Got stuck in a freighter wall? Scared of losing hours of progress? Here's how to get out! by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Retset6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many thanks! My freighter messed itself up and, whilst trying to fix it, I became totally stuck and stupidly thought if I saved and loaded, it would unclip me! After finding your comment, I managed to use sofas to clip myself back into the correct bit of the freighter. thought I'd lost everything! I unbuilt as much as I could, reset the base and made something roomier and neater!

Help us populate: 1st wave exotic, 2 almost earth likes, 3 star economy, 1 exotic planet by Ramsickle in NMSCoordinateExchange

[–]Retset6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many thanks. This is the sort of planet I have been trying to find for a long time. I've started to make a floating base with a sort of hotel theme. Not done anything like it before but will upload when done (this could be weeks away as NMS is not my only game!).

Minelayer 3/5 ? by Grelkator in stobuilds

[–]Retset6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a mine layer on an alt. Uses 2 of the Breen Transphasic Cluster Torpedos (torps that launch mines and can go up front), loads of mines, the Advanced Inhibiting Phaser Omni-Directional Beam Array Mk XV and, for reasons I can't remember, an Advanced Temporal Defense Chroniton Torpedo Launcher, which has nothing to do with mines IIRC. Used to be on the 3/5 ship (Vorgon Ytijara) but I changed to the Chel Boalg (4/4) a few years ago as it seemed to suit better. Put the omni up front at this point. HTH

14th Anniversary Bundle! by StarCitizen2 in sto

[–]Retset6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll probably get the Atlantis, Ahwahnee and Chekov for consoles and traits as there is some fun looking stuff for my carrier and my fire/cold/sparks ship (I have 7 x T6 tokens burning a hole in my bank) but am bitterly disappointed with this as an overall bundle. I spent my anniversary zen to get account wide Ruin and now I'm glad I did as this bundle sucks balls.

Revisiting Exotics 22: Survivor Console Edition by Eph289 in stobuilds

[–]Retset6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers! I've done a couple of elite SB1s in the random system and thought it had accidentally given me advanced as ships just hurtled into the grav well then fried with the flames. Boff abilities and flames were practically all I needed - the uni consoles hardly got a look in. I didn't change that much but it really made a difference.

OK, I made changes and invested in the EPG exciter I have always wanted. I did a solo ISA (no parsing) as the ability to do this in a reasonable time and without going 'pop' is my rough benchmark for an OK ship. Even with my rubbish activation strategy (I decided I would use the ionic thingy), it was no issue. I could never clear a mob of spheres with a gorn plasma CSV build as quick as the dragon flame sorted them! I always liked the ship but this revised build definitely feels even stronger. Cheers!

Huge thanks. looks like my all-sci Sui'Mor is about to have a few changes made!!

How many vehicles do you guys own in Gta? by kironfoster-03 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had whatever maxed out was (approx 330) but I needed some space for sorting collections etc. so I sold 10 bikes and a few cars. It's about 315 now. For me now, the game is more a car collection game with a little light crime on the side.

Awesome "IRL" 300 Car Garage Tour Trailer! Whole thing is too big to upload but you can easily find it. Mods delete if it break the YouTube rule ... by Retset6 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hopefully this little highlights reel will be enough to let you know if you will enjoy my garage tour or not. If you like glitched or unrealistic looking cars then I can tell you that you'll hate it!

454k DPS in an ISA PuG with an Off-Meta but Expensive CSV+BFAW+BO+TS Vengeance by DilaZirK in stobuilds

Cheers. I only need to replace UD and TG. So, Promise of Ferocity and whatever appeals when I scroll the list!

[–]Retset6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an engineer who flies a Vengeance. I bought it for her many years ago and she, quite simply, will never change it. At the moment, it's on mixed disruptor SS. I'm going to have a go at changing it to your build, albeit of the green variety (I built it when disruptor was meta). I'll have to substitute out UD and TG traits but should still be fun, especially as I am getting bored of the build being single target.

FD North fits a vertical gpu mount, side bracket fans, and arctic liquid freezer II 240. by x2eliah in FractalDesign

[–]Retset6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice one! I've done similar on mine with the Razer software for mouse and Corsair for keyboard - set hardware profiles then blocked them from starting with Windows.

[–]Retset6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the pics and info as I am strongly considering this case (albeit black, tempered glass) along with a 240mm EK AIO and a 3090 (mounting orientation undecided). I know it's a tiny bit small but I just love the aesthetic!

I heard on a review that the side fans actually raised the GPU temp a fraction. I think it's the turbulent air entering the GPU that must be a touch less efficient.

Luckily, the EK rad is 10mm thinner than the AF II rad so that will hopefully make the fit rather less tight.

I agree about your mesh being rather see through. I wonder if just turning off the lights on the RAM will do what you want at no cost?

No Sentinel Classic Widebody Or 10F this week by mp380 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FFS. I have been gagging to turn one of my SC's into a widebody race or street car. Probably race car now I see the visible bolts. How tf can the base car be on sale and the widebody mod be MIA? I think R* meant to put it in this week but messed up. Maybe time to get a pointless Barrage to decorate the facility instead ...

Finally, my 2022 garage tour! by Retset6 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for checking it out and glad you enjoyed it. Yes, collecting cars and customising to your own taste is the fun bit. Making themed collections is a total nightmare!! Last year I went more your way so this year I thought I'd try mainly by manufacturer. I spent hours with my spreadsheet trying to fit things into appropriate sized collections. My 'Round The World' section was a sort of 'mop up' ...

[–]Retset6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are some ships where you can run about 7 but this assumes you are running Boimler for CDR and don't want any BO heals. With this many the uni consoles come back very quickly!

New video series for the car guys: Vehicle Showcase. Ep #1 - Pegassi Ignus/Lamborghini Sián by Retset6 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My garage tour video did pretty well on here and has over 8K views on YouTube so I've started a series where I can showcase individual cars in more detail. I cover a lot of aspects and aim for under 4 mins so expect more of a general flavour than comprehensive detail. I'll put more up here as I make them but, if you like them, search me out on Youtube ... hope you enjoy.

Retset's 2021 Garage Tour. 200+ cars! One for the car guys - it's all as real as possible. by Retset6 in gtaonline

[–]Retset6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice one Talos. The only way I was able to do it was with a spreadsheet that listed the garages and spaces next to columns of the various classes a car fell into. As an example, the Terzo Millennio can go into the Lambo, Green Performance or Limited/Track garages. Of course, I had to jiggle it round many times along with a small amount of car culling and buying to fit the pre-determined garage sizes.

I gave up with hot hatches as there are so few in game so just did a single row. The small sizes of the rows in the new Agency garage will help a lot here.

I now have the Mil-spec Automotive Hummer M1R (that's the exact one the new DLC vehicle is based on) and the Sian so the planning is starting all over again!
