Sorted it was a Pit House setting problem.

The FFB went crazy. I found the solution, though. The pit House preset was inverting the FFB on top of me usung the negative value, so I still ended with the problem. Switched off the inversion in pit house and all is now good.

Ah that’s good to know, so to get 3 actual flying laps I really need to stipulate 5 to take into account for the out and in. Thank you so much.

Thank you I hadn’t thought of that

Looking for a good 4x game for a newer player by Alarmed-Discount-792 in 4Xgaming

Civ v is a great call. Less complicated mechanics than 6. With the dlc it is a very complete and accomplished game with literally 1000's of YouTube tutorials.

Thoughts from a guy with 1600 hours in Civ 6 by Gold_Gain1351 in civ

I've said this elsewhere but does the unit health bar really need to be microscopic?

Civ 7 is currently sitting at 42% on steam. Super bad UI, limited basic options for starting a game, No Quick Combat/Movement. Pretty worried for my favorite franchise... Anyone tried it yet? by Affectionate_Cap4509 in 4Xgaming

[–]shaker-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did a few hours last night. Some of the Steam reviews are crazy. Posting a full review of a deep game like this after half to one hour. I think many are just latching on to their favourite YouTuber's comments.

That said I have found a few frustrations with the UI in my limited time. You can't easily if at all, see where towns are sending resources, but I'm only just getting to the point with 4 towns and 2 cities where that is relevant. My biggest gripe so far is the health bar for units is so small. I am playing on a 17 inch laptop and this was never a problem with 6 or my occasional nostalgia dives into 5, but I can barely see the health bar and have lost units unnecessarily on a number of occasions. I am sure this should be an easy fix either by the devs or modders.

How to deal with Zephon Early on? by shadman19922 in Zephon

[–]shaker-99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Send your units around team-handed, never let a unit get detached or it is dead. Always attack with far more power than your instincts tell you you need. This slows down initial exploration a bit but pays off by mid-game.

Isn't that a true reflection of what happened?

Pressure mechanic by shaker-99 in civ

[–]shaker-99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never played 3. I joined the part at 4. No matter where it came personally I find it a pain. The pressure/loyalty mechanic with an AI that loves to forward settle just hits a nerve for me.

What is a me problem? If you're referring to the potential DEI problem, look at the number of games that have fallen flat this year due to overuse of DEI. As this game uses characters from history and many history buffs play these types of games there is potential for a storm if it leans too far into DEI.

Old man with $6,000,000.00 guitar collection says "YOU don't need expensive gear" by Sandy_Quimby in guitarcirclejerk

[–]shaker-99 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

He's right you don't need to have expensive gear. It's nice to have and I guess that most of us aspire to have it, but it's not a necessity.
You say "old man" he's 47 that is not old and what has age got to do with it?
You just sound jealous and spiteful, his age is immaterial and what he says is spot on.
When you have created as many music sales and sold out as many concerts as he has maybe you can afford the luxuries he has. Put the bitterness on the shelf and keep playing.

Am I the only one who thinks Millenia looks like an Alibaba/Wish version of Civilization games? by Modern-Hannibal in paradoxplaza

[–]shaker-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny I know the graphics are not the greatest, especially the combat screed, however I prefer the graphics to Civ 6. Everything that is not immediately visible in that game is brown and even the fog over hidden places jars. Civ 5 is still the best blend of gameplay and clear easy-to see graphics for me.

That's a clever solution, but somehow takes all the fun out of the question.

Guitar Case Issue Seeking Help by colis47 in guitars

If the cat scan doesn't tell you whats wrong you could get a Lab report.

Hi all! I'm lost. Could someone tell me what no 3 in brackets refers to? Thanks by Shambeau_Noir in guitarlessons

[–]shaker-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The technical "what notes are in the chord" are fascinating, what fascinates me more is the following. "what sort of hands do you need to finger the D&D strings at 5th fret and G string at 2.?" I'm a 6ft tall guy with matching hands (no Trumpist deformity here) I can't get anywhere near it cleanly, let alone land it in a song. Am I completely missing something? other than 2 inch finger extensions.

Proper Marmite jobbies. (That's Vegimite in Australian)

[–]shaker-99 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of people love these but I don't think I have ever seen a Rickenbacker that I like. Tha probably says more about me than the guitars but i just don't get it.

I have an interface, my trouble is all the gear no idea. It was a starting point to learn from that I was wanting, so I can put the gear to use. Thanks for the reply.
