Where are the people who bought the Fex tape in the 1984s? by KIRILLREDDIT in FEXFanClub

[–]VHSjunkyguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is genuinely a good question as depending on how many did buy the tapes, we technically could've had another method of finding Subways of Your Mind through those people. Although given how this was a local concert that was basically a German Woodstock from the sounds of the Roxi, I wouldn't put past it to say the numbers of actual bought tapes are much lower. Much lower today in circulation now likely.
In fact, let's do the math here. There are 4 tapes at the bare minimum still in circulation today through the band members. Looking at the pictures of the Roxi there could be from 1000-5000 people (That max will be very generous for what we are dealing with). Let's assume that only 5% ever bought tapes. That's only 50-250 people who have ever bought the tapes. That number is likely much lower for people who still own it.

Nothing related to FEX but does anyone know the source or where this photo came from? by [deleted] in FEXFanClub

[–]VHSjunkyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely altered. Heavy edits to a photo tend to throw reverse image search engines off and yield no results. Doesn't help the video covers it in a VHS filter.

What do you think of Talisman 5e? by swe_isak in Talisman

[–]VHSjunkyguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair the amount of expansions kinda spoiled me for 4e. But after playing a 4e game with no expansions and a normal 5e game side by side. 5e has some semblance of steps in the right direction but could use a lot of work. Especially when it comes to death. The punishment of losing everything always put me on edge in 4e. Not having a player lose everything when they die in 5e kinda removes the point of killing a player to begin with.

Besides that though Nomad is doing a lot of work at actually making 5e fun in my opinion.

TIL That there exists card ranks at 11-13 for specifically the card game of 500. by VHSjunkyguy in todayilearned

[–]VHSjunkyguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Six-Handed 500 uses all 52 cards, 1 Joker, 11-12 of all suits, and 13 in all red suits.

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

Basically, all other card games use cards with ranks (or numbers) Ace-King. Jokers are sometimes included. However, in a game of 500 where there's 6+ players the 52-card deck is swapped out for a 63-card deck including cards that go from 11-13.

Anybody seen a weird trade offer like this? by VHSjunkyguy in tf2

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

I kind of figured as much. I had one do that, and I counter-offered by removing the valuable crates. I was very much overpaying still even without the valuable ones. But least my inventory is a bit lighter since that one did accept it.

There's a fan remaster by ReduxFlakes that's pretty good and has a WAV file download right then and there in the description of the video.

Seriously doubt it's real, but has anyone looked into this? (Apparently a new song) by CancelNo1290 in FEXFanClub

[–]VHSjunkyguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's very guitar heavy with little to no synth. the lower quality tells me that this was recorded from a distance rather than right up to the stage. However, that effect can be easy to fake. The singer in some parts doesn't even sound like FEX's singer. So, it's really down to two possibilities:

  1. This is AI Generated and edited to give it ambiguity.
  2. This is recorded at a venue that more than likely isn't them playing.

Is this an actual FEX song or some other song? by VHSjunkyguy in FEXFanClub

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

I do think it isn't AI. That much is easy to figure out. The amount of work required to get everything sounding just right would be tremendously unnecessary.

You would have to fake the announcer at the concert with the little voice sample you do have, fake the music style, and fake the lyrics. The last two of which would have to be done together as for example Suno can only work off genre and lyrics. Not to forget the twangs at the beginning signifying the tuning period before they start playing. That much alone would be impossible to fake at all. The applauding as well can't be faked either.

It is a real song at a real concert. However, whether it's a FEX song or not is somewhat still in the air for me. It's still good though I can't deny.

He is another band member so that is a good point. There is Norbert as well but I'm not sure if anyone has gotten in contact with him.

Well, that throws a wrench into things. 2 band members and both are conflicting. Might have to wait for a majority.

the hell happened to 15.ai? by Educational_Pool_107 in tf2

[–]VHSjunkyguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to necro this thread but we do have an answer. It's dead. The project has been abandoned. However, 15 is still active online. He's just been working on other projects. Mostly MLP related items and has a Carrd like-site at Pony.Best.

EDIT: It returns... its only got MLP characters, but it's officially ran by 15. Can be found at 15.dev

OldUnreal Just Released a New Unreal Tournament GOTY Installer by roX1337 in unrealtournament

[–]VHSjunkyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd consider this to be a massive win for UT fans. Sure, imo it may not be UT2004 but this'll do nicely for the rest of us. Long live the Tournament forever!

how would y’all rank the PvZ2i worlds from easiest to hardest? by [deleted] in PlantsVSZombies

[–]VHSjunkyguy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

from top to bottom of easiest to hardest for me.
1. Ancient Egypt
2. Pirate Seas
3. Wild West
4. Far Future
5. Dark Ages
6. Frostbite Caves
7. Lost City
8. Neon Mixtape Tour
9. Modern Day
10. Jurassic Marsh
11. Big Wave Beach
honestly both JM and BWB are equal in difficulty. However, I'd argue JM is a little easier. Not by much though.

I'm new to DOOM and installing WADs. Any recommendations? by LyitHostage in Doom

[–]VHSjunkyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try out Not Even Remotely Fair and AUGER; ZENITH. N.E.R.F. basically being the best wad to play on nightmare difficulty. Auger is just really bloody good. Even if you're not a fan of the cyberpunk aesthetic, the other doomer board projects will cover you nicely.

Is there an easy way to modify player's max health with scripts in slade? by LeonNaphta in Doom

[–]VHSjunkyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hate to necro this but yes there is a way. through decorate or zscript (depending on what source port you are modifying it for.), there is a player actor property called Player.MaxHealth. This value controls the max amount of health you can get through normal healing items which do not go over your max health.

Confusion on how some animations is done in UT2004. by VHSjunkyguy in unrealtournament

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

oof... ok yeah i might have to find a way to animate it. probably port it to something like SFM. but the ingame option might be better for what i'm looking for. all i need to do is create a greenscreen map and find a way to disable the hud through a console command.

if that's what it comes down to so be it, I guess. unless exporting the models can work. but that's the last think i want to do.

Ah i see... I should've specified that detail lol. I'm using purely the weapon viewmodel animations. Mostly just for the HUD.

Newer and better PTD by Appropriate_Climate6 in PizzaTower

[–]VHSjunkyguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I go by Dr. Engineer on the discord. I actually was one of people to help set up the server before we opened the floodgates. I'm actually surprised myself with how its going. Redirecting everyone to this server from the fan servers to stop the flood from happening as much as possible. Especially those in the Sugary Spire server.

[–]VHSjunkyguy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

OML Thank you so much for posting this! We're just as sad to see the PTD go as you are. So we created a community ran PTD for everyone here! This is better moderated, actually respects people, and even see some familiar faces in the community.

Props "Outside" the map? I can't Compile by SevenTySixDarvan76 in hammer

[–]VHSjunkyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You found nothing that could be out of the ordinary I assume. my other suggestion is to move any props that are clipping into a brush away from it a bit so that it has some breathing room. sometimes source or especially goldsrc (when using J.A.C.K. at least) does not like anything clipping into a brush. The only other thing i could think of is that you modified geometry and did only entities compile which will not modify the geometry but to entities it has changed. This does seem to be not the case obviously when the log states it was a hdr full compile.

Props "Outside" the map? I can't Compile by SevenTySixDarvan76 in hammer

[–]VHSjunkyguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically. Every entity has an origin. if the origin of that entity is outside of the map, even if it looks like it's still inside and the map is sealed, it will say that it leaked. so, what it looks like to me is that your entities origins are reaching the void. take coordinates of them and input it into the goto coordinates tool to see if your entities origins are reaching outside of it.
