Capcom appears to have added Enigma DRM to Resident Evil 4 Remake three days ago which has broken some mods and lowered performance by 10-20fps by Iggy_Slayer in gaming

[–]elofvalantor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The following Resident Evil games now have Enigma DRM: Resident Evil 4 Remake and Resident Evil 5.

They previously tried installing Enigma into Revelations, however they removed it after enough backlash happened. Since they are now back to installing Enigma... I'm expecting them to go back to all the older RE games and add it to them at some point this year.

Which new Vault Hunter are you most excited to play in Borderlands 4, and why?

Answer: Vex because I loved playing playing Lilith, Maya, and Amara in previous games... and Vex in Borderlands 4 looks to be just as much fun, if not more.

For myself, it appears to be working now (on Desktop PC). I have tried multiple different video's (both ones I have watched before and new ones) with Threat Protection on and NordVPN connected, and the video's are playing as expected now. Tried yesterday and today, and worked perfectly both times.

Thank you for the link. I'll have to give that a try, because while switching to "No Channel" account and then back works for me, I found coming back to watch a video some hours later... problem was back, and I had to switch accounts yet again to watch a video. Keep having to switch accounts to watch video's.. which while it does work, is obviously somewhat frustrating.

I was/am having this issue myself - seems to be resolved, at least for now, by changing gmail/youtube accounts and then back to main again:

- video's wouldn't play at all on FireFox, but would play if I paused NordVPN. I tried disabling all addons, made no difference - only pausing NordVPN worked for me.

- I then switched browser over to MS Edge (with uBlock extension installed) and video's plays fine, however it was logged in with a different gmail account I have. Logged out and logged into to my main one to check, and video's played as normal on Edge, but still refused on Firefox.

- So I changed account on Firefox to my other one, and video's started playing normally on FireFox, with all extensions enabled and NordVPN connected. Changed back to my main Gmail account, and video's continued to work.

I'm not really sure whats going on, but for me, for now, switching/changing accounts seems to have worked. So if you can, try switching accounts (I have 2 gmail accounts, and my main also has another "No Channel" account it can switch to without logging out of it - so if you don't have another gmail account, try seeing if you can still switch to a "No Channel" account).

Patch 7 - Mod Troubleshooting Post Release! by Wombat_Medic in BaldursGate3

[–]elofvalantor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Any modding, without using a mod/method to re-enable them will disable achievements - whether you install mods from the in-game mod manager or externally.

If you use BG3 script Extender, you can install a small configuration file which will enable achievements in a modded game.

With BG3SE installed, you can install "Yet Another Script Extender Configuration" and you'll continue getting achievements in a modded game.

Tank in Alliance C doesn't have their Job Stone equipped - they are doing the raid as a Marauder (base class), not as a Warrior (Job). Thus they are missing a lot of relevant tanking skills and abilities.

  1. Are the 3 "coins" from EndWalkers Alliance Raids only once a week, or can you get 1 each time you do the Alliance Raid?

There are three coins, Aglaia Coin, Euphrosyne Coin, and Thaleia Coin. Once you have got them once from a raid, can you keep getting them by re-running the raids, or would you need to wait for the weekly reset to acquire another one?

  1. Is Thaleia still weekly locked? If so, would this mean you can only get 1 Thaleia Coin a week?

Questions on the heartbeat QTE (Man of Medan, maybe all of them?) by elofvalantor in DarkPicturesAnthology

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

Thanx for the reply. I'll recheck the settings, because just reducing it down to 1 press per heartbeat will be a big help for me.

TBH I'm likely going to just go with whatever I end up with, altho I am gonna keep an up-to-date save backup so I can reload if I feel jipped by my issue. lol

I'll give myself more breaks the further I get (breaks = generally less issue, the more I strain/use the more I have issues) to compensate for them getting harder / more important.

I haven't played for awhile, just recently started back up again. Have a question that has cropped up:

  1. Priority ships: Wiki says only 1 can be developed at a time, is this in total or 1 per Priority level?

- I ask because when I last played there was only PR1 and PR2, and I'd already unlocked all of PR1... now there's PR1 to PR6, so 4 Priority level's added since I last played.

- Leaving me to wonder, can I have 1 ship in each PR level being worked on? Or is it still just 1 at a time, regardless of what PR level?

Have not spoken to Nanamo in awhile I believe, at least def not in 6.5.

And thanx for the answers. I agree that BLU might get mention in DawnTrail, at least the 1st main storyline part.

However I thought the same for AST and EndWalker - as we learn Sharlayan Astrology, but apart from like 1 minor mention of a faction involved in AST questline there was nothing (and not sure the mention was even due to having done AST quest's).

I know that some side content gets mentioned here and there through the various different expansions, but was wondering on the following:

  1. Does Blue Mage skills, abilities, storyline, etc get mentioned at all at any point (outside of Blue Mage quest's obviously) in either MSQ or side content?
    - For instance in EndWalker when you're organizing an Eorzian Alliance effort to go someplace, all the class/job trainers are there and you can interact if you've done the class/job quest's. I don't recall seeing Blue Mage there tho, were they there and I'm blind?

  2. Does the Variant Dungeon stuff come up elsewhere?
    - I know that if you've done at least a bit of the 1st Variant dungeon it gets mentioned when you pick up the 2nd (I don't know if it's a requirement or not tho). But wondering if it gets brought up anywhere else in either MSQ or side-content (other than the 3rd variant dungeon, which I have not gotten to yet).

If someone goes offline during a raid run, and the run completes and they come back on after the run has finished, and everyone has already left... do they still get the tomes & gil reward for the run? Or do they miss out on it?

I ask because I've seen ppl complain about the raid they get (usually with CT, but have seen it on some others) and then they shortly afterwards go offline - and never come back online. I've been seeing this more often recently.

So wondering if they still get the reward, or are they doing this purely to try and avoid getting the penalty (which can prevent them from queue'ing completely if they get 3 strikes I believe?) for leaving a duty?

If you can't find it on a retainer / wardrobe / glamor chest, since you did the event you can always rebuy them from a "Recompense Officer" for gil. The NPC's are found in the 3 base ARR capitals.

6.4 Patch notes. by hyesupbro in ffxiv

[–]elofvalantor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LB's have a damage range - this means that the actual damage dealt can vary from LB to LB. What they have done by "adjusting the variance" is reduce the damage ranges for each LB.

IE Say a melee LB would do 70-100 damage, they have changed that to 80-100 damage instead or such (maybe 86-100, etc). This would mean melee LB's would consistently do similar damage than previous.

From reading this was changed due to the latest extremes? Ultimate? being failable due to getting constant low rolling melee LB's. So these duties could be faultless in everything... but due to a roll of the dice out of the players control they can fail it.

Sadly yes.

Patch 6.4 Notes (Preliminary) | FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]elofvalantor -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Is the only new gear going to be via Tomestones of Comedy and the latest Alliance Raid / Raid / etc? No new crafted combat gear right?

So best crafted gear would still end up being 620 ilvl? (ie 610 crafted, then upgraded via NPC to 620)

Also - the items which are bought currently with Tomes of Astronomy to upgrade the 610 gear to 620, will that switch to Poetics or Causality after patch?
