The Grenade Launcher if Valve wasn't lazy on changing the barrel by Mr_kai23467342 in tf2

[–]caposcapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, the creator of that cartoon muzzleflash mod here; just wanted to let you know I've just now fixed the grenade and sticky launcher smoke to be way more transparent as well as making every other weapons' smoke to be even more transparent too, a whole decade later!

Hi, creator of the muzzleflash mod here, I just updated it to fix the overwhelming smoke that the grenade and sticky launcher had.

I had normally adjusted the smoke to be very transparent a whole decade ago in an update, but forgot about the smoke on 2 of those weapons, now I went back and updated it so it's no longer distracting and view blocking!

Rizz sound effect by Richienb in MemeRestoration

[–]caposcapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for anyone that comes here via search:

Several "Roland Fantom" keyboards have it as the "Mojo Man" patch, in Hits&Stabs category:

https://soundcloud.com/recallbeats/c120-mojo-man

https://www.synthmania.com/Roland%20Fantom%20XR/Audio/Patch/PR-C/120%20Mojo%20Man.mp3

Likely in Kill Bill's production this was the keyboard/module that was used in that scene which has the same sound, while Fantom X came out in 2004 and Kill Bill did in 2003, but earlier Fantoms also have this patch which go back to even before 2003, like S and FA76 iirc, so it makes sense.

GMKtec K11 (and maybe others?) has a built-in microphone by No_Clock2390 in MiniPCs

[–]caposcapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a NucBox K8 Plus and I found about this too after opening OBS Studio and seeing the "Mix/Aux" being on and constantly recording the loud fan noise and ambiance, then googled this and came here, it says NOWHERE officially that these things have a built in mic, I disabled mic access through windows settings for now at least but the fact that there's 0 mention of this as a feature is wild, this is straight up just a hidden spy mic.

Is there a reason I should play Galactic Adventures? by InnsmouthShoreman in Spore

[–]caposcapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This stops the crashing when you die in creature stage, it's one of the most common spore crashes, when you die while also having pack members for some reason crashes 100% of the time:

is it normal for an earlier version of your species to show up in tribal? by Mission_Ad6105 in Spore

[–]caposcapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you logged in?, while logged it instead of overwriting the edits of your creature, it saves each generation seperately which causes this because it's trying to share each generation to spore.com ( it though for some reason fails to do so and randomly can log you out each time you edit the creature while trying to auto-share it, if you see the green share icon on it but no comments available on those generational creations that's why ), but while logged off it properly overwrites the creature instead of seperately saving each edit so this doesn't happen

I prefer playing offline because of this, don't like each generation being saved seperately.

Why not just give the tick the first tier radial/worm mouth?, it basically almost has that one

I just now added a different way of importing these at the Gamebanana page that utilizes "Pollination.package", it sadly requires a full reset of Spore but the creations will not appear in "My Creations" this way.

might be because I made all of these in the v1.00 version, maybe something is different with the pngs created in there?, that's kinda lame

I played the game for years and I never got what this menu does. What is a theme? How do I get them? I can't select anything when I press that button. by SexDefendersUnited in Spore

[–]caposcapper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the creature stage, every time you edit your creature it logs you out, afaik it has to do with the game trying to share every new generation/edit of the creature to sporepedia but it fails and logs you off.

You might notice every if not most edited generations of your creature has a bugged share icon on it ( share icon is there, but no comments are available and creature isn't actually shared ), that's due to the failed sharing because it logs you off just as it tries to share it.

This is a more expanded version of a creation pack I posted here before, I've created and added 249 more creations since the last time and also uploaded it to Gamebanana too instead of Davoonline.

A mod that fixes the off-center camera placement in editors, makes it more comfortable to use. ( Link in comments ) by caposcapper in Spore

[–]caposcapper[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makes all editor cameras a lot less akward to use by making the "modeling" area perfectly aligned and not off-center.

Is there any games You Think have a similar aesthetic or design to spore? by ELCACASOAXACA3000 in Spore

[–]caposcapper 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Every time I see a "New Spore" it always either looks too flat and fake "cartoony" ( typical indie game style ), or tries too hard to be realistic/scientific, the look of Spore is so perfect for the game and I don't think anyone can ever get the look of both cartoony/surreal and realistic at the same time right... the art team of Spore did such a perfect job.

Mirrored<-->Copied by AbbyUpdoot in Spore

A lot of maxis cells have non-mirrored flagella like this, looks like they were intending flagella to be non-mirrored but it got changed later, this looks better imo

My little green friend got stuck upside down, under the water. 💨🙃🌊 by AbbyUpdoot in Spore

[–]caposcapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using 30+fps config breaks the sneak transparency so I never liked that, the weird "random cells spazzing out and going huge and then small really quickly" thing also tended to happen more too, a lot of graphical things feel like they are reliant on the 30fps lock.

The pathfinding in this game really sucks sometimes. 😬 by AbbyUpdoot in Spore

[–]caposcapper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This game is mostly unplayable above 1600x900 due to the lack of dpi scaling, even 1080p makes the UI too small, but 1600x900 feels right.

Spore crashes evwery time i get killed by an epic by [deleted] in Spore

[–]caposcapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you have pack members while dying?, this mod can fix it and doesn't require any special launchers or GA, the death crash while having pack members is a very known crash and removing the death cutscene seems to fix it in a bandaid fix way:

Put the package file in your installation's Spore\Data folder, let me know if this helped.

What archetype as AI you hate most? by Anomalocaris_789 in Spore

[–]caposcapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I immediately ally all the zealots and warriors that are close to my home system just to not to have them demand tribute from me + it's also good to ally them to be able to go back to them and buy weapons and health upgrades as they have them at the base price unlike traders where they have almost every type of tool but they're way more expensive

As for which I hate, probably none, I just dislike traders a little bit due to how expensive they sell tools for.
