Q: Where can I download minecraft from to put onto a USB?

Where can I download minecraft from that will enable me to put it on a USB and load it from anywhere?

badp

so I've been waiting how long for my hallucinations to wear off with a unicorn horn right next to me? :/

Now I just have to pick up ALL MY ITEMS from that nymph. And I'm down to fighting with bare hands.

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice I don't think this will work, but I'm going to test it

Raven Dreamer

What is the 5-6 minute category, and how am I beating you at it, @badp?

GnomeSlice

8:03 PM

@murgatroid99 I've run it from a usb loads of times, all you really actually need is the game client.

Wipqozn

@RavenDreamer Beat Hazard.

badp

@RavenDreamer steamcommunity.com/id/badp/stats/…

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice I mean that I don't think it will load all of the save files and stuff when you start it on another computer

GnomeSlice

@murgatroid99 It will if you copy them out first.

badp

The wood nymph stole a unicorn horn.

GODDAMMIT. I WAS WALKING.

murgatroid99

Raven Dreamer

Oh, the game I get epilepsy whenever I try to play?

I also don't have the DLC

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice oh, I didn't see your most recent edit

badp

So I'm left with nothing but a spellbook.

And I read it.

and I get teleported.

and I read it again.

and I get teleported.

and the spellbook crumbles.

and a rothe joins me. and a newt.

and I die.

Raven Dreamer

Why were you dying?

badp

8:07 PM

see above.

agent86

@RavenDreamer I'm going to say you're talking about Beat Hazard, because I think that should be the game's subtitle: Beat Hazard: The Game That Gives You Epilepsy.

GnomeSlice

@murgatroid99 To wherever, somewhere you can get them from later

Raven Dreamer

@agent86 And thus the circle is complete!

GnomeSlice

I'm editing it again

Raven Dreamer

@badp I'm not familiar with nethack. Hallucinating causes death?

badp

8:10 PM

@RavenDreamer No, but you can't tell your pet from anything else. So if you know your pet is nearby you have to be extra careful.

So I could do nothing about the wooden nymph who, in the meantime, stole ALL the things from me.

One item by one, it stripped me of all my food, all my weapons, all my armor, all my potions, all my scrolls, all my items - except a spellbook.

A: Where can I download minecraft from to put onto a USB?

Minecraft.net is the only site you can use to download the Minecraft game, so you will need a personal computer and an internet connection. However, after you download it, you can copy the game to an external drive, and play it from there. Sort of. If you want to transfer your saved data: ...

There. How's that.

badp

A leprechaun also took a bit of my gold too. For good measure.

GnomeSlice

Also, please stop voting to close it.

badp

The spellbook was out of depth and it basically got me killed. Not like I stood a chance anyway.

Wipqozn

8:12 PM

@GnomeSlice Why?

GnomeSlice

I've edited the title, it shouldn't be closed.

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice Yeah, that looks like it will work. I have a feeling though that the asker was looking for something to start it, save data and all, directly from the USB drive

GnomeSlice

@murgatroid99 Clarified that at the end, thanks.

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice actually, it looks like it actually is a dupe of the question yx linked to

GnomeSlice

@murgatroid99 Oh hell no.

Yeah, that's a dupe.

Wow, my answer is wrong, anyway.

Wipqozn

8:14 PM

My internet hates me right now

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn Oh boohoo, what are you getting like, 100kb/s?

minecraft.net

^ Also. ^

Are people really registering that frequently?

If you look at the counters on the site.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn I have a weird internet speed

user2334

@GnomeSlice It's not real time: it's taking an average rate determined some time in the past and incrementing automatically based on that rate. May be faster may be slower at any given time

user2334

Actually, looks like it's just set to update the counter once a second. No polling for a new rate or anything like that.

Eek. This is closed for the wrong reason.

murgatroid99

8:19 PM

@GnomeSlice because the dupe wasn't found until there were already 4 close votes

badp

@GnomeSlice there there.

user2334

I flagged it like a fox

GnomeSlice

How is it not a real question?

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice it was unclear at first what he was asking, which is the description of NARQ

user2334

@GnomeSlice The close reason that gets the most votes wins. You likely rewrote it after it got the 3 NARQ votes

GnomeSlice

8:21 PM

I think you guys are a little too liberal with that close reason. For starters, just because someone asks a question that seems really obvious and dumb to us, doesn't mean it is so to them.

user2334

> i need a site that i can download minecraft from to a USB so that i can play it any where without having to download it to that computer.

user2334

is neither obvious or dumb

GnomeSlice

Even a simple "This isn't possible/how this works. But you can ____" would answer questions like that.

user2334

It's just a bad question that's unclear as to what he was attempting to do

agent86

NSFW language and graphic (8-bit) violence, but Mario Goes Berserk is pretty freaking funny :)

murgatroid99

8:22 PM

@GnomeSlice It's not because it was obvious and/or dumb. I for one had no idea what he was asking for

GnomeSlice

@MarkTrapp Okay, but what's 'NARQ' about that.

Grace Note

17 secs ago, by Mark Trapp

It's just a bad question that's unclear as to what he was attempting to do

GnomeSlice

@agent86 Oh man. I remember watching that years ago.

And yes, it is pretty funny.

@GraceNote He's trying to download Minecraft to a USB stick, and play it from the stick.

agent86

@GnomeSlice posted today... although nothing on the internet is new so shrug

GnomeSlice

What's unclear?

@agent86 Posted today... where?

I might be thinking of a different thing, actually...

@agent86 Yeah, actually, I'm thinking of something else.

user2334

8:24 PM

@GnomeSlice He wants to download Minecraft without downloading it to his computer. Which is not a thing one can do. Your edit clarified it by taking a chance: that's great, but that's what closing a question helps facilitate: editing questions to be clear so they don't attract answers that miss the point.

GnomeSlice

@MarkTrapp So, if it's not something you can do, rather than close it, why not just explain this in an answer?

user2334

@GnomeSlice Because "You can't download something to a USB stick without downloading it to your computer" is not a Gaming problem. It's a problem with understanding how computers work

GnomeSlice

@agent86 I'm thinking of Mad Mad Mario. Haven't watched the one you linked, because I can't stream, but this probably have even more NSFW language.

murgatroid99

@MarkTrapp but in the dupe question the answer says that what the asker wants can be done

GnomeSlice

He's specifically asking about Minecraft... but I see what you mean. This is where everything gets confusing. How do we define off-topic? Based on the question? Or based on the answer...

@murgatroid99 You still have to download the game to your computer though, this one has been edited.

murgatroid99

8:27 PM

@GnomeSlice he said he wanted to play it anywhere, not download without downloading

user2334

@murgatroid99 Well it's important to note that the dupe wasn't found until it attracted enough NARQ votes to make that the close reason. But also the dupe doesn't say anything about trying to avoid downloading to his computer, just that he wants to be able to play from a flash drive, which is a thing.

GnomeSlice

Well, actually you CAN download directly to a USB stick, via a PC.

You can change the download location.

1 min ago, by GnomeSlice

He's specifically asking about Minecraft... but I see what you mean. This is where everything gets confusing. How do we define off-topic? Based on the question? Or based on the answer...

user2334

@GnomeSlice Yes, that still involves downloading it to your computer. You can't not hit the computer. Most flash drives don't have Wifi.

murgatroid99

@MarkTrapp the asker wanted to not have to download it to the other computer where he would be bringing his flash drive

user2334

@murgatroid99 And clarifying that to make sure everyone understands what he asker was trying to do is what edits are for. Closing in these cases is to prevent answers that miss the point from being generated until the question is improved.

GnomeSlice

8:31 PM

@MarkTrapp Doesn't have to save to your computer though.

He's asking for a website, I assume he's using a PC. You can't browse the internet on many USB sticks.

Mad Mad Mario, y u no load. =[

Stupid shitty internet...

murgatroid99

@MarkTrapp Right, I'm not saying that the question should have stayed open, just that what he wanted actually did make sense

user2334

@GnomeSlice Yes it does. When you're downloading a file, it saves to your computer's cache. Only when it's fully downloaded does it copy from the cache to the destination folder.

GnomeSlice

@MarkTrapp I think for his needs, that's probably fine.

I don't think he wants to have the game saved anywhere on his computer.

It's a pretty poorly worded question, to be honest.

murgatroid99

@MarkTrapp I would bet it's more like streaming an internet connection stream to a file handler, which at any time would have a small part of the file in RAM

user2334

@GnomeSlice @murgatroid99 I'm not arguing that what he's essentially asking for, as edited and explained by you guys, isn't a thing. Of course it is: we even have a question for that. But the question as he originally worded it before you edited it was barely comprehensible.

murgatroid99

8:34 PM

@MarkTrapp OK, I now see that we are in agreement. cool

GnomeSlice

I'm not arguing that, all I'm trying to say is that just because a question is barely comprehensible doesn't mean it should be closed outright.

user2334

If someone posted the dupe earlier, I'm sure we'd all have voted to close as a dupe instead of NARQ/off-topic

GnomeSlice

But yes, it was a dupe.

But that's not my point.

murgatroid99

@GnomeSlice but isn't that the entire point of NARQ?

OrigamiRobot

@GnomeSlice They should be closed until they are rewritten

GnomeSlice

8:35 PM

@murgatroid99 No, not really. Bad language doesn't mean 'vague question'.

user2334

@GnomeSlice Yes it does: closing isn't a punishment. It's to prevent answers while the question gets sorted out

FAE

@GnomeSlice Remember closing is meant to be a temporary state

Grace Note

@GnomeSlice That's... exactly one of the reasons for the "Not a Real Question" close reason - an incomprehensible question

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Yes it does. Closing is a temporary state, not a permanent one. The idea is to close it until it has been fixed, at whihc point it is re-opened.

FAE

for the stuff that can be improved

Wipqozn

8:36 PM

oh my zeus, internet, y u so shitty?

Wow, we just drove up the beach back from lunch and BAM there is a HUGE wall of fog rolling in. We went from being able to see all the day up the coast to nto being able to see more than 30 yards down to like 10 yards.

FAE

@Sterno So it seems like there's no real distinction between the classes at all, seeing as you have the same skill board available to all classes, or am I missing something?

user2334

@agent86 Enchanting.

Sterno

You start at different places on it, but yeah, that's fairly accurate

OrigamiRobot

@MarkTrapp inb4 Sandal quote from @FAE

OrigamiRobot

There was a shirt?

FAE

@OrigamiRobot Yes

Sterno

@FAE Actually, I don't know if it's still true, but back when I last played, the different classes got different, small, fixed armor/shield/evasion bonuses.

badp

my major pet peeve with Beat Hazard is that 40% of the time I don't see what kills me.

OrigamiRobot

@FAE Haha! I was thinking "I hope the back says 'Enchantment!' " and then it did!

@GraceNote Incomprehensible and 'barely comprehensible' are different things. :P

I want some damn killcams or something!

GnomeSlice

I keep forgetting about closing being temporary though.

Fredy31

Back from the sugar shack.

GnomeSlice

@badp by they way, have you been checking out the shooty games I've been pinging you with?

FAE

@Sterno I'm not sure how I feel about it so far. The gem/active skill system is kind of neat, but it seems to have kept the meh holdovers from Diablo 2 that even Diablo got away from, like items taking up different amounts of room in your inventory, fixed-gender classes, and ID/Town portal scroll taking up inventory and necessitating management.

murgatroid99

8:47 PM

@badp mine is that often I can't see anything

Sterno

@FAE It seems like a good game for people who like to grind gear and customize builds for it. It's got a lot of customization ability in terms of rerolling mods on equipment, sockets, socket colors, etc. Not really what I'm looking for personally, but I like that it's kind of a new take on it

James

@Fredy31 Yeah ok, I didnt understand that image in the other channel either, now that its here I have to ask.. Are you tweaking out on maple syrup?!?

Fredy31

I'm full of sugar

Sugar shack is always oh its gonna be fun

badp

@GnomeSlice not rly. I have way too many.

And yet I keep playing this one. Because I can like listen to my music and stuff.

Fredy31

Then you come back asking yourself Why did I go again? It's shitty as hell

GnomeSlice

James

@Fredy31 LOL

@GnomeSlice I didn't realize you were hunting games specifically for me

GnomeSlice

Well, no, not really.

James

@Fredy31 I found this mod for when we want to try and make a time-lapse of the G.SE logo in Minecraft minecraftforum.net/topic/…

badp

8:53 PM

when I suggest games it's because I randomly stumble upon them

FAE

@Sterno Yeah, I really like that you can just unsocket the gems pretty easily and the colors definitely make for an interesting way to streamline which skills you're allowed to use. Is there a death penalty?

badp

thanks for the effort at any rate

GnomeSlice

I've been meaning to pick up Beat Hazard. Had the demo a while ago, but never played it.

Sterno

@FAE At the higher difficulties I think there's an xp penalty. not on normal though

Fredy31

Really, if one day you come to Quebec and they tell you "Lets go to the sugar shack, a Quebec only attraction!" Say no

theres nothing quebec about that place

FAE

8:54 PM

@Sterno Ah gotcha. Yeah I checked my xp and I didn't see any armor durability stats, so I was wondering if there was anything at all.

James

@Fredy31 Ill keep that in mind if I head back that way.. I mostly go to Vermont or the like if I want maple syrup though ;)

OrigamiRobot

@Fredy31 Depending on whether it is a candy store or a strip club, I am either completely interested or not at all interested in this, respectively.

Fredy31

Q: Is there a website that has estimated time duration for games?

I'm going down my huge backlog of unplayed Steam games and I'm thinking the best way to tackle the list is to go through the shortest games first and then concentrate on the 20+ hour ones. I'm wondering if there's a website that has an estimated amount of gameplay time for games. Hopefully withou...

completion-time

Ugh. I hate this question.

John

@GnomeSlice Too localized?

GnomeSlice

@John I just don't like it.

John

Oh I hate the gravitron.

@John The carnival ride? It's great.

@OrigamiRobot VVVVVV

NO. ONE TENTH OF A SECOND.

GnomeSlice

@John Ah, playing that again?

@John ?

John

@GnomeSlice I am

I'm doing far better this time.

@GnomeSlice I have to survive in the gravitron for 60 seconds.

In increments of 5 consecutive.

GnomeSlice

@John Five consecutive what?

John

@GnomeSlice Seconds.

GnomeSlice

Oh, right.

I remember that room.

That was dumb.

John

9:59 PM

Not so much dumb as it is just plain mean.

LEVEL COMPLETE

Oh thank goodness.

And here I go, back into that facility. And for what? A shiny trinket.

Ronan Forman

This can't be happening! @Origami is green!

John

@RonanForman He always has been.

Ullallulloo

@John What people will do for shiny things.

John

@Ullallulloo I know.

Though it's more than just that. You haven't actually finished the game until you get them all.

GnomeSlice

I got them all on my first playthrough, I think.

Actually, maybe not, I think there were one or two areas I didn't go to.

John

10:06 PM

@GnomeSlice Without leaving any to go back to after you'd rescued everyone?

user30

what the

GnomeSlice

@John Yeah, I think so. I think there might have been one or two places I didn't go to, but I think I went to them after I finished.

I don't have that save game any more anyway though.

=[

"Salutations, lamb021!  Welcome to Hebiwerie's general store!"
 You kill the gas spore!
 Hebiwerie is caught in the gas spore's explosion!
 Hebiwerie resists the gas spore's explosion!
 Hebiwerie gets angry!
You are caught in the gas spore's explosion!
Hebiwerie zaps a tin wand!
You miss Hebiwerie.
Hebiwerie zaps a wand of striking!
The wand hits you!
You die...

GnomeSlice

The soundtrack made VVVVV for me.

10:09 PM

I didn't even know

John

@GnomeSlice You have said this before. And I have agreed before.

GnomeSlice

@ThomasMcDonald Did you think a name as innocent as 'lamb' would help your odds?

John

@ThomasMcDonald What didn't you know?

user30

@GnomeSlice No.

user30

@John That I was about to explode a gas spore.

John

10:10 PM

@ThomasMcDonald Oooh.

GnomeSlice

I always found video games where NPCs can kill you for annoying them slightly ridiculous.

user30

To be fair, I did attack him indirectly.

user30

but it was by accident.

GnomeSlice

My point exactly.

John

Oh no....it's Veni, Vidi, Vici....

@John ?

Oh, is that that room[s] that's ridiculously difficult?

GnomeSlice

I can't really stream.

John

@GnomeSlice Yes, it is.

GnomeSlice

Ah, yeah, I don't think I ever even visited that part of the map.

Seen that before though.

@John By the way, if you liked VVVVV, you should pick up Out There Somewhere.

In fact, pretty much everyone should play it.

Seriously. It's amazing.

I want someone to ask a question on the site about how to get a certain item, but not before I get a better screen recording tool.

I gave up trying to record it with blueberry flashback.

> The Oracle is a monster who resides on a special level called "The Oracle Level" (or Delphi). She can provide a consultation for a fee, which is supposed to be one of the main ways the player learns about the game. In practice, players read spoilers, such as this one.

> We all know that's going to start filling our desktop shortcuts and end of anything we have served so many shortcuts because they take longer to locate them visually in what we had to slow to go directly to the program by the usual way.

> Make sure you pass this Cylog Toolbox 2.67 which is a kind of manager all the shortcuts you have scattered to every desktop icon to each unit of the PC, being very readable, easy to locate and much more efficient and quick access. You will gain little by little, much longer than you imagine, which will no doubt on the efficiency of your daily work.

John

Oh yeah, @GnomeSlice, what did you want when you messaged me on Steam?

GnomeSlice

@John Was gonna ask if you were up for some SID.

John

@GnomeSlice Oooh. Sorry, was busy.

This attempt to summarize seems an abject failure as people just voted on it like it itself was a position when it was just supposed to be a tl;dr summary. That's why it was CW ffs.

Q: What is the strongest light gear that can be crafted?

I prefer light gear because with very few perks you have very little weight and you are still at the armor cap. But now that I'm planning out a new character I'm wondering how strong the strongest dragonscale armor is, so that I know how many light armour perks I need. Note: I don't want to use ...

Woot, The other poster was kind enough to change his answer to a comment :)

TylerShads

@James I had someone on movies basically take a quote from one of my answers a week after I posted it, should request a redundancy on answer content :)
