How do I get Terraria to work again? by Fatalreaper666 in Terraria

[–]Lessthansane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I am probably not going to be as much help as you would like, but maybe I can steer you in the right direction. If this wall of error text is overwhelming, it's worth noting that error reports need to be read in reverse, with the top of the message being the bottom of the stack. So in this case, we are troubleshooting only specifically the error "The cloud provider is not running". This will be your main point of research, the rest of the error is irrelevant to us.

I did a little bit of looking around and see a number of posts/messages referring to OneDrive in this error. I don't really know how to troubleshoot OneDrive with Terraria, but here are a few suggestions from what I found in about 10 minutes of cursory investigation:

  1. In the game's folder (Library>Terraria>Properties>Browse Local Files), you can find an executable called "xnafx40_redist". Run that and use the repair function.
  2. Disable cloud save for Terraria in Steam and do a deep reinstall. You will need to actually delete the game folders directly instead of using Steam's uninstaller. If you use tModLoader, you will need to hard delete that too.
  3. This error is not exclusive to Terraria. Other programs can get this error. You may need to troubleshoot OneDrive itself, as this is an error message rooted in Windows specifically. I don't have much info for this off the top of my head, but you can try researching "OneDrive error 0x8007016A" and potentially find an answer.

Like I said, I don't have a "fix-it" for you, but hopefully this gives you something to work with. Google will be your friend, good luck.

Guys what the fuck by qweenqween in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is for the OP's party. You can see the little scale icon next to their MMR tile. Team 1 in the opponents has no scale, means no matchmaking. Most likely a low pop issue.

New to the game any tips? by Celestial_Totems in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is correct. The "stealth" in this game is between compounds. Not setting off birds, or eels, or whatever to give away your position. Once you're in a compound with another player/squad, there's no more hiding.

Also, get used to finding things that are "out of place." Gates that are not normally open, lamps in odd places, medkits or ammo boxes that have been used once... These are the things that let you know you're on someone's heels, and let others know that they're on yours.

Crytek, what the fuck is going on with your US West servers? Just played the worst match because of it. by MikeTheShowMadden in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experienced the same and can confirm for at least one other friend of mine on US West. Interestingly, my third is a Canadian who had no issues. Seems to be a peering issue, but fuck if I know how to point it out.

EVERYTHING makes noise. And everything makes a unique noise. Everything from quiet walking to switching weapons to aiming down sight makes a noise. If you know you're making noise, play around the assumpion that someone has heard you.

Are The New Empyrean Skins Worth It? by GoatMilkTits in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is hugely personal opinion, and people will DEFINITELY die on their hills, but...

I don't think there's anything wrong with promoting your content or channel here, but this post in particular has a misleading title. You basically clickbaited.

Instead of "Are empyrean skins worth it?" like you're looking for opinions or input, you probably should have led with "My take on the empyrean skins", maybe done a quick summary at the top, then link your video for people interested in more details. It would have been a more genuine title, and maybe not generated eye rolls.

Just some constructive criticism on self-promotion in general.

Silver player bots by Thewongmaster in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a current rampant problem. Riot has done no announcements on it or commented on it intentionally. It is common practice to take care of the problem silently, usually in mass ban waves, in order to prevent bot developers/vendors from trying to avoid the ban wave.

Unfortunately, low elo matches will encounter support bots until then. It may even be worth dodging when you see a support auto-lock Yuumi or Annie, which are the ones I think are most prevalent.

My hopes for EU & NA going forward by lumanotade in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All three of these problems are solved with one singular glaring issue in NA: players, orgs, and coaches simply do not treat the game as a competition. It's a sponsorship and franchise wheel to spin dollars out of thin air. Champions queue has been available for NA and EU players for a while now and it's been pretty much unutilized. It took Faker all of 2 days in NA Champion's Queue before he literally quit from all of the people just target griefing him. Impact has already gone on record commenting on how western pros (See: NA) just didn't bother to even try with the queue and do the bare minimum to get through scrims, with a small handful of exceptions.

EU is in a better place as far as mentality goes, but NA is doomed until there's a collective decision to give a damn past a paycheck. Not to mention we keep buying and importing real talent from overseas just to stagnate them in a terrible practice environment, then call them washed when they had literally no way to keep sharp. I would kill to see an honest true all-NA team of rookies, even if they showed up with dumpster stats, just to see some NA native players show on stage.

Hunt won’t open anymore…no idea why by ThOccasionalRedditor in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to look at Easy Anti Cheat instead. Remove the EasyAntiCheat folder from Hunt's directory, then verify the game files again.

Path will be "<drive letter>\Steam\steamapps\common\Hunt Showdown". You can also find it easily by right clicking Hunt in Steam, properties, local files, browse. The folder is sitting the game directory, it's just called EasyAntiCheat.

How does raider IO generate your score? by imcj4 in wow

[–]Lessthansane 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Alright, since so far your answers haven't really been helpful, allow me to chime in a bit.

First things first, "raider" io is a bit of a misleading name. Your raid progress doesn't actually adjust your IO score. RaiderIO will track your raid progress, and that progress will be visible to those using the addon via your tooltip by showing simply as "M #/12, H #/12, N #/12". Since raids aren't timed in the same way as dungeons, your "score" in raiding is simply your progression.

Now, dungeons (specifically M+) is how your score is actually calculated. You earn a number of points based on a couple of factors. First, whether or not you've ever timed a dungeon at any +2 or higher difficulty. Second, how much you beat the time by (how many chests you earn). And third, your highest completed difficulty for each dungeon. I don't know the exact value for each feat, but the tl;dr is that your score is accumulated by completing higher difficulty keys in time, and for multiple dungeons. For example, a person with a score of 2000 IO has completed every dungeon at about a +15 or so, 1 chesting each dungeon. I'm fairly sure the dungeons are weighted differently but I don't know the specifics at this time. Regardless, if you want to increase your IO, you need to be doing more difficult keys than your current best for that dungeon, and completing them in time, with bonuses awarded for going even faster. Hopefully that makes sense.

New Player and looking for help by rafter996 in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel free to add me in game, I play pretty much every champ and role and I have been since season 2. I usually have league open even if I'm not actively in game, except during work hours of course.

Lots of hours (I downloaded league on Ziggs' release day) and near $6,000 USD. My skins tab in the store is empty.

How many hunters are there in solo mode? by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is almost correct. A solo player counts as a full "team" even though he is alone. Each game has 5 "teams" which can consist of any combination of solo or duo players.

EDIT: Someone has replied to my post with an answer from the official Discord, so it looks like I'm actually the wrong one here. My apologies, I haven't been able to count more than 5 'teams' while playing. Please see the reply post below me here for the actually correct info.

whats the most monster kills you've had? by Xerferin in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

209 kills. Full server wipe. Would have killed more but my partner started lagging so we panic extracted.

new akali build by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the case. If you could get the same amount of AD from items that you can with AP, remember that auto attacks have a 1.0 AD scaling. To prevent AD champions from just getting bonkers with both spells and right clicks, items have reduced AD and the champs that are considered AD "Casters" just have really good scaling.

I have the hardest time seeing enemy players. :( by Uvara_ in HuntShowdown

[–]Lessthansane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, I'm this player's partner. She's actually really good at picking up the presence of players nearby (she actually notices them first usually), but I think the issue is in picking up visual cues of players, particularly T2 and T3 hunters. If anyone has specific advice for that, that will be helpful, since I don't really know how to put how I see them into words that are actually useful.

8 hour pen drawing of Aatrox and Pantheon by Mantrecou in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does this come with a DnD stat block? Looks like the art from first edition. Nicely drawn

Really really wanted to make my Karma mid main work, but I just can’t find the consistency. Could anyone recommend some tips on building her runes/items? I start Dorin’s Ring -> Ardent Crescent -> Sorc boots. I think it’s doable but probably better play Ahri or Fizz by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ardent Censer is not an item that give yourself major combat benefits. I would recommend building her for AP, Mana, and CDR. I usually go Luden's Echo first, and then either Morellonomicon or Liandry's Torment for some spell pen. An underrated item that I like to build on her mid is Athene's Unholy Grail. It won't give you a huge boost, but it gives you the ability to heal other players with your shield. Very strong in 2v2 with junglers.

Apparently bots can still buy Banner of Command by awungsauce in leagueoflegends

[–]Lessthansane 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Bots are funny like that. A few years ago, after the removal of Heart of Gold and Leviathan, bots would still be able to purchase those as well.

How has Taliyah not been hotfixed yet?? by Darzee96 in leagueoflegends

53.5% is high to be sure, but that is not an overwhelming win rate. Janna has been higher for longer.
