That’s sadly a bit how it is. Analogue media is big in Japan, and it’s probably hard to justify shipping stuff without a CD or LP. It’ll be on streaming eventually, maybe iTunes or the like, but otherwise you’ll have to CD or merch or something.

It’s just how things get over time, people will take out something others may consider fun, to instead boost performance. Really an inevitable optimization, as something like this could have been done by human testing and external logging, instead of an external tool to simulate attempts.

In regards specifically to Trackmania, the best solution to my mind is to split the leaderboard between analogue inputs and keyboard. I know that’s basically letting the program win, but it exists now, and unless they introduce random physics or performance, the door can’t really be shut.

In terms of speed running, this has also been done in other games, such as TAS runs or the AI they used in SMP64 to find new strats. I don’t really seeing it going away, even if it makes runs less bespoke and more like generic IKEA furniture.

Whilst developers can ban specific ads, they can’t really vet them beforehand. I think you can opt out of political ads (or maybe could at one point), but technically the ad you see is just for another app.

As an alternative solution to the ones already posed by others, you can use “Google Opinion Rewards” to get enough play store credit to buy the app. Every so often it’ll just ask if you googled “Ninja Coffee Bar” (literally), and give you 10-25 cents for answering, and typically a good bit more for any follow-up questions (“How helpful were the results”, etc).

Usually it’s just a legal ass-covering, but in this case, the project most likely depends on F4SE and the address library, which injects stuff at specific places in memory. Theoretically a cracked exe could work, but given something is likely changed from the original, all memory pointer addresses those two previous tools hook into and or override could be wrong. It’s less of a piracy thing, and more of a “We don’t want to troubleshoot things that may require us to do illegal things”. Besides, the issue would have to be fixed in the original libraries, not the mod.

FemShep was in game sculpted until the third game, which is why it looks weird and changes so much from game to game. BroShep on the other hand was a 3d scan of Mark Vanderloo I believe.

Vores arbejde har købt en flytbar AC, så vi har det sådan nogenlunde ok. Det koster nok noget i strøm, men man kan få nogle ret billigt. Den vi har koster ~5k, så ikke den billigste, men det er lige før man sidder og småfryser.

They also have a script patcher that makes it so you can use any font. A really useful feature if you replace fonts in programs or games, but the program doesn’t fall back to a safe font if a character isn’t supported.

OpenGL is a bit like Vulkan, but discontinued since… 2014, with a single update since then. It was actually stopped because Vulkan seemed better, and both API’s were maintained by the same organisation.

In general it’s more likely to work on older devices, but would be less performant than Vulkan.

DirectX is a Windows thing, so you’ll just have those calls translated to Vulkan under the hood (DXVK). You’ll probably get better performance from just setting it to Vulkan directly.

Edit: As some others say, for BG3 specifically, DXVK does a really good job. My personal experience is that “the best” option is very patch dependent. At launch Vulkan was best, then after a few patches did DXVK ran better, but personally I’m back to straight Vulkan, for no other reason than wanting to be a +1 in the statistics.

She doesn’t say which, but I’m happy for her in any case. She said in the past, that if she was to join a corpo, she’d join Phase-Connect, not VShojo. But she did also meet up with Matara at Offkai and talked things over with her, who knows. The counterpoint is of course that Phase-Connect has open auditions around now, and she’s more than big enough to keep her current persona, something they only allow for quite established people.

The Cloudflare human verification thing checks browser parameters that some extensions block or fake. Likely caused by “Canvas Blocker” if you use that. The fix is to add the specific Cloudflare subdomain this widget uses to the whitelist.

It’s honestly nearly impossible to keep up with the essentials after any amount of time away. So many groundbreaking mods come out monthly, that I used to stalk the “Updated” tab just about every day.

There are so many essential and almost mandatory mods for Skyrim, lists get outdated fast. Though Lexy’s LOTD list has an entire section of mostly up to date things. I’d recommend giving it a skim, though it may want you to install more mods.

This feels like something blown more out of proportion if you actually read Paradox’s reply, and of course trust it. (Reddit warning)

The highlight for me is that it seems more based on being able to add lines in the future, without having to drag the actor back into the studio for 1-3 new lines only (And that’s on the generous side for what gets added per DLC). Paradox claims the original voice artist gets a fair commission from the usage of their voice for new lines, which would be nice if it’s true.

You’re making me wish Ballistix still made ram for the consumer market. Their sticks could often run much higher numbers than the “safe” xmp profile put on them.

I’m happy she’s back. Could clearly tell from her PL twitter that she was feeling the waters after the whole Selen/Dokibird thing.

Semi-related, but I found it a bit weird TVS publicly stated her PL account was actually her, along with Kiara and Fuwamoco. They tend to shy away from confirming past/private life accounts.

Whilst Gimp is technically powerful, you can really tell it’s made by programmers. I cannot stand the UI and shortcut defaults, but maybe I’m damaged from having used Photoshop a couple times.

Is it’s C, you could use Cosmopolitan

It’s based off Tachoyami(or whatever the one that was recently near nuked was called), and can be found googling a little. It’s annoying, but they got sued, and this was their way of protecting themselves.

God, Take-Two is probably the scummiest, dumbest, and greediest game publishing company around. I know that most companies of this type are appalling, like Activision/Blizzard, Ubisoft, or EA, but I feel that they’ve fallen to the point where it’s expected to be bad. Take-Two has been, in my opinion, just as shitty in forever, but the success of GTA and RDR2 makes them slip people’s minds completely.
