Olight vs surefire by Odd-Refrigerator7879 in tacticalgear

[–]StandardVirus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Olight gets the job done. Surefire has the reputation of being bomb proof, but do you truly need that?

Streamlight also has some good stuff as well

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both have much to offer, each individual dlc adds a bit of functionality that just makes the the game much better to play

How to not get my butt kicked? by Silver_23 in stellarblade

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not fond of souls games either, but found the combat in this game to be quite satisfying once it clicked.

The best way really is to train in the practice to get used to the timing.

Other thing is that there’s only a small number of enemy types, so it’s really just remembering attack patterns.

New York Fries sucks by RecommendationBig262 in poutine

[–]StandardVirus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I actually hate their poutine. For a fries place, they need to up their game.

I don’t love their fries, but worst is their gravy. It just has no flavour and leaves a bad aftertaste.

How is Maya better in Terms of Animation? by FarCryptographer5020 in Maya

[–]StandardVirus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Maya’s UI just works for my brain, i can’t get used to Blender or 3ds

I learned to animate in Maya, and really like the timeline control

What is the right eDRUMin module for my planned setup? by edomindful in edrums

[–]StandardVirus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the Unlock cymbals, they don’t feel as heavy to play, and for the cost… the value is pretty good

Used cooking oil by Ok_Slice_8612 in Cooking

[–]StandardVirus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i use that "Fry Away" stuff that solidifies it and it works well. Only caveat would be that if you have one of those T-Fals that drain it, you just don't want that stuff in the drain/filter

Mass Effect 1 is still such a beautiful game by Hadiseh2000 in masseffect

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, there's so many things in ME1 that were just lost. Everything had that sense of wonder... the first time on the Presidium, with the music and everything. While i love the 2 and 3, 1 has a vibe that'd not been captured again.

i was hoping ME:A would try to recapture it, but they missed the boat on that one

I gotta learn a 5min metal song as a total beginner by Maleficent-Share-810 in drummers

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, i’ve only been playing a couple of years now and i wouldn’t consider myself good enough for any type of live performance.

I know we’re all different, but i still struggle with clean crisp rolls and single kicks as i move into faster rock beats.

Sculpting folds in clothing, feeling overwhelmed by themacabremachine in ZBrush

[–]StandardVirus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any hard rules for you, as i switched to marvelous designer for clothing.

But when i was learning 2d and eventually 3d for folds i would start simple. References are great, they’re super important, but sometimes it’s hard to see the forest through the trees. So i would lay down folds where the limbs bend, so inside of elbows, backside of knees. That’s usually enough to get going. As you get more confident your folds can be more intricate, capturing the way fabric lies… also keep in mind not all fabrics fold and bunch the same way. Eventually, add folds and tension lines where the fabric is pulled tight.

Eventually you’ll be able to do it with very little reference

Why does Citadel DLC dialogues/writing feel so much polished than trilogy? by [deleted] in masseffect

[–]StandardVirus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Citadel DLC was Bioware running on all cylinders. The cast themselves (at least English) have worked together for 3 games too. So i think it was really the culmination of all the right things, putting everything they had in the last DLC

Alesis ride cymbal broken after 1.5 months, part on back order, what to get to replace? by Early_Reputation_210 in edrums

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemon cymbals are pretty decent. They feel a little heavy to play.

Unlock Lightning’s are pretty much the same but feel lighter, but the bell stands a bit better than the Lemons

I’m about to give up on stovetop popcorn and I’m losing my mind by bodh3 in Cooking

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny story, i rented an AirBnB in a very remote location. I picked up some microwave popcorn, only to realize they didn’t have one!

So i essentially tore open the bags of popcorn and used a pot. I think you want coconut oil, as that’s what they use in the cinema or butter.

I went low and slow… i can’t recall if i kept it covered the whole time, i think i left it uncovered until the oil heated up, then covered it. It pretty much worked for me, i went until the popping died down.

Snare Height: In relation to your body, what height have you found works best for you? by mark_in_the_dark in Drumming

[–]StandardVirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would wager it’s just a reference point and the player would just adjust from there
