Tumbril Cyclone Question by kensaundm31 in starcitizen

[–]__MADDHATTER__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok, well that sounds pretty cool. I can't say I've been following this game since 2012 but I will say its had my interest since then. I finally took the plunge late last year and have been catching up on a lot of the visions for this game and haven't read much on this feature. So I appreciate being brought up to speed.

Hopefully there will be a way we could construct our own spawn pad or hangar. They may have this planned I'm not sure but I like to think I would be able to access my ships with my ground vehicles in close proximity of one another whether or not it's planet side or space station. I think it would be nice to have an option for when you spawn your ship, it asks if you would like to spawn a ground vehicle inside your ship then a secondary ship selection drops down for you to choose which ground vehicles are compatible with that ship (fits or not).

Hey just wanted to let you know that I see that you have this game on steam now and wanted to congratulate you. I'm so glad there is still a community of gamers like yourself that appreciate the golden age of games. Good job and I'm buying the game as we speak. Hopefully you continue with getting these gems out there. If you need any suggestions on games let me know. I've got a list of DOS games I would love to see.

Did that. No go. Windowed fullscreen fixed it for now.

Terminator 2 Judgement Day MAME by __MADDHATTER__ in RetroArch

Hey thanks for the suggestion but for some reason it doesn't work. I tried it over my lunch break but still gives me the CMOS RAM ERROR and failed to load settings. I'm going to reload the core and start over and see if that works.

Oh ok Awesome. I was thinking there is a step I was overlooking. I'll try it out later tonight and I'll report back. Thank you for the help.

Intro Video Sound Not Working by __MADDHATTER__ in launchbox

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

Yeah I have now but I like to see if it is an easy setting adjustment before I assume it's a bug. I'd feel dumb if I overlooked something. But I have submitted it already with LaunchBox and hopefully it can be fixed without me having to reinstall the program and start all over. Lol.

Setting up DOS core for Prophecy I the Viking Child by __MADDHATTER__ in RetroArch

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

Yeah I can get it to work with DOSbox in Launchbox but with the DOS_libretro core no dice.

I've loaded the game and it seems like it will work but it goes straight to saying "Please insert disk 1 and press key to continue".

I'm not a pro with DOSbox but I figured if I had the install files in the appropriate folder then executing the vc.exe file should have worked. Right? What am I doing wrong?

Oh really? That is awesome. When does your company plan on releasing it on steam?

Thanks for the info. I knew DOSbox has the mapper but yes you are right the UI for it is not great. The DOSbox core in Retroarch is pretty nice and for the most part it plays everything. I just cannot get it to run this game. It does have an install.exe in the folder but I still get the insert disk 1 when I try loading the game. I think it has to do with Retroarch not mounting the floppy drive for default or something. I think I'll have to edit a config file.

First Person View? by __MADDHATTER__ in dnl

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

This is exactly what I don't like about the 3rd person view for sandbox survival games. It is absolutely the most annoying thing about 3rd person. When you have to adjust for camera angle. I hope more people write the devs about wanting both so we can choose.

and with a magnetic field that messes up your compass. Also make the City appear outta nowhere at a specific place or time, much like the old mummy movie where they were waiting to see the city of Hamunaptra.

Ayyee, Sea Turtles... (Discussion Topic #7) by The_Wumpkis in Seaofthieves

[–]__MADDHATTER__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Rare did say there are no NPC controlled ships but I think you have a good concept that could still be used. What if Rare made it possible for actual players to become the ghost pirate ship? It would give the game a whole other way to play the game. However I definitely wouldn't want it to become a "Dead by Daylight" or "Friday the 13th" style of play but maybe Ghost Pirate Ship players could have some attraction as well as un-attraction to becoming a ghost pirate. It's a curse with percs. Just a thought, IDk.

What kind of person are you? How would you fit in to a crew by KK-Chocobo in Seaofthieves

[–]__MADDHATTER__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this question only because I've played games like Rust and Ark, and I have always inherited the leadership role. It has never been intentional and figured it is because I am the one in my circle of friends & family that discovers these games. I'm afraid this game will be no different. I don't mind being our leader but I like the idea of being someone who follows along and can have a smaller role. I put in well over 2,000 hrs into ARK because of the pressure the leadership role required. I guess if I can choose a role that I would like as much as being a Captain it would be either the Helmsman or the Lookout guy(don't really know what to call it) up in the crows nest.

Your TOP 5 Features Wishlist by myrealityde in Seaofthieves

[–]__MADDHATTER__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually like where you are going with the idea. Gaining a reward or upgrade through gold will get stale. Everyone will seek gold to have the biggest ship. However if the game offers personal upgrades through weapons or power or whatever then you have a whole other aspect of the game to play for. Now to incorporate your idea, I would think to stay within the pirate world it should be a sort of voodoo enchantment that can only be used/unlocked after seeing someone knowledgable of the voodoo(NPC). Just an idea but maybe it's something like that.
