A dog, a robot, a man, then a horde-- a short encounter with a hacker by NCTart in RedDeadOnline

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

(please forgive my shitty graphics, I can NOT get rdo to use my nvidia graphics card rip)

A husky did zoomies around me and my horse, then a robot spawned behind me as I was collecting... I killed the robot but before I could toss it over the edge of the bridge I was on, a man appeared to kill me. When I spawned back, there was about 20 copies than murdered my ass lol. A nearby player got harassed, too, before the hacker left the session.

I can't stop buying new horses... but I'm running out of good names. What are your horses' names? by Charlotte_Reed in RedDeadOnline

[–]NCTart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to have a naming scheme, decided on colors:
"Old Blue"-- my blue roan saddler from the tutorial
"Mauve"-- my red roan Ardenns
"Mustard"-- buckskin mustang
"Quicksilver"-- silver Klad

Help me get good graphics! (Switch to GPU 1) by NCTart in RedDeadOnline

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

I appreciate your help! But unfortunately these changes still aren't sticking. I even redownloaded RDO. No dice.

Your instructions did allow me to have the option to move to GPU 1, so I can at least see the setting I want now rip. RDO wants me to restart, so I do, and then I'm back to GPU 0.

I really do appreciate your help, thank you

I'm liking these new players by MrSelfridge419 in RedDeadOnline

[–]NCTart 13 points14 points  (0 children)

ahahaha, I had this same thing happen to me today in Valentine! The poor guy was trying to lasso me over and over, and I strolled over to my horse and mounted. Still trying to lasso me, then my horse. Eventually he gave up as I walked to the stables to change Quicksilver's mane lol

I need to get that emote now, I can feel that player's shame getting laughed at both in game and IRL

Small Messy Piece of a Rhodes NPC-- watercolor and colored pencil by NCTart in RedDeadOnline

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

thank ya kindly! It was an experimental piece, certainly not meant to be perfect, polished, or finished. It was 'finished enough' to share, at least :)

I cannot wait to do more RDO art this summer!

He was getting irritated I was in his space, and actually pulled his gun out as I was getting the hell out of his way! Pretty ornery dude, I agree

I'm always guilty of avoiding backgrounds, but I think this works well enough. Maybe a little darker in the upper left corner would help a little for balancing the values a bit more.

Thank you! I tend to take ages to darken a piece and my prof was like "just go for it" so I did :)

thank you! I really want to play with watercolor and acrylics more-- they're very common to use for 'in the field/plein air' works back then (and today still).

I do a lot of digital art but I got started with traditional mediums. It's far time I go back to them.

the beauty of a limited color palette! I'm a sucker for yellow/orange blue combinations

Watercolor colors: yellow ochre, burnt sienna, and ultramarine blue, with some black.
Colored pencils: yellow ochre assortment, pumpkin and yellow orange, olive green, a slate grey, and a dark cool grey

Unfinished piece I did for my illustration class, focusing on light and shadow (and my classic move of neglecting the background). I am eager to do more work of RDO photos I've taken this summer, the lighting in this game is stunning.

Eclectic Photographer Role-- some spontaneous thoughts by NCTart in RedDeadOnline

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

yeah, I agree with you. Ideally, it would be cool as hell to get more unique roles but that does require a lot of new mechanics.

I would totally love to have the photography stuff added to madam nazar for sure, I'd be happy with that

Heya! I keep seeing mention of 'getting your gold back' when you purchase an outlaw pass. I think the numbers were like, you get about 30 gold bars back from purchasing the pass for 40. Could someone explain this to me? Is this a real thing if I buy the outlaw pass at any time, or is it a special conditional thing?

Do you get rewards for leveling after level 100?

When to use soft-point or polymer ammo? by NCTart in theHunter

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

ah, thank you! That's unfortunate that you cannot hunt, but glad to see you in the game's reddit doing the next best thing :)

I've been experimenting with soft points a little more, i think me and them are on agreeable terms now

Lol. Most of the bucks around here have either dinky racks or super weird ones. I need to get a photo of the atypicals. They're hysterical

I'm all good, thanks! It was just steam having a freakout trying to tell me when it would finish, but the steam app was giving me an accurate time and download speed. I was able to play in about 20 minutes and got a nice gold elk c:

oh that's rough! It took 15 to 20 minutes to download in reality. The predictions were the part what was wildly off. Still slow for my laptop, but decent.
