vettnerk, do gaming w What are some games that "spin" failure states?

All of the Grand Theft Auto games have you respawn outside of a police station or a hospital.

Yet often you have to repeat the mission, and often said missions have concrete failing states (don't be spotted, don't miss the car, don't let x die) and less opportunity for branching from a failure.

bermuda,

I mean I guess that’s an answer but at least the ones I’ve played have you restart the mission and you lose cash upon leaving the hospital.

vettnerk,

Leaving the hospital with thousands of dollars gone is just US developers adding realism.

a_robot, do gaming w Are there still any solid, updated minecraft modpacks around?

A good one is vault hunters. Where it adds a rogue-like into the main gameplay loop of Minecraft, its a lot of fun.

massive props to VH, it’s an awesome modpack, though getting started can be brutal depending on how lucky you are with your seed.

The_Sasswagon,

Vault hunters is a blast, it’s almost a completely different game set inside Minecraft. I got playing it when they updated the early game and only just put it down for a bit to play baulders gate.
I especially like making farms for a materials that the mod asks for, even if it’s not necessary yet. Just infinite amounts of nearly everything one could want.

TableteKarcioji, do piracy w Separate qBittorent admin container?

You mean something like running qbittorrent-nox and connecting to it using web ui?

matey,

Yes! Is that possible?

@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yes, you use qBitTorrent-nox with the web UI. It’s built in.

matey,

I’m not looking to have them bundled. I want the management interface separate.

TableteKarcioji,

qBittorrent-nox is as separate as you can get. It can be run on the server without GUI. It also provides WebUI, that can be modified if you wish, but you don’t have to use it. Moreover, most (if not all) settings can be edited through the text file and torrents added using CLI.

qBittorrent, when Web-UI is enabled (doesn’t matter if it’s nox or not), provides and API too. IF you have a client you can connect and manage everything using it. However, the only clients I know are for android.

clmbmb,

He/she wants to have the web UI (the client) on a different vm/machine, as far as I understand, which is not possible at the moment with qbittorrent.

As others have said, the solution could be deluge or rtorrent.

matey,

Thank you. :) So the answer is that it’s not possible.

I’ll take a look at the other options you mention.

TableteKarcioji, (edited )

But that’s the literal point of WebUI of any program. To make it possible to connect and manage the program from any device from the remote machine. And there is a reason why most developers choose to use WebUI - you don’t have to create multiple cleants for every OS and every internet connected device has a web browser. In fact web browser can be considered the client in this scenario.

What could be the reason why anyone could be against WebUI? I can only think of one advantage of native client that has to be installed is that it would make of possible to associate torrent files and magnet links with it.

And lastly, if you would search for qbittorent remote client most likely in top 5 results you would find electorrent. I haven’t tried it but at least description claims that it can be used with qBittorrent.

Edit: heh it seems I managed to reply to my own comment.

Carefully.

nanometer, do piracy w Are SolidTorrents.to and Bitsearch.to down?
EthicalDogMeat, do games w Do you find the description Live Service Game off-putting?

I’m not a fan of it. I think live service games generally comes with battle passes, which are essentially preordering DLCs. DLCs that have not been announced, with no details and nothing else. They also often offer some exp bonus or in game items. I think this has an impact on how the game is balanced. The bonuses can’t be game breaking so they have to nerf the base game experience to make it “valuable”.

I think it can be done well if the base game is free. Dota 2 and csgo are good examples of it because the bonuses that come with battle passes are mostly cosmetic, and they help the support game development. If the base game is £60, then the company can fuck off. I prefer standalone games with expansion packs being released at a later time. Being able to play offline is also great, even though I am rarely without Internet access.

Really depends on the game. A linear story game is not going to be very long. Then there’s sandbox games where you can have hundreds to thousands of hours.

FippleStone,

That user name is fantastic

    I get what you are saying. I think it also depends on how the game is divided up. If it’s just one continuous romp with autosave points it can feel like it’s dragging on but if there’s clearcut levels and checkpoints I feel like it helps divide up a game into digestible chunks.

    I feel like that’s not really present with a lot of open world or sandbox games

    Euphoma, do gaming w Valve's next mystery gadget...

    It’s pretty likely that its the Deckard, because we know they’ve been working on that for years, even before the Steam Deck was announced. I don’t think that Valve has been working on any other hardware lately. It’ll be pretty hype if it actually is, though I kinda bought my Index last year so I’m not hyped about it being obselete.

    averyminya,

    To be fair, if you only bought it last year the headset already was outdated. Great refresh rate, ghastly resolution in comparison to the Vive/Pico/WMR headset. (It still looks fine, it’s just in comparison)

    That said, it comes down to reliability and the software you want. I got the Reverb G2 because of the display resolution, but I wanted the Index Knuckles because those are unparalleled. But I’m also dealing with WMR, which is nice for somethings (openXR) and very annoying for others (actually using MixedVR, the G2 headset and Index Knuckles).

    Also I’d be surprised if the next version just wasn’t compatible with the previous generation. So you may be able to just buy the deckard headset and you already have the rest. That’s what I’m hoping for, as I want a SteamVR headset with the resolution of my G2 :(

    Euphoma,

    Yeah I know it was outdated, but people were saying it was gonna be 7 years till the next headset, and the Index is the best headset for getting into basestations these days still. Pimax has really bad headsets in most aspects besides fov, and HTC hasn’t released a good headset in years.

    According to rumors the deckard should be compatible with basestations, so I should be able to get the headset standalone.

    In my opinion the Index resolution is as good as the quest 2 though so it wasn’t that bad in comparison to other headsets when I got it.

    There’s an Expedition going on for the next 6 weeks in NMS. It’s like a self-contained mega-questline. Start a new single player game and choose “Expedition”. They give you lots of upgrades along the way and you’ll see bases and messages from other players along the same path.
