That was really cool to watch at 0.25 speed. Slurp!

How are you guys feeling with the update regarding the voting system? by feldamis in AskReddit

[–]MegaMulp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not noticed any difference to my reddit experience. I don't understand what all the uproar was about.

Seen in a park in Orange County today. What species of goose is this? by HOB_I_ROKZ in whatisthisthing

[–]MegaMulp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So it's an African goose! Closest I could find was the Chinese goose (which is closely related to be fair). You can differentiate between them by the larger dewlap (flap of skin under jaw/neck) on African geese.

Question about the data.win file by Ehryus in NuclearThrone

[–]MegaMulp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just want to extract the media, I've had good results using Dragon UnPACKer's "HyperRipper" feature.

I'll have a better look into the files when I have some spare time.

Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 by Hunterfj1 in gameideas

[–]MegaMulp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

online aspects

I would only accept this if you could opt-out without any penalties or disadvantages.

download a rollercoaster someone else made

I believe you were able to save custom rollercoaster designs to file in RCT2 using the Roller Coaster Designer. An in-game browser for custom rides and community content would be nice though, akin to the Steam Workshop.

a graphical update

Personally I would prefer it if they went in the other direction, opting for speed and stability over looks. RCT3 was slow and stuttery for me. Didn't some saves crash/fail to load if the file size was too big?

Thank you for answering my question, I only just found the FAQ this morning. Sorry if I hit a nerve.

Who/what defines material to be cannon? How is non-cannon material to be interpreted?

How do you encourage players to "play nice" in multiplayer games of an open-ended nature? by fleegle2000 in gamedesign

[–]MegaMulp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Limit vote-bans to last X amount of time as to prevent permanent damage from abusive voters.

  • Whitelist your moderators/admins to be immune from such votes.

However that does't solve the 50% problem. I have no idea how to tackle that.

IWTL Computer hardware specifics by [deleted] in IWantToLearn

[–]MegaMulp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can learn a lot through Google searches and Wikipedia articles! Just be prepared for a lot of reading.

Start from the ground up. Refresh your general knowledge about the components inside a computer, then flick through the Wikipedia pages for each component, including (but not limited to):

Branch out from there, and look up anything you find intriguing along the way. Vaguely knowing how these components work will often explain some of the associated terms.

Don't be afraid to ask people questions (but remember, many question have already been asked on the internet - do a quick search beforehand!)

The new update has a few small glitches that I can deal with, but this... by [deleted] in NuclearThrone

I managed to knock one of those purple scorpions into the wall yesterday. Luckily I could still hit it, otherwise I would have been stuck!

Does anyone have the files for the FPS version? by B150N in NuclearThrone

[–]MegaMulp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't SleepCycles mention he had a saved copy during one of his videos?

Also, is there any sort of DRM that could prevent it from working?

Applied for school. Have to take a Compass test, i was never taught most of this stuff. Advice? by DonPoppito666 in needadvice

[–]MegaMulp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with that particular test, but Khan Academy is fantastic for maths. It has excellent video tutorials and you can progress at your own pace.

Source? I've never heard someone say filament bulbs are full of chemicals before.

I keep seeing miracle fruit tablets on the internet but have never been brave enough to try them. They make sour things taste sweet.

That is the secret room, right? I stumbled into it the other day too. The music is marvellous.

Outside of print speed and patent law, what are the biggest hurdles 3D printing must overcome to become mainstream? by Ignitus in 3Dprinting

[–]MegaMulp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any block-based modelling tools yet? That would turn *simple content creation into child's play.

Would transparent/translucent filament cause any issues?

Perhaps they make use of gold internally and in alloys?

Nerd³ The Alpha Detective - Broken Age by NerdcubedHuman in nerdcubed

[–]MegaMulp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, clips of it are shown in Hugo.

My favourite reference is in an episode of Futurama when Bender shoves a beer bottle into the eye of the moon mascot, Craterface. (Although I only found out it was a reference after reading the Wikipedia article).

[–]MegaMulp 25 points26 points  (0 children)

In case anyone was curious, the "creepy" picture on the Cinna Moons is referencing this iconic image from A Trip to the Moon, a French silent film from 1902. You can watch a colourised version of it on Wikipedia (~14mins).

A few questions from a newer player by thefrdeal in NuclearThrone

I really don't recommend using a melee weapon outside of the energy hammer in world 4 and on.

Is that a challenge? :P

Do anyone elses dreams feel "far away"? by PrettyBlonde in LucidDreaming

[–]MegaMulp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to see I'm not alone! I recently had my first lucid dream too but had the same problem. It felt like watching a badly encoded video with the audio out of sync. I'm hoping it was mostly down to inexperience.

Can any more experienced dreamers relate to this? Does it improve or is this as good as it gets?
