10:01 PM
@RonanForman @GnomeSlice you two around?
 
@Wipqozn Maybe. Might have to go do some chores.
 
@GnomeSlice forgotten http://
 
@GnomeSlice Quick question for you: You've made splash screens for our previous youtube Game On!/Let's play/et cetera videos, correct?
 
@Wipqozn Yes. And?
 
@GnomeSlice Do you plan to continue doing so? I'm working on a meta post for the new format of Game On!, and I just want to confirm if you would like to continue doing so.
If you don't wish to, I'll ask for a volunteer, otherwise I'll mention you'll be doing it.
 
10:03 PM
I would... LIKE to... but I'm not getting paid for this.
So what's involved, exactly?
 
@GnomeSlice Just make a splash screen really. IF you want me to ask for a few more volunteers, I will.
I have no idea what is involved in doing so, therefore not sure if it would be a good idea to have a few people.
The one you made before is a good stock splash screen, which we could use for every video, provided someone can edit the name of the game being played.
 
@Wipqozn How many? Like, a bunch of different ones?
What's wrong with the first one?
 
@GnomeSlice Nothing?
 
@Ronan can change the names easily enough in that one.
 
That's what I meant, we could just use that one, since it's good.

Q: Where are the profession trainers in TOR?

Raven DreamerI've been running around Korriban for a while now, and noticed that some of the beasties that I've been force choking to death have "Bioanalysis Required" popping up on their corpse. I'm aware this is a gathering profession, but I've not seen any indication as to where I can learn such a profess...

Q: Optimizing skillset order for Fiddlesticks

Grace NoteFiddlesticks has a nice set of skills - a decent length disable, a bouncing silence, and the potent life drain channel. They're all very nice to have... which has caused me great trouble in figuring out how to prioritize the skills I'm learning. I tend to max Drain first, but continually flip-flo...

 
@GnomeSlice okay, wasn't sure.
 
@Wipqozn So... why do you need me to make a new one?
 
@GnomeSlice I don't. sorry for the confusion.
 
Ah, I see.
 
I just wasn't sure if someone else could edit the name, or if you would need to do it.
 
10:06 PM
@RonanForman Do you still want the HD CTW screen?
Because it's uploading now.
 
@GnomeSlice well, CTW was 100% @RonanForman, so talk to him.
 
@Wipqozn Check the @ mention.
 
but yeah, I have zero experience with video editing, so I didn't know what was involved in editing the name.
@GnomeSlice Pardon?
 
@Wipqozn You told me to talk to Ronan, when I WAS talking to Ronan.
 
@GnomeSlice oh, okay.
You just asked me and what not, so I was confused.
 
10:08 PM
@Gnome I have rendered anything yet. So if you're uploading it them yes.
 
This is a confusing conversation to walk in on!
 
@Mana You're confusing to walk in on.
 
It's strange, the other one SAYS it has a frame size of 720, but it's only 4mb. It also only lists one dimension. The new one is 1920x1080 and 28.8mb. Sounds more like it.
 
We should make a video editing and general technical things.
 
@ArdaXi you're confusing by walking in.
 
10:11 PM
@RonanForman Like a post?
 
Oh good, @RonanForman! I was hoping you would show up.
 
I missed the subject there didn't I.
I meant chat room.
 
Woo! Rammus champion spotlight!
Unsurprisingly, the comment thread is 90% ok.
 
For the new Game on! structure, I'm hoping that we can record some of our sessions and upload them to youtube. I'm thinking we could record and upload one or two sessions a month. I have no experience with that kind of thing, so I was hoping you could take charge on that. I'm looking for volunteers to record and edit videos, but it would be a good idea to have someone on board who has experience with it.
I'm really not sure what's involved in,well.. recording and editing videos to be honest, or uploading them to youtube... so you know.
 
I'm not very great at actual video production.
 
10:15 PM
@GnomeSlice good thing I'm asking @RonanForman ;)
 
@Wipqozn I meant 'video production' as in 'cameras, lighting, actors, filming, etc.'
High Definition upload.
 
I literally didn't do any video editing until that race for wool thing.
 
@RonanForman oh, haha.
 
I did the video editing of this.
Oh god... please don't watch it.
 
You just posted it!
 
10:19 PM
@GnomeSlice Is that you?
the guy, that is. in the jacket.
 
@Wipqozn Yes, unfortunately.
I was the only guy in the group.
 
@Wipqozn I managed to snag PlayClaw while it was free from GiveawayOfTheDay, so I'd be glad to volunteer to record
 
@RonanForman Just posted what?
 
I've got a fairly powerful machine too
 
I use Blueberry Pro Recorder.
Although it doesn't seem to do well with very graphically intensive games.
 
10:20 PM
@Gnome If you had posted the splash on our channel I could have downloaded it from there.
 
Oh jeez, my 'acting.'
@RonanForman youtubedownloader? I'm uploading it to dropbox as we speak anyway.
 
was about to ask @GnomeSlice, I've only ever seen Fraps and PlayClaw used for intensive DirectX games and such
 
I'd kind of like it to be on my channel, since it's a piece of work I've done.
 
@GnomeSlice just don't mention the part where you're in it, lol
 
@IanPugsley You can see some performance drops here:
It's not very smooth.
 
10:22 PM
@GnomeSlice So is the moral of that story that @GnomeSlice is an abusive lover, and also a player?
 
@GnomeSlice you look very awkward going for the hug from behind at 1:10
 
Works fine for Minecraft, at least.
@FallenAngelEyes No kidding
 
I read some about the technical aspects of PlayClaw vs Fraps - apparently Fraps limits your game FPS to the FPS of the video you're recording
have yet to test it out though, haven't been able to make the last few Game On!s
 
@IanPugsley I think Blueberry is technically designed for doing software tutorials.
Although... not sure, there's an option for recording games.
 
omg @GnomeSlice, you're a terrible person. You beat the hell out of her!

A: Several sites are missing from the December 2011 data dump

Geoff DalgasThese will be included in the next data dump in three months from now.

 
user30
>:
 
@Wipqozn It wasn't my idea.
 
@GnomeSlice the 'girlfriend' looks like she's always trying not to smile
 
Blueberry is brilliant for flash games.
@FallenAngelEyes That's because we're all terrible actors.
It wasn't an acting class, it was a video class.
And before anyone asks, yes, the blonde girl whose ass I checked out is the girl I'm always whinging about.

@GnomeSlice lol.
 
10:26 PM
Can someone tell me if I've got the dreidel hat?
 
@RonanForman Yes, you do.

Q: Best Place to Shoot Technicals to Disable Them

Alex MillerWhen trying to disable a technical or other vehicle, is there a particularly good place to fire at them (such as the engine block or cab) or will shooting it enough times in any place cause it to explode.

 
So, have we given up on the Frozen Synapse tournament?
 
10:28 PM
@ThomasMcDonald You can knot?
 
↑ if you need more games to buy
 
@Steve No, he cannot knot.
 
Not knot?
 
@badp Something doesn't like "—"s in titles.
 
10:38 PM
 
@stevether it puts the hunny in the basket or IT GETS THE HOSE.
 
honey?
 
@badp Arkham City #3? Really? :/
 
@Gnome What format is that?
 
10:43 PM
@RonanForman Mpeg-2
 
@FallenAngelEyes Did you not like it?
 
@Wipqozn Impossible, as it is done.
 
@Ullallulloo I'm hoping they won't make another, even though I know they are
 
@Wipqozn No tankball?
 
@FallenAngelEyes Why? D:
They're awesome.
 
10:45 PM
Dammit, I've used up all of my daily stars.
 
@GnomeSlice There's a limit?
 
@Ullallulloo 30
 
@Ullallulloo 30
 
@Wipqozn You lose.
 
@Ullallulloo Yeah. This isn't the first time I've reached it either.
 
10:46 PM
@ArdaXi Damn.
 
ಠ_ಠ
Only game I have. Spiral Knights.
 
@Ullallulloo AA was great. Easily my GotY for 2009. AC, it felt the narrative really suffered from trying to cram so many villains in at once. The gameplay was decent, not much changed, but I really don't know how they can advance in this series without the setting and plot getting downright stupid.
 
@GnomeSlice You only have to wait about 1 hour and 15 minutes at least.
 
@ArdaXi I also have A.W.E.
its achievement is super hard
 
@Gnome Premier won't import it, and there's no sound.
 
10:47 PM
It's a bonus campaign of 5 missions. After a hour I was about 50% through the first mission and dead
 
@RonanForman Wh... it's like, THE standard video file.
 
@badp I could get that one in a second. SK, not so much.
 
The objectives are only found in missions 2-5
@ArdaXi Really?

Q: Game On! restructered

WipqoznSo, it's taken me awhile (due to school), but I've finally come up with the promised restructuring of Game on!.The new structure I've decided on is a combination of badp's idea and my own. The New Structure The new system will work on a four-week cycle. For three weeks, we will play two main ...

 
@badp Yep.
 
10:48 PM
@RonanForman saveyoutube.com
 
@Gnome it says it's an invalid video container.
 
@ArdaXi Make sure you record it so I can copycat!!
 
You really don't know me well, do you?
 
@RonanForman Er... that's a new one... Just download it from youtube then.
 
...hehe, red shark wizard
 
10:49 PM
@ArdaXi Fine, how much reps do you need?
 
What? No.
 
Character creation in SWTOR is too stressful...because you'll have to look at their ugly mug close-up forever
 
OH FUCK.
 
@GnomeSlice I thought that was SOPA related
2
 
None of this cutscene-type stuff in WoW
 
10:50 PM
@ArdaXi My usual approach isn't working here!
 
I rendered it without sound.
WHAT AN IDIOT.
 
@badp My usual approach works with every game but Spiral Knights.
 
Can you take the audio from the previous one, Ronan?
x_x
For God's sake, I'm an idiot.
@badp Eh, he has my permission to use it.
I can't believe I rendered it without sound...
 
@NickT char creation is so awful in that game
 
@GnomeSlice not the point
 
10:51 PM
@Gnome Yeah that's fine, I'll render them together when I scale it.
 
@GnomeSlice I think he meant save as in rescue, not save as in download.
 
The body presets are so... ugh

Q: Is the type of Dremora summoned by the Sanguine Rose variable each time it is used?

voxanimusI just got the titular staff and it appears to summon a melee-type Dremora Kynreeve every time I use it. Will this ever change?

 
@Gnome I do that all the time.
 
@RonanForman Try to get it so that the music starts when the first word lands.
(doesn't know anything about SOPA)
 
10:52 PM
I have 2 coal now.
 
Jeez, now I need to re-render and re-upload it AGAIN with sound.
 
@ArdaXi how far in do you have to get to do the spiral knights achievement? I played it once, but kind of went "meh" about it
 
They're the same length, so it's fine.
 
I don't know.
 
Also, does anyone know if the FS tournament bracket is out of date?
 
10:53 PM
@GnomeSlice Do you need some super pinging for that purpose?
 
@badp ...Perhaps.
It's going to be harder for me to edit it now though.
 
@agent86 you don't
 
I don't have as nice a version of Photoshop on my desktop.
 
It's a very easy achievement to get
 
@FallenAngelEyes That's good. :)
 
10:55 PM
Can't we band together for it someday?
 
Oh good, the Diggle Nog achievement wasn't too difficult to get.
 
@GnomeSlice doneded
 
I was pinged?
 
@ArdaXi Game 11 doesn't have your result
 
@badp Thanks.
 
10:57 PM
@ArdaXi I can whenever you want.
 
But I haven't played much.
 
You know you don't have to superping me if I'm active in the room, right?
 
What's a superping? Pings even if they haven't visited in a while?
 
Yep.
 
10:58 PM
@ArdaXi Once I was superpinging somebody it was easier to superping all the way
 
@Arda But superpings sound cool!
 
They sound the same. ಠ_ಠ
 
They sound different?
Oh.
 
(basically it lets moderators make a very normal chat reply to anrybody, regardless of whether or not they've been on that room or on chat. They're not supposed to look and feel different.)
 
I meant the name, it's just more super.
 
10:59 PM
You're super.
 
Thank you, have a whale: ._.
 
If I wanted to put in an entry in Raymond Chen's inbox I could do that right this second (okay actually it takes 15 minutes). Which is why it's a mod-only power.

One of the key underpinnings in distributed systems is you can't tell failure from extreme slowness.

drneelIs there a way to fast travel when you are in the sky? Something along the lines of the whistle in the first game or whatever was in Windwaker?

@badp For what it's worth, Steam just downloaded a Cave Story update that added about 100mb for me.
So I'm assuming the Steam version now has better musics or w/e.

Q: What is the purpose of cacti?

KareenLanayru Desert is covered with cacti. I realize they hold bombs at a nice height for the beetle to pick them, but do they have another purpose? You can bash on them and get the bark off, but can you destroy them? Do they hide anything valuable?

Q: How do I cook roasts?

Dave McClellandSteam's holiday sale added the "Holiday Dinner" achievement to Psychonauts. The description is: Cook and consume two different kinds of roast in one sitting. I played through about half the game previously before getting distracted, and remember nothing about cooking roasts. Where do I go...

 
If necessary, a heavy arrow gun is welded on, providing a high rate of fire for (statistically) easier knee targeting.
 
I wonder if GnomeSlice will try Spiral Knights if I told him he could get a TF2 hat out of it,
Oh and a possible gift from the Steam gift grab.
