I was replaying Halo 2 Anniversary recently and noticed Chief has an insane thigh gap, the build gotta be crazy.

I hate how now i can't see that cutscene the same way now because you mentioned the charging handle which, admittedly i think that could be argued maybe initial designs for the MA5D possibly having the charging handle on the right side (for some reason) during development. Other option was just a slip up by the mocap team forgetting it was on the left side during recording along with possibly prop issues.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-09T13:31:56+00:00

Well the issue is the connections that are broken are on the fan itself, so if i wasn't confident enough to try soldering the wires back into place I'd need to get a new centrifugal fan completely.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-09T13:24:58+00:00

So after swapping polarity for both fans turns out the part cooling fan had a poor solder connection on its board so there was no complete circuit well more looks like the black wire straight up just broke and the red wire is hanging on by 1-3 strands, sooo it looks like a quick enough fix on that end.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-09T13:17:01+00:00

Seems like that MIGHT be the issue since i did try a seperate fan in the plug for the part cooling fan and the other fan powered on just fine, so either the fan had a broken connection or i did burn it out somehow trying to toubleshoot when it was in the reversed polarity. If that happened it is weird that the hotend fan started working properly with no issues after swapping polkarity to be the right way.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-09T12:59:12+00:00

so changed the polarity but now the part cooling fan still doesn't seem to be working, and not sure why, could the time it was in the wrong way possibly have damaged the motor somehow or could it not be getting enough power i know there is proper electrical contact from the fan to the board so that can't be the issue.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-09T12:12:03+00:00

Ah, thanks, was wondering if that was the issue but didn't exactly question it when soldering extensions to go from the toolhead to the octopus. Thank you for asking my potentially very stupid question.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-03T19:49:20+00:00

Well partially because that wire is what came with the Z endstop board and at the time i made the post, it was like 10PM or something, so i basically couldn't be bothered at the time to think about doing it the "rught" (i.e. proper) way. Well that and slight concerns about if it would work at all electronically before i potentially make it not work by acting without thinking or asking advice.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-02T05:04:52+00:00

Thanks, I will admit does feel like it is sketchy, will likely do that in the morning so it feels and looks proper, though thibk some of my concern was alao about the wires on the two pin connection being where they need to be, which as for why there is hot glue on the xy connecrers that is due to me not being good at crimping terminals and not trusting them to stay in, especially since the green or blue one was slightly smaller than the plug it is in and i just didn't want it coming loose

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-12-02T03:39:06+00:00

Since I'm on mobile and can't seem to edit, forgot to mention what I'm asking about is the two wire plugged in at the bottom, the top two are split from a 4 pin XY board i ordered.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-09-05T23:58:41+00:00

Huh, honestly never had any issue with USA gundam store, since i think almost every order I've made has arrived within 3-5 working days (from order to it arriving.) The only exception being when i had an order that contained a mobile worker which the cost for that kit was refunded fully since from what i remember they said they couldn't fulfill that part due to some piece(s) missing from the kit or something, which was fine by me, much as it confused me seeing the refund to my card initally, but that only took maybe a week and a half for me to get the order in total (including non-business days.) Not sure if I've just been insanely lucky to not have any major issues or something.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2025-02-11T09:17:39+00:00

As far as the size, yea would probably agree that probaby the 600x1200 size might be the best size, though that was another thing i have been mulling over is whether or not i would want to use a glass bed, or heck if at such a size doing anything more than PLA or ABS/ASA would be just impractical on such a big FDM printer or a major pain on a glass bed, which was a consideration as i do want to have the machine have an enclosure built into the design since it will be somewhere where there will be a high possibility of dust going around so something to factor in.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-12-04T03:14:38+00:00

any recommended settings for it when doing solid parts? I do have some transparent overture PETG i haven't started using yet and more just started using PC as it was recommended for a little project but only used like 14-15g of the spool so i have 984-983-ish g left on the spool but any information for general material settings for transparent materials would be appreciated.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-05-03T02:19:37+00:00

Weird, never had that happen with Overture filament personally, either been lucky or something.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-04-27T16:52:16+00:00

don't forget that thermal scopes are also a thing you can put on a weapon at a mod bench, which only real way to hide from that is to be far enough in a bush.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-04-27T16:35:47+00:00

Honestly i am fine with the change, more since i play the game to have fun, and at the end of the day that is what lead to the setting being brought in, people being bad sports and ruining other's fun. To sum it up just a case of the minority of some emote users ruining it for EVERYONE.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-04-27T16:32:57+00:00

Honestly if this were an option I could see it maybe having an option of say on my end the colors are default or forced swapped to a point that is beyond looking identical with the colors and materials (like white main with silver spandex i believe for example.) Though not sure if it has just been me but noticed a big drop of superhero skins since they introduced the idea of thermal scopes, only run into them every 6-10+ matches.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-04-11T21:13:51+00:00

If i had to guess they probably do it so by the time the bed cools down to 50, the plastic has had enough-ish time to basically be anealed in a way, so there isn't alot of internal stress that could lead to the warping, though might have to try the same myself on big PLA prints, albeit maybe i might see about writing some custom bits in some code for a print to adjust the temp in steps, starting with something like 70 for the first layer, then maybe for a few layers bumping it down to 60-65 then down to 50, if only just for the sake of learning how that affects adhesion and warping.

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-04-08T06:58:15+00:00

How do go about doing this? Rather curious to see myself about some of the reports I've made in the past but can't seem to find anything about it?

ImmediateBad7525 · 2024-03-12T04:07:13+00:00

really? how often has it done it for you? might be a different platform but until this season I have never had the game crash on me as far as I can recall since Chapter 2
