I don't think I've capped since the start of this.
hmm, yeah, at 150 a couple of days there.

Q: How can I acquire an Eevee with its Hidden Ability?

Jonathan DrainEevee's hidden ability is Anticipation. Other than by trading or events that have already passed, How can I legitimately acquire an Eevee (or one of its evolutions) with its Hidden Ability?

 
I've rep capped every time I've tried to rep cap, but I think that atm there probably isn't enough activity to rep cap even if I tried
short of raising enough questions/answers to rep cap from one upvote to each
 
indeed.
 
which is actually how I'm probably going to do it
since I need that many answers to get the 30 answer hat
 
2:20 PM
Is there any way to sort out the list of 'unanswered' questions so it's in date order or something?
 
thanks
 
I got a message from my friend, who I got started on KSP
> Grr... I think I'm just gonna build spaceplanes til they get RCS and ASAS fixed
 
do you know what, I've never seen that unanswered tab just there before
 
I just started laughing :P
Also, grats, @murgatroid99 !
 
2:23 PM
@SaintWacko is he wasting RCS fuel with ASAS?
Also, what do we do about questions that are dupes of another question that has been migrated off Arqade?

Q: How can I get the Razer Spectre to auto change profile?

Ioan LoosleyI got this gaming mouse for Christmas and I've been fiddling with the profile settings but it won't change colour. For example, I set a profile for VLC, but when I open it nothing happens. Do I set it to the process exe or run exe?

 
@MBraedley That's only a dupe if Razer uses the same software, it's a different mouse
But if it's off topic here it's off topic, I think migrating would be the best bet
 
@MBraedley Yes
Is there a fix for that?
He said when he activates SAS on a station with RCS, it just continuously fires
 
@BenBrocka I'd be surprised if it isn't the same software. It's the same issue that users have been complaining about, so I'd imagine if they'd changed it, they would have included that feature
@SaintWacko turn off RCS
 
@MBraedley Why would Razer and RAT use the same software?
 
@SaintWacko hah, I'm not awake yet
 
2:29 PM
@MBraedley Ah, okay :P
 
Good thing the system didn't actually let me flag that

Q: What do I lose when I start a New Game Plus?

Ben BrockaIt seems I lose some fairly important stuff when resetting to a New Game Plu. Some stuff acts like I never stopped playing, some stuff acts like I just started the game. What all do I lose when restarting? What's important for me to know when restarting a New Game Plus?

 
Well this has just gone to show that I need coffee
 
I'm playing DCSS on CSZO if anyone wants to watch
 
2:52 PM
seriously there is nothing that I can answer on this site
@MBraedley if we're migrating mice questions we should probably migrate this too

Q: Setting modes on a Cyborg R.A.T. 7

blackbull77I bought a Cyborg R.A.T. 7 mouse and it's a awesome mouse, but I've been having trouble trying to setting the 3 modes. I was trying to set the profiles for a default, Call of Duty, and Counter Strike. The whole software isn't really user friendly, so I very confused on what I'm doing.

So dead at work today
I should have just taken this week off.
 
OW
Just got killed by an ogre
Hit for 30 damage >.<
 
@RavenDreamer answering while I'm half way through answering! :p
 
I didn't get where I am today with slow typing skills!

Q: Guild Wars 2 wintersday hat

naterIs there a wintersday hat for Guild Wars 2? I only saw one in the Black Lion trading company but was there one that was given out on December 25th? Like on the first Guild Wars?

Q: downloaded cataclysm, buying pandaria?

cody4325OK so I have downloaded world of Warcraft cataclysm off the site, but I want pandaria now, my mom told be she would rather buy the disk then have me download it, if I were to buy the game from the store would I be able to play still even though the other versions are not store bought?

Q: In Skyrim on PS3 Lydia's starting gear is gone

thyme4jbWhen I reached level 41 (don't know if that had anything to do with it or not), I was thinking of giving Lydia some different armor, and when I went into her inventory list all her steel armor was gone: gauntlets, boots, chest armor, everything! She had all the ebony stuff I had given her, but n...

 
@SaintWacko This would be why I mentioned my hate for Giant Spiked Clubs the other day.
@murgatroid99 Poke me when you get in. We have some discussives to talk about.
 
@GraceNote That was through scale mail, too -.-
 
Ooh, top secret discussions
 
@SaintWacko "Giant spiked clubs are the largest, most powerful melee weapons in the game, requiring two hands to wield, very high skill to swing quickly, and only usable by troll or ogre players."
 
@GraceNote Yep
 
3:10 PM
My run last night was ended by Blork the Orc.
 
At least he rhymes
 
Game Center CX is so great. I watched this one last night. It's funny seeing how much he messes up.
(on PaRappa the Rappa in this case)
 
@BenBrocka He also wears rainbow suspenders.
 
Is he a hip hop or R&B artist?
 
Actually, much to my misfortune, he is both a spellcaster and a dangerous melee fighter.
 
3:13 PM
Sounds totally fair
 
I'll leave it to you to figure out which music style corresponds to which fighting style.
 
Clearly those of your who play Roguelikes should play Dark Souls.
 
@Powerlord I keep meaning to get it, but I hear the PC port is just terrible
@GraceNote Ah, yeah, that guy's dangerous
 
@SaintWacko I really despise companies that do shitty PC ports.
 
Not as bad as that bastard Rupert, though
 
3:17 PM
@Powerlord Aspyr is the worst company.
 
@Powerlord And I don't have a PS3, so I'm SOL
 
@Powerlord I have oft considered it. But also have not done so. I have Baroque at the moment but I still haven't even so much as put it in my Wii.
 
Apparently Aspyr now ports windows games to Mac, but they used to port console games to PC.
 
@SaintWacko I thought it was also on the 360.
 
And they did a shit poor job of it.
 
3:18 PM
@Powerlord Is it?
@StrixVaria Aspyr's been porting games to Mac for a long time
 
@Powerlord Yeah, just found that. I was thinking of Demon's Souls
 
Dark Souls is the "spirtual sequel"
 
Ah, that's right
 
But yeah, Demon's Souls is PS3 only (no PC port either)
 
3:21 PM
@SaintWacko I don't pay any attention to Mac stuff.
 
> In GameSpy's review of the PC version, the port was referred to as "shabby", citing the game's limit of 30 frames per second, poor mouse and keyboard controls, and nonadjustable resolution
(about Dark Souls)
 
@Powerlord Nonadjustable resolution? That's just stupid. Even consoles support that now.
 
(I was quoting wikipedia there btw)
 
which stack exchange website would be best to refer a friend of mine to for Computer Repair? (specifically Labtop, if that matters)
 
great
expect a whole load of trolls to head over here at some point
since they're all wondering why I stopped using their forum
 
3:24 PM
seems to fall under superuser, ima just send him there and worst case he gets migrated
 
@pixel Eh?
 
nothing
 
~Check and turn the signal to the right~
 
@Powerlord There is one, but it wasn't a good port, luckily a guy managed to salvage it with a mod.
 
@Krazer Again, that's Dark Souls, not Demon's Souls.
 
3:28 PM
@Ender They do software and hardware, so yeah, it'd fit on Super User, but make sure he can narrow down what his whole problem is and all that ahead of time.
 
Yea I told him to read the FAQ and all that. Sadly he's a bit of a dunce so he'll no doubt screw something up. Thats ok, thats what WERE for lol
 
@StrixVaria Neither do I, the only reason I know that is because I remember seeing some PC game for mac by Aspyr on sale a long time ago
 
@Powerlord I always mix up the two >_<
 
Good morning, @AshleyNunn
 
user15026
Good morning! :)
 
3:32 PM
@AshleyNunn So, manage to get your hands on 999 yet?
I wonder if Nintendo will ever allow DS games in the eShop.
 
user15026
@powerlord indeed I have. I like it so far - I am just a little ways in, but the story is very intriguing.
 
@AshleyNunn btw, I highly suggest you memorize (or write down) the solutions to the various puzzles.
 
user15026
Oh? Do I need the information again later?
 
...the game has six endings and it's a lot of... guesswork to get all 6.
and you'll have to start over from the beginning.
Of course, you can fast forward past text you've already seen.
Thankfully, Virtues Last Reward introduces the Flow system because it'd be a lot more irritating for that one.
 
user15026
Wow. Huh. Okay. Good to know!
 
3:38 PM
Anyway, the point is that you'll have to go through the Escape sequences multiple times. :|
 
@Powerlord I don't think the coffin end counts as it's basically the same as the true end.
 
@Krazer It's a separate icon on the Save screen.
 
@Powerlord But if you get the true end, it will count as having gotten the coffin end as well. You're not be missing any part of the story if you skip it.
 
@Krazer Only if you... wait, spoilers abound!
 
Oh, dear
Just ran into Pikel and Blork the Orc
in the same room
 
3:41 PM
Therefore, we must now start talking about tasty bacon strips.
 
user15026
Mmmmm bacon!
 
@AshleyNunn So yeah, feel free to go through whichever doors you want. To get all the endings, you'll have to go through all 9 eventually.
 
Bacon pizza
 
...and the better endings require you to go through certain doors in a certain order.
Then again, you may get clues as you play as to what order that is
 
3:48 PM
Bacon world
 
@Krazer That is most certainly the land where the holy grail can be found
 
Jin
@Krazer heaven....
I recognize Mount Lard in the background.
 
More baconscapes
 
oh drama
me luvs drama
no, not really
 
Jin
@Krazer where are you finding these??
 
3:51 PM
@Krazer Your last 3 images were not found. Just use the upload button to quickly rehost on imgur so that doesn't happen.
 
Jin
@StrixVaria i can see them just fine
 
@Jin It's still a good habit to get into.
 
@Jin carlwarner.com under portfolio->foodscapes
 
@StrixVaria As you wish.
 
3:55 PM
gravatar is broken enough to prevent me from updating my avatar
 
Jin
@pixel i think gravatar has like a 10-15mins caching timer before a newer image is updated
 
@Jin It's been about 30 minutes so far
also, chat.se updates names slower than the rest of the network
 
wat
 
@Krazer I meant there's an upload button just to the right of the chat box. If you click that, then paste your URL, the chat handles all the annoying bits and oneboxes the images in a more guaranteed way.
That bacon river really is...something.
 
Jin
I got bacon flavored chapstick one year. it was yummy. it's like putting soft lard on your lips
 
3:59 PM
@pixel Your gravatar is different if I click on you for more info, on the main site, and at the top right list of people. It's not different on the left next to each of your messages, though.
Welcome to @OrigamiRobot's hell.
 
@StrixVaria It's showing as different for me now
oh
well, kinda
 
I think it depends on the size.
It updated for some sizes but not all.
 
well size does matter
3
 
Jin
@pixel TWSS
 
with any luck, everything else will finish updating so I can stop stressing about internet randoms stalking me
@Jin YAWN
 
4:01 PM
ctrl F5, it's updated now
 
it will sort itself out eventually
 
It looks like the gravatar.com server tells the browser to only cache only 5 minutes.
 
Jin
btw Hitman Absolution is great
 
I'm not happy with my new choice of name, but I will pick a new one when I have the care to do so
just to confuse you all and keep you on your toes
 
You are aware that there is a 30 day limit on how often you can change your name, correct?
 
4:04 PM
@GraceNote I can wait 30 days
 
Okiedokie.
 
my main worry was a 20-30 people on a forum I used to use actively searching for me
 
Ha, nahahaha, I see. I know what you mean.
 
user15026
@Powerlord Good to know. :)
 
user15026
@Krazer These are making me hungry XD
 
4:09 PM
Oh, great, now I have to remember who @kalina is :P
 
no you don't
 
Also, there seem to be a lot more uniques in trunk then there used to be
@kalina Oh?
 
:p
did you know that if you refresh chat with a notification up, the notification stays up forever?

Q: About heroes and chance packs in BLR

KalecI've recently started playing Blacklight: Retribution, and I like it (a lot), so I want to sink some money into it. My questions stand as follows: 1) If I buy a hero, I still have my default avatar if I wish to play with it ? 2) If I buy a hero, his / her weapon unlocks apply only to him / her...

 
@kalina o.0
 
4:14 PM
Apparently there's bacon cologne
 
Jin
as much as I love bacon products, bacon lube is where I draw the line.
4
 
I <3 lajatangs
@Jin I like bacon, but not so much bacon products
My sister keeps getting me bacon themed things
 
why won't gravatar let me upload a new image!?
RAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGEEEEEEE
 
Jin
@SaintWacko the only good bacon product is probably the original bacon salt. it's actually useful.
 
@Jin That does sound good
 
Jin
4:17 PM
@SaintWacko it's really what started all this bacon product frenzy.
@SaintWacko jdfoods.net/products/baconsalt.php it's really good.
 
@Jin What about baconnaise?
 
Jin
@Krazer i had it. it's just soo soo. not that great.
the worst is probably the bacon popcorn. tastes nothing like bacon
@jzy how much grease smell do you get when doing that? When I pan fry the kitchen smells like grease for 24 hours no matter what I do
@BenBrocka this is a problem, why?
 
@Jin Yeah, it's been showing up on woot for a long time
@Jin That's like complaining about your jacket smelling like campfire smoke
 
Jin
 
It needs to stop raining. I am getting bored and napping in a Volkswagen is uncomfortable.
 
user15026
4:25 PM
@SaintWacko Yeah, I had bacon marmelade, it was not as good as I wanted it to be
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz That sounds like much not-fun
 
@kalina Why won't it?
 
it's worked now
before it was getting to crop then returning to image selection
 
That sounds annoying.
 
@AshleyNunn Bacon jam is the way to go.
 
4:27 PM
bacon jam does not sound good
 
user15026
@Krazer You are a terrible enabler for making me drool over foodstuff.
 
@AshleyNunn delicious things are better shared~
 
user15026
@Krazer But I am getting drool all over my keyboard! XD
 
Whoa, massive ballistomycete colony
 
3 days left to get Mobiloid
 
4:31 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz At least it's only rain.
 
@AshleyNunn Luckily lunch time is just around the corner~
 
user15026
@Krazer This is a very true thing. I think I might make awesome grilled cheese for lunch.
 
@AshleyNunn Stop making me jealous!
 
user15026
@Powerlord Sorry! I would share if I could
 
user15026
....I wonder if bacon marmeladegoes on grilled cheese.
 
4:37 PM
I'm at work, normally the guy in our snack shop makes grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch (you can get them with just cheese or with certain meat products (bacon isn't an option)), but he's gone this week.
 
user15026
@Powerlord :( :( :(
 
Mmm, grilled ham and cheese on texas toast bread.
 
@Jin Sometimes I do eat things that are not bacon, and the bacon smell interferes with the enjoyment of most non-bacon things.
 
But nooo.... not only is he not here to make it, I can't even eat lunch until 1pm today because someone has to be up front between noon and 1pm today while one of our receptionists has lunch and guess who got nominated to do it because Michelle is out sick?!
 
user15026
@Powerlord That sounds super not fun :(
 
4:40 PM
(There are only like 6 people in the office today. In an office of like 80 people.)
 
user15026
@Powerlord O.o
 
@Powerlord We're about half here. No one's getting anything done though
Though I actually had a meeting and got my next project so I haven't died of boredom yet
 
Hell, I'm not getting anything done.
All my meetings have been cancelled at least!
 
user15026
The university is shut down until the 2nd, so I am happily at home in my pajamas doing nothing (well, I did inquire about a few apartments, so that counts as productivity, right?)
 
I should have taken this week off like everyone else did.
 
4:42 PM
I didn't want to waste the 3 vacation days on what's already a 3 day week
 
I specifically didn't take off this week because I knew how dead it would be.
 
btw, 6 people was a bit of an exaggeration, but I personally have only seen 6 people, but I know a few more people are here from the messenger. Of course, some of those may be working from home.
 
I'd rather use my time off on times where it's more meaningful.
 
I usually use my vacation days to give myself random 4 day weekends (and 2 4 day work weeks)
 
Messenger says 12 people are here.

Q: What causes enemies to reset?

BrysonicI've been playing an Engineer recently, and although it can be fun to kite enemies instead of going toe-to-toe with them, I sometimes have a problem with enemies resetting before I have a chance to kill them. When this occurs, the enemy stops chasing you, returns to where they were when you first...

 
But again, some of those may be on the VPN... it they don't mark it in their status, I have no clue.
 
@BenBrocka I like to take off random days in the middle of the week. Two short 2-day weeks with a break in between is pretty awesome.
 
At least I get a 4-day weekend this weekend too!
 
I have "work" on New Years Eve, but we generally get sent home really early and who accomplishes anything on a Monday morning anyway?
 
@StrixVaria I'll get back to you on that.
 
4:46 PM
Oh, darn, a mummy death curse
I can no longer take off my 4/6 ring of slaying :P
 
I'll be locked out of my work buildings on the 31st and 1st, so I don't have a choice.
 
@AshleyNunn at home in PJs is the best way to spend Christmas break
 
user15026
@MBraedley Yeah, so far it is turning out quite fantastic. :)
 
@Powerlord Hey, me too!
 
Grr, KSP seems to be having DNS problems. Or I'm having DNS problems
 
4:49 PM
Uh oh
 
@RavenDreamer Yo, what do I need to do to let someone play a .exe of my game?
 
arrows of dispersal
This could end badly
 
@Mana You made a game?
 
Oh that is a lot of things wanting to kill me
 
What? pixel got a new gravatar and name? Looks like I will constantly think she is @Powerlord and/or @JasonBerkan
 
4:52 PM
@OrigamiRobot What?
 
Just because it's red?
 
red and yellow
 
Oh, she changed avatar a second time.
 
@OrigamiRobot ?
 
4:54 PM
This is worse than the @GraceNote / @BenBrocka debacle
 
it's fine I'll shift the colours out of the @OrigamiRobot-is-colourblind zone
 
@OrigamiRobot you have the worst eyes ever
 
Is it time to go home yet?
 
@BenBrocka I have simulated human vision.
 
@BenBrocka This was back when I was on my IT Sec avatar and you were Tap-tap.
This one I can at least actually see where he might be coming from in.
 
4:55 PM
mine is an angel
@Powerlord is the spy
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm pretty sure chlorophyll sees color better than you do
 
I fail to see the problem
 
user15026
@kalina When it is tiny, and all I can tell is the colour scheme...
 
this is disgraceful
 
@kalina He focuses primarily on color mapping.
 
4:56 PM
@GraceNote because red and silver totally look the same
 
@kalina When you said this, I honestly thought you were @JasonBerkan.
 
@OrigamiRobot we are no longer friends, sorry
 
@kalina the problem is you have a new name and new avatar. People will think you're totally new
 
@MBraedley I am 100% fine with that, it's not my problem!
 
@Powerlord been making games for the past year
 
4:57 PM
@MBraedley That isn't really the issue here. It's perchance an issue but it's not the issue here.
 
@BenBrocka I outlined how the red matched up.
1 min ago, by kalina
@MBraedley I am 100% fine with that, it's not my problem!
 
since @OrigamiRobot has gir with green eyes, I am going to use gir with red eyes.
 
I outlined how your face is stupid
 
@kalina DON'T DO IT THAT GETS YOU BANNED
 
@OrigamiRobot citation needed
 
5:00 PM
 
@OrigamiRobot bans
 
@kalina Ask anyone how long it took for me to get suspended as red GIR
 
@OrigamiRobot my understanding of that incident is that you acted like GnomeSlice
when my gravatar next expires, it will be pink
Is that OK for you?
you know what, it doesn't matter if it's ok with you or not.
 
Good, because it's not.
 
I don't care what you think.
 
5:07 PM
I'm sick and I'm going to be difficult no matter what.
 
boohoo
 
@OrigamiRobot robots don't get sick
 
@MBraedley virus.exe
I installed it last week
it's been slowly eating away at all of his available resources since
 
@kalina As long as it wasn't whiterabbit.obj
 
@GraceNote I'm back
 
5:12 PM
@kalina Now you look like @Macha
 
@OrigamiRobot do you know how many fucks I give?
that's right. None.
 
@OrigamiRobot woah, I'd forgotten about them.
 
@murgatroid99 So, what did you ascend with?
 
Now on a more serious note
 
@GraceNote lawful human valkyrie
 
5:13 PM
Since you have the black plague
@OrigamiRobot are you playing GW2?
 
@kalina No, I have to go to work.
 
@OrigamiRobot Your loss, enjoy!
 
Quick, shove it out the airlock!
 
I had heard that was basically the easiest to ascend with
 
@murgatroid99 Hah, that was almost my second ascension. Except I apparently didn't use my Unicorn Horn after a hit from Pestilence that time. So close and yet so far...
 
5:14 PM
@kalina You said you weren't my friend anymore anyway.
 
@OrigamiRobot fine
 
@GraceNote One time recently I died because I got sick from Juiblex and I didn't notice, and then I just sat in a magic trap until I died
 
hah, yeah, I remember the time that I died.......
 
hah, yeah, I remember the time that I killed Mana.......

Q: Is it possible to increase the the local Vis Aura?

lunboksI discovered my base is in an area with very low background magic, which is unfortunate. Is there a way to grow/strengthen the nearest aura node? I know Crystal Clusters help a bit, but they can only push the background Vis to 110%, which is next to nothing in my case (80 → 88), and they ge...

 
5:17 PM
@murgatroid99 Ouch indeed.
Well, congratulations are in order. Congratulations on your first ascension!
 
@GraceNote thanks
 
I should still have snapshots from my first ascension.
 
As long as it wasn't your Ultima Ascension. I heard that one is pretty bad.
 
@GraceNote yeah, I took pictures of every page of my death information (except I accidentally missed the second page of my inventory)
 
I kept a save file of each ascension, standing on the altar just before offering the amulet. But apparently I only took screenshots of my later ones, not my first one.
At least I have photographic proof of my possession of the corpse of "Sir Gallant The Totally Not Rotting".
What was your score, out of curiosity?
 
5:23 PM
In DCSS, I mistook a lava crab for a regular crab once. Fatal mistake
 
@GraceNote 5,284,954
 
Ooh, outscored my first two ascensions. Nice.
And only level 20? Impressive.
 
I feel like I shouldn't have left behind the other 4 artifact weapons in my stash
 
@GraceNote iiiiiimppppreeessiiiiiveeee
 
or done something with the 40k gold in it
I have to go. I'll be back in a bit
 
5:26 PM
Take care~
You probably shouldn't have left them, yeah, if you had the room for them.
Looking through the old pics brings back nice memories.

Q: Windows 8 gaming performance compared to Windows 7

warsongI have seen several people who switched to 8 from 7 say that they have experienced a 10-15% boost in FPS and performance across several modern games including Skyrim. Have any benchmarks been done that show if this is true? Does this sound likely?

 
5:39 PM
@GraceNote For more nice memories, play DCSS! Or watch my game!
Now showing on CSZO
The only bad thing about bladed weapons: hydrae
 
@Mana I wanna play
 
@GnomeSlice there isn't much of a game yet, it's just jumping on platforms
 
@Mana I want to play your game with my music
 
@GnomeSlice you do mainly chiptune stuff though, right? That's not going to work well with the aesthetic here
 
@Mana the game you made using my music, the appathon one
I thought you were coming up with a way for people to play it without windows phones
=[
 
5:52 PM
@GnomeSlice oh
@GnomeSlice no, we're working on shipping it for WP first
seeing if we can breach the market there
get some feedback
then finetune for a bit
then if we can, ship a version to other platforms
 
@Mana WP?
 
@GnomeSlice windows phone
 
Oh.
WF
 
the one I'm working on atm is for this competition being hosted by the U of T game dev club
 
@Mana What is it

@GnomeSlice you're a dude made out of ink going around solving puzzles by becoming different colors
