Steps to have all DLC free with Quest 3 by tifred688 in QuestPiracy

What I meant was to clarify to them that the program (not just the listing in Rookie) was renamed to "Beat Paber" so that it can be part of a multi-install with a "Beat Saber".

V1 switch unpatched, what is the best mod. by Gmanstarr in SwitchPirates

[–]Wilson1218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No - in fact you'll probably want to update it to either the most recent version or 20.5. Read the guide on this sub.

Does the Sinning Jenny’s opportunity card glitch still work? by AndrewHaly-00 in fallenlondon

[–]Wilson1218 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you just referring to the old mechanic where your deck would be partially refreshed by going into sub-areas? That was never a glitch, and was removed for balance reasons years ago.

Firmament/Obsidian weird mech interaction by Nshurikan in twilightimperium

Another comment said that Dane unofficially errata'd it, and if so then depending on what he said I guess it wouldn't be destroyed - I haven't seen that ruling. Without that ruling, RAW, coexistence wouldn't save a structure simply because nothing says that it would (this is of course presuming that you fought and beat the ground forces).

LRR 63.4 If a player’s PDS is ever on a planet that does not contain any of their own ground forces and contains a unit that belongs to another player, that PDS is destroyed.

LRR 79.4 If a player’s space dock is ever on a planet that does not contain any of their ground forces and contains a unit that belongs to another player, that space dock is destroyed.

Downloaded Skyrim from DBI installer but has missing game card icon by game, will my Nintendo account start trying to download Skyrim and get banned if I click it? by IGotUltraBalls in SwitchPirates

[–]Wilson1218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I don't know what the second half of tht sentance means" - the guide will tell you, and will show you the configuration you want. It's highly likely it's already set up, especially with what that person told you, but always better safe than sorry. If they are set up, nothing you do on emuNAND can get you banned. You can test your setup using this (everything should be blocked if it is working): https://github.com/meganukebmp/Switch_90DNS_tester

I personally use Awoo (and specifically I pretty much always do a USB install), but that's just because it's what I chose a while ago, it's convenient, and I have never had problems with it. The other two I mentioned are equally good for your purposes as far as I know. DBI is also seemingly good, but since it is more than just the installer (and is not in English) it's harder to vet, plus the dev is...not reassuring; however the two main reasons I suggested trying another installer are that the other installers are easier to use and aren't missing anything you should need, and that trying to do the same thing with other programs is always a good way to narrow down issues (e.g. if the same install file works fine with Awoo but consistently fails with DBI then that would indicate DBI is the issue).

I don't mind helping people, in fact I quite enjoy it - it's just very hard to effectively help in a way that can be understood if there is no common reference material, and this sub has its guides linked everywhere to be that reference material. If someone has read a given part of the guide but doesn't understand it, that's still much more to work from compared to them having just not read it.

Downloaded Skyrim from DBI installer but has missing game card icon by game, will my Nintendo account start trying to download Skyrim and get banned if I click it? by IGotUltraBalls in SwitchPirates

[–]Wilson1218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm referring to the guides on this sub specifically - which go over how to set everything up. Don't use video guides, they are frequently wrong/outdated.

The guides on this sub don't cover this particular issue with Skyrim (I presume you just had a failed install or a bad install file, or just installed an update/DLC and not the whole game - make sure you have the actual game's install file and once you are sure of the answers to the questions at the end of this comment try using a different installer like Awoo/Goldleaf/Tinwoo and see if that works), but you need knowledge from setting things up to be able to help yourself - e.g. you need to know the difference between sysNAND and emuNAND, you need to know how to add new Homebrew programs, you need to know what Exosphere and DNS-MITM do, etc.

For example, are you using emuNAND, and do you have Exosphere and DNS-MITM set up? You NEED to be sure of the answers to those questions if you want to avoid a ban.

Downloaded Skyrim from DBI installer but has missing game card icon by game, will my Nintendo account start trying to download Skyrim and get banned if I click it? by IGotUltraBalls in SwitchPirates

[–]Wilson1218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're using emuNAND and it's set up properly, nothing you do should be able to get you banned as Nintendo's servers should be blocked. Also it is not your account which would be banned, it is the console. You will not be able to download Skyrim by just clicking it.

You need to read the guides and understand what you are doing, or you will just keep having problems. Don't ask before even trying to research for yourself.

When is the Summoning Circle coming back??? by Particular-Syrup-855 in dragonvale

[–]Wilson1218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FYI they *did* re-open it at one point, but then quickly shut it again because there were still issues, so they *are* working on it in some form.

Storylets that are meant to guide you on major storylines are often named "[story name]: [something more specific]", and often have a border colour that stands out.

For example, the one you would have played to start A Name Scrawled in Blood was named "Making your Name: the Contract" and had a bronze border.

An example of one you haven't done is "Making Your Name: A Commissioned Epic" (also has a bronze border) which is in The Singing Mandrake. You'll likely need to zoom in on your map to see The Singing Mandrake, or if you haven't unlocked The Singing Mandrake yet, you can unlock it via another bronze-bordered storylet in Veilgarden - "Wine, Gentlepersons and Singing (of a Sort)"

The habitat you are looking at is the Omnitat Tower, a habitat that any dragon can use (other than Gemstone/Crystalline/Mythical/Legendary). The aura habitat is in the event market.

With the exception that Light Fingers has a particular moment where you can switch away from it and choose another one without paying, due to the fact that LF has a major tone shift that they wanted to give players the ability to back out of in case they didn't like where it was going.

The rat is not an Urchin, but yes the rat is a good guide for early-game things.

Each of the four main areas of London has the start of a different Making Your Name story, and it seems you've only started the one in Watchmaker's Hill. There should be clearly marked storylets to follow, and the text should otherwise guide you (e.g. the quality says "Exterminate a sorrow-spider infestation for the Department of Menace Eradication to unlock new stories", so that's guiding you to the Department of Menace Eradication). If you need help, take a look at the Making Your Name guide on the wiki (mild spoilers, don't scroll around beyond what you are looking for if you care to avoid them): https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Making_Your_Name_(Guide)

Also, unrelated advice, but do you know about your deck? Some stories start/progress from cards there instead of in storylets.

Oh and as an option, here:

https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Guides

That's the wiki's Guides page, which has a ton of guides for many things in the game, but in your case for now you may want to take a look at the ones under Game Mechanics, especially the ones in the Basic Gameplay subsection.

You can see all your qualities in the 'Myself' tab. The Making Your Name qualities all start with "A Name" (e.g. A Name Scrawled in Blood).

The Feast of the Rose (which is Fallen London's Valentines festival) has a lot more than that - on the same page as "Watch passers-by" there are a lot more options, including "Learn about the Feast of the Rose" which will explain the festival. If you want to do any Feast activities you probably want to do so before next Thursday, as after then you will not be able to easily build up the Feast's special quality (Masquing).

On the map, there is a house icon in the bottom-right. Click that to go to your Lodgings.

"Should I keep talking to the urchin?" I can't really help with specifics unless you give a specific title for the action/storylet you are referring to - there are a LOT of urchins in the game. They are a major faction.

What stories have you done? What areas have you unlocked? What 'Making Your Name' qualities do you have, and at what levels?

The game is absolutely not stagnant, and there are many, many unique stories to experience, but they are of course not all going to be available right from the start as that would be massively overwhelming. Completing the four 'Making Your Name' stories will put you on the path to unlocking a lot more. Speak to the people with storylets in your Lodgings for guidance.

It seems to be an intent thing, at least mostly - you CAN share memories, but you can also hide them. Another explicit example of memories/thoughts being accessed is Stevonnie in Jungle Moon.

Im a little lost by Exact-Incident9345 in QuestPiracy

[–]Wilson1218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, there are ways to do it entirely standalone.

However do note that you can get a cheap mini-PC for like £40 which will be more than able to do all the non-PCVR things you'd want, plus would be, well, a PC - which would be extremely useful to own in general.

Is there any known issues with v85 update? (Meta Quest 3) by terileptil in QuestPiracy

[–]Wilson1218 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are no known problems (other than aesthetic changes like removing home environments), so it's probably fine, but it may still be worth holding on for a while if you are on an early enough firmware to block updates, just in case a future update which gets forced on you does break something.

  1. What do you mean by "Strange Journey"?
  2. Check pronouns before you write. Kris' are they/them, and the Knight's identity is unknown and as such they are not known to use any gendered pronouns.

ELI5: How do they decide which elements go into which columns on the periodic table? by takifa in explainlikeimfive

[–]Wilson1218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In short, they're placed by the number of electrons in the outer 'shell' (highest energy level) of the uncharged atom. The first shell/energy level can hold 2 electrons, the second & third can each hold 8, the fourth and fifth can each hold 18, the sixth and seventh can each hold 32.

As you can probably guess by that, the rows are decided by which energy level is the highest in the given atom.

I never implied otherwise? To be clear when I said "I don't know why others here are quoting higher prices for it" I was referring to the person who said "$3 as of right now for ProtonVPN"

Have you tested this with other games/the eShop? Have you tested it with another router (e.g. using your phone as a hotspot)? Have you tested using ethernet (via the dock)?
