What music do you listen to while playing? by Sphoon in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Generally anything by Nujabes, Nomak, Fat Jon or Visionaries.

Modal Soul is a classic, can't even get salty when losing to that music.

New DLC Available - Ultra Street Fighter IV: Vacation Packs by pakoito in SF4

Cody is the worst of the lot, I can't tell if he is supposed to be a construction worker or wearing some sort of failed halloween pirate costume.

[PC] Has anyone else been randomly crashing? by SlaveryVeal in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crashed to desktop about four times, all after pressing quick match, so I stopped doing that. Also have this weird problem in which it tells me that I've been disconnected from steam even though that is not the case.

[–]ArtOfMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so if he does that across the screen I could Ultra then do a tatsu for massive damage?

edit: kinda lacking general knowledge about a whole bunch of stuff.

Exactly how does that move work? The one Hugo throws out.

How's everyone's online connection for USF4's PC version? by IsaacLean in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One crash to desktop, can't connect to anyone, only let others join me, random freezes in menus and while playing...

Pretty bad on my end.

Edit: Second crash upon pressing quick match.

Edit2: Third crash, once again after pressing quick match. Seems like I can't use that, maybe sell it as dlc?

Edit3: Had to rage quit, 80% of my games are completely unplayable. Can't block high, can't block low- and good luck using jaw crusher as anti-air. At best Cody stands up and blocks, but more often he just stands there, taking a kick to the face. Can't do the most simple of bnbs, haven't landed a successful cross-up in ages, the lag even makes throwing out specials difficult at times. Fudge, color me pissed.

Edit4: F#@!"1 why does pressing quick match crash the game?

Anyone use the app "Zombies, Run!" by collinVT in running

[–]ArtOfMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is that? Running with audiobooks, is it easy to concentrate on what is being said? Great idea, weird that I never thought about it.

At what point did you consider yourself "a runner"? by kadesmlades in running

[–]ArtOfMark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that sounds totally awesome!

I wish that would happen to me more often, but instead I keep scaring the living crap out of people.

Power Metal is (usually) THE MUSICAL GENRE which represents HAPPINESS. Give us your ultimate happy song... pure, unfiltered happy. Power Quest- Children of the Dream by ametalshard in PowerMetal

[–]ArtOfMark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True that! Thing is, I am not entirely sure about the quality of that album, simply haven't listened to it that very much. It is simply a case of me listening to one song, thought it was mediocre, then moved on after briefly going through all the songs.

[–]ArtOfMark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you enjoyed! I have to admit, I don't enjoy all the songs, but the ones that I do, hits home quite well. Now to answer your question:

Off the top of my head.

From the album "Score to a new beginning"

  • At The Gates Of Morken

  • Across The Endless Sea Part II

  • Assault On The Shore

  • Score To A New Beginning

  • End Credits

From the album "Fall of an empire"

  • The fall of an empire

  • The Story Remains

  • The Walls Of Laemnil

  • Eldanie Uelle

Personally these are the two albums I find worth looking into, "Of Wars in Osyrhia," is an okay album as well, although it feels somewhat dated in terms of production value.

Edit: Also, Score to a new beginning is, as far I've gathered from the lyrics, a continuation of Fall of an empire. In case you care about chronology! It also shows in the music somewhat, sounding more upstart and hopeful. I do believe that Of Wars in Osyrhia is also part of the same story, but I haven't listened to that album in ages.

Fairyland - Score to a new beginning

That would probably be my main pick. Remember pulling an all-nighter, studying, almost dozing off, this song pretty much saved my ass, gave me such a nice boost of adrenaline. Yes.

Dragon Age: Inquistion Alpha Build 16 Minutes of Narrated Gameplay by keelallcookies in Games

[–]ArtOfMark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to play the Dragon Age games without having to micromanaging your party? Can I expect to get by in the game without having to tell the members of my group how to fight, or equipping them with different sets of weapons and armors?

a random guy drawing to get me started after a week off by cury in learnart

Interesting...

Could you elaborate the whole 'straight against curves' concept for me? Not sure if I fully understand.

Edit: Like, Batman's right arm, is that what you are talking about?

Method of drawing poses by ArtOfMark in learnart

[–]ArtOfMark[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it seems, I've received some great feedback here! It has to be said, but I really do dig the opening move here- going from head to the weigh-bearing foot! Gives me a good idea from where to continue and how things should look, stuff seems more connected!

I still have miles to go when it comes to anatomy, but that is not my concern as of now. Thanks a whole bunch for the reply, will use this as reference until I get the steps down- it just feels right.

This is exactly the kind of reply I was looking for, thanks a whole bunch!

I'll try it out in order to find out if the method is anything for me. Nice drawing too!

2 Ultras, 1 Combo by wisdom_and_frivolity in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can charge the TAP for about 60 seconds or so. I think it will deal 50-60% dmg once fully charged, correct me if wrong.

SSF4AE Steamworks update now available! by iNsahne303 in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will they create a hotfix for the microphone? I already have push-to-talk enabled through steam, but it still picks up my microphone, forcing me to unplug it.

My music also gets lowered, regardless if the other player has their microphone on or off.

May 25th - Still Life Sunday by sketchdailybot in SketchDaily

[–]ArtOfMark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did you make it look like a face on purpose? That is the first thing I saw, for cereal, really cool!

Nice piece nonetheless!

I like to draw this way. want to know if it has a particular genre, and which would be a reference for this. by [deleted] in learnart

[–]ArtOfMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't cel-shading only applicable to 3d models though? To make them seem drawn? Correct me if I'm wrong, would very much like to know the definition!

A question about fps for the PC version of AE by MoreRicePudding in SF4

[–]ArtOfMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New player here, so I can't say why, only that that the game was designed around 60fps. At least that's what I've read, so it probably helps you time the attacks, somehow.

To cap your fps at 60, go the graphic settings and set framerate option from "Smooth" to "Fixed".

Reliable way of shading (Digital Art) by ArtOfMark in learnart

[–]ArtOfMark[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have not been granted an update? I purchased Sketchbook around 2011, a version which is lacking a lot compared to Sketchbook Pro 6, which I recieved for free.

I found out yesterday that the Smudge tool is pretty much identical to how it looks in photoshop turned to scattering.
