![]() ![]() With the original Quake being remastered for modern platforms, it will be interesting to see if the other games in the series get a similar treatment. The recent success of Splitgate suggests that there is quite a big appetite for traditional arena shooters that Quake helped innovate, so it will be interesting to see how many gamers flock to the game's revitalized online multiplayer mode. The Quake story campaigns can be played in 4-player co-op locally and online, and the versus multiplayer supports 4 players locally and 8 online, with dedicated servers. And as an added bonus, Wolfenstein developer MachineGames has built a brand new Quake expansion for release with the remaster called Dimension of the Machine. It comes with the base game along with its expansions, The Scourge of Armagon, Dissolution of Eternity, and Dimension of the Past. The Quake remaster upgrades the visuals to 4K resolution and makes a variety of other graphical and audio improvements. RELATED: Doom Developer id Software is Apparently Making A VR Game And even though Quake is a 25 year old game, that $9.99 doesn't seem like a bad asking price at all when one considers everything that this remaster comes with. Xbox Game Pass subscribers and those that already own the original game on PC through Steam or Bethesda can play for free, but otherwise it costs $9.99. The Quake remaster is currently available on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, with plans to bring it to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X at a later date through a free next-gen next upgrade. At QuakeCon 2021, Bethesda has confirmed the rumors, surprise-launching a Quake remaster that is now available for users to download across numerous platforms. The landmark release still has its fans 25 years later, but now everyone will get to play an updated version of the FPS classic. Currently, the re-release is only scheduled for release in North America, but a European re-release at some point in the future isn’t out of the question.The original Quake launched in 1996 and became one of the most-influential first-person shooters ever made. In addition, we are not sure if the re-released version for the 360 will include Quake 2 or not. One attractive part of purchasing Quake 4 for the Xbox 360, however, was that it included Quake 2 as part of the release and many commented that this was the best part of the 360 Quake 4 offering.īethesda has not confirmed if any fixes to the frame rate issues are addressed in the re-release or not, but we rather doubt it. The thing is that while the PC version enjoyed a good amount of success, the 360 version suffered from frame rate issues that really impacted the playability of the game.Īlthough several patches were released for Quake 4 on the Xbox 360, the game never did seem to find its groove as it did with the PC release. While Quake 4 was released back in 2005 for the PC, it didn’t arrive for the Xbox 360 platform until a bit later. ![]() Both the PC and the Xbox 360 version will be sold for a $19.99 price tag when it arrives for its North American re-launch on June 19th. The new (although somewhat strange) release is confirmed. Quake 4 is going to be re-released by Bethesda for the PC and Xbox 360. ![]()

![]() If you can relate with me here, having a cool atmosphere with your gaming accessories, then I’d definitely recommend picking this up for sure! It’s perfect for setting a good atmosphere. I haven’t seen the other color options in person but I’m certain that the green and red options are just as ambient as this blue one that I use. A darker room with some extra lighting, especially with the blue color, it’s just awesome for me! Personally, I love my overall atmosphere when I am gaming. I have taken a photo of mine in some dark lighting to show how much it shines off of a surface, it can seriously be used as an ambient small lamp if you so choose to! □ The lights are actually a lot bright than you think, and they will shine bright, especially in a dark room. This controller is not only useful for gaming, it’s also useful for providing a cool atmosphere. The rumble feature delivers that exact experience with the click of a button! I personally keep my controller at the rumble lights option because keeping them on is too distracting for me when I am gaming sometimes but I still want to have the atmosphere that the lights give off. There’s no way to turn off the rumble feature, just to controller whether the lights pulse with them or not. You press it once to keep the LED’s, another time to keep them off and then a third time to have them pulse with the vibration of the controller when you are in some action. There is a button on the backside right behind the right hand holding portion of the controller, I’ve circled where the button is located on my controller in the picture to the right. Not only is it reliable to the angry gamer, but it’s got some sweet lights inside of it as well that you can control. Although these days I don’t get nearly as angry, I just really need to put it out there that it has survived my past temper tantrums towards it and that is proof of its durability! Yes, I sometimes would let anger take me over and yes, I’ve dropped this controller in times of frustration. ![]() Trust me, there would be times where I would die and have to respawn in some games and… well… let’s just say that it’s got some hard plastic to it, as well as some durable pads. My specific game-pad version of this bad boy is the blue version, just like the one pictured above. ![]() If I am playing any first person shooter then I be sure that I game with the mouse simply because it is much more precise and accurate with that precision than any Xbox 360 controller out there. I use my Afterglow controller pretty often, especially when it comes to certain third person games and driving games. What I mean by this is that it’s extremely long lasting, durable, packed with some extra features, cheap and awesome.

It’s not rocket science: the GIF and GIFV formats are built to display quickly, which means they need to be small, which means they need to discard a lot of data, like pixels and colors. ![]() MRW My Friend Farts In The Car And Locks The Windows How to Find GIF Footage Here’s how to edit videos with subtitles and other special effects, save the files, and then create both old-school high-quality GIFs and new-school high-quality GIFV files. It’s time you started making smooth, colorful, cinematic looping videos with some added special effects for flourish. You’ll soon look back on the grainy, 200 pixels wide images you used to share with a kind of wistful, nostalgic shame. With all these new file formats and uploading websites, you’re in the middle of a GIF Renaissance. Image hosting websites GIPHY and IMGUR have invented new file formats that basically show video clips like they’re GIFs - you can embed them in stories, share them in texts, or save them as old-school GIFs to share in emails and other places that aren’t quite ready for the GIFV revolution yet. But there’s also some new tech that makes sharing smooth, colorful video clips even easier. ![]() You can get some of these effects by following the best practices, which we’ll show you below. Its mission is laid out in the community description as, “GIFs that are better quality than your mother’s GIFs.” In more specific terms, these GIFs prioritize a few key components: resolution, smoothness, visual effects, and software. View post on The Deal with High-Quality GIFsĪctually, there’s a whole Reddit community ( r/HighQualityGIFs) devoted to the subject. Without needing to send a YouTube link, you can easily embed a perfectly-timed movie reference or reaction into your conversations. And since they get shared so often, the same video gets compressed and looks worse each time it gets saved and re-uploaded.īasically, most GIFs get the job done. It’s hard to make a series of moving images about the same file size as just one static image, like a JPEG. Most GIFs look small and low resolution, like the one above. For as widespread as GIFs have become, they, unlike videos or images, usually look pretty outdated. You’ll probably get teased less if you say it with the hard G and not like the peanut butter brand.Īnyway. So it really depends if you’re a prescriptive or descriptive linguist. You might also ask: is it “jif” or “gif” with a hard G sound? The founder says “jif”. That coffee mug animation? We regret to inform you it was groundbreaking at one point in time. Just take a look at the miraculously-still-maintained Bob Dole 1996 campaign website. With only 256 colors, they’re designed to be efficient, small files, best suited for short clips with pretty similar frames. This format only supports 8-bit color with only 256 different colors, so it is a good choice for images that require small file sizes but do not need high color quality.You might ask: why do GIFs always look pixelated and less colorful than videos? Well, the file format existed back when you needed to unplug your home phone to use the internet.

As it cures, epoxy passes from the liquid state, through a gel state, before it reaches a solid-state (Figure 1). This period of transformation is the cure time. Mixing epoxy resin with a hardener begins a chemical reaction that transforms the combined liquid ingredients into a solid. Be sure to scrape the sides of the mixing container. Using a stir stick, blend properly metered resin and hardener for at least one full minute. Datasheets can be found in the “PDF” tab on each product’s description page on this website. See the hardener label or technical data sheet for the weight ratio of the resin and hardener combination you’re working with, and use a scale to measure the desired weight. The exact weight measurement for these ratios is slightly different from the volume ratio due to resin and hardener density. To achieve the correct 2:1 mix ratio by volume, simply measure out 2 parts resin to 1 part hardener before mixing the components. When not using pumps, you’ll need to measure Entropy resins and hardeners by weight or volume to achieve the correct ratio of 2-parts resin to 1-part hardener. Recheck the ratio anytime you experience problems with curing. Read the pump instructions before using the pumps.īefore you use the first pump-dispensed mixture on a project, verify the pumps are delivering the correct ratio by following the calibration process on the pump instructions. Partial strokes will give the wrong ratio. Depress each pump head fully and allow the head to rise completely back to the top before beginning the next stroke. Pump two full pump strokes of resin for each full pump stroke of hardener. To simplify dispensing and reduce the possibility of errors, use Entropy Pumps to meter the correct ratio of resin to hardener. Resin and hardener dispensed at the wrong ratio is the source of most cure-related problems. An accurate ratio is essential for epoxy to fully cure and develop its physical properties. Do not attempt to adjust the epoxy cure time by altering the mix ratio. Don’t use glass or foam containers because of the danger of exothermic heat buildup. Dispensing Resin and hardenerĭispense the correct proportions of resin and hardener into a clean plastic, metal, or wax-free paper container. It’s also a good idea to review epoxy safety protocols. Mix small batches until you’re confident of the mixture’s handling characteristics, and because epoxy kicks off faster in larger, contained batches. ![]() This way, you’ll get a good understanding of the epoxy’s open (or workable) time for the temperature you’re working in, and ensure that you’re properly metering the resin and hardener ratio. If this is your first time using an Entropy Resins epoxy product, begin with a small test batch to get a feel for the mixing and curing process before applying epoxy to your project. Whether you’re applying the epoxy mixture to wet out fiberglass, as a coating or a casting, the following steps will ensure a controlled and thorough chemical transition to a high-strength epoxy solid. Check the hardener label or the technical data sheet for the correct mix ratio of resin to hardener. Dispensing, Measuring & Mixing Epoxy Resin and HardenerĬareful measuring and thorough mixing of epoxy resin and hardener are essential for epoxy to cure properly. ![]() ![]() Many elite and amateur athletes incorporate compression therapy after performance with a pressure device.Īccording to a 2014 article by a sports physiologist who directed the U.S. However, I would say that ‘your mileage may vary,’” he explained. “Most of the evidence I’m aware of to support faster recovery or reduced soreness is not as strong as what we’ve discussed above. “There are many people who wear compression garments to support their legs during athletic activity,” Armstrong says. Study authors noted the mechanism is unclear. The study authors noted it’s not known yet why this happens.Ī 2019 study found positive effects on performance and on recovery from wearing compression tights during exercise. This was the case for different levels of compression. One of the difficulties in measuring benefits is that athletes use many types of stockings and other garments with different levels of compression.Ī 2015 review of 24 randomized controlled studies found that there were benefits during recovery after exercise when people wore compression garments during the exercise. Compression therapy is thought to improve performance, reduce soreness after exercise, and reduce the risk of blood clots. ![]()
