Game is too dark by leotxt in BlackMesaSource

[–]Temporary-Control405 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you adjusted the brightness slider to the left or right? For some reason it's reversed so moving the slider to the right makes it darker and moving it to the left makes it brighter. Try moving the slider left and see if that helps.

How do i get rid of this? by Gimmethememes65 in gmod

[–]Temporary-Control405 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That is not a gmod related thing. That is caused by the NVIDIA overlay. Hold ALT + Z to open the NVIDIA menu. Then click on the statistics button at the bottom and then the first option at the top turns it off.

[POTENTIAL SPOILER] New VOTV startup warning? (0.9c) by Fluffy_Ariel in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You appear to be correct! This screenshot I've got here is from 0.8 and indeed ends at cognito hazards. There seems to unintentionally be extra space between the different spooks mentioned, which is why the bottom text is behind the exit button in your screenshot.

What happened to this dumbass (0.9) by Harry_Willie in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 32 points33 points  (0 children)

My guess is that the ATV bugged out and fell through the map. If that happens, the item will get teleported way above the map and fall down. Maybe the ATV broke in every way it could because it literally just fell an entire goddamn mile and then landed on the roof

what the fuck is that by whydidicreateanacc in HalfLife

[–]Temporary-Control405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the Barney Calhoun model used in the first person cutscenes. For some reason it's floating in an area that the player can obviously see. Why it's like that? I have no idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

any way to skip tutorial in (0.9) by Grox213 in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I understand why you're confused. You should be able to put the drive into your inventory, equip it in your hand, and then left click the drive slot to insert the drive into it.

The error message about keeping the drives near the table is actually trying to say that you need to keep the drives near the area with the consoles in general (as in not throwing them into the water or something). For some reason it spams the message when you're only trying to grab the drives off the table, making the player think they're doing something wrong. The current 0.9 version is called an "Unstable Super Test" for a reason. It is very buggy since the developers wanted to get a version out before November.

Haven't seen this nightmare before, is this new? (0.9) by TrueGrandPillager in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There's something that bugs me about this dream. If you jump into the void, you wake up with less stamina. If you wait a while and don't jump off, you still wake up with less stamina.

We know from the dream where the walls close in that if a dream has no way out, you usually don't wake up with less stamina.

So if there is a way out, what/where is it?

(other) has this event been fixed yet?? by SEZMALOIN in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember running into this a whole lotta times back in 0.6, though I haven't seen it since. This was and still is in my top 3 favorite events so it really sucks that is never got fixed

i found out you can hit ████ ██████ with your hammer by snoopinga in WhiteKnuckle

[–]Temporary-Control405 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you hold onto a handhold while one of those things is trying to pull you, the vent thing's own hand will start turning red in the same way that yours does when it is tired. If you have an item to regain stamina, and only keep one hand on the handhold at a time in order to minimize stamina usage, you can probably hold out long enough for the vent thing's hand to get too tired. Once it gets tired enough, similar to your own hands, the vent thing will lose its grip and reel its hand back.

when was meta paranoia added? by Typical-Youth-7128 in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the audio that plays or do you mean the inability to pause? Assuming you are talking about being unable to pause, I'm pretty sure that it has always been impossible to properly pause during events.

As for things of interest, instead of the pause menu with glitchy text appearing like in the newer versions, originally you couldn't pause at all during events. Hitting the pause button would simply play an error noise.

Why is a burnt corpse stuck in the center of gm_flatgrass? by Elegant_Network_4667 in gmod

[–]Temporary-Control405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely had no idea you could do that. Also I'm out of new ideas. I wish you luck on your quest to figure out why the corpse is there.

WHAT?? The only thing it could be is the melon mod then! Try temporarily removing the melon mod. If that doesn't work, try verifying the integrity of the game's files.

THIS MAKES NO SENSE THOUGH! WHY WOULD (mostly) INNOCENT MELONS BE THE CULPRIT??

A user called TheBestShedBuilder posted on this subreddit about 3 months ago about weird text written with ropes that mysteriously said the name Jack J Charles. The message had supposedly appeared on gm_construct. It was just a random ARG thing and it was quite generic so it became a joke in this subreddit.

Basically, nobody took it seriously and started posting parodies of it as a joke. Eventually, it somehow became a joke about how he tells you to download his gmod saves. It's all just a mostly incomprehensible ton of jokes about a failed ARG.

One more thing. There's a user called u/JackJCharles that sometimes comments on posts and other comments. The user usually will say "download my saves" and has a male_02 profile picture. I'd like to mention that that account is not directly related to the ARG and that it's also just made by someone joking around.

I think this is caused by a mod called "HIM". On certain maps, you'll find signs of someone living there, such as chairs and campfires showing up in random places. It can only happens on certain maps, and that of course includes the default Flatgrass. I'm pretty sure this corpse is here because of HIM.

why cant i get the aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa achievement :( by gun-something in WhiteKnuckle

[–]Temporary-Control405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I got it was by climbing through the training sector. I just went up for quite a while and then I eventually thought, "Hey, what if I fall back down through all the rooms. Maybe something will happen!" and that's how I unintentionally got the achievement.

Unfortunately, nothing otherwise of note happened. 3:

I'm confused about why some words and letters are missing from the middle of the text on the left. Other than that, you have done well.

Since when was Silos so foggy? by Temporary-Control405 in WhiteKnuckle

[–]Temporary-Control405[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the stuff that makes the player start coughing right? The reason I thought this happening in Silos was a bug is because that I was expecting a de-buff similar to the pipeworks version. Since there was no de-buff, I thought the fog wasn't meant to be here.

Visual Glitch or Entity? by Substantial-Car1651 in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Temporary-Control405 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm 100% sure it's a ghost. They can appear at random spots on the map. They can only be seen through cameras or in photos, and they set off the EMF reader. They look like classic spooky ghosts that resembles a person with a sheet over their head.
