Off-Topic Discussions / Desktop Screen Recorder

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:48 pm »

Fraps doesn't save completely uncompressed video, IIRC, as that would take too much HDD bandwidth.
Also, Fraps is only for DirectX and OpenGL, AFAIK, so not really what's asked for here.

Have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_screencasting_software

Edit: or maybe Fraps would do, if it's just in-game recording that's needed. Aaanyways, more options there on WP.
You won't be able to record Elements with Fraps though.

It's probably original health + N-1 for all of them, with the normal ones starting at 1.

In-game Troubleshooting / Card layout

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:37 pm »

it would be nice also to have the ability to move the cards to where you wanted in the playspace. I suspect that's a lot more difficult than it sounds judging by the way some of the coding seems to have happened.

It would also have some not so obvious side effects, as attack order and other things depends on placement.

General Discussion / v1.14?

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:37 pm »

The trainer is still v1.13, so you can use that to compare (assuming it's not different from non-trainer in any non-obvious way).
Sell prices are lower in the trainer, so that seems to be one change. Haven't tried the sundials.

General Discussion / what happens when the desktop is full?

Well, presumably something similar would happen for permanents if you fill both rows.

Just do a turn or two, and it should be fairly obvious if it's a farm or something else.

Deck size is a decent indicator as well, as the farms are (almost?) always 30-card decks and the god farmers are (almost?) always 40+. You can see the deck size while the coin is spinning.

Forum Archive / seeking speed poison builds for t50 and pvp

The AI will never mutate Physalia, as the threat level of Physalia is not high enough for it to be targeted by spells and abilities by the AI.

They can be targeted by sniper and freeze and such, but never mutate or improve.

If you're interested in how the AI will treat Physalia and Chrysaora, have a look here: http://elementsthegame.wikia.com/wiki/User:Chriskang/Sandbox/10
The only difference, as far as I can tell, would be with the damage dealing spells (lightning and the damage-per-quanta ones).

Might also be a kind of desynch, as the top50 is handled separately from everything else.

Could be that he had a highscore registered and reset the account (deck is water starter, or very close to that).
Might also be that there's been some confusion on whatever is used to link highscore with game account (say, someone using the same email for two different accounts).

The other case (-375 score fire mark) is Levgre. Haven't seen him post anything about it though.

It might also be that QTs don't count as pillars, or something like that.
