When he tried to download the game, he was given a message that the game is active on 2 PS3s, and cannot be downloaded on the third. This is false. Also, when he tried to download another game (Bioshock Infinite), which hadn't been activated by either of us, he got the same message again. This time, on PSN, it said that the game had not been Purchased, but when he tried to download, BOOM. Activated on 2 systems, magically. How do I resolve this?


When is split-pushing/backdooring a good option?

Is it ever a good idea to split-push? I mean, every time there's a chance someone gets caught and it ends up being a 4v5 team fight. Is there ever a justifiable reason to split-push (or backdoor) in a game?


What strategies assist in destroying a team's nexus?

I have been playing LoL for a little over a month, and I thought that the strategy of the game was to destroy the other team's nexus without losing yours. However, I've been watching league games, and they hide in bushes and take golems from across the river and the announcers are always talking about gold. Why? Am I wrong about LoL? Is there really more to it than just destroying the enemy nexus? Is League of Legends really an in-depth strategy game, or do they hide and take golems to just have more fun?


Can't connect in Forged Alliance Forever (FAF)

I successfully installed FAF, and managed to set up an account. On two occassions I also managed to enter the game lobbies. However, in every other case, I just get presented with the "Connecting" screen. Here is what I have tried so far:   * Toggling Windows Firewall   * Toggling UPnP option   * Toggling router UPnP   * Toggling router Trigger Forwarding for UDP port 6112 Any ideas as to what else I could try?

Should I keep caged prisoners?

I've captured goblins with caged traps. I've already stolen all their stuff like explained here, but now I don't know what to do with them. Maybe my Dwarfs are happy seeing caged prisoners, but I'm not sure. If I have to kill them, how do I do it?


Is there any point to playing Lineage II casually?

Since it's the only MMORPG I ever found appealing, I'm considering playing Lineage II a bit. However, in many MMORPGs, sooner or later there comes a time when you can do nothing as an individual, since everything is aimed at larger groups; and I'm not willing to coordinate my already schedule with a bunch of strange people. Is there enough content for me, as a single player?   If not, how many teammates would I need to actually enjoy playing?


How does Steam set a game's background in the Library?

Lately, I realized, that the background of a game in the Steam Library changes from time to time, and I swear, I once even recognized the background somehow from a scene I've been to in a game. So, how does Steam set the game's background? Does it secretly take screen-shots while I am playing, or use preset images, or is it just random?


SC2 keeps asking for authenticator code (new 'intelligent' login feature not working anymore)

I'm using Blizzard Authenticator and Starcraft II login screen prompts me each time to enter the code. Everything would appear to be fine, unfortunately it isn't: Blizzard recently announced that they have updated the authentication system to intelligently track login locations and, if one is consistently connecting from the same place, may not be asked for an authenticator code. **That new feature worked flawlessly for a few days, but suddenly it stopped.** Nothing changed in my machine, and I'm using the very same computer to play. I'm being prompted again to enter the code every time, even after watching a legacy replay. I want to find out what's causing the problem. I would really appreciate any advice you may have. **UPDATE** : I have a static IP (Sorry I didn't mention that sooner)


Can I use a macro to leave a group?

If I join a pick-up group, I generally try to see the dungeon or raid through to the end, but sometimes circumstances make that impossible. Maybe my guild is convening for a raid, or maybe I haven't paid as much attention to the clock as I should have, so I need to hearth out and list my items on the AH before quitting for the day. In circumstances like these, it'd be handy to have a button that simultaneously announces that I'm leaving, apologizes, and explains that I have to go do something else before dropping me from the group and activating my hearthstone (which I can then choose to either permit to complete the cast, or move to interrupt as needed). The explanation/apology part is easy; I just include two lines prefaced with /p as normal. Is there a command to leave the party, though? I tried this:               /p I'm so sorry, but my wife needs me to leave, so I'm going to have to stop here.     /p Thanks again for grouping with me.     /leaveparty     /leave      Neither /leaveparty nor /leave accomplished anything, though. Any ideas what I should do instead? How about for activating my hearthstone?

Why am I cutting off heads?

I have several hours of gameplay under my belt and have enjoyed using the finishing move when I kill people. However, instead of running people through to finish them off, my character has started cutting off their heads. Does anyone know if this is a reflection on my characters personality (good/evil), or could it be because I recently got to level 25?


Titanfall "I've seen it all achievement" still track if you regenerate (prestige)

At level 50, I've unlocked all equipment for the "All the Hardware" achievement and kept track of the levels I've played so far but i want to make sure I can now regenerate. Looking around I've found a lot of people say "it's probably fine" and one person say "it's not fine" but with no more explanation. Anyone have any experience of this or any proper evidence?

I have bough Guild Wars 2 Heroic Edition and I have got that items, that can change the way that armor looks, I'm only level 10 and I'm not sure how does this armor works.

Transfer Mii from Wii U to the virtual Wii on the same console

I spent many hours crafting the perfect Mii for my Wii U console. Then I run the virtual Wii mode on that console. I was hoping my Mii would appear there too, but it doesn't. Is there any way to copy the Mii from the Wii U mode to the Wii mode on the same console? Note: There are a lot of similar questions on here about transferring Miis from a physical Wii to/from a Wii U console, or virtual Wii, but I can't find a question that refers to transferring Miis between the two modes on the same console.


How to prevent water from freezing

In one of my worlds I built a house on the top of a mountain. When starting to build a wheat farm, I found out that the water keeps freezing, and I have to break the ice blocks: ![here is the current situation](http://i.stack.imgur.com/76v2d.png) Does wheat grow even if it is near ice instead of water? If not, how can I prevent the water from freezing?


Is Barrage worth it?

In Borderlands, there are four classes. One of those classes is Roland the Soldier. His action skill is to deploy a turret. One of his skills is called Barrage and it "increases the number of shots your Scorpio Turret fires in each burst. +1 Shots fired per burst" per skill point assigned to a natural maximum of 5. The delay between each burst is about 3 seconds. The Scorpio Turret despawns after a certain amount of time which never varies. I believe that the default number of shots fired per burst is 3. I would've titled the question something like "does Barrage shoot more bullets overall", but I went with something more general. How effective is Barrage, objectively speaking? Does it double the turret's offensive capability? Does it actually detract from it, such as if the Scorpio Turret cannot switch targets per burst, and each burst usually kills a target in less than 4 shots? That's just an example; I know that the Scorpio Turret switches targets as soon as the one that it's aiming at dies, regardless of whether or not it's in the middle of burst fire.


Dead Eye mode doesn't use ammo in Red Dead Redemption?

I was trying to pass the 10th level of the Sharpshooter challenge, which is to disarm 6 opponents without changing weapons or reloading. This could be a bit tricky, except I noticed when I was using the deadeye mode and taking a shot, it didn't lower my ammo count. I could (and did) take about 10 shots from my 6 shot revolver, one deadeye run at a time, and I still had all my bullets. Made the challenge pretty easy, once I realized it. I assume this is a bug...has anyone else encountered this?

Is it possible to convert the type of a Minecraft world?

I have built a train station in the "redstone-ready" superflat world preset, and I was wondering if I could change the world type so all new chunks are normal world chunks, instead of superflat chunks. I don't want the train to just run through a superflat world, it is too boring. Is this possible? If so, how would one go about doing it?


What does *Scepter Upgradable* mean?

A lot of skills have different effects under this Scepter Upgradable condition. I'm new to the game, and I don't know what this means. For instance, the Venomancer's Poison Nova reads the following:   _SCEPTER UPGRADABLE: Increases damage and duration, and decreases cooldown._


How does one win 2048 - Multiplayer

Emil Stolarsky made a multiplayer version of the popular game 2048. I have played it many times, but I still can't figure out how to win. It's not based directly off of highest score, biggest tile, fastest to get to a certain score/tile, etc. Sometimes even _both_ players win. Does anyone know how to win at 2048 - Multiplayer?

What's the layer limit where overlapping fields no longer get darker on the intel map or the radar? I heard once that it's 8 layers but I can't be sure about it. I've haven't built more than 8 layers yet and didn't pay attention before to notice the difference.


Does wearing mail-only armor as a hunter give you any benefits?

Please feel free to change the question title, I wasn't sure how to ask. I'm playing as a hunter and I just reached level 40, the thing is, I'm currently using leather heirloom armor which was originally created for rouges (at least I think so). Now, with level 40, I would have the option to use mail armor, but since I don't have mail heirloom armor, I asked myself if its a good idea to continue using my leather armor or if I lose any benefits for not wearing a full mail set?

Merging save files

My primary save file is currently on my Wii U. Out of things to do when out of the house, I decided to make another save file on my 3DS. After playing for a bit, I wondered if it was possible to merge the two separate save files into one, using the transfer data program. Is this possible or would one save file overwrite the other during the transfer process?


How do I install a .jar Minecraft mod on a Mac with OSX Maverick?

Everywhere that I have looked the instructions were either out of date, aimed towards Windows users, or were for installing mods that were in .zip files. I have a Mac that runs OSX Maverick and I have Minecraft version 1.7.10. The mod that I want to use is "Still Hungry" and it is a .jar when downloaded. I've tried Minecraft Forge, Magic Launcher, and mcpatcher with no success. I also don't have a minecraft.jar file or a bin file so if anyone could help with this issue without having to use a minecraft.jar file or a bin file it would be greatly appreciated!

Do the "catchable" types of fish vary by time of day?

Once you have obtained the Fisherman Cabin, fish begin to appear in the river for you to catch. You get to catch 3 fish, and then the season is over for 3 hours (where you can't catch fish and you have to wait). The fish you catch seem to be somewhat random, but I've noticed that I tend to catch fish which look like an anglerfish only when it is night. Is it just luck, or do some fish only appear at certain times of day?

Progressive difficulty of leveling up skills - or not? (TES3: Morrowind)

I've looked on the UESP Wiki and extensively DuckDuckGo'd for the answer to this, to no avail. In Oblivion and Skyrim, skills "level up"/increase progressively "slower" - e.g., you need to make more hits to go from "Random Weapon" 99 to 100 than you need for 9 to 10. However, as far as I can tell, Morrowind has each level require 100 "points", which are given statically (e.g., most weapons add 1 point per successful hit). Am I not seeing something, or is it really 100 hits to go from "Random Weapon" 9 to 10 and equally so 100 hits to go from "Random Weapon" 99 to 100?


Is there a mod or console command which will allow me to push followers out of the way?

Right, so I read the similar question and the answers were pretty much everything I've done to get past them. What I want to know is if there is a console command or mod or something else that lets you push these nefarious followers out of your way. By followers I mean everything: followers, thralls, dogs, atronachs, etc. To emphasize: I'm aware of ways to make them to move somewhere specific, what I want is a way to enable me to **push** them out of the way or move **through** them or otherwise keep them entirely out of the way.

How to deal with limited Human Effigies

This is more of a general question, but I have a real problem with the way this game handles the difficulty. Back in the first Dark Souls, humanity wasn't growing like weeds, but there were ways to either farm it or get more then enough to survive on while you're playing. You're also not given as much of a penalty for being hollow, other then not being able to summon. However, in Dark Souls 2, it's gotten harder AND they've increased the penalties of being hollow. Before, I read that the more hollow you are, the less likely people are to invade you, as well as it being less likely that you'll find a summon sign. However, I'm finding that you NEVER can find a summon sign. And, what's more, I've found myself invaded harder the more hollow I am. Am I missing something here? I know it's supposed to be harder, but with no way of getting your human body back easily, this makes the game more frustrating and tedious then it is fun. How do I deal with the fact that I have a very limited supply of human effigies? Before, simply helping someone kill a boss got you your human form back. Now, it only gets you souls, so you can't get your human form to help beat your own boss.

How can you saturate mineral fields effectively?

I know that you should have 3 workers on each mineral to harvest it most effectively, but how can you manage how many workers you have to use per base? The number should obviously be 3 x mineral patch, but how can you easily keep track of that quantity? How can you re-build them (reaching again optimum quantity) after some of them being killed? If some patches are depleted, how can you easily transfer some of them to an expansion (leaving some to finish off the ones that are not depleted)? When you expand, should you build workers from that base once it finishes building or transfer some from the main base? I think that with those questions I'm asking for a drone/SCV/probe guide.


Civilization V Gold

I loaded Civilization V onto my window 8 PC last December and everything worked fine. I purchased Civilization V GOLD from best buy.

I used the windows 8 uninstall option, then I reloaded Gold, I got the same results. How do I get the GOLD options to replace the original Civilization V program? Thanks

How can I make the transmute spell more useful for producing silver ore?

The transmute spell allows you to convert any iron ore in your inventory into silver ore and any silver ore into gold ore. This is pretty useful for turning a quick profit crafting jewellery. However as it converts them in that order (1 iron --> 1 silver --> 1 gold) rather than repeating the conversion of iron to silver until you have no iron left than starting converting silver to gold, it is therefore awkward to make a large quality of silver. Like everyone else, I've been forced to drop the silver ore crafted after each transmute, however as I'm on PS3 this is very clunky (requiring several button presses) and not entirely reliable (sometimes dropping random items instead of the silver when the menu position has changed for reasons unknown). Has anyone found a more efficient way to do this? I'd imagine on PC you could set up some kind of macro, is there anything similar I can do on PS3 to stop me going insane?


Do traps improve when you level the ability after you place them?

For example, if I place a Yordle Snap Trap and then put a point into that ability, will the placed snap trap benefit from the higher level when it is activated?


Is it possible to disarm or safely set off traps that I can see on the ground?

In some areas there are traps that I can clearly see on the ground. ![a bear trap](http://i.stack.imgur.com/fVY7p.png)   _Yep, I see you..._ I want to disarm or set them off safely but I can't (that way I don't accidentally walk into them the next time I'm in the area). All of these I've tried does nothing and provides no options and usually just hurts me:   * Sneaking up to it   * Walking up to it   * Running onto it   * Moving around with a shield   * Attacking it   * Using spells/abilities on it I figure I could probably lure enemies onto it but I usually kill them off before I ever encounter these. Is there anything I can do to disarm or set these off safely?


Is it possible to use the new Rock Band 3 instruments cross-console?

If I have the Wii version of the peripherals, is it possible to use them with my Xbox 360? The reason I think this would be possible is because they are midi-capable instruments that can be plugged into my computer and work fine there, and they communicate to the Wii using a USB dongle. Since the Xbox has USB ports as well, it is physically possible to connect them to my Xbox without any further modifications. Will they actually work to play the game, however? **Is there some way I can make them work if it's not just as simple as plug and play?** I am willing to spend money on a third-party peripheral to "translate" if necessary for this functionality.


Does running from wild Pokemon increase the amount of times wild Pokemon appear?

It always feels like if I run away from a couple of battles in a row with wild Pokemon, then I end up having to battle wild Pokemon every few steps, whereas if I just battle them and get it over with, I might not battle another for quite a while. Is there actually a relationship between running and more Pokemon appearing? Or is this just an example of confirmation bias on my part?


When and how are Binding of Isaac floors generated?

I guess it's based on random number generator, but when does the engine generate new floors? Just before entering the trapdoor, during the animation or during the cutscene? Or maybe are all floors generated at the beginning? Same thing goes for items in item rooms and shops. Are they based on frame number, RNG, or preset during level generation?

What time was my Xbox 360 switched on?

Last night, somebody stole one of my Xbox 360 wireless controllers, switching my Xbox on in the process. It would be helpful to know what time my Xbox was switched on, as that would tell me (and the police!) what time the burglery occured. The Xbox is still on, sitting at the dashboard. Is there any was I can see how long I've been idle for? Can my friends see this? Thanks in advance. Edit: Even though I now have the rough time that my Xbox was switched on, it would be useful if I could see the exact time. Is there a way to see the last few times you logged onto Xbox Live?


Is the LOTRO data available?

I played Eve for a while and the community produced a lot of tools based on the data that CCP released to the public. The data included stats on ships, modules, mobs, skills, etc. And players created all kinds of tools to help with planning your ship loadouts and your learning plan. Is there a similar resource for Lord of the Rings Online? I realize LOTRO is more role-playing oriented, meaning that people should spend less time tweaking and more time taking part in the community. It would also contain quite a bit of spoilers for the people who like to be surprised with new items. So I can understand if Turbine won't release any of the data. But are there any reliable sources for this data besides Turbine themselves then? The data has to be structured (in a relational database or XML or any other usable structure).


Are crypts "rerolled" if I logout while looking for Leoric's crown?

While on the quest for King Leoric's crown, I had to logout twice, each time after exploring a different crypt. Is it possible that the correct crypt has been rerolled, meaning that I have to explore again those two, or I can skip those and keep going on my quest?

How do I always see all items on the ground?

I can hold `Alt` to show the items around me, but is there a way to keep this display on at all times? I try to collect everything to sell, use, or disenchant, so it shouldn't be a distraction.


Pausing Diablo III

In the original games you could pause single player. In Diablo III, you are always connected and there is no real "single player" mode. Is it still possible to pause the game? I haven't been game (no pun intended) to test it out in anger.


Shield destruction order

When multiple shields are deployed on a portal, does the order of deployment or slot position affect which one gets destroyed first? e.g. if a VR is placed before a C, would that have a higher chance to disintegrate earlier vs having the C placed first? Note that Does the order of Portal Shields matter? is a different question which asks about mitigation and not destruction order.


Binding mouse buttons with Razer DeathAdder not working

I am playing Diablo 3 and it appears that binding actions to left and right click on the Razer DeathAdder work just great. However, as soon as I want to bind keys to the buttons on the side of the mouse, it will not take hold. Is there a way to enable those additional buttons on Razer mice so we can bind them and use them in D3? I use this mouse extensively in world of warcraft and it works just great otherwise.


Are dropped items accessible to the other faction?

I have a few items I would like to make available to my faction. The only drop points where my paths cross with other faction members are highly public transport hubs in my city. Is it safe to drop items in public or will they be available to members of the other faction that happen to go through the area as well? Should we use secure messaging to coordinate drops at an off-beat location or are drops only visible to our faction anyway?


How can I organise the Bag in Pokemon X/Y?

Is there a way to organise the items within each of the sections of the bag in Pokemon X and Y? Examples:   * Order TMs Alphabetically   * Order TMs by Number   * Order Pokeballs by Sell Price/Quality


Where are all the Mad Memoirs?

Part of the Shadow of the Mad King event involves using the Candy-Powered Matter Meter to scan suspicious locations and find ghosts. These ghosts then tell a story and give you a Mad Memoirs item. There appear to be six of these in total. Where do I have to go to find the ghosts and get all six items?


What treasure am I missing?

I've decided to go for 100% completion in _Dust: An Elysian Tail_. So far everything's been going fairly smoothly. There is, however, one exception. I seem to be missing a single item from a single room, and I am completely unable to find it. Here's the room in question, highlighted by a bright red circle: ![Map showing the area in question](http://i.stack.imgur.com/dGub4.jpg) This map is not my map. My map has the incomplete O in it. I found the treasure chest easily enough, but it's still saying there's something here. **Where can I find my treasure?**


Can you win ship achievements using the TYPE B layouts?

There are three achievements for each ship; you start with the **TYPE A** layout, and when you have completed two of the three achievements, you unlock the type **TYPE B** layout for that ship. If you are trying to get the third ship achievement (just for the sake of completeness), can you use the **TYPE B** layout to do so, or can achievements only be won with the "default" **TYPE A** layout?


Which is the best way to level up a Pokemon?

At the moment I am using this strategy:   * Pokemon as the first in party (engaging in all fights, even when I need to switch for a more powerful/better suited Pokemon).   * Exp.Share equipped.   * Fighting the Elite Four + Champion (30 Pokemon with range of 7x) This strategy works great when I am leveling a low level Pokemon. I tested with Sawk level 18, and he finished at level 82 after one pass (all 5 trainers). But with Ho-Oh 82 I only got to level 87 (I was expecting 89 or 90). I know that the amount of experience is different, but am I doing it right?   * Should I go full fights with a high level Pokemon (even with disadvantage elements)?   * Should I use Lucky Egg instead of Exp.Share?   * Should I use some other method? How can I improve my technique?


Can Black/White 2 interact with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness?

I have White 2 and my brother has Explorers of Darkness. Can we interact with each other with said games?


Why is magic so exhausting?

I just rolled my second Wizard character, and I'm going around blithely killing enemies with my Magic Missiles. However, I'm seeing a message I never saw with my first character who used this spell. > Do you want to exhaust yourself casting this spell? [y/N] If I choose yes, I receive another message. > Part of your life energy is drained while casting the spell! My HP decreases in order to cast the spell. What is causing this? Is my Concentration too low to cast spells in quick succession like on my last wizard?


Why am I flashing while walking?

Sometimes when I am walking (outside of a town, on the world map), my character will flash white. Does this mean anything? Or is it just a graphical glitch somewhere?


How do I be less on fire?

On a few occasions now, I've encountered enemies wielding a gun that shoots _fire_. Symptoms of being on fire include barbecuing to death. The speed of said barbecuing varies on whether or not you continue to be beset by the wielder of the mysterious flame-gouting weapon. When I have managed to escape, I remain aflame, and still die. How do I put myself out? _How do I be less on fire?_


What does the combo counter improve?

Cthulhu Saves the World is advertised to feature a combo-based combat system. Each attack carries a number of hits increasing a combo counter. Certain 'final' abilities reset the combo counter and a few of them are more powerful the higher the combo counter. Many boss fights can be won by using tentacles, lightning, multi-strike, +1 hit passives, etc., to boost this counter very quickly, then using Deathblow to deal thousands of damage in one attack. Is this all? Does the combo counter also improve normal attacks or other stats?


Cancelling a damaged building in Starcraft 2

I know that cancelling an unfinished building gives you back 75% of the resources you invested. However, I have the feeling that if an unfinished building is attacked, the percent of damage received is also substracted when cancelled. Can anyone confirm that? Anyway, I think that's only fair. If not, you could constantly build pylons (for example) in your opponent's main, forcing him to stop mining, at only the cost of 25 minerals...


Is teleporting possible?

Between what heights will "Jungle" biome trees grow to? I'm curious because sometimes I get really short awkward trees, and at times I get huge trees with multiple layers of leaves. Is there a minimum height or maximum height?


People are asking me questions. Do my answers matter?

After I left the first tutorial area, I got asked three questions about what I valued, what I wanted, and what I was afraid of. I said I valued friendship, I wanted to broaden my horizons, and I was afraid of being indecisive. Do these answers matter? Do they make any significant changes to the game?


How can I be downgraded to a lower league?

Last season in Starcraft 2 I was ranked into platinum by deploying a simple Zerg rush strategy. I have not played since then, and I just got back into SC2 wanting to play a more realistic strategy. The problem is that after my placement game, in which I was destroyed, I have been placed in the diamond league. Every game I am utterly destroyed by players over and over again. How many times do I need to lose before I can be downgraded to a lower league?


What's the difference between experience and fame?

I just got level 20 with my mage and the top bar just changed from experience to fame. The odd thing is that fame seems to be always at the same level, it never increases. Who can explain what's happened? Is level 20 the maximum? And how to increase fame?

Are animals attracted to light?

Sometimes, on the first day or so in Minecraft, when I'm obsessed about killing mobs for food, I find that, at night, animals tend to flock towards light sources For example, day 1, I built a house on the beach, and set up a couple of torches. I went outside, and there were some animals that were making their way towards the torches, and spent the rest of the night around them. Was this by chance? Or are there factors (besides Wheat) that determines where animals move towards?

Where is "Major Kyle"?

On the "Major Kyle" assignment, I successfully landed on Presrop and found a building in which I had a conversation with a guard over intercom. After using my "Charm" skill, I was able to enter the building and nobody attacked me. When I look at the map, I see an orange symbol in the upper left room,I checked both rooms (on each level) and Major Kyle is not there nor anything that may help me to finish this assignment. Is that a Bug or the Major is hiding elsewhere?


Skyrim see through textures.

Every since I updated my CCC for my AMD Radeon I have been able to see through my character's Armor, Hair, and other creature (creatures? features?). This has happened in Skyrim and World of Warcraft. I have tried a couple of fixes myself. > WoW:   > > >   * I changed the Direct X from 10 to 11. (This solution worked.) >    > Skryim: > >   * I have tried overriding the game specific's for the graphics with CCC... > no luck. >   * I have uninstalled CCC all together which caused the game to go back to > normal. (So it had to be the latest update) > I would love to just keep it gone but I don't see why I should. I would like to know if anyone else had a similar problem, and how they managed to fix it. I dont mind deleting the program but I would like to know what is doing this and how to fix it incase such a thing were to happen again in the future.


Difficulty installing The 7th Guest on DOSBox

I am having difficulty running a game using DOSBox. The problem begins after I begin the installation. It runs through fine, until it asks which drive I would like to copy the files to. It only shows Z, but not the mounted drive I selected (say H) for my DOS games directory. My only choice is to select the Z drive, however it the tells me that it does not have enough space for the copies. This is ultimately the issue. The exact error message is: "The drive you have selected does not have enough free space to install The 7th Guest. Please select another drive or exit and increase the free space on this drive". There is also a second box on the right saying: "Space Remaining On Drive: < 5 Thousand Bytes." Prior to that, is a screen asking me to select a drive. The only drive on the list is "Z:". Is it possible to increase the size of the Z drive that DOSBox automatically creates? Or, is there a way of using the drive I mounted? It does not appear on the "Select Hard Drive" inside the installation. I have considered compiling it from source, and taking a look at the code seeing if I can hack it. Of course, that is only if there is no easier solution. I am trying to run The 7th Guest, a fantastic puzzle game. I am running DOSBox on Linux, Ubuntu 11.10 to be exact. The version of DOSBox I am running is 0.74.

There are so many different spells and skills to choose from that I'm having a hard time finding which ones exist to support different strategies. Early on I'd like to focus on skills that either directly or indirectly make my hero level up faster (trying to slingshot into some of the higher level skills). What skill choices exist to help me do this?

Where can I find a list of unlock conditions for ingredients?

I'm stuck at a point in my game where my ingredients don't seem to be good enough to win any contests (namely, the first maki challenge, and the 4 star contests). My sushi-chefs are mostly level 8-9 and I don't have anything else to research. I have all the ingredients/PR, etc that I can currently get. No matter what I try, I can't win first place in the contests without better ingredients. Where can I find the conditions required to unlock them?


How do you survive the skyfall cheat?

While playing GTA5, I came across a cheat called skyfall on the XBox360. After playing around with it and having a laugh, I managed to accidentally survive the cheat. When using the skyfall cheat, you will spawn in the air WITHOUT a parachute and you will fall and inevitably die when you hit the ground. However, is there a way to survive this cheat? I have heard of people doing it but I never found out how.


How does the elemental DoT of two weapons of the same element stack?

I already understand how overtime dmg/sec works for elemental weapons (Shock/Corrosive/Fire), but if I decide to switch between two weapons of the _same_ element, such as the Heartbreaker (81.6 dmg/sec) and the Gospel (180.4 dmg/sec), both fire, and shot the _same_ enemy, would the damage stack? Replace the other?


How do I install Sims 3/Origin?

I bought Sims 3 and Sims 3 pets for my PC, and it worked for the first couple of days, then it said I didn't have Origin and I couldn't play it. I have tried to re-install Origin but it still says I don't have it. I then uninstalled all Sims and Origin from my computer, and then I tried to reinstall Sims. The problem is, when I click the 'install' button, it does nothing. The page just disappears and nothing happens. Can you help me, please?

Dwarf refuses to stay in hospital until she has recuperated

Two dwarfs were seriously injured. They were treated by a doctor in the hospital, but for some reason both of them suddenly left and started working again. The body part list shows both "lower body" and "right upper leg" in red, and the description states that her lower body is cut open, her kidney is broken etc. Why did she leave the hospital? Will she recover while working or should I try to force her back in bed again?

Can you change your faction without rerolling your character? How? If so, can you access faction-exclusive cutscenes for content you've missed? (The only real compelling reason to change factions short of PvP, I suppose).


How do I get the last prism in Winners?

There is a prism hiding behind the wall towards the end of Winners, and I have no idea how to get it. The best strategy I could think of was to try and get some edge time on one of the moving panels near the prism and then change to another panel mid-air, but I'm not even sure if you can switch from edge time on one panel to edge time on another panel that quickly. Does anybody have an idea?


Can I imbue more than once on the same difficulty level in Diablo 2?

After getting the Horadric Malus and bringing it back to Charsi, she gives you the chance to imbue an item to make it better. I know you can do it again on the next difficulty, but I want to do it again on the SAME difficulty. Another cheap way is to save before doing it, and if you don't get good results you can end the task of the game so it doesn't save and do it again. **But is there a way to do this more than once in the same game? And on multiple items?**


Why is there so much empty space on some DF screens?

In some Dwarf Fortress screens, there's a lot of empty space. For example, on the health screen, I need to scroll through the units even though they'd fit on one screen if all the space was used.

Best method to create rare items on a minecraft server?

In a Minecraft server I play on, we're trying to figure out a way to create items on our server that would be found through out our server randomly. We want to create these items with effects/special abilities. We also want a way to distribute them by either randomly placing them through out the world, but we only want a defined number of them to be distributed. We also, if possible, want them to be given to users when they get an achievement. The kind of answers I'm looking for are ...   * NBT editor bukkit plugins (Hopefully ones that work with Permissions EX)   * Achievement Plugins    * Bungee suit/Essential  Also, our server runs on MySQL and I am trying to find plugins that work with that.


Adding Minecraft to Steam with 64bit JRE

I am running a 64bit version of Windows 7 with a 64bit version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and have been wondering for a while why Steam only says that I am running Minecraft at the login screen (I start Minecraft through Steam, Steam says "Darestium is playing non-steam game Minecraft" then as soon as you log in on Minecraft it changes your status back to 'Online')? I know this is not the case when you are running the 32bit version of the JRE (with a 64bit version of Windows 7 - having uninstalled the 64bit JRE and replacing it with the 32bit), does anyone know a work around this? If anyone knows the cause of this problem I would be really interested to what it is, and why Steam's behaviour differs between Java versions.


Can I uninstall and re-install Jetpack Joyride without losing everything?

Simcity regional freight shipping

I have a commercial city with no industry and there are ~5000 unfulfilled freight orders. The amount of freight commuting in fluctuates between 1000 to 4000 but never enough to satisfy all 5000 unfulfilled freight. How do I get more freight to "commute in"? Things I have tried:   1. Building a trade depot/port in my commercial city: This causes MORE unfulfilled freight orders since the trade depot/port expects freight shipments from local industries.   2. Building an industrial city next door that has excess freight: My industrial city has about 2000 freight "commuting out" yet it doesn't seem to have a significant effect on my commercial city. When I look at the freight view from region view, it says my industrial city still has a fair amount of unfulfilled freight orders even though it is already shipping out 2000 in excess (I have no idea what is going on here).


Mass Effect in Origin Client doesn't work (win 7 64 bit)

Apparently today I made a huge mistake: I sold my Mass Effect games for Xbox360 to buy the digital trilogy for PC (I'm relocating and wanted to bring Shepard with me in the journey, just in case of sudden Reapers). Over this weekend I tried one torrent for each game, to see if they would work and they did. Today, after the purchase and download of the first game, the horrible happened: no sign of life whatsoever from the game. I can't debug anyhow, since Origin Client traps (and suppresses, I suppose) all warnings coming from the game. Tried both online and offline mode, with cloud storage enabled/disabled, with in game client enabled/disabled, compatibility mode with XP Service Pack 3, lower details and lower resolution from the game configuration. Nothing seems to work. My laptop specification is:   * Intel Core i7    * 6gb ddr3 ram,    * full hd screen    * Nvidia Geforce GT555m  It can run most games at high details (Dishonored, Battlefield 3, Starcraft 2:WoL and HoTS Beta, Diablo 3 just to name some...) and the pirate version of the trilogy too (they launched, at least, didn't check for ME3 and 2 gameplay). The game is fully patched, with Pinnacle Station and Bring down the Sky DLCs installed. What can this possibly be? Is it related to the Origin Client or some sort of compatibility issue of the game? **EDIT** I stumbled upon some info from this link in TR forums and none of the solutions provided worked so far :( **NONSENSE EDIT** Downloaded both patches 1.01a and 1.02, launched them and got the error "Can't find any installation of Mass Effect" just before they crashed. I then copied those patches files inside ME folder, ran them again with the same outcome (error + crash). Then launched the game and it works. I'd still like to know why it doesn't work, can't possibly consider this as "fixed" :|


How can I see text chat in Borderlands 1?

I can't see the chat in Borderlands 1. I press Y, then I type something in the msg prompt, I hit enter, nothing happens. My co-op partner can't see it either. A Google doesn't yield any results that would suggest that this is an issue. What is going on here?

FADC: what is it excactly, and how does it work?

I'm trying to learn and practice the Shoryuken + FADC ( _Focus Attack Dash Cancelling_ ) with Akuma, but I have a few doubts. First of all, is it normal that the FADC consumes two of my super gauges ? Or am I doing something wrong with the inputs ? If this is a normal behavior of FADC, that'd mean FADC is way more different from a "simple" Focus Attack than I thought. Also I'd like to know if there are other moves than the light Shoryuken (using light punch input) that can be FADCancelled. I don't find how to perform it with medium and hard Shoryuken: is it a simple question of timing, or simply impossible ? Are there other characters that own this special kind of move ?


Are Mario & Luigi orphans?

For one thing, I'm prettty sure the mustache'd duo is definitely human. No doubt. But what I think I've never found out is whether or not they had parents. IS there anything not non-canon that explains their birth, or better yet, their ancestry? Are Mario & Luigi orphans? Or do they have parents we just don't know about?


Is there a maximum level of enemy progression?

If I were to play through a game to the point at which I am ready to start the final mission, but continue to play normal UFO assault missions instead of starting the final mission, what is the maximum level that the alien progression would stop at? There must be a maximum level, because there seems to be a maximum number of aliens for a given size of UFO, and once all but the commander are sectopods, it probably can't go further - but would it ever get this far?


How to fix the light beam in the Oculory

Apart from the occasional invisible spider web I didn't run into severe graphic glitches, but now I'm trying to focus the light beam in the Oculory - but... _which_ light beam? This is how it looks for me: ![no light...](http://i.stack.imgur.com/TzZhE.jpg) while it should look like ![](http://images.uesp.net/thumb/a/a5/SR-quest- Revealing_the_Unseen_05.jpg/800px-SR-quest-Revealing_the_Unseen_05.jpg) How can I fix the light? Notes:   * I waited for all daytimes, no light beam. Ever. It's definitely a graphics glitch since I also can't see spider webs blocking my path. **edit** In fact I can _slightly_ guess about the light beam's presence when moving, but they are too weak to be actually useful   * I don't want to blindly apply the actual solution, or use the console to skip this quest stage, I want the light beam to show up and solve the puzzle myself

(On Windows 7 with ATI Radeon 65xx graphics card) I have a 1920x1080 screen, but am unable to go beyond 1280x1024 resolution. Is it a limitation of the graphics card, some driver issue, or is it the max resolution that CS:CZ supports?

Stuck at Hidden Blade Cutscene

Assassin's Creed 2 gets stuck at the cut-scene where: > Leonardo DiVinci repairs your hidden blade, just as you get it. I can open the map, options dialog, and change weapons but the cut-scene will not proceed. I have tried replaying this memory several times, but it does not help. I am running AC2 on Steam via UPlay (Windows 7, SP1, 64 bit). This is a legit copy. Googling around suggests some others are having issues with this scene as well, but the issues seem to be with pirated copies only.


How to remove Swarmers from you in ME3

How can I force unlimited arrows followers?

Not all the followers will shoot arrows forever even though you have only given them one unit. What I need to know is how can I force followers whose arrows don't last to be infinite. Mods and console command are also welcome. Note: I want an epic army of archers following me around. I can currently have ten of them at once.


Does infiltrator get invisibility cloak in Mass Effect 1?

I played Mass Effect out of order. I started with ME2 (since that was the first one on the PS3 at the time), and now I'm going back to ME1 (since it is also available on PS3 now). In ME2 I chose Infiltrator class because I got an invisibility cloak, which was awesome. I am playing ME1 as infiltrator, but I have no cloak. Will I get one at any point in the game? Or was that an item added in ME2?


Ridiculously high numbers in final scoreboard

Just finished classic ironman and final scoreboard is weird (see screenshots). World average numbers shows about 146000 scientists/engineers. Same stuff for credits and few other values.

What stats of Malzahar's do the Voidlings mimic?

I know that the Voidlings scale 1.0 of Malzahar's Attack Damage, and partially from Armor Penetration, but do they benefit from anything else? And if they benefit from his life steal, does the life go to the Voidlings or Malzahar? The reason I ask is because I want to use Surge with this build: http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/ad-malzahar-the-true-power-of- the-voidlings-197526 I'd cast Surge and use my ult and W so that I benefit from the additional AP while my Voidlings use the Attack Speed to dish out more damage.


Cannot get Shen's "God or Man" conversation

Having troubles getting the "God or Man" conversation from Covetous Shen, our beloved jeweler. Other post on this site (like ALL other sites of the internet) state the conversation should appear between the start of "Beneath the spire" up to the "Prime evil" quest. This link says : > Beneath the Spire - Begin Quest: Talk to Haedrig for 2 conversations and > Covetous Shen for 3 conversations. In game, I do only have two conversations: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/HuwoB.jpg) I tried anything... even make the complete act 4 in normal mode and go to town at any quest step (whenever I saw a change in "objectives", I went to the damn jeweler)... but really cannot get this conversation.

Please help if you have any idea of what is going on !


Are there any ways to decrease the impressively long save times for Sims 3 worlds?

I've been watching my wife play Sims 3, and I've noticed the save times are impressively long. (Load times are fine.) The save times start off fine on a new world but after a few hours probably take longer to save than her computer would take to install an operating system a few times. She has a fair number of expansions, but the save times are literally upwards of 10-20 minutes once a world gets somewhat developed. This is on a brand new i5 processor with 8GB of memory, a Samsung SSD, a fairly good 1GB graphics card with nothing else but Windows 8, Chrome, Steam, and TF2 installed. Is there any way to fix the unreasonably long save times with this game?


Is there any way to attract or influence iron golems?

I created several iron golems to protect a village, and they occasionally get through the walls (mostly cobblestone fences) I've built. Is there any way to get them to move toward me, or toward the village, and back where they belong? I tried holding a rose.


How do I purchase multiple copies of the same item from a vendor?

I am trying to upgrade all my orbs. So to save time, I tried to shift-click the orb I want to purchase in the vendor's inventory hoping the game would give me the chance to enter the quantity I want to purchase. But alas, that's not the case. I have also tried ctrl-click and alt-click to no avail. Does anyone know how to do this or is this possible at all?


Remapping primary skill

I'm building a WW tornado barb, and my ideal skill build would be:   1. Overpower   2. Whirlwind   3. Sprint   4. Battle Rage   5. War Cry   6. Wrath of the Berzerker However, because this build doesn't use a primary skill, I am running into issues as even with elective mode you are limited to a few select skills for your primary slot. I can put WW in the primary, which would make the build work, but then I run into the issue of accidentally WWing while moving. **Is there any way to configure this build to avoid this problem altogether?** Like remapping Primary to another key but **not affecting the Move bound to left click.**


Is it possible to hatch chicks on the XBox?

In the PC version of Minecraft you can hatch chicks by throwing eggs, which has a 1/8th chance of producing a chick. I don't want to waste the eggs I already have, but can you produce chicks in the XBox version?


Skyrim "Summon Arniel Gane" casting technique?

So I just got the spell to Summon the shade of Arniel Gane. However, it seems very difficult to cast correctly. It always seems, that out of the heat of battle, I can get it to work if I aim very carefully at a flat surface and look slightly towards the ground. But in the heat of battle I can never get a successful cast! It takes several tries to get him to summon where I point him. The spell looks like it works but I don't see the blue vortex or him anywhere. It seems to be related to how flat the surface is, i.e. I can only get it to work on really flat surfaces. Any hints here? EDIT: After some testing it appears he DOES summon, but seemingly really far away and unrelated to where I was pointing. I was aiming at the ground slightly in front of me, and cast the spell. After searching around, he was trying to run to me from the right, but got stuck behind some rocks. Does anyone else have this issue?


How do I control teleport control?

How to get spiders to group together in Minecraft?

I have two cave spider spawners that are very close to each other, so I'm trying to make a trap for them. I have all the spiders funnel into a 1x1 vertical tube, that's 3 high, with an iron bar on the bottom. But, the spiders get into the tube, and hang at the top, with one going to the bottom. Is there a design with the current AI, that gets the spiders to bunch up?


Using a spell in my main hand and dagger in my left hand

Are there any situations where Jeff and EDI's relationship doesn't flower?

Over the course of the game, I repeatedly encouraged both Jeff and EDI to pursue a relationship. However, at many junctures, I had options that seemed to discourage the two of them from getting together. I could either try to make Jeff be more cautious (and avoid injury) or stomp out EDI's blossoming emotions/humanity. Not to spoil anything major, but judging from late game cutscenes, it seems kind of "hard coded" that they're going to get together. If I'd been overly negative towards the both of them, could I have changed anything between them? Or is this just the way the game plays out, regardless of my input?

EA killed my Bioware keys

In Bioware's pre-EA era they had on their site the option to register CD-keys for your Bioware games. Me, being the optimist that I am, registered my cd- keys there and then promptly lost the hard copy that was included with the retail box. Today I decided that it would be fun to replay the original Neverwinter Nights campaign and went to Bioware's site to get the CD key. Much to my dismay it would appear that all of the old site has been replaced with the new EA Bioware/Social site; this means that only current EA owned Bioware games are able to be registered. In a frantic search of the new site I was unable to locate any reference to the ability to register or retrieve cd-keys to Biowares stable of older games. So, am I blind and just missed an obvious link to these old keys or did EA go out of its way to inconvenience everyone that had done as I did?


Running Multiple Minecraft Installations on Linux

So I was reading the following trying to solve a problem I'm having, but none of the answers were good enough for my specific situation. Essentially, I'm trying to run multiple versions of Minecraft on the same Linux machine. I'm pretty sure that there is someway of writing a Bash script to change the folder where the app data for the game is stored. However, it's been awhile since I've written even the simplest bash scripts and I want to make sure I don't f-anything up. Does anyone know what command I would need to run to maintain multiple installations of Minecraft **for LINUX**? Thanks!

Why use stronger less accurate Pokémon attacks?

This battle I had prompted this question. In the above battle, Fire Blast missed. Twice. A simple Flamethrower would have ended the battle much sooner.                              +-------+----------+------------------+                    | Power | Accuracy | "Average" output |     +--------------+-------+----------+------------------+     | Flamethrower |  90   |    100%  |     92.8125      |     +--------------+-------+----------+------------------+     | Fire Blast   | 110   |     85%  |     96.421875    |     +--------------+-------+----------+------------------+      Factoring in that accuracy, your average output is barely 3.5 Base Power higher than that of Flamethrower, and Flamethrower isn't prone to sudden bursts of luck. (Personally I use Flame Burst - you lose 10BP for it, but the ability to hit the other opponent for 1/16th of their HP, bypassing everything from Substitute to Protect is pretty sweet. Can't tell you how many times I've splashed out a Pokémon that Protected! Great for breaking Focus Sash too!) I also calculated Heat Wave, factoring in hitting two targets your average overall Base Power expectancy on that move is 66-ish per target, so 132 overall. Not bad! So, why do people use Fire Blast and related moves? Is that little bit of extra power really worth it? Overall, how likely is Fire Blast to one-shot something that Flamethrower would two-shot?


How can I give my opponent a win in Madden 11 online franchise mode?

(I'm not just randomly throwing games - there's a story to this.) In the online franchise league I'm in, we have a rule that games that disconnect in the fourth quarter or overtime are wins for the team with the lead at the time. (This is on the 360, but I would think the solution would be platform-agnostic. If it isn't, I'd like a 360-only solution.) I was playing this week's opponent, and down 31-13 with less than a minute left in the third, I lost a fumble. I paused the game to challenge and the game decided not to resume - neither of us could get back to the game, so we both quit without a result. Given the score and situation, I felt it was only fair to give him the win, but we couldn't find a quick way of doing it: if I quit right after we started the game, he only had options to quit with a loss or quit with no result. There is a thread on EA's forums that suggests this may be due to a recent patch of the game. We ended up playing the game through in such a way as to ensure a win for him, but I'd prefer something that wouldn't take up as much of his time. Is there a way to do that?

Install Mods for Unreal Tournament 2004

My college will not let me get to other forums where this information is available, but ... How do you install *.ut4mod files for Unreal Tournament 2004 when double- clicking no longer works? After checking out the UT2004 from Good Old Games, the program runs files on Windows 7 Professional (except for a strange sound volume bug that drives Window's settings for the program to under 10%). However, after downloading lots of mods from CNet, none of the mods can be run. Anyone know how to fix this? **Edit:** Trying to "open" or "run" the files by double-clicking them in Windows prompts the OS to ask me what program to open the *.ut4mod files with. As for going to the wiki: I would love to, but it is blocked.

Any way to work-around "Choose Production" for puppet city bug

There is a bug, which is going to be fixed in the next patch, where you are blocking from going to the next turn with "Choose Production" for a puppet city. Clicking on the "Choose Production" does nothing, and the only way around it (that I've found) is to annex the city. Does anyone know of a way to work-around the bug, while waiting for the patch?


How to defend myself against a MM + Tank rush in a TvT?

When playing Terran VS Terran, how can I defend against this rush?   * The opponent comes with Marines, Marauders and Tanks.   * He deploys the Tanks and then uses scans to destroy my Rax + Bunkers + Units.   * He comes in my base with all units and the game is over. See my **replay** here. I had Marines, Marauders, Tank(s), Anti-Air, Vikings. * * * Tzenes answer is impressive! I think that my problem is not defending, but it is attacking: > You’ve sent out your SCV to do a little scouting. You’ve found your > opponent, and he or she is fortifying heavily. You’re doing the same, > focusing on building structures, protecting your entry points, and placing > anti-air units at all the right locations. Your base is covered from all > angles.

How many levels are in Sonic 4 Episode 1?

The title says it all. I grabbed the one-level demo yesterday on XBox Live and thought it was fun, but before I plunk down 1200 points for it, I'm wondering how many levels are in it. I know there are only three zones -- so the question becomes, how many levels to a zone? (I believe traditionally there were 3? If they kept that pattern, that would make this a 9-level game, only.)

However, while trying to bash one of the little snots into the ground to teach him some manners, I noticed that they're invulnerable to damage. Obviously, they're witches, or at the very least cheaters. Is there a console command to make them less invincible? If not, is there one that will shut them up?

Where can I build a Thermal Power generator in XCom

According to the description, Thermal generators must be built "over steam vents". Naturally, I assumed that this meant the space above the one marked "steam", so I cleared out rubble and tried to build on that space, only to find that I could not. Do I need to actually build on the space that says "Steam", or above it as the description says? If above it, is there any reason I can't build on a space I've cleared out? (other than money, which was not an issue).

Which Starcraft 2 hotkey set should I use?

I played a lot of beta SC2 games (as random) with the grid setup and managed. Since then I've started watching Day[9] and some other commentators who seem to refer often to the default hotkeys in their recommendations for, eg., keeping drones building at all times. My question is: to what extent are hotkeys mere preference? If we took a random sampling of competitive players, would roughly 50% be using the grid layout, or would it skew for some relevant game-play reason?


Can I buy Xbox Live games via PC and transfer them on a flash drive to a Xbox 360 internal HDD?

What effect does Realm choice have and is it permanent?

I picked up _Rage of Bahamut_ , a mobile CCG game (Android version). The first step of the Tutorial asks me to choose a realm, either Man, Gods or Demons. I'm not quite sure what, if any, effect this has on actual gameplay though. It also marks the Gods realm as "Recommended", and it says that if I pick the Gods realm, I will get more friend requests. I am unsure as to how the realm choice affects my potential friend availability. Is this purely a cosmetic choice, or does this actually have an effect on my gameplay and the cards I can use? The description for all three realms starts out saying "Harness the power of..." and then goes on to list different characters for the realm types, like Lancelot for Man, Odin for Gods, and Bahamut for Demons, so this leads me to believe that this will limit what cards I can play with. Is this true? Can I change my realm after I have chosen it, or am I locked into a specific realm permanently once I make my decision?

How can I make Entangling Shot viable?

I love the visual effect and crowd control capabilities of Entangling Shot, but the ~~75%~~ 90% weapon damage property seems to make it very weak compared to other Demon Hunter primaries such as Hungering Arrow, which does 115%. Is there a playstyle or rune that makes Entangling Shots more viable? **Update** : With the 1.04 patch, the damage of Entangling Shot has been increased from 75% to 90% weapon damage. This certainly helps to make it more viable, but it still seems underused compared to Hungering Arrow, so I believe that the question is still valid.

It would be nice if the animals had some space to roam and if they could still breed too. What's the best way to achieve this? Should I cage them all up transport them somewhere with doors that aren't passable to animals and then let them out? Is there a better way? To make this plan work, will I need to provide the critters with food and water? How best to achieve this?


Is there any level limit for using gems?

I'm thinking of buying some high-quality gem from the auction house, but before I shell my money, I was wondering if there's any level limit on gems, or whether gems increase the level limits on items they are socketed in (like in Diablo II). If there is such a minimum level or some modification of the item, what rule does that follow?


Can you go up into pipes using Propeller Mario's Propeller jump?

I know this may seem obvious to many, but I have had trouble going up into pipes when I've used the Propeller Jump. Does using that move prevent you from going into a pipe, or am I simply not aiming well enough?


Can a projectile entity be anonymized?

There is a feature in minecraft, that an arrow will break item frames. However, on SMP server users can protect their regions and the region is smart enough to check the origin ID of the arrow. Still, I wonder if anyone could mess up with our spawn's crafting tutorials (which are made of item frames). One way would be leading a skeleton archer to the spawn, but I guess that would require inhuman patience. Also, dispenser arrows seem to be anonymous, but in my case that's something don't have to worry about.


Dualwielding different speed weapons, why is the slower weapon graphically forced in to the main hand?

I noticed that when wielding a fast fist-weapon in the mainhand slot, and a slower mace in the offhand slot, the game will graphically swap the mace to be displayed in my monks right hand. Is this the effect of some mechanic so that the skills will hit harder since the damage-range of the slower weapon is higher, or what's the idea behind this? It's easy to reproduce, just equip a fast weapon in your mainhand, then put a slow weapon to your offhand, and you will see the slower offhand weapon actually appear in the mainhand and the faster mainhand getting switched to offhand. Oh and I'm not talking about the item screen ragdoll, it happens in the actual ingame model of the character.

Warcraft 3 obtain phat lewt in early Orc stages

In the early Orc stages in Warcraft 3 I recall there being a chest on a small island that is inaccessible. This chest is an item called phat lewt. My question is how do I go about obtaining this item and what is its value in the game? I understand the concept of receiving phat lewt, just wanted to know what it is in WC3.


Is there a wonder, project or political choice that forbids you to declare war?

In previous versions of Civilization, I think that there were some buildings or wonders that will prevent you from declaring war to other civilizations (because of your people's disagreement). I think maybe NATO or the UN ? Or choosing Pure Democracy ? Is there something like that in the 5th version of the game ?


USB with game files formatted when plugged into a different Xbox 360 - Possible to recover?

A friend had been saving games on his 360 using a USB drive. He moved it to a different 360 and it reformatted the USB for use, deleting his files. I suggested he use some data recovery software, but then it turns out the .svg saved game files aren't visible on windows. I wasn't able to find anything concrete on google, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.


Will Continuous flying damage the aircraft?

I am now having a test on various flying vehicles with continuous flying. Now I tried:   * Frogger   * Maverick   * Titan Engines of all the above will produce smoke trail after a in-game day of flying (given that Titan has retracted the landing gear during take off). Then continue to fly for half day, the plane will drop altitude significantly (though full throttle is set, and the plane is leveled). Flying for 2 days, I am forced to land the plane on an airstrip. Does this prove that continuous flying will damage the aircraft? p.s. I was just dodging the bounty :P
