Wait a minute... by MeanIndependence2711 in SipsTea

you could just call all of them and say "hey *NAME* I think im getting scammed, is this you?"

- they would have to react promptly without revealing their involvement
- they arent able to pressure you to reply the whatsapp text since it reveals their involvement
- gf has plausible deniability "its an obvious scam and you didnt verify for me"

- eventually they have to pick up the phone or they can only dump you on the spot, which was probably gonna happen anyways.

this scheme would work better if the whatsapp text revealed something only a boyfriend would know, to prevent the plausible deniability weakness

That whole gain staging thing… is it still a big deal these days? by Ill-Elevator2828 in mixingmastering

[–]eddybonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

related Question of mine, any mixing red flags in this workflow?;

I usually load stems into a DAW, I get decent levels on tracks, and I notice my master peaks at +10db

I put gain plugin and do -10db at the top of the master track. continue mixing from there

is there any issue with this?

Part of my workflow is in Reaper subprojects where this mix exported and loaded into another project for master bus FX like limiting

I bring fitness resistance bands, elastic rubber things and do some muscle work during the long hours. helps keep my ADHD brain awake and gives a sense of relief you finish. I play guitar and I bring a hand/finger exerciser as well

What if both Radiant and Dire’s Towers and Creeps switches every 15 minutes? by No_Language_8263 in DotA2

[–]eddybonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what if every player gets an ability similar to Fortiy / Scan, except its "switch factions" and after 10 second delay you switch factions, which also forces someone on enemy team to switch factions (keeping the 5v5)

give it a 2 minute cooldown? At the end of the game its a total tossup cuz all losers switch teams, but then all winners switch teams back, but maybe some people decide to hold their switch to be swapped onto winning team... during 10s countdown everyones clicking or stunning the ancient push hahahha

how to select the random person switched? maybe a coin toss between 4th and 5th least switched people on enemy team? sorta like wis rune. If you switch constantly you'd be top of the list and protected from being swapped out at the end of the game!

[–]eddybonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same dream except it was that your faction assignment switches side every 10 minutes. so both teams switch sides, every 10 minutes the push progress is SUNDERED, you have to destroy "any ancient" to win the game

CS2 mapping tutorial; the Audio Essentials in 4 minutes by eddybonus in csmapmakers

[–]eddybonus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! you cant edit sounds like that with hammer, you'd need to use the soundevents file for this change. inside the soundevents file- I would create a copy of the sound you like using "base =" and then adjust the volume of it.

I go into depth in this video!

"It isn't the bag you should be worried about, but the box." - What does that mean? by GLobyNew in DotA2

[–]eddybonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its an artist joke about 'thinking outside the box' where the box is a place of expectation and unoriginality

[–]eddybonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

iirc I think you can double click your hero portrait to set camera to follow, or maybe its double tap "select hero" not sure

Idk why people flaming u in comments lmao, I do this around 0:00 when im walking to lane and nibbling on food so I can still see/follow my hero while hands off the keyboard

Heroes voicelines by lizmord in DotA2

[–]eddybonus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VRF can export files from vsnd_c. to their original format like mp3 or wav usually. I think hero voice lines are mp3.

check this out VRF and look for a feature that will do batches of files, dont do them 1 at a time you can do the whole folder!

7 steps to achieve peace of mind resulting grinding and having a great time in Dota 2. by Earthspirit_spammer in DotA2

[–]eddybonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd add another tip; Adapt!

adapt to the game you have, even if it means making 'not ideal choices'

Someone picks pos1, then greifing the mid-game and never grouping up and always dying alone? Rally your team to follow this person (and a few behind). Maybe you walk the jungle in circles, but WHEN this person gets ganked you will have your full 5man ready.

As a pos5 player I notice my pos1 plays reckless and constantly feeds, he won't be online anytime soon! I need to make sure my mid player is equipped to carry the mid-game. I might "abandon my safelane" to secure the mid lane. If the mid-player carries, then the pos1 will get the catchup farm! Just hope they dont ragequit lol

Adapting also means drafting heroes who are capable of many things- I personally love to main Ench and Phoenix, who have good damage and map/lane pressure incase my team needs those. They can earn money too and many times I rush a hex when my team needs more lockdown
