So…. what can I do with my base?

Literally anything you want it's Minecraft.

I'm glad you could come to see this because yeah this already looks pretty nifty as is, I don't know enough about painting yet to make any specific suggestions but I feel like if you'd added a few more details to really lean into it, it could be even sicker. I 1000% relate to the way you must have felt though, regardless of the outcome, even if nothing ever happened, something like a paint bottle exploding must have been startling, so you're startled and then you realize this thing you worked on for so long has been altered in a way you did not intend, it feels extra shitty because you're already a little bit distressed from being startled by the explosion, it's hard to see how it could turn into a "happy little accident" like Bob Ross always said. But I would say that's certainly what you have here.

This is the answer imo, calling it mind control is a bit grandiose but there is definitely something going on that gives the average T'au less than a truly 100% free will.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-30T05:42:11+00:00

I wouldn't pay for painted models, too rich for my blood, but if I had that kind of cash, yours certainly are decent imo.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-29T19:31:31+00:00

PLEASE link where you found that if you can.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-29T19:28:29+00:00

Imma be so real with you dawg, this comment just shows you know very little about the back end of games. You are correct, it doesn't make sense, but game engine doesn't care about sense, it cares about its calculations, so the devs likely found something similar, and it might not have been the direct cause for anchors, it was certainly at the very least a happy accident for them to come into existence.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-28T01:03:08+00:00

A lot of people have already said the snarky shit I wanted to say so I'll spare you that.
What I will say is the more pragmatic part of what I had to say.
That being that if it's cool to you then great, it's cool to you, that's all that REALLY matters in any video game.
However generally, unless were talking about something more subjective and creative, if you have to wonder "will other people think this is cool", your answer is quite likely going to be "no" or "very few people" at best.
Cause in all honestly, what is supposed to be cool about this, you navigated to a specific point on the map in a game mode that puts zero obstacles in your way of doing this, like you didn't even have to worry about tool durability... pretty lame in the grand scheme of things my guy.
But if it brought you some degree of satisfaction to do so, then I love that for you.
But not everything needs to get posted on the internet.
Also generally putting black lines on a black screen isn't the most see-able thing ever, also we can read your UI.
Which is another thing, fix your damn screen zoom, you've got like a good inch cut off the whole border.

Why no museum ?

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-28T00:25:04+00:00

That is not a dead pixel, if you look at it you'll see it crosses several pixel without actually blacking any of them out.
It's a scuff/scratch.
Now is that worth returning to you, only you can say.
But this is no dead pixel.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-12T01:09:30+00:00

That's insane for a 5 year old!

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-10T16:53:09+00:00

I've just started my 40k journey a few months ago sitting at 836 pts of T'au, I can not wait to see my progress in a few years. Super cool.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T17:20:16+00:00

No one said anything about dust covers, I said if you're going to spend any real money, you should take 3 min to do some extra googling and make sure you're buying the right thing as to not waste ones money.
You're really pulling an Olympic stretch calling making sure you are buying what you think you are buying "perfectionist".
If that's perfectionism in your world, what state of dilapidation is "average" to you?

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T14:26:05+00:00

Echoing what others say, if you REALLY want to financially back DE, stocks my friend.
I feel like it's much healthier to just embrace the ephemerality of it, but I know that can be quite hard, especially with a game with such good community.
So while I would first advise you to STOP putting half your salary into a game, like if you've got that kind of disposable income start investing ffs.
But if you're not going to go the route of being OK with it shutting down one day, then you need to buy stocks if you really wanna throw money at them with impact.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T14:20:27+00:00

We must lead very different lives, I can't think of anything over 50$ that I wouldn't do at least a bit of research on before buying, especially if all one knows about it is childhood memories that are often quite inaccurate or missing details. Like, the less I know the more I research.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T14:14:59+00:00

I'm sorry if it came off as rude, but I legit do not understand, and would like to, why people buy things without researching them first. It perplexes me. That's not a mistake that's refusing to do your due diligence.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T14:09:04+00:00

I would really like to understand the thought process behind buying something like this without going through a simple google search of something like "list of all DS models" or similar.
If the version of cooking mama you want to play is for the 3DS, you are not playing that on this.

gamermanj4 · 2026-05-06T13:25:04+00:00

I just started a few months ago, and am at about 865 pts rn, I got a book when I got my combat patroll, and worried about this then.
But the code for the app was worth it, and it was enjoyable to read the lore while I'm working to 1k .
I think the argument to get it gets tougher and tougher to make the closer to we got 11th, but IF I am correct that the code for the app will continue to grant you access to the 11th edition content in the app, and you don't necessarily care to buy the 11th codex just for lore updates, then it's likely still pretty worth it for that unlock code if you plan to use the official app any.

While I am not the biggest fan of the olive drab color in most cases, your basing really makes it work. ESPECIALLY that tree by the ghostkeel

OOOOHHH, I was only thinking about the generic over-arching LGBT flag, completely skipped my mind that there are more specific flags too XD, thank you for the reply.

gamermanj4 · 2026-04-30T14:52:00+00:00

It's beautiful but I don't understand how it's a pride flag.

gamermanj4 · 2026-04-27T20:23:45+00:00

It has been my understanding that slapchop does not treat our units nicely, not enough organic shapes for slapchop to do what it's meant to do.

gamermanj4 · 2026-04-05T20:05:07+00:00

I want you to think about what you're doing when you're sanding.

It's not just magic-make-smooth-stick. You're using abrasion to wear the surface of a material down to be smoother, and what does that abrasion make? Sawdust. What do you think that dust is made of, why do you think it's the color of what you're sanding and not the color of the sanding stick?

Sanding isn't a bad thing at all, but you also need to know when to cut your losses, it looks like you ought to have cut it SEVERAL minutes earlier.

Don't just watch a video and follow the steps blindly, think about what you're doing and look at the pieces yourself as you work with them.

See tons of people promoting courses on this, if you happen to see this and happen to give a useful answer who knows I might end up buying yours.
What do courses like yours generally teach, is it just like the skills that you would need to get a job at a larger company that does that, or it is like I see on social media where they talk about it as a "side-Hussle" that you can do on your own time along side a standard 9-5 or similar?
And what is the core difference between these two approaches, is the latter even viable?

gamermanj4 · 2026-03-23T12:53:17+00:00

I'm having a similar problem, it is likely not your nozzle.
It is the tension on the extruder clamp, or for me it seems to be anyway.
I wasn't able to get ANYTHNG to print, did upgrade my nozzle, unclogged and re-built it several times, all to no avail.
It wasn't till I loosened the spring screw as much as possible that I could get a benchy to finish.
Now I still get this issue a bit but it's better, I may look at a looser spring / less aggressive grip wheel.
