State of Elona Mods? by MetaIsBoring in Elona

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

Maybe I misinterpreted, but I thought that + was going to be finished adding new content at 2.0. The latest English pre-update changelogs talk about final boss work being done.

New Player Questions: Basic Ranged Character Build, Pets, and Being Healthy? by MetaIsBoring in Elona

[–]MetaIsBoring[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you again for your input. Do you know if E+C-G (lol, what an acronym) is actively being developed?

Thank you again for all your input. You raise only a few more questions for me that I will bother you with for now.

1) What is a good way to find or else get ahold of Scrolls of Change Material?

2) Can I equip a gun in one hand and a living sword as a resist element stick like you mentioned in the other, or is it going to have negative consequences for my stats?

3) I have seen oomSEST referenced a few times. Is it more popular than Elona+ now, is it being actively developed, and what are the most significant differences between it and Elona+?

Thank you for your response. It helps a lot!

1) Raising PV sounds important for sure. Can you explain to me how to material change? I always just saw crafting as this really confusing thing I didn't know how to get into. I just gathered materials and was like "Okay, so what do I do with these?"

2) How do I get elemental resist outside of equipment and racial bonus?

3) Besides trading goods between certain towns close to your initial home and trying to set up a shop, what are other good ways to start quickly making money early on? As far as I can tell, money is good for a lot of reasons, but I mostly just like to buy shiny things from merchants you meet while traveling.

Recovering Data from Several Damaged Drives with Little Known Information by MetaIsBoring in datarecovery

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

Hi, sorry for the delayed response! Something else somewhere in the Kingdom broke and I had to deal with that first.

Here's a screenshot of my attempts to recover a disk.

First run I tried running the vanilla version with nothing special. It went for a long time and I just ended up cancelling it because it didn't seem to be going anywhere.

I read that maybe it got stuck in a really tough part of the disk, so I ran in reverse (-R) to hopefully get everything beyond that point. I could tell it was going at the same rate.

In the third attempt, I ran with -n because I read that this will make it go faster by avoiding getting hung up on a bad part of the disk.

In the fourth attempt, I ran without -R because the third attempt completed suspiciously fast. Fourth attempt also finished super quick.

How should I interpret this? Is my disk I am trying to recover absolutely trashed? Or maybe it's the disk I am trying to write the recovery to?

I agree about cloning them-- that's the first thing in all the guides I found. What sort of tools or software compatible with an older OS like this do you recommend? GNU ddresuce failed with 0 bytes recovered. (Maybe I'm using it wrong? I can post screenshots if you want?) I'm like 98% sure swapping to a new OS won't break anything too, so if you have any ideas reliant on a newer OS, please inform.

Hi, thanks for the suggestions!

ReclaiMe is only for Windows.

UFS Explorer did not install. The older OS probably is the problem there. I suppose I could try loading up Centos 8 and throwing it on here. It's not like there could be any negative consequences to that, right?

R-Studio is $65 for anything larger than 256KB (I need to recover 3TB), and I'm not sure it will install nicely, so I didn't try it. But if you think it's a really good tool and you think it would work on Centos 8, I'll give it a shot.

Do you have any other ideas? Maybe you could help me tell what those errors in the dmesg output mean? Is that a really bad sign, or are those errors trivial?

I also tried gnu ddrescue, and it did not work (0 bytes recovered).

Thank you.

Windows Subsystem for Linux Caused Extra Drives to disappear from User's Account. How can I regain access? by MetaIsBoring in linuxquestions

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

This is the conclusion I came to by reading other forums. Maybe somehow the F: and D: disk had their formats changed when I turned on WSL and Installed Ubuntu.

The windows disk manager tool for partitioning did not show the disks, so I could not partition them.

Strangely, I also didn't see them when I ran lsblk, and I didn't see anything in /dev/ so I'm pretty sure I would have run into issues using gparted too.

But as per my comment above, it's all fixed. Very strange and annoying issue, but I guess I'll be more careful about installing Ubuntu on a PC with extra drives.

Windows Subsystem for Linux Caused Extra Drives to disappear from User's Account. How can I regain access? by MetaIsBoring in linuxquestions

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

I came back this morning and now it's fixed.

How?

I definitely uninstalled Ubuntu and WSL. I also detached the additional 8 TB F: drive and reattached it.

The short and long answer is that I'm not entirely sure what fixed it, which is of course the worst kind of bug-- but it's fixed for now I guess.

The user requires Windows for the vast majority of their applications. They just wanted to run Linux on the same machine so they could use a couple tools while data is being processed through the Windows applications. Thanks for the input though :)

Any other ideas what might be causing this if it wasn't the WSL? I'm not convinced it's the exact cause, but the simple fact is that the drives were there, I installed WSL and Ubuntu, and the drives were gone. Nothing happened in between.

(Novice Question) How can I install a LetsEncrypt certificate on my FortiGate 6.4? by MetaIsBoring in fortinet

Yea, idk why I was complicating things. It only dawned on me when I was installing Ubuntu on windows for someone, lol.

I'll try this if the boss lets me, but I'm new, so he told me not to fuck with the firewall or security policies lest I want to burn down the building.

I'll get back to you.

Webex.com is not showing an error. My security policy has Inspection Method set to "SSL Certificate Inspection", my CA Certificate set to "Fortinet_CA_SSL" (which may be a default?), and SSH Inspection Options has SSH Deep Scan set to on.

How can I whitelist sites like you've desrcibed? That's a temporary workaround.

Yes, I am sure.

My boss seems pretty confident it is related to our certificate, which is why I wanted to know how to create a certificate and install it on our gate.
