One thing that’s undeniable though, the guns sound great and feel just as great to shoot. You also can’t detach attachments you buy or find and place them on any new gun you find, which is unfortunate since money to buy new weapons can be hard to find and what’s available in the shop is randomized per level. It wasn’t uncommon to pick up a great carbine but had a scope that zoomed in too far. You’ll find guns and attachments scattered around the levels and they’ll come with color-coded attachments in the same style as your favorite looter-shooter (green, blue, purple, orange) but you’re stuck with whatever scope you’re given. I can’t think of many guns that are downright unusable but because surviving is so important, I found myself sticking with guns I was familiar with. Most times I swapped them out but it’s not because they’re bad. Cleaners also come with specific weapons but you can swap them out for others your find as you play. Something as simple as using Mom’s instant revive to early can have a major impact later. These buffs feel much more evident and can greatly change the flow of a level and create added considerations that compound all the other strategies involved. My favorite is Mom who gives the team an extra life, gives herself an added healing inventory slot, and can instantly revive one teammate per level. That downside to all this preparation is you won’t feel many of the buffs until much later, making it hard to know when a card is impacting your build.Ĭleaners also come with cards which function as perks, and they give one buff to themselves and on one to the team. It’s a lot of front-end prep work that does slow the action down from level-to-level, especially if you’re waiting on a teammate to figure out their strategy, but the payoff is worth it when everyone is firing on all cylinders. So you have to think about what the director might do to make your life harder and order your cards appropriately. The game itself (known as The Director) is also throwing its own cards at you called “Corruption cards.” They modify Ridden and levels by giving Ridden armor, for example, or creating a thick fog on the level. If you place a card too deep into your deck when you need it, it can make your run much harder. At first that was a little disappointing as it took away the excitement of more complex deck building like in card games like Hearthstone, but it was clear the control you’re given is more important as you progress further into levels. It’s based on the order you placed the cards in your deck. It looks like they’re pulled randomly, but they’re not. Every level, you’re able to choose one card among five. Even where you place your cards in your deck takes strategy. Choosing cards adds an interesting layer of strategy and molding your character into one that more easily fits your style of play delightfully enhances the chaotic shooting. It’s great you can equip cards that suit specific playstyles like a melee focused style. Individual cards can make your bullets penetrate enemies, make your guns hit harder, give you more health and stamina, increase your luck or ammo, and even buff your team. You’re able to carry a reasonable 15 cards and create decks that you can adapt to a certain playstyle. But by the end, you see the best levels Back 4 Blood has to offer and I had fun shooting zombies with guns that feel great.Ī card system is the engine that makes Back 4 Blood go. Most of what makes Back 4 Blood end up feeling tired comes from a repetitive, plodding first half of the game, a useless story, and a solo mode that doesn’t challenge you enough or reward you at all. For the most part, Back 4 Blood is a fun multiplayer game with friends or randoms, but it can get unusually boring. Turtle Rock Studios tries to reach back into its history and grab the joy of shooting zombies and retool it as a modern-day spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead.

Apparently he changed the backstory a bit, and this was not caught by Cyan employees in time (who were working on Riven at the time).Īs for the strategy guide, I own it. In the book of Ti'ana the Cleft is indeed implied to be in the middle-east, but this is artistic licence by the book's real author, David Wingrove. This has been confirmed by Cyan employee RAWA ("Dr Watson"), as well as by Rand Miller. One sentence in under the Until Uru section doesn't make sense to me: "Server administrators can access players have (for example, cones and barriers in the style the DRC had put them up can be positioned inside the caverns)." Should the sentence read "Server administrators can restrict access players have."? I believe that Chucker created this section as I'm unsure of what he meant, I'll leave the edit to him. I'm leaving the text here in case anyone else feels there is more valuable info in it than I have found. Most of this text sounds non-factual - for example, the "It takes a lot of Dirt to make a Mudpie" sentence feels out of place, as it isn't explained well. I added some of this (entirely reworded, though) into the main page. Still Later, their publisher, Ubi Soft, gave it the name Myst Online as a code name, and finally Cyan decided to call it Uru: Ages Beyond Myst. Later, they called it MUDPIE, which stands for Multi User Dirt Plasma Interactive Experience. Originally the game was called DIRT, which stands for D'ni In Real Time. Uru had been under development by Cyan Worlds for four years since 1998. They had developed a technology called "The Art", which enabled them to write books so descriptive that they transported the reader to the worlds they described. The D'ni were a race of people who lived in an underground city in a huge cavern somewhere under New Mexico. The game's plot revolves around the D'ni civilization. Uru is a game of exploration, the goal is to explore mysterious worlds, or ages, rather than to shoot at things. Uru is different than many other computer games out there. This new game takes advantage of both 3D realtime technology to explore 3D realistic worlds in real time, and of a broadband Internet connection enabling multiple players to experience the game together.

Unfortunately, after Ayane defeated Marie Rose, both realize that Honoka has been abducted by Christie during their fight. Ayane later ambushes them again, intending to take Honoka into custody, and is forced to fight Marie Rose. Unbeknownst to her, however, said ninja, Kasumi, was present and had overheard them. Afterwards, Honoka directed Marie Rose to a confectionary shop and implied that a ninja often frequented there before admitting she had been joking. Marie Rose scolds Ayane for hurting Honoka, but Ayane simply acknowledges that her abilities were indeed what she suspected. Unbeknownst to everyone, however, Ayane and Hayate observe this from the rafters, and are shocked at Honoka's ability to perfectly copy other fighters, which they've only seen once before.Īyane subsequently ambushes Honoka and proceeds to fight her. Tina offers her another match in the future before continuing to fight her father. Tina bests Honoka in battle and Honoka remarks on Tina's strength. Upon Tina defeating her father, she notices Honoka and invites her up for a round, with Honoka eagerly accepting. She later watches Bass and Tina fight and even attempts to mimic the latter. Hitomi wins the encounter, although Honoka is nonetheless satisfied and politely thanks her by bowing and vowing to train harder. Hitomi accepts, although she makes clear she won't hold back. Honoka later finds the runner up to the fifth tournament, Hitomi, about to train for the current tournament, and despite Marie Rose trying to stop her from butting in on her training, requests that they spar since she plans on entering the tournament as well. Leifang refers to Honoka as "an airhead" but fights her due to her curiosity of Honoka. She later encounters Leifang and after recognizing her style as taiji quan, challenges her to a fight. She challenges him to a fight and uses his master's stance, but it is unknown who won the fight. She was curious enough to try and read it but was stopped by Marie Rose for being too close to Eliot. She later meets Eliot as he is reading his scroll from his master, Gen Fu. At some point later, Honoka ended up doing something that concerned Marie Rose enough that she was forced to prematurely end a scheduled report to Helena in an attempt to stop her. Although Honoka was defeated, she is able to copy Marie Rose's dodging moves, with Ayane observing in the distance. Marie Rose dodges the attack, impressing Honoka enough for her to decide to have a friendly fight with her. After Marie Rose and Honoka meet, they are attacked by a pterodactyl in Lost Paradise. Ayane, too, is assigned to keep an eye on her. Thus Helena orders Marie Rose to protect Honoka. Moo, about how she had several firsts during her vacation and expressed interest in taking another trip, before making sure to thank the Owner for their hospitality during her time on the island.ĭue to her similarities to Raidou, Honoka is wanted by MIST to complete Raidou's revival. On the last day, she talked with her "friend", Mr. Honoka won a raffle (although it is implied that Zack had been involved ensuring in her win, as she mentions that she recognized the guy who gave her the winning ticket to the island from somewhere), and although hesitant due to it meaning leaving her grandmother behind, she ultimately went to the island for two weeks. It was this event in particular that piqued Victor Donovan's faction of DOATEC, MIST's interest in her. She was disqualified as a result, and Honoka herself was left with no memory of the incident. She had gotten as far as the second match of the fifth division of the Asian qualifiers when her secret powers kicked in, releasing a burst of energy from her right hand that caused her opponent, Thomas Blake, to be knocked over, leaving both with minor injuries and interrupting the match. Honoka acted as a participant in the fifth tournament. She ended up being raised by her grandmother since her birth. 5.2.5.2 The King of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match Onlineįull details of her early life are unknown, other than that her mother conceived her with the infamous ninja exile Raidou around five months prior to his raping Ayame, which also resulted in the conception of her half-sister Ayane. This leaves subtle voids in the plaster and gives it texture.Ĭoncrete naturally has some shade variation. I added the second coat just like the first, but to add texture I used a skipping motion on the second pass. The purpose of the second coat is to add texture and shade variation. The next day, I applied the second coat of Venetian plaster. So don’t panic thinking that you order the wrong color or they tinted it incorrectly. The wet plaster will be much darker than the actual color. Then I did the same for the other two sides. I repeated this until I had an even coat on the side I was working on. Then I increased the angle to about 30 degrees to spread the plaster with varying lengths of strokes. I applied a thin coat of plaster by holding the trowel at about a 15-degree angle. I loaded my hawk with a generous amount of the Cement Gray plaster and started in the upper right corner. I decided to work on one side of the fireplace at a time. I used a smooth roller to apply an even coat over the entire area and let it dry overnight. Before applying the primer, I taped off all of the edges to create a clean line between the fireplace and walls. Since this application was done over exiting drywall, I used Anchor Primer to help the plaster stick to the surface.

One story describes how all the other animal groups (land, water, and air) wanted the platypus to join one of them. They are important in Australian aboriginal culture. The milk emerges from pores in the skin of the abdomen which the puggles then lap up. They produce milk, but don’t have nipples.įemales have mammary glands for milk production, but no teats. They hatch from their eggs using an egg tooth, are completely blind and hairless. This means under a blacklight they glow! No one knows why yet. They store both food and gravel in their hamster-like cheek pouches which they take to the surface to munch on.Īmazingly, just last year (2020) scientists discovered that they are biofluorescent. Instead, they use gravel to grind down their food. Their duck-shaped bills don’t have teeth. Instead, their gullet goes straight to their intestines. Like fish, they don’t have an acid-producing stomach. They swim along the bottoms of steams, using the electroreceptors in their bills to find their prey. When they hunt their nose, eyes and ears are closed. Platypus don’t use sight or smell for hunting. The receptors for this are found in their bill. They use this to hunt prey hiding in the mud of stream floors. They are one of the very few mammals that use electroreception, aka the ability to sense the electricity created by the movement of muscles. Males have an ankle spur that delivers venom strong enough to kill dogs and cause excruciating pain in humans. While it might look like their tails are for swimming, they are in fact used primarily for storing fat, like a camel’s hump. Their large beaver-like tail is used for fat storage. They are well-adapted for this, with webbed feet for swimming and fur that is waterproof to keep them warm. This means that they live both in water and on land. Both lay eggs, which later hatch live young. There are only two kinds of egg-laying mammal left on the planet today.Īlmost every mammal gives birth to live young, except for the platypus and echidna. This group contains only 5 species still alive today: platypuses and 4 species of echidna. This is one of the three main groups of living mammals. They are part of a group called “monotremes”. The appearance of platypuses is so odd that the first European naturalists who studied a preserved one thought they were fake and made of other animals stuck together.Ģ. People didn’t believe the platypus was real. They are classified as near-threatened by the IUCN, which has recommended that it is upgraded to a threatened species, due to habitat destruction and declining numbers in all states. However, they are now a legally protected species in Australia. Platypus are rare, elusive and were historically extensively hunted for its fur. Life span is around 17 years in captivity, but it’s thought to be less in the wild. They are nocturnal, meaning they are active mainly at night, and also crepuscular meaning they are also active during twilight (sunset and sunrise). Their predators include birds (hawks, owls, and eagles), snakes, water rats, goannas (a large lizard), and crocodiles! They hunt using their bills which sense both movement and electric signals produced by moving animals. They hunt fresh-water crustaceans, such as shrimp and crayfish. They spend most of their time in the water, but also have burrows in the side of riverbanks where they rest. They inhabit small streams and the surrounding areas. They are native to Eastern Australia, ranging from the colder highlands to tropical rainforests. Hawks, owls, eagles, snakes, water rats, goanna and crocodiles They are so odd, that the first scientists to encounter them thought they were fake.ĥ0cm (20in) in length, Females: 43cm (17in)Ĭrustaceans (freshwater shrimp and crayfish), insect larvae It’s famous for its odd appearance, with a duck-shaped bill, a beaver-like tail, and the feet of an otter. The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) is a semi-aquatic, egg-laying mammal that is native to Australia, and often referred to as the ‘duck-billed platypus’. The durability of the thin lugs and insulators may pose a concern, but with proper handling, this kit can still deliver reliable performance. However, with its reasonable price and complete set of tools, this kit is a valuable addition to any professional or DIY electrical projects.

I think Logitech needs to (a) employ some people who know something about MacOS, and (b) re-employ some old Logitech developers who understood user-interfaces with the net result being that GHub be reinvented. Logitech Hub allows me to upload a profile linked to my account or public, when I download the profile on the second account/machine, the profile is being assigned to the default profile. (I don't have any other Logitech devices.) The Problem: I want to use Logitech Hub profiles in multiple Windows accounts and multiple Windows Devices. In addition to this, my GHub sends a huge amount of data to somebody, presumably Logitech, but this is rediculous since I'm talking about a mouse here that should not require internet access what so ever. The mouse drivers are susceptible to processor load, so it is sometimes difficult to 'land' on your target because the movement speed changes while the cursor is moving. (With on-board profiles, I should be able to use my configuration without needing GHub to be loaded.) Understanding how profiles (particularly default and on-board) work is way too hard and unreliable. The UI is anything but intuitive I repeatedly have to redefine all my saved macros because GHub thinks it needs to reconfigure itself (usually after waking from sleep), once the primary button is remapped, it is impossible to do any further configuration in the GHub UI, switching to shift mode causes problems with defining other functions. GHub on MacOS is essentially `Trash-ware`. Does anyone know if this is yet another bug, or is there a different location where the profiles are stored? Thanks in advanced. Looking at the contents of the settings.json, I found out its the location where the games 'recognized' by GHub keep the game specific controls and information for the more popular games. Go to localappdata\Biomutant\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor 2. This folder contains 2 integrations folders related to applets, an empty scripts folder, and 2 settings files one with a. I do have a LGHUB folder in local appdata folder, however there does not seem to be anything resembling profiles inside. However, I couldn't find anything online for the GHub specific profile location. After searching awhile online I was only able to find the path for the LGS software which is:Ĭ:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Logitech\Logitech Gaming Software\profiles Given my experience with GHub I have been refusing updates and wanting to backup my profiles. Where are these profiles suppose to be stored? No matter what I do I seem to end up with a devastating bug or error forcing me to square one. I have done complete purges of GHub even using command-line to filter and remove anything with ties to logitech/GHub. But worse then anything is that every couple of months (assuming after updates are installed) I return to GHub to see that all of my custom made profiles and any macros, key bindings, and preferences are completely wiped from existence. However, since I have been using GHub I have had it fail to update causing a endless loop, requiring a reinstall at least 5 times. I am someone who uses profiles and macros for not just games but most all programs, making extensive use of macros to automate almost everything. I have had countless issues with GHub ever since being forced to switch from the (reliable) Logitech Gaming Software, once I got the wireless G502 Lightspeed mouse. To enable the button, click on it again and either drag an assignment back onto it or click USE DEFAULT.Does anyone else have a infuriating amount of GHub breaking bugs and errors?.Click DISABLE to deactivate the button and clear any programming.Click USE DEFAULT to reset the button to factory settings.To remove the binding, click on the button or the command name on the line.You can bind the same key to more than one button if you wish. This indicates that the command is bound to the button. Once the button is programmed it should appear as shown below.Click anywhere in the 1 cell on the left and drag it onto the white circle on the Forward button. In the example below, the ‘1’ key is bound to the Forward button. Scroll down the list to the key you want to assign/bind.

Windows 7 and later ship with a wide range of fonts dedicated to specific scripts. A Thai font like Leelawadee, for example, will perfectly display a Thai document with appropriately sized Thai and Latin (English) characters. If your file only uses one script (in addition to basic Latin) or if you’re happy with a universal font, then you can simply select Options|Font in EditPad’s menu and pick a font that works for you. Universal fonts like Arial Unicode MS or Lucida Unicode tend to be bland. For example, monospaced fonts that programmers like only support alphabets that can be displayed nicely in a monospaced fashion. Styles that make a font beautiful or practical usually only work well for specific scripts. This allows the font to be optimized for those scripts. Most fonts only support specific scripts. This often happens when your font does not support one of the scripts and automatic font substitution is picking an inappropriate font. Some scripts like Thai that need more vertical space may look tiny next to English characters. If your file mixes different scripts then some scripts may be perfectly readable while others may look odd or be too hard to read. These rectangles are placeholder symbols that indicate that the font cannot display these characters. With the correct encoding selected, some characters may appear as hollow rectangles or as question marks inside a rectangle. EditPad supports all Unicode encodings and all legacy code pages that still have any relevance. To fix this, select Convert|Text Encoding in the menu, choose the “reinterpret” option, and then select the encoding that makes EditPad display the correct characters. For example, an ASCII file misinterpreted as UTF-16 will show Chinese gibberish. If EditPad displays your file with the wrong characters then you need to change the encoding. For EditPad-or any other editor-to display text correctly it needs to use the correct encoding to know which characters to display and it needs to use a font that can actually display those characters. |
