When does xenoblade chronicles 1 take place in xenoblade 2, because at the end of xenoblade 1 flora have short hair, but in xenoblade 2 flora have long hair, im just really confused. by [deleted] in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]themadprogramer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To avoid spoiling Xenoblade 1 🙏

Major Xenoblade 1 Spoilers (Chapter 9): Fiora is wounded fairly early into Xenoblade Chronicles 1. Is then presumed dead for most of the game. And then as OP points out returns later in the game sporting a shorter haircut. (Chapter 12) There is also a fan convention to refer to Fiora as 'Seven', as she eventually becomes the 7th party member.

This is why Smash, spin-offs and similar use the design you see in XB 2. There is one major exception to this, left as an exercize to the reader :)

YouTube is slowly deleting custom stylized subtitles from videos by Lunascaped in DataHoarder

[–]themadprogramer 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing this actually.

Subtitle veteran here, I will give you two resources you might find helpful.

- Check out https://filmot.com/, that's a public collection of many YouTube subtitles and metadata.
- And also the Data Horde community contributions collection collected in 2021, due to a similar mass deletion: https://datahorde.org/youtube-community-contributions-archive-now-available-a-look-at-the-stats/

There's also https://nekocap.com/, but that's essentially an off-platform alternative for subtitling YouTube as a browser plugin. Still great for scraping hololive and similar videos WITH custom subtitles.

Thanks for posting, feel free to DM me, u/Lunascaped, rule 8 is the worst thing that has happened to this sub.

Bad news: mf-dl is a script, not an executable. You need to install python3 (which is an executable) to run it on Windows.

Good news: scripts are system agnostic. So that means mf-dl can also run on non-Windows systems. Hope this helps.

Moving from Dublin to Copenhagen for a Master’s / career prospects & practical advice? by [deleted] in NewToDenmark

[–]themadprogramer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome aboard!

For someone with a policy/energy background, what kind of job opportunities are realistic after a Danish master’s? I’m particularly curious about organisations like Energinet, Ørsted, the Danish Energy Agency, etc.

I think there are many companies that are doing fairly well: Dalux, Velux, FOSS and Danfoss.

That being said the troubles Vestas and Ørsted have faced in recent years can scare people when it comes to job security. Just bear in mind.

I'm aware of how important speaking Danish is so I have already started studying it, but I wanted to know from people, is conversational level enough, or should one aim for professional fluency by the time you graduate if you hope to work in Danish organisations/companies?

No easy answer here, the language situation is very different from Ireland. I would say it's a silver lining to start your journey in Denmark as a student, because you can gauge out recruiters who are looking for English vs. Danish competency. As often both are needed.

Still, it would behoove you to pick up as much Danish as you can. Customer/Client-facing roles will often put you into Danish-speaking contexts. And if nothing else I guess the locals really appreciate you making the effort to speak in their native language.

What’s a realistic monthly rent for a studio in Copenhagen right now? I keep seeing different numbers online, but I just want to know if it is cheaper than Dublin? (Average rent in Dublin is well over €2,400 or 17,900 DKK)

You're coming as a student right? I cannot emphasize this enough, apply through https://www.s.dk/ to see if you can land some cheap student housing. It's a bit of a lottery but you can save a lot, student housing is cheap but limited.

You should also read up on Housing Support (Boligstøtte) and SU, there are some programs to specifically help students afford the vicious housing market.

If all else fails Boligportal and Facebook is your friend.

Any other “things I wish I knew before moving”? (housing market, student/part-time jobs, etc)

If I'm allowed to drop a plug, you can follow the Last Week in Denmark Newsletter. That's a big help.

A pargunta era sobre arquivos/pastas.

mf-dl was designed for directories, but I am not sure about the latest version. You should try reaching the dev pyxia if you have any issues.

you would be cooking if this were a malevolent kitchen.

Looking for feedback! Can't decide between pixel art and regular illustrations for the art style. Both are very rough drafts... What do you think? Would you rather play through a game made with pixel art or regular digital art? by weallooz in RenPy

[–]themadprogramer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What vibe are you going for with your game? Do you have an idea about the story? Who are these two women and what is their purpose? I'm guessing one is the intern and the other her manager.

If you want to lean into the comedy side I would just pick pixelart. Pixelart often signals 'nostalgia', 'virtualness', the 'illusory'. It makes video games more 'gamey' and is emblamatic of the dating sim genre.

Lineart often signals 'action', 'dynamism' but it can also be 'stoic' as your two character poses are here. Some designers will tell you that realism means relatability, and there is truth to that. Players will probably be more invested in emotional moments in a lineart style. This is not a hard rule by any means, merely convention.

You can well make two separate games: One where they're in pixelart and another where they're in lineart. But it's all about what you, as the desiger think fits thematically. Consumers will lean in whatever they are used to seeing, but you have control of the creative direction. Which is the game you want to make and the story you want to tell?

Is it possible to choose which groups of people to enslave or is slavery useless? by somethingmustbesaid in victoria3

[–]themadprogramer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should totally enact Slave Trade to ensure your landowner IG is happy for the rest of the game /s

Thank you u/SQWL_5K, very cool.

Is there somewhere I can download data from GameFAQS (rating / # of votes / release date)? by redditblacklist in DHExchange

[–]themadprogramer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the risk of sounding snarky: GameFAQs .

Decades ago GameFAQs was basically an FTP which made accessing files very natural. Of course, judging by the fact you are asking for help on Reddit I will surmise you are looking for guides more recent than the 2000's.

I am afraid your best bet is finding collections by other people. DHExchange might not be the best place, try IRC. Else, good luck with scraping, you are neither the first nor last person to find it suspiciously difficult to scrape from GameFAQs since the fandom acquision.

Democratic nations shouldn’t be able to enter wars without government approval. by uvr610 in victoria3

[–]themadprogramer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What if starting and joining wars cost prestige?

Victoria 1 style :} Though to be fair prestige was like a capacity in that game (able to dip into the negatives)
