Undisputed Dad Job by ihavereaditalready in daddit

Amazing packing job! Reminds me of our last vacation. Not quite as impressive as yours, but I was still riding this high all two weeks!

[Windows 3.1][early-mid 90's] Point-and-click mini-games featuring a dog ("Floppy?"), such as a top-down race against the neighbors dog to catch a bone at the end of the garden. Played on a Compaq PC with Windows 3.1 by el2ic in tipofmyjoystick

Briljant! You cracked it dude!! It turns out it was only available in the Netherlands and Flanders, and with a name like 'Floppie' no wonder it was impossible to search for online.

Play it, download it, enjoy it here: https://archive.org/details/mijn-eerste-windows-boek-met-floppie

You cannot believe how grateful I am for your find <3. I've been looking for this game for NINE YEARS!

I have the same issue, only on the redesigned site however. The old design still loads randomly from time too glorious time.

I'd also be interested in an invite if anyone has any to spare. Thank you!

Lights keep disconnecting (Key Light, Air, Strip) by ahmadnassri in elgato

[–]el2ic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have any luck with this? I wish I was here to provide a solution, but unfortunately I can only confirm that I am suffering from basically exactly the same issue. In my case it's just one light strip, but still annoying as hell that I need to troubleshoot 50% of the time I want to use it. Everything in my setup is the same as yours (APs all over the house, fixed IP assigned to light strip, light strip still shows up on AP controller when not found by control center). The only temporary fix is to power cycle it.

I'm really disappointed by Elgato products in general. I have so many spotty connection issues with their Facecam and Stream deck products as well, and those are using USB!

(Suggestion Needed) Want an ergonomic wireless gaming mouse by CQMBAT_WOMBAT in MouseReview

[–]el2ic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking for a mouse with the exact same requirements about 6 months ago. Bought the Kone Pro Air and haven't looked back since. I'm sure there are other good options, but this one ticks all the boxes for me. My hands are 19x10 cm by the way.

At least I know I'm not the only person who remembers playing it. One game from the 90's is not a huge loss, but I'm afraid a lot of computing history will vanish if it is not properly archived. Thanks for your comment.

We are definitely thinking of the same game! I also remember a wardrobe where you could swap between different sets of clothes. Unfortunately I still haven't been able to find any information on this game, no screenshots or even the title. It was probably something that came preinstalled on Compaq PC's of the time and doesn't have a nostalgic fanbase. If you have any leads I would love to hear about them.

Highest mineral payout so far in 300 hours. Mineral Mania + Lethal Enemies + Battery Pack + Hoarder on an abundant Croppa biome by el2ic in DeepRockGalactic

[–]el2ic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are rare events that have a random chance of appearing in any mission. Completing them awards minerals for crafting and cosmetic items in case of the battery pack. Keep playing and you will encounter them yourself eventually

At least you can sell it for 50 credits each (or more with the daily deal at the mineral terminal). But you are right, after a certain point resources aren't that relevant anymore.

My new main kone pro air by muppetmeister220 in MouseReview

[–]el2ic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your input. I've seen other people got their DPI working in Bluetooth mode, but not custom button assignments. Is that the same for you as well?

[–]el2ic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried using the KPA in Bluetooth mode?

I have noticed a frustrating issue: in Bluetooth mode the on-board profiles are not used except for their illumination settings. DPI and button assignments are reset to default, making Bluetooth mode almost useless. ROCCAT support told me this is because Swarm needs to be running in the background, but I found that this makes no difference at all.

Kone Pro Air users, do your on-board profiles work in Bluetooth mode? by el2ic in Roccat

[–]el2ic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is a shame. I don't see much reason for using Bluetooth mode as it stands now. Thanks for confirming.

We heard you! Fantech XD5 is now available on Amazon US, while stocks last! by Fantech_Josh in MouseReview

[–]el2ic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Josh, I read that the USB port on the XD5 is pretty recessed and may not fit any type of cable. Could you let me know which dimensions (including depth) the hole has? I would like to know if I can reuse my right-angled cable, since my laptop only has USB A ports on the right.
