General Discussion / Re: whats your pc specs?

« on: July 27, 2015, 03:39:53 am »

It's been a while since I actually had to dust off the ol' Speccy, but here's what I got:


-HARDWARE-
CPU: AMD FX-8350 @ Stock 4.0GHz
RAM: 8GB DDR3 G.Skill (2x4GB) @ Stock Clock
MOBO: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
GPU: ATI AMD Radeon R9 280, 3GB VRAM


-SOFTWARE-
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1
BROWSER: Chrome (Stable Release)


-PERIPHERALS-
MOUSE: CM Storm Custom
KEYBRD: MS SideWinder X4
HEADSET: GameCom 380
MONITOR: BenQ XL2420TE, 1920x1080 Resolution @ 144Hz


I basically worked my ass off for this, and it's been through a case change already. Hopefully once I'm through with college (or during) I'll be able to work and keep upgrading for future releases. Mostly for Fallout 4, though. Also I have a couple fans and the CPU running on an upgraded fan cooler, though I'm hoping to be able to afford a water cooling system for the overclockin'.

For anyone concerned about ~mysterious internet files~ , I can vouch for the non-viral existence of this .rar download. I scanned it over using Windows Security Essentials and Malwarebytes and both came up clean! So no worries.


Also, Frog, how do you install this? When I download it all I get is an entities folder with no instructions.

To gain oxygen you can just use a water pump along with an H2O splitter, or use gas systems.

Water pumps only apply where there's water, though, and there are quite a few planets that lack H₂0 to pump. Off the top of my head I don't remember which of the many resource-iums can convert to water, but I find them to be a bit more multi-purpose than straight-up water pumps.

Honestly, mining is pretty useful now that compressors aren't allowed. Also, there's another thread touching on this, but admin events could maybe tie into utilizing mining? Someone who can mine the most in a pre-allotted time? As-is, blox is right in that mining just as a tool to unlock more stuff is kinda difficult and probably wouldn't be a popular decision.

I think for a lot of these sorts of things we'd need to have a better server whitelist/blacklist first. It tends to be really easy to just spawn something like the Stargate adrenaline kit or the health cube to keep yourself alive on hostile planets or in space long enough to set up basic Environmental Control. Though the idea is pretty cool, and I think it'd make for some really great times if we could coordinate these sorts of shenanigans.

Introduce Yourself / Heya fellas!

Hello, I'm SeasonalCorgi, a relatively new addition to the BG SB3 server, as some of you might have noticed. I'm a all-round seasonal gamer, though for the most part I do enjoy games where you just faff about and build stuff, hence my attraction to SpaceBuild!


Though I'm not very well-versed in E2 or complex Wiremod contraptions, I am a veteran of the SpaceBuild scene, having been around since the dawn of SB2 (potentially somewhat before the "official designation") and well up to the current version. I have had moderator experience on a variety of different GMod servers, and have happily coached a few players in the basics of SpaceBuild and Wire so that more of the fun stuff is accessible. Currently I'm writing up a basic outline for a SpaceBuild tutorial to post on YouTube so that there's at least one that is relatively up-to-date while still being in simple, easy-to-digest terms.


I'm sort of a nerd, currently trying to be a mechanical engineer and also an aspiring Wiremod learner. West Coast/California mentality through-and-through, and keeping in tradition that means I'm on during the later PST hours. Hope to see the lot of you on the SB3 server!
