Q: Stabilizing framerate of Android games

PhazyckI've been playing some fast-paced, focus-demanding games like Super Hexagon and Size DOES Matter on my Sony Xperia Z1 recently, and I've noticed something that has been bothering me. Sometimes I get frame rate hiccups, stutters, drops, or whatever you want to name it, while playing these games. ...

RileyOk,so basically I have an xbox 360 voice communications mic and a nice pair of headphones I use for gameplay.

Wow, slow night.
I'm disappointed in all of you. Especially @badp and @fredley.
In fact I'm so disappointed in all of you that I'm going to go afk! That'll teach you!
 
@Wipqozn Mods are asleep?

Q: Forza horizon 2 - unable to find championship races

user2345916So I was running through the championship races, and for some reason I can no longer see races to enter after I select enter race and choose my car. The map has no race icons at all. Ideas? Thanks!

@badp Close enough.

Q: How to unlock Rivals in Tetris Attack

somecooldude12I have been playing Tetris Attack obsessively lately (yes, I am a retro gamer) and I found out there are Rival characters you can unlock and play. I immediately prioritized my goals into getting those characters (Who doesn't want to be Petey the Piranha Plant?) but I have no idea what to do.

Okay, I really need to buy blinds for my bedroom window.
I demand someone else do all the required work for me.
 
@Wipqozn Blinds are the worst to install
 
@Wipqozn You could, if you pay them
 
12:01 PM
@fredley I suspected as much.
I first need to buy some, but since it's sunday several places don't open until noon.
I also have a large bedroom window, making the task even more annoying
 
@Wipqozn Blinds are the worst to install
Damn you network
 
@fredley I suspected as much.
 
@Wipqozn Blinds are the worst to install
 
@fredley I suspected as much.
 
@Wipqozn ERROR
 
12:45 PM
Great galoshes, a .io address is like $80 to register!
So much for emojs.io
 
@RedRiderX Still a hipster domain, so they can get away with it
 
@fredley Yeah I guess.
Hmm, emojs-lang.com is available....
 
@RedRiderX is emojs full of broken promises?
 
@fredley Gosh I hope not
 
@Wipqozn Some places might not be open.
 
12:50 PM
@RedRiderX What is it?

Q: Forgive a stupid question from a geezer: what do people call spamming saves nowadays?

BandramiSorry, I'm nearly 40 years old and I started gaming with curses based stuff like rogue (still, IMO, the best game ever except possibly Zelda I). We had various derogatory terms for people who would abuse the ability to save the current state and keep retrying until non-deterministic decisions wen...

 
@fredley A preprocessor for javascript.
 
Dammit game! lvl 145 and the only primal I had was the first guaranteed primal boss.
 
The goal is to allow you to write all your javascript with Emojis
Syntax and everything
 
Hmm, I wonder how much gold I've amassed so far this weekend. I let it sit on level 104 when I went to bed on Friday.
 
12:57 PM
Currently I have a grunt task at github.com/RedRiderX/grunt-emojs-compiler
 
I just took my 8 guaranteed souls and am currently ascending again. (7 guaranteed from hero levels, 1 from lvl 100)
That was 6 minutes ago, and I'm back on lvl 58 now, and still rushing up.
 
@RedRiderX That's hilarious
 
@fredley It started as a joke when I showed everyone a picture of a swift program with Emojis for variable names.
 
@RedRiderX haha
@RedRiderX Surely you just redefine the grammar
{heart} for =
 
@fredley Yep
 
1:07 PM
etc.
 
I'm still very much taking suggestions for definitions.
Not complete at all
 
I don't know emojis at all
 
I'm still working on some other stuff for it, but it should be fine to add to for now
Also sidenote it's tough as balls to use emojis on Win 7
So that's why I'm not farther with the definitions :P
 
@RedRiderX { and } should be thumbs up and thumbs down
 
@fredley Yeah that's what I was thinking.
The only problem is that there is () and [] as well
 
1:10 PM
Is there goto in js?
If so it should be pile of poop
 
@fredley Hmmm...
@fredley !
 
@RedRiderX Use up/down, left/right finger pointing
 
() as right/left finger would look cool
 
@fredley See I'm also trying to have escape charecters.
 
1:11 PM
@RedRiderX like \n?
 
Right now the single escape character is a dolphin
@fredley Yes
I also want to implement escape brackets, but I'm not sure what is the best way to do that
@fredley No wait
More like just the '\'
So you can literally type emoji
 
function should be 🎉, as in function/party
@RedRiderX hah
 
@fredley I'm all up for this I suggest you submit a pull request
 
Not on a dev machine atm
 
Just keep in mind I think I'm going to move the definitions list out of that repo and into it's own
 
1:13 PM
@MBraedley Homesense isn't, which is where I think I need to go.
 
@RedRiderX RFC?
 
So I can submodule it out to some other stuff I'm working on.
 
I checked walmart before, but I don't think they have any blinds that fit.
 
@fredley :O
 
My window is fairly large.
 
1:13 PM
I wish
That would be funny as hell
But not as funny as the pigeon protocol.
I'm still working on a project page for EmoJS in general
I think the tagline will be "The world's more universal language, now in the world's most universal language."
 
@RedRiderX A friend and I once tried to submit a joke proposal for encoding x's at the end of SMSs (by using special encoding you could increase the number of other chars available).
Never actually wrote it though
 
> "They told me she drew something that resembled a gun," said Rebecca. "According to them she pointed a crayon at another student and said, 'pew pew,'' said Rebecca. She said her child was given a questionnaire to evaluate her for suicidal thoughts.
> "While I was in the lobby waiting they had my 5-year-old sign a contract about suicide and homicide," said Rebecca.
 
I'm not sure how far to take this joke...
2
Should I make an EmoJS-lang org on Github?
 
> Rebecca is pushing to have the incident removed from her child's record. She said school officials have requested Elizabeth see a psychiatrist.
 
Then I could have emojs.github.io
 
1:17 PM
I hope the school officials there are charged with extreme incompetence.
That's a criminal offense, right? Being horrifically incompetent?
 
@Wipqozn Wow
 
@Wipqozn It should be anyway.
 
Yay....I feel great.
Stuffy nose, Sore throat...
I hurt basically everywhere from flag football yesterday...
Yup. Generally feel great
 
Hmm which font should I use for the logotype?
 
@RedRiderX What's the project?
 
1:24 PM
I think I'm beyond the point of it being a joke, and yet... that's not stopping me...

1:48 PM
@Ender I got a free copy fo that with my GPU. I don't think I'll take the time to play through the story, but I think I'll play survival mode.
 
@RPiAwesomeness Hmm yeah I was about the same.
 
@Wipqozn It looks pretty freaky. Never seen the movies though
 
@BenBrocka Afraid I don't know that. I haven't ordered their models before, so I have no idea what they usually charge.
 
Woo beat level 150 and got Frostleaf gilded.
 
@StrixVaria Woo! Beat level 100 and got Frostleaf gilded :D
But seriously, I beat lvl 100 and recieved Frostleaf gilded x1 :)
 
2:04 PM
Gah, just found out I forgot to level midas above 25, and so I've been playing way subobtimal until lvl 100 frostleaf this ascension.
 
@RPiAwesomeness I could've been at lvl 140 like 15 minutes ago probalby, now it took me a full hour to get there.
 
(I ascended at 14:55, it's 16:08 now, and I'm fighting lvl 140)
Where fighting is just "let the boss be killed by idle damage".
 
yeah, I've done that couple times
have yet to ascend
 
2:12 PM
I just bought the skills, I never use them before 140 or something anyway.
And when buying up heroes I noticed I forgot to level Midas for his gold drop boost (of 75% even)
 
@RPiAwesomeness Indeed.
 
2:26 PM
Does anyone know of any 2D animation software (not flash)
 
@RPiAwesomeness After Effects
@RPiAwesomeness What kind of animation?
 
@GnomeSlice Well, obviously. Do you know of any others?
As for what I'm doing, it's something similar to cgp grey
 
I don't know what that is
If you're looking for something free though, you're not really going to find anything.
 
I figured as much
 
2:39 PM
lol
 
@Wipqozn How many times has that worked?
 
@MBraedley I assume it works all the time.

/r/incremental_games is a pretty good traffic source
Lol, someone posted it to HN
 
user15026
Is that for your game with the very big numbers that my brain cannot comprehend?
 
@AshleyNunn Yes
I posted it to /r/incremental_games, it's now #11 on HN
 
user15026
Neat!
 
Unexpected
It's literally about 3-4 hours work.
It's 100 lines of js!
 
user15026
It's incremental, there are achievements!
 
3:09 PM
What is HN?
 
Hacker News...
Traffic still increasing, up to 67 active sessions. I have no idea what GA considers an 'active session' in the context of a one-page, static site though.
Now 70..
Number go up!
 
Oh god they changed suggested edits again
Oh god why
why you do this to me shog9

user15026
To torture you
 
Is it because people complained about too minor no longer being a thing
@AshleyNunn Well, obviously.
 
Now 80...
90...
This is the highest traffic I've ever had for a project
 
3:23 PM
@fredley Same as for answers, half of the time the quick and dirty answer gets way more votes then the one that took your a couple horus to craft.
 
@Arperum 100...
 
@fredley Achievement get!
 
110
This is crazy
 
The number keeps getting bigger! This is so meta.
 
#4 on HN, highest I've ever been
130!
140!
Pretty sure this is running off an EC2 micro. This won't end well.
150
Watching numbers go up is fun!
...and it's started slipping down HN again. Well that was fun while it lasted.
Good game, would replay.

Q: How can I read old comm messages?

makiftasovaIs there way to read messages older than what's shown on the comm? Sometimes there happen to be some chatter on the comm which I can't catch at the moment and try to read later in the day but can't because they happen to be in older times than my comm starting point.

@Fluttershy it was more like appuhpah..........
 
@fredley Well the official android app is categorized under "Social"
 
@3ventic Hah. I don't know where that referral came from though, need to find it...

Q: Is it possible to train on bosses using weapons other than the dagger?

badpBoss fight practice uses the dagger. Considered that it's perhaps the single worst weapon, that makes some sense. However, this probably result in the developing of strategies that work when you have the dagger but are disastrous when you don't. For example, the best thing to do for King Conga 3...

I'm working on my sister's thesis
It must use the A4 page format
It must use the provided cover page
The provided cover page does not use the A4 page format
Nevermind the cover page is provided in useful formats such as .doc and .odf
 
Blow it up.

Both blowing up the page to fit A4, and blowing the university up

ZONE 3 BEATEN
 
Too stong?
@badp Zone 3 of what?
 
@RedRiderX Crypt of the Necrodancer
 
Oh nice
Are you using a dance pad?
 
6:56 PM
No.
 
Aww
 
I beat it with the Bard, too, so that means I didn't actually have to go with the beat
 
Wait what?
Isn't that the whole point of the game?
 
@RedRiderX You can improvise Zone 1 like that, yeah. But the game gets very hard very fast, and you have to learn enemy patterns, and you can't afford to get hit too many times.
If you play the Bard you can stop, think, observe, learn
 
Hmm okay
So like training wheels?
 
6:59 PM
@RedRiderX Even with them, beating a zone for the first time feels like an accomplishment
 
I don't doubt that
Seems like a crazy game
 
Now I have nothing left to spend diamonds on :(
 
@kuku Good luck with your homework!
 
@badp, nope
 
7:08 PM
anyone here using mechanical keyboards?
 
@kuku why post that here, exactly?

Eighty-character long memories.

@kuku spamming isn't welcome here. If you keep it up, there will be sanctions.
 
7:11 PM
@badp I thought I've seen that problem before already, and I don't even do math
 
@kuku Really, you're angry at us because we didn't help you with your irrelevant question?
 
@badp that was some grade a drama.
 
@Chippies I guess it could be some sort of interview question?

Apology accepted; now move along or we'll end up pinging you again

Q: What happens if I don't bury corpses?

YuukiSo a wolf attacked and I have a few dead people lying around. While I do have a cleric, I don't have a graveyard so they aren't getting buried. I don't really feel like spending resources on a graveyard at the moment, but what happens if I just leave rotting corpses lying around?

 
@RPiAwesomeness what did you use?
 
@GnomeSlice For the vid?
 
7:37 PM
Yes.
 
Can you watch it?
Synfig Studio
 
Yep.
 
kk, I was just wondering. Youtube says it's still processing, soooo
 
Never heard of it. Looks interesting.
 
Yeah. It looks like gonna be just what I need :)
I can make the actual images in Inkscape and then import and animate them via Synfig...hopefully it works out.
Biggest deal is gonna be rendering. I dinnae think I will be producing any videos on my laptop...the time it takes O.O
 
7:39 PM
Haha, yep.
 
And this is just 2D!
I so need my new desktop
@GnomeSlice If you go to my channel (youtube.com/aevestech) can you see that video on my feed?
I can, but that might be because I'm channel owner
Ah. That would be a no.
 
@RPiAwesomeness No, it's unlisted.

I was just wondering because I could see it.
