ElfSlice

@Yuki I'm down.

@ErraticFox Lots of stuff. I listen to electronic mostly, but that's still pretty vague. ;]

FAE

@ElfSlice Oh that, yes, you can pay money when they die to repair them but it keeps getting more expensive.

@ElfSlice The repair kit is for free.

ErraticFox

@ElfSlice like who? I love Rameses B.

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox I love Rameses B

FAE

@Yuki I don't think my twitch skills are good enough tonight to be anything but a hindrance. :(

ErraticFox

12:02 AM

I KNOW RIGHT?!

ElfSlice

He's so good

ErraticFox

Blackmill?

ElfSlice

One of my favourites recently

Never heard of that one

►

ErraticFox

OMG

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox Currently my favourite track ^

ErraticFox

12:02 AM

LOOK HIM UP

Blackmill on YouTube

I'm in love with Rameses new EP.

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox Which one, Russ? Or Timeless.

The Russ EP is more electro than his other stuff.

It was for some festival or something.

@Lazers Dupe votes needed.

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox This is awesome

@ErraticFox I'm guessing you like Seven Lions?

ErraticFox

OMGGGG YUSSS

ElfSlice

12:05 AM

Of course. ;]

@ErraticFox How about A.N.O.?

►

@ErraticFox Or Fractal? music.monstercat.com/album/elements-ep

ErraticFox

Eh, I've listed to them but only through YouTube from like YouTube mixes.

KitFox

What does the fox say?

ErraticFox

I've heard of Fractal.

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox Phutureprimitive?

Really into him lately

Check out this album: phutureprimitive.bandcamp.com/album/kinetik

ErraticFox

Never heard

Hmm

ElfSlice

12:06 AM

Man, give it a listen.

ErraticFox

I can't name off right now.

Will do :]

ElfSlice

I'm gonna go back to my game if that's okay

we can talk tunes later maybe?

ErraticFox

Yes same. :3

ElfSlice

that album is one of my favourites ever

every track is good

Oh, also

ErraticFox

Q: Halo 4 controls

I just got Halo 4 for the xbox 360 and I can't get the controls right. Can anyone help me? I tried just moving the controller around pressing buttons, but it won't work.

ElfSlice

@ErraticFox Your loss.

ErraticFox

? D:

ElfSlice

@Yuki How's it coming?

Yuki

@ElfSlice Just had dinner. Am I connecting to you or vice-versa?

ElfSlice

12:25 AM

@Yuki I should probably connect to you.

I hope it works.

@Yuki is it okay if we wait a few?

I'm in a game right now, doing pretty well

FAE

@ElfSlice Good luck with this. Works fine for some people, dodgy for others.

ElfSlice

Gonna try to beat area 3

@FAE Yeah, I know, which means it will probably suck for me

Yuki

Ah. I'm trying to figure how to host a game.

ElfSlice

Nice, beat the third stage.

Q: GTA San Andreas Probems

I recently got GTA SA for my Computer. Whenever I attempt to start it it looks weird. When it starts up it is zoomed in so much to where I can only see the top left corner. I'm unable to zoom out or move around so I can proprely play. Please come up with a solution for this.

@Yuki It's tricky. It may lie and tell you your port is closed.

It seems like it has potential.

Wipqozn

Well, that went mostly well until I point.

Q: How do I take a vacation when I'm wearing too many hats?

I've been at my current job for a little over two years, during which I've not taken a vacation or used much of my paid time off. I know that if I do, odds are I'll end up getting phone calls or emails for important issues that only I am able to resolve. I'm unfortunately involved in most operati...

vacation

Very relevant during Winterbash

ElfSlice

@Wipqozn Which game?

Fluttershy

@ElfSlice Risk of Rain.

Wipqozn

12:33 AM

@ElfSlice Risk of Rain.

ElfSlice

Oh.

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn HA

ElfSlice

How far in is Temple of the Elders?

Wipqozn

I went appear offline on steam because I didn't want anyone messaging me. For some reason all messages show up in a hueg ass emssage bar.

Fluttershy

@ElfSlice Level 5.

ElfSlice

12:34 AM

Also @Wipqozn I wouldn't have pegged this as a game you'd like.

@Wipqozn Yeah mine does that too

Wipqozn

It's really annoying.

ElfSlice

@Fluttershy Oh.

Wipqozn

Plus I just felt like playing single player.

FAE

@Wipqozn This is a known issue.

Wipqozn

@FAE I'm surprised they have yet to fix it.

FAE

12:34 AM

If you have it set in the settings to 3x zoom, that happens.

Wipqozn

Is it a recent issue, or has it been present for a while?

FAE

@Wipqozn A while. Steam overlay doesn't even work at all for me. Can't figure out why. Thinking maybe dual monitors, but not sure.

Wipqozn

IT's odd because it shows both the original message and the larger one.

I blame the government.

FAE

@Wipqozn Yep.

ElfSlice

@Yuki Any luck?

Yuki

12:35 AM

I think so.

@ElfSlice Try IP: 76.30.60.31

Ronan Forman

@Wipqozn The original is the actual message, the large one is the message piped into the game and then scaled up with the rest of it. There's always 2, but they're the same size normally.

Wipqozn

@RonanForman Interesting.

ElfSlice

> Error: Failed to connect

sigh

Ronan Forman

@Wipqozn I assume it's so you can see the message regardless.

ElfSlice

Is the port supposed to be 11100?

Wipqozn

12:37 AM

@ElfSlice IT depends on the host.

11100 is the default, but the host can change the port when setting up the game.

ElfSlice

I bet it's my network settings preventing me from joining

Wipqozn

No, the online hosting is just fucked.

ElfSlice

ports or whatever

Wipqozn

I had to turn off my windows firewall to get it to work.

ElfSlice

They should use Steam servers for this

Yuki

12:38 AM

@ElfSlice Yeah.

Wipqozn

It'a also possible you don't have the proper ports open though. but the firewall will cause a problem too.

Fluttershy

@ElfSlice @FAE and I ended up having to use Hamachi.

ElfSlice

@Fluttershy Oh, it does work with Hamachi though?

@Yuki Want to try that?

Urgh, I don't even remember how people join hamachi networks

Yuki

Holy snap, I just did 3k damage.

At level 5.

ElfSlice

@Yuki Oh, I guess you aren't trying to host any more?

Wipqozn

12:41 AM

Also, the Engineer is a lot of fun.

Yuki

@ElfSlice I was hosting that game. You can't join while it's playing?

I'll give it another try.

FAE

@ElfSlice Yes. Apparently some people have experienced bad slowdown though, so I dunno. We didn't have that really, but just so you know.

@Wipqozn Agreed

Yuki

@ElfSlice Try again.

ElfSlice

@Yuki I told you I got an error, failed to connect.

Yuki

Ah.

ElfSlice

12:42 AM

Nope, no dice.

Same error.

@Yuki Want to try Hamachi?

behance.net/gallery/Mary-Poppins/13466023

Wipqozn

WEll, I need to vanish for a bit. I'll be back at some point, after which I'll probably quickly leave again.

Try not to miss me.

Impossible task, I know.

ElfSlice

You're so modest.

Yuki

@ElfSlice Try again?

I just don't feel like installing Hamachi right now...

ElfSlice

Failed again.

Yuki

Ugh.

ElfSlice

12:44 AM

I don't think it's going to work without it.

Nice n' broken.

Yuki

But I don't wanna Hamachi...

ElfSlice

We don't have to.

I'll just go back to SP I guess.

Ergh, I quit in my best run so far too

@Yuki What do you want to do

Yuki

@ElfSlice Ugh, you should have let me know if you were in your best run so far...

ElfSlice

I did lol, I told you I wanted to try to beat area 3

Yuki

In that case, I would have definitely have been willing to wait.

ElfSlice

12:46 AM

for the bandit unlock

All good

I beat area 3

then quit

Wipqozn

Also, @FAE, you should post your hamachi solution here:

Q: How to allow my friends to join my Risk of Rain match?

How do I allow my friends to join my Risk of Rain game so we can play co-op. I followed this tutorial. Is there anyway I can fix it? EDIT: It would say Failed to Connect for my friend.

risk-of-rain

oops.

Since hosting seems to be a common problem we should be posting our solutions here.

I get the feeling the user never plans to play again either, so none of the answers will probably be accepted.

ElfSlice

@Wipqozn You're back, I missed you!

FAE

@Wipqozn I shall do so but I can't tonight, really tired.

Wipqozn

@ElfSlice I missed me too. I'm fantastic.

ElfSlice

Bandit sucks

Wipqozn

12:48 AM

ANyways, now I'm actually leaving.

@FAE Fantastic.

ElfSlice

@Yuki If you decide you want to try Hamachi, there's already a group you can join

The ID is 'Arqadians' and the password is 'gaming'

I'm gonna go get something to eat I think

Yuki

Q: what is the bar that looks like a countdown?

Every level I play, the bar that rounds my HP (mea, drains itself. But after finishing the game, I see that it doesn't represent an important objective or goal... Is it a time limit, or do I achieve a bonus from that (a secret feature maybe)? Maybe an unfinished thing that the developers left?
