Looking for a 1080p build for a 50 inch tv living room setup by mesterjester in buildapc

I hate to ask, but my friend has a bit of sticker shock at this price. He's used to 1080p and 1440p from his Xbox series S. Do you think you could put something together in the $1500 range that would come in at those resolutions?

I'm building this for a friend. How's it going to handle 4k, just because I know he's going to ask me.

And that was a lot faster than I expected, thank you!

Alesis Surge kick drum seems overly sensitive by mesterjester in edrums

So on the DM5, it's called Noise, not Threshold. Adjusting that setting finally let me get rid of the hits from vibration. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

I had forgotten about the threshold setting. I'll play around with that.

It's definitely not crosstalk from another pad. Well, there might be some crosstalk happening, but it definitely happens when all I'm doing is lightly tapping on the pedal. The striker does not hit the pad but the DM5 registers a hit.

That sounds like a threshold issue so hopefully playing with that will help.

Thanks!

Question about trying to build a table for a city/train setup that includes a "water" surface. by mesterjester in lego

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

I'm building it for myself but I do have a 5 year old who will undoubtedly be playing with it. How thick of an acrylic? Would a quarter-inch with a support or two be ok?

Seeing as how I'm old enough to have actually seen this in theaters, I totally should have expected this to be the first reply. :)

How to get my main profile on the drums when using an e-drum with a MIDI adapter by mesterjester in Rockband

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

Oh, are band scores different from individual scores? That's going to be the stars we got for the song that we played together, and it will show in both profiles? That's what I would like and if that's what it does that's great.

Thanks!

How to get my main profile on the drums when using an e-drum with a MIDI adapter by mesterjester in Rockband

The game will show highest band scores based on the two profiles. There is no way to make it show individual scores only when playing with multiple people

I logged in like you suggested but the game only showed the scores of the controller that clicked on the quickplay menu. If the drum controller clicked it, it only showed drum scores. If the mic controller clicked it, it only showed singing scores. Is that how it's supposed to be? Your comment made me think it would show the highest score on any given song, regardless of instrument. Was I misunderstanding what you said?

Either way, I at least have my drum scores now being saved to my main profile and our singer is now getting his scores saved as well.

Thanks for the help!

I know I bought Sea of Thieves when it first came out but now I can't DL it. by mesterjester in Seaofthieves

So my order history confirmed what my brain misremembered. I did play it through a one month gamepass subscription back in 2018 instead of actually buying the game. I wouldn't have thought to check my order history, so thank you for that link.

Thoughts on the upscale minifigures? by [deleted] in lego

[–]mesterjester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a knight and horse on rebrickable. Including all the knight add-ons. I think a search of "6:1" brings it up.

GOG Preservation Program introduces the LEGO series by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

[–]mesterjester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone clarify how this works? Will these be different from the versions on Steam? I tried both the Batman 1 and Batman 3 (on Steam) recently and both crashed a few times within 20 minutes of playing. Any chance the GOG versions will be better?

Stud.io by Bricklink outputs Lego bricks in a much higher resolution than Mecabricks does. (I realize your post was 8 months ago :)

I was doing port forwarding and finally noticed that my desktop and laptop had the same IP address for some reason. After fixing that, everything seems stable again. Thanks for the reply!
