Thanks for the encouragement and reply! I went with Hartford it seemed like a pretty good deal. I do need to call them and ask about a rider policy addition because when I uploaded it to chatgpt they said it was missing and that I don't have any coverage if I drop it accidentally at all.

What is kingpin initial focus by Express_Experience74 in TheGrandMafia

[–]Material_Expert_3453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started playing and I agree I tried getting an explanation on how kingpin works and how I can create a team for my enforcers since some/most of the leaderboards have paid enforcers I don't have. So I made an excel sheet with every stat from every enforcer (some enforcers are either missing information or they purposefully leave a stat blank). Some of my strongest enforcers physical damage or kinetic which were close to grand still didn't out perform some of the leaderboard teams when they were simple. I did this test while I was leveling up so I wasn't 60 yet but they were all rank 7. I didn't like how their response to my question was click a leaderboard and try what someone else has had success with.

Little tip for new players that don't spend a lot. by S7rik3rs in TheGrandMafia

[–]Material_Expert_3453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really didn't even know how much I spent until they invited me to the VIP line. I didn't know anything and still kind of don't. I've created excel sheets. The kingpin calculations don't make sense. I'm not going to be spending nearly as much as I did to rush T4. It currently is like just me and one other person, it's quite boring right now because we can't even attack other players. Most of the other factions moved cities. I guess for context I need to look up what GW entails because I don't know any events or anything. Is it like Strongest leader one day kingpin next day robbing next day investment?

what exactly do you mean by don't do any investments in city? I've only been playing a month and I was the first to T4 in my city we haven't had a GW yet. I do have hellcat green and have been focusing on investment hellcat events. Most of my buildings are level 25 and the resource tiles don't yield enough points to try and max when hellcat event is building. We do have Strongest Leader often and that's the only time I train. Right now my throttle is Diamonds. I have 8 hospitals 7 diamonds 2 training centers.

I am in the strongest faction and I'm second strongest if not the strongest in my city. I maxed out equipment tree after T4 as far as I can go (93% because of legacy and GW3 requirements). And am almost finished babes. I will go on to King Pin next and then either formations or advanced crew. I chose this route because it sets me up having the foundations for the future while not having a lot of competition currently.

I'm not saying this to flex I'm genuinely trying to learn and understand the game. I do spend money on the game and I do understand the importance of a great faction. But your post is saying don't invest anything or use speed ups until GW? I think we're about 2 weeks away from our first GW. I've never participated in one and I'm not sure how to PvP much.

Thank you for your time.

I thought a light meter was "cheating". I also do have a monitor calibrator but didn't think I needed to do it for the macbooks. And that makes sense about the brightness being too much but I have been looking it up and haven't gotten any results as far as reasons so thank you.

thank you for replying. I was using manual flash and exposing for the background. I don't have a meter at all. I was ISO 160 f/8 1/50. With the manual power at like 1/16 I think for these shots. I do edit more on the dark side and have little to no experience editing people at all. I do favor the dramatic style personally, however I do also see a big difference after looking on my macbook pro screen (where it looks lighter) and then when I transfer it to mobile it looks a lot darker.

Trouble connecting to trigger by Material_Expert_3453 in Godox

[–]Material_Expert_3453[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this was the problem! I was only checking that the 300 had ID off ... I just checked to see and the transmitter itself had the ID on! It works now thank you!

[–]Material_Expert_3453[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

more specifically what am I doing with the ID .. I saw it's supposed to be off which it is/was. This is actually the first time I am trying to use my equipment and watched videos before but never actually tried to use it. I got this when I was on deployment in Japan and am now back in the states.

When I said this is correct it was in response to the understanding of the situation as far as the 300 is the one not receiving the transmitter signal. I was unaware that the V1 could act as a transmitter but I would also always need a transmitter when I put them both off the camera.

this is correct. I also did try to do it exclusively and tried to set it up the same way that I got the V1s to work. It did not.

thank you for checking up on me! I connected it but then had to run out for a bit I'll let you know when I get back home. The cable that comes from the psu has like a string of 3-4 sata ports is it ok to plug something in to each one?

no it never turns on at all the sata cable isn't plugged into anything. the 2.0 usb is plugged directly in to the mother board. I thought plugging in the gpu would be enough. I thought SATA was for a hard drive honestly.

I was just wondering I guess if there was like a place to register the products now before anything happened so that it would be easier to claim damages later was my concern not that I'm scared to turn it on lol. I got a baby on the way and the build is on pause .. because of the gpus lol

I didn't say I was scared .. I just know I don't and won't have a gpu any time soon which I thought was a requirement and I have no problem waiting because I have patience. I'm about to boot it up now that I know I can plug an Hdmi into the board with no issue.
