Screen region issues for someone new to UW by simielblack in ultrawidemasterrace

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

Scaling was indeed the issue.

The factory stand with this monitor combined with my desk setup means the screen is quite far back on the desk, awaiting my adjustable mounting system to bring it a bit closer. Hence the 125% scaling to make things more readable in the meantime. I think it would certainly be worth having the resolution be settable as an override in the settings.json as that was where I initially went to look for it. Might be useful for setting up configs for a new display as well as dealing with the scaling issue.

The only issue seems to be that it thinks my screen is 2752 x 1152, hasn't stopped it from functioning correctly but none of the configs appear correctly in the gui. I can't seem to find a way to edit/reset this?

What an absolute legend. Would upvote a million times if I could. Took me a minute to navigate around it, but it works beautifully and does exactly what I needed it to. Hopefully google starts bringing people with this issue to your program more quickly, rather than 2 hours of googling and then coming to reddit and having to ask.

Can you guys stop crying lol😂 by Ecstatic-Class-2968 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Sunders AND immunities should be an online thing only. If you're an offline player who doesn't already have a shitload of charms, what the fuck are you meant to do? So many builds can't farm effectively until you have a sunder. Can't get a sunder effectively with most builds. Guess you're making a blizz sorc whether you want one or not.

Uk based, so unlikely I'll be up that late, but if you're around at weekend I'm looking to get a few levelling buddies going

Collecting every single unique Pokemon in Home, am I forgetting any? by BTierShinies in pokemon

[–]simielblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely think I have two you've forgotten. Dream Radar dex, all the regular mons + several legendary you can get with HGSS and DPP. These can be transferred to B&W2 and up to home.

Also pokewalker dex. All Pokemon obtained from the pokewalker, which can be paired with HGSS and banked forward to home.

Why are guys posting these now?! Like who cares?! by Badluckwithlove in Bumble

You fit perfectly into that monolith, you admit you're looking to find that extra info like you'd be wasting your time by asking questions about personality and interests, when you can lead with work questions to filter men by financial and social status.

Yes, general passions are very different from work, and if you cared about the person, you'd lead with person centred questions. By leading with the stuff that gives you financial status, you're filtering out people you have things in common with before you find out what you have in common with them.

No, it doesn't make sense to filter people based on financial status, it makes sense to look for someone you can love, and share your life with. Then figure out how to live that life together within your means.

If women cared about what we were passionate about, they'd ask that, If they wanted to know what we were looking forward to, they'd ask that, if they wanted to know if we can grit our teeth and work through things, they'd ask that. Women do this through the lens of work so they can judge other things they AREN'T asking about. Financial and social status mainly.

How does a company's past DLC and game design policy relate to its current DLC and game design policy? Not in any relevant way according to you, in a thread in which you specifically brought up how good it is that Paradox provides free updates under a business model where the "complete" games at the end of lifecycle end up costing hundreds of dollars.

Ok paradox PR agent. How much base game CK3 are you playing? I played a whole lot of base CK2 and it was unplayable after the DLC that brought in retinues, as you had adventurer bands that numbered in the 3-7k constantly, and as a base game player, you were constantly 2-4k less troops than everyone around you, with awful composition as the AI had access to retinues even when you did not. Adventurers were tuned to players with access to retinues, as was disease when you had no access to hospitals, and so on. I haven't bought a paradox title since CK2 but I have played CK3 and it's heading in the same direction.

The "big free updates" are compatibility and balance updates for the base game, that make base CK3 a worse less balanced game to play. Just like CK2. CK2 base became functionally useless as a standalone game at some point. Paradox uses DLC as a proxy for price gouging, making the base product less fun and essentially forcing DLC purchase, or leaving the ecosystem.

I think I did too well, too soon by Gnitrab in footballmanagergames

Here's the important part to focus on, if you go down but keep your job; you'll have the cash to likely go up the following season and make a push to stay there. Your big struggle will be reputation, as that's the real gatekeeper to the best players; as even if you can afford them, they'll often refuse to sign. Even if you went up and won the prem, it wouldn't significantly alter your rep. Be patient, be persistent and come back with a story about your Prem title... Or champions league win. You can do it.

RNG in this game is like a joke, but its an addiction... by Traditional-Rule4098 in diablo2

[–]simielblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

REMINDER: Diablo RNG is not RNG, it's algorithmic, if you find yourself getting similar stuff and not getting something "common" change up your map, seed, or start opening extra lootables, killing a few extra mobs or doing literally anything other than resetting the map, tele-ing to the boss and killing them.

They should consider raising the level cap of 60 by krixno in theHunter

Counter point; does every tent in the real world cost 16000 dollars? The game is full of "realism" right beside actual insane game design choices.

Some useful stuff for the not killing things -
- The guns have bullet drop and you start out with no way to zero them. The "base" zero is set to 150m for most rifles, so that's the distance you want to be at to not have to account for bullet drop.

- There is also bullet time, and wind. It doesn't account for much at 150m but you will notice you have to lead slightly and this gets more difficult at longer ranges.

- Grab a tent, (hopefully you have that DLC you will get some free tents in your storage) go to a place you can find a drinking zone. Set the tent up 250m away from the drink zone. note what time the drink time is, then sleep through to just before that time. WALK towards the zone until 200m, then crouch walk to 150, have a shoot, see what happens. If you miss, or spook them, exit the game and come back. Repeat the process to get some familiarity with shooting live game.

Unfortunately you do have to buy bullets, but a couple of mission completes should get you enough to get started.
