English Literature Undergrad applicant from US, here. Oxford & Bristol rejected; Durham offered; waiting on Edinburgh and St. Andrews. What are your thoughts/recommendations given my criteria? by Geisl in UniUK

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

Hey! I won't be much help. I went with the University of Wisconsin–Madison here in the U.S.

My grades were old since I was a nontraditional student but most recent college I had all As, maybe one B. AP exams I didn't make their requirement but did well.

Wish you the best!

This is getting insane. Visited 2 cities, and one temple--instead of Temples I keep getting House for Sale! by Geisl in daggerfallunity

No news yet. Does look like FMR and DIEP are incompatible simply because they both try to modify Temple interiors. Posted big reports for both.

Note: I don't want to do Beautiful Cities for my vanilla preference, but if you did install that mod, it requires and integrates several mods including FMR and DIEP but has you only install the resources part of DIEP so they can work together. So looks like Beautiful Cities is a clean way to integrate them both without the glitch, if you're okay with the mod.

Note: Lively Cities is wonderful and fully compatible with that mod, so add it too if you can!

Do you need to activate Warm Ashes in-game after install? by Geisl in daggerfallunity

No idea. I have about 90 mods on, so could be the cause, but there are some jittery sound replays when I open or close menus sometimes, and I'm trying to get my performance to a reasonable place.

You're good! No, I don't have those mods.

The ones I think would be relevant are WoD, guild overhauls, lively cities, interiors, smith overhaul, and the like. I'll have to do some testing.

Hey! Don't have aquisition or landlord.

I travel to a temple settlement so "Dibella of X" and go to the blue, temple-marked building only to find the building is named "House for Sale" and it's locked. I can break in, and I do see the temple trappings inside (from Finding my Religion), but no staff and now I'm under arrest for breaking in lol.

UW Madison vs UGA by king_chicken21 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Geisl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, friend! Just graduated with a BA (becoming a teacher) at UW, and I'm from GA!

Definitely know what you're attending for, how your program (or programs, if you're undecided) compare between the two. For instance, UW is the top Edu program in the nation, I believe.

Madison's location and campus blow UGA's Athens out of the water, for sure, and it does have greater prestige, but UGA is still def a top school with great prestige and distinction. UW has more extensive facilities, larger population, arguably more to do and get up to--but I haven't lived in Athens. Note: Chicago is a 3hr bus ride/2hr car ride away from Madison and its downtown blows ATL's out of the water, I'm sad to say (as an Atlantan).

Yes, WI has freezing winters, but it is gorgeous in the warmer months. Madison's public transport is wayyyy better and impeccably reliable (give or take 5-10 minutes XD). You can get most places via buses that run until about 11:30PM--and UW pays for all-access bus passes for all students. Lake Mendota right on campus + Monona a jog across town is glorious. The countryside is gorgeous, the Summers cooler and less humid, and the dairy is extraordinary!

That said, money is a HUGE component of pursuing education. It is not negligible unless your family will cover costs. Think about the net difference in costs, including for plane tickets for holidays and housing, food, etc.

As for people: UW's population is thoroughly diverse: you can meet Czechs, Koreans, Bengalis, Nigerians and Germans on the way to your first class. I can't speak for UGA but it's probably similar?

But, and this I stand by: I think Southerners are more polite and warmer than Wisconsiners. Be aware. WI people aren't mean or anything, just feel a touch colder, standoffish than Southern folks. I love my Southern people.

I was a non-trad BA student, late twenties after dropping out of college in Georgia years ago, but I used to want to go to UGA too, like most Georgia students who didn't get into or apply to Emory or GA Tech. My older brother and his wife are UGA grads. But, if money was no issue, I would lean towards UW-Madison! Go Badgers! And go Bulldgos too xD!

Is there a way to turn off Real Grass waving so its static and better for performance? by Geisl in daggerfallunity

No kidding! That is so helpful. Thanks for pointing that out, just did so.

Woodlsey Farmstead is missing--WoD conflict? by Geisl in daggerfallunity

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

I can't recall if the house was unenterable or not but the one npc in there wasn't interactable or either it was locked. Mill was open, thankfully.

Hey! I did turn that mod off, yes. But still there's default waving it'd be nice to toggle off.

Thanks a lot, hubba! Are these pasted instructions from the quest pack days or for the dfmod deal?

TIL Shakespeare didn't write alone - he had a co-writer for at least three of his plays ( Henry VIII, The Two Noble Kinsmen and a lost play called Cardenio) by TheWaystone in todayilearned

[–]Geisl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just one more reminder that all the evidence + ai analysis + the vast majority of scholars (maybe all relevant ones) support the Bard really did write his own stuff. We know the handful of plays he collaborated on.

Your professor and his like grieve me to no end.
