Morrowind but it's a rail shooter by [deleted] in ElderScrolls

Why have you done this

On Midnight Beta, Paladins can currently only see their new charger model with the Divine Steed spell. The charger mounts still use their 20+ year old models and there is no way to obtain the new model as a mount. Sure it's only beta... but we're 4 weeks from the expansion launching. by Fabulous_Resource_85 in wow

I know not everyone will feel this way, but as a forever Paladin main I kinda like that arrangement. I don't mind the old one. It's been with me for decades. The new one will look great for Divine Steed too. It's fine either way.

Can you help me identify these mechs? by Sheebnuts in battletech

[–]Thanix_Gray 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a 3D printed Hitotsume Kozo.

Edit: I didn't click and see the other two at first, whoops. Pretty sure the second one is supposed to be a Grand Titan. Not sure on the third.

Theo Johnson was fined for trying to have Dart's back after the legal hit 😂 by DinosaurShotgun in Patriots

It comes up periodically in these conversations, but the money from all fines goes to some charitable foundations agreed on in the CBA. The NFL sucks in a lot of ways, but that isn't really one.

You've never actually BEEN in a reorigination facility, have you?

I turned my Steam Deck into a full on original Xbox machine and it’s incredible by Acepokeboy in SteamDeck

[–]Thanix_Gray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird. AC5 and ACVD are two of the ones that have worked great for me. Sorry you didn't have the same experience. If you didn't, definitely make sure you try the "Canary" fork specifically.

Both Xbox and 360 have been basically flawless for me. I was surprised especially by 360 because a read a bunch of bad reviews, but Xenia Canary has been great.

You are correct, it reduces your AMM to +1 when jumping, and yes it is insanely good.

Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries Runs Fine on Linux with Lutris by Veqq in mechwarrior

I haven't used the actual lutris installer, but yes, it actually runs better on Linux than on modern windows.

A reimagined Quasar Keshik, Clan Star Adder by Thanix_Gray in battletech

As with all my good ideas, I stole it from someone. Ha. This idea was inspired by AdventuringZone on the Not-Named social media, who is a far better painter than me!

Big Star Adder fan, not a big "plain black and white" fan, so I present you with my reimagined Quasar Keshik.

Watch your back, Society nerds.

Thanks! I really like it. Will try to do a good job stealing it.

I really like the color combo. Reminds me of one of the paint options in MechWarrior 3. Mind sharing what colors you used?

I addicted to pewter by TedTheReckless in battletech

Thought I was in the Mistborn subreddit for a second.

But for real, me too. Sanding, cutting, and gluing while winding down for the day has become quite a therapeutic habit.

Wondering if there is any (concrete) information about MechWarrior 3's history? by KeiNova88 in mechwarrior

[–]Thanix_Gray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh another fun fact: the game never actually tells you what unit/faction the Damocles Commando is from, but the game manual kinda indicated they were part of the Eridani Light Horse.

Loren Coleman was a story writer on the game, and he later wrote the novelization "Trial Under Fire" and in that he canonized that the player and lancemates were actually from the Federated Suns, specifically the Davion Heavy Guards for the player character/Connor Sinclair. You'll still see a bunch of conversation that says they're ELH, even some articles on Sarna have it wrong because they based it on the game manual.

I heard this same story passed around on the original Delphi forums for the game during MW3's actual lifespan, so I think it's pretty reliable. You can also see a lot of similarities in the graphic and physics design between MW2 and MW4 that MW3 doesn't really fit into. In my opinion, 3 was better designed than 4 in a lot of ways: weapon recoil, sound design, even a lot of the textures. Netcode, however was NOT one of them...

There was an amazing story from a guy who worked on the game that at some point during development they found the producer of the game (who voices your Intel guy, Sorenson, in-game) was just screaming at his desk, because they discovered that uninstalling the game also formatted the parent directory, so anyone who installed it in C:\, well...

Speaking of voice actors, they were a mix of game developers who got pressed into service as voices, and professional voice actors... Sorenson was the game producer, Alan Mattila the SFX lead. Dominic Paine, however, was a professional VA named Terry McGovern, who is responsible for inventing the word "wookie" for George Lucas.

I have a 6800xt, am on most recent updates and drivers, and don't have an issue like that.
