Is there a limit to the achievement progress by opening chests when trading in sets of Mysterious Conch?

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 03:04 AM PDT

You can trade in three "Mysterious Conch," obtained by investigating set locations on the northern tidal flats and shore of Tatarasuna, at the little hut. So far, I have done this seven times, and each time the achievement tracker for opening chests in Inazuma progressed by one chest. Is there a limit to this?

Ultima 6 - who knows where to find the vortex cube

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 03:09 AM PDT

I have surrendered to Lord Draxinusim and promised to give my life as a sacrife. Since then i can talk to the Gargoyles. I learned from the Book of Rituals that i can return the codex if i put the Moonstones inside the vortex cube and use the Lens from the Gargoyle (and yes - also use the Lens of the human, later i learned from the seer).

enter image description here

Question

how do i know where to find the vortex cube?

Note

of course i have read (in the oh-so-many walkthroughs) that the Cyclopses in ?Stonekeep? have the cube, but i have no idea why i should search for the cube right there! is there a hint, why it's in Stonekeep and not in the gargoyle realm?

Ultina 6 - how to know about the balloonist

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 02:59 AM PDT

Yes, SinVraal (and all the other Gargoyles) told me that i should reach out for the shrine of Singularity. But sadly it's unreachable, as you must be able to fly to enter the shrine.

enter image description here

Question:

Who tells me that i have to build a balloon?

Problem

It's totally obvious that i should try to get the magic carpet from Lord British! I have no clue why i should try to get a balloon?! Who gives me the clue to build such an air vessel!? i'm totally stuck.

Note

i am aware that i have to ask around in britain for a balloonist, once i have a clue about that - namely ask Isabella in Minoc or ask Selganor, also located in Minoc. still totally puzzled that i should not use the magic carpet.

What main stat should I get for sands with Yanfei?

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 01:53 AM PDT

I'm building Yanfei as a main dps carry for my team, and I have heard that Yanfei struggles with getting her burst frequently. Yet when I ask for other's opinions on what main stat to put on the sands artifact, most people suggest ATK% and not Energy Recharge. In particular, this youtuber (timestamp marked) suggests to not have Energy Recharge as a main stat, but to rather look for it in the substats.

May I received some informed opinions on this matter? Can someone explain why ATK% may be better than Energy Recharge?

Minecraft Bedrock overworld gold farm is sending zombified piglins to the nether

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 09:45 PM PDT

The last couple gold farm's I've made in Minecraft bedrock have had this same issue. The latest being this one here

.

The first gold farm I made, using a similar design, back in early 2020 never had this issue.

What's happening is that while the gold farm is working fine in the overworld, mobs are spawning in (or traveling to) the nether as well. This mobs are immediately hostile the next time I travel to the nether, and can number in the several dozens depending on how long the farm was active in the overworld. This often resulted in being killed almost immediately as the zombie pigman start attacking before I even finish loading into the nether.

The nether portal I use to get to the gold farm is several chunks away from the farm, however it is the closest portal to the farm.

My temporary solution was to build a portal right under the gold farm, and an equivalent linked portal in the nether. On the nether side it's very close to the portal I normally use, but most pigman that spawn from the gold farm seem to be going through the second dummy portal instead. This portal is over a pit that keeps the hostile pigman in check. However it's not 100% safe as a few pigman are either spawning in the other portal as well or the hostile pigman are causing other spawned pigman to immediately become hostile and I'm still attacked as soon as I go through to the nether.

I have to make my nether-side portals above pits now to be safe, which is quite inconvenient. My next plan is to make a turtle egg trap near the portal to hopefully gather all nearby zombie pigman. But but this and the portal pits seem like bandaids and not solutions.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Is there a penalty for escaping from fights?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 09:18 PM PDT

In the original TWEWY, escaping from battles repeatedly would lower the Sync Rate between Neku and his partner. Sync Rate seems to be absent from NEO: TWEWY, but you still have the option to escape from fights after running out of hp.

Since sync rate was removed, is there any penalty for escaping from fights in NEO: TWEWY?

Is there a reason to keep duplicate mastered pins?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 03:56 PM PDT

In NEO: TWEWY, the Garage Sale ability allows you to sell all duplicate pins at once. However, duplicate mastered pins are excluded when selling pins this way. Additionally, the game shows an extra confirmation prompt if you try to sell a mastered pin at a shop.

Considering I can only equip one copy of any pin at once, is there a reason to hold on to duplicate copies of a mastered pin?

How do I make it that /trigger will only execute a command once?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 12:13 PM PDT

So I am making a datapack for custom enchantments. I want to make it where every time I use /trigger , then the command will be executed once. However, at the same time the objective value used in /trigger will be kept the same without continuously executing the /execute command in my tick.mcfunction. Is there a solution to this problem? Thank you

How can I fix an infinite loading screen on Forza Horizon 4?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 11:12 AM PDT

Playing Forza Horizon 4 on Xbox series X, I tried to download and apply an online design to my car. The game displayed the "downloading and saving the design" message... but it got stuck there. After a couple of minutes I gave up and restarted it from the Xbox menu.

Now, when I start the game, it cannot complete the loading screen. It's not frozen, my statistics keep rotating on the bottom... but it never loads.

I tried, without success:

  • Waiting over 10 minutes, in case it was just slow.
  • Hard resetting the Xbox (completely shutdown, then wait a couple of minutes and reboot).
  • Deleting my data and resync'ing from the cloud.
  • Deleting and reinstalling the whole game and the DLCs.

How can I fix this?

How do I track player death in a specific area?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 09:50 AM PDT

I want to make a shrine, in which you sacrifice yourself (die) to trigger Night/Day change For that I need to track player death in the area of that shrine, not anywhere else So far I've tried to track it by health of a player in that area, but Minecraft doesn't register 0 health, so it doesn't trigger

Question stands: How do I register player death in a certain area?

Minecraft version: 1.17

Are there achievements available in one version of Minecraft BE that aren't available in another?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 11:29 AM PDT

I own on , and . I like having the flexibility of being able to transition between the three platforms and take my creative worlds on the go through my Realms subscription. However, I recently began playing Minecraft in survival mode and that journey began on the XBOX One version of the game.

I earned many achievements during my first day of survival and some of them were for very basic things such as:

  • Opening the Inventory
  • Making a Crafting Table
  • Creating a Pickaxe
  • Crafting a Better Pickaxe

Subsequently, when I started playing in survival on my phone last night, I earned those same achievements a second time, netting myself an additional 55 gamerscore:

Screenshot of all three titles in the achievements pane on Windows 10.

This made me curious however...

Although it doesn't appear that way at a glance due to matching available gamerscores, are there achievements available in one version of Minecraft that aren't available in another? For example, are there achievements available in the version that aren't available in the version?

Can Minecraft BE commands be converted to JE commands?

What's the in-universe explanation for Elerium's name? [closed]

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 06:18 PM PDT

What's the in-universe explanation for Elerium's name?

It doesn't seem to be derived from any real name for Element 115, so it's not that... Is it ever explained?

Can you activate a region locked Steam key without a VPN?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 11:44 PM PDT

I bought a region free key from Kinguin, but after activating it, I see it ends with "(RU)", after the game name.

Does it means it's region locked for Russia? May I get banned on Steam for only activating without playing? What if I remove this game permanently from my library?

The seller keeps saying it's a region free key, but then why would it shows "RU"?

Loading an entire Minecraft structure using structure blocks

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 11:32 AM PDT

I've experimented a bit with structure blocks in the past and I know how to load single structures using them. For example, if I wanted to load in an End Ship or Fossil I would just select the corresponding structure file in the block GUI and click load. However, what if I wanted to spawn an entire structure using only structure blocks (no mods or editors)? Like a full End City, Nether Fortress, etc.? I can't find any tutorials online for how to do that. Any answers would be much appreciated.

"vanilla:entities" not working in Minecraft loot table

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:08 PM PDT

I have this loot table in my datapack:

{      "type": "minecraft:entity",      "pools": [          {              "rolls": 1,              "entries": [                  {                      "type": "minecraft:loot_table",                      "name": "vanilla:entities/cow"                  }              ]          },          {              "rolls": 1,              "entries": [                  {                      "type": "item",                      "weight": 1,                      "name": "minecraft:player_head",                      "functions": [                          {                              "function": "set_count",                              "count": 1                          },                          {                              "function": "set_nbt",                              "tag": "{display:{Name:'{\"text\":\"Cow.Head\",\"italic\":false}'},SkullOwner:MHF_Cow}"                          }                      ]                  }              ]          }      ]  }

It's located in datapackName/data/minecraft/loot_tables/entities/cow.json. But when I kill a cow, it only drops the head, no leather or beef. How do I fix this?

Can I Escape Est Taiyar without portals?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 01:33 PM PDT

I've completed Redanias Most Wanted and returned to Est Taiyar to continue the Cats Gear quest.

Through a combination of skill and bad luck I managed to make my way to the lower levels without the use of portals. I foolishly manually saved my game at this point as I thought it was quite the achievement to get that far.

After exploring a bit I have realised I have missed where I need to be for the Cat Silver Sword and I now seemed to be trapped without portals and my next most recent save is two (real time) days ago and the auto saves are all after the most recent manual save.

Is there anyway to reactivate the portals? Can I escape without them? Is the Gerald in that timeline now stuck in those ruins forever?

How can I place a block randomly around my world?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 10:02 PM PDT

I downloaded a lucky block mod and I want to place them randomly in my world. Is there a command to do this? I'd prefer the entire world to be affected but if it's just around 200 blocks then that's fine.

Minecraft Windows 10: Is there a way to enchant armor a player is wearing?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 06:02 PM PDT

I'm setting up a killer gamemode and I would like the killer to have armor with the curse of binding on it. I'm triggering the transformation with a single button attached to multiple command blocks. Any way to do the this?(The enchantment portion.)

How can I change the world spawn in a Minecraft BE Realm with no cheats and allow achievements?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 03:54 PM PDT

I'm trying to start a Minecraft Realm with a modified worldspawn for a group of Bedrock version players. Otherwise, it's vanilla survival, and ideally would like players to be able to earn achievements in this SMP crew.

It doesn't seem worthwhile to enable cheats solely to make that one change and then turn them off for the server. I've looked into grabbing the dat files and making changes there, but Bedrock seems to keep that data in the log files. Honestly, I'm not very clear on the Bedrock version file format. Nor am I sure that uploading a world like that will work for Realms as I'm new to that too.

For those curious, the seed is https://www.chunkbase.com/apps/biome-finder#-34162643875163362 here with an amazing "heart-shaped" forest island as a starter area, surrounded by all sorts of different ocean types including a nearby monument, and great access to Giant Taiga, Jungle, Desert, Savanah, Mountains, Dark Forest, Swamp, and Flower Biomes, all within about 500 blocks. Killer seed. But the 0,-,0 coordinate is just barely off the tip of the heart island, so the game logic kicks spawn to far east instead of onto the island. Moving spawn to -32,82,32 is perfect. Any help is appreciated.

Why is sum of shares different from total value (10% instead of 100%)?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 10:04 AM PDT

I know the game is supposed to mimic the real market, about which I know almost nothing, but I don't understand how the value of a share is calculated (I mean why is it calculated the way it seems).

When your company total value is 1,206K (1 206 000 $), your shares are at "12.06 $", but there are not 100 000 shares like you could think, there are only 10 000 shares (10 blocks of 1000 shares).

So why shares represent only 10% of a company ? Why would you be the owner of a company after buying only 6% of it ? Is real market like this or is it just a thing in the game ?

enter image description here

UPDATE : the answer may be I'm just wrong in my calculations and the total of shares IS equal to the total value of a company which would make sense to me.

3ds "A" button messing up, how to fix?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 09:05 AM PDT

I am not sure how it happend but the "A" button messes up, I still responds but it still messed up.

Examples:

In "sims 3 pets" if I press "A" to choose somthing I have to press the button a few times for it to work.

In "mariokart 7" my kart goes slow then speeds up but keeps slowing sometimes and it cancels my drift sometimes.

I tested a few other games and it seems like it is most likely the 3ds/button and not any of the games.

How do I fix the button to make it work properly (without opening up the 3ds in anyway) the "A" button makes it take longer to choose somthing and slows my kart down in mario kart.

What exactly are the effects of Aiming Down Sights in apex legends?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 01:32 PM PDT

Scoping = ADS bellow:

  • Does the accuracy change (i.e. is not scoping in any way less accurate than the exact same aim/tracking with a scoping?)
  • Does the spread change?
  • Does the recoil change?"
  • Are there other changes (except markings, zoom, thermal)?
  • To which weapons do whatever changes (if any) apply?

If the answer to the above is no to everything, then are people seriously crippling movement just to get a mark on their screen!? I am asking because I generally hate scoping, except when totally necessary... but sometimes, I feel like I'm aiming great, but I'm not hitting anything without scoping, wondering if there are specific weapons which genuinely become inaccurate without scoping?

Logging into Minecraft equals instant death for no reason?

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 12:03 AM PDT

My girlfriend and I play Minecraft often and recently with the 1.8.0 update (Pocket Edition), she has randomly logged into her world to tell me that she randomly died as soon as she joins. This is her own locally created world.

We then created a Realm about 2 days ago, for this reason, hoping it wouldn't happen there. However, I remember last time I played, I was in the safety of my home, not near lava or monsters, inside my well-lit house. When suddenly, literally as soon as the world loads, I get a screen that says, "You have died". I looked around my whole house to see if I could find any of my stuff, but it all disappeared. Why is this happening? It's not an isolated issue with just Realm servers. This has happened on locally saved worlds as well.

How can I locate an NPC in Wizardry 8?

Posted: 02 Aug 2021 03:04 AM PDT

I had RFS-81 in my party, but he has disappeared.

I last saw him before entering the Rapax castle, but can't remember where,and I was doing a lot of travelling just before entering the castle.

This page says

Returning Location: Wherever you Dismissed him
Will Not Go: None (Rapax Away Camp)

I am in the Rapax Castle, not the away camp.

I cannot remember where I dismissed him and it would be excruciatingly tedious to search everywhere.

So, is there any way, maybe a game editor, that I can locate this NPC, without exploring the entire map?

Configuring QuiverBow's Arms Assistant

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 08:07 PM PDT

I am trying to make the Arms Assistant from the QuiverBow Mod ignore my PortalGun Sentry turret. However I don't know what to put in the writable book, the documentation is not very extensive...

Here is what I tried:

  • craft Book and Quill
  • write "Sentry Turret" in it
  • give it to the Arms assistant
  • give a weapon to Arms assistant

Result: it attacks the sentries.

What am I doing wrong here? I tried also "PortalTurret", which is the name of the Sentry turret item (I think not of the entity), but that didn't work either.

I would appreciate an answer that is general enough that it allows me and other people to apply it to any kind of entity that needs to be blacklisted.

How does decryption work?

Posted: 01 Aug 2021 01:02 PM PDT

I am playing Mass Effect and I only seem to have about 10% success decrypting locks, even "Easy Decryption" locks. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong, or what I am doing differently when it works. The times that I fail I am hitting the button as fast as I can.

Is there some trick to knowing which button press is coming up?
