How to play War Leaders LAN (without GameSpy)?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 08:19 PM PDT

Ever since GameSpy shut down many games were affected. I'm asking if there is a way to play War Leaders: Clash of nations via LAN party network (without GameSpy). Is this possible? Is there another way to use multiplayer mode in that game? Thanks/

Prevent people from using levers

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 07:25 PM PDT

I'm making a battlefield and want to include an area for "admins" and the like to enter and leave a certain area without others being able to do the same thing. I don't want to use commands such as teleporting, as it will be too jarring to see, and I want it to be a legitimate door.

Is there a way to prevent someone from using a lever? For example, if someone had a certain tag or item on them, they are unable to right-click the lever. I'm on 1.17.1.

Can the quest "Setup" be completed using the new MP-155 shotgun?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 05:46 PM PDT

After successfully hiding the lure involving false flash drive in Dorms, Skier sends us on a new quest called Setup asking us to

dress up like one of them (Scav vest, Ushanka, and MP-153/133 shotgun) and smoke PMCs

While this does not mention recently added Izhmekh MP-155, the description of that weapon implies it is the direct successor of the mentioned MP-153. Does that make it a valid choice for the quest, too?

Can I use 2x turn speed on a New 3DS?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 03:55 PM PDT

In Code Name: S.T.E.A.M., there is an option to fast forward enemy turns by 2x on a standard 3DS or 3x on a New 3DS.

Is there a way to use 2x turn speed on a New 3DS? Or am I stuck with 3x speed?

How often should I visit to see whether Tubbs will lounge on the giant cushion?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 12:57 PM PDT

I know this is a long shot asking here, but I having passively been interacting with Neko Atsume for a long time. The only remaining novelty for me is trying to attract Tubbs to a giant cushion. I have implemented details on Reddit about placements of the cushions (tan & white), food combinations (double Frisky Bits or double Ritzy Bits), etc.

My only question is if you've been successful, how often did you visit the app to see if Tubbs enjoyed a giant cushion?

I bought a refurbished PS3, why do the controller buttons functions do not match my old PS3 even after controller reset and set up?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 01:26 PM PDT

I just bought a refurbished PS3 and the controller buttons do not match my old PS3. I have reset 2 controllers and reset to what my old PS3 was but they won't work the same as my old PS3. What can I do?

Why are my X, Y, Z coordinates gone in Minecraft JE? [closed]

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 01:35 PM PDT

I play Minecraft Java edition 1.17.1 on PC. Since I switched accounts from Mojang to Microsoft I can't see my X, Y, Z coordinates after pressing F3, in my new world specifically.

I tried to see my coordinates in in a new made world and there I could see it. I also turned "show coordinates" on and of in the settings, and also tried the command function but nothing did it.


Is it still possible to see my coordinates with F3 or do I always have to do /tp ~ ~ ~?

(Minecraft Bedrock) Enchanting items in a custom crafting recipe

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 12:01 PM PDT

I have a bit of a problem. I would like to make a behavior pack where you can use a custom crafting recipe to craft items with enchantments on them. But I have not found any documentation or any guides on how to do this. Any ways I can?

Javazon Hell Mode stuck in the jungle

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 08:21 PM PDT

I'm playing javazon and i'm stuck in act 3 spider forest and flayer jungle with hundreds of lightning immunes little monsters. I tried buying teleport staff but it is still hard, is there any other way to pass through the jungle aside from teleporting your way from the docks to lower kurast?

I mostly play single player and all I can think of is joining a party.

Is there a way to "try" Horizon Zero Dawn before I buy it?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 01:56 PM PDT

I'm wanting to give Horizon Zero Dawn a try before I commit to purchasing it, but I can't find a demo anywhere and my current subscriptions (XBOX Game Pass and Amazon Luna) don't offer the title. So far, the only ways I've found to play the title are to purchase it outright from one of the following sources:

However, none of these methods provide a demo of any kind (that I know of) prior to purchase which leaves me stranded to watch videos in order to make an informed decision. If possible, I'd like to actually play at least a small sample of the game prior to purchase. I'm okay if it's not possible, I just want to exhaust all options before I give up.


Edit: It turns out, similar to XBOX Game Pass, games are included with a subscription to PS Now and one such title happens to be Horizon Zero Dawn. I don't currently have a subscription to PS Now, but it turns out they have a free 7 day trial. In my specific case, this means I can technically try the game before buying anything. However, since this is has very specific prerequisites, I won't be posting it as an answer.


Is there a way to "try" Horizon Zero Dawn before purchasing the title?

What are some hacks to improve FPS that one can apply for Unity Games?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 10:58 AM PDT

There are lots of Unity Games that lag on medium powerful systems.

As an example, "The Signal From Tölva" - I'm running this game at 1280 X 900, with everything either disabled or set to the lowest values. And in spite of that I'm getting an FPS of ~15. Looking at Steam's forum this seems to be a common experience.

Yet, I can run Skyrim at maxed out settings with 1920 X 1080.

Another example is Everreach: Project Eden, a game from 2019, 2 years back but it runs with 10-15 FPS. Looking at Steam's forums there are again lots of people with this experience.

So there are lots of Unity games that run normally on one hardware but are pretty laggy on another.

What are some hacks/settings that I can apply to Unity games (generally) in order to improve their frame rates?

Toggle mouselook in Final Fantasy XIV

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 04:11 AM PDT

Final Fantasy XIV doesn't support mouselook, i.e. where you can turn the camera and the character without holding the right mouse button. What are the possible solutions?

Can I create a custom biome with no floor for my datapack?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 10:18 AM PDT

I've been looking into custom world generation recently and I found out that you can create custom biomes and have them generate in the world. I was wondering if it was at all possible to use this to create a biome with no floor at all. Like just a hole that drops into the void. I know I could use custom worldgen settings to create floating islands, but then I couldn't have stuff like custom particles, fog, or water. I've tried using custom surface builders, but I don't think they're powerful enough.

Is it possible to have a custom biome override the world generation and just be a huge hole?

Longneck Ascendant Rifle Very Expensive Craft

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 12:03 AM PDT

I have a Nitrado server with my friends.

We wanted to make the ascendant rifles but it is asking us for 17160 metal ingots which cannot even fit in the slot spaces at the smithy table or anywhere else.

How do we change this?

How do I detect when a shulker box is opened?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 01:35 PM PDT

So basically, I want to create a way to detect when a shulker box is opened, using commands. I've searched everywhere on the internet on how to do so, and I can't find an answer.

Can you use same Minecraft / Microsoft account on different devices?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 12:07 PM PDT

My child has Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch and has a Microsoft account so can play cross platform. He now also has bought Minecraft for the PS4. Can he use the same Microsoft account on the PS4 or do we need to set up a new one?

Make items on an armor stand’s head invisible?

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 04:02 AM PDT

How do I make an item that is on a armor stand's head invisible, but able to be seen by specific teams. If an armor stand is invisible, any items in its slots is visible. I want to have the items invisible to some players, but visible to other players. Is this possible? If any of this is unclear or you have any questions, please let me know.

XBox One Exiting Hulu with Logitech Harmony Companion All in One Remote Control

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 03:02 AM PDT

Basically, the XBox One is our entertainment center. I bought the Harmony Companion remote for my wife, as that is easier than a controller.

Works great, except, once you're in the XBox One Hulu app, there's no button I can figure out to exit Hulu (say to get into the XBox One Youtube app for example). Same with Netflix. But not the same with Youtube, you can exit that with the "return" button.

What am I missing?!! With the XBox One controller, you have to do with it the XBox button.

Super fast pickaxe with no drops

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 03:23 PM PDT

I was wondering if it's possible to make a pickaxe that either breaks stuff really fast or that clears like a 3x3 area at a time, both of these without dropping any items? I'm trying to make this in 1.13.

Installing Optifine on Minecraft 1.12.1 without installing Java on macOS

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 02:01 PM PDT

So I installed Minecraft on my macOS computer. I want to install Optifine as well. When I download Optifine Ultra from its website, I get a .jar file. When I double click on it, I get the following message:

To use the "`java -jar OptiFine_1.12.2_HD_U_C7.jar" command-line tool you need to install a JDK.

Along with this, I get an option to go to the Oracle website to download the 300+MB Java Development Kit.

Is it possible to 'manually' install Optifine without having to install the JDK?

Faction War Assets Gained

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 01:01 AM PDT

After each match, you get a certain amount of "Faction War Assets". How is the amount you receive after each match calculated? The only thing I could find on Ubisoft's website just vaguely said something like 'doing better gets you more points'. Any more details on that? Specifically,

  • Is it just win/loss, or does your personal score and/or kdr matter?
  • Does match time matter? If so, what is better, longer matches or shorter? Does it depend on if your team won?
  • Does the type of match matter? There is a "Front War Bonus" that gives you 20% - I assume that means that if you apply your assets to a sector that is of the match type you just played, you get that bonus, correct?
  • Is there any kind of handicapping for one faction having more active players during the last war?
  • Are there any bonuses for playing with friends?
  • Do all factions start out even? No, some factions start with a lead when a new round starts, but I'm not sure how that is determined.

Any insight into any of these questions would be appreciated.

View jumping in VR games on Xperia Z3 compact

Posted: 11 Aug 2021 02:01 AM PDT

After the update to Android 6.0 the steering/looking around in my VR games seems to be a bit buggy.

I'm using a Sony Xperia compact Z3 and the problem is the following. In apps (such as Google Cardboard) I can look around, but after some random time the view will center at a certain place. This makes looking around nearly impossible.

Does anybody have any idea what the problem here is and how to solve it?

How can I start the Blood on the Ice quest?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 05:57 PM PDT

I am currently part of the Stormcloaks and just finished Rescue from Fort Neugard. The Jarl wants to make me a thane and is telling me to buy a house, but his steward is telling me the house is unavailable due to some unpleasantness. I have already completed the 5 quests to help people of Eastmarch.

From what I can see online, I need to begin the Blood on the Ice quest. It is supposed to begin by walking in the windhelm graveyard at night, however every time I go there I don't see anyone.

Someone online said it's possible to miss the scene that triggers the quest if you go into Windhelm and leave without triggering it, but I am hoping this isn't the case. I am in Windhelm a lot because the Enchanting table, Blacksmith, and Fence are all in one location, so find it very convenient. The lady who is supposed to be murdered in the Graveyard (Susanna) is still alive in Candlehearth Hall, so I think I'm not bugged.

The wiki suggests that you have to "The quest will initiate after you entered Windhelm four times from another hold", however I have entered and left quite a few times during the course of my game and know I've been here way over 4 times.

I tried pickpocketing the key, however I don't automatically get the quest on entering the house, and there are a bunch of "Investigate InvestigationTarget" spots in the house. Also, I was reading the Butcher's journal and he was saying he almost caught Susanna when she left Candlehearth, however I have never seen her leave Candlehearth. Perhaps my glitch is she never leaves? I'll have to head to Windhelm on another character and check it out.

Also, I saw something online saying this quest won't trigger if you go past 245 in-game days. Would someone be able to confirm this for me? (Have the XBox version, so waiting 245 days is annoying)

Can someone tell me the exact steps to begin this quest?

In Super Mario World what is the trick for getting 1ups on the vertical bonus levels?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 12:22 PM PDT

In Super Mario World for the SNES, getting 100 stars allows access to a bonus level with five vertical platforms, each with three coin boxes. If you hit the boxes in the right order the third box reveals a 1up. What is the pattern for this and is it the same for everytime you encounter this bonus level?

Elements of a basic RTS?

Posted: 10 Aug 2021 11:31 AM PDT

What are the basic elements of a RTS?

I.E.: What are the features without which it is not an RTS?

I have played games like Age of Empires and Warcraft, but I'm still not sure which are the defining elements of the genre.
