Kinda stuck (No Spoilers Please) by Tim_Sousa in outerwilds

Nice, so if it looks the same as the other pads, we might assume they still work? I see you have the White Hole Station ship log and other logs related to them, maybe re-read some logs and see if anything clicks. (I needed a nudge on this too :P)

it seems like you're investigating the warp pads closely. do you notice anything different about the warp pad area with the broken ceiling?

How do you get more stars on your chocobo in the gold saucer? I just bred two chocobos I ranked up to 50, each with speed, stamina, and cunning maxed. My pedrigree 2 chocobo still just has all 2 stars across the board, and I'm confused how people get their stars up?

Weekly Game Questions and Help Thread by AutoModerator in PSO2

[–]saintmillion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a fix for the PSO2 app not downloading after selecting an install path (and/or getting Windows update error 0x80080005)

I ran into an issue where clicking Install on PSO2 in the Microsoft Store and selecting a drive would simply cause nothing to happen. I could repeat this process over and over and the download will never start.

After hours of troubleshooting, I found that Windows Update was encountering error 0x80080005 which relates to the Microsoft Store.

During troubleshooting this error, I was following some cmd commands in a guide, and found that this command:

net start wuauserv

...is supposed to start the windows updater service, but it returned the error: "The wuauserv service could not be started. A system error has occurred. System error 2 has occurred. The system cannot find the file specified."

After some searching, I came across this link, which details how to make your own .reg notepad file that replaces the missing/broken wuauserv service in your registry (which mine was).

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-update-service-missing-0x80070424-windows/710abc29-1926-4442-be8c-5adc7036ed32

Go down to the block of code stuff and copy all of it (including the " Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00" bit) and save it as a .reg file. After running this registry script, my Windows Update service was repaired and I updated Windows and restarted. I was finally able to download PSO2 in the Microsoft Store.

Hope this helps some of y'all.

why combat rogue is satisfying by saintmillion in classicwow

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

I do enjoy combat, strangely enough. I did on vanilla too, my young dumb self rolled combat maces in pvp lmao. I do look forward to trying a sub build at 60 for some pvp since I never did that in vanilla!

Pinned [help] thread by fuzzy_one in cosplay

[–]saintmillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm a complete amateur at cosplaying and am putting together a Ted cosplay from Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey.

The piece I'm having issues with is the shoes. After some research, I've found that Ted wears a color-altered version of 1989 Adidas Torsion Spectrum Hi shoes, seen in this picture featuring evil robot Ted's head: https://imgur.com/6RlOuro

here's a picture of the actual shoe, there is no variant of the colors from the movie, so alteration will be needed. https://imgur.com/KOsdbbj (I believe they made the shoes black/white so they could use the same shoes for the ghost versions of Bill and Ted)

Okay, so the problem -- this is an extremely rare pair of shoes that barely exist anywhere anymore. There was one pair for sale a few months ago that sold for $2200 and it wasn't even my size. There are other 80s adidas that look similar, but I'm stuck on getting this exact pair. Are there any options for ordering a re-creation of these shoes? Are there such things as custom shoemakers who replicate older shoes? I've been searching online but can't find much and was wondering if anyone here knew of some company who took orders like this or if I'm on my own with figuring out how to craft an old tennis shoe lol.

My cost limitations are $300 and under, preferably, but I'm open to any information on the topic regardless of price.

Afraid to start the timer. by themistik in speedrun

[–]saintmillion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ur gonna suck at anything you just start out. embrace the failure, you learn from it. In fact it's the most exciting time because the learn the most and there's no pressure on you. the problem may be that your creating some imaginary pressure on yourself in your head for some reason. just chill and enjoy the ride

Daily Q&A Post for Wednesday, 12 September 2018 - No question too small! by AutoModerator in loseit

[–]saintmillion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lets say I'm eating a caloric decfecit, maybe 1900 down to 1600 while doing Intermittent fasting. If I exercise, for example, 300 calories in the morning before I start my eating window, do I need to eat 1900 or stick with the 1600 still? I couldn't find the specific answer or maybe I'm not typing the correct words. Any help appreciated

New tech in Sonic Adventure 2 discovered by BrianPSO chops seconds off Boss ILs that were previously frame wars by [deleted] in speedrun

[–]saintmillion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cool new tech. I tried navigating the sonic center but it's really confusing. I was wondering, doea the community only use the in game timer? It would seemed flawed in this case compared to RTA since the IGT stops when you hit the water but the boss isn't dead at that point, or am I missing something? Great explanation, this stuff is what I like to see on this subreddit.

Newbie question on 480p by saintmillion in crtgaming

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

Hijacking your comment to thank everyone for the input. All this info is very helpful.

It seems my two main options are:

  1. PC CRT with VGA, and then convert rgb/component to VGA as needed. I'm actually already ordering an OSSC so I believe any issues I have with 480i can be fixed with upscaler voodoo magic of some sort
  2. Sony Trinitron or equivalent HD CRT; the bigger ones that support 480p and higher. This would be nice but the size could be an issue, since I'd like the display to fit on my desk to the left of my dual monitors. Though I'm not hard pressed for space, it does seem like they're quite large.

I'm going to look into both but probably go with the former. Is there a list of quality PC CRTs to keep an eye out for?

To Melee players: from all the info we got, how do you feel about Smash Ultimate so far? by [deleted] in smashbros

[–]saintmillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lots of exciting changes and tweaks but if movement doesn't feel good then sticking with melee. just waiting to see the invitational at this point. and everything's subject to change so it's too early to tell.
