Hehe! I know EXACTLY the bandits you mean! The one just before "the garbage". Those suckers! And somehow, I always manage to forget when going through that checkpoint too! That's a really really good tip actually! That would suck to make 50,000 and BAM! Gone! Lol!

Holy crap, you're right! I have never noticed that before, but you're right! Good eye!!!

They really do. And not just in games like this either. A good example of this is the borderlands games. I put thousands of hours into all manner of crazy modded guns/grenades/characters in BL2 and TPS. Then there was BL3. I barely was able to convince myself to play it through just once, let alone half a hundred playthrough's. I'm *really* liking the near/far future mod stuff for KSP 1 also. I do wish they'd put more effort into threading/optimization for physics in KSP1 since it would be cool as heck to do stuff like make Lagrange stations, have these larger stations be more responsive, etc, but them's the breaks I guess!

Good advice! Just don't do like the follow up video I made for this though and end up stacking a body full of stuff and have the game engine delete it on ya! :P

Thanks, I really appreciate that! This was kind of my first attempt at making something big in orbit, but wait until you see the next one! I didn't think the game engine would be smart/accurate enough to do things like build large frames with MULTIPLE docking ports, but turns out it will. I've started making large "modules" that plug into each other with either 4 ports at the corners or 9 ports at each connection point using the 6 point connectors and the white tubes in the stock game. These frames are huge compared to a single docking port like this station uses. So far, I have the complete engine block, fusion reactor power/fuel block, cooling block and fuel/RCS fuel block done and docked. Seeing those gigantic glowing red cooling panels is cool as heck. I didn't document most of it, but I might redo it and make a video of it as well. :P Thanks for taking the time to comment!

Thank you Swamp! It's much appreciated. It makes all the fighting to dock them suckers worth it! :)

I tried to translate this, but I'm not sure what you were meaning. Thank you for taking the time to comment anyway! :)

Erm, I'm not sure what you're referring to here. Is that a particular version of rawaccel or something?

@@GamingHelp Thanks for this great explain , but the thing that I want to know how to do it cuz I play Rainbow six

Oh, I see, I didn't know what you meant by R6. The approach would be the same regardless of the game you play. Finding a quiet spot to figure out your high sensitivity (how much it takes to do just one turn using most of your mouse pad or as much of it as you can tolerate if its' huge), figuring out what's good for aiming by playing around to see what sensitivity works best (which will almost certainly be slower or a lower sensitivity, then use the process at 13:36 to build a profile. If you're not used to working with technical software, it's going to take some work. Rawaccel/Kovaaks was written by programmers mostly for other programmer types so it's probably going to take a bit of work to sit down and think about what every variable does. Once you're done and you have a good profile, MAKE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN you back it up. That means making a copy somewhere else NOT on that hard drive. A thumbdrive or SD card is idea. Otherwise, if something happens, you'll be doing all that work over again. Let me know how it works out. :)

@@GamingHelp Thanks so much for the detailed advice! I'll definitely take the time to figure out the high sensitivity first, then dial it down for aiming. Rawaccel/Kovaak's seems like it'll take some work to understand, but I'll make sure to back everything up once I have a solid profile. Appreciate the help-I'll let you know how it goes! Also, is there a way we can stay in touch? Do you have a Discord or another way to communicate?

@@forcelinehd: I DO use discord, but kind of rarely these days. I do check for messages here on youtube at least a few times a week though so you can just reply to any of my video's here and I can get back to ya. You could even just bookmark this video to find it easy again. One thing I would also say is just try playing around with Kovaaks/rawaccel and don't try and understand it all in one go. Fiddle around a bit each day and give it time to soak in. You may also end up writing stuff down to make heads/tails of it. I'm a full fledged programmer (I actually found Kovaaks BECAUSE he used the same intercept library I was using for my own version) and it even took me a while to really get a grasp of how to make *exactly* what I wanted. The one part of the video here where I overlay what each variable does should be super helpful also. I'm sure the versions have some new stuff, but those should be the main variables. Hit me up again if ya run into trouble and I'll get back to ya next time I pick up the gaming machine. :) Good luck!

I use hold when I did this. Basically, it comes down to this: Once you trigger the slide, your momentum, etc, is going to move you wherever you're moving and you don't have ANY say in it until that slide animation is done. BUT, you can still look around while that slide animation is happening. The slide is basically just a quick tap. I actually did a half arsed handcam version: th-cam.com/video/IDNuDQbmnRw/w-d-xo.html My thumb is what's hitting "slide" in that clip. This entire thing is basically just entering the run animation fully, then snapping your look where you want to go and tapping "slide" to "lock" that direction in, then looking somewhere else while the slide happens, generally the same direction you were looking when you started. It takes a bit of screwing around to get it, but it's nothing but button timing and feel. :)

Not from what I seen. They might have if you left and came back though.

Yeah, it can take a lot of work to get your fingers to cooperate sometimes. What sort of game are ya having troubles with?

@@GamingHelp on games like cod, if i was to reach for R to reload, i usually miss and press E. Ive got glue on my keyboard rn and ngl it feels kinda better, till at least ive improved my muscle memory

@@RUSTRP-y5c: Yeah, I feel ya, it's SOOO easy to accidentally hit the wrong button under pressure. I had a heck of a time with this too when I first started getting back into competitive PvP stuff. Doing open world, PvE was fine, but when you have fractions of a second, it has to be muscle memory because there's just no time to think it through for an old guy like me. In the one game *I* used to play, your ultimate/super was something that you generally only got once per match and so you had to make absolutely certain you didn't trigger it by accident. I kept hitting it instead of my shield button so I cut a piece of hot melt glue stick about half an inch long and glued it to the top of my ult/super button. Then, for good measure, I cut a sewing needles down and pushed it into the top of the glue nib and dulled it JUUUST enough that if I press gently, it's fine, but if I whack it hard like I do the others, it smarts. Then, to top things off, I would sit in front of the TV with my keypad beside me unplugged and just think about actions, then hit the appropriate button. Shield... Whack... Super.... Whack. Grenade... Whack. Grenade... Whack. Super, whack... Shield, whack. Over and over. It sucks being so old and sick and naturally bad at gaming like *I* am that ya need to do this kind of thing, but it eventually worked!

@@GamingHelp thanks mate, honestly even rn as im typing ive still got the glue on my keyboard. It defo does work

Your English is just fine. :) I wonder if perhaps a hand fan might help. One issue I had is that just due to age and health (I'm 50+ and housebound, I love it, but it beats me to death. Lol!), even with dry air, even with A/C, I sweat like a feature so I set up two different fans to keep myself dry/cool. One for the rest of me, but one that blows down partly on the pad, partly towards my arm/fingers/hand where it touches the pad. Without it, I get about 10 minutes before I'm sticky, with it, if my health would let me, I could go 16 hours solid and still be totally dry. Plus, it feels far more consistent over time as well and consistent helps land those wild shots we all crave. :) I just used a small plug in walwart power supply of about 6 to 9 volts and wired it up to a cheap PC case fan and then hot melt glued it to a little mount I made. Anything that holds it in place would work. Definitely worth trying. A case fan is like 10 bucks. Just make sure you get the wiring correct the first time. Red to red, aka, red to positive. Getting them backwards will kill lots of fans first time within a fraction of a second. But they're cheap too. You could buy three of them for like 20 bucks and just do it at random, throw one out if you get it wrong and do the next one the other way round and still have a spare if it wears out. :)

@@GamingHelp Thanks for the advice. I really appreciate your time. I'll keep experimenting and see how it ends xd, the idea of the fans can work, I have a small one in some place, thanks!

@@JustTeXer: You are very welcome. I would love to hear how it works out for you as well! Best of luck! :)

Maybe I'll try and record more stuff when I play around then. :) Are you meaning that you would like to hear more about the physics and hardware and such? I didn't think hardly anyone would even be interested in the science/tech aspects of it. I even deleted the real physics stuff I'd talked about at the end of this recording here before rendering/uploading. Lol! I'm probably the rare type of player in that I started from the other end. When my health was still okay and I was younger, I did a lot of small personal test stand stuff like build/test ramjets/rockets/small turbojets and such. Heck, my blowgun I use for my air compressor to blow dust even has a delaval nozzle on it that I built (Rocket nozzle). I took a shadow graph of it in use and you can see the mach diamonds plain as day. I like doing trivial back of the napkin type stuff too like fiddling around to see how small of a solid rocket booster stack you can go with (Both for number of stages and size of stages) and still get a small stick of gum sized RF transmitter into LEO and other such silliness. Needless to say, I like that kind of stuff, but doing back of the napkin stuff is a lot of math doing it the old fashioned way. Stuff like Kerbal lets you play with it a lot more casually. :P But the real rocket science stuff *is* why I bought Kerbal. I want to test stuff like Oberth effect first hand, seeing if my mental map of orbital mechanics details holds up, test having to boost in the wrong direction to catch stuff in orbit and all those weird kinds of counterintuitive stuff. :) That boosting backwards to get a lower orbit to catch up apparently even threw the guys during the Gemini program when they were first fiddling around with docking in orbit. They'd boost towards the target and it would get further away. Boost at it again, STILL got further away. It's neat as heck to get to play with that stuff. Thanks for taking the time to comment, it's appreciated!

Thanks for taking the time to comment. :) I'll check them out for sure! I got most of it sorted within the first 30 minutes to an hour of looking around though, this video was just a recreation of the funny stuff I did for humor's sake while looking around on first run before I forgot what had happened. Just recreating the first 3 or 4 things I stacked up while looking around in the first few minutes to maybe the first 30 minutes or so before I forget the funny things that happened. I'm not really dropping Kerbal's head first into terra firma or using srb's as stage separation (At least, not anymore anyway! He died like he lived.. Smiling and happy!). :P Though I have to admit, I did leave a few on the mun for a while and whipping around Kerbal after docking them together. Okay, so a few still *are* on the mun, but eh. Strangely, they don't seem that unhappy about not having brought anything to eat or any other hardships! Just all smiles and giggles! Lol! Having said that, they also don't seem that sad about re-entering without any heat shield either! Your description of Redux sounds like one of the two things I'm after, the other being able to create arbitrary values for engines, tankage, atmo/planet size, etc to test/play with various stuff. I'll probably be doing at least a few more video's about Kerbal, especially a really trivial fast start guide for science/engineering folks like myself for the basics since most of the issues I had was just looking up keybinds and figuring where/why/how various systems were and how they worked. I suspect I'm not the only one who just wants it as a physics simulator. I have to say, I *really* like how they simplified a lot of this, but still kept the physics accurate enough to play around with simulating real world type stuff. I think they struck a pretty good balance! Thanks again for taking the time to reply! :)

I'm not quite sure how I feel about that. :P *Goes into Crabby Old Bugger (COB) mode* Dang kids these days! Deadass, no cap, these gooners edgin' in their gooncaves be freakin' me out! Lol!

@@GamingHelp I'm 41.

​@@johnroscoe2406 Nice! Your rocking chair and shotgun are in the mail from the COB organization too then! :)

That's probably good advice. This was just a recreation of the first hour. I found all the stuff I needed immediately after this, then spent the next few days doing redneck things in orbit like playing space bumper cars, docking stuff and fiddling around, and my personal favorite: Putting Kerbals on the moon (Mun? :P ) and leaving them there for a few days while I think up a rescue plan! I have to say, these little fellas are REALLY hard to make sad. It's like there's no failure big enough to turn that frown upside down! Lol!

I doubt I will. I only bought it as a visual orbital mechanics simulator. It's less hassle than using a calculator and paper/pencil. Though I *was* hoping you'd have far more control over things, but I haven't looked at mods and such yet, maybe they have what I'm after. I'd like to be able to simulate arbitrary stuff right down to arbitrary size stages, delta V, size/scale, and such. Once I get some more free time, I'll probably have a peek.

Thanks man, I super appreciate it. These video's take me forever so it's nice to hear people find them helpful. If you like a lower friction and/or consistent friction, for sure you should try one! Right now, I'm strongly considering a glass pad. Not because the plastic ones are bad or anything, but mostly because I live far away from civilization and stuff's hard to get here so I can't just go get another one (can't even order it by mail). I'm hoping between my giant sheet of teflon for mouse feet and a glass pad, I can go half a decade or more without replacing anything! :) Best of luck!

I'm not sure what ABR stands for, but moving out of the area to trigger new replacements seems to be what despawns them. And not ALL of them either. It's a weird sort of random despawning from what I've noticed.

@@GamingHelp it's a mod for Clear Sky. I had a hard time with vanilla Clear Sky tbh.

@@Neros_light: Ah I gotcha. Yeah, I can't answer that one way or the other for sure.

Indeed you did! I actually stuck a lot of kitty purrs/mews through my video's. :) Glad someone noticed it! :)

@@GamingHelp COOL!! Big cat fan here!

Well, then I have good and bad news. This particular kitty passed away last fall. She was very sick and old (About 20 years old). I was VERY lucky to have her though. You probably can't really tell, but *I* am very sick as well, housebound actually, and have been for many many years. But, through the vast majority of that time, Nawnee (my kitty) was there with me. She was my best friend. When I slept at night, she curled up laying against me. When I was up during the day, she was curled up either beside me or between my legs. In fact, 9/10 games I posted here, she was curled up with me. But she was a cat like no other. In her entire life, not even once did she ever try and bite me or scratch me. She went to her grave without me even knowing what she sounded like angry. She just decided we were friends and that was that and the best little friend possible. I didn't even think an animal could be that close to someone. And of course, *I* would have done anything for her. I miss her immensely and a part of me went with her that can never be filled. But, as much as it sucks that my health went to hell all those years ago and as much as I miss her, I was still *very* lucky to have had the time with her that I did. She was perfect in every way. Here's a video of her about 6 months prior to passing: She used to pretend she couldn't get herself loose so that *I* would pay immediate attention to her. I always stopped to help. :) th-cam.com/video/3vwILjABQbU/w-d-xo.html

Awesome! Just be aware, the "put it all on a body and carry it" thing can be tricky. I haven't gotten around to doing that video, but I was actually going to make a follow up on this and only got about 4 "cycles" of spawns done and the body I was using to dump the guns/ammo into vanished in front of me. :) I think it's safer to just dump em on the ground and carry them. Hope ya like the game! Also, in case you don't know this yet, the mechanic/gun guy at the freedom base seems able to do pretty much anything as far as upgrades and without having to find upgrade info for him so making money with this and using him (and the freedom base guy), you can rapidly upgrade one of early shooters like I was using here. Hope you're liking the game and thanks for commenting!

люди нині тупі

Thanks! :) I'm still sad about my follow up video though. I was going to fill hundreds of guns into a single body and drag it back. He vanished after I got like 50 guns on him. *sad panda*. Ah well.

@@GamingHelp oh it's okay bruh next we want a video about artifact hunting

Legit! I didn't show it here, but after this 3/4 of an hour run, I checked out the room and you can pretty much bump the mouse a few pixels and get another menu of ammo/weapon/shock baton. :P

Yuppers. From what I seen here, it'll basically go till you start the engine and cook the suckers! Though after an hour or two, your framerate isn't so hot and you end up with all kinds of audio bugs. Or at least, *I* did anyway. :)

Same, I always just press the launch button as soon as I can lol

That would depend on your kind of pad. I've recently tested a few other things, one of which is beeswax. Like, the real deal from a beekeeper. If you have a hard pad though, you can pretty much just try stuff and wash it off with soap/water and a small scrub brush (Plastic bristles only for obvious reasons). I suspect any decent furniture polish will work, but the one thing I've noticed regardless of what I've used is that in many cases, less is more. By that, I mean apply it sparingly. You could just try whatever you have on hand. I'd try and apply whatever you're trying on a very tiny spot that won't bug you if it gets buggered up though. Some plastics and various solvents don't get along well and may melt the surface so try a tiny bit on the very edge or something.

Thanks! :)

@@GamingHelp im still tryna work out how to do the reverse slide

@@NSWSPIRITWOLF: It's just looking directly behind you, hitting slide, then looking forward again while you're still in motion. If you can do it perfectly to one side or the other yet, just double the distance ya snap the mouse before hitting slide and snapping it back. :) But yeah, the sliding backwards one can be a big and fast snap if you're using a lower sensitivity like I used.

What *I* would like to know is where they FIND all these guys! There's no end to them!!!!!!!! :P

Yeah. Pretty much. But they started it! :P

Maybe! But I have to admit, I don't even know what that is! :P

@@GamingHelp It's a concept some of us old-school zoners came up with back in 2012. Fellow zoner WTFSexyHeadphones and muhself have been trying to rekindle interest in them. Here's an example of one of mine done in the Anomaly mod: th-cam.com/video/Ug3Xk0YT3ug/w-d-xo.html

For the most part, I think what you explained is pretty much on point. The one thing I would say is that even though fast short flicks FEEL fast, you'd actually be surprised how much slower the actual distance per unit time is compared to a wide flick. I've actually been meaning to add some code to this project for years now, but never seem to get around it and it's mostly for similar reasons to what you mention here. I'd like to be able to have a couple variables that can be twiddled to prevent changes in sensitivity while tracking. Basically, for movements that are obviously not flicks and for movements that are "still on the ramp" (aka, haven't hit peak sens yet, but are past any offset), be able to configure it so that microstutter in movements doesn't also result in microstutter in sensitivity as well. I finally found a copy of visual studio 2012 though so maybe I'll get around to it one of these days. :) Thanks for commenting!!

@@GamingHelp Thank you for the explanation. Movement that is indeed still on the ramp might be an issue as well, although I cannot imagine it very clearly at this point as you are tracking the acceleration should be almost non-existent and if your profile is set up somewhat decent this should not be an issue. But I need to dive deeper into this to identify all the quirks.

Wow, that's an AMAZING idea! I never even thought of that. Does that eliminate the weight issue of carrying stuff?!?!?!

@@GamingHelp Somewhat. Dragging bodies doesn't have a weight penalty. However, (at least in SoC) you can't bring bodies from one location to another.

If you use the body of one of the military guys, follow the fence to the fallen tree, make a left and head up to the tree stump (hidden cache). From there you can head to the village and use the footlocker next to Wolf for storage. Using the body and dragging it out allows you to loot everything (pistols/pistol ammo) which adds up.

And then she shot me in the face to thank me! Lol! Ah well. :P
