[proven dagger]

I've sampled well over 600 different kinds of beers so far.
I've drank way more than only 600 beers though.

[lean fable]

I see i see

Masculine urge to play fear and hunger 2 rn 😫 But its too harddd

[north shadow]

play valheim instead

[lean fable]

I did make to 100 hour kilometer now cuz it was holiday for 1 week w my friend i did made it till the mountain and got my few silvers and i'd like to show my base #building-screenshots

It is like a bit in the back

[north shadow]

simple but effective, i like it. not a fan of the cliff wall, i usually iron those out a bit even if it is a literal snicker mountain of work

[lean fable]

Behind the cliff wall is like really deep so no one can enter also we got 2 star puppies :D

[north shadow]

remember to feed them for heals (and offspring) if you have the last boss dead it will spawn charred warriors everywhere and they will whittle your wolves health down

[frosty walrus]

They only spawn at night, just sleep.

[lean fable]

i murdered bonemass and we js entered the mountains planning to craft the kratos axe

[north shadow]

sleep might not always be an option

then you still got a bit to go before it gets dangerous youre good

[lean fable]

How good is crystal axe :3c

[scenic wing]

Its moveset is probably one of my favorites! (Battleaxe, specifically)

[frosty walrus]

It's useful for hitting multiple enemies and staggering fulings in a single hit but you should also have a faster weapon such as a sword, knife or spear because the slow attacks and movespeed reduction aren't great for every situation

[lean fable]

Im planning to get it and maybe fleshrippers w it i dont main arrow due to my friend wanted first haha

[scenic wing]

Crystal is one of those materials that I wish had more uses 😁

[lean fable]

haha i see

I kinda wanna use bludgeon weapons but i feel they are too op 😭

My friend is power poisined cuz of the bludgeon weapons 😭

[untold night]

I'd even be happy if we could use it horizontally.

[south quarry]

Does anyone have a server I can join that they can spare me 10 iron ingots?

[oak falcon]

Nah, I'd swamp crypts

[tardy vale]

we are in pre-production. so not anytime soon

[scenic wing]

Dumb question… but what exactly is pre-production? Like what does that entail? 🤔

[north shadow]

my guess would be planning, creating ideas and concepts, trying a few different things and testing, making projects and that kinda stuff probably

[scenic wing]

That makes sense, drawing board type stuff. Spitballing ideas, concepts, stuff like that.

[tardy vale]

writing down stuff, pre-plan how things will go, make a flow chart etc etc

[lone totem]

We got like 3 or 4 new staves with Ashland iirc? Curious to see what kind of new staves the deep north will bring about. 🤔

[scenic wing]

I’m curious of what the food will be 😁

[marsh sentinel]

Cold.

[storm anchor]

Staves or food?

[scenic wing]

Both 😂

Best food in the game is a block of ice

[little veldt]

obviously need some ice wine in the Deep North

[craggy haven]

Ya some alcohol to keep warm but has a hang over and drunk effect would be interesting

[polar crystal]

I present to you mead

[gaunt ingot]

makes your camera all blurry and wobbly af--i'm sure folks would LOVE that

[umbral fog]

Do you mean loaf of water?

[half hawk]

Hi everyone

Quick trivia question, what do you find funny in the lore of Valheim ?

[vivid field]

trivia?

[half hawk]

Maybe it's not the good word

but "non important question"

[smoky quarry]

Ulf thought life would be easier in the plains than the mountains. That's one of the funnier things.

In fact in general just how ulf always thinks life will be better elsewhere, only to find it keeps getting worse

[half hawk]

hahah I get it. I didn't meant in that way but I maybe like a mob or something like that that the developper would have put as funny in the game

I don't know if there is any of this

[crisp idol]

God knows my prayers, and what i want...all i want is her back again forever.why remove her from me if he know shes all i want?

[smoky quarry]

Oh, in that case funny trivia of the game rather than the lore.

||you can buy love potions from the bog witch to try and attract a mate... only, it attracts big, hairy trolls. Hope you want a troll for a girlfriend/boyfriend||

[gaunt ingot]

an abusive troll, no less

[half hawk]

Yea, totally @smoky quarry, sorry

[smoky quarry]

Don't worry about it

[scenic wing]

Making some IRL queens jam tonight

[flint bloom]

I ❤️

[lone totem]

Nice, love making homemade jam/jelly

[hardy tinsel]

hi

[hardy tinsel]

i have started to spare trolls, purely because i view them more like animals than evil creatures like most of the undead in the game, for similar reasons i stopped killing dvergr and deer, boar, necks and stuff like that 🤩

[rugged stag]

@marsh sentinel #valheim-chat message

Thwackey 😄

[hardy tinsel]

ahh imagine the deep north has only dual-wield variants of weapons, but the axes skill gets a battle-axe.

[gaunt ingot]

it will be interesting to see if they do or don't do weapons for all the 'classes' or types already established, and if that will or won't extend to the 2/1/dual variations

like personally, not so sure we do need a 1 hand axe, if we get a dual & 2hand

but then again, axe + shield, is a strat someone might want to run

and so IDEALLY, in the last biome...maybe they should have that option even?

i pray fists, polearms, and kinves are not left out in the cold 😉

[lone totem]

I know my friends salty about the Ashland weapons. He runs the pole arm so no new pole arm, and his backup is axe and shield and the new axe is dual. Lol

[gaunt ingot]

lol, dual axes is so good tho

or at a minimum fun

[lone totem]

I think they're really cool but he's used to his shield.

Think he's gonna try to run the Ask set since there's no new pole arm for the bonus pierce dmg

[smoky quarry]

I daresay more of the older, conventional weapons may get added with time

[hardy tinsel]

deep north should have just, fucking everything 😎

[smoky quarry]

But that's only a "may".

We also have the fact that there's a gaping hole in the plains too, there's no "light/medium" set there

[hardy tinsel]

ahh the plains disappoint me, there should be more uses for black metal.

more build pieces especially

[smoky quarry]

To be honest I don't necessarily mind that most of my use for black metal is making chests since it's the only metal that kinda comes to you in a sense

Build pieces to take the load off iron a bit would be quite nice though, especially since black metal is "renewable"

[hardy tinsel]

the plains feel unfinished or something, and i almost think the mistlands do aswell.

the ashlands is just peak in general

[smoky quarry]

Mistlands has this problem where the progression is extremely binary, in a way that many other biomes aren't

[hardy tinsel]

i feel like theres not enough magical creatures in a land of supposed magic, just a bunch of bungs.

[smoky quarry]

You have nothing... until you have everything

That's kinda how mistlands feels. It represents a massive (and sudden) power jump to me

[hardy tinsel]

wdym, like when you get the first bit of refined eitr?.

[smoky quarry]

You basically can't do anything at all in the biome without black cores. But with 5 while irs annoying you can do everything.

Even the black forest which is the closest offender of this lets you upgrade your bow or make troll armor before you get access to bronze

No need for cores

[hardy tinsel]

well i wish there was a light armour set in either the plains or the mistlands because thats a big fricking gap between fenris and ask.

[smoky quarry]

Mistlands is just so stupidly binary to me that way and I do think that's a glaring flaw with the biome. Any additional content it gets should aim to fix that imo.

Plains needs a medium armor set I think

Something that uses lox pelt

[hardy tinsel]

that certainly does need more uses

i just wish there were more interesting mobs in the mistlands...with all the lore and how ominous it is and the impression left by the gjall i am disappointed by just bugs.

[smoky quarry]

Bugs... and rabbit... scaly things

[hardy tinsel]

the gjall was so awesome and so creative, then you have giant cockroaches and straight up ticks 😭

[smoky quarry]

While I detest fighting the gjall with a passion I can't deny their design is creative

If I was to like, rework mistlands a bit I'd probably try and lean into a chess motif a bit with it.

The Queen is the strongest chess piece after all.

Regular seekers will be like pawns, seeker soldiers like knights and you could add 2 extra enemy types based on rooks and bishops, then you have a King miniboss somewhere

Enemies in the miztlands being bugs kinda makes sense because it's a giant graveyard after all, bugs feasting on their remains, dvergr smacking them away to try and claim the soft tissue for themselves

[hardy tinsel]

well i really quite like chess so that would be kinda funny haha..

a bishop bug that harnesses some of that crazy mistlands lightning

[tired harness]

The sole thing I would change is probably the most-requested change: make wabbits tameable.

Other than that I think they nailed the biome.

[hardy tinsel]

haha....i still say worst boss fight but ya knowwwwww

[smoky quarry]

Yeah, I'm not asking for the biome to become crowded with enemies like.the ashlands are, I know pre nerf mistlands used to have way more enemies, but I think it feels cheap to add both a large number of enemies and restricted visibility in one fell swoop.

[hardy tinsel]

...i...like...i think i like the mistlands but....ehhhh....mmmmm...mehh..sorta, the inclusion of magic is the most interesting thing to me, its kind a pretty biome, it also made my friend quit the game as soon as he beat the queen because he disliked the biome so much, when i forced him back he said the ashlands is his favourite biome.

[tired harness]

Mistlands nerf was moreso about the AI of the seekers being stupider 😦

[tired harness]

Just press K. Fight over. 😛

[smoky quarry]

I haven't properly fought the queen to be able to give it a fair judgement of whether the boss fight is good.

[hardy tinsel]

its okay, just kinda annoying and kinda disappointing for a boss concept.

[smoky quarry]

But I think if the arena itself counters the boss or allows for cheese with minimal setup then things need changing

[tired harness]

It's largely the same as all the other ones.
Dodge, wait until it is your turn to attack.

[hardy tinsel]

its just sorta thematically after fighting yagluth and right before fighting fader a kinda boring boss.

[smoky quarry]

My first fight vs the queen was mostly jurt me attacking a stationary target and occasionally smacking adds because the queen got stuck against the wall near the entrance trying to aggro the skelletts

[tired harness]

Take that and add "she occasionally moves before being stationary again" and that's the fight.

[hardy tinsel]

Well i hear all about how great and new it is that she has like new attacks at different phases 😱

[smoky quarry]

Nah, I'm sure she would actually attempt to use strikes if she could get close enough to something without a blocker in the wah

[tired harness]

The point of her fight is the ads.
And unfortunately we have amazing AoE tools that make the ads a non-factor.

[smoky quarry]

Like that's the thing she barely attempted to attack at all

[hardy tinsel]

if the point is the ads then thats really really fucking annoying 😭

[tired harness]

Have you not played many MMOs?

[smoky quarry]

Put it this way if there were more different seeker enemy types (again, chess motif idea) that allows for more add types she could summon during the fight, with different combinations harassing you in different ways

[hardy tinsel]

no..

[tired harness]

more ass types

👀

[hardy tinsel]

more breast types when

i can see that maybe being not unenjoyable, as it is now...i really get sick of the seekers.

[tired harness]

Standard boss design in any raid/mythic/dungeon etc.

There is always "the ads boss" where the point is managing what gets spawned more so than managing the boss itself.

[smoky quarry]

Tbh I've always hated fighting adds bosses. Like I get them thematically

For the queen it makes perfect sense to harrass you with adds, but they need to actually do something other than just be a punching bag

[hardy tinsel]

nahh man i'm a shonen anime fan, i don't want any weak-ass fodder having the audacity, my fight is with the big bad, the fuck outta here 😤

[tired harness]

I'm watching the door to queen unlock while having this convo, lol

[smoky quarry]

Like she never even summons a seeker soldier

What kind of queen is that?

[hardy tinsel]

i wish she used mistlands lightning somehow

she's just not cool

[smoky quarry]

Like imagine if theres a seeker rook which is way more aggressive and charging straight at players, kinda like how old seekers used to be, and whatever their version of a seeker Bishop would be using electric attacks

[hardy tinsel]

more enemies using lightning 🗣️

[smoky quarry]

And have her summon regular seekers, seeker soldiers and the 2 new enemy types instead of seeker brood

Could imagine the various add combinations being almost like an attack order (Bishop, rooks) or a defense order (seeker soldier, generally unthreatening but requires constant attention and is a damage sponge), with maybe 2 seekers assisting in both cases

Like, royal jelly is an ingredient for magic recipes, and thebqueens power buffs magic. You'd think the seekers might channel that at least a bit

[tired harness]

And the queen is dead!

[rugged stag]

That's not recent news. Been that way for 2 years now

[marsh sentinel]

Oof.

[cold mortar]

🤣

[lean fable]

What's going on here.

[hardy tinsel]

hi pink lotus crown cookie milk pink lotus

[lean fable]

Hi sparkle star obi Ron sparkle star.
It's currently 6:40am

[hardy tinsel]

9:40pm for me

[lean fable]

Go to bed.

[umbral fog]

Mornin gjall 😄

[hardy tinsel]

what no, i will literally stay up as late as you are currently awake.

[lean fable]

Did you get permission to stay up this late?

[hardy tinsel]

😾

[lean fable]

Today I get a new mouse, will be nice so I can get back to Valheim related stuff.

[hardy tinsel]

i gave myself permission to yes

[lean fable]

Ok that's good.

I love Valheim

[hardy tinsel]

its almost my most played on steam now

[lean fable]

Very nice, can't wait for more updates and the future.

[hardy tinsel]

i too cannot wait for the future, even if i tried, it came while writing this message.

[lean fable]

Did you have an accident?

[hardy tinsel]

no but time sure passed and the future came

[lean fable]

Future cannot come though!

Like if future comes it's no longer the future so how can it come?

[hardy tinsel]

its the future of me in the past

[lean fable]

Time is scary

[hardy tinsel]

observing the fact that me in the past is now at this future point means that no matter what i said did or thought it was futile as i could not simply wait to let it happen it just did anyways

🥴

[lean fable]

But the future never came!!

[hardy tinsel]

says who, it sure did, and more continues to arrive.

[lean fable]

No we live in the present and only present.

I don't know, time is scary.

[hardy tinsel]

Yeah now it is, and every second that it takes to write this message out is a new present cuz the future came and put that present in the past.

[lean fable]

Imagine if each individual had their own time.

Like in MMOs, each person had their own instance haha.

I miss MMOs.

[hardy tinsel]

they still exist, i havent tried one before...except for idleon

[lean fable]

One day there will be a Valheim MMO I'm sure.

[hardy tinsel]

oh i just completely underestimated the length of this continent of plains and now have a 2 day walk back home.....

[lean fable]

You can eat cloudberries

[hardy tinsel]

yeahhh

[storm anchor]

If there was an Ashlands polearm it probably would have pierce damage only plus the +10 Lightning for Iolite version and +10 Poison for Jade version.

Himminafl benefits from its partial Lightning damage it has so all of its damage isn't resisted against Charred and Morgen. It fares pretty well in Ashlands by my experience, also Morgen are weak against Lightning.

Plus, if there were Flametal polearms with all gem variations the Iolite version would be too OP with the secondary attack hitting multiple enemies at once, having more chances to proc the chain lightning.

[untold lodge]

Sitting at a campfire in a now abandoned goblin camp waiting for the sun to rise once more is so serene. Besides going berserk and beating filings into the dirt with my hammer, Valheim has its moments of peace that I really enjoy that other games don't give

[proud hornet]

Am I the only one who is attracted to yagluth

[hardy tinsel]

probably, i don't think i'm the only one attracted to moder though 😎

[smoky quarry]

At times valheim is glorious combat.

At other times, it's reskinned stardew valley.

Both are good 🤣

[untold lodge]

I haven't gotten too much into Stardew, might with my wifey though. I just spent an hour on a conquest in the plains looking for totems. Now I'm back at my home making mead and planting onions in my farmers fit and chilling 😂

[flint bloom]

Might as well play the whole game as a pacifist then 😄

[untold lodge]

What are you going to eat then?

I just took on yagulth by myself and won. Without dying once 😎 (at least until the end o didn't expect him to detonate like a nuke. But I still killed him first 😂)

[hardy tinsel]

I kill trolls until i get full troll armor and enough trophies for bait, then i stop, i kill deer and boar until i have a chest full of each of their resources, i kill wolves until i have wolf armour and mountain equipment and a chest of meat, and so on and so forth...

still kill every greydwarf, draugr, leech, ooze, deathsquito, charred etc.

Morgen gjall.

[proven dagger]

Noon gjall.

[shy meteor]

Dang im personally crashing been up for 42 hours again lol... Morning to all you early risers though

[proven dagger]

Go to bed. Missing sleep is no bueno, speaking from experience, I've got dsps because of lack of sleep caused by the kids and you certainly don't want that.

[dense kraken]

Hello, what does this mean? You no longer gain cooking skill by trying to use a full cooking station

[proven dagger]

That means that there was an exploit before, if you loaded up an oven and kept using the oven while it was full you kept gaining experience in cooking.
Now that doesn't work anymore and you only get cooking exp when putting things in, don't know if you get exp with taking things out.

[dense kraken]

Oh , thank you

[modest moth]

You do

[north shadow]

they should make it so you only get exp when taking out the food before it turns to coal

[modest moth]

That's how it works already

That's why I said "you do"

[north shadow]

also someone complained about getting free items when crafting. apparently that was unintented and is now patched

[north shadow]

actually i take it back. you have to learn from mistakes 😄

[modest moth]

And I wish they gave something beneficial as compensation.

It makes sense that they would not give compensation on something that's clearly a glitch but still

[alpine vector]

Am I trippin or is the suggestion channel gone?

[north shadow]

trippin' im afraid my viking friend 😄 #suggestions

[scenic wing]

Looks like you’re not allowed to access that channel, look at your roles

[umbral fog]

You have a role "no suggestions" did you do something bad there?

[north shadow]

oh wow

[alpine vector]

No, I made 2 suggestions that was received rather well...

[scenic wing]

On Santa’s naughty list 👀

Maybe reach out to modmail? Ask for some clarification?

[alpine vector]

One of my suggestions was also removed cuz I couldn't find it the next day... But I don't think I broke any of the guidelines

[scenic wing]

What was the suggestion?

Last message you sent in the discussions channel was not long ago 🤔

[alpine vector]

I wrote something like this " I enjoy the new changes made to farming. I hope to see something to plant seeds with more efficiently in the future"

Which was the one that got removed btw

[umbral fog]

Well that is not really a suggestion, so thats probably why it was removed

[alpine vector]

I don't have access to discussions either so

[scenic wing]

Looks like you made a suggestion about something regarding key binding, also got removed.

[alpine vector]

Yeah

[scenic wing]

I’m guessing by the way, based on the context I’m finding haha

[alpine vector]

Yeah it's correct

[scenic wing]

Did you get in a heated argument or discussion?

[alpine vector]

No, and if I was then it's a long time ago.

Some of the mods have beef with me?

[umbral fog]

Not likely, too many people here for that, if you are not regularly involved in something mods have to deal with that is

[scenic wing]

Best bet is probably just to reach out to modmail

#suggestions message
@alpine vector You can use the bind command to bind other commands to a key press

This is the last message I can find that reference a suggestion of yours it seems.

[alpine vector]

Yeah I only responded with "Yeah, I just want something more accesible"

[scenic wing]

Yeah, saw that... I have no idea my friend!

[umbral fog]

Just reach out to madmail modmail 🙂 they will most likely tell you why you cant comment anymore

[scenic wing]

Madmail

[umbral fog]

did you mean foul creoture?

well my thumbs are so fat, when i lift my hands i get the message "you are carrying too much"

[hardy tinsel]

i seem to have ran out of ratatouille potions

[umbral fog]

Afaik there are only squirrel potions in the game 🤔 no rat ones

[radiant heath]

I got a job interview today, fingers crossed

[winged imp]

I demand the ability to wolf react to the new patch note post

[north shadow]

speaking of that patch note, i salute the artist, damn fine work 🫡

[next plover]

anyone having problem with their TAB key (inventory) and e key (use). i can't get any to work both mod and otherwise

[umbral fog]

The mods might be the issue...

[umbral fog]

Vanilla?

[next plover]

yes

[umbral fog]

If you are playing vanilla why mention mods?

[next plover]

i tried mod and it didn't work so i tried vanilla and still won't work

[umbral fog]

Try to remove/dissable all mods and verify files 🙂

ok thanks, didn't think about that.

[umbral fog]

The animated trailers are simply AMAZING 😄

[fathom peak]

Got my Valheim calendar! Pretty cool. Love the art.

[scenic wing]

The guy wearing the eitr weave set with the wolf cape- god DAMN that looks fantastic!

[tardy vale]

full on wolf set + ashen cape 👀

[eager granite]

Is there new music in the game?
When was that added?

[umbral fog]

With ashlands there was new music added i believe

[eager granite]

I ment in the meadows for exampel at a ruined house with a bee in there. Recognized it today the first time.

[frosty walrus]

Ruined houses have had their own music since before I started playing

[heady torrent]

What do you guys do with your shipping dock? I’m about to enter the plains for tar and want to make a nice porthouse/smithhouse for when I get back with a large haul of metal.. the issue is the swells on the ocean sometimes get absurdly high. Even putting the stone up a bit higher than the normal ocean level.. the swells get so high sometimes…

[lean fable]

the ruined house music was added in the mistlands update

[little veldt]

what i did was a dig a port far into the beach. if you're far enough inland, the water doesn't rise and fall like it does on the ocean

[tired harness]

Accept the water will go above it sometimes and make it out of materials that don't care about water.

[heady torrent]

That’s kind of what I was expecting. Kind of a bummer. Would be cool if you could build a retaining wall to help the waves, like IRL lakes and oceans have a man made rock wall or something to help break the wake of passing boats, windy seas..

[tired harness]

🤷‍♂️

-# Would be cool if you needed retaining walls because they spent 2 more years completely re-writing the code to make an entire moon's worth of water dynamic and realistic so that only supercomputers could run the game.

[scenic imp]

I mean..yeah. From our perspective it would, because it wouldn't really be instead of anything else. They don't plan to continue updating once they are done, so any improvement is free value we otherwise wouldn't have gotten. No matter how many years it takes.

Not the making it unrunable part, but you get what I'm saying.

Personally I would also gladly have skipped two biomes for more refinement, but that might be a me thing.

[marsh sentinel]

Not completing the game wasn't an option.

[scenic imp]

In practice it would probably have meant offsetting mistlands to where the outer biomes are currently.

[marsh sentinel]

Would it?

[scenic imp]

Idk, it's too hypothetical

[marsh sentinel]

For someone who isn't a dev you seem to have a lot of inside information.

[scenic imp]

I have inside information about the scenario I made up, yes. I am the sovereign undisputed source.

[marsh sentinel]

Good good, just checking you didn't that was remotely how things worked.

[hardy tinsel]

hi derek

[scenic wing]

@tardy vale What other games have you worked on besides Valheim?

[tardy vale]

depends on what you mean by working on

as hired developer or volonteer?

[scenic wing]

Hmm both? 😁

[tardy vale]

as hired. this is my first

as volonteer. the list is probably 300+ 🤔

[scenic wing]

Oh wow, that’s a lot more than I expected. Very cool, thanks for answering!

[vivid field]

300?

[tardy vale]

yes

I started to do volonteer playtesting / QA stuff when I was very young

playstation sent me CD's to try to find issues within the games

[vivid field]

ah, that explains a bit, still seems very high though

[tardy vale]

and when I got my first PC. I usually found myself trying to break games or find wierd stuff (mostly for fun)

[tardy vale]

I was like 8-9 year old when I started and I turned 41 this year... so....

[tired harness]

Smiffe worked on Zack Snyder's 300, confirmed 😛

[tardy vale]

bigger titles like World of warcraft pre-alpha, World of tanks pre-alpha, World of warships (back when it was called world of battleships), as a few

[tired harness]

Remember the good days when Demo Disks were a thing and you could try games before buying them?

[tardy vale]

yeah. but I got them for free

😄

[tired harness]

There used to be a free disk in magazines like GameInformer and such that had multiple demos on it.

[tardy vale]

we use to have like 39 Sek magazines you could buy with demo's

both for PC, and Playstation

[tired harness]

I 100% read "sek" as a different word on the first pass.

[tardy vale]

oh?

SEK = Swedish One Crown

basicly 1/10 of a USD

[tired harness]

Yeah, like you had 39 lewd magazines.

[vivid field]

those cost 69 Sek

[tired harness]

So a dime? 🙂

[tardy vale]

not expensive 😄

[scenic imp]

Where would one have to live to even have access to such a variety at that time?

[hoary jay]

looks like a good day to start on that Deep North eh? 😆

[tired harness]

30 years ago?
Most airports.

[late salmon]

why do my worlds keep getting erased? my friend and I almost had the game beat and now it's gone

[tired harness]

How do you beat a game that doesn't have an ending?

[hoary jay]

you get bored

[late salmon]

okay we almost had all the boses gone

[hoary jay]

private server?

[frosty walrus]

The ending when the game is complete will involve sacrificing all the bosses, so right now beating the game means sacrificing every boss we have

[marsh sentinel]

Being bored doesn't mean you've beaten the game though

[late salmon]

yeah it was under my account

[hoary jay]

if you were hosting the game in your PC it should be there unless it got erased

if it was on a public server, those get reset

[late salmon]

yeah it's not showing anywhere and i didn't erase it

[tardy vale]

https://tenor.com/view/you-shouldnt-joke-about-that-stan-marsh-south-park-casa-bonita-s7e11-gif-22110685

[marsh sentinel]

I wasn't joking? It's true.

[hoary jay]

strange... it's usually just a regular file

[scenic imp]

But 39 of them? Maybe I was interpreting wrong. I didn't think of it like 39 issues. I though of it like 39 different publications.

Same company maybe, but separate products which could be individually subscribed to.

[late salmon]

I can see them in previous but when i try to connect it says failed to connect

[vivid field]

that means you're not hosting the game; it's not on your pc

[vivid field]

you have to ask them to host their world again

[lean fable]

Wrong chat but hi

[hoary jay]

yup, if you were hosting the game it wouldn't need to connect

my guess is that you were playing on a public server and those get reset... if you want your own server that doesn't reset you need to rent it, or host it in your computer, or your friend's

[late salmon]

i figured it out

i plan on xbox gamepass and steam and my files were saved on my xbox cloud not my steam cloud

[tardy vale]

sometimes there are files left on your PC (if you played on PC) you can move to make it work

[hardy tinsel]

hi

[rustic tree]

Yo

[scenic wing]

Hello fellow dog 🐕

[rustic tree]

I get a question, My stuff in valheim is trapped cuz there are two mosquitos there camping it, How do I get rid of them, also I'm on a diff island

How can I get my stuff back

[scenic wing]

Where are you at in progression? What’s your food/gear?

[rustic tree]

It's all bronze

I'm very new to the game and rn that's the best material Ik of

[craggy holly]

Use old leftover gear, make new boat and recover, if scared ask someone to help you maybe even the Body Recovery Squad

[rustic tree]

I made 12 boats and died each time

[scenic wing]

Ah, gotcha. Best bet is probably to run in and out as fast as you can.

[rustic tree]

I'm out of left over gear

[rustic tree]

damn

So there's no mosquito repellant or smth

[little veldt]

just run in, grab stuff, run out. dodge when the squito attacks. eat food before you try

[scenic wing]

Bronze gear and below won’t help much anyways. Could try shooting them with a bow.

[craggy holly]

You can ask here if someone can help and also consider making a post in #1024264966712340510 asking if some strong viking can help you out asap

[scenic wing]

There is, but it sounds like you can’t obtain it quite yet

[rustic tree]

damn

aight thanks y'all

Also, is there a way to load up previous saves?

[craggy holly]

yes there normally is backups depends how long ago you died etc (I could help recover in like 4h maybe but not rn)

[rustic tree]

Aight thanks dog

Does your shit despawn after a while bc my shit has been over there for close to a week and a half now

[idle thicket]

I hope BioWare get’s shut down

[tired harness]

Uh.... random?

And moving on to next topic, because just... no. Not even entertaining that conversation.

[modest moth]

No

[rustic tree]

Okay thank you

[thin bear]

Any tips on fixing graphics?

[rustic tree]

I GOT MY STUFF OMG

[craggy holly]

maybe in a few hours me or someone can help recover it if its been soo long, can let you know when I m home but dont know when you have to go to bed

[craggy holly]

you need to find a certain trader to make deathsquuito repellent

[rustic tree]

Sweet, thanks

I killed 2 deathsquitos with a bow and arrow

[craggy holly]

perfect

don't stay long in plains, its the 5th biome and you're not ready for it yet in bronze

[rustic tree]

Yeah I ran

[rustic tree]

Ik of a trader, Idk he is the one you're talking about

[craggy holly]

there is 3 traders, can spoil a bit more if you want

[rustic tree]

Wym? Spoil?

[craggy holly]

Depends if you want me to tell you more about the traders or if you want to enjoy finding it out yourself

[rustic tree]

Ohhh

I think for now I'll find it about by myself, thanks though

[craggy holly]

Yeah don't want to ruin the finding new things in the game, is a very fun thing you can only experience once. I have now played the game start to finish about 14 times

[rustic tree]

That's so fire

Is bronze good enough to defeat the elder?

[craggy holly]

Yes i normally use troll armour

[rustic tree]

Ohhh okay thanks

I do have 1 spoiler question that I can't figure out, when the elders alter says ''Kill their young'', who's young?

The greydwarves?

[tired harness]

I think it specifically says "Burn" but the riddle of it is you're talking about the Elder, who is a giant tree.
What do all trees start as?
And what's another word for elder/old?

What you need is: ||Ancient Seeds||
<-- do not click if you don't want it spoiled.

[rustic tree]

Okay

[craggy holly]

It is on altars always related to the offering you need to make to summon the boss

[rustic tree]

Sapplings?

[craggy holly]

which was deer trophies for Eikthyr

[tired harness]

Younger.

[rustic tree]

Ohhh

[rustic tree]

Ohhh is it those special seeds?

[tired harness]

🔔

[rustic tree]

Sweet, thanks y'all

[craggy holly]

yeah those don't have any other use other than summoning the elder

works very similar to how you summoned Eikthyr, just different altar in a different biome and different item for summoning

[rustic tree]

Thanks dog

[modest moth]

What graphics?

[thin bear]

Valheim graphics lol

[modest moth]

...

Fix how?

[craggy holly]

most graphics issues I have heard about are either hardware issues or #mods-issues , whats wrong?

[thin bear]

My girlfriend has a hard time playing the game, says the blockiness hurts her head

[modest moth]

That's the game's chosen artstyle. You don't "fix" that

[thin bear]

Rip

Thanks for the info tho

[craggy holly]

this is not the right channel to discuss but google on how to mod valheim and "Willybach's HD Valheim" if you want and have a look if that might be good enough for her, Most people here love the artstyle though and it was chosen to be like this by the devs on purpose

[thin bear]

What's the right channel?

Sorry replied the wrong person lol

[craggy holly]

#mods-discussion

[thin bear]

Thanks

[craggy holly]

I was going to suggest replacing gf that doesn't like the Valheim graphics and art style but worried I'd get in trouble 😏

[zealous anchor]

what like buy a new one?
pretty sure thats illegal

[craggy holly]

no just exploring the map until you can tame a new one

[zealous anchor]

thanks to a new movement (ill not say what)
that should be easier now and less painfull
and less dangerous to your mental health and social life

[proven dagger]

Tea it is.

[tired harness]

Tea is best!

[tardy vale]

Debatable

[tired harness]

That's a negative, Smiffe-rider. Tea clearly has the superiority.

[tardy vale]

it goes like this

1. Hot choclate
2. Coffee <-> Tea
3. beer
4. water

[tired harness]

NO MEAD?

[rigid basin]

I'd say hot chocolate, coffee, then tea, beer, water

[tardy vale]

mead isn't a casual thing to drink 🤔

[tired harness]

Tell that to my Viking...

• Cocoa of the High Temperature
• Tea
• All other drinks

[rigid basin]

I need coffee cos tea doesn't get me close enough to humming bird level BPMs. Need me that French pressed light coffee for that. Tea tastes better in some cases though I will admit.

[tired harness]

Why are you trying to dangerously elevate your heartrate?

[rigid basin]

<-extreme caffeine addict. I consume 160mg in the morning and another 160mg in the evening. That's reduced from half the intake a year ago. It's been a slow ride back to normalcy 😕

[proven dagger]

The beers I drink aren't a casual drink to drink either.

[tardy vale]

oh?

we usually drink 2.7% beers here to lunch / dinner

[hardy tinsel]

4.2%

ohhh man i just left it outside in the cold and its the best thing ever

[proven dagger]

Yeah that isn't something you find easily in Belgium, the lightest I know of that is readily available that has some alcohol content is 4.6%
I usually drink 8%-12% beers though.

[hearty chasm]

Do people still use or is valheim plus still being updated or just a collection of addons?

[umbral fog]

Probs a question for #mods-discussion 😄

[tired harness]

#mods-discussion

[lean fable]

What are mods.

[tardy vale]

[hardy tinsel]

8-12% is a bit strong isn't it?

[tardy vale]

the thing before the mail

[hardy tinsel]

i like lighter, and more of them..

[umbral fog]

Those are quite strong beers 🤔 but then again if you are not drinking them all the time... 😄

[flint bloom]

iiii haddd a black fly long island iced tea once that was 7% and i was like "woah"

i mean i did drink it faster because it tasted so good because sweet tooth 🙂‍↕️

[proven dagger]

On the stronger side, yeah.
Though they are dark / brown beers and aren't for chugging they are for enjoying.

[tired harness]

I thought chain came before mail 😏

[cold mortar]

And man came after mail

[lean fable]

I'm waiting for a delivery that will happen today and tomorrow.

[tired harness]

No no, man comes after milk!

[proven dagger]

If I drink beer it is one of those but i seldomly drink beer, if I'm grilling I'll have either a corona or a Hoegaarden and I'll have one of the others during dinner but if i drink it is only in the weekends.

[cold mortar]

No man ever got milk it's a lieeee

[hardy tinsel]

my tolerance was enough to chug about 3 corona before getting drunk, then i chugged the other 3, that was a fun night, good thing i'm a happy drunk, i was a real silly ass mf and had to be babysat as we were hanging out 🥴

[proven dagger]

It can also come after.

[hardy tinsel]

thats like, some kinda joke probably..

[proven dagger]

My tolerance before I met my wife was aperitiv before dinner, 2 glasses of wine during dinner, degustif after dinner, 2-3 beers during the evening so 6 to 7 measures of alcohol in a span of 4-6 hours and I would be slightly buzzed.
Now I drink one or 2 in the same time span and feel the same or a harder buzz than before.

[proven dagger]

A mailchain does exist.

[hardy tinsel]

nahh about coming after 🗣️

[hardy tinsel]

i still don't like wine

[proven dagger]

As long as both get there does it matter?

I also dont like it very much, i had ONE so far that i actually though was tasty (tho i dont count mulled wine into this, that is really nice when its cold 😄 )

[craggy holly]

sounds about right

Maybe 3020 if we're lucky

[soft estuary]

I could see that happening.

[willow goblet]

1.0, 'now with more potions and elixirs'

[willow jetty]

I thought the developers said there might be more stuff added like sand biome or rainforest thing, not that the deep north would be the last one

[frosty walrus]

It's always been planned that deep north will be the final biome

[scenic wing]

Don’t think they’ve mentioned that 🤔

[willow jetty]

Grimmcore D ioday- 3:09 PM well.I stillwant to do.. Sandheim.. Underheim... Nightmares (dream dungeons.). Elite locations..ildlife update.. ingame board game with pieces you collect. Weapon overhau.. Bloodmoon and moon phases... and much much more. 002

Idk where to share the screenshot, but I'm just quoting what was said. So I was curious if that means those ideas are scrapped or what

[north shadow]

just smiffe casually adding a link

"But when the pea soup and the pancakes are paired together, your first reaction might just be… why?" you sir, are correct

you don't eat those together on the same plate ofc 😄

and pancakes use to be a desert in sweden

[north shadow]

they are here as well usually

[tardy vale]

look at it

[north shadow]

yes i saw that on the page, the pancakes look so unbelievably fluffy

[scenic wing]

Oh wow, I missed Grimms check-in months ago, didn’t even know about it haha

[north shadow]

over here pancakes are more like crepes, so rather flat, but we put some jam, or hazelnut cream or what have you on them, and then make it a roll, top it with some powdered sugar (rarely whipped cream) and we good to go

[vivid field]

you can make crepes without going to france though

[true pendant]

They're fine but they are not the same

[vivid field]

just the name, but you can call them sparkling pancakes which imo is a pretty solid name for 'em

[scenic wing]

Just saying, if we get a way to get milk in the deep north… we could see pancakes, egg nog, cheese (charcuterie board lol) and probably some other stuff I can’t think of at the moment lol

[gaunt ingot]

goats produce milk

eew no

cows are where its at

what challenge when u can drive them to the beach

waste of time more then challenge

[scenic wing]

That’s the challenge, pulling/luring them to the beach 🏖️

like its hard to do

[drowsy imp]

The challenge is still getting the scales in open ocean by jumping on their heads as they die

[pulsar hawk]

that is a challenge

other is just bullshit

Blueberry pancakes 🤔

[cyan creek]

Never gived the last hit with a sword, but one day i hope i will success

[gaunt ingot]

other than the milk (which, again, they already made one implied substitute for it in eyescream already) we already have all the ingredient for the blueberry pancackes

(barley/bread dough & the blueberries)

Bacon don't

[scenic wing]

Probably gonna get some hate for this…

Bacon is good, but it’s definitely not amazing or anything 😅 I love blts though, I will admit. But bacon on its own and oftentimes even as an ingredient, is just ‘ok’

Oh LOL I was way off, and now I feel a little silly

[vivid field]

the popularity of the mercator projection doesn't really help

nothing wrong with spreading awareness, but sometimes you just gotta gently take the spider outside, instead of screaming and blindly running away and panicking

or heck, learn to live with the spider.

remember kids: your birthday is 1/1/1900 and don't let anyone tell you otherwise

[cyan creek]

Oh no you are not. Just that in your messages you seemed to not be fully aware youself (which now is clearly wrong : you are as aware as we all are). Nothing wrong, I personaly agree with your way. This is just important to consider peoples know a bit what they say. If you raise a warning and they tell you its ok, that mean they know what they are doing.

I typically just post my full address

[marsh sentinel]

What suggests to you that we couldn't read what you said?

[hardy tinsel]

oh thats fine the lad i was talking to didn't share nearly as much as i did

[vivid field]

i've already proven what's possible
I don't know, you tell me. tell me where obi-ron is to a more specific degree than he already mentioned explicitly

[tardy vale]

Hm..? 🤔

[hardy tinsel]

hiiiiiii smiffe

[tardy vale]

there is a reason why we have rules against certain topics in our discord

[hardy tinsel]

I don't like politics so that reduces alot of trouble for me.

[marsh sentinel]

Who posted a political opinion exactly? There's a lot of conjecture happening with no substance.

[vivid field]

and even then delivery drivers sometimes miss my house 😢

[hardy tinsel]

yeahhh i know people will give me like pre-school instructions to their house for some odd job and i'll end up at the neighbours on the other end of the forest.

[zenith sage]

the only thing I'd be afraid of is smiffe burning my house down if i post about horses in the suggestions channel

[hardy tinsel]

you might deserve it tbh..

Happened to me a couple weeks ago. Knocked on my buddies neighbors house across the street

[tardy vale]

no bears. no horses 😄

[hardy tinsel]

no horses. bears. yes this is the way.

[vivid field]

you didn't say no cats

what's this, kittens confirmed next update?

[tardy vale]

no cats, dogs, big mackarils, horses, cows, moose

[hardy tinsel]

what about american eagles

[vivid field]

'MURICA

[tardy vale]

don't make me post the video mate

@wide tinsel please drop the topic

[hardy tinsel]

Mmm

[marsh sentinel]

No-one made you do anything. We made no suggestion of being interested.

[tardy vale]

so.. how was your day?

[zenith sage]

hmmm no mention of aquatic felines, dogfish, or seahorses... ocean update here we come

[tardy vale]

[fast trout]

I chuckled about the inclusion of mackerel in that list.

[tardy vale]

no irl animals / creatures / living things added D:

[zenith sage]

no one else is talking about it...

[vivid field]

alright, I'll go dig up my D&D Monster Manual... 😛

[zenith sage]

yea, I see people trying to change the topic 😹

[hardy tinsel]

basically just woke up

[vivid field]

no, we've just moved on to other topics

[tardy vale]

that's not a warning. that's me trying to break up a discussion that is leading into rule break territory eventually

just like other users tried to also change topic before things steer into uncomfortable topics

[hardy tinsel]

a passion of mine is attempting to be chill

[fast trout]

Speaking of being chill...snow tonight!

9. Do not have political discussions or controversial topics, as this server is not the place. Messages in this category may be deleted, no matter how serious or joking their intent.

White supremasists are very much into this topic very very soon

[hardy tinsel]

i think dialogue works a bit differently online unless you're in dms, in bigger servers i am used to being ignored.

[tardy vale]

Please ignore derek

hes a nice person, but he get himself (and sometimes others) into trouble

and btw. varnings are never public

[hardy tinsel]

i'm a nice person end of sentence 🧡

[vivid field]

pretty sure derek wasn't the one to start down that road...

[tardy vale]

our discord server should perhaps come with a varning

"please ignore the Derek in chat"

[vivid field]

yeah, he was responding to you, who brought up the topic to begin with

[drowsy imp]

I feel uncomfortable responding to this, because I'm not a therapist. But, it might be a good idea to see one if that's the case. (also because this is a videogame discord public server)

[hardy tinsel]

I'm gonna be honest about something, This server is nice, Some people are slightly annoying or silly, Thats about the end of it, I remain in some other servers with some miserable toxic company, Nothing happening here is really a big deal.

[vivid field]

I'm just trying to keep it light-hearted 🙂 lord knows IRL isn't

[hardy tinsel]

i love writing but not typing as much

[vivid field]

oh man its the opposite for me

[hardy tinsel]

im just a lazy blob

🟠

[vivid field]

I can type 100s of words a minute; whereas my handwriting is lucky to get double digits if its anywhere near legible

[hardy tinsel]

i dont mean writing as in drawing, i have zero handwriting ability, i meant typing out lore and worldbuilding.

[vivid field]

worldbuilding's cool, but yeah I have a hard time writing stuff down. mostly stays in my head and gets continually refined right before sleep :/

[hardy tinsel]

I have the most basic bitch aspirations, I am writing a fantasy graphic novel with dragons and knights and wizards and shit 🤩

i don't have any of the graphic novel aspects yet because i cant art

[vivid field]

I've played around with the idea of running a D&D campaign in a similar manner before. But aside from large differences in writing ability and creativeness, people like to be their own protagonists, so it's hard to create any sort of meaningful stakes & conflict

[vivid field]

I feel your pain. I have done some art before, but it takes forever and an overabundance of effort -- because it turns out that creating cool stuff isn't easy when you have aphantasia

[hardy tinsel]

i have played d&d, i'm kinda stupid so i can't be a dm.

[tired harness]

Man can capitalize The Eternal Hallow, but leaves every single i lowercase... 😭😭

[hardy tinsel]

good

[drowsy imp]

That shows humility, sev

[tired harness]

🤔

[drowsy imp]

[hardy tinsel]

i have this weird conglomerate of western and eastern media in what i want to depict, totally taking place in a western fantasy setting but with alot of anime inspiration...later on battles against gods will be reaaal fucking dragon ball-y 🥴

i discovered heroforge, if anyone has heard of that or used it.

i had more fun making little minis of different gods to make rudimentary concepts of their designs than i did doing any actual writing, also worldbuilding of course, like bilbo baggins i do love maps..

[shy meteor]

i mean its not like it isnt a litany of information about a cool passion good luck to ya Jam

[hardy tinsel]

i made somewhere in the range of 30 gods with lore and basic designs...

😩

[shy meteor]

"Hard Magic" Huh sounds like fun...

[hardy tinsel]

I think one of the main factors about my world is that ultimate good is the ultimate power, and the only reason evil exists is for novelty.

[tired harness]

Hard Magic?

Winguardium LeviosAAAAAAA
(I feel very few people will get this reference.)

[shy meteor]

Only thing worse than hard magic is blood bending... 😉

[hardy tinsel]

At the point where i am the worldbuilding almost taking priority over the story i might consider this to be more like a video game world i've conjured up.

i just....want to depict fucking everything and as much as possible and i can't really do that in any book or story that i can easily take on

[shy meteor]

Long as its not h tai related im sure it will be amazing

[hardy tinsel]

i have like multiple different races of humans, elves, orcs, beastfolk, generations of gods.

[hardy tinsel]

and i thought i was the only one with my mind in the gutter.

[drowsy imp]

Ahem

[hardy tinsel]

it wasn't me

🐦

i made like a flappy bird game once 👽

[vivid field]

might be going about things backwards then? audience is typically the last step, no?

[hardy tinsel]

ahh i'm gonna be honest i personally don't care at all about an audience for what i have to do, I'm going to depict whatever i want to and as long as the end result is something cool then i am overjoyed that i atleast got to depict my own creations.

[vivid field]

LOTR started off as a bedtime story to his kid

as long as its something you like, there will prolly be other people who think so as well

if it's executed well*

[hardy tinsel]

I know if i get even a slightest audience i'm going to have people tell me "you should've done this at this point in the story" and i'm generally probably gonna tell them to fuck off 🫢

[rare osprey]

Anyone know if coal lit fires are affected by rain?

[shy meteor]

they go poof only thing rain proof is bonfire i think

[hardy tinsel]

well what are we talking about here, a product or a passion.

[vivid field]

an idea and it's execution are two very different things

[hardy tinsel]

i'm not making any product, if it benefits me monetarily then good, if not then i don't care that wasn't the point of it.

My brain is like pent up, I have to depict things in a creative manner.

its a bit more balanced between the too at this point

[vivid field]

they've gone back on a few things they said they wouldn't (eg. portals)

[hardy tinsel]

I'm not banking my survival and success on my writing and art, that is not the field of employment i am interested in.

The disparity between what i want to do and the work i want to do is that i am an artist but next year i'm probably going to logging camp

lad or lass i don't know how to refer to you 🧐

[vivid field]

60 hours a week is two full time jobs. that ain't healthy

[hardy tinsel]

thats fun

if you're working alot and you can view it in a positive manner then good...its just that i was never able to because i hate work ✨

i want a farm

[frosty walrus]

You gotta kill Eikthyr first, and make some bronze

[tired harness]

Or find a friendly Troll.

[hardy tinsel]

wow

yup

[shy meteor]

Think ive only killed Eikthyr twice and once was just for fun...

[vivid field]

I've thought about this before, but figure I'll start off with a garden first. animals would be nice, but they're a huge pile of responsibility -- which is opposite of my goal of work less, earn more

[hardy tinsel]

i like a rustic lifestyle for the sake of being more self-reliant, there are shortages of water, food, electricity and heat in the town/region/province i live in, if relying on the infrastructure, and i had not being independent.

[hardy tinsel]

Farm = plants, Ranch = animals, Rudimentarily.

ranchers do hay aswell, farmers sometimes have animals, not as prioritised as the larger patches of fruits and vegetables.

I have done a bit of both, I love animals but i don't want that responsibility, I really like working with plants, They don't bitch at you as much as animals or humans 🗣️

i haven't watched a ton of videos yet, i am going to make a garden in the spring atleast.

[vivid field]

I'm growing some grocery store veggies right now -- my scallions/spring onions are doing really well
(btw grocery store veggies = just planting what you buy from the grocery store already -- two birds one stone)

[hardy tinsel]

It is the most whimsical thing ever but the bog witch update adding farming and me making little gardens for everything seriously pushed me to want to start in the spring 🐦

i want carrots and turnips and onions 🥶

[vivid field]

I want lettuce, but it doesn't grow well here 😦

been thinking of setting up hydroponics or something in the garage

[hardy tinsel]

i want quite alot more, tomatoes, potatoes, herbs..

things generally can grow here period, yes pumpkins, already have raspberries, currants, apples & plums on my parents property which yes i live on.

[vivid field]

yep, and add peppers to the list; can't forget them. the literal spice of life

[hardy tinsel]

I already don't have an education so that whole realm is a mess....my work experience and know-how is at the moment just from experience alone 😅...but i do like studying in some manner, i really like old-fashioned ways of doing things....and really i just wanna learn by doing it.

I want to be able to feed myself, I like plants, I like nature, It seems typical that if doing that there would be a surplus of produce that might just go to rot if it isn't sold.

and i hope you can appreciate that my smaller responses to all that are not out of lack of attention or anything i'm just very laconic and simple.

i don't really want it to be big, my 'city' bella coola is like 3000 people, maybe that.

[vivid field]

3k pop is like a town iirc

maybe a village

[hardy tinsel]

a quote on quote 'small town' that neighbours us is like 10k people

i don't have like andrew tate aspirations, the bar that i have set is that i can live freely and without worry.

I have always existed in poverty, My only goal is to not have to anymore.

[vivid field]

lol... "quote...unquote" doesn't need to be typed when you've got the actual quote marks right there

[hardy tinsel]

i dont feel like it

[vivid field]

fair enough

[marsh sentinel]

Isn't that just what he said?

[hardy tinsel]

seriously do not try and make my silly ass speak properly 🥴

half of it is on purpose

40% of it i dont care enough to remember

hiyaaa~

I picture you entering chat with a karate chop, every time you say it like that.

[lean fable]

spoken very softly~

[fast trout]

*a very small karate chop.

[tired harness]

That's what the ~ is.

A very smol karate chop.~

Slicing sideways through the air~

[hardy tinsel]

i have the biggest karate chops nobodies ever seen karate chops this big 🎺

[rugged stag]

That just gives me anime hiyaa karate chop

ofc in a soft voice

[lean fable]

isn't the emphasis there usually on the first half

[tired harness]

~This would be chopping the first half

Whereas this is chopping after~

[rugged stag]

lost me at chopping

[outer shadow]

I kinda wish feasts did more

They're cool though

I like the ability to place food

[hardy tinsel]

i wish like one of them made moder befriendable so i could hug her

[outer shadow]

Crazy statement

[hardy tinsel]

i get that alot

[outer shadow]

Eh at least you didnt say bonemass or something

[hardy tinsel]

its just mommy moder, its the most reasonable.

(legit until theres more lore about her i still feel bad about that boss-fight)

[tired harness]

More.. how?

Gives stats over duration.
That is what food does in this game.

So... are you meaning you want more... what?
Or are you meaning you want something else out of the serving tray functionality?

[hardy tinsel]

+25 r - i - z - z (apparently banned word)

Surpised Smiffe hasn't put 🥚 in their name yet 😄

[cold mortar]

So smiffe is the one changing names ? I was wondering who would just randomly change a person's name...

[marsh sentinel]

It's not random.

[cold mortar]

...right.

I shall bear the egg with purpose.

[tardy vale]

not only no

all moderator s have the power to do so

[cold mortar]

I would assume so

[lean fable]

but most of us only change names if asked

(i'm not a moderator but helpers can do it too)

[cold mortar]

So is there a history to egg in here?

love is in the air

[lean fable]

-# anyway i upgraded my PC a lil a few days ago and then couldn't use my go-to monitor anymore until we got an adapter for it because it doesn't have an HDMI port, so i got that thing this morning, plug things around and then it selected my drawing tablet as display 1, which sucks because i don't wanna have that thing on all the time
-# simple, just go into windows settings, change which display is-- there is no windows setting for that
-# spent like half an hour messing around with that until it just...solved itself??? it still claims my drawing tablet is display 1, but the clock is showing on my dell monitor and windows finally open there again so success i guess??

[tired harness]

I stopped reading at i... 😛

[lean fable]

:> oh no wonder you never see me ramble

[tired harness]

😂 valid point.

[cold mortar]

That's interesting. You should be able to select main monitor in windows.

I done it in windows 10 and 11.

11 changes it a bit so it was a bit harder to find but it's still an option

[lean fable]

well i can't find it in display settings (windows 10)

[cold mortar]

And i suppose it doesn't show under monitor either?

[lean fable]

i'm a little stupid alright.

[cold mortar]

Lol

It's okay to be blind.

[lean fable]

wait what do you mean, clicking that reversed it again, huh??

[cold mortar]

...>.>

I'm curious what the machine spirit has against you.

[lean fable]

and the order still hasn't changed, oh i hate technology so much

[cold mortar]

Uh you can't click on two for example and make it one?

[lean fable]

nope

[cold mortar]

Also. Screen tablet? What one?

[lean fable]

wacom cintiq 16

[cold mortar]

Fuuuu

....it's on my wishlist ...

[lean fable]

that thing's probably like 10 years newer than my monitor

[cold mortar]

Hahahaha

[lean fable]

the size difference between the two's resolutions will never stop being funny to me considering my monitor is physically bigger

[cold mortar]

I'm using an ultra wide atm. It's pretty neat.

And two laptops.

[lean fable]

oooo~ another artist, sweet

[cold mortar]

I've been using the One by Wacom since 2019

[tired harness]

TWO LAPTOPS

People flexing how much money they have 😭

[cold mortar]

Nah man. My one laptop kinda ded. Probably CPU die. So I've nabbed my bf s laptop. Slightly better GPU. And definitely better CPU.

[lean fable]

same, a very basic screenless mini tablet that was definitely holding me back
i think it was only last christmas that i splurged and got this 1500€ one...or was it the christmas before?

[cold mortar]

But I still use mine for art just cuz I'm logged into clip studio.

[cold mortar]

My splurge was a 2700€ laptop in 2020

[lean fable]

yoooof

[cold mortar]

Yee.... Sad that it basically can't multitask at all

[lean fable]

i think that's more than i've spent on PC upgrades over the last 10 years

[cold mortar]

I moved a lot, so everything needs to fit in two suitcases a backpack and a laptop bag...

[lean fable]

yea understandable, i'm very stationary

[cold mortar]

Maybe one day I can get a stationary... Atm I'm eyeing a framework

[tired harness]

Go to FedEx Office and you can be stationery.
