Is it possible to put a downloaded save in MGSPP?

Posted: 06 Oct 2021 03:12 AM PDT

I've lost my whole gameplay, but I don't want to start all over again. I have read that it is possible to avoid this. If so, how?

How fall damage is calculated in video games?

Posted: 06 Oct 2021 02:03 AM PDT

From my experience, there are two forms of taking damage or die from falling in games:

  • You fall into an abyss and die (but you don't see the impact)
  • You fall from a higher position of the map to a lower one and take damage as from other things like combat mechanics, traps, ...

The latter one is the more interesting. I have seen the following pattern in most games (one of that being The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim) like this:

  • Fall heights below 5 meters is with no damage
  • From heights 5 meters to 10 meters, the damage is low
  • From heights 10 meters to 15 meters you get more damage, but you survive it as long as you have good health
  • From heights 15 meters or more the damage is extremely high, mostly one-shot

And there are damage spikes from some falling heights. What are behind these damage models? Does it rely exclusive on the game designer's ideas?

Simple platformer with female protagonist? [closed]

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:00 PM PDT

Looking for a simple platformer to play with younger kids. Hoping to find something with a female character, only requiring left, right, jump controls to complete, and an upbeat theme.

Seems like the closest games I've found are either male focused or too complex.

Where do I view mystery files?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 08:58 PM PDT

At the end of a prologue in 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, the results screen says I've obtained Mystery Files. I checked the menu for a way to read them, but the only choices I see are Save, Load, Title Screen, Manual, and Options.

How do I view the Mystery Files I've obtained?

Where's the NPC that gives a free Surf-wielding Pokemon if you don't have one somehow?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 11:38 PM PDT

Which game has a NPC that gives a free Surf-wielding Pokemon if you don't have one somehow?

Or did I hear wrong about that being a new anti-softlocking measure in later games of the series?

How do I teleport someone who enters a specific tunnel on Minecraft 1.17.1?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:32 AM PDT

I am making a map on Minecraft 1.17.1 and I'm tying to make a challenge where you need to go through the correct tunnel, if you go through the wrong one you'll get teleported to the start.

I don't know how to do it, so I "tried" using the execute command but I don't know how to really use it.

I can't learn the last word of Unrelenting Force

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:31 AM PDT

I gave him the horn and went to do other quest. Now I came back for a different quest and I have to get the word, but it won't let me.
How do I fix this without having to go back and lose all the stuff I have done?

I tried restarting the game, leaving and coming back, waiting, killing them, talking to them, making my mate wait outside and still nothing is happening. Please help me.

I went back to my save files and I can't even find the save going that far back

What consequences could occur if I made a Microsoft account with fake information for privacy reasons?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 06:37 AM PDT

I bought an Xbox Series S and was forced to open a Microsoft account.

I had to enter

  • Last name First name
  • Date of birth
  • Email address

I filled in all the information with false information, except for the email, where I entered my Protonmail account. The reason is privacy.

I wrote down all the fake information so I can refer to it in the future.

Now I want to buy vouchers in the physical store for buying games. I am afraid that I will lose my purchased games (maybe even the hardware linked to my account) if Microsoft bans me for false information. I am also a VPN user.

If I fail a challenge, will that affect my ability to unlock things in the Fortress?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 07:55 PM PDT

I reached the Gore nest, and failed the challenge to get 3 unique glory kills on Pinkies. Upon repeating the level, I was unable to complete the challenges because I had unlocked all of the weapon mods.

Does this mean I cannot unlock everything in the Fortress of Doom?

And as a bonus question, how many of these challenges are only doable once?

Edit: to clarify, at the end of the level it grants a Sentinel battery to use in the Fortress of Doom, if you complete all three challenges in one level playthrough. When I played the first time, I got both Wepon Upgrades, but didn't complete the Pinkie Glory Kill Challenge, thus was not awarded the battery. The second time, I completed the Glory Kill challenge, but was unable to get the Weapon upgrades, since they are only "unlockable" once.

How can I acquire fish filet?

How can I stop seeing the migration cape on other players?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 12:00 PM PDT

Background

The Migration cape was rolled out to all eligible players who bought Minecraft before December 1, 2020 and migrated their Mojang or legacy account to a Microsoft account. Minecraft Migration cape

Turning off the Migration cape

I want to stop seeing the Migration cape on other players.

You can turn off your own cape via this setting in Options > Skin Customization: Disable your cape via Options

...but there is no option to stop seeing the migration cape on other players.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Texture pack editing and/or mods are both acceptable solutions, as long as they also revert the elytra into the original design. If a solution requires disabling the ability to see all capes, that is undesirable but acceptable.

Thank you!

Can Genshin Impact be run as non-administrator on Windows 10?

The default installation of Genshin Impact 1.0.0 must be run as administrator on Windows 10. Is there a way to allow it be run without administrator privileges?

GTA Online refuses to load

Posted: 06 Oct 2021 02:01 AM PDT

This is an updated and corrected post regarding my "GTA crashing after getting muted" question, which was unfortunately deleted as i had not provided any further details.

Okay, Quite a while back, 2019 i believe, i was playing GTA Online on my PS3, and i managed to get myself in trouble after harassing someone with the use of the in-game message feature. Shortly after said offensive message, i would receive a "message mute". All was normal until the game suddenly forces me to a deatmatch, with only 1 other person in it. I was completely clueless about the surprise and so i immediately died right away. Deaths upon deaths later, the match finally ended, with my screen displaying the end-result scoreboard. I wanted to stay no longer in this glitched minigame, so i went to press the usual button to exit. But it didn't work. More specifically, all the button tooltips below vanished, i'm stuck on loading and my controller ceased to yield any results. I then resorted to my usual; resetting the PS3. I did that, and after going through the usual, i attempt to rejoin GTA Online and it will always crash.

An update about that however: I'm still trying to fix the problem myself, and it seems that it doesn't always crash. It will occasionally tell me errors about Rockstar's servers, much like when GTA Online is currently down. Regardless, it doesn't let me log in.

Further note in case you didn't already know, the platform i'm playing on is a Playstation 3.

Please inform me if there's any missing details, I really want to get this fixed and i don't want to re-buy GTA V on an entirely different platform which will cost me even more money

Is there any battles like Gilbert on the Glorious in Trails from Zero?

Posted: 06 Oct 2021 12:00 AM PDT

I'm debating what difficulty to play Trails from Zero. i don't mind a challenge but my goal for my first run is to max DP as much as possible to get the top rank and get the full bonus from my save import when i go to play Trails from Azure.

the reason for this debate is that in Trails in the Sky SC there was an annoying fight on the Glorious against Gilbert and 4 Jaegers where to get all the BP, this fight had to be won in so many turns (not just survive)

quick skimming this FAQ for what bonus DP there is i see on one page

Testaments Training

...

  • Win all 3 fights (+5DP)

on this page

Boss: Blade Fang x4

...

  • Win the fight (+3DP)

and on this page a few "(Win for +1DP)"

trying to remain plot spoiler free i don't know if any of these are timed fights like the fight against Gilbert in Trails in the Sky SC where to "Win" is to win the battle before it auto ends. if they are like it then turning playing on an easier difficulty would make them less painful but if they aren't i can play defensive (did a boss battle in Digital Devil Saga where i was on deference for like 10-15 minutes)

So is there any battles in Trails from Zero like Gilbert on the Glorious in Trails from Zero where 1 get Bonus DP for winning the battle over just surviving # Turns?

Checking whether a minecraft account is a part of MCleaks

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:05 AM PDT

I am looking for a program/ piece of code that I can implement to prove that a Minecraft uuid is being used by MCLeaks (the service for free Minecraft alts). I've found some server plugins on the web, but I didn't come across any implementable pieces of code that I can use to check whether a given uuid is a part of MCleaks or not. Any help is appreciated.

Cannot find .minecraft folder

Posted: 06 Oct 2021 01:09 AM PDT

I see everyone using mods in Minecraft go into their File Explorer, type in %appdata% in the top search bar, and then in that folder they have a Minecraft folder in which there should be a mod file (you can make your own mod folder). The thing is that I can't find the Minecraft folder in `%appdata%.
Does anyone know what could be wrong?

What exactly causes guild war defences to get updated?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 02:06 PM PDT

Say a guild member edits their guild war defence team or makes changes to some of their defence heroes's gear. This won't automatically be reflected in the actual "snapshot" of their defence (the team that opponents will actually end up facing) from when guild war assignments were last updated.

So what causes these defences to get updated? Pressing "Assign to Building" (triggers guild chat notification) and then going back out of the menu? Adding someone, taking someone out or swapping someone for another guild member directly; does that someone have to be them? Pressing the "Save Team Info" button (also triggers guild chat notification); do I actually have to make a change to existing participants's positions &/or the composition of who is participating?

How can I get the option to ask if an RV camper can move in?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 05:09 AM PDT

I currently have 9 villagers in my town, and I am planning to build a campsite (the public works project) very soon. From my understanding, if you have 9 villagers then the camper from the campsite you've built has a chance of moving in your town. Is this the same for the RV camper, the one next to Harvey? Someone told me that they can kick an existing villager out and take their place. Do I need an amiibo card for this? Because I don't have an amiibo card. I tried talking to an RV camper a bunch of times but it doesn't seem like there would be an option for him to move in. Thanks!

How to teleport an item to a player in Minecraft 1.13?

In Minecraft pre-release 3 I was able to run the command /execute as @e[type=item,name="Big Apple"] run tp @e[tag=bigapple] @s and it would find an item dropped on the ground named Big Apple and it would teleport it to me. Now in Minecraft 1.13 official release it doesn't work. Please help!

How can I use splash potions to teleport players?

Is there a way to teleport a thrown splash potion to an entity/player on 1.12? I'm using Bukkit, so some commands might be different.

How can we change the comparing area of the /testforblocks command?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 01:01 PM PDT

What I wanted to do was a system that would permit you to save your build in an area, in sort of a nothing is changeable, not even the items in a chest.
In fact, how it works is simple: the construction would be cloned into a safe area when the system is in "save mode".

I just want to add a last thing: with the /testforblocks (with an s) command, the system will detect if something was changed during the "save mode" and then change it back to what it was.

How can we change the comparing area of the /testforblocks command?

How do you make people drop extra items on death?

Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:35 PM PDT

As seen in this video: (Skip to 5:53)


When a player is slain, they drop an Enchanting Table on top of their inventory.

How was this achieved and how can I build a system (using command blocks) that does that?
Come to think of it, what happens to a player's location when he/she dies? Does it reset to the spawnpoint? Stay the same (where they died) until they respawn? Or becomes a null value until they respawn?
