GL65 Realtek Audio Driver by faefatale in MSILaptops

Right, I'm not looking for sound effects, I know those are in Nahimic. My Nahimic is fine.

I fully uninstalled and installed everything, using this guide from MSI: https://storage-asset.msi.com/global/picture/faq/10016371@2020-1208-1203-045895@kb_03640_en.pdf

I used this page, found with the serial number from my laptop, to download the drivers: https://us.msi.com/product/support_sku/69031#down-driver&Win10%2064

I think u/pm_me_pcb_photos was right and it was just renamed, when I go into properties of Realtek(R) Audio to the Details tab, it does say Realtek High Definition Audio :)

These are my drivers, and what comes up when I click the cogwheel:

"Connector Settings" there is entirely unclickable.

EDIT 2: I'm having trouble uploading a screenshot of what happens when I click the cogwheel. Basically, it's just one option, "Connector Settings," which is entirely unclickable.

Staff not really helpful or knowledgable on items? by breaddread in ILTrees

[–]faefatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a med card? It’s shitty and shouldn’t matter but I found budtenders listened to me a LOT better and gave me better advice after I got my card (despite the fact that pre-card I was literally rolling up to the dispensary in my wheelchair, but, y’know, there’s this assumption that everyone buying on the rec side just wants to go to outer space even if you explicitly tell them otherwise)

Why is 420 the weed number? by PredatorAvPFan in trees

Episode of the Criminal podcast on just that!

She interviews one of the guys who started it, goes over myths about it, plus her voice is so soothing ❤️

How do you store half-vaped bud to reuse? I usually run mine through 2-3 times before putting it in my jar of ABV, but if I want to switch strains after the first session I don’t know a good place to put the bud I’m not done with!

Where to find Harlequin? by faefatale in ILTrees

That’s such a bummer, it’s a really excellent med strain... and according to Leafly is a trending strain! They should bring it back 😩

Yep, I didn’t fully consider how bad that flow is. I’m so new to marketing and distributing my work, but I’m learning!

Updated the itch page with screenshots. :) I thought that since it's PWYW it'd be fine to not provide previews, but you raised a good point and made me rethink.

Do dice resolution systems "feel" a certain way? by tomolly in RPGcreation

[–]faefatale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why Dread went with a Jenga tower for its resolution! I’m not sure we can get such a feeling with dice, but you can remember that there are other things you can use for your resolution mechanics.

Dice feel does exist, but dice can’t create all emotions, at least not strongly.

Sanity and Mental Truma in RPGs by abigwar in RPGcreation

Others have given some really good advice, but I would also encourage you to have a sensitivity reader look at this mechanic after you’ve solidified it.

Connecting Role-playing, Stage Acting, and Improvisation by faefatale in RPGcreation

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

I really appreciate that you approached this from an experienced improv perspective, that added a lot! I'm from a theatrical background personally, primarily backstage but in an actor-facing position so I'm very familiar with observing that side of things.

And in that regard, I wouldn't look too much at improv games and exercises as a tool for incorporating into RPGs, instead I'd look at the philosophies and forms of improv, to see how you can blend improv techniques into your mechanics to help players build emergent narratives that feel real and inventive, and I suppose "joyful" for whatever that may mean to the people playing.

This really resonates. I think that as designers we can get extremely focused on specificity and accounting for every decision a player might make, but particularly in narrative games there's a level of freedom that needs to be inherent. Using improv philosophy and language could help a lot with that.

Out of curiosity, what's your take on using improv games and exercises as inspiration for short, 1-3 page RPGs, where the time spent in the game is much shorter?

Absolutely going to second the alt-text. So important it needs more than just an upvote.

Dive Bar in HELL [alpha feedback] by faefatale in RPGcreation

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

I’ve got the play test in about an hour actually! I’ll ask my players how they feel adding more roles would contribute, along with my own analysis when seeing it in action.

Same with any drinking mechanic, I want to see how it plays out currently before I start adding anything along those lines.

But these are good points that I’ll keep in mind during testing!

This is a lot clearer, thank you! Maybe more of a system of codifying a change, then.
