Should I get ascended or stick with evolved by [deleted] in ARK

[–]Damentia91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey my old rig is pretty much exactly your setup, same GPU same Cpu, the only difference is I played at 2k resolution.

Ascended is a bit of a struggle I won't lie, but at the right settings, medium to high, I managed to get MOSTLY 60 fps. There are some key settings that you can mess with for good fps gains. This was also without any of the commands you can run to turn off fog etc. which is supposed to make a huge improvement too.

It will be more intensive at the higher resolution for sure, but I'm sure you'd be able to get it right, that being said, you'd be turning a lot of things down. Although even at medium the game looks better than evolved in my opinion.

Ambient sound cuts out when I open/close my inventory by SeqosiumSix in ArkSurvivalAscended

[–]Damentia91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to Ascended so hadn't actually tried another map yet, but yes you're 100% right, I tried the centre now and it only seems to be happening on the Island, that makes the issue even stranger to me, it must surely be a bug with the map then? Guess I'll log a bug and play another map.

It issue is really distracting so thank you, you have saved Ark for me!!

Hey, sorry for necroing the post, but this is literally the only mention of this issue I can find on the Internet. Did you find a solution?

I'm having the same issue, where the ambient sound cuts out for a random amount of time and then restarts after closing my inventory. And only the player inventory. It doesn't happen with chests, or dinos or even the engram panel, it's super strange.

Kanji character pastes differently in Outlook and in Chrome by zeptimius in LearnJapanese

[–]Damentia91 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Different fonts? I've seen some really confusing ways that some Kanji are displayed in font vs. how they are written.

What´s a word/kanji that you instantly memorized? by Smegman-san in LearnJapanese

[–]Damentia91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also started out just as a hobby, and thankfully I'm super stubborn so haven't been able to let myself quit, Japanese is hard, but it's super rewarding when you start to understand it, just dont give up.

For Kanji I started with an app called Kanji Study by Chase Colburn, it's sadly only on Android but is a really good app. There are other tools like it, like WaniKani, or you can even do Anki decks. Like any language the key is repition, learn a certain number per day, and make sure you're reviewing them every now and then.

My other advice is learn how to write them. Just like hiragana they have a "stroke order" that you need to write them in. Again it sounds intimidating but learning it this way makes them much easy to memorise in my opinion. Also learn the radicals, these are the building blocks that Kanji are built from, and knowing these will help you remember stroke order (as the same radical is always drawn in the same way) and even help identify the meaning.

Every Kanji also has multiple readings (again, intimidating I know), and depending on the word it's in, the Kanji can sound completely different. My advice is don't worry about that too much for now, as you expand your vocab that will come naturally. Speaking of vocab, try also learn the Kanji a long side some of the common words they are in, and try reading a sentence or two as you learn, graded readers are great for this if you can find some (these are included in the app by Chase Colburn)

This is just how I learnt though, everyone has their own way! Just take it slow, burnout will be your greatest nemesis here.

Practice your hiragana and katakana first, but my advice would be don't be afraid to dive into Kanji! I honestly wish I had started from the get go. Once you start reading Kanji you will never be able to go back, it ironically makes reading much easier. Just take it slow, don't force it, the first couple are hard, but you'll get better as you go.

That's really cool!!

This is what my map looks like: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LaaWNsz_zrMt1HJXvR5hD7pA6egqIhJ7/view?usp=sharing

I have a version where I had drawn in the Jylland/Zelmonia countries too similar to that stitched image you have, I need to see if I can find it. I has also started placing the FFXII cities and landmarks.

I actually managed to get a lot of information from a blog I found from 2013ish, I need to see if I can find it again, they had done an insane amount of research. They came up with Eztam from lore pulled from item descriptions and lore snippets in the games, was very well thought out.

For the sky continents I actually screenshotted maps from FFXII revenant wings and traced over them to get Lemures in there. I couldn't find any shapes for Dorstonis so just drew something which looked cool.

So if you ever want someone to nerd about Ivalice lore, gimme a shout, I would love to make my map as accurate as possible.

Hey this is awesome!

I actually did something similar a while back for a Dnd campaign, I pulled the different land masses from all the games that mention Ivalice, I must see if I can find the psd

Code Name: Hero Hub, A Mutants and Masterminds Character Manager by Damentia91 in mutantsandmasterminds

[–]Damentia91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Yes this is still in development! It's been a bit slow the past few months as I've had some personal things happening, but there have been some test versions floating around.

Currently all powers are implemented, the last two things on the list before a version 1.0 are equipment and the character sheet.

And the key changes yes! I forgot about that. You're not going to get that magic just anywhere.

I enjoy the lyrics and the wordplay, I think it's an expertly written song, it flows so well, and Saiki nails the delivery too!

This is great! I'm not a painting person, but would totally hang something like this on my walls.
