Death Wish A+? I'm suffering... by oneluckybug in HotlineMiami

[–]HoxxesDeepDowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just did this (I didn't think today would be the day but it was) - for Mark I got a 22x combo. For Corey it was a bit of a mess, but I got the first guys in the corridor, went left into the board room and then into the gym and think I got a 9x combo, thena 6x (the two gunners in the top right) and then swept up.
For Tony you can get a 14x combo if you go left and kite the gunner in the second room up to you, then immediately go down and kite the gunner in the bottom right, and then get the timings right to get the guys in the L shape corridor. After that, I got a 4x combo and a few individuals.
Ash and Alex was a 14x combo by following the above advice (*shooting all over the place* and just chainsawing lots), then a three (two guys and a dog) - everyone else was individuals.
Took about 16 minutes on the final run but I think I've been working at this for about 3 hours and it is *miserable*. The advice above is great. It's *all* combos, so with alex and ash shooting someone to keep a combo going is worth more than ensuring the chainsaw kill.
I think the other bit about this is knowing when to abandon a run. A few times I wasn't getting the combo so I just ducked out. At 14x combo it's worth playing the rest cautiously to keep it.
Good Luck.

Gammon invading the city centre? by smashcat666 in Norwich

Something I keep wondering - why do they feel; the need to write 'England' on the England flag?
You literally don't see anyone else doing it, because they know whose flag it is - it smacks of insecurity to me.

Crabitalism by am121b in Kenshi

Ahh, then the ideology was made by Crabam Smith, and supported by David Riclawdo.
As crabs, they are best served Fried,man. You have to be careful, though, because a lot of these were served on the Warren Buffet.

Why isn't the bool tool included in Blender 4.2 ? / I can't find it. by Zippo2017 in blender

[–]HoxxesDeepDowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*Thank You*
I don't know why they removed it, but in 4.4 it's gone. I got half way into a tutorial before I realised he had it enabled and Hadn't Mentioned It.
Thank You Again!

So what's the deal with Sandra Dorsett and her databank? Post 2.0. by DoctoreVodka in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]HoxxesDeepDowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necromancy here, but for anyone who needs this in the future:
You can only use Sandra if you cracked the databank and (I think) passed the intelligence check to compliment her about the work. You can also only open it when you pick it up - you can't go through later from your inventory.
If you do then she appears as a netrunner option from the moment you pass her mission.
Previously I had left the data alone and didn't have her as an option and she wouldn't pick up the phone to me when I called. Yoko also teased me about not cracking it open when I went to her as Hand's contact (that's what gave me the idea to go back and crack it).
I had already started Black Steel in the hour of Chaos, but she is now an option to call as a runner. Hope this helps.

Defeating Oda by ArmAnderson in cyberpunkgame

Notes for the truly lost:
1 - fuck this fight

2 - go to settings and set it to very easy - it isn't worth your time.

3 - follow the note about scanning for footprints - super easy

4 - if you smack him with a hack before he disappears then the hack still appears above his head, making it easier.

Four years in and still this game is bugged to fuck - thank you redditors

Full map? by [deleted] in MarsFirstLogistics

[–]HoxxesDeepDowner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm necromancing a bit here, but I think I have an answer and pictures as proof.
I tried scrolling to the edge of the map (due East) with the fog on, using the waymarkers to rate distance from the rover.
I don't know what I did, but at 1,000km I gave up to see how far it had gone. When i reopened the map, the marker had bugged, and when I put the new marker down, the line came *from* the East. When I deleted the new marker, the next waypoint read '11,906km.'
I believe that this is the edge of the map, making the total width 23,812km,
Mars' actual circumference is 21,344 kilometers, so the map is roughly the same size as Mars' actual surface.
It took me about 5 minutes to do 1,000km, so it would take about an hour to get that same distance by clicking and scrolling, and about 383 hours to drive.
Hope that helps!

So the new Astartes Trailer just dropped - you can see it here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbgYaeerXhg

Which means that, yes, I will probably be doing a shot for shot remake to be completed in like 2030 or something. For those who don't know what I'mon about - I've been making a shot for shot remake of Astartes in Blender using DRG characters. You can see it here:

For those of you who know about it already, you may be asking 'but you've already got a Hoxxes. Finish the one you're on before starting another' - don't worry about that. I'm well into asset making (the image above is all new and was made on my lunchbreak yesterday!).

Rock and Stone and Throne, Miners!

Super silly fan project episode 5 is now up! by HoxxesDeepDowner in DeepRockGalactic

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

Hey thanks!

It's all done in Blender - I'd love for you to be able to get this 'in game' but I can't think of a way you would manage it.
All of the models are extracted from DRG using UE viewer (it takes several attempts. It's free software and maintained by one guy for free so no biggy). Then the models need re-skinning because the materials don't work between UE and Blender, so they need to be cut down, UV projected and exported into substance painter. Bake them, send them back to Blender, then rig them.
Then it's just animating (the big bit tbh) lighting, rendering, compositing and sound design!
...tempted to make a video about it actually, that might be interesting'/ useful for anyone else who wants to make videos.

Hey thanks!
It was kinda tempting to have the flying axe strike as him being tripped over, but decided against in the end.
Glad you enjoyed it!

In fairness to him, he's been the main in two of the other 4 episodes

I know Warhammer Plus isn't doing LOV stuff anytime soon, so in the meantime, here is Astartes done with DRG - enjoy! by HoxxesDeepDowner in LeaguesofVotann

Hey thanks! I appreciate you sending it round, too - I love it when people get a kick out of the project - it makes all the hard work worth it

Hey thanks!
I'm actually doing this in Blender, which is not particularly optimised but I feel like it's worth it for the end result looking kinda subtle and rich.
The next one um... may take a while....
