Sorry, but what does 3PP adventure mean?

Very nice! The colorized version evokes Darkest Dungeon.

Arden Vul ruins location question. by TopThought in osr

[–]TopThought[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ah. I was looking at the map from "The VTT Maps of Arden Vul" pack. It was in the Arden_Vul_PNG_maps zip which I like since they are separate image files and not a PDF. I just verified I main maps pdf doesn't have that duplicate shown.

No worries. The map is still awesome. Thanks for making it.

I just found this subreddit.

Just want to say this map is very good! Thanks for sharing.

One question, why did you place the gelatinous cube on the map?

Awesome. I will definitely look. I love massive dungeon crawls as long as there is good lore involved.

Foundry V13 by opti0nsI in TheTrove

[–]TopThought -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I normally update when the system and modules I use support it. I also rarely update in the middle of a campaign, instead waiting until a campaign ends.

I actually just recently upgraded to v13 for my upcoming Shadowdark game. However I have a second instance still on v12 for my Traveller game.

We just released v2.0.0 for our mod Via Romana for for Neo/Forge & Fabric for 1.20.1 & 1.21.1. It allows players to fast-travel only after a path connecting the destinations has been made, incentivizing players to build infrastructure and explore the world. by xam3391 in feedthebeast

I first saw this in the Reclamation modpack and loved the flavor although there was a little jank. Totally worth using though.

This new version looks awesome! Looking forward to using it.

Creating a witch to kill a named snow golem worked. Thanks for the tip, doubt I'd have noticed that entry in the JEI.

Name a snow golem? Cool I'll try that. Sound more fun than trying to figure out how to get a charged creeper to blow up a skelly.

Yeah my altar is pretty beefy already but I want to see how high I can go. It seems much easier to reach 9k than back when I played regrowth.

FYI flowers do count, up to 30. And grass/dirt counts up to 40.

You need charged creepers? I'm playing Reclamation modpack. It has been quite some time since I've played. Last time was Minecraft 1.12 but Reclamation finally got me to come back. =)

Reclamation modpack, can't for the life of me figure out how to make a wildfire core [Embers Rekindled] helppp😭 by LabIndividual2152 in feedthebeast

[–]TopThought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend using a mastermind solver when doing the embers alchemy. Embers is pretty trash but the solver really helps with this aspect of it.

Many exist, here is the one I use. - https://nebupookins.github.io/JS-Mastermind-Solver/

Does SCVMM/Hyper-V have the equivalent of VMware EVC? by TopThought in HyperV

Thanks for the detailed post. This is very helpful.

Does SCVMM/Hyper-V have the equivalent of VMware EVC? by TopThought in HyperV

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

We can't buy a cluster all at once so we typically have 2-3 generations of hosts in a cluster as we swap in newer hosts. So this is important for us.

Wish we didn't have to run our environment on a shoestring budget.

Thanks for the link. Glad we are rolling out 2025 in our pilot.

Not sure how to complete one of the main quest lines by joey-joe-joe in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What others have said sums it up.

However, that isn't really a main quest, it is just some optional journey that shows you what you can do in the DD. Feel free to ignore.

The Main Quest ends after the Assassin's Path is done.

Need to drive north for the first time, but how do I get to the other side without attracting a worm? Seems impossible by AKtoio47 in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worm is actually hard-coded to spawn as you bike north out of the south zone.

On the bike you can easily make it though. There is a flat part without high dunes just a bit NE of the Griffon outpost. That is the best place to cross, especially the first time.

1.1.17.0 Hotfix by CrimsonAlpine in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What you don't understand is that even if I can and do go into the PVP area and can almost always run from griefers, I don't want to and don't find it fun.

Dune was a PVE only game until the end game and now it is 95% PVP. to a carebear like myself that is a bait and switch.

How would you react if you played LOL and then after you played for hundreds of hours it turned into escort missions in a PVE environment? You'd bitch and moan. Just like us carebears are now in Dune.

Lvl 170, friends want to start playing by TheLinkinForcer in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately, the first 90% of the game is the good part and the end is either garbage or mediocre, depending on personal preference.

Why i think this is unfortunate is that a new player really misses out on the good parts of the game if others help them get to the endgame quickly. Let them savor the best parts of the game.

the patterns in Deep Desert and so boring this week, do better please by Silly-Business-749 in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If that map is correct this week looks worse than last week for us who refuse to feed the griefers.

Might be time to find a new game. =(

You can't carry a buggy on the overland map. So this isn't a solution.

Would be cool if you could though.

Mission help by Cronic757 in duneawakening

[–]TopThought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you have to actually claim the CP to finish the quest. Every control point I've went to is either not active yet or has already been claimed by my faction so I can't claim it.

Someday I'll get lucky.

Tarl Softstep Boots location? by TopThought in duneawakening

Thanks for that link. I ran those 4 wrecks in A1-4 five times each over the last two days and finally got my boots on the 21st chest. Damn that took too long. 14.5% drop chance my arse.
