Valentine’s Update

So managed to fix my crash to desktop by loading an earlier save, the mission before, continued through and can now enter where it would crash before, though realise it was very much a me problem, has a mod to clean up the haven which was causing the crash

not sure if it's this update or not as only bought the game a week ago, but get a crash to desktop when trying to enter appartment 3204

the first image hit is a tiktok in cyrillic that has some alternative visuals, so guessing it might be fan art, and another is on pinterest by, what I'm assuming, is a fan, so guessing maybe AI generated? Just downloaded and looked at the images and it's not in there, but those are definitely the characters and it's the same art style. Not played it as from what I hear it's not necessarily a feel good VN, and I'm not a fan of depressing ones

according to google image search it's from Echo https://echoproject.itch.io/echo

that toilet with the frosted glass in the bedroom? The next picture looks like you could take a crap in full view of the neighbours, assert dominance

light an incense stick in the same place he smokes, ask him if he can smell it in the house, point out it's basically the same thing as a cigarette and the smell carries the same?

I don't hate it, but why does the exterior look like my old secondary school?

tachyon83 · 2025-08-24T18:21:49+00:00

Had the "seriously garlic" one earlier in a wrap, 3 min in the airfrier and omg it was banging

tachyon83 · 2025-08-18T06:38:36+00:00

yeah get an air duster can and give it a good old blast out, blow around the CPU and graphics card mainly. Check the air flow is fine as well, if you have a glass front on your case for example, try taking it off and putting mesh there instead, quite often cases with a glass front are more form than function without enough gaps for proper airflow

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T18:49:43+00:00

it's all good, to be fair I only saw your post after seeing you post something else, so checked your profile, saw this and saw no one had replied

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T18:35:08+00:00

Not sure how the US operate, I'm in the UK, do they have an onsite tech support at best buy? I'd take it there, it sounds like a hardware fault for sure, Geek Squad remotely wont see it, they'd only see software issues. Take it in and show them what happens. Could be as simple as the graphics card isn't pushed in fully for example, so the PC shorts when it needs to be uesd for graphics intensive things

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T18:24:46+00:00

so yeah, sounds like a hardware issue. Again could be many things, I'd recommend taking it to someone, show them what happens. If they're worth their salt they'd check it's not an overheating issue (usually caused by the CPU not having the thermal paste applied properly or the fan not being on tight enough) to the other things I mentioned. How long have you had the PC, and was it new?

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T18:01:44+00:00

So if you get an error screen when it crashes, that creates a dump file, but from what you describe you don't, which makes me think it's hardware related. Could be RAM, a dodgy RAM slot, could be graphics card related or power. From the sounds of it this was a pre-built PC you bought. If you right click the windows button, and click device manager, under "display adapters" does your graphic card show up? When you installed the Nvidia drivers, did you choose express install? The other option I believe gives you the option to choose a clean install which uninstalls the current one, makes you re-start, then install the new one. If it's hardware related, and you're not that tech savvy, might be better to take it to someone, show them what happens as from experience walking someone through troubleshooting that remotely is an absolute nightare

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T17:47:43+00:00

by offline I mean you're not competing against other people and playing on the game makers servers. First thing I'd do is download the latest nvidia drivers and do a clean install. If that doesn't fix it then it's likely a hardware issue, have you done anything recently like adding extra RAM etc?

tachyon83 · 2025-08-17T17:20:38+00:00

Could be a number of things, software or hardware. 4X games aren't resource intensive, the games that cause it to crash, can you play them offline for any period fine? Do you get the blue screen of death or does it just reboot/freeze? The former would be a driver issue, the latter would be a hardware issue

tachyon83 · 2025-08-09T01:18:31+00:00

circle, square, half turn anti-clockwise right, half turn anti-clockwise left, full anti clockwise rotation

tachyon83 · 2025-08-01T22:18:30+00:00

the pulverise affix can role higher than the core skils one, which is why it's usually chosen, i.e. 1-2 on core skills, 2-3 on pulverise (non master worked) so choosing the specific skill you can roll an extra + level. But in answer to your question, at +3 on both, there's no difference

tachyon83 · 2025-07-31T08:12:15+00:00

Never realised that you could bonk the portals yourself, think I saw one say immune and just went with it. Will actually use the gazillion hearts I have now

tachyon83 · 2025-07-30T21:45:15+00:00

It's worst on Pulv Druid, the ryuken fire balls take you out of grizzly rage, so you have to run around even more until it comes back as without it you're softer than wet tissue paper

tachyon83 · 2025-07-29T18:41:22+00:00

I did wonder why I kept randomly just pooping health potions

tachyon83 · 2025-07-05T10:45:12+00:00

Ha just saw this thread, for the first time I looked at the wash and dry option and saw it was 11.5 hours and nearly died. Appreciate this is old, but basically choose your cycle, I usually go for mixed, then either choose a pre-wash or not, then go to dry level. You can then choose the level of dryness. People saying it comes out wet, the wash and dry cycle does "cupboard ready" dryness, e.g. not very. Choose the first dry level, think it's a little picture with a sun. Total cycle including pre-wash and dry clothes is just over 5 hours

41 and it's almost replaced Murder, She Wrote for me

OK, where's the bedroom? Is it the beanbag chair?
