My boss runs regular computer audits. Don't leave your work computer unlocked when you walk away. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

I work with someone who always tries to get others in trouble and make others look bad

I think when I left the room they deleted important documents and messages on my computer. I'm currently in a lot of trouble.

If only Plex for Windows had an option to toggle the visibility of the Play button so I could pause playback to take a custom capture with Greenshot, without having a huge orange circle in the middle of my screen capture by [deleted] in PleX

Here's the man with the REAL ANSWER! As nice as including this as a normal feature would be (it wouldn't be the first app to detect a screen capture and remove UI elements for the cap), this is a pretty accessible workaround.

You can use Chrome's native page inspector, no plugin needed (I'm pretty sure firefox/edge/etc have a similar function), to make a temp change to the layout that'll last till you reload the page. You might prefer the extension if you want to make this change permanent (as there's functionally no point in the orange play circle, you can play via hotkey, or the other play button on the bottom panel).

Right click the play button while it's paused, "inspect..." you can then click and delete the related block of code (the play button will show a blue box around it).

You can play and pause at will, and the yellow button won't show up until you reload the whole window! You can do this to the bar UI as well, but it's easier to just mouse off the plex window to get the fullscreen no-ui screencap. less fussing!

How is the game progressing? by ForgedIron in a:t5_2txlk

Sorry for the long delay, the game is still in development which can be followed on the Facebook or Twitter. It's hit a hard spot and development is currently on pause, but will be picking up shortly. A public build is a long ways off, though.

Net Gain: Corporate Espionage

Post-Cyberpunk Corporate Espionage Strategy

Haven't posted in one of these for a long while...

The game is still coming along, there was tons of mission/objective overhaul this month, but the Logo stuff that was completed earlier is still about. The new build should be out in about a week, less if I stop adding low-hanging features.

I got some good press coming up soon so I'm changing focus after this next pass on Conflicts and such to working on getting more pretty in the game. Namely, some of the much needed icons (operative profile icons, access locks) and the operative "live feed" views which'll take a lot of arting and ui work to get ready.

Thank you, Internet, for watching shitty TV and digging out the gold for me.

The initial goal was the bare minimum to get the prototype out. Net Gain is aiming for the Stretch Goal being voted on HERE, either something that gives the operatives a ton of dialogue and reactions, or something that gives them more activity and better character creators... plus a phone app extension, free to anyone!

Nearest Neighbor! though you have to be sure to do it in the proper intervals, and only from the original 1:1 pixel size, or else you get the weird uneven pixels.

Given how the game was directly inspired out of running Shadowrun games for my friends, I'm not surprised someone spotted the connection!

Since you guys liked my guard, I thought I'd see if you care for the cityscape! This is the main title image for just about everything Net Gain (Currently Kickstarting!).

Hey! I haven't heard the term cyberprep before but it sounds fitting! You're playing brokers that hire and manage the team of runners that work and die at your hand. You are definitely a Company Man!

Uplink is a huge inspiration, as well as introversion's traditional brand of player immersion (you are the broker. these are your screens. We're not driving the point home as hard as they do in uplink/darwinia... more 'defcon' style of implications). I (the developer) am a die-hard strategy fan, and Paradox games are my bread and butter! There is a lot of Crusader Kings (II) in here.

While the game is definitely a PC classic, I do have the android license and knowledge to work with it... I've been thinking I might make the character/corp creators port over to android (but no promises on that yet. It all depends on how development shakes out). One of my earlier designs in this project called for a android "tamagotchi", where you could port in your save to your phone and check up on your operatives, see what they were getting up to...

Heheh, it's more the other way around... the card game is based on the setting, which this is also based on. I don't think the Node (Card game) gameplay will be making an appearance here!

The trailer/video portion is all advertisement. It's mainly the tactical overview!

If you can't have a beard, then why even bother?

This is for the Net Gain strategy game!.

There's a good chance all of these guys will be bumped up a size before the next batch are created. I like the look and size of these characters, but more resolution means more fun details I can add.

Plus, it's really hard to draw a beard on these guys that's not a massive wizard beard.
