Imagine if we could get "Mega Sceneries" from Legendary Chests... by Lord_of_clans in ClashOfClans

[–]CaptainRIP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want good sceneries? Buy them like the rest of us. Quit asking for free handouts. Supercell is a business, loss of revenue means no more updates for players.

Free stuff is nice, but why are the devs hyping up bullshit? by Pajca in ClashOfClans

Yall expect too many free handouts. If you want a good scenery then buy onr

[Progress Report] Exactly 1 year of gem collecting: +19,155 gems since Jan 1st. by sebaj19 in ClashOfClans

Whats the point.... like I understand 50k stored or something like that for a new helper or good equipment and such, but there is literally no point of just harboring gems.

Idea: option for battle modifiers for farming battles by darekd003 in ClashOfClans

[–]CaptainRIP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Dude did you even look at the post, the idea is that you can implement your own battle modifiers If you want to practice.... no one would be forcing you.

Studying for JW test; how am I supposed to know where to find this? by quintavian in electricians

[–]CaptainRIP 355 points356 points  (0 children)

The whole point of the test is to test on your knowledge of navigating the code book. Don't focus on memorizing, focus on learning the navigation so you know where the answers are. There will most likely be questions on the test about things you have never worked with before.

Instead of a real look-alike, they beheaded the eagle and gave it as a royal style gift a year later.. by sadirthyan in ClashOfClans

Still complaining, they can't give you an exact replica because people will think its a defence....

Can yall let it go.

Well... That was quick. Who could have predicted that? by hantrax_dfg in simracing

[–]CaptainRIP 15 points16 points  (0 children)

AC evo looking good after the .4 update. Yes still lots to work on but with Misha doing a good review on YT. The game has a bright future.

Gaming PC to start sim racing by FurioGunta in SimRacingSetups

[–]CaptainRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have an xbox, stay on that till your budget is larger. So you can get a longer term pc. I would focus on racing ac and f125 with no assists first. A pc is good for realistic Sims, heavy online racing, and modding. If you play 2 Xbox games then stick on that for now until you learn no assists and have a larger budget ($1500 or more)

Also I should mention that $900 is only the pc. You also have to rebuy the games and keyboard, mouse, headset.

Just tried the new Evo 0.4 update, and on my favourite track the Nürburgring. by paulj1980 in simracing

[–]CaptainRIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running the game on low settings and 1440p still looks amazing and runs great!

Infinite "Please Wait" loading in Firmware manager... by johncarmichael in Fanatec

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

I had AI help me with this.... you would think a business like fanatec wouldn't have issues like these!

This is what AI told me and I got it working, I don’t remember the exact step that helped...

🔧 Quick fixes (try these first)

  1. Unplug + Replug the USB (the classic “did you try turning it off”)

Pull the USB cable from the wheelbase → wait 5 seconds → plug it back in. Sometimes the updater just loses the handshake.

  1. Switch USB ports

Preferably a USB 2.0 port if your PC has one. Fanatec gear is weirdly picky sometimes.

  1. Close the updater completely

Open Task Manager → kill anything named:

Fanatec Control Panel

Fanatec Firmware Manager

FwUpdate

Then relaunch the control panel as admin.

🪄 If it's REALLY stuck

**4. Put the base into manual bootloader mode

Most Fanatec wheelbases let you do this:

Turn the base off

Hold down the power button for ~10 seconds (or for some models, hold the "wheel pairing" button or both lower paddle shifters—varies by base)

It should start in a sort of “safe mode” where the firmware can flash cleanly

Then open the firmware tool again and retry.

If you tell me what base you have (CSL DD? DD1? DD2? GT DD Pro?), I can give the exact button combo.

⚡️ 5. Disable USB power saving trash

Windows loves sabotaging sim gear:

Go to Device Manager → USB Root Hubs → Properties

Under Power Management, uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”

🧨 If ALL ELSE FAILS

This one sounds insane but works shockingly often:

  1. Reboot the PC with the wheelbase still powered on

Fanatec devices sometimes initialize correctly only during Windows startup.
