I wish Katy Perry would marry me

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice uh, why?

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn What do you mean why

Wipqozn

19:12

@GnomeSlice It seems like a simple enough question

Why do you want to marry her?

GnomeSlice

I don't really.

You ruin everything I say.

She's gorgeous

Tim Stone

@Wipqozn He might just want to be married by her, although I don't know if she has the credentials for that.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice What you said wasn't that easy to ruin apparantly.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn What?

I'm confused.

OrigamiRobot

Billiard the Vendor just died :(

Tim Stone

19:15

Where will people get quality pool tables at low, low prices now? :(

OrigamiRobot

This is the worst disaster that has befallen my little town.

Tim Stone

I think I've only had one person die so far, he was crushed by a falling stone because I totally jumped the gun in building a quarry.

Wipqozn

Fantastic! 20 Cattle!

Tim Stone

Surprised that more didn't die, some people were homeless for a while.

Wipqozn

Also, going to focus on upgrading my houses to stone then I think I'm going to start expanding again.

Tim Stone

19:20

Hmmmm.

Now that I filled my trading post to 10% full a merchant has finally paddled down the river.

FEichinger

Merchants sometimes take quite a while.

First time I think I didn't get one until two or three years after staffing the trading post.

I was worried at first Sweden woudl kick Canadas ass when I saw the score of the USA game, but then I realized the American team was just playing horribly. It's like they just gave up or something.

StrixVaria

Pretty much.

Wipqozn

They're going to be so fucked if they reach the elite four.

They're going to need to do massive grinding of their other pokemon.

Bird Jesus can't solo the entire elite four with one damage dealing move and a sometimes I'll deal damage move (mirror move).

also Agatha is a ghost trainer and Bird Jesus can't hurt ghosts.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn That's awful. =[

Tim Stone

@Wipqozn When that happened to me I was a little confused how, since their yield was so terrible.

How did you get crushed by a rock when you weren't even working?!

Wipqozn

@TimStone haha

Yeah, they're yield leaves much to be desired.

I've got 7 in there right now. I think I had 8 last season, and the produced 80 stone.

So about 10 stone per person. Not that impressive.

Q: How do I get rid of low wealth demand in jobs?

I have been working on a nice balance between demand and jobless citizens. When I look at my demand, I can see the companies in my city, only want low wealth workers. How do I remove this demand?

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn How many people do you have working a full size farm?

Wipqozn

@OrigamiRobot None right now.

Just building my first farm.

I'll probably do 4 for a cuple years, then try 3.

Actually I'll start with 3.

reddit.com/r/Banished/comments/1ygucd/…

OrigamiRobot

Wow, I can never get the crops planted/harvested on time unless I do 6.

Wipqozn

That suggests 3 is enough if they have the time

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn Time is the important factor.

If I do less than 5/6, I have crops dying when winter hits.

Wipqozn

20:47

Going to start with 3, and keep a close eye on it.

The crop seems to make a difference too.

Apparantly some crops take longer to die off.

Actually I'll start with 4.

Q: GENETOS crash because of dmsynth.dll on Win8

I am trying to play GENETOS on my Win8 64bit laptop. The game crashes randomly due to what I believe are audio playback errors (it happens when a lot of sound effects are playing). The game reportedly works fine in older versions of Windows. Here is the error entry as it shows in Events Viewer: ...

technical-issues

Wipqozn

@OrigamiRobot Got to 60% with 4.

I think the distance from the farm plays a role. I need to get a couple homes closer for them to live.

I lied, I use 5 per farm.

Q: Hey I was wondering what the code would be to move my (House) boat. (Minecraft)

So I have this boat. I've built it and put four command blocks down. (One Left One Right One Down & One for up) But I can't figure out How to make it move. I'm pretty sure it would be something like /move Coordinates? Up/Down/right/left 1 block or something. I have no idea. Could someone work out...

Q: Does MISSINGNO. actually destroy saved game files?

The effects of the MISSINGNO. glitch in Pokemon Red and Blue have well-documented at many sources. Encountering MISSINGNO. corrupts Hall of Fame data, causes temporary graphics glitches, and sets the most-significant bit of the 6th item in the player's inventory. That said, there are also a lot...

@Lazers Are we outsourcing errors to pastebin now?

Wipqozn

@Frank huh, it was a 2k user who did that. Weird.

Probably did it to make the question easier to read, but it's just annoying.

Frank

@Wipqozn I'd rollback, but the changes go beyond that.

John

I didn't like the format that guy gave, either

though it's better than the original

Frank

And copying and pasting doesn't work, either.

John

Given the tag wikis, I am confused about why those tags were removed, but know better than to ask >.>

Wipqozn

21:17

That is one long ass error.

That's probably why he did it.

John

@Wipqozn I ran a query recently to find the longest posts on the site, and a surprising number were Minecraft errors

Meta makes you do strange things.

Unionhawk

I think that's an acceptable exception.

Holy shit

FEichinger

Code block has a max-height, and triggers scrollbars.

No reason to outsource to pastebin.

Unionhawk

Meh true

I guess

Wipqozn

IDeally the user should only post the relevant bits of the error log, but I think the average Arqade user isn't experienced enough to be able to do that.

John

21:19

I give you the 4th largest post on the site, by number of characters.

FEichinger

@Wipqozn It's not so much Arqade users.

If they could boil the error log down to the essentials, they'd already know what caused it.

Because Java stack traces are actually pretty easy to read. If you just bother.

John

and the fifth. A decent example of @FEi just said, I think

There we go. Problem solved.

@FEichinger I want a "all you did was C&P a huge error message" close reason.

People who install all these mods need to, I dunno, not do that.

John

21:27

@Yuki Mods are hard. If you can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

FEichinger

@Yuki Fun fact. We had this very conversation a short while ago.

Unionhawk

I feel like these canadian commentators are secretly thinking "YEAH, SUCK IT AMERICANS. TASTE DEFEEEEEAT"

John

Or use Feed the Beast.

Yuki

Note: I am not saying that in a serious manner.

John

@Unionhawk I know this Canadian guy, and he has not stopped telling me basically this for a few days now.

Unionhawk

"WE KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING ON CANADIAN OPEN PROXIES"

Yuki

@Unionhawk But I don't wanna taste the feet.

3ventic

Solution to mods crashing: Mod manager

People should use them more.

Unionhawk

See, there aren't really any good ones that work anymore, tmk

and all the old installation instructions don't apply anymore and it's confusing to people

3ventic

Magic launcher is gone?

Ben Brocka

@Unionhawk GOOD LUCK I'M BEHIND 7 CANADIAN PROXIES

Unionhawk

21:30

I'm not sure if it works past 1.5.2

3ventic

I used it a few weeks ago when playing on a 1.7.2 server

Unionhawk

Well, then apparently it is a thing

Yuki

> ~~GOOD LUCK~~ SORRY I'M BEHIND 7 CANADIAN PROXIES...................eh.

Unionhawk

Really, all you need for mods to work is, usually, to have Forge Mod Loader installed, and then throw the zips into a mods folder

Usually

3ventic

I just put forge into magic launcher and then the rest of the zips

works great

Unionhawk

21:31

Rarely any jar file manipulation these days.

3ventic

and if it doesn't, the launcher tells me when I'm adding the mods

I don't even need to crash to know it won't work :o

Unionhawk

A lot of people's crashes come from mismatching versions, too, which is always hilarious.

3ventic

But I mostly mod Skyrim so idk really

John

@Unionhawk There are so many very simple ways for the technologically challenged to botch this up, though

Unionhawk

True...

"I'M TRYING TO INSTALL THIS I DID EVERYTHING IT SAID AND IT DOESN'T WORKKKKK" then you probably did not follow the install instructions exactly.

user58869

21:34

hey, i play skyrim too

3ventic

Skyrim's great

Only with mods though

user58869

it is

I probably couldn't play Skyrim on a console..

i never played it with mods

3ventic

I played it for a few hours without mods

Unionhawk

Oh, I know I couldn't play it on console.

3ventic

And then about 320 hours with mods

Unionhawk

Even without mods, PC is better because of the dev console

3ventic

Wipqozn

@FEichinger It's easy to say that when you're a developer and that's where your skill set lies. If you're not a programmer than a giant error log can just look like a huge and unreadable wall of text.

user58869

i suddenly forgot how i got here, who i was talking to and why i said what i said

Kevin van der Velden

@Alex you should get that checked out by a doctor

Probably

FEichinger

@Wipqozn The problem is that they're not even reading it. They get an error, and dump it here. Most of the time the error message contains the name of the mod that's conflicting right in the first line. It's really not that hard to figure out.

Wipqozn

Since I don't think the average Arqade user has much experience programming (if any at all) I don't think they'd even know where to begin looking.

@FEichinger Because they just hueg giant wall of text, and don't even know where to look. They might look, but might not think to look at the top. They might think "It must all be important if it's there!"

user58869

21:42

@KevinvanderVelden yes. but i tend to think that alcohol does that to you, and if i go to a doctor and say hey doc, i am drinking too much, i dont remember what i did last night, he/she will say something like: stop

Wipqozn

If you're not familiar with programming you're not going to know that 90% of those error messages are just meaningless fluff.

Kevin van der Velden
