Community / Recap
« on: December 08, 2017, 11:40:01 pm »
Hi everyone,

Pretty sure 80% of you don't know who I am. That's fine.
Been around since the beginning of the DLC launch, but I can't remember a single reason as to why the community slowly went down.

I'm interested in helping the developers by getting a recap of what went wrong and why. I'm also curious myself, cause I can honestly not remember anymore. This is meant as a serious thread, so I'd like to keep the thread a bit more serious and on the track (which would be a feet for some of you, but try).

As to the devs, I'm not trying to portray the whole situation in a bad light, just simply gathering a bit of an opinion on what happened during the past years that I've disappeared, but to also see if there's any potential reason for me to return to modding here again.

Let's start!

Things of note:
  • The game is becoming old:
- Lack of update.
- No more fresh players.
  • Toxicity may play a role: not that big of a role
  • A new feature to help with competitive play: league board, look at other competitive games
  • Forums Hypothesis: They aren't mentioned into the game that it exists. Most don't look at the forums after playing the game, which leads to the feeling that what they just played is all there is.

Archiv / Calling all germans for research 2
« on: November 27, 2016, 02:11:44 pm »
Hi,

Some of ya'll will recognize me, but I'm in a bit of a hurry so... This is aimed at germans but also any germanic country.

I'm a student majoring in game design and development, and we are currently doing some research about simulations and how it relates to certain countries. My assignment is to interview a german that plays Euro Truck Simulator 2 often and loves simulators. We are not trying to stereotype the germans with the typical "Germany is sim lover",  but trying to investigate why certain games are more liked in certain countries.

So if you wouldn't mind answering a few questions as detailed as possible and as serious as possible for research, please pm me :)

I can promise it won't take more than 3 mins to answer :)
Again apologies for not speaking the glorious german language.

Off Topic / Hdd help.
« on: September 15, 2013, 06:40:32 pm »
Alright, for a month there has been bsod's on my pc, every time i started it up and go to te login screen, inwould go to a bsod after 5 seconds. Or when i do get to log in it crashes to a bsod. I used to be able to get in my hdd. Now i cant. It just failed. Now what happens is that it goes through the hp logo and then goes to a black screen with a blinking underscore line. And thats it. I tried reinstalling windows, the windows disc doesnt recognize my hdd. Bios does and i ran the hp diagnostic tool and it says my hdd passed. And so did my ram.

The bsod's i've been having are:
Driver_ Irql_less_or_equal (multiple times)
Pfn_list_corrupt (only 2 times)
Bad_pool_header (once or twice)
Interrupt_exception_not_handled (few times)
Memory_management

Os: windows 7 64 bit
Hdd: western digital 1 tb (brand number unknown)
Psu:corsair 500 watts bronze
Gpu: amd radeon hd 7770 1gb
Processor: amd phenom x4 9650

If im missing something please advise, i really need the pc back. I dont mind losing data or reinstalling, but it needs to work again. I beg of you.

Thanks, Beta

P.s. the wd hdd was bought around march. So its not that old.

Typed on iphone. Sry for grammar mistakes or spelling.

Other Games / Portal 3 Ideas. (Game is not developed)
« on: July 05, 2013, 05:18:05 pm »
So guys, I really liked the Portal and Half life series.
So I said to myself. Why not come up with a story line for Portal 3 myself?
So I started:

Spoiler
Portal 3
Chell is found outside the facility. Or so you thought. GlaDos then calls her again. It was a hologram. A new test chamber of survival for humans to rehab. She begins walking around. Sees a barn house. GlaDos then explains that she uses Chells memory to format her past. Chell goes in the barn house and sees a picture of herself. And the father. With a man which appears to be the uncle.  GlaDos sees the picture. The uncle is Scientist 0673. She explains who Scientist 0673 is. It appears that Scientist 0673 was a survivor in the Aperture science laboratories incident. GlaDos explains that he has been roaming for quite a while now, but she could never have found him. Only seen him. She says that it appears some of his colleagues called this scientist Ratman, he was notorious to be found around every  corner.  Observing what was happening. GlaDos then tells how she knew that Ratman was alive. (Ratman Comic). GlaDos tells that it seems Ratman wishes to destroy GlaDos. Chell in the meantime is seeing how the chamber changes from scenes, which also match what GlaDos explained (It came from GlaDos' Memory). Chell then sees the big painting of this scientist and points at it, GlaDos interprets this as a question, she says that it had been years without seeing him. She explains that she doesn't know where he is now, she has sent Atlas and P-Body after him. But with no success.  Chell then sees a drawing on a wall, GlaDos also notices this, it seems to be a drawing of a safe room. GlaDos notices that Chell wants to go after him. GlaDos says: "Fine, but as far as my memory goes. Humans don't survive so long where he went". So GlaDos does know where he is. But it doesn't want to go in there. So Chell goes off. But before she left. GlaDos tells her that where she goes. There shall be a past memory lying there. And that she takes P-Body and Atlas with her. So that she can observe what happens. (She goes through some old broken down test chambers, that GlaDos cannot control or fix).  Throughout the test chambers GlaDos starts to remember how she used to be turned on and off all the time. How she was first developed. She explains that she used to be a core. The first few cores that were made, she shows Chell through one of GlaDos' monitors, the old design of cores. She explains what the functions of the cores were. Explanation: The Cores used to be a mobile robotic assistance. She explains that the scientists used them for testing. They used to be tested as P-Body and Atlas were tested. They had different functions.(1)/  But through time it seems a lot of these old cores started to malfunction.  She remembers seeing Cave Johnson. Then she starts to have memories from Caroline. She said "I thought I had deleted her in the end of another disastrous event by a moron". She starts to see the past. Everything she sees is being seen by chell through the monitors. Chell then after a long round of test chambers, gets into an elevator. A very old design.  GlaDos tells her that she doesn't know if it works. So Chell takes the chance and gets in. It seems to work at first. As she presses the button to go down,  she notices a few drawings, but it was too dark, GlaDos tells Atlas to turn on his light. GlaDos and Chell both see this drawings. GlaDos then notices something. An old Core. She remembers this Core as Mars. She says that Mars used to control all cores. That she used to be the main core to all cores. She explains that Mars had been the first core to be integrated with a portal device. But scientists had realized that Mars also started to malfunction. And the scientists ordered to shut her down. Cave Johnson as an old male. Saw what had happened. Cave Johnson decided to ship it to a facility where it would be destroyed forever. So they put her in a special container. In other containers also came other old cores. Cave J. had decided to destroy every core, but he knew Black Mesa wanted to get a hold of these cores. So Cave was desperate to ship them to the facility. But on the night that it was supposed to be shipped. It had disappeared.  GlaDos explains that she was a revived core that was kept by MR. Johnson. She also explained that in every core there was a special reactor that kept them alive and running. Mars had a special crystal in there. The crystal was also sent to be destroyed. She then said that she saw what had happened to the ship. She saw the crystal reinstall itself in Mars. As if Mars had had a way to also control the crystal.  So Mars was turned on again. And this time she saw what was happening. So she decided to use the portal device installed in her. She had teleported herself out, along with the Borealis, to an external portal gate outside of Aperture Laboratories.

I have made it a bit easier:
Locate your Warband folder and extract the mountblade warband folder to the folder that contains the mountblade warband folder.
-If you have BR_Pants already thats because it was Brunswickers (If you replace won't do anything different, it's just for those that didn't have the texture)
-Yes, British_hats must be replaced. (make a back up of your folder)
-Replace any dutch_....dds files you have. (There are two, Dutch_shakos and Dutch_shakos2, I will mix em up later)

-Line Infantry Replaces Coldstream Guards
-Artillery Replaces Royal Artillery
