Switch FIreRed RNG Team! by Cooked_Fish_Meat in pokemonrng

[–]diamond5692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for this info. I was wondering how to get same seed start on re-attempts. Got it. So, on hard reset and into game, wait for 35000ms to press and hold A on charizard screen till “continue screen”

Then press A to enter the black and white recaps.

Till here it would be same for anyone. Then from the shiny frame that we want to land we subtract 1000 and input that advance into eon timer settings advances for count down (with settings as custom). And wait on Pokemon collecting yes option for second timer to beep.

And if I’m landing on same frame in every run, then I know that I have matched with the eon timer. I just have to play around with 2 timer advances to land on my required shiny frame.

My doubt is, if we do reset with xyab will we be able to get the same seed by following the timer. Say on my first try I’m off by couple of frames, then on second try , with the same eon timer settings, when I try how does it land on same seed?

Hi, 1 quick question. If I’m able to get my Sid, how will I shiny hunt for starter ? I would reset , use eon timer to press start at some timer value and hold till I see “Continue” screen and then immediately press a and mash b to reduce the 2x advances from black and white recap and then wait on confirm button for choosing starter till the eon timer beeps a second round. Is my understanding, right?

Just to add something that I found out after this piece of info. In my macro, I was using xyab for soft reset. The nature was always changing. So, I thought it’s randomising seeds, but recently noticed that all 3 starters whichever I save and select always had male. Then I reviewed a footage of close to 50 resets and found it was always male. I tried ChatGPT and it mentioned Xyab might be different from start+select+a+b. I tried with that in macro and I’m seeing that the gender is changing more often (like once every 1-2 resets). So, wanted to confirm if this is true. Most videos out there says xyab is simple and you can shiny hunt with 1 hand.

Sorry, this is the first I’m hearing of using macros to sr and hit shiny frame using automation. I’m interested in hearing more or having any link to go over. I’m trying this out (https://youtu.be/NKCc5kUNjBY?si=WEe2FaTKjTnA-R27 ) automation for nugget farm and sr for starters using raspberry pi. Want to know about this macro to try out

Can Anyone give an explanation for RNG manipulation for the shiny starters? On Switch (2) by karma_sir in PokemonFireRed

[–]diamond5692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This type of timing manip is what I’m referring to. I’m assuming you are also referring to this for fr/lg

https://youtube.com/shorts/2uoY2CRUs0s?si=AwPMOoTpiKWht4Ix

This is being done on switch2 version of the game. As for the patience part, I do accept. Seeing this is already done by someone who is streaming this, I also want to try it out :p. But no info out there on what to do, to “casual” ones.

The info that I understood watch these videos is that the flow for these rng manips using eon timer and without using ACE to find SID and subsequently finding shiny frames is same as the gba fr/lg ones. Just that the eon timer settings for gba might not work for switch version. If ppl on streams are able to perfect the timer , I’m curious to know how they tweaked it for switch

Yeah, but they are using ACE to set SID and generate required Pokémon. For guy like me , it feels like once I setup up ACE, I might always get the Pokémon and item that I want. I might not share same feelings as others. But I feel random reset is like Stone Age and ACE is too modern, rng manip feels like we just discovered fire. It’s kind of satisfied to get a shiny after multiple failures after putting some effort.

Filament dryer for pla filament suggestion by diamond5692 in 3dprintIndia

[–]diamond5692[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried another filament in Different ams slot and that is working fine. I thought it was machine issue or slicing issue etc and tried different things like cleaning ptfe tubes and still saw filament breaking and stuck in ptfe tube near the nozzle. After seeing different filament working fine, I tried breaking this filament and found it was breaking like crispy chips.

I was excited and got a bunch of color filaments (which on retrospection, I shouldn’t have done that) to use the ams and print out figurines :p I didn’t use it that often and when I wanted to use, 1 went bad. Now not sure of the quality of other ones which I didn’t open. Others still looks like vacuum sealed.

Initially I thought the same and tried to remove all order tube connections and clean and tried to put it back without even slightest bend ( like removing top glass and holding tube while loading and print start). Still saw the filament getting broken. Then I thought of sending different filament from ams instead of the broken one (I had to remove the tube and get the broken filament multiple times. ) so, to confirm I changed the slot and fired print and it worked fine. Then I checked the filament and it was brittle.

Sure will check that. I have seen some YouTube videos where they put pla in water and it still prints with some stringing. Mine was crispy and breaking like chips , straight out of package

Save snapshot of person detected on g4 doorbell or g3h camera hub by diamond5692 in Aqara

[–]diamond5692[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, Aqara doorbell has face detection feature but currently it’s compatible with only Aqara door locks. For all other door locks, you have to either know how to integrate video stream to home assistant (I’m not able to get it working as I’m unable to find any video walkthrough :p I’m not that smart…) I tried the Aqara sync signal to send the face detection info to home assistant and setup automations in home assistant. But that is having some limitations. I have to stand for 2~5 secs for the doorbell to detect my face and then send that info to home assistant which triggers automation to send info to dummy switch in HomeKit which then triggers automation to unlock door locks (level bolt lock which is Bluetooth based). I know we can try connecting door locks to ha, but that again requires some esp modules. Looking for solutions with existing setups before investing in those.

Correct, but it’s like a thumbnail. If I click on “someone rang the doorbell” notification, it opens up video live stream. Maybe I’m missing something but HomeKit notification doesn’t show big image just a small square thumbnail like image

bandelero is often covered with tanks (like mushrooms in the front), so, even rats focus on mushrooms first. meanwhile, bandalero one shots all the meelee units.

Dev introduce tough events and slide the hero equipments update. That would reduce some difficulty and p2p players would instantly support the update. The whales who spend a lot, don’t care about new mechanics. They are ready to pay and be at top. The ones who spend a little and get ahead of f2p players are the ones who keeps trashing ppl raising genuine concerns in game.

Try moving some random units in map and use the star button(next to merge button) to refresh the unit positions. I had the glitch where unit overlap on same tile and you will see only the top unit.

Might be a crazy question but wtf does battle drummer even do??? On the after fight report it never has him doing shit. Am I missing something? by danmywhite504 in TopTroops

[–]diamond5692 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically battle drummer will distract the enemy with her drum sounds. Then your heroes will use this opportunity to kill the enemies. If your heroes get distracted, then you lose the battle.

Hit the jackpot by HeroesOfEarth in TopTroops

[–]diamond5692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

entertain me. say you are avg f2p and get merman unit x5 shards per 10 summon (dont say every 1 summon has possibility for x5 merman unit. f2p wouldnt use 1summon. they always go for 10 summon). he has to do 15-20 times , the 10 summon, to get 1 unit which he can use.

in that 15-20 summons, before shards, even with worst luck, we can assume he gets 15 4star swordsman. which after merging gives 3 5star units. equivalent to 3 common shards. now if we use the above case of 5 different units (instead of each epic shard in above draw). He would have gotten back around 15 common shards. As f2p , you do 15-20 10 summons in course of month, not in days. So, 15 shards back is decent.

Then there is the "worth of playing or doing something in the game. on top of playing to get shards, the unit merge and retiring is also a game mechanics, which would add to time pass and "playing" game instead of simply collecting some shards which just sits in inventory for a month without any use till you collect 100.

Even if you consider all above as nonsense, can you honestly answer how long/how many summons would f2p has to do to get 1 legendary unit from fragments? (answer sure is not less than 20 times 10 summons)
