How do I get through the locked doors on Level 12 (The Prison)?

I've now completed the game, but I never found keys to open the 3 locked doors on Level 12: The Prison. They all have keyholes, but I've found no keys for them. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/pr73O.jpg) How can I open these? What's behind them?


What is the secret to the burnt treasure map with the Polytron logo, the candle room, and the floating black monolith?

After lowering the water level, there is a anticube room beneath the first warp zone. In New Game+ first-person view mode, the Polytron logo shows on the floor. After following the treasure map (standing exactly in the hole of the logo, entering the tetromino code on the reverse side), a floating black monolith/obelisk/pillar appears. What is the trick? ![floating black monolith](http://i.stack.imgur.com/4Idg6.png)

I am planning an attack on a City-State in _Civilization 5_ , and I was wondering: Do City-States and normal Empire Cities have the same amount of health, or do Empire Cities have more health? If Empire Cities have more health, how much health?

Sweep quest for thieves guild in Skyrim

I'm wondering if I've run into a bug on the Xbox version of Skyrim. I have a sweep quest for Vex in the Thieves' Guild to clear Bolli's house in Riften of three valuables. I've scoured the house and only 2 high value items have appeared. I've gotten the items from the side table on the first floor and the item on the stand at the end of the bed upstairs. Not sure where #3 spawns. I've opened every searchable container in the house and no other high value item is present. Does this happen often or am I just missing something, like the other spawn point?


What is the effect of one point of block skill?

I have been unable to find the exact value of one point of blocking. The unofficial Elder Scrolls pages and other wikis do not list a value for blocking. As an example, for heavy armor one point adds 0.4% armor. The block value seems important because I want to find out how much fortify block to enchant on my stuff. the USEP lists the max block mitigation as 85% (if you are looking at this page) or 80% (if you are looking at this page).

When I am using the same account that I use for "Play Solo" while I am playing hot-seat with friends, would my personal record that I see in "Play Solo" be updated? Would I be able to gain medals for levels that way? What about levels where I don't have the prerequisites for playing them yet, e.g. no bronze medal in the previous levels?

Wii on PC monitor - occasionally blacks out

I use an ASUS PC monitor (unfortunately I can't remember the model type etc, however it is a LCD monitor with HDMI, DVI and VGA ports, as well as a speaker) I bought a Wii/PS3 Cable in the hopes that I can play the Wii on my montiro - much like I do with my PS3 and 360, for the convenience of having evefrything hooked up to the single screen. It works fine, with the exception that while I am playing the Wii on the monitor, it occasionally blacks out temporarily. Its as if the monitor goes to sleep briefly while I'm playing my game! Aside from it being quite rude, it'll also make it quite difficult to play any kind of game that involves consistent action! Currently it hasn't caused too many difficulties because I've only been playing the very early stages of Fragile Dreams, but if I get much further it has the potential to become quite a nightmare, aside from being ridiculously annoying. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do to solve this? It would be much appreciated! Thanks all! ~~~~~~~~~~ Edit With new information As asked in the comments, I tested a bit more today... It does not seem to be affected by whether I'm in a cutscene or in game, watching FMVs or running through menus. In fact, it seems utterly disconnected from gameplay at all! It also is inconsistent with how long between blackouts. The shortest I experienced was about a minute and a half, the longest was a bit over 5 minutes, between blackouts. When it blacks out, the screen completely turns black for a few seconds, as if I was switching input channels, then the screen returns to showing me my game. Quite frustrating! I watched the light on the power button as it blacked out, and there was no change - it was signalling that the monitor was still turned on. Does this give anyone any ideas? I think it _may_ be my monitor thinking that there is no display, and trying to find something on another channel, then giving up and returning to the one I manually selected, but I'm not sure (and can't find an option to try and stop it from thinking!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edit 2 I thought it may have been the VGA gender changer dongle thing that came with the cable, so I swapped that out for a longer VGA male to male adapter cable. It seems to have slowed down, but is still causing issues. This is getting ridiculously frustrating, I'm almost at the point of giving up on the Wii altogether over this! If anyone has had this problem before, or has any ideas on how to solve it, please speak up!


Is it possible to obtain more Lanius crew?

The only way I've found to get Lanius crew so far is to start with their ship, but if I'm not using a Lanius ship, is there a way for me to get more crew members?


I found myself unable to connect to battle.net (the gaming network as opposed to the battle.net website). In this case the problem was with battle.net service. In the future I would like to check if the issue is on my side or if the battle.net service is down. I was using the battle.net login client. Specifically, I was unable to log into the battle.net service. I am not interested in any of the game specific servers. How can I check the status of battle.net?   Is there an official status of the battle.net service available somewhere?


How do you cancel the interaction bar?

When you try to activate/use/open hubs, consoles, boxes and other similiar objects in the game an interaction bar pops up and it takes up to few turns for it to fill up which results in you finishing your interaction with that object. **How can you cancel the interaction with an object while in the interaction- bar phase?** I noticed that if enemy hits you it will stop your interaction with the object. I also managed to stop interaction with the objects myself few times, but I really can't remember which button I pressed for it to work.


What determines if a city's population uses resource squares or becomes worker in the city?

First off, Civ-Revolution is the first Civ game I've played so pardon my ignorance. When I was playing earlier I noticed that with my large city, almost none of the squares around were being "used". For example, I could have a city, let's call it Dijon, with a population of 20 and a courthouse. Dijon's working squares extend out 3 spaces in every direction, with a great mix of resources (food, production, trade). I'm not at war with anyone and there are no units or towns in the area. Let's also assume that I have the workshop so that hills are worth 3 production. Now let's say that only 3 or 4 of the working squares are being utilized, mostly for food. Maybe I'm not looking at this closely enough. Why would one of the population stay in the city to produce 1 production or 1 production and 1 trade vs going to a hill to make 3?


Is Battle of the Immortals safe to download and install?

My youngest wants to download and install Battle of the Immortals from Perfect World. I was suspicious straight away as it was installing games like this that caused problems on the kid's computer earlier this year - strange browser toolbars and the like being the most obvious ones. We've since reinstalled Windows and I'd like to keep the machine clean. I've found a forum thread here that claims the game contains a trojan, but it's couched in language that makes me think of conspiracy theorists and doesn't offer any hard evidence. Also as Lee points out in his comment there isn't going to be any out-and-out malware in there. It's more the "extra" toolbars etc. that I'm sure will be included in the install that I'm worried about. I'd like to be sure that I'm not going to let him install anything nasty onto their computer. I can obviously scan the exe before I run it, but that won't tell me if it installs any browser plugins etc. What else can I, and should I, check?


Where to buy posters?

I watch a lot of Day9 TV, and I just decided to buy some cool and fancy StarCraft II posters, but Googling didn't return any usable results. Blizzard Store failed, because it just offers one poster, that is, in my opinion, not very cool. Do you have any websites where I can order SCII (or Diablo III) posters with worldwide shipping (or at least just North America + Europe)? Thank you very much.


Do I lose approval with customers if I don't have the item they ask for?

At Merchant level 3 in Recettear, you gain the ability to give customers sales recommendations. However, I've had some customers come in asking for a type of item that I do not have in stock at the moment, meaning they leave without a purchase at all. Does this have a negative effect on the relationship I have with them, and if so, is it easily made up for with later sales?


Do some Wii games require a Classic Controller?

Are there any Wii games that require me to use a Classic Controller and won't work with a Gamecube controller or Wiimote+Nunchuck? Are there any controllers that have both a Wiimote and a Gamecube plug so I don't have to buy two similar controllers?


How to connect to new Pokewalker?

My brother lost his Pokewalker and got a new one individually to replace it. I looked up about replacements here on Bulbapedia and tried the Up+Select+R thing. It gave the Pokemon back, but if you try to connect to the new one, it says it isn't registered. What do I do now?


Am I supposed to have multiple high level pokemon?

I'm playing Pokemon Blue. I'm at Mt. Moon and I have a level 19 Charmander and no other Pokémon over level 5. I'm wondering if I'm playing the game correctly right now. If my charmander dies I will 'black out'. It seems weird that I should be expected to have multiple Pokémon at high levels when I haven't had much of an opportunity to level the others. Most of the other Pokémon I have are crappy and I don't intend on playing with later on. It hardly seems worth the time to level them now. Should I go back and gain some levels for my other pokemon?

Accidentally caged dwarfs

I just had an encounter with some goblin ambushers in front of my fort. Most were caught by cage traps, and I sent my troops out to finish the rest. However, somehow, two dwarves were captured, and now they're sitting in their "dwarf cages" in animal storage. How the heck do I get them out? How did they get in there in the first place - I thought my dwarves were immune to their own traps.


Hidden mechanics in DW8?

In Dynasty Warriors 8 for PC, what are the details on the hidden mechanics? For example:   * Are there better or more item drops on harder difficulties?    * Does combo'ing a dead leader give better item drops the longer the combo? What are the details on the above, and what other hidden mechanics are there? From this forum post "From what I've seen doing them from beginner to hard mode there is no increase in material drop rates". Can anyone confirm anything one way or another?


How do I associate my Xbox 360 copy of Mass Effect 3 with my EA/Origin account?

Mass Effect 3 on Xbox logs into Origin every time I start the game up, but I never actually gave it my Origin credentials, and (understandably) it does not seem to be associated with my Origin account. How do I make this association or access the new account it apparently created for me?


Is there a way to disable the Codex entry pop-ups in Mass Effect 3?

Whenever I stumble across a new Codex entry, the game throws up a big "Codex Updated" message in the bottom-right corner of the screen. It's moderately annoying and distracting as it takes up about 1/6 of the screen. I frequently just ignore the message anyway and catch up on my designated codex reading in big batches. **Is there a way to disable this pop-up?** I'm playing on Xbox 360 so mods/patches/whatnot won't work for me, although if such options exist, feel free to post them as I'm sure this "feature" annoys some PC users as well. The image below is what the issue looks like on my TV. _(Sorry for the terrible picture. It's hard to snap a photo with a controller in your hands!)_ ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/nYRsf.jpg)


Does the Prothean squadmate have significance outside of in-quest commentary?

I played through the Eden Prime mission and watched his back story, but is the rest of his inclusion in the main story similar to Kasumi or Zaeed?


How significant is the discount for each of the shops compared to the ship?

Cortez mentions that you get higher prices by shopping through him due to shipping (I'd hate to see the shipping cost across a couple of relays in wartime). My question is simple: How significant are the discounts for each shop in the game and where are the original shops located?


Is it possible to disable Kinect support while playing Mass Effect 3?

I've been playing the Xbox 360 version of Mass Effect 3 and since I have a Kinect attached to the system, the game automatically "uses" its functionality. That is, whenever I or anyone or anything else the room makes a noise, a small red microphone appears in the upper left-hand corner. This is pretty distracting, especially when it happens in the middle of an intense fight. **Is there a way to turn this functionality off other than just unplugging the Kinect sensor?** ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/E5C7i.jpg) _(Sorry for the blurry picture. It's tricky taking a photo of your TV during a firefight with a controller in your hands.)_


Can I transfer Steam Games from Win7 to Linux?

Does the Linux version of Steam use the same `.gcf` files as the Windows version? And if so where is the Steam install located _by default_ on a *nix system? `/usr/share/` or `/home/user/.steam` or somewhere else? To expound on my question: What I'm trying to accomplish is taking the majority of Steam's files, and moving the compatible bits to Linux. It is my understanding that when Steam is presented with partial/incomplete data, it will download only what it need, leaving the usable pieces intact, thus saving bandwidth. So what I'm wondering is: am I able to copy the Steam folder from a Windows install to a Linux install and nothing break? Will Steam download the proper Linux binary version of the game? Do I need to delete the Windows binaries? Do I need to delete file associated with Windows-only games? Et cetaera.

Minecraft Forge Help 1.7.5

I have recently bought Minecraft and I have 1.7.5. I tried to install Forge but it said that I need to run 1.7.2 at least once. How do I run 1.7.2 with a copy of Minecraft on 1.7.5? I have tried to download Minecraft again, but that didn't work.


Exactly how good of a follower is Aranea Ienith? Is she worth foregoing the Black Star?

I realize that there are already a variety of questions that debate the usefulness of the Black Star versus Azura's Star, and it's pretty evident that the Black Star is more useful--black soul gems are pretty rare, and woefully expendable, but opportunities to harvest black souls (which are all Grand) are plentiful. However, these don't adequately address what I feel is probably the greatest benefit of the "Azura" side of the Black Star quest: the opportunity to get Aranea Ienith (the Azura priestess) as your follower. From what I gather from the UESP wiki, Aranea is the strongest mage follower you can possibly have. So, is Aranea + regular Azura's Star > Black Star? As a shot in the dark, is it possible to get both Aranea _and_ the Black Star?


Is it possible to have my minecraft server update itself?

I am currently playing a server with my friends on the new Minecraft snapshot and I constantly have to update it because they release a new snapshot often. I was wondering if it was possible for every time I start the Minecraft server that it checks for a new version. If there is a new version, it downloads it and restarts the server.


Is it possible to get the trophy "SHARDCORE" in inFamous 2 while you're still limited to the first part of the city?

I ask this because Ive already gotten the trophy for 50% of the Dead Drops. It stands to reason I would probably be able to also get 50% of the Blast Shards (which is how you get the trophy SHARDCORE). There are civilians running around with shards, but taking them from them is an evil act. Is there a way to get 50% of the shards WITHOUT taking them from the civilians? This question only applies to the first part of the game, before you've crossed the bridge in the north-eastern part of the city. I'm trying to get the shards in this specific time frame. I'm really enjoying the game's story, so please leave any comments or answers **spoiler free**.

I am playing Pushmo on the 3DS and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to complete level 10. There does not seem to be a way to pull out the last block at the top to save the little Pushmo kid that is trapped there. The only help I get is the old man telling me to "pull the lowest block all the way out" and to "try a side pull if I get stuck." Problem is, I don't know where to go from there. How do I complete Lesson 10 of the Basic Lessons?


In what way are Minecraft Resource Packs (Texture Packs) hardware intensive?

Running Essentials on FTB Unleashed

I'm fairly new to running my own server, but I decided to take the plunge and I'm currently developing a spawn on my new FTB Unleashed box. The issue I have is I really want to use Essentials - but I can't seem to get it to work. My understanding is you need a bukkit server - but I'm afraid I don't know enough about the core of FTB to know what's under the hood. Can anyone giveme any pointers on how to -- or even IF, I can get Essentials installed on the box? Help appreciated.


Repairing items in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

How is the cost of repairing items calculated? There seems to be a pretty big range. Also, do repair kits always restore the same amount of damage or does it vary based on item type and quality?


What happens with jungle respawns when you don't fully clear creeps?

Supposedly you can harass the enemy jungle a little by killing the valuable creeps in a jungle pack and leaving one of the cheap minions around to delay a full respawn. How does this work exactly? If I see a solo minion up at one of our buffs, should I kill it or let it be? Is there a difference between leaving two minions up and coming back later and killing another to delay a buff/respawn?


Ingress Minimum Attack Efficiency

I was experimenting with the "hold fire" option to get the 20% bonus attack this morning and I was doing it with some level 1 bursters. Nearby high level resonators (7 & 8) reported damage as -1% I thought it was interesting that such a high level portal was damaged by a level 1 burster, so I gave a level 6 burster a try with the max +20% bonus on the hold fire, but again I only got -1% damage I didn't think about repeating it and checking the actual XM damage from each attack, but it made me question whether due to maximum mitigation, using a lower level burster would acheive the same damage as a higher level burster. Does anyone have any evidence of this being the case? I will experiment again but someone might already have the data available


Why can't I get Rested or Well Rested?

I sleep in rented beds and my bed in Jorrvaskr (with the Companions) and no matter how long I sleep I don't get the notification that I'm rested or well rested anymore. I've looked at my active effects to check for Lycanthropy or Vampirism and all I have are positive effects. I have slept in rented beds immediately after receiving blessings and having all diseases cured at the shrine of Mara. What are other reasons I might not be able to get rested or well rested?


How often can I expect egg-laying animals to lay eggs?

I captured several war Jabberers and cave crocodiles from goblin sieges; I am trying to breed them, by chaining them right next to a nest box. Since then, none of them occupied the nest boxes. Am I doing something wrong? How often would a "normal" egg-laying animal lay eggs? Can such an animal claim a nest box while on a chain? Technically, the chain is supposed to only limit movement range, isn't it?


Van Graff hostility (not concerning "Cass")

In my current game of "Fallout, New Vegas" I have had no meaningful interaction with Cassidy of Cassidy caravans to have any meaningful impact on my relation with the Van Graffs. In the quest, "still in the dark" given by the brotherhood of steel faction, I have reached a point where I must attack and eliminate the Van Graffs. I want to use them as a vendor before attacking, however, so I depart to their establishment, but they are hostile. This is not my problem, I assumed it only natural, as I have a quest to slaughter them. I loaded a save BEFORE I receive the progress in the quest to kill the Van Graffs (specifically before I deliver the holo-tapes to Hardin.), yet they are still hostile to me? How can I possibly interact with the Van Graffs while they attack me? Will they continue to be hostile if I finish the quest without giving the holotapes to Hardin? Will I have to do something else? I also will add that I am unable to use console commands.


Is there any indicator for squad health on the main HUD?

Looking at the main HUD of the game, there seems to be no indicator of squad health, only their picture (which doesn't seem to indicate anything other than _dead_ ) and Shepard's health/shields (for obvious reasons). Pausing the game does not seem to bring up any indicator either. The only thing I could find was the actual health levels in the Squad menu, but this is nonideal in the heat of combat in order to glance at who is about to die. Any idea if there is a way to display them without a mod, or is it something planned in a future patch?


Is it possible to create diagonal pool pieces?

You can place pool pieces in regular squares, use those rounded parts of two kinds, but I am wondering if it is possible to create diagonal pools as well? I want to build a pool in the corner of a garden where it is surrounded by three straight walls , but one corner has a diagonal angle in it. Can I fill up the two small grassy triangles up with pools as well?


How do I cause or prevent Interference, Interceptions, Deadlocks etc.?

During battles, I feel like I have no idea what's going on. My unit-groups will intercept and be intercepted; interfere and be interfered (?); flank and be flanked; and become deadlocked _(is this even a bad thing?)_. This all happens seemingly at random. Is there any way of knowing which actions will flank or interfere (etc.) another unit-group? Or of knowing when they'll do it to me? Can I prevent it? Do I even _want_ to?


What happened with Ashley between ME2 and ME3?

What happened between ME2 and ME3 that changed Ashley's attitude toward Shepard? In ME2 she didn't even want to talk with you because you were with Cerberus. She acted like you just made the biggest act of treason ever. In ME3 you start back with a her still a little mad, but in your party, and the relation starts back again. So what happened that made her like Shepard again? > (except for Shepard leaving Cerberus)


How and when do I recruit Tali?

I started playing the first few plot missions in ME3 last night, and very early on I recruited Garrus. Both he and Tali survived the events of ME2 (on my save), and I believe they are both potential squadmates. They tended to round out my team in previous installments. If I've just recruited Garrus, how far am I from recruiting Tali? If I want to recruit her as fast as possible, what should I do?


Can you set a queue for games being installing on Steam?

So, I just bought a bunch of games on Steam. Of course, none of them are installed. Steam, by default, installs one game at a time. If there is a game not being installed, it will eventually be according to where it's position in the install queue is. Next to those games, while showed in a yellow color, is the text "Update Suspended". Why they call it Suspended? Beats me because they have definitely not been installed. So, out of all these games being installed, some of them I like more than others, so I want to install them first. Is there anyway to change the queue order of games being installed?

How do I remove a spell "stuck" on my hand in Skyrim?

The spell "Lesser Ward" is stuck on my right hand in Skyrim. I can no longer replace it with another spell by using the GUI, and I can't unequip it either. Using the "favorites" hotkey, I can equip both hands to a spell and then equip another to my left hand to get a wanted spell on my right, but this is a bit cumbersome. Since I'm a Khajiit mage, I like to have a spell in my left hand and my right hand free for attacking. If I try to use the console to remove the spell, my right hand simply doesn't do anything. I then can't attack, but I can't use the offending ward either. This problem persists through saves - if I load a save from before the problem, I still have the spell in my right hand.

Why would I split captured monster parts, and which parts should I split?

Sometimes when killing a monster, you get a part of that monster, which you can split into other items, or keep. Since I have no idea what they're for and splitting can't be undone, I've just been choosing to keep them. **What are they for? Should I be splitting them instead?**


Applied Energistic - Keep infinite amout of items

Is there anything behind this door in Venice?

In `Metro: Last Light`, Venice, there is a child who lost his teddy bear. I was able to find his bear and return it, but then ended up leaving the city before I could return to see if he and his mother finally moved out of the way of the door. Because `Metro: Last Light` does not allow you to save games wherever you like, it would be difficult to get back to that moment in time in the game. Does anyone know if that door may open? And if so, is there anything worthwhile behind it? Thanks.


How processor type (i3/i5/i7) affects game performance on ultrabooks?

Majority of ultrabooks today are available with choice of i3, i5 or i7 processor with same video card used: Intel HD4000. For example, given Sony Duo 11, where are 3 configurations: with i3-3217U, i5-3317U and i7-3517U processors. How can i figure out what FPS actual games will have (like Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, etc) if started on all 3 notebooks with same grphics settings? I have tried notebookcheck and google, but where are no direct comarison for same notebook models and same game graphics settings with different processors :(.


Are there any mods that unlock higher level equipment or skill trees?

In the origin Dawn Of War 2, the level cap is only 20, and the skill tree for each character is much less than Chaos Rising. The only better part was that you can play missions infinite times, something you couldn't do in Chaos Rising. So my question is, are there any mods for the Dawn of War 2 campaign that can unlock higher level equipment or skill trees?


Is there any purpose to the three questions asked when making a new game?

After deciding a name for your character, you are then asked three questions: _this summer I'm going to_ , _as a personal goal I want to_ , and _next year I promise not to._ I assume these questions serve a purpose, but the game doesn't give any hint as to what it is, nor does the manual seem to contain any information. Do these questions serve any purpose?


Can I direct the audio in Fallout: New Vegas to another device?

I'm playing New Vegas on my PC. I want to redirect the audio to my monitor's speakers while my default audio device is set to my TV. I couldn't find anything in the options, is there somewhere else I can specify which audio device New Vegas uses?


Meaning of green up and red down arrows next to unit cover shield?

I've noticed some of my soldiers occasionally have a green ^ or a red ^ (upside down) next to their cover icon. What is the meaning of this?


What is considered a continent? - eg for Indonesia's Spice Islanders bonus

Gajah Mada (Indonesia) gets the Spice Islanders bonus. > The first 3 cities founded on continents other than where Indonesia started > each provide 2 luxury resources (and can never be razed). What is considered a different continent for these purposes? My guess would be it has to be separated by ocean, but it could be that just a coastal sea separating landmasses is enough.


Is it possible to unlink a CN account temporarily and re-link it later to register the games afterwards?

At the moment I hit platinum status but want to avoid downloading Pokemon Bank and Steel Diver to save those coins for the next CN year (that starts on July). I was wondering, could it be possible to unlink my Club Nintendo account from my 3DS, download the games, and link it a couple of months down the line to "save" those coins for later? Or will I lose those coins if the 3DS is not linked to a CN account?

How does the "chance to hit" (or accuracy) work in Path of Exile?

So there's this percentage that shows how accurate your character is when hitting. Say I use a bow, and when you reach 100% chance to hit (or accuracy) then I believe it hits all the arrows. But after I saw that it's possible to get more percentage than 100% then my thoughts are.. Is there a limit, or is it pointless?


Could "Lips" for XBox360 be effectively used to rehearse a song?

I've got several Karaoke games (American Idol, Rock Band, etc.) for my XBOX360, but I've heard that Lips lets you import your own MP3 files and play them in the game. My wife does community theater, and I was thinking for her musical numbers this game would be a good way for her to practice the songs for her plays and perfect her pitch and timing on the songs by importing and playing professional recordings of those songs. Obviously it doesn't have the lyrics if you import your own sound file (especially for obscure music), but can it detect and show the pitch indicator on the screen for imported songs? Overall, would this game be practical for singing practice on imported songs?

How to get 'All Upright' ribbon for Food Fight level 8 (Nemesisters)?

In the recent level pack "Food Fight" for Bag It, I managed to complete level 8, but one of the ribbons is for 'All Upright'. I can't find a way to get everything in upright due to the awkward shape of the bananas. For reference, the items are:   * 3x melon   * 4x milk   * 2x salsa   * 2x green banana (L shape)   * 1x pink banana (J shape) And the bananas cannot touch.


Are some DE:HR keycodes unobtainable?

According to this answer, all keypads should have a valid keycode, however, the wiki linked list one or two codes as "?" Why are those codes not listed? Are some keycodes in the game unobtainable? Anyone have access to the game and can run check, maybe? The codes missing (at the time of writing this) are:   * "East Apartment F2" in Detroit Downtown Apartments   * "Hengsha Streets (South)" in Hengsha City


What happened to my OP8 weapons?

I was on my second Character, and had him at OP8 very early into the first play through. I then completed True Vault Hunter Mode on OP8, I then went to play Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode on OP8 and I was back at LVL72 and could no longer play with my OP8 weapons. **So does anyone know why this is happening? Is it a bug? Or is there something I should not have done?** What is OP (in case you are confused)? OP8 is a short term for 'Over Powered LVL8' it is part of the new DLC, in which you receive LVL80 gear for your LVL72 character. More information HERE.


How can I skip skinning/looting animations in Far Cry 3?

Aside from dancing around dead bodies in an attempt to find the proper pointing spot for "Press `E` to skin", my most frustrating issue with Far Cry 3 is the amount of time it takes for the looting or skinning animation to play whenever I take these actions. It seems like the game skips these animations in some cases (I've seen it 2 or 3 times) but no alternate application of the `E` key during skinning/looting changes the animation duration. Have I stumbled upon a bug with the animation skipping or is there something I can do to skip the animation myself?


Is StarCraft still played competitively or has it all but been replaced with StarCraft II?

StarCraft II seems much more spectator-friendly (and modern computer), but are there still any large tournaments that are sticking to the old, balanced to the n-th degree SC1? I can't really make out what happens in Korea that well, it seems like there are tons of StarCraft tourneys, but are they all SC2 nowadays?

In Borderlands, what if my character is past level 50 and then I play without the DLC installed?

In Borderlands, say I play with the Secret Armory DLC installed and rank up past level 50. Then, I move my game save to another Xbox 360 that doesn't have the DLC, sign in with the same gamertag, and try to load the save. Assuming I last saved in an area in the main game and not one of the DLC levels, and have the latest title update installed. What happens? Does it prevent me from playing, lower me to level 50, or allow me to continue in the main game at, say, level 55 without the DLC anymore? Thank you.

Is there a definitive modding community for Minecraft?

I'm looking to download some mods for Minecraft. I'm new to the modding community and unsure whether there is a website or community centered around modding Minecraft that is a 'One-stop' place for most Minecraft mods, similar to other communities for other games. Does such a community exist? If so, where can I find it?


How does the 'Cash For Relics' shop work?

Some of the maps have tiles with a big sign on them that reads 'cash for relics' and a passive many-eyed beast floating around that must be a shopkeeper or something. I've stood in the tiles but haven't gotten anything from him. How do you get relics for cash? Do you have to be carrying a full load of gold/diamond/mithril? ![Cash 4 Relics](http://i.stack.imgur.com/3pn1V.jpg)


How to move two aligned tile pieces to the top of a scheme in sliding puzzles?

While playing Cogs, I have found myself plenty of times in this irritating situation. I have this:               .--.      |XY| (where I don't really care about X, Y, or Z)     |AB|     |Z |     ....      ...while what I want is this:               .--.      |AB| (where again, I'll sort X, Y and Z later.)     |XY|     |Z |     ....      I'm tired of trying to get this by accident. By goodness, you how do you make that happen consistently?


Can you finish the game siding with Caesar as a woman?

As is fairly well-documented, Caesar's Legion is extremely sexist -- women do not serve his armies, are subservient to men in all ways, etc. So my question is, if you are playing New Vegas as a woman, are you able to side with Caesar throughout the game and for the endgame? Does that modify any of the interactions with the Legion?


What is afterburn command for in Freelancer?

What are good strategies and build orders for a newbie player?

i'm a newbie in the Civ universe (although i played civ4 for a short while). I enjoy the new addition to the series and i am able to win games on easy difficulties, but there is no real strategy behind my play. I just build things that seem useful and then go to war and slowly beat everyone. Although this works now, i can imagine it won't on higher difficulties. So my question is - what are good strategies/build orders for a newbie player? What should i build in my cities and why?


What's this attribute represented by a purple skull?

What does %elemental damage get me?

I just made a pair of daggers with +8% poison damage. I didn't have any decent Rivets available, so it was a choice between that and +8% bleed damage. The dagger now has a listed bonus of "+8% poison damage". Does this mean:   * Whenever the dagger deals damage, it deals an additional 8% of that damage as poison damage?   * Whenever my character deals poison damage from any source, it deals 8% more damage?   * Whenever the dagger deals damage, 8% of that is poison damage? Or maybe even something else entirely? What's going on here?


How can I create my own Xbox 360 theme?

How can I create my own theme for Xbox 360? Is it relatively straightforward with the use of software (either on the Xbox itself, my PC or a combination of both). Or is there a huge process like when submitting games to the arcade involving approval, assigning points for purchase, etc? All I want to do is use my own background photo/wallpaper.


In Titan Attacks!, is the EARTH achievement broken?

Which of the gold training is most efficient, in terms of strength per gold?


How do I manipulate where the Skeleton King teleports?

In attempting to get Instant Karma, I died a few times on my Wizard then gave up figuring I was too low level to tank incidental damage, though I did get close (12/15). My major problem was trying to get him to teleport near his minions so he would flail about and knock them to pieces. His teleport sometimes seems to follow the path his ghostly essence is moving as he casts it--I was thinking it was essentially an invisible straight-line charge--but other times he goes way off and pops out right on me. Does he commit to landing at a certain spot before the effect appears (can't move very far to reposition between that and him popping out)? Is there a range limit/angular limit to it I can ~~ab~~ use?


How can I track achievement progress?

I'm preparing to clear Instant Karma tonight, but I want to know how much progress I have made in the achievement. Is there a way I could track my achievements (like the quests are track-able at the right side)? Or I need to keep waiting until I get it?


What does the Staff of Herding do?

I have found the Recipe for something called the Staff of Herding. Upon closer inspection it does a measly 3.5 damage per second, but the ingredients to craft it (which include Wirt's Bell, a 100,000 gold investment) are extremely expensive. Is it possible that this staff is for a secret level? Is it just achievement fodder?


How to test weapons in Battlefield 3 without affecting accuracy score?

Do you know of any time when the game is [not] counting the bullets you fire or registering any hits or misses? Would the time when there is this "Waiting for players" message be suitable? The reason I ask these questions is that, as mentioned in the main question in the title, I want to be able to just change weapons, test them out with different setups, suicide the kit character, switch to a different kit or weapon, test again, and rinse and repeat. My best guess is the "Waiting for players" screen, but I'm not 100% sure that firing bullets in the air during that time really doesn't count; I hope so. Can anyone confirm this or give me a different tip to test weapons? Many thanks for anyone taking the time to offer tips or information.


Why am I still gaining infamy even though I am wearing NCR armor?

Am I misunderstanding how faction armor works? It's my understanding that while you are wearing faction armor, NCR for example and attack another faction, Legion, in this case, I would not gain infamy. To test that, I donned some NCR armor and fought some random Legionares. After a few of them went down, my faction rep turned to hated. I figured that waiting a little while and removing the armor would cause me to not be villified. However, I'm still hated. When do I get reputation changes while wearing faction armor? I did have Boone with me, do companions affect rep gains as well?


How to catch up in science specifically with Korea and Babylon in late game?

I was playing in King difficulty (BNW). Without pressure from wars, Korea manage to tech up to complete Manhattan project the same time as I complete Railroads tech in first tech in Modern Era. Literally I'm one era behind him. I was not aware at that time about his ability to boost science when he completed Wonder and he got plenty of them as he tech ahead everyone as well. It might be too late to realize this. Anyway does any one has a generic answer for this situation (not specific on this game or any civ).

Trying to run some 3D game but it's giving an error even though I have the latest drivers. Whats wrong?

“Unable to run because your video card drivers did not install properly, are out of date, or are for unsupported hardware. Please make sure you have the latest video card drivers and even if you do have the latest, try reinstalling them.” I've downloaded the utility application "PC Pitstop Driver Alert2" that reports no updates for my driver. It says the video card driver is already up to date... the driver name listed in Display Adapters is this: **Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.0)** I am running Windows 7 Ultimate Operating System. Why am I not able to run the game? **[EDIT]** The game used to run perfectly when I had Windows XP pro installed in my PC..Now I have switched to Windows 7 Ultimate and been having this problem ever since..I am just not able to run it!..If the drivers are up to date..what's the problem then ?


How do I avoid friendly fire in Starcraft 2 single player?

I often use the attack-move command on my troops, and in the course of events sometimes click on one of my own and kill him/her instead. Is there a method to avoid friendly-fire? I could use the "patrol" command, but I find the P key is too far away for practical use. Edit: I should mention I am playing on hard difficulty.


Are empty fuel tanks cheaper in Kerbal Space Program?

In previous versions of KSP you could adjust the amount of fuel in your tanks so to get better TWR. You can still do it in KSP 0.24 but now the fuel tanks cost money. My question is: if you reduce the amount of fuel in the vehicle assembly building (ei. before launch) will the ship be cheaper?


Is there a strategy for endurance races?

I haven't had any trouble getting 1st place on the Endurance challenges in Real Racing 3 up until now. I'm playing the "Maplethorpe Tyres Precision Driving" Endurance event, and for some reason I can't seem to get more than about 6.5 miles or so before the time runs out, no matter how well I drive the course. And yet I'm seeing there are people out there logging 10 miles or more. My cars aren't fully upgraded; but could that really be the 3 to 4 mile difference? Up until now I haven't had to fully upgrade my vehicles to stay competitive so early in a series (I'm only 34% through this one). I even skipped ahead to the next couple of events and won them easily. So what am I doing so wrong on this one?


What's the secret to playing Sniper?

I enjoy playing TF2, and I've been spending the past half year trying to touch up on my skills. The only problem I have is playing Sniper. A lot of professionals tell me it's an easy class, that it's simply and Point and Click class. However, I have experienced multitudes of problems. I can't consistently get headshots unless I stand absolutely still, something which tends to get me killed. Also, I have trouble predicting where enemies move. I've seen many videos of competitive snipers who take less than 2 seconds to aim, shoot, and get headshots. How can I improve upon playing Sniper? Are there any secrets to playing this class?


Does education spread across cities to increase tech level, and how far?

If I build an education specialist city and remove all other education buildings, am I right in thinking that all of my students in the nearby cities will commute there for study, grow up to become educated workers, and over time increase the tech level in the surrounding cities? Or do you need a college/university within an industrial city in order to increase its tech level? Also, what's the maximum distance that Sims will commute for study? Is it just within each 4 city area of a region surrounding a great work, or even less?

Are high density buildings larger on avenues than for streets?

I notice that the guidelines for avenues are further apart when placing avenues than when placing streets. Does this mean that the high density buildings for avenues are larger? Or does it take into account the fact that avenues are wider? It just seems that the spacing between the avenues is too wide, even after accounting for the double width of an avenue compared to a street.


How much does supply and demand affect global market prices?

I heard exporting large volumes of a good will lower prices over time. I think I've seen prices change, but haven't paid much attention to them. My city exports a lot of TVs and I was wondering how low the price can go.


What is the relationship between zone density and wealth?

I am wondering if there is a relationship between a zone density and residential wealth? For example, do high wealth Sims only live in high density areas? Also, how do you get high density industrial? I've tried placing parks around my industrial zones but I did not notice any change in my density.


What are effective ways to get a lot of experience (CP) when clearing an outpost?

In Far Cry 3, you get a massive experience bonus when you clear an outpost without being seen. It seems that this is no longer the case in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Should I still attempt to clear an outpost stealthily? Is there another bonus or advantage to clearing an outpost without being seen? **What are effective ways to get maximum or optimal CP when clearing an outpost in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon?**


How do I stop water from covering the map in the conquer the world campaign?

I am not sure if this is a bug in the game, but I've reinstalled the game completely many times. Whenever I play a "conquer the world" campaign, after a certain amount of time the map becomes filled with the sea and water. Though the game is still working, I am not able to play because of the terrain. I've tried to google it, but I am not able to find anything about this. How can I avoid or fix this issue?


Do Painted Cowmanglers actually exist?

I've been getting into TF2 trading a lot more now, and I heard of something called a paintable Cow Mangler 5000. Apparently, applying paint to the Cow Mangler would give it a unique color of fire. Unfortuantely, I can't find any evidence online to support the existence of a painted Cow Mangler, let alone on the official TF2 Wiki. Does such a thing exist? Is there evidence to support this?


How can I most effectively roll the world?

I started playing the game Don't Starve yesterday and find it really difficult to get a base set-up. I fear I might have simply rolled a world that is too hard to play. When starting a new world, what do I want it to include the most of? For example, my current world has a _very large_ rock field (30-40 boulders very close to the spawn), a forest of trees and berry shrubs. A huge field of grass (probably close to 100+) -- but I'm not seeing many rabbits or any pigmen and beefalos. I start by the swamp (and die often randomly to large tentacles) and there's a graveyard nearby I could farm for tons of research points. In addition to animals is there anything else I'm missing and might need to have a good "first-time player" world? Should I just give up and start a new world altogether? If I do what should I be looking for?


How can I legally try Wii games before buying them?

The only method I can think of is to download a ROM and test it with an emulator, and then delete it 72 hours after I download it. However, I'm uncertain if this is legal. How can I test a Wii game before buying it?


Does a villager only ask you to add a police station (or other public works) when they approach you?

I know that the Police Station is a public works project that must be requested by one of your villagers. I also know that villagers will see you, an exclamation point will appear above their head, and they will walk straight to you until you talk to them or ignore them. My question is, will they request a public works project only in this case? When they approach you? Or can they request it during any conversation, even if they don't approach you first?


Will I lose friends if I ignore them?

When using the Streetpass feature of Mii Plaza, you walk around and gather 'friends', which shows up as a notification (Green LED light on the 3DS, and a green dot on the game icon). Can I safely ignore these notifications for an extended period of time, without losing the new friends they bring into the Mii Plaza? (I'm getting sick of watching all my heroes turn back in _Streetpass Quest_ , as I'm waiting on someone with White Magic to light up a room). I'm thinking of leaving it from 2 to about 5 days.


how do I kill bosses?

Undead Yahua and other Undead bosses take 10 lifes of my hero, but are hardly damaged by my troops. I use witches, archers, hammer soldiers and crossbows, all of them level 5. X Liu Bei is on level 15, with a Fire Fan and Flying Sand (all soldiers rend armor +20%) As far as I remember I had no problem with them when I used taoist Priests. Are these bosses especially vulnerable to lighning, and immune to everything else? These bosses only come in the arena.


Dashing vs Non-Dashing, and Stalking in General

In XCom:EU I tend to alert the enemy a lot and can not sneak up on them. Thus they get the first retreat and usually the first shot starting the next round I know there is Ghost Armor later in the game but for the early game:   * Does dashing causes more noise? Can you stalk better if you don't dash?   * Does ground type affect detection? Cocrete vs metal   * Does jumping over logs create noise?   * Even better does the game even factor in noise like the older games? I know the squad can hear enemy movement. In the other UFO/Xcom games there were stalking abilities. Are there any skills that improve stalking in XCom:EU


What am I supposed to do with all these fish?

In _Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons_ , you eventually come to a chapter where there is a waterfall leading into a pool full of fish. I'm stuck with what to do next. Moving the brothers around in the pool, they can sort of corral the fish, but they eventually just swim away. The action buttons (triggers) don't do anything specific with the fish either, the brothers just splash in the water as they do in other water areas. Am I missing something to do with the fish, or is there something else I need to do to continue on with the level?


How can I get the potion in "Having", level 69 of Spelling Jungle?

I'm trying to get the red "L" potion on the far right of the screen, and failing. How can I get it? ![screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/hOWCm.png) For those who haven't played this game, the mud makes you slide -- whatever direction you start moving in, you continue in until you hit a rock/water/grass/etc. To get the potion I would need to feed the apple to the hippo and ride it over there, but I can't get the apple. Sliding towards the apple from the space immediately to the right of it makes me fall into the pit. Sliding towards it from further to the right doesn't work since the wind spirit blows you downwards, and I think I'd just slide into the pit again otherwise anyways.


How to beat Sky O’ Love Challenge Mission?

We just tried (me and 2 friends of mine) to beat the _Sky O’ Love mission_ in Dungeon of Defenders. We spent an hour and we reach "only" wave 8/10 and we desisted. It was really difficult let the lovers meet. Do you have any suggestions to speed up the things? I am not sure I can tolerate all this hearts and rainbows for more than 1 straight hour...


Why is my PSVita not charging through the USB port on my PC?

I want to charge my Vita via my PC's USB port. When I connect it, it hooks up to the PC and I can transfer items back and forth, but it does not charge. I looked around and saw a few posts saying that you have to enable it in the options, which I did but still it doesn't work. My USB 2.0/3.0 ports work for charging since I also charge other things, such as my iPod, iPhone, etc. Is anyone else having problems charging the Vita from a PC?

Chest or corpse with three Souvenirs of reprisal

I am fairly sure somewhere in Dark souls there is a chest or corpse with three souvenirs of reprisal on it. Similar to how you can find 3 sunlight medals in Anor Londo. However I can't remember where I found them. Does anyone know? I searched around but found nothing.


How does "Flush" work in XCOM?

I'm having trouble understanding when the Assault ability "Flush" works and when it doesn't. From the XCOM wikia page: > Fire a shot that causes enemies to run out of cover. The shot is easy to hit > with, but does reduced damage. That page goes on to say that Flush adds +30 to Aim, halves the damage, and that even on a miss it can force a target to move. But I've tried it several times, and the Muton at the business end hasn't budged. Are there certain enemies this doesn't work against? Are they protected from moving if they're in full cover, or they have cover from two directions?


Am I a person eater?

Why can't I download Mtg: Duel of the Planeswalkers 2013 on ANY of my systems?

This actually isn't my problems it's my friends. I'm describing his issue with the details he gave me, if more or needed comment it and I'll ask him and add as appropriate. My friend has an xbox slim, an Ipad, and a normal PC. Everytime he tries to download the game Magic The Gathering: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 on ANY of his devices he encounters the same error: It says he needs IoS 3. I told him already that obviously his Ipad needs to be updated, however, there is no reason he should receive this message on his xbox or his pc. Ideas?

Can I cheat on my ME1 sweetheart in ME2 and keep our romance going in ME3?

I'm playing through ME2 with FemShep carried from ME1 where I romanced Liara. As I understand there are three romance candidates for each gender in ME2 which will unlock the Paramour Achievement and have negative impact on your lover in ME3. There are also three "flirt interests" which do not unlock said achievement and will not be considered an act of adultery, if I'm correct. In short, what I'm wondering - can I go "all in" with Kelly Chambers, Samara or Morinth and still keep my "real" love in ME3?

How to deal with the swarm?

I'm playing Dead Space demo for the Xbox 360 and this thing is sick. And when I say sick I mean, dissolving-puppies-with-acid-and-feeding-poor-children- with-the-resulting-paste sick. Anyhow, I'm using some weapon that cut the things into little pieces, but the little pieces jump at my neck and kill me, I shake them once but they attack me again. What is the best strategy to kill these horrid undead meats?


How does "wrong-warping" happen, and how can I do it myself?

In Zelda Speedrunning, namely Ocarina of Time, one of the tricks that speedrunners can use is called "wrong-warping". As I understand it, this happens when you go outside of a level and somehow go to some other room I don't know it's confusing. So, how does this even happen in the first place? And how am I supposed to do it on my own game?


Zenonia 3: Life Drain on Equipment?

Is it possible to find, or has anyone found equipment with Life Drain (aka **HP Consume** ) attributes on it? I know the Warrior class has a Level 40 skill which gives this, but I want to give my Assassin some sort of Life Drain to make Execution Room runs easier. Thanks.


Is it possible to run the game windowed at 1920x1080?

Why would one want to do this since one may as well just run the game full screen? Well, I will tell one why one would want to do this. I have to turn vsync on to eliminate jagged-edge artifacts that occur while panning from side to side. One of the downsides to doing this is a slight degree of mouse lag that, for me, renders the game almost unplayable. While playing Portal 2 a few weeks back, I learned that running the game windowed at 1920x1080 actually eliminated the mouse lag introduced by vsync. Not only that, you couldn't even tell it was running in windowed mode. I tested running Duke Nukem in windowed mode and, much to my delight, the mouse lag issue went away. However, Duke Nukem's max resolution while windowed is something like 1600x900 (if that's wrong, I'll edit this as soon as I get back from my next playing session). If I could get this to run in a 1920x1080 window, I'd be one happy Duker. I found system.ini and located the spot where it contains the window size and resolution, but it's all funky. In Notepad, there are spaces in between all the characters in the file. In Notepad2, there's a NUL. Editing this file in either text editor appears to corrupt it. Any ideas how to get around this?


Can I register my Skylanders without a portal?

How do I reach 1M coins?

So I finished the main game, completed every level, collected every star coin, I even > finished the secret star world and collected every moon coin Right now I have about 57K coins, it seems absurd to repeat this process 20 times to reach 1M coins... I know playing the game in coop yields more coins, but unfortunately I'm the only one I know who owns a 3DS and lives in my vicinity. So how can I reach the 1M coin target? Do I repeat endlessly the rainbow levels? Is there some sort of glitch? Or am I missing some special game mode which yields unusual amount of coins?


Minecraft constant internet usage

I recently started a minecraft server (locally, my server sits next to my desktop on my local network) and today I noticed that my 200 gb monthly limit is nearing, which is an 800% increase in internet usage. I go to my ISP webpage, and the hourly breakdown and I can clearly see the hours that I was playing minecraft as the hours when downloads/uploads were occuring. Does minecraft really use bandwidth unnecessarily while simply being logged in or playing? (I say unnessasarily because me and my server are both on the same network, there is no external server and no need to go outside my network). Is there any simply solution that I can employ with my router, short of logging in to minecraft and then unplugging the router from the phone line?


Advantages of claiming a keep or a resource to guild

Is there any real advantage or bonus granted to your guild if someone claims a resource (farm, mine or lumbermill) or a keep in Cyrodiil?

What are the different routes to infiltrate Liberty Island?

I am playing through Deus Ex's first mission, where the NSF have taken control of Liberty Island. My mission is to infiltrate my way in and make my way through the statue to find the NSF individual who is coordinating the assault. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/EONSA.png) I went in through the front door, which involved dealing with a variety of security bots, gun turrets and well armed guards.

What are all of the different routes you can take to infiltrate the statue of Liberty?

Why does my temple only give one content citizen instead of two?

I have a size 4 city on Diety level. I'm early in my empire (obviously, my capital is only size 4) so I do not have very many cities. A city this size at this stage should have one content citizen, and the rest unhappy. If I look at my 'happy tab', I confirm this is the default state. However, it shows that my temple makes one of them content, and my warrior makes another content via martial law (I'm a Monarchy). This leaves me with one unhappy citizen, which without any happy citizens **puts my capital into civil disorder!**. Yikes! Upon reading the text of a temple, it states it makes "Up to two unhappy citizens content". I've never run into this before where it had leftover unhappy citizens without using both of its "up to two". Why is this happening? Screenshot of city info:![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/pzXyf.png)


Every time my computer starts it fails to connect to Steam... How can I fix this?

Every time I turn my computer on and it gets into Windows, Steam immediately pops up and says it has failed to connect and that I can either retry or start in offline mode.

Does Pix attack towers?

When you cast "Help, Pix!" and the recipient targets a tower does it add damage or does Pix only attack other units? The description of the skill reads: "If cast on an ally, commands Pix to jump to an ally and shield them. He then follows and aids their attacks." So, does Lulu's passive (and the associated "Help, Pix!") add damage when attacking structures?

I then turned on Youtube looking for videos of impressive runs by people ~~with too much time on their hands~~ trying harder than me, and found a few, like this. However, even their 250k points games didn't result in a wish coming true. Does this game have a end? Can you win?

A dwarf was digging out a magma channel under my thriving fortress , when he stumbled upon an adamantine vein. Praise the miners! Unfortunately, I was invaded shortly after. Long story short, the only survivor except for a caged peahen is a Dwarven child who has been battling a Steam Demon and a Falcon Monster for _weeks_. She's become a legendary armor user, fighter, dodger and observer, but is unconscious, exhausted, winded, pale, hungry, dehydrated and very unhappy. She's also constantly throwing a tantrum.

Spend soul points in ability of your own choosing

I've just started with Rift, but I'm having some trouble spending my soul points the way I want. If I select the skill I want to put a point in, it just says: > "You cannot spend any more points on this Soul until you level up." You can see this in the following screenshot: ![Rift soul tree](http://i.stack.imgur.com/5gDho.jpg) Why is this? I have 1 point remaining, I don't want to spend it in the suggested skill but in a skill of my own choosing. I've tried Googling the issue, and the Soul System FAQ did seem to have the appropriate info: > Why won’t it let me put points where I want? > > The Purpose system is in place in order to guide you to Soul builds that are > widely used and are useful to many players. You can override this system by > clicking on a talent outside of the recommended one.

How do I clean up this space-town?

After having some successful and (primarily) not-so-successful rendezvous in space, the area around my nascent space-base is full of detritus. Ending the missions responsible for littering didn't remove any of the space junk, so now it's just sitting in orbit complicating maneuvers. This stuff generally doesn't have any docking ports or anything like that, so there doesn't seem to be a way to grab on to it with a ship. I'd like to make like a sheriff and clean up this space-town, but as far as I can tell the best way to do that is to run over every individual piece of debris with a ship which, although fun, is neither practical nor efficient (it tends to make even bigger messes). Are there any useful in-game components like grappling hooks or nets or magnets that can grab on to arbitrary components which I've missed, or failing that are there any good mods for playing space janitor?


Companion affection limits

With regards to the companion affection limit, if I have got maximum affection from my companion, is there any penalty for losing affection? Also, whilst my companion has maximum affection for me, will any negative affection gains get weighted against any positive affection gains?

(Front Mission SNES) How can I beat Driscoll in mission 5 (Find Karen's Hospital)

This question is about a mission in the original Front Mission game on SNES. I know it is not required to complete the level (just killing all the normal wanzers is enough) but it seems doable, plus I heard he gives a ton of EXP and money which makes the next few levels easier. The only strategy I have is having the team running around in circles and pepper him with missiles. But once the missiles run out I can't get in range to shoot at him without him killing me in the next turn. So, is there any strategy to beat Driscoll in this mission?


How do I play Spartan Ops?

We've watched all these great walkthrough videos on youtube and want to try those chapters - especially Sniper Alley. Are these chapters accessible only through xbox live? It asks to insert disk 2 - but after I do says there is not enough room. Or do the chapters have to be earned by completing a better score on the campaign. My wife and I have scoured the internet and cannot find anything. Any help, suggestions or especially a link to Halo for lame gamer is most appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Is there a place where i can download the PSVita Content Manager Installer that does not require a net connection?

The computer which I have all my images on and has the most space to store a few backups doesn't connect to the internet so I need to find a version of the installer which works totally offline. Now I did find this site (http://cma.dl.playstation.net/cma/win/gb/) but it says: > During the installation process, dialog boxes might appear that direct you > to download components (additional software) needed to operate Content > Manager Assistant for PlayStation®. If this happens, follow the on-screen > instructions to download the components. Since I can only have 1 computer connected at a time I dont want to waste time shutting down and starting up again between the two if the download is wrong, so is there a place where I can download an installer that doesn't require the internet?


What is the cost with accepting global deliveries?

I have an oil power plant. To keep it running, I am accepting global deliveries. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/4FiEC.png) The expense of running is $856/hour The burning rate is 8.93k barrels/day (k? what does k mean?).

So still with some simple math it does not computer.               8.93 barrels /day      divided by capacity 2000      = 223 days till i run dry.

How much time does it take for a shop to restock caps?

I admit that I'm used to Fallout 3, where stores restocked twice a week. In Fallout New Vegas, how long does it take for stores to restock -- particularly on caps? It feels like it's been at least a week since I woke up in Goodsprings, and the Goodsprings stores aren't restocking on the cap front. (Nor on equipment -- I'd settle for decent stuff to trade, to whittle down my inventory.) How long must I wait?

How can I replace an Xbox 360 DVD drive?

I am not entirely certain of the legality of this situation, and just smack me if it's not, but I have had a problem with my xbox 360's disk drive. After reading a number of guides and such I have come to find a few things.   1. It's possible to replace a drive in the 360.   2. In order to have the replacement drive work correctly (read: work at all), it must have the same lock code.   3. In order to have the disk drives share the same lock codes, one method of doing this is to swap one of the internal boards from the broken drive to a new, replacement drive.   4. There is another method involving getting the lock code itself out of the broken drive and putting it in the working drive. This, by contrast, is done by connecting the drives to a PC and doing something to each of them to transfer the code. Now, in this whole process, I have already gone so far as to order the replacement drive and rip it apart to try to transfer the board. Much to my surprise, the board in this particular bad drive was non-separate-able from the board. The boards were physically soldered to each end of a wire. I opened the good drive to confirm, and it too was soldered together. So I was left with #4 up there. After more research, I found that you need SATA cables and a PC that can handle it, plus some software. I haven't really found anything too much more specific than that. However... I did find that the same method to transfer the lock code is also potentially used to make the xbox read burned media... Just, instead of putting in your broken drive's lock code, you put in some pre-prepared file or some such stuff. * * * I want to make it clear at this point that I **do not want** the drive to read burned media. What I do want is for the drive to work and play my legitimately purchased games again. * * * Now, after all that information, my questions are as follows:   1. Is this method legal?   2. Second, if it **is** legal, how would I accomplish this? Edit: After some talk of this issue the other day, my brother decided that he's just gonna go buy a new one since he doesn't want to wait for me to get mine fixed. So, as if this wasn't a low enough priority already, it's even lower now. I'd still like to get it working if only to have done it once.

Will two local players be able to play on the same team against another team online? A Google search brings up a lot of references to "2-on-2 multiplayer" but I'm not sure if that's referring to the number of people who can play the game, or the fact that the game that you're playing is a 2-on-2 game of basketball.

What are Mystic Coins used for? (And what are  Zommoros's favorite trades?)

Completing the Daily Guild Wars 2 Achievement earns some experience, coin, a chance at a black lion consumable, and a single Mystic Coin. The monthly achievement gives more of the same, including a lump sum of 20 coins. The tool tip implies that this can be used at the Mystic Forge in Lion's Arch, but doesn't say much more than that. What combinations are the coins required for? I'm not looking for _every_ recipe, but non-random recipes should have a "standard mixture", much like how crafting basic arms and armor is, for example, `Metal Chest Panel + Cloth Chest Padding + Insignia = new Chestpiece`. I've heard that these coins can be used to receive crafting recipes, and also high-level weapons - what's the skinny there?


When do the daily achievements reset?

Guild Wars 2 rewards you with a Mystic Coin if you complete a set of Daily Achievements. As their name might indicate, they reset every day, allowing you to complete them again for more arena net points and loot! At what time does this occur?

How much XP does it take per Paragon level?

As of patch 2.0.1 paragon levels are no longer capped. How can I figure out how much xp it takes per level of paragon? * * * Pre 2.0.1 patch: Blizzard announced that there would be 100 additional "Paragon" levels after a player reached level 60. I'm not sure if they announced exactly how the increase in XP would work, but I was wondering if anyone knew the total amount of XP needed to get from Paragon level 0 to 100? A formula would also be helpful. (The only detail I was able to uncover from Blizzard was that the first paragon level would be roughly the amount of xp it took to get from level 59 to 60)


How do you score points in this game?

I have played this game a few times, and it's not clear what you need to do to score points. So, far all I've managed to do is to stay awake for 2 minutes or so, and then punch myself into oblivion. I assume based upon the controls, that there will be some movement in the line at some point? Or is this just a big sociological experiment to see if people will play a game without knowing why?

How can I turn off my TV without turning off my PS3?

I've got it set up so the PS3 and TV communicate via HDMI and turning one or the other on/off turns them both on/off. If I'm in the middle of a video game (and paused) I can turn off the TV without the console shutting down. However, if I'm just at the downloads management screen I can't. Is there a way to temporarily disable the HDMI communication? I'd rather not have to go into the settings for something so simple, but that's probably easier than then RL hack I've been using of pulling the HDMI cable out while I power off the TV.

Why are my Terraria characters restricted from being certain colors?

One of my favorite hex colors is "Slate Gray": `2F4F4F` (or `47` `79` `79`). I'm currently trying to make a character for the first time in Terraria, and I've found that the 'blue' value for color is prevented from being very low; further experimentation indicates that the more likely case is that the sum of the RGB values must be >= 254. This makes a heap of hex colors unobtainable. Why does Terraria limit the character color pallete like this? Are there any workarounds? I'm aware that clothing color will become largely meaningless as soon as I get some armor, but it's the principal of the thing that irks me.


If the father dies before his child is born, will it lose all claims?

I had a strange situation yesterday: One of my courtiers had a strong claim on an Irish county. I married him to one of my daughters, so I would sooner or later be able to get someone of my dynasty on their throne (or whatever the count equivalent for that is). Then, the courtier died without giving me a grandchild. I thought all was lost, but a few months later my still widowed daughter had a child. It was definitely his son, but it did not inherit his claim on the county. Shouldn't it have? I am pretty sure the same situation usually worked out when the father was still around on childbirth. The situation in the county did not change in the meantime, so thats not the reason for the claim not being there. Can somebody explain to me what happened?

How to disable Amazon shouts in Diablo 2?

I'm replaying Diablo2 once again and I would like to leave music and SFX sounds, but I want to mute the Amazon, her constant shouts when she shoots are going on my nerves. Does anyone knows how to disable character sounds and leave only music/sfx? EDIT: I'm aware of MPQ readers available, but I would like to get more certain advice, such as "You need to get tool A, open file B, look for certain rows C and comment/replace them, save file and enjoy the game". Last time when I checked the tools they only could read and export MPQ contents..
