11/9/2023 0 Comments Nba 2k12 rookies![]() ![]() So an original NBA 2K rating is not always the best indicator for future success in the NBA.įor what it is worth, the mean/median/mode for a rookie in NBA 2K since 2009 is between 71 and 72. Meanwhile, some players who did not come close but have had tremendous professional careers include Nikola Jokic (68), Pascal Siakam (67), Giannis Antetkounmpo (60) and Rudy Gobert (52). ![]() Some honorable mentions whose debut ratings just barely missed the cut for our list and were rated a 77 include Anthony Edwards ( 2K21), Trae Young ( 2K19), Jayson Tatum ( 2K18) and Andrew Wiggins ( 2K15). Even once they were added to the game, however, none had a high enough rating to make this list. Kyrie Irving and Kawhi Leonard) when the game was first released. It is worth noting that due to the lockout, NBA 2K12 did not include any of the rookie class (e.g. These were the rankings for each player as they first entered the game. ![]() Using the HoopsHype database, we were able to sort through every rookie rating in NBA 2K since NBA 2K10. A majority of the key rookies have signed and are now in the game, so we here at Operation Sports put together a list of the top rookies in NBA 2K12. We chose the top-24 players because it’s NBA 2K24 and Kobe Bryant, who wore No. We took a look at how Wembanyama compares to every other rookie in the video game for the past decade or so. Every single portrait that came with the game is still included. (Created by Wim.vl, Hawk23, and Nuhmete) Over 1,000+ portraits were added to NBA2K12's Portrait.iff files. It isn’t easy to determine a rating for a rookie who hasn’t played in the NBA, but rookie superstar Victor Wembanyama is already breaking the mold. This will add over 1000+ portraits to your game (rookies, legends, retro players) without removing any portraits. ![]() 11/9/2023 0 Comments Fedora workstation for emac ppc![]() That was also the biggest reason I had problems. ![]() That’s fine if you have blank CD-R media or a CD-RW disc, but I haven’t burnt a CD in years and have no blanks at present. I suggest you start by downloading Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) desktop CD, which is designed to be burnt to a CD-R and give you a fully bootable way to test out Linux before you commit to it. Starting with version 12.04 the 32-bit and 64-bit versions are part of the same package for Macs. Anything before G5 can only use a 32-bit Linux. The only PowerPC Macs that can use a 64-bit operating system are G5 iMacs and Power Macs. PowerPC distros prior to version 12.04 have separate 32-bit and 64-bit installers. You can download 14.04 and 16.04 from this page, earlier versions from this page, where you can also get version 12.04 for PowerPC, among many other architectures. That’s also the latest version available for PowerPC at present. ![]() Version 14.04 was released in the 4th month of 2014, and 16.04 in the 4th month of 2016. Ubuntu Linux has a simple numbering scheme for its versions. Lubuntu is known for having a lighter-weight user interface, LXDE – similar to what Simon Royal used when he put LXLE on an old PC. After talking with others in our small-but-growing Linux PPC Facebook group, I settled on Lubuntu as a good starting point. It’s my most powerful PowerPC Mac, so I figured it would be a good way to take Linux for a spin. My original testbed was a Late 2005 2.3 GHz Power Mac G5 Dual with 3 GB of RAM and two hard drives, one with OS X 10.4 Tiger, the other with OS X 10.5 Leopard. If only I’d had a blank CD-R or DVD-R, it would have been a lot easier! This time around I wanted to create a “live” flash drive so I could make sure it actually worked before committing to installing Linux on a hard drive. ![]() Everything was handled through the command line in the late 1990s. Back in the olden days, Linux was a text-based operating system similar to MS-DOS. ![]() I’ve experimented with Linux and BSD Macs going back to the Mac IIci era, and I’ve never had much luck. I’m going to make it a lot easier for you to install Linux on your old PPC Macs. It took me a couple weeks of research, asking questions of our Linux on PowerPC Macs group on Facebook, and experimenting before I could finally boot into Linux 14.04 from a thumb drive.

I hope this is clear and not too “stupid” From a lot of googling and looking at forums it looks like h.264 main would be an ok choice? Can I then leave the other settings under video and codec tabs as they are? That is, do they set themselves to something sensible, based on the initial choice of h.264? For example I see that under “codec” it gives “quality 60%” - does that mean the quality will be worse and I should increase this value? My files are between 40 and 100GB each at the moment and it would be better if they ended up smaller after I have cut some bits out, certainly not larger. When I hit “properties” it says my input file is 720 x 576, codec raw video, frame rate 25 and format yuyv422. I am having trouble sorting out export settings. I don’t want to lose quality if I can help it as the quality is already not that great, and I still need to do a final edit of selected bits. I ran into problems with videodub, VCL and Avidemux (including the edited file repeatedly disappearing part way through final saving) and am now trying Shotcut which looks like it will work. I just want to have these videos on my computer and be able to occasionally show to family - no youtube upload or whatever. I need to cut some small messy bits out of these (and later create a new video of an hour or so with some “best parts”). All I'm trying to is trim out the beginning and ending of the Zoom MP4, but Adobe Premier doesn't seem to be able to do that and yield a file of a comparible size.I have copied old videos onto my computer and now have about 15 quite large. The Zoom MP4 is pretty good, and not at all blurry, and the voice quality is fine. I notice that the Export Settings window actually gives a preview of what the output will look like, and even the higher 3GPP 352x288 H.263 gives results that are too blurry, even though the file size is larger than the original. I then tried again, this time selecting MPEG4 and medium bitrate - this time, the file was smaller than the original but the video was so blurry it was unusable. When I chose H.264 and high bitrate, the exported file was over 5Gb. ![]() It's basically a Powerpoint presentation of about 70 minutes, with a voiceover. I recorded a webinar using Zoom, which created an 85Mb MP4 file. You will have dramatically lowered file sizes. and drop to say 12 max for 1920x1080, and maybe 20 max for UHD. Now go down to the settings for CBR/VBR, and select VBR (variable bitrate, only 'keeps' the bits per frame needed). Then go down into the Video tab, Level setting rather than say 5.1, drop that to about 4. Use a preset for the frame-size of your export. H.265(HEVC) is probably what you want for format, HEVC/265 is more highly compressed and typically better quality than H.264. So you only start with a preset, then you have to go into the settings to take control yourself. Forget that, you're demanding compress the heck out of it. ![]() Including for extreme compression, where H.264/265 are probably what you will need.Īnd the presets offered are trying to maintain quality. you of course have to accept potential issues.Īccepting the above, we all need to learn the format/codec settings for various needs, that's a normal part of editing. Starting with say screen-capture media, which is normally extremely compressed, editing it, and wanting to get back the that extremely condensed version. Premiere can do all sorts of things if you know to go in and actually, like, set the many options so it will do what you want. If you included the information on the original file from say the Tree view of MediaInfo, and your export settings in Premiere, and the MediaInfo Tree view of that export, we could make actually useful comments. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sample Ghirardelli's full size chocolate bars, available in a variety of delicious flavors, including Dark Chocolate Peppermint Bark, 72% Cacao Twilight Delight, Blood Orange Sunset and Hazelnut Heaven.

Still, the beauty of Dwarf Fortress IS that it doesn't care about the UI. Approach it like a software development tool, or a Linux server and it becomes a little less daunting, especially as all the letters are on the screen for quick reference, rather than in a man page. Treat the experience more like playing with some sort of odd micro-kernel in a VM, with tools for poking and probing it. ![]() But thanks to dozens of radical tools, you, too, can turn your fortress into a 3D, moving world. It really is a matter of putting in the hours. Just look at Unix History repository here for example: - I think there's immense long term value in preserving this kind of archival history.Īnything worth doing takes a lot of work, and Dwarf Fortress is no different. ![]() imagine in fifty years historians wanting to analyze the project's history, it would be so much more useful to have a granular history instead of just a blob of files scattered across thousands of directories. Second, it's a loss of historical record. I can't help but think that first, it's a bit dangerous way to work, all "past, current and future" state of the project is only in his head and if he happens to become indisposed, the project is very very likely to die (though I suppose there would be hardcore fans willing to reverse engineer it). In an interview I read, Tarn said something to the effect of that "he was not interested in learning about version control and it would just be a distraction that would take away time from the important work, since the way he works has worked for him for many years". I know they don't want to open source it, but I wonder if they would be amenable to having a volunteer who would help organize and push the code into a version control system hosted on their private server. ![]() 11/8/2023 0 Comments Sonic the hedgehog 2 movie shadow![]() So, the third Sonic the Hedgehog film will probably pay homage to both the villainous and the heroic side of Shadow. Other times, Shadow is a powerful weapon against invading alien threats. Sometimes, Shadow shows up as a villain whose hatred for humanity turns him into a menace to all humankind. The antihero is created using the DNA of an evil alien race that wants to rule the whole universe. However, contrary to the blue hero, Shadow is not bound by the same moral code, which turns him into either a deadly adversary or a powerful ally.Īfter his debut in 2001, Shadow would become a recurring character in the franchise and even got a solo game in 2005. Just like Sonic, Shadow possesses super speed. Gerald wanted to use Project Shadow to find a cure for all of humanity’s illnesses but had his lab shut down by the government, who feared the power of the monster Gerald had created. In the game, we learn that Shadow results from an experiment conducted by Gerald Robotnik, Dr.Robotnik’s grandfather. Shadow the Hedgehog first appeared in 2001’s Sonic Adventures 2. Robotnik have kept a secret alien hidden for fifty years? And where this alien comes from? To answer these questions, we need to look at the Sonic game franchise. The experiment's name, “Project Shadow,” leaves no doubt about the figure’s identity: that’s no one else but Shadow, the gunslinger hedgehog. As the camera cuts to a scene inside this underground base, we see a figure that looks almost like Sonic, but whose fur is all black with red stripes. Robotnik’s database, which reveals the location of a secret base where devious experiments were done five decades earlier. The real surprise is related to a secret file the G.U.N. The evil scientist apparently escapes in the middle of the mayhem, and will most certainly be back with a new plan for world domination. That’s why it’s not exactly surprising when the soldier of the Guardian Units of Nations (G.U.N.) fails to recover the body of Dr. But you know the cinema’s rules: without a body, we cannot believe in anyone’s death. Robotnik's giant robot, the evil scientist falls to his death amidst the wreckage of the death machine. Even Eggman's little Mushroom machines could be seen as intentional references to the "Sonic & Knuckles" level, which itself featured various levers, elevators, and other gadgets made of mushrooms and vines.After Sonic, Tails (voiced by Colleen O'Shaughnessey), and Knuckles (voiced by Idris Elba) join forces to take down Dr. Robotnik is a common occurrence in the games, and it's the main plotline of "Sonic the Hedgehog 3," where the Knuckles first appeared as an unplayable villain. ![]() Knuckles being tricked into working for Dr. This introduction includes a couple of other nods to the video games as well. As such, it seems highly intentional that he makes his first appearance in the "Sonic" film franchise surrounded by mushrooms. ![]() Since "Sonic & Knuckles" is the first game in which the red echidna became a playable character, and since Mushroom Hill Zone is the first level of that game, the stage can easily be seen as Knuckles' debut - his Green Hill Zone, if you will. The fact that Knuckles first enters the story on the Mushroom Planet is entirely appropriate, given that the locale is clearly inspired by the "Sonic & Knuckles" level Mushroom Hill Zone. ![]() 11/8/2023 0 Comments Traktor s2 mk2 lighting![]() ![]() ![]() You might be better off just getting the pro 3.

I admire my boyfriend though, because he always knows how to make me feel better, and believe in myself again.Īfter writing on that site, I managed to become an Elite Writer, then an Elite Plus. Since I always vented my insecurity and frustrations on him, and every time I get an article rejected, it affected my day. Still, these negative comments made me doubt my ability to the point that it annoyed my boyfriend. Ranging from: “not what I requested,” “grammar errors”, “not what I like.” Basically, generic comments. Oftentimes, the requesters’ reasons were very ridiculous. However, I still gave it a shot, and I was very happy and excited when my first article got approved and graded with 5-stars.Īs I kept on taking requests, I also faced rejections.
