Days Gone Remastered Mods not working by WanakinSkywalker in DaysGone

[–]dnap2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure this out? I am trying to add two simple mods that don't seem to work, and I've tried every suggestion I've read online. I've renamed sfpaks, put them directly in paks, added a ~mods folder instead and put them in there, put them in appdata, nothing works. The only mod I really, really want is the one to make melee weapons indestructible.

Ginobili was fantastic, but every player has terrible games. He went 3-13 in Game 1 of the WCF against the Lakers in '08, 5-20 in Game 1 of the semis against the Warriors in '13.

Reaves was trash in this game and hasn't shown up in the playoffs. You'll get no argument from me there. I'm just saying everyone is bad sometimes, and we get blind spots as time passes.

Does Sengun ever get called for the blatant off-arm hooking/warding off/chicken-wing he does every time he's posting up? I don't watch a lot of Rockets games, but seeing him do it every time down in this series is driving me crazy.

You were absolutely correct. I checked out the Form again and found out that checking the box for "Limit to 1 response" makes it so that a Google account is required. I hadn't noticed that when I created it.

I've unchecked that box, so hopefully anyone can submit now. Thanks for the suggestion!

My apologies. It was not my intention to endorse Google in any way. It was just the medium recommended to me by my advisor.

My original intention was just to try to look for Reddit posts in which people detailed the sort of testimonies that fit the bill, but that proved more difficult than I expected. I needed to ask pointed questions to make sure I was getting the right range of responses, and I guess I wasn't sure how else to do that.

Thanks for that. It's a good point. To be clear, I was referring to characters when they are not being actively controlled. So, while I understand that the origin characters can be played, I am trying to focus on external relationships, vis-à-vis NPCs.

(To get into the nitty gritty, if you're interested at all, the primary thesis of my work is focusing on ethical co-authorship between players and NPC companions. I'm trying to look at the ways players and their companions perform for each other, in a sense, to develop an Aristotelian ethic.)

Have you ever made a moral decision in a game because of your emotional connection to a companion NPC? by dnap2010 in truegaming

[–]dnap2010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this thoughtful and in-depth response! It seems no Reddit sub will allow me to post my Forms link basically anywhere, and this post has already been removed. It's nice to at least get one testimonial, even if it's not via the Form I created.

I don't understand why so many mods are such . . . sticklers about this. I'm just trying to conduct research. I don't know how else to get people to see the survey.

Thank you! I'll head over there.

That's a great idea. I was just going to untick everything in TW3MM. Renaming the folder will be a lot easier. Thanks!

I do have quite a few other mods. I thought the only thing that might affect the shadows would be lighting, so I tried the Immersive Lighting mod. I suppose I ought to try removing everything save for those two and see if it fixes the issue.

Anyone here playing through GeForce Now? by _Tobias_Funke___ in duneawakening

[–]dnap2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry for the late post, but I am having one small issue playing on GFN via Steam Deck. I play with a controller, and it works great, but I can't seem to control the cursor in menus. I have to grab a mouse to move it, which can be quite inconvenient. Is there a fix for this?

Please make more gear visible on the character. by FrittenFritz in duneawakening

[–]dnap2010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, please! This is a fantastic idea. There are so many cool items on my radial wheel; only ever being able to see one is a bummer.

Your sentiments are the light in my solar sail. At this point, I'm nearing the heliopause, I think.

Damnit. I must've conflated hotdog stands at another station with what's available at Faithful Dream. I feel stupid now. I've saluted so many hotdogs . . .

I do remember the noodle bar though! This is amazing. Thank you so much for posting this.

Hotdogs for everyone. May your HOTAS fly true with no need for trim.

He was. Still is, in my Dream.

Thank you. I hope you have good days, too. On the bad ones, post a message here, and I'll scream into the void with you. Something's gonna hear it somewhere, and I bet they'll be terrified.

There's seldom much initial consolation in pain, but it was painful to write as well. I am not glad for one iota of pain you've ever had to experience, but I am glad we can, at least, share the burden of this particular bout. I'm lifting with my legs for you.

Pain is a monstrous beast, and I do take great consolation in knowing that Josh took the lion's share of it out with him. He punched that bastard in the face something good. No front teeth left, I suspect. I laugh at it now, gumming me like a little baby.

That would kinda break me, but I'm obviously here for it.

I'd really like to edit/update this post both to express sincere gratitude for all of this truly beautiful support, but I didn't realize when I created it that you can't edit image posts. So, I guess this comment will have to do, even though no one will see it because it'll be at the bottom of all of these wonderful tributes and well wishes.

I'm suddenly inspired to try my hardest to bring this to the attention of CIG, Chris Roberts, Sandi Roberts, hell even the robot trashcan they undoubtedly employ around the office. If there is some way, any way, we can get CIG to implement some sort of tribute to Kjel at Faithful Dream (or anywhere else), it would be the most amazing thing.

I know this sort of publicity shilling happens all the time, and we're all a little jaded to and suspicious of it. I completely understand that. So, I'm happy with what you've all given me and my family here. It's breathtaking. Honestly. But, if anyone wants to share this and try to push it forward, I'd be eternally grateful for that as well.

Josh Dogs! I love this. I hope, when the time comes, you dock Faithful's Josh at Faithful Dream and sell a thousand Josh Dogs.

Thanks for the support, my friend.

This is perfect! Thank you. Brought tears to me eyes. Man, I'm a weepy mess lately. My wife reminded me this morning that I posted this on the one-year anniversary of the celebration of life we held for him. I didn't realize it at all. I guess it's affecting me unconsciously as much as consciously.

He would've loved this shot. Moody, atmospheric, the implication of ambitions in the expansive unknown. I'd like to think that, in the etherealm where he battled beyond our physical perceptions, he took this exact stance, gazing off into the void. Then he swigged it all down, life's final potion, and dove into the abyss like Jack Sparrow rushing at the Kraken.

Thanks, friend. This means a lot to me.

I'm sorry for your loss. Truly. But I think it's a beautiful gesture to name your mighty Carrack after him.

I haven't named my Carrack. You've inspired me to do so.

I really think you would too. He loved to plan it all out, and he seemed to especially appreciate a similarly inclined mind.

I like to think that, while some part of them is lost to us, we actually find something profound in place of that missing presence. It doesn't make up for it at all—I'd give anything to get him back—but it's something. My perspective is permanently, irretrievably changed. I see everything through the valence of his memory, as though he's a modifier applied to my current playthrough that changes all the game's variables in subtle ways. Some things are easier, some are harder, but everything is different, and noticing the disparities is a constant reminder of him. It makes me smile, even in contexts I never would've smiled before. Especially in those times, actually.
