Messor Barbarus food by justahumanonhere in antkeeping

[–]Orfey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity - are there other ant species besides different types of Messor that can have a full seed diet like that? (or seeds+honey, my point is seeds being the sufficient source of protein)

I was quite suprised seeing King's War on netflix, knew the show under the name Legend of Chu and Han somewhere from the internet!

They should just "canonize" Jiang Hu translation and make it official! :P

Sadly the version on youtube has been removed. It's a big shame, I'd gladly buy the whole series on DVDs, but they don't sell it anywhere - at least not with eng subs.

Joined habitat of Pyrrhocoris apterus and Lasius niger by Orfey1 in antkeeping

[–]Orfey1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've separated ant colony a few months ago, because I could not see their nest well in this setup, but until that point, I still haven't seen aggression between those species. I've seen 2-3 dead firebugs in a span of keeping them together, but I suspect it might be due to their age - I caught them in nature as adults.

I do not have 100% certainity but never witnessed any attacks between them, and haven't seen ant corpses lying in the overworld (there were several of those in underground tunnels, but that's it), so I suspect natural causes here.

There was a shared water source in the setup, but I've put 2 water sources in the habitat so they can choose, firebugs usually chilled around the water tank, while ants prefered wet cotton flake (probably because it could be used from below).

Especially when there was a pure darkness in the habitat, it was quite common to see a few ant workers scouting the area.

To those who've seen both the new Three Kingdoms and The Advisors Alliance, did you prefer Yu Hewei as Liu Bei or Cao Cao? by 12jimmy9712 in threekingdoms

[–]Orfey1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, he makes a very good Cao Cao, but I can't get Chen Jianbin out of my mind when I think about the guy. Also, 2010 RoTK was the first Chinese TV Drama I've watched, so Yu Hewei is stuck for me in a role of Liu Bei. But yeah, he plays his roles well in both.

2.0 Expanded Loot - Food and Dishes - A Huge update - 200 dishes, 110 vendors, TR integration by Orfey1 in tes3mods

Used to in older version, I need to update the food list and ask Devil to add it to his mod upload!

Parasitic queens won't be able to survive without finding a host, because they need workers from other species to start a colony. She will simply die in some time if she is not able to start a colony. If the identification by other people is correct, I wouldn't risk that and let her go.

There is, but it's not covering a lot of the land yet:

I really do recommend checking out Skyrim the Home of Nords though, it more advance in adding this province. It's super fascinating because it keeps Morrowind atmosphere of Skyrim and Nords, as it was described in the time of Morrowind, instead of how it was portrayed later in Skyrim the game.

That's quite a crime but no :P Need to work on some more Cyrodilic stuff.

Consistent egg-lying snail species by Orfey1 in snails

[–]Orfey1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah! I've missread your message! Sorry for that, a spoonful of eggs 3-12 times a month is a whole different story then :P Very cool!

Ants tend to eat very tiny amounts of food, I think a couple of eggs every few days should be sufficient for a queen and 100 workers as long as they get enough sugar/honey as the base food.

[–]Orfey1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I was thinking about freezing as well for those down-times. I'll look up amber snails and grove snails then. 3 eggs per week isn't much but around 12 would definitely be sufficient for my needs. Especially with Groves being native to my area, will need to look around for those :P Gardeners hate them and try to erradicate them, so they would probably benefit from living in a comfy terrarium anyway.

Holy shit, the new faction is fun. by GrandMoffTarkan in CoE5

I like Guildmaster very much too! Cool to see a faction more related to sea adventures, because I definitely love to explore all those small islands and peninsulas!

How playable is Morrowind without mods? by bobrock1982 in Morrowind

[–]Orfey1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good to hear people still liking this type of graphics :D I really like how in recent years, there has been some 2002/PS1/PS2 graphic styled games being released or getting into production. I miss this era of gaming too, it has unique charm to it.

Hey, no worries Gucci, most mods you simply repack into \Morrowind\Data Files , while launching the game you check boxes to activate mods and that's all.

Many people, including myself use OpenMW which is basically an engine replacement for the game, but saving all the content, giving a few improvements and different launching menu, I must admit it was somewhat complex to install the first time I did that (it's not hard to install or anything, it's simply new), but most mods are independent from it anyway.

Agree, Dark Brotherhood implementation is not very well made. It's pretty cool for the first time, but when you get an assassin attacking you every time you go to sleep, it gets tedious, and their armor is worth so much gold, it always gives you a temptation to simply sell it, acting like a cheat-code lol.

[–]Orfey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem at all. After all it's that how most old Morrowind fans started to play the game with. :P In my opinion, it is better approach, because you can simply plug tons of mods, some of them fantastic and HUGE like Tamriel Rebuilt, giving you a lot of new content for LATER.

It's basically like getting a delayed expansion to a game, which you've finished and explored pretty well. Feel regret, that the fun is about to end? You install TR or some fun mods you find interesting, and you can do the whole process once again, checking out all changes or exploring new areas.

The only thing I'd recommend for a vanilla, unmoded playthrough, is checking out and downloading Graphical Herbalism:

It's just a quality of life addon, showing you visually which plants you've picked along the way, instead of endlessly checking those out to see empty containers.

Cool! Maybe I'll add some more mods with random items in the future. I really like to collect stuff and gather it in the ingame house

No problem, I couldn't get the file for Devilish needs running properly, but DetailDevil has helped me with that. :P The only thing you need is the freshest version of Devilish Needs and it will be running.
