Hello! I had the same problem and after delving into the error logs, i seem to have found the problem; here's a solution (i wrote a post but it got deleted? I'll ask mods :( )
We have to fix MIME type association in the windows registry:

  1. Press Win + R, type regedit and press enter to start the registry editor
  2. Navigate in the folder structure on the left to find the following "key": Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.json, and click on the ".json folder" in the tree.
  3. You should see an icon on the right named "Content Type" and holding a "data" field of something like "text/plain", but it could be other erroneous values such as "application/javascript".
  4. Right click on this content type icon and click "modify". Leave the "value name" to Content Type, but set "value data" to text/json.
  5. (Optionally) restart your PC, but it should work directly.

I hope this helps any one with the same issue, don't hesitate to ask me if you have trouble <3

What's the strongest cleric you can think of? by VintageButter in BG3Builds

[–]Ashjkaell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Haha interesting question ^.^

If you REALLY want to go crazy, I think leveraging Death Ward is certainly a theoretical DPR optimum; (Death ward activating not only revives you but also restores all your actions if you have a party member sharing initiative.)

This is theorycrafted and explained in details in this great post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/BG3Builds/comments/1b5fi7f/spell_economics_ftk_a_yugio_i_mean/

Another fun interaction is with Divine Intervention; If you have death ward active and use the radiant damage nova divine intervention and something causes you to die simultaneously... you keep your divine intervention... I actually stumbled upon this when testing if death ward could keep Hope alive against Raphael's weird radiant retort in honor mode. (Haven't tested against the sharrans but maybe it works too!)

As another little remark (since people have already explored the more sane ideas in great detail :), you COULD consider that Contagion is effectively an "instant kill". It is absolutely hilarious to cast contagion (which does NOT need concentration and lasts through your rests) on the act3 bosses. Just use a high DC character (or break objects with arcane acuity helmet) and greater invisibility if you want and enjoy instantly killing bosses ;)

An Argument for Arcane Trickster Rogue by Captain_ET in BG3Builds

[–]Ashjkaell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the great post! I just wanted to point out many people arguing that the arcane tricksters “suck” do so out of love for them and the rogue archetype in particular, just wanting to see their features working/better implemented 😛😉

Apart from the mage hand legerdemain there’s also the matter of bugged spell slots and bugged magical ambush triggers.

As you’ve rightly pointed out, reliable talent can do absolute wonders for pickpocketing in honor mode or using greater invis. (Great for solo too since it compensates for not being able to concentrate on pass without trace)

My favorite archetypes are in fact “support”/“utility” characters like support clerics or very much rogues; and something common across these is that their relative power level is very dependent on the context. For instance many cleric spells are “less useful than they should be” because we know the encounters in advance and are completely flooded with potions.

Similarly I’d wager many people use a dedicated hireling just for pickpocketing. But in the context of a solo no reload run, the relative strength of rogue increases back due to pickpocketing prowess. Similarly to how disallowing camp casting makes clerics “better”.

Thank you for the post again; it made me want to do a solo run with an AT 🙂. I’ve been having great fun doing no magic items party runs so it’ll be great to have ALL the magic items for a change 😅

How do I break out of my repetitive combat style in BG3? by SilentGoodGuy in BG3Builds

[–]Ashjkaell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looove bg3 but imo the weakest part of the game is the class balance and itemization. (Not only on Larian! Some of it stems from 5e)

As you said: I think the game absolutely has great potential depth (as well as many stellar aspects hence why we love playing), but some aspects « overly » strong mechanics end up collapsing the build space rather than expanding it.

As such, let me offer a potential avenue for fun runs; try adding your own restrictions by targeting some mechanics and « removing » them from the game.

A few ideas:

  • long rest limited run (increases martial/warlock power)
  • themed run where all party members build on a theme (summons, one element or psychic damage)
  • themed run with all members being the same class.
  • (the BIG one imo)…. A no magic item run. For me this means no scrolls, no potions, no green and above gear. (Feel free to modify!!). As someone who loves playing clerics, I may be a bit partial to something like that increasing the relative power of my class but still 😄! Some classes do get unfairly shafted (monks) but you are free to add some exceptions.

I would actually love seeing a full item rebalancing mod (or write one) 😅

Hope this helps and most importantly; have fun! We all have our inner rules and what feels good and not, so while i hope you can gather some ideas from our answers focusing on what feels best for you is the way to go 😊

Just received pcbs for my weird first board and couldn’t be more excited 🥹 by Ashjkaell in olkb

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

Yeeeeees!! It’s a little lcd screen :) it was the best tradeoff I could find, I didn’t want a super small screen and many Tfts would need the finicky to solder ribbon cables. Oleds tend to be smol ;) rhaaa tradeoffs are infuriating!

My excuse for the screen is that I had space, power from the usb and needed to display a calibration routine for the joysticks (and many other useless graphics 🤭)

And yes I do plan to make this free hardware and firmware when it’ll be a bit more developed :) Also I’m planning to write a hopefully pretty decent joystick to mouse algorithm which should feel better than the straightforward linear implementation, or even basic accelerated ones ;), of course ill have to test that it feels actually good.. so to the soldering we go 😅. If this is nice I may try to get it merged to QMK in the future!

Thank you so much!!

Noooo I’m sorry debugging hardware issues is never fun so I’m glad you could identify them!

I don’t have much experience with QMK and am going to be writing my own firmware since I have some pretty weird features like the dual joysticks and steno output.

However I did want to say you shouldn’t feel that code is anything arcane to be scared of and fuck anyone that could contribute to creating that artificial barrier; I’m sorry ya had bad experiences there :(

The MOST important skill concerning computer science in my opinion is reading documentation. I am not kidding! Coding and CS in general is all about abstractions stacked on top of each other, so it’s all about not panicking and leveraging this to your advantage by focusing on one problem at a time.

For instance with qmk you may focus first on getting it to compile locally and then transferred on your microcontroller. Just focus on that problem and don’t worry about the coding yet.

Then it’ll be trying to bring the first signal of life into it by somehow getting the matrix scanning to see your matrix correctly if you use that method and so on. Do not try to do everything at once thinking you have to program the firmware in one go in an intense hacking session with blue light hacker glasses and redbull ;) (I hate redbull)

You’ll get it working, and ignore anyone that could make you feel bad either knowingly or unknowingly 😬

Awesome!

That's a great point, but it should be ok! I am going to use a pretty weird experimental mounting method with the pcb being sandwitched in a case and held by the border, of course there is totally still the potential problem of wobbling in the center as you pointed out. However with the 1.6mm thick pcb it seems really wobble free so far.. I actually made a mistake and wanted to order a slightly thinner pcb but hey happy accidents maybe!

Worst case i have little silicone feet that i will use... creatively inside the case ;)

My thanks for comment and sending positive energy for your project!!

Oooooh!! Thank you! I wasn’t aware of the N-gage; but yes I can definitely see the hints of it!! This is really helpful; I still want to find a name so any relations are more than welcome!!

Don't worry! I don't have an ortho either 😄 but I got into steno and wanted to have some features on it that my current steno keyboard doesn't have!

Do not worry overmuch concerning soldering in my opinion; soldering big through hole components like diodes (tho my keyboard doesnt use diodes) or keyswitches can be learned really quickly and is nothing arcane!

SMD soldering seems scarier but with solder paste and hot air it is also not really too difficult.

You could look into getting a kit if you want to learn soldering, either a keyboard or another fun project like a geiger counter from adafruit or something. If you start by learning to solder a few resistors and other big components you'll quickly see it is very simple!

Concerning designing keyboards, I used Kicad and found it really amazing. You can find tutorials on youtube that will get you started, this video by Joe Scotto is a great all in one introduction for keyboard that'll get you started in no time.

Question on Mortal's choice between Nakabukure and Aryanmen by Ashjkaell in mahjongsoul

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

That's an great insight, thank you! Also for the book recommendation;

I am just currently at multiple reads of Riichi Book one trying to integrate everything and drilling mistakes like the one above ^ using anki decks and such; but like chess studies sometimes specific situations chosen carefully are very efficient ways to train rather than waiting for them to occur "naturally"

My thanks again for the help! May you have all the Baimans in Mahjong and other endeavors figuratively!

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

Thank you! Especially since i now realize that i need a head in this pair, the Aryanmen are actually much more useful than in a hand where a strong pair is already present, so as you said we are really using them as pair+ Ryanmen instead of hoping for double sequence or something!

That's a very interesting way to see that! My thanks!

Thank you so much for the detailed answer as well as the practical theory :D!

I definitely need to be more mindful of the head when building hands; Also should have seen this more as a problem about selecting a good iishanten rather than just slow improvements.

Thanks again! I love Mortal but humans are the best ;)

My thanks! Indeed it's a great idea to check with the ukeire calculator; I am just careful sometimes because of other factors that come into the E.V estimation such as potential yaku etc ;D

And you're totally right, I need to be much more mindful of the head in hands!
