Are there any in-game hints towards the evolution methods for the mountable Pokemon?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 07:42 AM PST

After many hours of trying to keep the game spoiler-free as best I could, I eventually looked online the methods to evolve the mountable Pokemon, particularly Basculegion, Ursaluna, and Wyrdeer. These Pokemon have pretty unique and specific evolution methods.

Basculegion

Ursluna

and Wyrdeer

While I caved and looked online, I have friends who are wanting to stay clear of looking anything online. Given how these Pokemon play a part in the story, are there any in-game hints towards how to evolve these Pokemon for Pokedex entries?

How to play it safe in Fortnite?

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 10:46 PM PST

I'm a beginner in Fortnite and want to play it safe. How do you decide where to land such that there are not many players around. I have won a few games this way by waiting till everyone eliminated themselves. It doesn't always work. I know it is not the best technique, but for now, it is the only way that works for my skill level. Is there any way to win without being in many fights with other players?

Can I use a command to make Dispensers quiet?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 04:32 AM PST

I have an automatic sorting system that uses minecarts and dispensers which is giving me a headache. I tried putting the carpet block on top of it (treating it like a note block) to see if it would muffle it. Nothing. I'm wondering if there is a command I could use to quiet it.

Why does Half-life Alyx crash to desktop every few minutes?

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 05:01 PM PST

Other games are fine, but Alyx crashes to desktop every 10 minutes or so, or sometimes even restarts.

At first I couldn't even get past the menu. Googling told me to update the Oculus software on my PC, which worked.

But the crashes persist.

This is a not-uncommon problem. Other suggestions online include:

  • Updating drivers for headset/GPU/etc
  • Verifying integriti of game files in Steam
  • Increasing Windows VM max size (or ticking the box to let Windows handle it)

But none of these worked.

A lot of people suggested a hardware issue, and replacing my PSU or CPU or GPU might be needed. But I'd at least want to get some confirmation of which part is bad before spending the time and money replacing it

Potion looks like colored glass bottle when I use my resource pack

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 11:03 PM PST

enter image description here

If I use my resource pack in Minecraft, potion looks like colored glass bottle. My resource pack adds extra textures like coca-cola texture that works with CustomModelData. Also my coca-cola texture is colored too.
This is code in json file:

{      "parent": "minecraft:item/handheld",      "textures": {          "layer0": "minecraft:item/potion"      },      "overrides": [          {              "predicate": { "custom_model_data": 1},              "model": "item/coke"          }      ]  }  

Oculus Quest 2 - PC connection

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 02:00 AM PST

Yesterday I recieved Quest 2 for christmas and I have a few questions.

Can I download steam purchased games on Quest 2 To play wirelessly (for example Beat Saber)? Can I boost game performance when I connect Quest to my PC while the game is downloaded on Quest? Or does it work only for PC games?

Can I transfer game data on my dad's account to my kid account?

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 09:06 PM PST

I have a lot of data and games on my dad's account like Minecraft, for instance, and I want to transfer that data on my account because I want to start playing on my account. All my games and data are there.

Is it possible to transfer all that stuff onto my account?

Selenitic Age: Underground train controls and compass not illuminated

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 10:03 PM PST

In Myst (2021) v. 1.5.3 - Selenitic Age underground 'train': The panel for the underground train controls and compass are not illuminated and cannot be seen. I can operate the two controls but I cannot see the compass. Anyone else experiencing this or did I miss a piece of puzzle that would turn on the overhead light?

Can I use previously not selected perks in the punch card machine?

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 05:06 PM PST

From what I could find, the punch card machine allows to create a second build for the same character by redistributing and saving a new set of SPECIAL attributes and assign new perks. This means (again, to my understanding), that I can have, for example, a heavy gunner build and a shotgun build that I can switch between.

However, when I was leveling my basic shotgun build, I didn't choose any heavy guns related perks, as both shotgun and heavy guns use Strength as their main SPECIAL attribute. Hence now, I cannot simply switch from shotgun to HG, because while I've unlocked the Shotgunner (regular, expert and master) and the scattershot perks, I don't have any cards for the heavy guns (heavy gunner/ expert HG/ master HG /Bear Arms).

If I use the punch card machine, will I be able to re-select perks as I was leveling from lev 1 again, or does it only allow to select already unlocked perks?

Can I setup a PS3 to use a PS4 Dual Shock 4 controller without a PS3 controller?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 06:06 AM PST

So I just bought a PS3 Slim but it did not come with a controller. I couldn't find any PS3 controllers so I got a Dual Shock 4 instead.

Is there any way I can use the Dual Shock 4 with the PS3 console without a PS3 controller?

(I'm a Xbox user so I don't know much about this.)

Holding a key (wasd and spacebar) presses more then once most of the Time

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 07:06 PM PST

I'm playing a lot of Minecraft KitPVP and when I, for example, hold the W key it mostly presses more than once. That is not good because I lose to a lot of people just because of that. I play Minecraft Java with Badlion Client. mostly 1.8.9 Please does anyone know a Solution? If yes then, please put them.

How do you check someone's connection in minecraft?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 01:04 AM PST

I was having a meet up with my friends, and one of them kept on saying that they were lagging, and left the game, but I'm not convinced because they literally used that excuse to play bedwars on hypixel, which is probably even more lag-prone. How do I check the connection of someone in minecraft, if it is good or not?

Dwarf Fortress: Work Order condition tied to amount of dye

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:03 AM PST

How do I make a mill-plants work order tied to the amount of dye?

e.g. a mill plants work order on a quern that activates only when the amount of dimple dye drops below 10.

I'm using the DFHack workshop profile function. One combination that does not work is:

  • item type : powder
  • material : dimple cup dye
  • traits: Dye items

The phrase on the screen after setting these conditions is Amount of dye dimple dye available is less than 10 . Satisfied for next check even though I have hundreds of units of dimple dye in a few dozen bags.

Thanks!

MCPE multiplayer doesn't work

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 03:07 PM PST

When I open it from the world menu, when you press on play on the main menu, it says the multiplayer is on. When I go inside the world, the multiplayer button is off and grayed out.

Help Minecraft 1.14 pre-release 5 commands

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 08:08 PM PST

I got bored of Minecraft so this is what I'm doing for a solution. The command in theory is supposed to slow me down whenever I touch air.

The command I am trying is the following:

/execute if block ~ ~2 ~ Minecraft:air as @a run effect give @a Minecraft:slowness 999999 20 true  

Edit: Does it matter if it is conditional or unconditional. Same question for command block type.

Ps4 controller won't connect again to PS3 with cable or wireless

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 06:13 AM PST

My PS4 controllers used to connect to my PS3 normally, however they will no longer connect via cable or wireless. I have tried resetting the controllers, and using different USB cables. I don't know what's happening.
I also don't have PS3 controllers or a keyboard, and the TV controller version to move it won't work. Does anyone know a solution to this?

Official way to download workshop items in SteamCMD

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:08 AM PST

Is there any official way to download workshop items in SteamCMD running on an off-site server? Examples would be maps for CS:GO or Garry's Mod. It is possible to download the files from a third-party website with wget or upload them using FTP. But is there an official way to subscribe to them so that SteamCMD downloads them and manages the updates?

How can I get Serana to pick up items?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 07:45 AM PST

Ok, so most followers in this game are able to hold a limited amount of items when you trade with them, but can hold an infinite number of items with a glitch (I'm not really sure if it is a glitch or if it was intentional). You have to ask them to do something and then tell them to pick up an item or take all from a chest/container. However, I can't get Serana to do it because she doesn't have the "I need you to do something." dialogue option. Is there a way to get her to pick up items?

How do I remove subway routes?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 03:50 AM PST

I'm trying to reorganize my subway system, and in the process, I need to remove some currently active loops. How do I do that?

I know I can click on one to select it, but it seems I can only add stations to the route, not remove them. There must be something I'm missing.

Debugging SteamCMD/CSGO not updating

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:08 AM PST

I'm trying to update my Counter-Strike: Global Offensive server and Steam is giving the error code 0x6 however this error does not seem to be documented anywhere.

[...]  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)  Error! App '740' state is 0x6 after update job.  

How would I go about finding out what this error means and how to prevent it? My ulimit is 2048, I have 10GB storage available and everything seems completely fine, networking and everything however SteamCMD just wont update CS:GO.

What is steamcmd?

I have steam installed on my computer, but I recently found it something called steamcmd? I am not sure what it is or whether it is installed when steam is installed? What can I do with steamcmd?

How to automatically update a Team Fortress 2 server with SteamCMD?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:11 AM PST

I have a Windows server running Team Fortress 2 (TF2) with SteamCMD and I would like to enable auto-updates.

For the moment, I have to do it manually with SteamCMD using the app_update command but this is very bad as I must check daily if there are new updates.

This is what I've tried :

  • The -autoupdate arg when I launch the game (srcds.exe -autoupdate ...)
  • Putting the SteamCMD commands in a text file and using the -steam_dir and -steam_script args

Is there an easy way to do this?

How can I speed up SteamCMD download?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:08 AM PST

My app_update, on linux SteamCMD, is running extremely slow on my 100 MB/s network, so is there a way I could make it download faster? Maybe by changing the download location somehow? It also seems to be downloading in small chunks.

How do I access the cannon outside the castle?

Posted: 12 Feb 2022 02:08 AM PST

There is a cannon just outside of the castle in Super Mario 64 but it's locked! The cannon is near the water on the beach.

Can I get access to the cannon? If so, how?
