    General Game Discussion thread for April 2026

    I just stick a balloon on him and let him wake up on the C-130, or whatever is picking them all up. Needless to say, I went into that technology as much as I could. D-Dog! Naaaah. She must have seen your cute D-Dog and decided to let you win. Balloons rock! Errr, as long as the tank crew...

    What are your thoughts on paid mods?

    Mixed. Plus: people on average will work a lot harder on a mod if they are going to get paid for it. You could even get companies that work exclusively on modding games! Minus: people are going to be far less willing to share. Using somebody else's paid mod in your paid mod is going to mean...

    Coconut Monkey Cornerclub

    That might be a source thing. Is the music in 5.1, or is it stereo? I know all my music is stereo (at best). Desktop sounds are just .wav files, which are mostly mono or stereo. It could be that older versions of Windows just checked to see if you were in mute or mono, found that you...

    Wait, I've liked an Eagles song all this time!? View: https://youtu.be/iP5eb848Kpc?si=Mpw7ByuIzxHiyG5i

    Huh? Windows 11 still supports 5.1 surround sound. Are you talking about some headphone option, @Colif?

    When I maximize that to fill my screen and turn off the lights in my room, it seems about right. I presume the game takes place after nearly all city lights have been extinguished.

    Using CoPilot to Adjust Your Game

    I would be afraid of just dropping an .ini in there without reading every bit of it. Heaven only knows how much of CoPilot's info is from old versions, or possibly even different games entirely. I would definitely back up the .ini and the save files first. P.S. Sometimes .ini settings from...

    PCG Article Discussion for April 2026

    Sometimes in the opposite way. If a game is marginally good and you expect it to be great, you'll be unhappy. If it's marginally good and you expect it to be weak, you'll be pleasantly surprised. I heard bad stuff about Batman: Arkham Knight and Arkham Origins, especially the later, but found...

    Finished TV series—who watches?

    There's got to be. For a positronic circuit to work, it all has to be made of positrons and anti-protons. Oh! Or maybe it isn't a proper circuit! Maybe there are just beams of positrons? Positrons aren't like photons, though, they bump into each other when two beams cross. I think I'll take...

    General Game Discussion thread for April 2026

    Big update to Planet Crafter is out: View: https://youtu.be/A_zVrvzd6Qw?si=eXPTPdLfGdxY7_s0 Maybe my 4th mission? It took place just inside Free Worlds' space. The mission length without being able to save is going to be a big problem for sure, at least until semi-retirement. (Then I'll...

    And Battletech is eating me up yet again. It's fun to drop 6 mechs plus a tank immediately! It does make for longer battles, though. Last night, I had a mission to destroy some buildings. They had a whole bunch of turrets around them and, before I even got to them, I was attacked by a Locus...

    PCG Article Discussion for April 2026

    Interesting idea. And that's probably what I said when it was announced, too, and then never thought about it again.

    General Strategy & Sim thread

    Where's the appalled reaction?? Guess I'll just laugh. I thought X4 was bad taking 2 minutes to load a save (it has since gotten faster). Battletech Advanced is nowhere near even 10 minutes. Maybe 10 minutes to start the game, pick a mission, and get into the battle.

    The Final Fantasy series has a spell named after the Ultima series! View: https://youtu.be/vVnzdVN3poA?si=0eX1caM7fClf_LkL

    Finished TV series—who watches?

    So, I'm watching the Star Trek: Next Gen episode with the Casino Royale. In it, they find a book. Riker hands it to Data and orders him to summarize the story. HELLO! Is that the first use of AI to summarize a long, written work in TV?? P.S. Data has a positronic brain, right? Positrons...
