| 00:00.08 | seebs | Also they tend to be in windows which have to be in front of Rift to be visible, at which point they are also preventing it from running at normal speeds. |
| 00:04.35 | ZorbaTHut | GPU tends to be the only important one out of that pair. I use procexp, which (with a little configuring) can show the current gpu usage as a tray icon |
| 00:05.03 | seebs | I tend to be fullscreen windowed, but I guess I could switch to windowed. |
| 00:18.04 | Noshei | ZorbaTHut: missed your last wisper I was reloading ui |
| 00:18.19 | ZorbaTHut | wonder if there's a bug in how those settings update :) |
| 00:18.32 | ZorbaTHut | reloadui isn't likely to fix render issues, unfortunately |
| 00:19.04 | Noshei | restarting client right now, I turned on everything and set everything to max |
| 00:22.03 | Noshei | ZorbaTHut: I could see others graphics when I relogged that time |
| 00:22.40 | ZorbaTHut | excellent |
| 00:22.48 | Noshei | I just checkthe the hide others hit fx box and relogged again, going to see fi they are hidden now and what happens when I enable it without logging |
| 00:25.02 | Noshei | fullscreen fx is horrible on performance |
| 00:26.58 | ZorbaTHut | I plan to improve it, but it'll never be all that amazing |
| 00:27.07 | Noshei | 40-50 fps running around SI right now, will test with same settings on live |
| 00:28.38 | ZorbaTHut | I'm gonna drop out of the live server, everything seems to work roughly as intended. will wait for people to post feedback online :) |
| 00:30.19 | Amadeus- | I wonder who it is that could maybe consider fixing synergy crystals so that higher level crystals will work with the lower tier gear |
| 00:30.29 | Amadeus- | it's a pain having to have multiple versions of crystals when you do pve and pvp |
| 00:33.15 | Noshei | that would defeat the purpose of having multiple tiers of crystals then |
| 00:34.55 | Amadeus- | no...it shouldn't punish people for having to ahve multiple sets of gear |
| 00:35.00 | Amadeus- | I think the point is that you have to continually upgrade |
| 00:35.11 | Amadeus- | i.e., when you upgrade your gear, you have to upgrade your crystal. |
| 00:35.20 | Noshei | yeah |
| 00:35.22 | Amadeus- | it doesn't make sense to have to then buy a completely new crystal for a new set of gear. |
| 00:35.26 | Amadeus- | just because you do pvp and pve |
| 00:35.39 | Amadeus- | I just want for the 3rd crystal to work with the 2nd tier set of gear as well as the 3rd. |
| 00:35.53 | Amadeus- | not for the initial crystal to work for them all : |
| 00:35.54 | Amadeus- | :) |
| 00:36.32 | Noshei | but if the final crystal works with all gear why not just only have the one crystal? |
| 00:42.14 | Noshei | ZorbaTHut: this boss is pretty bad on fps |
| 00:42.30 | Noshei | but my fps was very stable throughout at 21 fps |
| 00:43.01 | Noshei | very little varance from that, and it felt smooth |
| 00:48.09 | seebs | https://scontent-a-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/t1/q71/1623650_256777374482069_218821207_n.jpg <-- heh. |
| 00:48.54 | seebs | Well, what if the final crystal worked with all tiers, but gave lower bonuses with lower tier gear. |
| 00:49.12 | seebs | So the first crystal would give Bonus Set One with Gear Set One, but nothing with anything else. |
| 00:49.34 | seebs | And second crystal would give you Bonus Set One with Gear Set One, or Bonus Set Two with Gear Set Two, but nothing with gear set three, and so on. |
| 00:49.45 | seebs | So the second crystal would be an unequivocal upgrade from the first. |
| 00:51.46 | Ivnedar | d'oh, slept through alarm |
| 00:52.21 | Ivnedar | seebs: small red circles come from the dragons, big red circles come from the big eye cannon things |
| 00:54.14 | seebs | Eye cannon thing*s*? |
| 00:54.34 | seebs | ... I may be confused. There was a giant eye thing. That and dragons and the random SL guys were about all I found. |
| 00:54.43 | seebs | Are there also cannons I could take out somewhere? |
| 00:56.08 | Ivnedar | the big eye that you take out at the end |
| 00:56.32 | Ivnedar | and the smaller ones that you take out on the way up when you're shooting down the platforms on the sides |
| 00:56.52 | seebs | ... |
| 00:56.55 | Ivnedar | the big red circles you pretty much have to deal with, no quick way to get rid of them |
| 00:57.11 | Ivnedar | small circles you get rid of by shooting the dragins a couple of times |
| 00:57.15 | seebs | Oh, the little cannons on the platforms, I remember. |
| 00:57.24 | seebs | I just find that one too hectic, I can't sit still for five seconds and orient. |
| 00:57.56 | Ivnedar | destroying little cannons drops green orbs that heal you |
| 00:58.04 | seebs | Yeah. |
| 00:58.08 | Ivnedar | so you can sit in the red aoe for a little bit as long as you keep killing cannons to heal |
| 00:58.19 | seebs | But you run out of cannons. |
| 00:58.33 | seebs | I'm still not consistently sure how to tell whether an orb is picked up by clicking it, attacking it, or just running over it. |
| 00:58.34 | Ivnedar | yup |
| 00:58.44 | Ivnedar | touch it |
| 00:59.46 | Ivnedar | if you haven't done storm breaker protocol yet, you'll find the same green orbs in there to heal your mech |
| 01:01.40 | seebs | Oh, yeah, I saw them there. And I was confused because I somehow formed the theory that I was having to Do Something to activate them in Hero Rises. |
| 01:06.36 | Amadeus- | seebs, that's what I meant with the crystals. |
| 01:06.52 | seebs | But I couldn't tell because no clear indication of whether or not I'm interacting. The orange things in exodus of the storm queen were also just picked up by running to them, I think. |
| 01:06.55 | Amadeus- | the 3rd crystal would function like the 2nd crystal, when used with 2nd tier gear |
| 01:07.32 | Ivnedar | Usually, if your mouse cursor changes into a grasping hand when you mouseover the item, you click to interact, otherwise you touch |
| 01:09.03 | Ivnedar | hrrm, resource diamonds have changed on pts |
| 01:09.12 | Ivnedar | they're coloured based on profession I think |
| 01:10.39 | Ivnedar | oh lovely, and the map data changed too :D |

| 01:55.31 | Noshei | can't sleep ZorbaTHut? |
| 02:11.36 | ZorbaBeta | nah, just got home. I'm up for a bit longer at least |
| 02:31.49 | seebs | Oh, interesting. |
| 02:32.02 | seebs | Healing talents, like chloro, affect healing *potions*. But not healing *tonics*. |
| 03:15.04 | Noshei | OMG, most OP build EVER! |
| 04:57.37 | Ivnedar | oh? |
| 05:09.02 | seebs | I am inclined to think that either one or the other of those is a bug. |
| 05:09.18 | seebs | Although overall, I would say it'd be pretty reasonable for healing spec gifts to buff things like healing philters. |

| 06:21.53 | Amadeus- | Email just came for EQNext Landmark alpha ...let's see what this is like... |
| 06:24.04 | Noshei | Amadeus-: gl downloading it |
| 06:24.11 | Amadeus- | heh |
| 06:24.21 | Amadeus- | I got the installer ...let me se e teh speed |
| 06:28.54 | Amadeus- | Noshei, seems to be downloading pretty well so far |
| 06:29.00 | Ivnedar | ZorbaBeta: response about the two 0 coords |
| 06:29.02 | Amadeus- | pretyt fast actually |
| 06:29.33 | Ivnedar | apparently each block is actually on the 0.5 line, not the 1.0 line, and they're all rounded down |
| 06:29.41 | Ivnedar | so +0.5 and -0.5 both say 0 |
| 06:30.06 | Ivnedar | oh, wait, nah, ok, the line between blocks is the 0 and 1 line |
| 06:30.15 | Ivnedar | position between lines is truncated |
| 06:30.18 | Ivnedar | explains why there's two 0's |
| 06:30.32 | Ivnedar | you're at 0 between -0.9999999 and 0.9999999 |
| 06:33.13 | Ivnedar | New class got added today to Trove too for anyone else playing the alpha |
| 06:34.26 | seebs | I keep planning to go look but I have so many things to do! |
| 06:34.49 | Ivnedar | lol @ people complaining about Trove being a cash grab |
| 06:35.05 | Ivnedar | when the items they're complaining about are bought with currency you get every day when you log in for free ... |
| 06:37.33 | Ivnedar | so, in the ALPHA, to get the second class, you currently have to log in for a few days or do some quests |
| 06:37.41 | Ivnedar | once you get that class, it's unlocked on your account |
| 06:37.45 | Ivnedar | and you can switch to it |
| 06:37.54 | Ivnedar | people are quitting the game already over that ... |
| 06:56.59 | seebs | I am sort of surprised by Vladd's announcement that Reaver will stop being a tank soul. |
| 06:57.17 | seebs | Although I do see the issues with having three tank souls. |
| 06:57.31 | Ivnedar | hang on, what? |
| 06:57.32 | Ivnedar | looks |
| 06:58.55 | Ivnedar | I wonder which will be next, vk or pally |
| 06:58.57 | Ivnedar | I'm guessing vk |
| 06:59.34 | seebs | I would not be surprised to see them both stay. Four was definitely too many. Two is pretty reasonable. |
| 07:00.04 | seebs | I have proposed that Reaver should become support, not DPS. If the heal-from-diseases had splash to party members, and the heals gave damage-taken debuffs and such, that'd be sorta awesome. |
| 07:01.16 | Ivnedar | Wondering if I should give up and level up a cleric |
| 07:01.55 | seebs | I would have one of everything, at least, just for exploring and experimenting. |
| 07:30.16 | Noshei | omg, you can actually mine yourself into a hole in eqnl |
| 07:34.04 | Ivnedar | lol |
| 09:00.08 | Amadeus- | I just noticed this application in my Wildstar installation called "Houston" ...you guys have to see what it does. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19522021/Houston.avi |
| 09:00.14 | Amadeus- | Ivnedar, seebs ^ |
| 09:01.19 | Amadeus- | every component of the game is an Lua addon ..and all of the source is available in that custom application. Some damn nice features for addon developers. |
| 09:03.44 | Ivnedar | so an addon can completely replace a built in component of the ui? |
| 09:03.59 | Amadeus- | it appears so |
| 09:04.07 | Amadeus- | when you open the addon interface in the game ...EVERYTHING shows up |
| 09:04.29 | Amadeus- | my intuition is that you don't modify it ..but rather "disable" the default, and "enable" your custom. |
| 09:04.36 | Amadeus- | but, I haven't really messed with it. |
| 09:04.55 | Amadeus- | that application "Houston" is their own custom thing too |
| 09:05.00 | Amadeus- | runs very nice |
| 09:05.48 | Amadeus- | there are addons already on the forums availble for download ...but I just haven't tried anything yet |
| 09:05.56 | Amadeus- | Wildstar is fairly close to release |
| 09:06.25 | Amadeus- | it's an ok game I'd say..especialy if you liked WoW |
| 09:14.10 | seebs | Yeah. In some ways I prefer the "base UI also in the addon API" model, because obviously it means you don't end up spending a year and a half unable to do something at all because it's not made it up the priority queue. And for instance, you could never have a problem like "you can't respond to the events which close windows". |
| 09:14.41 | seebs | On the other hand, it requires that you *start* with that in mind, and also that you be much, much, more careful about security in Lua, because you don't have a clear and unambiguous gate between addons and functionality. |
| 09:27.09 | Ivnedar | It would be interesting to see if it would work if the ui developers were given the restriction of "you only get access to what the general public get access to" |
| 09:28.26 | Noshei | glad to see they are not using scaleform in wildstar |
| 10:15.01 | seebs | I have to admit, what little I've seen of scaleform has not left me with the impression that it's made things easier. |
| 12:09.32 | Ivnedar | I'm finding myself doing the wall jumps from trove in rift |
| 12:09.42 | Ivnedar | I facepalm when I notice, even harder when it sometimes works ... |
| 12:10.10 | Ivnedar | in trove, if you jump at the right time while jumping against a wall, you can jump again |
| 12:12.44 | Ivnedar | gah, trying to decide on an unstable artifact icon |

| 16:53.49 | Imhothar | the sky is falling? or did it already impact? |
| 16:54.03 | ZorbaBeta | main hard drive isn't being recognized by main computer |
| 16:54.12 | ZorbaBeta | curiously, it may be recognized by my laptop |
| 16:54.15 | Imhothar | unfortunate |
| 16:54.44 | ZorbaBeta | it's all backed up, so it's not a catastrophe if it's totally dead, but it sure will take a lot of time |
| 16:57.02 | Imhothar | yeah |
| 16:57.15 | Imhothar | the thing everyone knows will happen one day but pretends it never will |
| 16:57.39 | ZorbaBeta | eh, it happens often enough that I'm kinda used to it and can recover hard drives rather quickly |
| 16:57.52 | ZorbaBeta | unfortunately step 1 is usually "set my main computer to pxe-boot system rescue cd to my laptop" |
| 16:58.03 | ZorbaBeta | and given that my main computer is the one that's down, it's made the process substantially more complicated :V |
| 16:58.16 | ZorbaBeta | still, almost solved |
| 17:01.14 | Imhothar | guess I'm not toruting my drives enough |
| 17:01.19 | Imhothar | had no failure in years |
| 17:01.32 | Imhothar | maybe that's a sign it's coming soon |
| 17:03.07 | ZorbaBeta | the fact that I regularly maintain 14 computers is probably a contributing factor to this |
| 17:03.46 | Imhothar | your copyright piracy side business? |
| 17:05.36 | ZorbaBeta | main computer, web/chat computer, router/firewall, server, laptop, media box, office computer, wife's computer, mom's laptop, mom's computer, 4 museum computers :V |
| 17:06.00 | Imhothar | I see the word computer a lot |
| 17:07.30 | ZorbaBeta | well, it boots up enough to read the partition table, but seems to fail after that. guess it's time for ddrescue |
| 17:08.11 | Imhothar | heh remember the first time I tried to install two OS on the same machine |
| 17:08.32 | ZorbaBeta | that's always fun |
| 17:08.36 | Imhothar | that ended up in testdisk, recovery console and all kinds of other tools whose names I already forgot |
| 17:08.41 | ZorbaBeta | the trick is to install windows last :V |
| 17:08.53 | ZorbaBeta | er, that's backwards. First. |
| 17:08.56 | ZorbaBeta | Linux last. |
