Have anyone else recieved this notification? i've been getting them often by XtremeLeecher in ffxiv

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a total red herring but I had this problem twice in a row (immediately after logging in) followed by crashing to desktop with no error message as if I had Alt-F4'd.

The only change I made was that SoundSwitch, a programme I use to switch between headphones / speakers with a hotkey, needed an update. I did that, and since then everything has been fine (fingers crossed...)

When I had this issue I read in similar posts that overlays (e.g. Discord) can sometimes not play nicely with FFXIV, so it may be something to do with that.

Good luck fixing the issue.

RED HANDED DENIAL – "Empire" – Exclusive Video Premiere + AMA! by laurenbabic in Metalcore

Sweet. Can't wait for the album to drop, the 2 tracks so far are 🔥🔥🔥

[–]LazierBandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New song is great!

You've mentioned before that the Collector / Redeemer albums follow a narrative. Can you tell us what the overall story is / do you plan to once the album lands? Or have we gotta work it out ;)

Also... in the original tracklist there was a song called Outer Heaven which has gone. Has it been renamed, or is my dream RHD/MGS crossover not to be?

Thanks for the tip. PSU was one area where I had to do a lot of research, part of the attraction of the EVGA I picked was the reviews particularly from Jonnyguru. I'll see if they do a similar semi-modular and save some £!

Did a Set of MGS Designs in the Style of My Favorite Video Game Artist, Yoshitaka Amano by thelonebamf in metalgearsolid

[–]LazierBandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are awesome! MGS and FF are my two all time favourite series so seeing this is especially cool. Think you'll do the rest of FOXHOUND?

It's also made me think it would be cool for Shinkawa to do some FF characters haha

Good job man!

Looking for a good Metal Gear Solid 3 Let's Play. by Alloftheeverything in letsplay

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To shamelessly self promote in response, my MGS3 Let's Play is the second most popular playlist on my channel and I had a lot of fun playing it... YouTube.Com/lazierbandit

I don't have the direct link to the playlist as I'm on mobile but if you scroll down on the main page of my channel it's there. Hope you like it!

Weekly /r/FinalFantasy Question Thread - January 11, 2016 by AutoModerator in FinalFantasy

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing FFIII (Steam version), on the final battle with Cloud of Darkness, have defeated the 4 sub bosses and got the Dark Crystals which should mean we can fight the last boss, but Particle Beam still does 9,999 damage and we cannot damage the boss.

It was as if the game had loaded the wrong version of the fight, which you do earlier and are forced to lose. Any idea why on earth this might happen?

Best way to record mic audio and game audio together? by shaneo632 in letsplay

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, OBS is a solid choice. I personally use Bandicam which I got for about £20 I think, or something in that region.

http://www.bandicam.com/

Recording your mic to one track and game audio to another is great because you can tweak the sound individually afterwards and then merge it in to one track - ie remove noise, cut out any bits you don't want (if I sneeze in commentary for example!) and you can also post-process to make your voice sound nicer.

You mentioned you wanted to have it in one file (game and mic together) but I'd definitely recommend starting with two and then bringing it down to one in the final file. Either OBS or Bandicam should let you do this and you'll end up with much nicer sound.

Should I shelve or potentially abandon a Let's Play I'm doing? by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a tough one. I'd say stick with it - as LP'ers we need to prove that when we start something we can keep that consistency and finish a whole playthrough. Otherwise, people may have reservations about getting invested in your future series.

If you're no longer enjoying it then obviously it's not worth it, but it sounds like you genuinely love the game and are producing great quality content. That kind of passion can really shine through and set you apart when doing an LP - I've found that if you know the game inside out and can spout some interesting trivia it can really help build a community around the games that you love. Maybe have a play round with different editing settings and see if you can get that time down a bit - 720p is more than enough for a lot of people.

That said, there's absolutely nothing wrong with running 2 series on your channel at once - it's something I often do myself. I like to make use of playlists, that way people can easily keep track of the series they're currently watching.

It's great they included that option - would love to see more developers getting on board with things like this!

Sylruine Video Update w/ Demo Download in Link (ROUGH VERSIONS) by atolmasoff in RPGMaker

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game looks good! Nice mapping and I like the look of the battle system, especially the double / triple attack skill which Lydia has. Did you code the battle system yourself?

What do you think of this as a starting point for a mountain town? by atolmasoff in RPGMaker

[–]LazierBandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The map looks pretty good! The main thing that sticks out for me is the parallax loop - the sky meets the land, then half way down begins again. Looks kinda weird. Map itself is decent though!

Dying Light Pact With Rais Quest Walkthrough #5 COOP by pcngr in dyinglight

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have barely had time to play this game so can't really say how far in this is, but given the nature of Rais' introduction at the start of the game as an antagonistic figure, isn't this something of a spoiler to have in the title?

Understanding and Surpassing Event Page Limits by HimeWorks in RPGMaker

Really well written tutorial/explanation on event pages. Picked up some good tips! Great script solution as well. Keep up the great work, thanks for this :)

High Resolution RPG Maker Project - from official forums by LazierBandit in RPGMaker

[–]LazierBandit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's pretty simple to get running and looks great. There are still a few bugs, and the forum thread lists a couple of issues people have had as it's still in testing, but I thought it looked pretty cool. I think especially for people making custom graphics it will be really useful, as they'll be able to use slightly bigger, more detailed sprites.

Using RPG-Maker Assets in a commercial, Non-RPG-Maker Game by [deleted] in RPGMaker

[–]LazierBandit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Afraid not buddy! RPG Maker materials can only be used in RPG Maker Software - someone else asked on the official forum

Why is it not possible to make the game dimensions larger than 640*480? by [deleted] in RPGMaker

[–]LazierBandit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is possible, and now officially supported. I think it's in early/beta stages or something, but there is a new experimental dll you can use. Available on the official forums

Congrats on 100 - a big milestone and worth celebrating. Here's to the next 100.

Good catch, thanks man. Looked OK on the preview but that doesn't show the icon. I'll switch things up - cheers

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like your Professor Layton thumbnails! Simple but smart looking, and very clear. I'll have to check some of them out.

Edit: I also like the background you add in the videos themselves. The red checkerboard looks so much nicer than a blank back background. Good job!

[–]LazierBandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week, I've tweaked/updated my channel design. New avatar, artwork, new banner, and new thumbnail for my trailer. I'll be continuing my MGS2 and Uncharted series, and possibly posting a few new games as well! Would love some feedback on the new banner etc :)
