Q: What quests from the first Witcher games matters in the second?

Bruno BrantI recently found out that I've lost my savegames from The Witcher. I decided, rather unwilling to replay the game in order to try and make the same decisions so that it'll be reflected correctly on the The Witcher 2 game. However, I do not have enough time to replay it fully -- I want to go stra...

Q: Why won't mobs spawn in my trap

BlueSixtyI've built a mob spawning trap but mobs are not spawning. It's a tower that is 10 blks long x 5 blks deep x 35 blks high. At the top of the tower (33 blocks) is a spawn floor. The spawn floor is 10 blks long x 3 blks wide. There are signs on the edges of the spawn floor. I've used a mapper to f...

Hola, anyone here?
Finally - downloading Portal 2. (Cross posted from The MSO Tavern.)
Hi, @FallenAngelEyes, what's up?
 
Hi @Moshe, not much
 
@FallenAngelEyes What games are people playing these days?
 
That's a... broad question. Really depends on what you're looking for. We've got all sorts of gamers here.
 
@FallenAngelEyes I'm mostly on iOS, and sometimes on Mac, but iOS games are usually less expensive.
I'm looking for a good RPG for iOS.
 
Ah, I'm afraid I can't help you much there personally, as I don't play on any iOS systems :(
 
1:32 AM
Ok, thanks though.
 
No problem. :) This time of day is a bit quieter in chat. You may have better luck when it's busier.
 
Ok, thanks. I'm usually on the meta tavern, waiting for my Portal 2 to finish.

Q: Who is a major opponent in Dungeon Siege III?

Mark TrappIn Dungeon Siege III, the trophy/achievement I Could Do This Blindfolded reads: You defeated a major opponent using only your default equipment. What opponents are deemed "major"? Bosses? If so, are all bosses considered major opponents, even the ones at the start of the game?

Q: How often should I cheese my low-level opponents?

Brennan VincentI'm a pretty bad Starcraft II player -- currently stuck in Silver league. I find I can beat most of my opponents fairly easily with tricks like 6-pool, proxy pylon, bunker rush, and so on. However, I'm worried that if I rely on this type of play in order to rapidly advance, I'll quickly find myse...

Q: Do deeper Strata give more Crowns/Heat?

Raven DreamerIn Spiral Knights I recently made it to Tier Two! This means I can adventure past the second stratum and into the third and fourth. While I know that deeper strata means the possibilities for better material drops, do the deeper strata also reward, on average, more crowns and heat? I'm trying to...

Jens BjörnhagerHow can it multiplex four controllers onto two controller ports? Would it be possible to extend it further with three devices?

 
 
3 hours later…
12:06 PM
@badp Why do you keep linking to Reddit instead of the actual pages?
 
Because esp. in this case the actual page was pretty meh
The only informative content is "Pyros are getting a new flare gun that detonates on right click. Nothing for engineers."
The real reason obviously is that I added the reddit toolbar because I'm annoyed by how links work on reddit
Most often I go to reddit for the comments, but the big phat links go to the content.
 
1:01 PM
Hrm, what are Valve servers doing running retail TF2?
 
Oak
gaming.se is blocking me... too many requests. I hope it will be lifted soon. Never happened to me before :)
 
@Oak Weird :/
 
The Curse networks got hit hard, both the Minecraft Wiki and Forums are down, along with a ton of their other sites.
 
Oak
@badp It's not that strange considering I send a lot of requests to stackoverflow, I didn't realize it would effect gaming as well
 
1:12 PM
@Oak um, okay, and why'd you do that? :)
 
You can get a beta key for Might and Magic Heroes VI through tweakers.net: tweakers.net/redactieblogs/75240/…
its a dutch site, but well it works
 
Oak
@badp academic reason - I'm mining data from so
 
Oak
"Tweakers.net in collaboration with Ubisoft gives beta keys to the PC game Heroes Might & Magic VI." - pity it's not something like "gaming.stackexchange.com in collaboration with Ubisoft..."
 
@Oak we should try that sometime
though tweakers.net is quite a bit larger than gaming.se
 
Oak
1:18 PM
Bah! Blocked again :( at least chat still works
 
but the post is only 20 minutes old
so if others are quick they can join now
 
Oak
Does anyone know if there's a SE site for asking questions about SE's API?
 
@Oak Can't you use the data dump?
 
Oak
Though technically it probably falls under stackoverflow itself
@Fabian I can in theory, but right now I have a working code for accessing the API
 
@Oak wouldn't StackApps be for that?

Q: What's the difference between the "Long Live the Queen" and "Royalist Ally" trophies?

UllallullooI just completed the quest in Glitterdelve Mine quests and simultaneously got two trophies, but they seem to mean the exact thing: Long Live the Queen - You broke the siege at Glitterdelve and saved Queen Roslyn. Royalist Ally - You have shown unwavering support to the Crown. It seems ...

 
Oak
@IvoFlipse I got the impression that questions there are just for publishing an app
BTW thanks for the idea @Fabian, I should download the dump instead, didn't realize it wasn't that big. Still a bummer, the SE API should work, I have a valid key and all.
 
@Oak I'm looking for it, but can't find it
 
Oak
Looks like the problem is less "number of requests" and more "frequency of requests", I guess that's why I got blocked.

Q: Warlock spell coefficients in patch 4.0.3

Ondrej SlintákAs the title says, I'm looking for warlock spell coefficients in patch 4.0.3 of WoW. I found some info on wowwiki, but it's outdated (or at least I think it must have changed since 4.0.1 or earlier).

 
Hey, someone is playing dungeon siege on PC here?
 
Anyone interested in playing MC?
 
I think they changed the ways controls was!!!
That's very disappointing
 
@GnomeSlice I would if i wasn't at work. It's one of the only two things banned here.
 
@Keaanu That's fine.
 
user30
4:58 PM
So remind me. Why did I start playing DF?
 
user30
Argh, looks like I won't be doing anything else tonight.
 
I'm still trying to get everything ready for my server's spleef tournament tomorrow.
I didn't have the foresight to set a time of the day of course.
 
user30
@GnomeSlice Ah yes. That reminds me.
 
user30
I have to get the gaming server back online
 
@ThomasMcDonald Lucky for me we got 16 players registered.
I wasn't thinking, but only certain intervals would work out in a 1v1 bracket.
 
5:02 PM
bonus points if you plan on keeping track of the bracket in minecraft.
 
user30
I don't like Github for Mac.
 
user30
It doesn't quite work for me
 
user30
hum, I wonder if I have a copy of the old old map ooh, it should be on my S3
 
@thedaian Actually:
 
@Mvy Changed them from what? I saw something about a patch that was going to modify PC controls, but I didn't think it was available yet.
 
5:04 PM
@GnomeSlice awesome!
 
Well @bwarner I'm thinking of camera controls
 
@thedaian I'm just worried that we won't make it to the end.
There's no way we'll get everyone online at once.
 
But do you mean they changed them from previous Dungeon Siege, or they changed them since the release of DS3?
 
Haven't seen some of the entrants in a few days...
 
No for DS3
I've been playing it for a week now
(early release in Europe)
 
5:06 PM
So did they just release a patch?
 
BTW I think it has been patched yesterday
but can't find any patch note
 
I had read this joystiq.com/2011/06/23/… The active word there being PLANS
What have you noticed that changed?
 
@GnomeSlice ideally you should have figured out what times are good for everyone who signed up and scheduled rounds for that... :( but hopefully you have contact info for everyone, or at worst, people to substitute for missing people
or just give people automatic wins if the person they're up against doesn't show
 
@thedaian D'errr...
 
Well @bwarner, I'm confused when I try to move
 
5:07 PM
@thedaian should have, yeah.
 
So I bet the controls has changed...
 
@ThomasMcDonald There might be meet the medic too.
 
user30
@badp I know. D:
 
user30
but that will be late, I don't think I'll stop up that late
 
Yeah, really annoying.
 
5:08 PM
Ohhh fuck !! They did!
 
Keyboard controls were W/S moved forward/backward and A/D rotated the camera. Or you moved by clicking (or holding) the right mouse button
 
stupids....
oh yes you have qwerty layout :P
W/S forward backwards yes. A/D camera yes
But A/D has been inverted
 
I'll stay up unless they put it behind another hidden link shit
 
Wow, that's random.
 
the problem isn't finding the link, the problem is the hidden link comes up hours later
 
5:10 PM
Presumably it is a bug?
 
@Mvy O_____O
 
T_T
 
user30
@badp I have found a copy of the very first map on my S3 account!
 
What have they done!!!
 
So would a "Why don't my keyboard controls work?" question be in order, or is it too localized since presumably they will change it?
 
user30
5:11 PM
Which means we can get that running in parallel.
 
I'm thinking there's going to be a lot of people searching for information...
 
Well I'm ready to answer now.
 
i wish i had access to my original minecraft maps... :(
 
Don't worry Obsidian devs are stupids
:D
Well at least I know I'm right, thanks to the steam forum
 
@thedaian You're welcome to come play on my server. =]
 
5:13 PM
@ThomasMcDonald um? first map of what?
 
user30
@badp minecraft.
 
Did you see the post where the Obsidian guy says it was a mistake and they're working on it?
 
user30
y'know, the one with the big obsidian thingy
 
@ThomasMcDonald Oh.
The one with the lava gaming logo?
 
With that in mind, we probably shouldn't bother with a question
 
5:14 PM
thanks for the offer, @GnomeSlice. but i'm at work right now, and i've got a single player world at the moment with some cool stuff (plus it's easier to cheat in single player :P)
 
user30
@badp Yep, and the bridge, etc. etc.
 
Cool. That was a great spawn area.
 
@thedaian We're a creative server anyway, so there's no pressure to mine or hoard materials.
 
user30
I may, um, remove that obsidian monstrosity, but
 
@Thomas, the level seed should be in there somewhere
 
5:14 PM
haha
 
user30
Yeah
 
@badp even if the same seed was used, it'd generate a different map by now, i bet
 
@thedaian Well it surely will in 1.7
 
there's going to be a new map gen for 1.7? oh right, ravines.
 
I wish it would stop being updated.
 
5:16 PM
@GnomeSlice You can stop updating.
 
user30
Um, I'll try it on a small portion with //regen
 
user30
And see what it creates
 
@badp Then I can't play on multiplayer servers.
 
@GnomeSlice Can't MP servers stop updating too?
 
@badp Yeah. But he won't.
 
5:17 PM
i kind of like the updates. new stuff for a game is always fun, even if it results in giant walls of sillyness in the worlds sometimes
anyway, i want pistons :(
 
It just means that my mods don't work for a week or two
 
I want pl_barnblitz. :(
 
i think "official" modding support is coming soon, so it's likely that mods will update about the same time minecraft itself updates...
 
user30
@thedaian And by official, all that is happening is that Notch is releasing the code to those that agree to a set of terms
 
yep, hence the quotes.
 
5:21 PM
Derp... this is going to be a disaster without coordinated playtimes...
 
@ThomasMcDonald Heaven forbid he just make an SDK.
 
@GnomeSlice What's the server address? I might stop in sometime.
 
user30
@GnomeSlice Why has it got to be on just one day? Just play the matches when the respective people are online.
 
@Keaanu 'mc.treepunch.ca'
 
Or am I in the wrong here?
 
5:23 PM
@ThomasMcDonald That's what we're going to have to do, but it might take a while.
 
haha, treepunch <3
 
The guys from x.treepunch.us DDOS'd us a while ago
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz What I'd do is remove the specific version number from the question and just make the question ask about what are the coefficients right now.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Aren't you just linking to the same page he linked in the original question?
 
I'm out for now.
 
5:27 PM
@bwarner At the time that his question was originally asked, his link was to WoWwiki (a Wikia site, which the majority of the community has since moved away from, and is thus frequently out of date and not well maintained), not WoWpedia. I linked to WoWpedia because their information was somewhat more up todate than WoWWiki's at the time. Since then, all WoWWiki links on Gaming.SE have been edited to forward to WoWpedia.
 
Ah, I see.
Seems kind of silly that we changed the link in the question, since it makes your answer looks weird.
 
@bwarner It was a pretty indiscriminate change, and it was done for good reason. Pretty sure that's the only thing that was 'broken' by it.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz It's closed now. As I've argued so far, we're not the place for look up tables really. We can't even do tables in the first place!
 
@badp Heh. There's that too I suppose - though really, the answer to his question is a sufficiently narrowly defined table that a bulleted list wouldn't really look terrible. :P
 
Reddit's table markdown really is no rocket science
Column | Headers | Line
:- | -: | :-:
 data | data | data
The headers line is mandatory. The alignment line (2nd) is mandatory.
You can't even newline in reddit tables; all HTML is ignored.
 
5:42 PM
You forgot the
 
markdown links do render however.
 
I don't know, :- | -: | :-: kind of looks a bit like a rocket. at the very least, the -: | :-: part does
 
@Powerlord It's Reddit. The is implicit.
 
:- means align this column left
-: means align this column right
:-: means point and laugh at those table-less stackexchange fools as I align this fine column to the center!
 
@thedaian It's a rocket hitting an Aperture Science Infinitely Configurable Panelâ„¢

Q: Crysis2 complains of Strict NAT and cannot find session

BiggAlThere's loads about this online, but I've followed all the advice I've found so far. My machine is on a static local IP. I've opened all the ports in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\crysis 2\Support\readme.txt through my router. I've set Norton Antivirus to Allow for Crysis2.exe. ...

 
Sad Wallaby. :(
 
Is that blog just animals being mean to other animals?
 
6:06 PM
@thedaian And occasionally to people, yes.
 
haha
 
Has anyone told you guys that you have too much free time on your hands?
 
I mean, the url is in fact animalsbeingdicks.com
 
Speaking of which, boring meeting in 50 minutes, I should have brought my laptop from home so I can do some "work" (read: games) during this meeting.
 
@Powerlord It's raining. This means I am stuck in a hotel room in New Jersey unable to actually work. So yes, I do have too much time on my hands today.
 
6:08 PM
Also, having animated images in here makes it harder to disguise that this window isn't actually work.
 
@Powerlord Okay then, I'll help you scroll them off the screen.
Hopefully you don't run some terrifyingly and impractically tall resolution.
 
1600x1200 I think.
 
God this rain is stupid. I wonder what posessed me to take a job which I can't do when it is drizzling.
 
Should I even ask what job that is?
 
@Powerlord I do field data collection for the company that provides the map data for basically every digital map under the sun that isn't Google.
Sadly, rain + LIDAR = shitty imagery, so the day is wasted.
 
6:10 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Does that include Microsoft for their Bing maps?
 
@Powerlord Indeed!
In fact, Bing is financing a large portion of the specific project I'm working on as we massively upgrade their streetside view stuff.
 
Granted, I have no idea what our deal with MS is, so I have no idea if Streetview data is included in it.
 
@Powerlord For what?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz All I know is we have a deal with MS to redo imaging for our entire state.
(over a 5 year period)
For the State of Michigan, that is.
 
sounds fun.
 
6:15 PM
While I don't do GIS myself, I work in the State of Michigan's GIS shop.... the Center for Geographic Information.
 
@Powerlord Well, FWIW, I did deliver one of the cars used for this project to our Detroit office about a week and a half ago (the equipment gets installed out of a shop in Jersey)
 
user30
@badp It lives!
 
Well, the only imagery I know for sure they're doing is overhead imagery. I would say satellite imagery, but I was under the impression that it's actually done via flyovers.
Anyway, I've scrolled more than enough for where this can be mistaken for work again.
and I even used FTP to set up my TF2 event server's configuration for a 24/7 BarnBlitz server to replace my second standard server.

Every Stack Exchange site starts with a Q&A site, made up of three pieces that help bring the whole community together:

But wait, there’s more?

A couple months ago, the Super User community took it upon themselves to create a blog run by the community. This effort has been so successful that a couple other communities floated the idea amongst themselves. Internally, we recognized this as an opportunity many of our communities might be interested in and brought the operation in-house.

We are happy to announce that with Blog Overflow, Stack Exchange communities are able to run a community blog.  Several communities have already begun blogging:  Super User and Gaming. …

@TheStackExchangeBlog Nice to see it formally announced, although I have little to do since SE took it off me.
 
ooh, blogs
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz While, SOM does have one strange thing going for it: We have our own independent geometry system that we use. The project I work for at work, when they actually assign me things to do on it, is on the (boring) data side of it.

or rather, I gave it to SE
 
Granted, we have reasons to do this sort of thing, as we track things like temporary annexations through it.

PS: If you can read this message and win the defender I put up for auction, PM me afterwards in game and I'll refund you 1k crowns off the total price. Just because you're that awesome

Q: Can Worthy of Legend in Dungeon Siege III be cheesed?

Mark TrappThe trophy for Worthy of Legend reads: You completed Dungeon Siege III at the highest difficulty level. Does this mean I have to start the game at Hardcore difficulty and never set it to an easier level? Or does it just mean I need to complete the final encounter at Hardcore difficulty, al...

 
Sometimes auctioning is stupid
Right now there's a jelly shield that's more or less like my defender, but with much better resists, and my defender
A quick fire exchange of outbids brought mine to more money than the other.
One of the two parties must've noticed.
Indeed the other shield went out for 4,050
mine's still in page 4 at 4.4k
 
7:59 PM
that's a side effect of auctions in general.
 
Gone for 4.4k, that's 4k to me.
Now to buy 4k of energy :/
And in 16 hours I'll have enough energy to finally unlock tier 2. Ah well.
@thedaian Yup, once I was playing around with 9 auctions of the same item, and one such exchange occurred on a few of those items
When I finally won one of those races for 240, I managed to 'stealthily' win three others at 150-170
Tunnel vision is a bitch.
 
hahaha, nice.

OK, I know I do mostly Java development and not C++, but are C++ class objects automatically created for you if you call methods on them without calling their constructors first?
 
No. doing that will usually result in a nice crunchy crash.
 
That's what I thought, and yet SourceMod has some code that's doing just that. I just searched for mention of a certain variable. Its present in one file, and other than its original declaration (VoteMenuHandler s_VoteHandler;) every mention of s_VoteHandler is a method call.
 
that said, simply declaring an object as a variable will allow you to access that class methods
 
@thedaian Oh... and that's what's throwing me off.
 
yeah, there's a variable declaration there which automagically calls the constructor
but if that was a pointer to the object, it'd be an error
a lot of the time, people will use pointers when dealing with objects, hence my original statement
 
8:47 PM
Yes, for whatever reason, this particular object isn't a pointer.
The problem is, I'm using code based on this in another app that needs to do some initialization first, so I need to call a new method I'm creating on this object before I use it. :|
 
that.... has potential to end badly
 
Well, when I say "on this object" I should say on the new object I'm creating by copying some of the code from this object.

@badp Sorry, was talking university.
 
Trust me, if I could write this differently, I would. But apparently if I do, it won't be initialized by the host process (this is a server plugin).
 
Well, then all I can really say is "Good Luck"
 
8:53 PM
The bad part is I need to call this hook/unhook actions on both implementations of IMenuHandler.
One is to make it visible to other C++ plugins running in the server instance, the other is to handle outside requests.
 
@ThomasMcDonald I'll let you see
rather than spending people being credit to team nobody
 
user30
@badp I'll have a gander in a second,
 
I wish I could just put these in the constructor/destructor instead. >:|
 
user30
also I managed to regenerate half the gaming heart at spawn ;)
