Where can I find the keys for the locked doors on the first floor?

I recently finished Go Home, but I never managed to find the keys for both of the locked doors on the first floor. One leads to the basement, and I'm not sure where the other one leads. I've been over the entire house twice, but without any luck. Unless these keys don't exist, then I obviously missed them. Where can I find the keys for both the locked doors on the first floor?


At which wilderness level am I unable to teleport?

I heard that you can't use teleports past a certain wilderness level and I would like to know after which level that happens. And is that level different for the various teleport options?


Can I sort my Steam games by installed size?

Apparently my puny hard drive can't handle the awesomeness of Payday 2, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and Fallout: New Vegas all being installed on my hard disk at the same time. I spent all my money buying Payday, XCOM and New Vegas so now I can't afford a bigger hard drive. I need to uninstall some of my old games to make room. **Is there a way to sort my Steam games by size on disk?** I would prefer to only remove one game rather than several.


How can I tell if Nintendo Wii accessories are genuine/official?

The Wiimote and Nunchuk resale market (e.g., Amazon/eBay) varies between questionable and legit. Many reviews complain about scam products mixed in with resale of certified genuine hardware. What are the easiest ways to visually tell official Nintendo Wii Remote Plus and Nunchuk hardware apart from knockoffs if a scammer tries to pull one over on me?


Understanding fleet composition

After I board a ship or force one to surrender, I'm given an option of adding that ship to my fleet. What are the effects of various fleet configurations? WIll my ship move at the speed of the slowest ship in the fleet? Will the ships help me in battle somehow? Do I need to worry about maintenance or something like that? Which ships make the best escorts for my flagship?


How to kill Janissaries

Is there an efficient way to tackle these guys? I've tried quite a few things and have resorted to running away and hitting them with throwing knives or bombs. I can't seem to find the tutorial on how to beat them. http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Janissaries


Is it considered cheating to use multiple devices?

Until such time that I have a power pack I'm considering installing ingress on an old phone so I can keep playing longer. Assuming I can get it running would this constitute cheating? I can't find anything in the terms of service, surprisingly even about using 2 devices at the same time (though I'm not sure what you would gain by doing so) Since my intention is to increase playing time obviously I intend to use only one device at a time


Does the order of Portal Shields matter?

As Ingress Field Guide(along with many other Ingress game guides) states that each portal shield placed after the first one will have diminished effect. > **Portal Shield:** > > A type of MOD that can be installed on a Portal to increase its defense > against attacks. You can deploy up to 4 shields per portal, but each shield > has diminished effect after the first one. What I wonder is, ordering of the shields after the first one is differed or not. I mean, Placing               VR, R, C, C *      and               VR, C, C, R *      are differed in effect? * * *               * VR: Very Rare,        R: Rare,        C: Common


Livestream no longer working on Black Ops 2 on PS3

My livestream on Black Ops 2 for PS3 is no longer working. I tried to livestream, it allowed me to for short periods of time for like two days. Now whenever I try to, it doesn't let me at all. Both my Youtube and Twitch accounts are connected, I've tried streaming on League Play and Public match, I've reset my router and PS3, I have the correct MBPS speed to be able to livestream (I have checked via SpeedTest)... Nothing will work! It let me before perfectly fine but now the "ON | OFF" switch doesn't do anything, it won't even turn on and give me an error, it just doesn't move, as if none of my accounts are connected. Speaking of, I have unlinked and reconnected them, too! It's quite irritating since it was just working the other day. People have said it might be because so many people are on... or you have to have a certain number of subscribers on Youtube, etc. That isn't a problem. I've got 100+ subscribers on my Youtube, and like I said I have streamed before about 2 weeks ago with no problem! I don't know what to do and I just wanna stream. :( If anyone can help or has any suggestions, please let me know!


What effects does 'Post Processing' in the 'Visual > Custom Render settings' do?

Since Post Processing is pretty much a catch-all term for different kinds of visual or graphics effects, I'm wondering if I should disable it or not, depending on its effects specific to Dead Case 2. I especially would like to know if it does post process-AA (like FXAA), as I am already forcing 8x MSAA on Dead Space 2 in my graphics card's driver. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/WhQ6C.jpg)   ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/iHhNQ.jpg)   ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/u6cIv.jpg)


How does Even Teams in NCAA Football 11 work?

How, specifically, does the Even Teams feature work? I know it alters the overall level of each category of one team to match the other team, but it obviously doesn't match teams on a player to player basis (at least not as far as individual stats). Also, are there any problems/exploits that are known to arise from the way the game evens the teams?


What is "dual-boxing"?

I've seen it refered to in a couple of (closed) questions like this one.   One comment seemed to indicate it's a World of Warcraft term for a second character; is that correct? What's the meaning of the term?


In Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, is it possible to change the time? If I recall correctly, you can bring up some sort of UI for that but it required a code of sorts...


Street Fighter IV Achievements on iPhone

When I finish SFIV on iPhone I get presented with a screen that says something along the lines of: "You have unlocked the following achievements blah, blah, blah..." What is the purpose of achievements in the game? Where can I view all of my achievements? As well as the message above it also has another message which will say you have a total of X achievements. However, this number never increases, it is always just 1 or 2. Why is that?


Borderlands 2 Save Converter from PS3 to Mac

Is there a tool that I can use to convert my PS3 saves to Mac-formatted ones? If there isn't one, is there a program I can use to "read" my PS3 save data so I can manually convert a Mac save to a duplicate of that data?

How do I access my legacy games using the Battle.net desktop app?

The Battle.net desktop PC app seems to only have _World of Warcraft_ , _Starcraft 2_ , _Diablo 3_ and _Hearthstone_ available for launch and updates. But I also have purchased and attached _Diablo 2_ and _D2: Lord of Destruction_ CD keys to my Battle.net account, but they're not listed. Among other legacy games are _Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos_ , _WC3: Frozen Throne_ , _Starcraft_ and _SC: Brood War_ expansion. Is there some way I can access these legacy games using the app?

Why are pipes rusting and bursting

In Sim City 4, I have a small city with population 1000. I have one water tower and pipes to give the entire area coverage. I'm using about 1/6 of the water tower's capacity. I've funded the water utility over 100%. However, I'm getting burst and newly rusted pipes every month. I've repiped, pushed utility finding to the max and this doesn't slow down the bursting. How do I solve this problem?

Does Sona's passive work on inhibitors?

The Gases, Metals, and Medals from Mass Effect 1... Do they have an effect on ME2?

I just finished playing Mass Effect 1 and completed and now am restarting it to finish up to level 60. I noticed that the entire journal is emptied out meaning that I have to, sadly, recollect all the extras from the assignment missions. Before I start grinding through the game for a second time, is there any benefit to completing these missions when transferring the save to Mass Effect 2?

Is it possible to reset the Skyrim save counter on XBox 360?

I'm a bit OCD, and was wondering if there's any way to reset the save game counter in Skyrim for 360. After each save, even overwrites, it increments the number of the save file. Having saves 130, 267, 489, and 901 is... perplexing for someone with mild OCD tendencies like me, lol. I realize this is somewhat of a "first world" gaming problem, but still. So has anyone figured out if it's possible to reset the save game number in Skyrim?


Does the Steam overlay hog resources?

I'm running on an older machine so resources are limited; this is _not_ a gaming rig. As such, I'm trying to maximize system resources by turning off unnecessary things. Does the Steam overlay consume additional resources? I assume it must, but how much? Is there a process I can monitor in Task Manager to see RAM allocation? Is there a way to disable the Steam overlay entirely?

Who's telling the truth? Saadia or Kematu?

In the quest: "In my Time of Need" Saadia claims:   * "I am a noble of House Suda in Hammerfell."   * _" **The Alik'r are assassins in the employ of the Aldmeri Dominion.** "_ Kematu claims:   * Saadia is known for constantly changing her name.   * Saadia is wanted by the noble houses of Taneth for treason.   * _" **She sold the city out to the Aldmeri Dominion**.

Why no trilane in pubs?

What does "forged by" or "raised by" mean?

On all of the items I've found, there's a blank marked "Forged By" which is filled with "Unknown." I've noticed pets for sale from the tavern owner, and these have a similar "Raised By" attribute, which is so far "Unknown" on every pet I've seen. What does it matter who forged/raised this item? Can I forge/raise items myself?


What do I do with ship gummies?

I have gotten ship gummies from various things (mostly while flying the Gummi Ship). They appear to do various things for my ship (health, shields, and so on). What do I do with them? I assume they are to upgrade my ship. Does it matter how many I use, or in what configuration? Or can I just pile them all on, and have a crazy awesome ship of awesome? Mot importantly - how do I go about actually adding them to my ship? Is there a menu somewhere, or a certain person I need to talk to?


What is the best way to land skill shots at short range?

I am by no means a bad skill shot based player, but it always seems much easier to land a successful skill shot when the target is further away from me. No matter the speed of the skill shot it just seems easier to predict where the champion will be and when you will connect at longer range. At shorter ranges it is just a toss up predicting where they will go, when they try to dodge, or if they will even dodge at all. Its hard to tell in such a short amount of time with them running or advancing. Is there a way for me to practice better skill shots at short range or should I always wait for them to distance themselves and mess up a dodge? I would like to go from 80% success rate to at least 97% in short range. I use smart cast with range indicator so that my cast is pretty instantaneous. Anyone know of any replay of a perfect skill shot game?


What do the x2, x3, x4 numbers by killed bad guys in LEGO Batman mean?

Is there currently a way to play the same character in the same universe on multiple computers?

Is there a point to destroying Mr. Freeze's wives?

In New Game Plus I finally beat Mr. Freeze, but this time I noticed that there were various statues of Nora around that I could destroy with a baterang or by dodging when he shot at me with one behind me. I tried destroying all that I could find, but it didn't seem to do anything. Is there a point to them or are they just eye candy?


Where is the Kassa Fabrication shop on the citadel?

From my ship, I can purchase things that are available for purchase on the Citadel, but there is a 10% markup.

Can I delete a city from my world?

I've started a few cities while I was still learning the ropes. Can I completely delete them and reset their maps for later use, or am I stuck with them now?


Where Can I Find Stardrops?

As the title says, where can I find **Stardrops**? I'm having no trouble with drops / stealing for Planetdrops, Moondrops, and Sundrops, but I haven't had any luck with Stardrops. And, as it turns out, it seems that most of the familiars I'm using need Stardrops for the metamorphosis.


How to quickly find points of interest (waypoints, entries, quests zones) in the randomly generated areas?

If you have a look at the main map of any act (`U` by default), you can notice that areas are oriented. For instance, in the first act's main map, Tidal Island is south of Terraces. And indeed, I've always found Terraces at the far south of the Tidal Island area. Same goes for some other areas, like in Act 2: the Tree Roots recovering the Vaal Ruins' entry is always somewhere at the north of the River Crossings area. ![Tree Roots](http://i.stack.imgur.com/OrVFe.jpg) Is there some kind of constraint on the orientation of the points of interest during the generation of an area ? Is it possible to use it to buy some time while looking for something specific in an area (a waypoint, for example) ?


How can I find carrots and potatoes in an older (pre-vegetable) minecraft world seed

So have been running an older version of Minecraft for a while, which was before the update with carrots and potatoes. Now that I have updated to the latest version of the game, I was wondering how carrots and potatoes will spawn in the map. Will I be able to find them anywhere, or only in places I had not previously explored? Thanks!


What determines which weapons the team AI bots will use?

In this level, I've noticed that the two team AI bots appear to be using the primary (AK.762) and secondary weapon (Compact-5) that I am currently using. Does the weapon I'm currently using determine what the team AI bots will be using? Or is this decided by another factor? Do team AI bots also switch between their primary and secondary weapons, or do they use one weapon type only? Do team AI bots use weapon mods? If yes, what determines which weapon mods the team AI bots will use? Is it the same as the host's currently equipped or stocked weapon mods?


Can a Pokemon get a status condition of the same type?

I know the title might sound a little confusing, so let me give a couple of examples. If a pokemon is a poison type, can it be poisoned? If a pokemon is a fire type, can it be burned? This also goes for the other types; electric > paralyzed, ice > frozen. And of course if I'm missing any others. In my experience of playing the games, I don't recall a time this ever happened to me.


Do the Riddler interrogations ever end?

In _Batman: Arkham City_ , you eventually acquire the ability to spot informants for Riddler trophies (they're highlighted in green while in detective mode). I've noticed that these informants keep popping up in the same spots after interrogating them earlier. Do they always show in similar spots, and do they stop spawning at some point after you've gotten all the information about an area out of them? Or will they just keep spawning? I've only probably located (not gathered) about 75% of the Riddler trophies on the map at this point.


what exactly does 'National Focus' do in Victoria 2?

When I want to have more clerks in a province, I set the NF on it to get clerks and they magically increase. Does the National Focus add people on top of what the province would get on its own? Or does it increase the % rate? Related question: I want more clergy so I set NF for that in the province. Does the effect increase if I lower taxes for the poor so more people promote to clergy? Or should I just stick the NF and forget about it?


What is the highest O Power Level in Pokemon X/Y?

So I have seen some questions related to how fast O-Powers level up but I am curious as to how high they can go. I have a level 2 O-Power, can it get to level 3? And once it does, can I take it higher than that?


Can I farm soul hearts from Larry Jr?

I've noticed that the poo piles left by Larry Jr (or the later stage unnamed twin worm-like things) can be broken for hearts and soul hearts. Is there a limit to how many drops can be made from Larry poo, or how many poo piles Larry can drop? If not, one could potentially fill the health meter with soul hearts, right?

In Garry's Mod, is there any way to stand on a moving object?

I've been struggling to create contraptions in Garry's Mod lately simply because I have tendency to want to be moving around on a flying vehicle that is also moving around. Try as I may I can never get this to work, as I often end up falling through the base of the flying vehicle, get killed by the objects on the vehicle, or simply come off the edge. Is there any way to avoid this? Just to be able to stand still would be great for everything from trains to space stations to aircraft! If it can't be done in vanilla GMod, I'd be happy to take addon suggestions, or ideas for a lua script if none exist.


How does Zen Ball work?

I've been playing Peggle for a very long time, but I still don't know everything there is to know about Zen ball (master hu). Here's what I know (or at least think I know). Feel free to correct any of my assumptions or offer any other interesting facts. I'll give the answer to whoever provides the most useful or interesting insight into the algorithms behind Zen ball.   * Zen ball will simulate a few (maybe all?) possible shots within a certain arc of your beginning shot and improve the shot based on the ending score of the shot.   * After calculating, a percentage will usually appear (i.e. "240% more zen achieved") - This is the amount the score improved with the shot that Zen ball has given you.   * The calculation factors in style points when choosing which shot to choose. Some things I would like to know:   * Sometimes it won't list the percentage increase in zen, but simply "Zen Achieved" or "Maximum Zen Achieved." What do these mean and what's the difference?   * Based on my own experience, I feel like Zen Ball may have gotten a nerf between Peggle and Peggle Nights. Is there any truth to this, or am I imagining things?

Does reflect prevent damage in Torchlight 2?

How does "%X reflect damage" enchant on items work? Is the damage applied to the character and the reflect in % to the enemy? Does it mean that it is useless with character with high percentage of block and/or dodge (or engineer with force-field)?


What are the benefits of signing a contract?

In Star Conflict, you can sign a contract with a faction. The UI does not describe what exactly the benefits are. Also, it gives you a warning that it terminates all current contracts, even though I am only a member of the Empire. So the questions related to this are:   * Is a contract additionally to the membership in one of the 3 main factions?   * What benefits do I gain from signing a contract?


How to view old battle reports in BF3?

After a night of gaming I wanted to check the battle report of one of my rounds in Battlefield 3. I am probably missing something or Battlelog is just borked as usual, but how do I view old battle reports? I can only see the last five maps and didn't find any way to see the older reports. (It was the sixth report I was interested in :p)


How can I fully complete Antichamber demo?

I have played the May 2010 demo of a game called _Antichamber_ , formerly known as _Hazard: The Journey of Life_. Walkthroughs are available on Youtube, see for instance this one if you are not afraid of spoilers and want to get a glimpse at the game. Yet these are a kind of speedrun, and I would be interested in a complete playthrough of the demo. Here is the map of the chambers at the end of my playthrough: ![map](http://i.stack.imgur.com/YK8Vi.jpg) Here are the achievements I got at the end of my playthrough: ![achievements](http://i.stack.imgur.com/eBVFd.jpg) I have put red dots at the locations of missing chambers. I am not sure these are available in the demo, since:   1. Some of them are listed, _at the very end of the demo_ , under a caption "Look at all of these unsolved puzzles." and a remark about the upcoming full game.   2. At the end of the demo, there is a no-return point when we get a binary gun (addition/subtraction), which would prove helpful in my opinion in some puzzles. So, has anyone played this game already? And have you solved additional puzzles?


What sorts of unlockables are there / how do I get them?

I've unlocked a new deity so far, as well as a few weapons and a spell. What other things can I unlock? How do I unlock things? Is it just random when I finish a match?


What does this enemy effect icon mean?

I'm seeing a strange icon appear over enemies on a random (fairly rare) basis. The icon I'm talking about is shown on the left side of the screenshot below: ![Strange icon](http://i.stack.imgur.com/KQRbz.jpg) In this screenshot, you can see it appear over two stone pillars. When it appears over normal enemies, they appear to run away from me. None of my gear currently seems to have a unique effect (it's all pretty standard stuff), so what am I missing? Any ideas as to what this icon means? **Update:** So I was able to recreate the icon on the practice dummy in town, but there's no associated effect icon above the enemy health bar! Here's yet another screenshot: ![Screenshot of strange enemy icon](http://i.stack.imgur.com/fSHD8.jpg) Note that the only two effect icons that show up are, in this instance, burning and my weapon's special effect (which happens to be silence, if I remember correctly). I've seen these icons outside of seeing the large yellow one above the enemy, so I don't think they are related. The mystery deepens...

What's the best way to level my warrior?

In Dragon Age 2, what Attributes and Abilities should I focus on when leveling up my Warrior? I planned to keep him fighting with two-handed weapons and of course I know strength is important, but are there any things worth knowing, any attributes I can ignore completely?


Is Knight Lautrec of Carim an evil NPC?

I've just found an NPC locked in a cell, and rescued him. He told me he is _Knight Lautrec of Carim_ and he will give me a reward later. However, if I press him, he tell me: > I'm free. Now I can get back to work...   >  Keh heh heh heh... I'm worried after hearing this line. He reminds me of _Yurt, the Silent Chief_ in _Demon's Soul_ that went killing other NPCs after you freed him. Did I made a mistake when I freed him? Will he kill other NPCs? Should I kill him right now, while he is still sitting in his cell?

Is there a limit to the number of item in inventory?

I'm wondering if there is a limit to the weight one's character can have in it's inventory. In the character status page I can see that there is a limit to the weight of the equipment, but I don't find one for the inventory. Can I carry each and every item I find? If there is a limit, what is it? Where can I find it? Does it depends on character's stats (strength)? Is there a NPC that can store the items I want to keep, but can't carry?


After completing the 'main' quest, is there any sort of reward or recognition for your accomplishments?

So I finished the main story. I got back to Tamriel, expected some kind of a ... reward. You know, for saving the world etc. But _nobody_ I've spoken to seems to care at all about that. Am I doing something wrong or is the main storyline actually ... not that 'main'? In Oblivion, after finishing the game, I got a title, equipment, everybody talked to me like to a hero, there was this big _Martin_ Dragon in the Talos Plaza in IC, but nothing grandiose seems to be here this time :/ I don't mean this question as a request for opinions, I know that is not allowed at stackexchange, I just want to know if that's really it?

Does the timing of a game release affect sales?

I know that in Game Dev Story, the time you release your game can have a noticeable affect on sales (ex. early December). The in game hints and tutorials don't mention timing releases at all. Does releasing games at a certain time increase or decrease sales?

Cannot save games after migrating PlayStation 3 save files

My PS3 recently YLOD, but I got it going long enough (via online video tutorials) to transfer my saved _Skyrim_ data to a new PS3. However, it says, "This user already has Skyrim saved data". It allows me to play from my saved point but it won't let me save at all on the new PS3. My old PS3 is kaput, so there is no chance of getting in and backing it up with PS+ (and I refuse to pay). Is there anything I can do?

Where do I put spies in Civilization 4 to protect against rival spies?

I'm playing **Beyond The Sword** and when I want to build a spy I notice they supposedly: `Helps Thwart Rival Spies`: ![](http://i.stack.imgur.com/BXVoT.png) Should I leave a spy stationed at borders? Should I place them cities? **Does it matter where they are placed in order to effectively thwart rival spies?** I can't seem to find any correlation to where I put them and my success rate of stopping incoming espionage. The reason I ask is because I'm playing a world-scenario starting in 1000 as the Indian empire and the starting borders are all mountainous, that is, there are very few entrances I have to guard. They are quick to train and I'm getting constantly attacked by spies - not just in my cities but also towns, watch-towers, farms, etc. ## Update: I'm not sure if this has to do with anti-spy buildings (e.g. Intelligence Agency) or because I've stationed a spy in every city, but I'm seeing a _huge_ increase in these messages: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/9180a.png)


Advantages of Chain Mail over Studded Leather

So my goal of becoming a Chain-Smith was slightly hurt when I was looking through the wiki trying to figure out how Quality of the armour affects damage reduction. When I noticed that Studded leather has the same damage reduction as Chain Mail being Moderate (Source). Not only that but Chain Mail receives a reduced movement speed and weighs more. Besides being easier to make does Chain Mail even provide better protection then Studded Leather?


What does this symbol and number mean?

See my screenshot - What does the tower symbol mean in the bottom left? And/or how is it different from the symbol in the top right? I know the top right symbol and number means how many floors you have, but the symbol and number in the bottom left is clearly different... The numbers at the bottom: Mine in the far left one and I have 17 floors. My friend is the middle one, and he has 40+ floors...![Tiny- towers](http://i.stack.imgur.com/A2ccF.png)


How do I beat my nemesis as a Sauceror?

I have beaten everything my nemesis has thrown at me, but _of course_ he had to have to ultimate final demon form. I keep getting beaten up in this final fight. He does ~100 damage to me every round, that wouldn't be a problem if I didn't need 4-5 rounds to dish out enough damage to get him down. Still no problem there, except that I only have ~140 hp, so after the second round I get knocked out cold. What stategy do I need to beat him? I have all the possible saucespheres cast and active.


How do I replace an XBox 360 DVD drive if the original drive is broken?

I bought a used XBox 360 drive with a broken DVD-drive. When I try to play any game, it says "Play DVD" on the launchboard. When I hit A, it gives me a white error screen (pics to come). The Internet tells me this could happen if the DVD-drive motor is dying, but also if the DVD-drive firmware was previously hacked incorrectly. Information on the 'net about replacing the DVD-drive is confusing and conflicting:   * Some places say you can just take any old drive from another XBox 360, but that didn't work - I still get the same error.   * Some places say you need to have the exact same manufacturer and model DVD drive, and it should work. I have reason to suspect this is not the original drive (see below), and there is _no place_ which can tell me what model DVD-drive my model XBox should have come with.   * Some places say you can use any drive from another XBox, but you need to hack it to match the motherboard's "DVD-drive key," a unique key matching every motherboard to the DVD-drive it came with. They say there is no way to get the key from the motherboard (without ridiculous hardware hacks), but you _can_ get it from the original DVD-drive, by hooking it up to a computer and using software which is also used by pirates. I followed all the steps, got the key, uploaded it to the new drive, but it still doesn't work. I suspect the drive it came with is not the original, or the original key was previously overwritten during a botching attempt to hack the drive. **I don't want to pirate games, I just want to have a working DVD-drive.** There _must_ be a way to replace a broken DVD-drive, right (how do the XBox repair shops do it)? **Is there any way to fix this freakin' Xbox!?**

What happens if I get a free tank, when my garage is already full?

After having played the beta back in the day, I returned after a long break, to see that my garage had changed. Some of my tanks had disappeared, and I had to buy them again. I also had a few new starter tanks, because WoT had introduced new lines. I assumed that WoT had removed some of my tanks to make room for the starter tanks. However, after playing some more, WoT has given me a bunch or premium tanks as presents (most likely because I'm such a cool dude) – and I didn't see tanks disappearing. However, I do have 13 slots in my garage, which I'm fairly sure is more than standard. So, my question is, when WoT hands out these free premium tanks during holidays or whatever, what happens if the garage is already chock full of metal cubes of death? Do they give you a new slot? I am on the PC version.


What does a gold rank emblem indicate in Spies vs. Mercs in Splinter Cell: Black List?

In the player listing, while playing Spies vs. Mercs, I've noticed that sometimes the rank emblem is gold (or yellow). I can't find a pattern; usually it's white, but sometimes it's gold, and it changes sometimes, even for the same player. (For example, mine is usually white, but sometimes it's colored gold instead.) What does the color indicate?


How to clean dust and spider webs in my house?

I bought Breezehome and am very happy with it: it is a nice and cozy house with everything I need. However, I couldn't miss noticing dust spots and spider webs in several places. In dungeons it's acceptable, but in my own house? I sought some way to clean my house. First I tried to use Unrelenting Force to blow the dust and spider webs away - no luck. Maybe some fire will burn it and leave the floor/wall clean? No - it just made it worse. Finally a great idea hit me - broom! I found one, took it and was very disappointed to find I can't equip or use it in any way - also tried just dropping it on the spider webs but of course, that did not help. Am I doomed to live in a dirty house?

Random Lightning Strikes

I have been playing FTB for a while now and for some reason I am getting random lightning strikes occurring. There is no storm and the affect does not change when I disable the weather. I have read up on it and apparently it is due to Thaumcraft and having too much flux in one area (I haven't started on thaumcraft as of yet). I noticed that it said the flux could be reduced by planting silver wood trees. I did this (planted at least 7) and they all grew but unfortunately the lightning is still occurring. Is this a bug because it is becoming really destructive and laggy with multiple chunks loaded at the same time in the nether and due to quarries. How can I fix this? I have turned off fire spread but I just want to know how to stop the lightning. Also now that I have planted all these silvewood trees, creepy voices are being played (hopefully through the game). Is this normal?


Are Yasuo's Q stacks lost after revival?

Can I make infinite Bux once I have more than 50% floors?

Once I have more than half of the business floors, then when I use 1 tower bux to move in a bitizen, there is a chance greater than 50% that I will have the business for their dream job, which can provide _2_ bux in return. Is this true? It seems at this point you could constantly move new people in, get the bux from their dream job, then evict and repeat. Has anybody gotten to this point and actually made it work?

How does loot work in Darksiders 2?

I'm curious about what factors go into determining how strong of an item will drop from a certain creature or chest. I've noticed that when returning to "lower level" areas I'm still getting drops from monsters that are level appropriate for the area, however drops from chests in the area seem to be of equal level to my character (not the area). I've also noticed that some boss monsters give you a unique item. Will this item always be the same thing any time it is killed, or do these items change in levels/stats based on some factor? Additionally, are there any factors that change the chance of a better item dropping from a creature or chest? Such as a "normal" chest (the chest with the skull on the front) and the "horned" chest (Chests with the flat top and horns on the side) having different chances of dropping better items, or something to that effect?

What are the business ledgers used for?

Across my travels I've come across 2 business ledgers. I can't remember where the first one was (I think it was some sort of shop or a jarl's room), I found the second one in the stable house. Both of them had the following tooltip when moused over "Forge Numbers Business Ledger". Both times I attempted to use them a message popped up "There's nothing to change in the ledger". What do I have to do to be able to use it, and what does it do when I do use it?


Good map of Skyrim?

I bought Skyrim via Steam and also bought the online Prima game guide. It touts a whole map section, but fails to provide any kind of map of Skyrim. (Kind of lame for a game guide to not come with a map. I give the online guide very low marks.) So, I would like to know if there is a decent map of Skyrim out there yet. (Clearly I can just go to the world map, but I am trying to find a place I have not discovered yet.)

How is Academy Size increased?

In Endless Space, the Academy is used to manage your hired heroes. The size of the academy dictates how many heroes can be hired. Looking around the interface, I don't see how to expand the Academy size or by what means it can be increased. There maybe a research item or a game option to increase the Academy size, but I haven't found it yet. How does a player increase the size of their Academy so that player can have more heroes?


Do monsters spawned from statues drop monster banners?

I've been wondering if monsters spawned from statues drop the monster banners in the 1.2 update.

Am I just unlucky or only certain monsters spawned from the statues can drop the monster banners?

The proper way to evaluate a gaming PC

After years of always having the model of "last year" and thus suffering small but annoying lag in 3D games, I want to ensure that I get a top notch model that can play this year's games with -no- lag. What are the critical factors?   1. 3D graphics card. Looking at GeForce GTX cards (780 in particular).   2. The RAM.   3. The HD (SSD) But I understand after reading online (and playing games for years) that it's not only the 3D graphics card, but the bottleneck that has to be identified. So, how do I find this bottleneck when evaluating new computers?

Can withers be created in a mushroom biome?

I'm currently playing Minecraft on a factions server where raiding is a pretty common occurrence. Obsidian is an effective defense against tnt and creepers, but a wither can still get through it. Would building my next obsidian base in a mushroom biome force enemy players to spawn a wither far away and lure it to my base, or can one be built in a mushroom biome?


What are the unique benefits from each crafting skill in SWTOR?

In SWTOR, the Cybertech skill gives you the ability to make bind-on-pickup speeders. This means that all cybertech crafters will have speeders which other crafters cannot have.

If so, what are they?


Are skill points variable per level in Dragon Quest 8?

Finally got DQ8 for Playstation 2 - as I'm playing through, I'm noticing that the skill/ability points you gain per level is really variable and a little unbalanced. Between levels 10-15, the hero and Yangus were both gaining up to 8 points per level, allowing for rapid gains in their respective skills. Then Angelo comes along and starts gaining a paltry 2-3 per level. Everyone is now approaching level 20 - and while most party members have broken 40 in their main weapon skill, Angelo hasn't even made 20. I also spent some time grinding, and during that time I noticed skill point gains were a lot lower for the levels gained - but now that I'm back to the main story, they're improving again. My question is this: are skill point gains set (e.g. will Yangus always gain 5 points at level 15), or do they change based on certain factors?


Are kills you make after a checkpoint reset if you die in Tomb Raider 2013?

In game I quickly browsed through the menu pages (map, gears, skills, weapons). I could not find a statistics page there. Is there an other location to check for example how many kills you have made with a specific weapon? I would like to know if kills you have made after a checkpoint are reset when you die. I should be close to my 50 bow kills and 50 headshots by now ;)

What happens when everyone on a team disconnects or leaves in League of Legends?

I was playing League of Legend earlier today and someone disconnects from the game. We were actually in the lead before he disconnected but because it turned into a 4v5, we started to lose. Due to this fact, someone decides he was done playing and rage quits. And of course the other two did the same as a 3v5 was definitely hopeless. I decided to stay just for fun so it turned into a 1v5. A one man army. I was curious what would happen if I was to leave too. Would the game end as though we had surrendered? Or would the game keep going for a certain amount of time just in case someone reconnects. This is especially relevant in cases where you are having a LAN party and the internet goes out momentarily. What about if you are having a LAN party with 10 friends and are in a custom game together. If the internet goes out, what happens to the game? Will it automatically end or will it continue for a while in case the players reconnect.


What is Extra data used for?

In the mansion there is an option to save Extra Data which says it's used in future titles, apart from the hint of future Etrian Odyssey games that could be made (possible remakes of 2 and 3) i am wondering, since 2 and 3 was made for the DS and as such can't be assumed the owner has a DSi to have an SD card in, is this Extra Data used in Etrian Odyssey 4 for the 3DS and if so what?

How do i get Mass Effect 3 DLC to work?

I went and brought i think all story based DLC for Mass Effect 3 (Leviathan, Omega, Citadel Part 1 & 2 and From Ashes) and i had already downloaded the Extended DLC which expands the ending. After waiting for about an hour for Leviathan to download i decided to let the rest download in the background as i played the game, i did this with the Extended Ending DLC. It took the rest of the night (from 7PM - 11:30PM) to download everything else, knowing that the DLC won't be working until i restarted the game i quit back to the x-box 360 dashboard and started the game back up, when i went into the menu 3 messages appeared "Checking Downloadable Content" -> "Checking Save Data" -> "Checking Downloadable Content" figuring it was because i had just downloaded about 6GB i thought id's wait, however after approx 1/2 an hour it was still sitting on the 3rd message, all i could do was attempt to connect to EA which i wasn't going to do as 1) i didn't have an account and 2) i saw no reason to since Leviathan worked fine (i could see the new mission in my journal). I had to shut the system down, the next morning i checked the data on my harddrive and saw an file about the title cache and it being incomplete, i deleted this and all the new DLC and the game worked fine (the 3rd message only appears for less than a second), i re downloaded all the DLC this time via the X-Box like i did with Leviathan and wait till it was all done. starting the game up again it did the same thing (3rd message remained), this time i waited 2 hours (10AM -> 12PM, 10AM was when i started watching Maria Watches Over Us and after that was finished i played Etrain Odyssey until it was lunch time at 12) and on occasion turning my controller back on, the 3rd message still remained. I read that there was a problem with the Citadel DLC so i deleted the DLC again and re-downloaded just From Ashes being the smallest, at first it worked and i could access the menu again (3rd message was around for a second) however i wanted to make sure it would still work after i returned to the dashboard and went back into the game. when i did this the problem returned, i did the exact same with Omega, same problem as From Ashes (at first could access the menu but after restarting the game the 3rd message remained) I have a Physical Copy of Mass Effect 3 (Omniblade Edition) and i installed both disks to cut down on load times, how can i get the DLC i spent $50 to work?

Does the Extended Ending DLC contain the Synthesis Choice?

When i saw my dad complete the game i remember him only having 2 choices, to destroy or to control the Reapers and i remember he chose to destroy, i remember the scene well as i remember seeing the shorts of the Illusive Man and Anderson and since i hadn't played the game i saw thinking _did the Illusive Man try and control them already and got all scorched as a result of what i saw in the cutscene_ , i also remember the 2 choices was Blue and Red and had been wondering if the control option was Paragon and the destroy option was renegade. Obviously my dad didn't have the Extended Ending DLC so when i got to the final choice i got the 2 choices he got, after listening to the Catalyst about what would happen to me i was thinking of control as i would probably end up like Madoka from Pellua Magi Madoka Magica, however then the Catalyst game me a third option to merge Synthetic and Organic, the Synthesis Choice. Now i am unsure what decisions my dad made up to Mass Effect 3 so i am wondering if the Synthesis Choice was added because i have the Extended Ending DLC or if i had done something throughout the Mass Effect Trilogy which allowed it and if so what was it.

What can I do to tackle "Rubber Banding"?

For some reason after I came back to my computer after 10 days away, when playing BF3, on any server, I keep getting lag in the form of me or people I'm aiming at springing back and forth in a manner I've been informed is called "Rubber Banding". I've checked my connection speed and it comes out at a consistent 45Mbps so it's not a slow speed generally. What settings can I check/change to combat this?   Are there ports I can open to help? (This never happened before and I never had any more ports open)   Any help would be appreciated.


What's the recipe to not getting obliterated in the final level of Serious Sam: The Random Encounter?

I've tried a number of things. I've tried shotgun-cannon-shotgun, but the shotguns just lack the firepower required in the final level. I've then tried rocket-cannon-rocket, but that leaves my sam's vulnerable for too long. I've tried then rocket-shotgun-rocket, and this kind of works better: I bring out serious firepower right away and the shotgun gets laggards as they approach, but this is hit-and-miss: if I ever lose any of the three that's a life lost. Certainly, during the level I get to have all the cool items: the super- heplful Armor All, the critical Serious Bomb, the handy-for-emergencies Serious Damage and the not-that-helpful Serious Speed; however using one means giving up firing for a minion for the full turn. I even have a few of each spared from the previous stages (not as much as I'd have hoped though), but I find out I can't quite complete the four side fights without using them -- and then I must face the final boss. If the developers' aim was avoiding Too Awesome To Use, it's certainly working. I'm not sure that helps me finish the game, however. I imagine there must be a reasonable way to finish the game, but the options seem kind of limited. How do I go about to solving this final level?

TV displays Gamecube games in black and white and without sound

I connected my Gamecube to my HDTV using a PS3 composite cable (shown below). However, the image displayed is blurry, in black and white, and without sound. The cable fits perfectly on the analog AV out port, so I'm not sure whether this is a problem of incompatibility.

Best ships or fleets for out-of-sector (OOS) combat

Unlike in-sector combat, which is full of variables almost to the point of being unpredictable (especially if you mix in player skill), out-of-sector combat relies on a simple algorithm to determine the outcome. Given this, what ships or fleets will be the best at OOS combat, with the following considerations being used to determine "best", in order of importance:   1. Survivability. Replacing lost ships is a massive chore, and whoever is left alive at the end of the engagement is by definition the winner, so this is top priority.   2. Least amount of player interaction during service. With over 200 sectors, manually managing fleets can quickly become a full-time task.   3. Ability to engage targets at arbitrary locations.   4. FPS impact. Deploying 100 lasertowers around every jump gate and beacon may be effective, but will destroy in-sector FPS, making a whole part of the universe a no-fly zone for the player.   5. Least amount of player interaction during setup. This includes things like creating a massive complex and a fleet of AI ships to distribute missiles to M7Ms or M8s.


Good player ship for anti-capital ship warfare

The Hyperion Vanguard in Albion Prelude seems to have been declawed somewhat compared to the way it was in Reunion and Terran Conflict (less shields, capitals have significantly more hull, super-heavy capitals introduced, et cetera), so I am looking for a ship that will be able to destroy enemy M2 destroyers as well as M1 carriers and their fighter wings. What would be a good ship and loadout for this purpose? My main concerns are:   1. Ability to kill an enemy capital ship quickly. This will likely depend on available weapon mounts, total weapon energy, weapon generator and number of guns that can be brought to bear on a target, ideally front, top/bottom and left/right turrets.   2. Ability to survive enemy capital ship fire. Likely depends on ship profile, shields and maneuverability - a slender Split Python will avoid a great deal of projectiles that would hit a Boron Megalodon.   3. Ability to survive enemy fighter fire. This will likely depend on speed, maneuverability, profile and active defenses.   4. Average downtime between capital ship kills. This will likely depend on type of shields equipped (5x200MJ shields will recharge faster than 1x1GJ shield) shield generators (unless all ships have enough shield generator output to recharge shields at their maximum rate), although "venting" shields by ejecting and picking them up is an option for an otherwise excellent ship.   5. Sustainability. Having to build a missile complex and resupply at it after every 2nd capital killed can get old quickly.

How safe is a player-owned structure in high security space?

I am planning on setting up a player-owned structure (POS) in a 0.5 system once I finally finish grinding my corporation's faction reputation to 5.0 for the Amarr Empire, and I was wondering exactly how safe is such a structure in high-sec? Obviously a player or players wouldn't be able to randomly attack it without CONCORD intervention and it would be safe from capital class ships and higher, but will this make it completely safe? Additionally, am I able to fit shield hardeners, electronic warfare systems like sensor dampening and turrets to a POS in high-sec space? Is the safety of the POS further influenced by anything else (ie: putting it in a 0.9 system instead of a 0.5 system)?

What determines item box spawning at the end of the first Acts?

At the end of Act 1 of most levels, after you defeat the miniboss, the signpost falls out of the sky like so: ![Falling signpost at the end of Lava Reef Zone Act 1](http://i.stack.imgur.com/NUbiO.png) You can bounce the sign around for some extra points, which is great. But sometimes when it hits the ground, an Item box will pop up, allowing you to grab some extra rings, an extra life or a shield powerup (for the next Act). **But what determines when the item boxes appear?** Is it random? Or is the chance affected by other things? For example,   * Do only certain levels give item boxes?    * Does bouncing the signpost around a few times affect the outcome?


What is the right order to play Skyrim?

Another example is when you kill the Boethia's priest, if you read the book while it's on his body will make the Ebony Mail inaccessible at the end of the Boethia's Calling quest)      3) **Visiting places that store special items related to a quest or not talking to people that gives you quests before you enter and "clean" those places.**      Probably there are more common issues, but now I just remember those.      I've already asked: Is it possible to play Skyrim without bugs?. The comments left by Batophobia were useful and I hope I can explain myself better this time.      According to my own experience, those problems could've been avoided if I'd have known the right order. (Instead of killing everyone in a cave, first I should talk to X or read Y, for instance) So, what I'd like to know is the right order of missions.      What I've tried is to finish a quest as soon as I get it, but not always work: when I'm in the middle of a quest and I get another, and if I start the second when I finish the first, sometimes is too late.      I'm not asking about a specific quest, I know. And I know this is not allowed in this forum. If you find this question too broad, please let me know how I should ask, because I haven't been able to play Skyrim without these issues and I'm getting tired of them.      In this question I got this comment: _In that case I suggest saving and trying it. Worrying about every single potential bug in a Bethesda game will drive you crazy. – kotekzot_. Call me crazy then, but I want a bug- or glitch-free Skyrim play.      I'm playing on Xbox.      Feel free to edit and/or to penalize this question; English is not my native language.


Why is Half-Life: Source not eligible for Valve coupons?

According to this Steam Inventory thingy(the link will show a different inventory for you, obviously), I have a 33% off coupon for Valve titles: > 33% off any one title on Steam listed with Valve as the publisher. However, Half-Life: Source does not appear in the List of applicable games for that coupon. Even though the _Game Details_ say > Title: Half-Life: Source   >  Genre: Action   >  Developer: Valve   >  Publisher: Valve   >  Release Date: 1 Jun 2004 So how can I use this coupon to save the incredible amount of 1,65 EUR?


What good is ground meat?

The ingot grinder can ground up cheese to make grated cheese (which can then be used for making an omelet). The grinder can also make ground meat which appears to just reduce the quality of the meat. Are there any recipes or cooking options to make this back into a better food product?


What makes Dark Souls difficult, and is it really as hard as other people say?

I've seen a lot of reviews and most of which say that dark souls is pretty much the hardest game out there at the moment. I'm not usually a fan of **very** hard games but do like a challenge, I'm interested in Dark Souls mostly because of the RPG elements. My question is how hard is Dark Souls, really? Are other people exaggerating about its difficulty? What makes the game difficult?

Keyboard controls show up while using 360 controller

I recently started playing Fable III on my PC and everything was going fine for the first couple hours. After restarting my computer and launching the game again I started seeing the keyboard/mouse HUD show up while not creating input from my controller. This makes menus a pain to navigate, and the HUD constantly changing on me is giving me a headache. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and have you found a fix for it? Controller is a wired 360 controller for Windows.


What's a tier list?

These days I've been trying to play SSF4:AE and SFxT a bit more seriously (I'm a pure beginner in versus fighting games). There are a bunch of things I don't understand at all, but while watching a few replays, I heard commentators talking about the "tier list" and sometimes "god tiers" _a lot_. I've also found a few web comics where these two terms regularly appear. What is it exactly, and how is it established/built up ? Does it exist for other versus fighting games than Street Fighters ?


How many solar panels do I need for a fully automatic Farm?

Using a Farm and a Combine I have a sweet automatic farm set up, which churns out wheat and bread. The only problem is I have to go and fuel the engines (Hobbyist steam engines) every now and again to make the thing tick over. I'd like to use solar power for an unattended farm. I'd use the solar to drive electrical engines. How many solar panels would I need? Is it possible to use only enough solar panels to power one machine, and alternate which engine is powered using redstone? (the turnover is slow, so alternating every few minutes between machines would be fine.)


Connecting my Wii to my TV over HDMI

> **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Can I hook my Wii up to an HDMI or DVI monitor?

Where can I find a dog to fart on?

I'm trying to get the **Dog Whistle** Achievement, which requires that I assume gnome form and fart on a dog. Problem is, I can't find a dog anywhere. The only one I've ever seen in the game is Stans dog that he summons as part of an attack, and I'm pretty much at the endgame. Where are the dogs? I would very much like to fart on one.

Cannot beat Andrew Ryan's army in Burial At Sea episode 2

I'm at the part where you return the hair sample to Suchong and Andrew Ryan sends people after you. I have limited ammo and no health packs (full health, but can't regenerate). At this point, what is the best way to beat them? If there is anything that will help me between getting the hair sample and where I am now, I can try to revert back to a previous save, however I'd like to make use of what I have now, and not going to a save an hour before where I am now.
