Q: Upgrading from 32 Bit to 64 Bit?

SuperPcowI realize this may not seem like the right forums for this, but I am trying to build a GAMING PC. So I've got a 32Bit laptop that runs source engine based GAMES pretty well and I'll like to upgrade it to a 64Bit computer. So what hardware will I need to acquire for this task?

Q: If I import the World State from the Keep will it erase my game progress in DA: I?

Jason MaeleI already started DA:I last night. But I did the Keep stuff just now. If I import my World State will it erase my current save from last night and will I have to restart my game or will it not affect my game save?

 
HI CHAT
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz hi
 
I HAVE BEER.
AND ALSO POPCORN.
BUT MOSTLY BEER.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz plz send teh beer
 
@MattGiltaji no. is mine.
NEW BELLE AND SEBASTIAN!
Also, 'Girls in Peacetime Want To Dance' is an A+++++++++++ Record Title.
 
12:47 AM
just finished SR4, tha5t==t was fun
 
I love how backwards my family is. My dad (and I) remembered that it was his and mom's anniversary while my mom forgot.
 
@badp dammit again?!
 
@badp Stop what you're doing and update Windows 2: Electric Boogaloo.
 
@MattGiltaji it's been released out of schedule as it's being actively exploited
 
12:50 AM
Stop what you're doing and update Windows 2: Stop what you're doing and update Windows-er
 
@badp It's a bug against domain controllers though, so "meh"
 
@badp I'll just change the domain server's name to "comeatmebro" and see them try to take it down
 
Stop what you're doing and update Windows 2: The Wrath of Linux.
 
hai
 
Stop what you're doing and update Windows Into Darkness.
I'll stop now.
 
12:53 AM
i think the more important question is how do we blame this extra patching on @Wipqozn
 
@MattGiltaji Like this: Dammit @Wipqozn, it's all your fault.
 
@Yuuki Hey now, let's not go around placing blame.
 
@badp you do know that windows updates automatically, right?
 
@murgatroid99 depends on your settings
 
@MattGiltaji well, if you set it to anything else, you're an idiot
I say with an orange menu thing staring at me in chrome
 
12:57 AM
hey, is mass effect worth playing?
 
@Basil It's a pretty good trio of games.
 
@Basil I liked it, but no idea what your taste is
 
@MattGiltaji I like rpgs, dislike shooters sometimes, but really dislike horror-themed games
I can't even watch the alien movies
 
@Basil its much more sci fi than horror, but there are some body-snatcher type things going on
 
in skyrim, my favorite part was the civil war, but my least favorite part was the assassin's guild
 
12:59 AM
@Basil Mass Effect games are a cross between an RPG and a third person shooter. There isn't really much horror, it's strictly sci-fi.
 
i know that in the more recent ones, you can set the combat difficulty to easy so that you can focus on the story
 
@Wipqozn that's cool :) I don't know why so many sci-fi games are so horror-based, but when they're not, I really enjoy them :)
 
i don't remember about the original
 
How twitchy is the shooter aspect?
 
@Basil Not very twitchy.
 
1:01 AM
@Basil its more about taking proper shots than spraying bullets everywhere
 
@Basil not too much. You can pause to queue abilities and (I think) aim
 
this is sounding pretty good :) Thanks for the advice folks
 
@Basil go with female shepard for the win
maleshep is meh
 
It has my endorsement, which is all that matters anyway
 
I heard they have a pretty cool system for deciding some elements
 
1:02 AM
Just remember, if you play through the whole series, the ending will destroy any expectations you had that any of your choices matter
 
@Wipqozn I dunno, there's some body horror s--- going on during ME2.
 
@Yuuki ASSUMING CONTROL!
 
Maybe it's just me being overly sensitive, but I can't play through the ending of ME2.
 
Now I wonder if I should wait for a steam sale...
 
@MattGiltaji Also, the... other thing.
 
1:02 AM
@Yuuki did you not upgrade enough?
 
@MattGiltaji I did. Don't you still lose one person or something?
 
@Yuuki It's not terribly graphic, though I don't feel, just...conceptually horrific
 
@TimStone I'm no good with conceptual horror.
 
@Yuuki Nah, you can get a perfect ending.
 
1:04 AM
@Yuuki in the first one you have to lose one person, but if you do all the side quests and get full upgrades, I think you can get through without casualties in teh second
 
KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Okay, I know for a fact I posted that and got starred so it did exist.
Just sayin'.
I'll star it anyways.
 
@Yuuki I haven't been around for about 12 hours, so... YOLO
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz YOLO does not apply in a gaming chat room.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz WHY DOES FOX HATE AMERICA?
 
user15026
1:05 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Why is this a bad thing?
 
@Yuuki depends on the game
 
For a sec, I thought that peanuts trailer was for a game! That would make an awesome flight sim...
 
user15026
@Basil I'd play it.
 
@TimStone I wish I could bring up the point without spoilers.
 
@AshleyNunn PEANUTS SHOULD NOT BE 3D. :(
 
1:06 AM
@AshleyNunn Hmm, I should make some snoopy war thunder skins!
 
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Okay, yeah, I get that, but at the same time I am excited for it
 
I know, what a travesty
 
user15026
@Basil That sounds fun
 
problem is you can only draw on the planes, no 3d modeling
still, maybe a picture of snoopy
 
@AshleyNunn Also, wtf @ lame pop song midway through trailer instead of more Vince Guaraldi.
 
user15026
1:07 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Truth.
 
@AshleyNunn And so, I reiterate.

Hopefully, it'll get some kids interested in Peanuts and they'll go look at the old comics.
 
oh god the peanuts game
the flying one
well, it was just snoopy
/me cries it was so oooo bad
 
user15026
Yeah, it wasn't very good
 
@Yuuki ugh, now I'm digging through the ME2 wiki to remember what happens
 
1:10 AM
@MattGiltaji I apologize.
 
I won it on twitter, played it like twice and swore never to win anything on twitter again.

Q: How to fight brutes and officers in assassins creed unity?

would_like_to_be_anonCould you give tips and tricks on how to fight brutes and officers in assassins creed unity? I can't seem to find this information anywhere.

 
@djsmiley2k Congratulations, you won! Your prize is "not playing games Twitter gets you"!
 
oh wow the bridge is alive again, hi!
 
@Yuuki yeah, there is a "perfect" ending where no one dies, and other endings that are worse. It beats the ME3 ending by far
 
1:17 AM
@MattGiltaji Well, I think the perfect ending involves starting the final act right away.
Which means you leave a loyalty mission unfinished.
 
@Yuuki It's mainly about not triggering the final act until you take care of other things.
 
@Yuuki nope, you can do all the loyalty missions before picking up the final crewmember
 
You don't need to leave anything unfinished, you just need to plan your mission order in such a way that the endgame clock doesn't start ticking until you only have one left
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz exactly
 
we have a really god Q/A on the subject on the site
 
1:18 AM
@MattGiltaji Yeah, but the final crewmember is picked up during the mission that starts the third act.
 
@Yuuki Yes. And you can do exactly one mission after picking him up before anything bad starts to happen.
 
@Yuuki correct, but you can that crewmember's loyalty mission before racing off to save the day
 
So, if you do everything else before finding him, then do his loyalty mission, then endgame, you're good.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz this is how I got the perfect ending
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Huh. I could've sworn I remembered losing one non-away team crewmember despite doing exactly this.
 
1:20 AM
@Yuuki There are other ways you can screw up too.
The whole mission is an elaborate set of scripted conditionals that can cause various people to die.

Q: Unable to find majority of TF2 textures in hammer editor

Doctor Payne While using the Valve's Hammer editor to create a team fortress 2 map I've run into a problem finding TF2 texture. Theres a lot of accessible tf2 textures by typing in the filter "wall" or " "ceiling" ect... But I'm wondering if there is a tag that includes all of the tf2 texture files under on...

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, but those screw-ups cost you members of your away team.
 
@Yuuki you have to buy all the ship upgrades or the flight inbound goes south
 
@Yuuki Not always.
 
By "away team", I mean "everyone you can select to go on missions with you" in case I'm mixing up some terminology and confusing people.
 
1:22 AM
should we just do a side chat where spoilers are allowed?
 
@Yuuki You definitely were ('squad' is the preferred term). But, there are other ways to lose non-squad members. i.e. not sending an escort.
 
@MattGiltaji I think we've gone far enough that we've already done spoilers.
 
ok I think I just brained myself
 
@Basil what happened?
 
Can someone walk me through how these microtransaction keys on steam work?
If I buy a key, can I sell it immediately after?
Is there a store cut?
What's to stop me from buying a ton of them when they go down and selling them when they go up?
 
1:27 AM
@Basil Like... TF2 keys?
 
sure
 
@Basil are there other, non-TF2 keys, that you are thinking of?
 
Do you mean keys as in "codes for a game" or keys as in "in-game items"?
 
According to the reddit swap sub, dota keys as well
 
i'm pretty sure the steam store gets a cut of all the player to player transactions
 
i know they take a penny from trading cards
 
Keys are a thing in TF2, CS:GO, and probably Dota yeah

Q: Does the hand-to-hand-fighting skill bonus in FTL affect the entire crew?

ELLIOTTCABLEThe description of the skill implies that a single crew member skilling up will improve the fighting-ability of your entire crew: β€œ10% more crew damage”. Is this a typo, or is this actually how it functions?

@MattGiltaji I am in favor of this.
 
So it seems like people buy games when they're on sale and then trade them later for keys
 
user15026
@MattGiltaji I'll do it, too. Because seriously whoever named these PGA sockets needs a punch to the face
 
user15026
because how the hell am I supposed to remember who is what when the names are SO CLOSE

@AshleyNunn: AMD?
(cause intel entirely uses LGA, and other than the LGA2011s its pretty simple)
 
user15026
1:49 AM
@JourneymanGeek yep
 
user15026
I hope no one actually expects me to remember every detail
 
user15026
because isnt that why we have the internet? to remember things for us?
 
IIRC they only have three sockets in use at the moment
and AMD dosen't refresh its product line too often
And yes, internet ;p
 
user15026
Book wants me to learn about 5 of them, apparently
 
user15026
1:58 AM
Yep - 940, AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3, FM1
 
user15026
so book says learn, I poke it with brain sticks'
 
wow, reading through this guide to trading and pricing steam games, I think I might be able to make some money... reddit.com/r/SteamGameSwap/wiki/steamgamevaluation
this is fascinating
 
user15026
Hm, I was using One Note to hold my notes for this, but I am going to have to subdivide this stuff into multiple notebooks, or it is going to get hella unwieldy soon. Boo.
 
@AshleyNunn Pretty sure only AM2+,AM3,AM3+, & FM1 are in common use now
If even those
 
@AshleyNunn Have you tried Evernote?
 
user15026
2:07 AM
@Fluttershy I have, it didn't work for me for what I want to do here
 
@Fluttershy New TAH is the one that I was at!

I love how onenote works, I just need it to be able to better organize things the way my brain wants them, but no one accounts for my overly particular crazybrain

Q: Need help on loading up a clash of clans progress

Clint Ok I started up a clash of clans on my iPad and have it pretty far. Then I got my new phone and I was signed into Game Center but since I wasn't signed in on Game Center on my iPad i can't figure out how to save that progress to put it on my phone. Need help!!

 
@AshleyNunn Ah, gotcha.
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness Yeah, but the theme of this seems to be "learn about a variety of things because you never know what people will throw in your lap and sometimes it is old shit no one cares about"
 
2:09 AM
@AshleyNunn Makes sense, sorta, in a weird way
 
user15026
It makes sense when you consider what I am doing with this info, I think (least that seems to be the general opinion, when people aren't outright laughing at my choice to do what I am doing)
 
@AshleyNunn What are you doing?
Researching for a secret project?
 
user15026
@RPiAwesomeness Studying to prove I can do computery stuff without going and getting yet another expensive degree/diploma
 
There's FM3 now too I think
 
@AshleyNunn Ah :)
@JourneymanGeek Yeah, I think so
 
2:12 AM
@AshleyNunn: no offense, but the book you're using seems woefully outdated.
 
Ah, the ever-changing world of tech...
 
user15026
@JourneymanGeek It's not.
 
Granted, I was bitching about LFS101 (which is entirely worth the time I spent on it) teaching about classful networking
 
user15026
(General note: I REALLY don't want more advice on the topic of what I am doing or how I am doing it, because I am quite frankly kinda tired of it, because it is rarely "yay go you" and more "loz doin it rong". I should not have mentioned it here, and that is my fault.)
 
Meh, I'll shut up about that then
 
user15026
2:14 AM
Sorry, just a sore point with me. Not your fault.

Tried to search for This War of Mine, and instead typed This Wall of Mine
I wonder how a game with that name would turn out
 
@PrivatePansy It'd be a story about post-WWII Berlin.
 
user15026
@PrivatePansy Love story between the Berlin wall post WWII and the woman who fell in love with it's length?
 
@AshleyNunn Great minds think somewhat alike.
 
That's... huh. Cold War Berlin. That's not something that comes out in games often
 
2:58 AM
@AshleyNunn: That... actually... happened
 
user15026
@JourneymanGeek I know :)
 
user15026
Watched a show the other day about a woman who fell in love with a Ferris Wheel and she had a tattoo on her arm, I think it was, signifying their marriage union or something to that effect and was getting the Ferris Wheel painted with a similar design so her and her husband, as it were, had something more lasting than wedding rings.
 
3:14 AM
@Yuuki how are you liking it?
So far, it's just kind of irritating me :/
 
@spugsley Eh, it's all right.
I like base building, so that's a thing that's fun.
I just respecced to daggers, so I'll see how that goes.
 
@Yuuki were you doing archery?
I haven't gotten to base building yet
 
@spugsley Yeah.
 
just made it past the prologue stuff
I'm just really kinda miffed about how it looks
trying to figure it out
 
Archery is boring sauce.
@spugsley If you don't like the shiny hair, set mesh quality to High.
 
3:24 AM
I know that part. It's other stuff too.
I'm just mad about spending 60 bucks on it right now
 
@spugsley At least you're not this guy:
UPS delivered his game to his door and his dogs chewed it up.
 
@Yuuki oh. my. god.
 
@spugsley You said prologue; I assumed you were writing. Scrolled up for context. Was disappointed :(
 
@StrixVaria I've been writing a LOT, just not that. I got a sweet new job ;)
 
Nice!
I've been writing pretty well recently too.
 
3:29 AM
@spugsley There's also apparently a multiplayer co-op.
 
Just did ~900 words.
 
@StrixVaria wow, that awesome!
 
Only have to do that 100+ times for a novel :P
I am getting to the really exciting parts I was looking forward to before; I got through all the draggy middle sections.
 
yay!
 
 
3:35 AM
@Yuuki heh
 
Yup. I'm done. I keep freezing up 1 out of every 3 times on the start-up screen. It's unplayable.
I have my graphics set lowest and my machine is not even that bad.
I have no idea what the fuck is up with this game
 
3:46 AM
Hmmm? What game?
 
Dragon Age: Inquisition
 
@spugsley I had some stuttering issues last night but I'm fine now.
Have you disabled in-game Origin?
 
@Yuuki noooo, how do I do that?
 
@spugsley Origin > Application Settings > Origin In Game
 
@Yuuki yaaaaaaaaaay thanks I'll try it
 
3:54 AM
@spugsley If nothing else, it should give you an FPS boost.
 
I'll take anything at this point
 
I like how they streamlined leveling.
I've always disliked "put X points into stat Y" systems.
 
4:12 AM
Okay. Tweaked some stuff. Rebooted. Let's give it another shot.
 
This song is stuck in my head.
> Home is behind, the world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow and the edge of night

It plays during the Battle of Five Armies trailer and I've been hearing it nonstop because of my job.
I Googled it and I think I like the original lyrics more.
 
@AshleyNunn ^^^^ Buy for Yak. ^^^^

I want to never see this trailer again.

@Fluttershy Just a head's up, it's more about Hawking's relationship with his first wife than his work on black holes.
Order of decreasing priority: Relationship with first wife > Motor-neuron disease > black holes.
 
@Yuuki Oh, I know. I'm looking forward to seeing it! :3 Along with The Imitation Game.
 
@Fluttershy Okay, just didn't want you walking out of theatre having felt like you wasted money because you went to see black holes.
And SCIENCE.
Apparently, Eddie Redmayne (plays Hawking) is on the short list for an Oscar this year because of his performance.
I can't wait.
 
5:04 AM
@Yuuki I heard about that. He even received high praise from Hawking himself.
"I thought he was me."
Is what he said.
 
It'd be amazing if he got it.
He's so young.
@Fluttershy I heard that the director didn't like a certain part of his portrayal but Hawking convinced him to keep it because it was so spot-on.
 
@Yuuki He is, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Nicolas Cage was younger when he won Best Actor. :P
 
Also, there's some pretty stiff competition for best actor this year.
 
This is a list of oldest and youngest Academy Award winners and nominees. This list is based on "statistics valid through the nomination announcement for the 2010 (83rd) Awards, announced on January 25, 2011", as documented in The Official Academy Awards Database. == Best Director == === Oldest winners === Source: "Academy Award Statistics: Directing: Oldest/Youngest Directing Nominees/Winners: AMPAS Awards Database === Oldest nominees === === Youngest winners === === Youngest nominees === == Best Actor in a Leading Role == Source: "Academy Award Statistics: Acting: Oldest/Young...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz There really is. It's going to be interesting to see.
 
5:12 AM
And theory of everything and imitation game are maybe too similar for their own good in a lot of ways, which can hurt in terms of votes.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, that's also probably going to happen.
 
especially given how recently The Kings Speech swept things.
And the backlash to the Kings Speech having swept things.
 
I mean, I don't really believe that Redmayne has the best chance of winning. Even getting a nomination would be pretty amazing.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah... Not gonna lie, I was pretty bummed when Bridges or Franco didn't get BA over Colin Firth.
 
Carell and Keaton are probably locks. I would not be surprised to see Gylenhaal or Miles Teller get a nod
 
5:14 AM
I liked The King's Speech and all, but I'm not sure it warranted all the nominations it got.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I haven't seen it (it's not my type of movie), but apparently he was really good in Nightcrawler.
 
He was, but night crawler is also the sort of movie that probably is going to turn off a fair number of Oscar voters.
Miles Teller is the real dark horse.
Incidentally, GO SEE WHIPLASH.
 
I'm trying not to be interested in the Oscars this year. I'm still mad at them for snubbing Cloud Atlas... But it's hard not to be excited. This has been a great year for movies.
 
No really. Go see whiplash.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, I don't think unsympathetic borderline villain protagonists go well with the Academy.
But what little I've seen of it, Gyllenhaal pulls off that creepy vibe so well.
 
Eeeeh... I wasn't thinking in those terms. After all, 2007, There Will Be Blood.
And 1991, Silence of the Lambs...
And 1987 Wall Street... And and and and
 
5:24 AM
Sooo, one every decade?
 
Granted, Daniel Day-Lewis shouting is the cornerstone of modern cinema, but.
 
@Yuuki we're about due!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz True.
 
Okay. I should go to bed because I need to be up stupid early tomorrow. But before I do I will say again...
 
I think they might give it to Selma though.
 
5:26 AM
GO SEE WHIPLASH.
 
David Oyelowo because it's an MLK movie.
But then again, 12 Years A Slave was last year so...
 
Don't write off either Foxcatcher or Birdman. Carell and Keaton are the two names to beat this year.
Now bed, really. And GO SEE WHIPLASH.

@Arperum No, not really.
It just means that the official time is over.

@5pike Ah.
@5pike Good luck with that then, whenever it happens.
 
@Arperum In a few months, I guess.
It's pretty much the fault of the trade school. They were not able to make a good schedule.
Whatever, as long as there are no disadvantages, I don't really care.

Oh Belgian railway system. Keep being stupid and reward playing it unfair.
Right now there is a rule that you pay 12.5€ extra if you don't buy a ticket before boarding and don't inform the railway guard (doesn't feel like the right word here). If you do inform him, you pay 3 € extra.
They are changing that to make it "no ticket when boarding the train? 7€ extra, no matter what. (Except if the station has no option of buying a ticket)"
SO if you don't inform him/her you pay less then before, and even have a chance of not having to pay at all. because they don't always control/get to control the whole train.
 
@Arperum You are lucky that you can buy a ticket after boarding. In Austria, you get fined for fare-dodging.
 
@5pike It is some sort of fine actually, and you have to pay on the spot, otherwise it's a fine of 60€ IIRC
 
@Arperum If you have no ticket, you have to pay 60 € on the spot, no matter what. If you can't pay right away, the fine rises to 95 €.
There are exceptions, like when the ticket machine is broken, but you have to prove that.
 
@5pike Gah. In that case our fine is a lot better.
@5pike How the fuck are you going to prove that the ticket machine is broken?
 
@Arperum Exactly.

(ALso: I know of a way to bluescreen our old ticket machines. Buffer overflow causes bluescreen)
 
Law is fun
 
The fun part is that it takes you half a minute or something, and the machine takes a couple more minutes to crash, and you can barely be caught. I never did it myself, but have seen it done by someone I know.
Its just that the rules are changing in advantage of the dishonest traveler... To simplify the system.
 
@Arperum I bet they have some sort of logs, that could prove that the machine was borked, but I bet they won't give those out.
 
@5pike At the very least they should have a log of "we fixed machines on these places on these days.
 
I guess a lawyer could request those logs, but they usually cost much more than a fine. Great system they have there...
 
8:48 AM
I'm vaguely reminded of one of my dad's coworkers who was issued a lifetime ban from some city parking lots because they figured out he was forging parking tickets. They found out because one day the machine was broken, and his car was the only one with a ticket.

Q: What benefits are there to side with Sabal or Amrita?

meme scientistIs there a gameplay benefit from siding with either Sabal or Amrita? Or does the decision I make have no impact except on the plot of the story itself?

 
@TrentHawkins He should've checked the machine.
 
@TrentHawkins OUCH
 
Also: today's planning is fucking awesome. "read malformed XML, add to excel file. also read correctly formed xml, update same excelfile
Also: for the malformed xml: all you have is a worddoc with how it is going to look.
How and where you'll have to find these xml's is not known, what naming pattern will be used is not known.
Nor for the malformed, nor for the correctly formed xml.

THIS IS NOT A VALID TAG DAMMIT.

Q: XO everything "taking too long" and no controller pairing

LokiSinclairI'm hoping someone can help me. My XO (about a week ago) has developed a couple of faults. It wont connect to any Controllers wirelessly, and on the rare occassions it does, it disconnects after about 45 seconds or so. I can only use the controller if I hardwire it, and even then the XO respons...

 
I think XO is a even worse abbreviation for the XBox One than XBone
And my Steam just restarted itself to apply an update that fixes crashes on OS X
 
@PrivatePansy XO misses all mental links that XBone has.
 
It also makes it sound like alcohol instead
 
@Arperum :D :( :O XO
 
@fredley I lol'd.
 
9:42 AM
@Arperum Now you will never unsee
 
@fredley I probably won't.
Yea, it's some kind of stupid smiley forever now.
 
@fredley Great, thanks
And then somebody edits it to "Xbox-One"
 
9:57 AM
@Lazers I'd contact support and send it in while still under warranty...

Blackletter, also known as Gothic script, Gothic minuscule, or Textura, was a script used throughout Western Europe from approximately 1150 to well into the 17th century. It continued to be used for the German language until the 20th century. Fraktur is a notable script of this type, and sometimes the entire group of Blackletter faces is incorrectly referred to as Fraktur. Blackletter is sometimes called Old English, but it is not to be confused with the Old English language, despite the popular, though mistaken, belief that the language was written with blackletter. The Old English, or Anglo-Saxon...
