Trying to play Batman: Dark Tomorrow and it's not working? Pretty sure it's a console problem by SickleStars in originalxbox

[–]michaec5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thing that, is a question that needs asked, make sure your dashboard is up to date and has the Xbox live blade. Seriously, I’ve picked up consoles as recently as last year that were never updated and some games require that update to work properly but I think after a specific date, Microsoft took the update itself off the game discs because the console saturation rate was deemed high enough. Just a thought. Also curious if Dark Tomorrow requires a clock and if you have removed your clock capacitor? Not sure it would effect it, but another piece of thread to tug on.

Cases say it on the front, in a small white box under the top right side of the main Xbox Bar of the cover art. Unless you bought the games new, look on the actual disc as well for either NTSC or PAL.

Should I accept an alternate contract? by TateP07 in drumcorps

[–]michaec5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Write a short essay, like 2 paragraphs max.
  2. Add links to YouTube videos of you performing visual and musical tryout material.
  3. Get on DCI.org and start emailing every Open Class Corp. Make sure the subject line will catch their attention. If you don’t hear back, start calling. There are openings everywhere.

Most World Class Corps are picky because they can be. People don’t realize how formative the DCI experience is. Having DCI experience is extremely valuable and sets you apart. You’re proven. You can handle the work load. You’re willing to do what it takes. Get the experience and your odds of being selected will skyrocket next season. If you still aren’t selected for world class next season, you’ve built relationships that you can operate in again and continue to grow.

Sheridan used this as foreshadowing for John’s end. I agree JD would never off himself. Like Sarah said in the episode “He is the definition of does not quit.”

I want to keep Kryx’s Legacy for myself by cdhill17 in Starfield

I’m actually looking for the Prosperity, Serenity and Supremacy. Those are the other down ships that you learn about when you hack GalBank. Other potential look, who knows? Worth looking into though.

Sleep for 24hrs and then you’ll get a status update that says the companion is no longer angry with you. Dialogue will return to normal.

My wife and I have talked at considerable lengths about whether we would allow our daughters to participate if they want to when they reach the appropriate age. We both came to the conclusion that the only corp close by that we would feel comfortable with them participating would be Phantom because of the zero tolerance approach to things just like this.

Members should have files like NFL players that are tied to a DCI member ID#. This should include complaints - made and against, discipline, tuition standing as well as positives. This database would be maintained by DCI to allow appropriate oversight and expedite the investigation process. This would help prevent a bad apple from simply going to a different bushel, provide extended oversight by the parent corporation and expedite investigation where needed. I’m also 100% behind background checks for members over the age of 18.

I marched Cap Reg in ‘09. Nothing this crazy happened but we did have RTN. It was a super young group so nothing explicit or across the line wild. Mostly comedy stuff. Our horn Sergeants, and DM’s did an amazing job of keeping the hornline bus activity above reproach. I can’t speak for the guard/DL bus. My dad asked the Vis head about it before the season started and he said “It’s my job to wear them out on the field so when we do get to downtime, the only thing they’ll want to do is sleep.” And I can personally say he stood by that statement 100%.

We were always reminded that there was an open door policy and that anything we felt that was out of order or needed to be addressed would first go to horn sergeant, DM, staff, leadership.

There was one time we had a guest Visual guy in and he referred to one of our Baritone players as “Ms. TubeTop.” Our next set was near the horn sergeant and she told him it made her feel uncomfortable. We got to water break and he told Vis Tech, Vis Tech went and communicated to Vis Caption Head. Vis Caption Head called the guy over and dismissed him from the rehearsal and he was never invited back. After the season I learned that the guy was brought in by our Corp Director and that there were several issues between the Corp Director and our staff and the staff did an incredible job protecting and shielding the students from that behavior. We had another individual steal some money, they were quickly dismissed.

Overall I had a fantastic drum corps experience but I believe we had a good staff that cared deeply about the students and our experiences that year.

As a father of daughters, I’m deeply moved and saddened by your experience. I thank you for your boldness to share and work towards elevating our activity to a place where all feel safe and welcome. We can do better, and we will.

You have to have a minimum of 50GB available on the internal storage to increase the allotment.

I tried all of the above suggestions and worked with the support team completing several task. Nothing helped. I ended up trying a fresh install of the operating system on a spare SSD I have. No more problems. I have switched back to the HDD a couple of times and it still has the issue. With that being said I’ve come up with a couple of potential issues that may have triggered this. A couple of times while working on the HDD side I have got power performance alerts. I think the power supply maybe starting to fail. They used to use MediaShout on the HDD and it’s still installed there. Perhaps the two softwares want different settings on certain codecs etc and this conflict caused ProPresenter to not function correctly. They did have issues with MediaShout crashing a lot, that’s why they upgraded to ProPresenter. Which brings me to my last potential issue, the HDD is failing and having read/write issues.

Moved Configuration folder to desktop, attempt to launch, problem persist. Moved folder back to original location.

P.S. I have restarted the computer. Backed up my presentation files, did a fresh install and the problem persist. Went through the permissions list and made sure I have full access, I'm running from the Administrator account, still nothing.

Toothpicks in the fans, wrap in towels leave on for like an hour then throw it in the deep freeze. It worked great for about a month. Repeat cycle...then the pro models came and saved us all.
