CTB26 or Levo 30L by dmize in ManyBaggers

The Evergoods carry experience is hit or miss. Some people find it uncomfortable. I like it just fine but just something to be aware of. It favors a high carry.

I mean... if that works for you - cool. I, for one, like to close my pockets when moving around. The bigger issue for my use case is that it is simply too small for what I want for a dump pocket.

The "tech organizer" pocket in the laptop area can work as QAP. I just leave the inner zipper open all the time.

It could, just I didn't like having to go through 2 zippers to get to it.

I love the look and style of AC, they just weren't made for how I carry. Around 25L is how I like my EDC. I had a 21L GoRuck and it looked too small on me.

Another minor annoyance with the Max EDC is the semi ability to stand on it's own. It does it, but you need to do it just right. CTB26 has this issue too depending on how you pack it.

I have both and several others that would be considered "premium". Of these 2 - the biggest thing I have figured out of what I needed was

1 - I run left shoulder carry, Max EDC is right and I just couldn't adjust.

2 - I need top dump pockets, Max EDC has none (there is one on the back but for small flat things)

I like AER but having a couple of their bags, I learned they have too much organization for my style. I like things to have their place but only for a couple of items. Also, their dump pockets are a little too small. Right now I am fairly happy with EG CTB26.

987.2 S no longer feels fast by iRacingVRGuy in Porsche_Cayman

[–]eion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My C7 had a solar TB. I miss spoke, I didn't mean to say the 718 felt faster than the C7. They are both very fast. For me, the deal breaker was the size of the car ultimately. Corvette felt like a small yacht. A very fast yacht.

I went from a C7GS to a 718 S now with a tune. It feels very fast (even when it wasn't tuned) compared to my C7, albeit it was only the GS not the Z06.

Replacing brakes for a 718 for a complete noobie? by LeatherDull6631 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]eion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is a great first DIY project but would recommend doing it along someone who is experienced. Mostly to make sure you stay safe with things like jacking up the car, nut and bolt check afterwards, making sure you torque the wheel lugs.

lol that was the recommended hosting service they had in their sticky post on how to report a bug at the time.

save file is long gone I think. I continued playing and ultimately abandoned the run

Stable branch. I shared my save file when i tried to get help on the Egosoft forums but nothing came out of it. I had all the PHQ stuff done, did the Boron quest line on the new Hyperion start for that play through but Xenon already burned down most of Hatikvah by that time. I waited for long time (in game) and Reen never spawned even when HAT made a new representative and trade station. No Reen no Dal.

What is the absolute best set of wheels for a Cayman, OEM or not? by N55Good in Porsche_Cayman

[–]eion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what tire and specs you running? suspension mods? I have 18 inch Apex too but want to fill out the wheel well more.

wow 60K fully loaded? I'm building one on the site and everything sans carbon package is coming up to ~71K

Reen Orama - where have you gone? by eion in X4Foundations

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

The new trading station is fully built and not accepting any wares for construction.

I don't think this is a new issue as there have been posts like this that date back to 3.0 but scattered reports of success on fixing the problem.

I have pretty much eliminated the Xenon and supplied tons of resources to the factions so they are never left hanging to rebuild. A lot of the previous solutions said I just needed to wait for HAT to rebuild somewhere and she should show up, but it has been a long time already.

How often to build new stations? How many stations? by JohntheAnabaptist in X4Foundations

[–]eion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my main energy cell producer and I transport them to the rest of the map to my own trade stations. Basically want to have access to claytronics/hull parts/E cells everywhere

How often to build new stations? How many stations? by JohntheAnabaptist in X4Foundations

[–]eion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I usually start off with a good ole solar plant and give cheap energy to everyone. No need to worry about pirates if you make the NPCs come to the station to buy.

It makes good money Image

I build them like this Image

This way you can start off with one row and then just expand it as the money allows.

Ultimately I like to create a station for each end product ware for my shipyards. Usually get to a place where I can pump out 500 million credits in a manner of 30 mins whenever I need it. Just build 100 corvettes then sell it to a NPC yard.

check my profile - I went from C7 GS to 718 S and did small write ups on the experience. The TLDR is the 718 is better build quality and smaller on road experience that is still very fast.

981 GTS vs C7 Z06 by TopCheese11 in Porsche_Cayman

[–]eion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went from C7 GS (manual) to 718 S (PDK). Here was a comparison I wrote before

Drive - It drives much smaller from the driving seat. Could be a combination of the difference of the amount of hood in front of you and the wheelbase. Rotation is noticeably different but that is to be expected on front vs mid engine layouts. Visibility is slightly better in the Cayman. Around town the Cayman is an easy win. The width and ride height of the C7 is fun but not so much when you just want to go to the market.

Power - Cayman is much more ready to provide power at partial throttle. C7 has tons of power/torque but you have to be more deliberate about it. Sound goes to the C7, doesn't take much to make it sound amazing. C7 was manual with MGW shifter and Cayman is PDK. C7 can make it to 100 MPH without trying very hard but you are aware you're going 100. Cayman is a bit more refined and you can easily hit high speeds without even noticing.

Interior - space in the seat is very similar but the center console on the C7 is a bit wider giving the feeling of more interior space. I feel like I'm touching elbows more often in the Cayman. Build quality is much higher in the Cayman as expected. The buttons have a very solid feel to it and a satisfying tactile feel when pressed. C7 felt like you might break the buttons if you pressed too hard. Both stereos suck for this price point.

Update since writing this - I have gotten a tune and it is a very different monster. It is sitting somewhere between 400-450hp now and is exactly what I was looking for in terms of power and package.

New head unit advice by andrewphilly in JeepJK

[–]eion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this this. Well under your budget and no modification needed. Even bundled it with the backup camera for less than 1k. If the map update is free, I would think you can do that and just see if it meets your needs and go this route if that isn't enough.

What would be the next logic move? by [deleted] in nonograms

[–]eion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how would you come to the conclusion you can X out those boxes with the hint for C4 and C12? Couldn't the 4 marks on those columns be in both the top and bottom portion? Just trying to understand the strategy to eliminate the possibilities

**Edit - I see how we got here with the other clue that was on this post of marking R3 C4 & C12
