2/13/2024 0 Comments System shock 2 turn music off![]() ![]() But in the end I’ll have to put aside my personal preferences and do whatever works best for Cogmind, for which there are a number of different options that don’t necessarily equate to a full-on “music music” OST. That I’d one day be all grown up with my own game that could have its own professional OST? My 7-year-old mind would be blown :P. So naturally I’d love to have music in Cogmind. On both the development side and among players, nowadays game music is afforded a much greater importance than it once had, and is more widely appreciated. :D To me music is a big part of the gaming experience as well, and I’ve always thought it accounts for much more of the experience than most people gave it credit for, though that public perception has certainly changed over the past 15 years. Yes, the 80’s, back when I’d record NES tracks on cassette tapes to play back later. I’m a huge fan of video game music, and have been since the 80’s. ![]() That said, these commercial roguelikes also have nowhere near the same soundscape that Cogmind already does, so there’s an argument to be made for not bothering with music in this situation… Of course, “most roguelikes” are also non-commercial-nearly all the commercial roguelikes do have their own music. Most roguelikes don’t even feature sound, much less music. ![]() ![]() With the upcoming Alpha 15 being story-complete, this can wait no longer! And my intent all along has been to wait until the main game is complete before tackling the issue of music, to be able to better gauge the full extent of what’s needed. For a while the whole music thing was something I was going to start dealing with in mid-2016, but last year Cogmind just kept increasing in scope as it felt like there was enough funding to justify adding more Fun Stuff while still on the route to finishing off the story. ![]()

2/13/2024 0 Comments Battle of the kursk tanks![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Soviets had intelligence of the German intentions, provided in part by British intelligence service and Enigma intercepts. It was also hoped that large numbers of Soviet prisoners would be captured to be used as slave labour in Germany's armaments industry. It was thought that a victory here would reassert Germany's strength and improve her prestige with allies who were considering withdrawing from the war. The plan envisioned an envelopment by a pair of pincers breaking through the northern and southern flanks of the salient. By eliminating the Kursk salient they would also shorten their lines of defence, taking the strain off of their overstretched forces. The Germans hoped to weaken the Soviet offensive potential for the summer of 1943 by cutting off a large number of forces that they anticipated would be in the Kursk salient assembling for an offensive. For the Soviets, the decisive victory gave the Red Army the strategic initiative for the rest of the war. For the Germans, the battle represented the final strategic offensive they were able to mount in the east. ![]() The German offensive was countered by two Soviet counteroffensives, Operation Polkovodets Rumyantsev (Russian: Полководец Румянцев) and Operation Kutuzov (Russian: Кутузов). The German offensive was code-named Operation Citadel (German language: Unternehmen Zitadelle) and led to one of the largest armoured clashes in history, the Battle of Prokhorovka. The Battle of Kursk was a World War II engagement between German and Soviet forces on the Eastern Front near Kursk (450 kilometres or 280 miles southwest of Moscow) in the Soviet Union in July and August 1943.

The estranged relationship between father and son and the consequences it brings was handled with a sensitivity that makes you stop and think of your own life. Everything flowed easily from scene to scene and the touching moments were done with perfection. This would be a good example of how it's done. It's refreshing to be able to sit down and relax with a movie that can carry itself without gore, sex, and profanity. I thoroughly enjoyed both the movie and the unique use of the music. It reminded me of a movie of the Smoky Mountains I once saw with only music playing while the movie runs. It played the entire movie and only softened during the dialogues. The one thing that caught my attention was the soundtrack. The cast, setting, and overall acting was superb. ![]() This is one of my all time favorite Hallmark Movies, and the list goes back into the early sixties. ![]() ![]() ( 4 ) In terms of the economic impa ct on domestic policy, enormous growth spurred by industries related to war was aided by heavy government expansion. ( 3 ) During the Cold War period, there was also a struggle for control of education which one could argue almost mirrors the socio-political and cultural conflict that was being waged on a national level during this period. Furthermore, there was a striving for unity and cohesion which can be broadly encapsulated by the term ‘Americ anism’ and is often referred to in an anti-communist context. T he intensive indoctrination of the American people led to a regression of social reforms especially regarding civil rights, labor unions, working conditions, and women’s concerns. The Cold War affected domestic policy in two ways: socially and economically. ![]() American allies depended almost exclusively on their stance on communism which was similarly applied to domestic policy. In scaring "the hell out of the American people ", Truman unleashed a fervor that would become part of American life and modify existing relationships with the outside world. The Cold War's rhetoric and anti-communist propaganda dictated foreign policy. Furthermore, it is imperative to acknowledge that t he Soviets never received any monetar y assis tan ce. Congress feared a return to recession and misuse of funds and placed drastic limits on lend-lease support pointing out that requests for loans after the war would meet deep uncertainty. As the war ended, enthusiasm turned to skepticism when American diplomats perceived a toughening of Soviet policy. From the Soviet perspective, American interests easily persuaded Stalin to petition for a loan ran ging from $1 bi llion in 1 943 to $10 b illion in 1 945. However, the issue of European economic reconstruction was entirely in the hands of the Americans, who posse ssed the strongest economy during and after the conflict. ![]() ![]() The American ideology was that a strong German industry would be a key to postwar commerce and trade releasing the United States from supporting the German economy for an extended period. Interestingly, American business interests and policymakers agreed but with differed reasoning. The Soviets argued that a pastoral Germany would be unable to make war reparations. ![]() 2/12/2024 0 Comments No flat mower tires![]() ![]() Most industrial tire dealers provide this service.” So, this process is recommended only for heavy-duty tires. Finally, foam filling does not make a thin tire stronger in fact, it may put more stress on a tire than it was designed to withstand - resulting in a shredded tire with nothing to support the foam. Foam-filled tires are harder on a tractor’s steering mechanism than air-filled tires, since there is less “give” to the foam. Foam-filled tires are several times heavier than air-filled tires. It is expensive: $40 or more for a small tire. This is popular with construction equipment, but useful for small tractors as well. Foam is available in several densities which approximate different inflation pressures. Urethane foam can be substituted for air in a tractor tire. If you don’t want to do all this, there are tire shops that will fill tires for you. To remedy that, I added more foam.Įven if I have to do this a few times, eventually I think the foam will be compressed to a certain point where it will not compress anymore. Allow the foam-filled tire to remain jacked up for a few days to make sure the foam has cured.Īfter a couple of uses, the tire softened up some and started to get a flat spot when it sat for a few days.Do this until the foam starts to exit the hole you drilled. ![]() Replace the valve stem insert and cap to keep the foam from exiting. ![]() This also allows any air in the tire to exit. Watch for foam to start exiting the valve stem area the foam will just have about filled the tire by that time.

The only standard way I’ve seen to obtain gems in game is by leveling characters up or leveling the player up. This is a currency that players can receive in game, but is considerably more rare. Magic can also be purchased via spending gems. It is easy to obtain via doing quests, assigning tasks for characters, or just letting the attractions/shops create it automatically over time. There are five kinds of resources in the game: magic, gems, happiness, materials and time. The game is all about resource management.
