Some general tips for the higher difficulties ġ. This can be done on Desperado as well, and applies to all future missions with this badge, although the only reason to do this would be completionism/challenge/bragging rights. Complete the mission on Hard difficulty.Sadly there is no "Speedrun Timer" on the UI while running, but you can press ESC for the pause menu to see a timer. Showdown Mode does not pause the timer.Īlso, using the X hotkey (hold by default, can be changed to a toggle in options) speeds up the actions of the game, but not the timer, so useful for speedruns in situations where you don't need to react. If you need time to think, press ESC to pause the game. So if you passed a really hard part of the speedrun, do a manual save, then if you mess up the part after that section you can always exit to main menu and load to get another try. If you want to split it into segments, going back to the main menu and loading a save from there DOES reset the timer to the time of the save. Then, when ready, go back to the main menu and start anew. Train by abusing quicksave constantly, until you figure out your route, and are confident in executing it. That doesn't necessarily mean you can't use quicksaves. The timer does NOT reset after a quickload/normal load, it keeps ticking up, therefore you need to do it in a few saves as possible too. Skip as many unnecessary kills as possible, and do not hide corpses unless absolutely critical. Speedrun: Complete the mission in under 05:30 minutes.Ī few general tips for this kind of badge that should carry forwards.Feel free to go crazy with dynamite at the end. Pretty simple, no Buntline, no dual revolvers. Also, if you accidentally get spotted, it's might be possible to come back, maybe heal up, and come back once the enemies have calmed down. Other than that, it's just practice until you know the mission well enough to do this. You might also want to temporarily unbind the Quickload key. Just remember not to press Quickload by reflex. This way you don't accidentally save by misclick or reflex. Then in the difficulty select screen, press "Show Details" and switch the "Amount Of Saves" over to "None". To do this with relative ease, first set the difficulty to Beginner. Plenty of chances at the end, also a spot to get it halfways through the mission. Distract 3 bandits at the same time using Cooper's coin.Near the end, kill as few enemies as possible, taking the ladders on the left up. Also possible with pushing a rock off a ledge. Not that one is near Big Ann at the end, and if you take too long to kill her once you get close she will shoot him.īasically, don't get into knife throw range of Big Ann until you are ready to kill her with a Showdown Mode knife toss.Įasy to do with dynamite at the end. As long as you remain undetected while taking out the gunmen guarding them, you should be fine. This means for some where badges are mutually exclusive, you can simply do a save, meet the criteria for one, reload, then do the other badge. You do not need to beat the level nor continue from that moment. Note that badges are granted as soon as you qualify. If at a loss, I suggest searching for a YouTube video of the feat. I will give general advice on how to approach Speedruns, but routing the run I will leave up to the reader. While I may provide strategic tips here and there, it is not the primary purpose of the guide to tell the reader how to get past every single tough spot in a mission.Īlso, while I may give some pointers if I become aware of a neat trick, this is not a Speedrun guide despite Speedruns being badges. This does not, however, mean that this is a strategy guide. This guide is a simple list to alleviate that issue, giving you the option to work on badges the first time through the game.Īlso, aside from speedruns, I do my best to do as many badges as possible on Desperado, to make sure the information I provide isn't just circumstantial, although I recommend Beginner for a lot of these. While I understand it might be to avoid mission spoilers in some cases, it also serves as a "false" extension of playtime, requiring an extra run or two through missions for badges you might well have picked up the first time through had you been aware. The developers, Mimimi, have made the decision as with their previous game, Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, to only show the full list of badges in a mission after beating it at least once. Responsive Controls, Terrific Screen, Incredible SoundĮvery game on the Arcade1Up Pac-Man Deluxe machine relies on a single button or the machine’s joystick controller to play-as far as skill is concerned, they all feel simple enough to master. You can also start chats with other users if you want to challenge them to beat your score. The brand also has a companion app in which you can keep tabs on the newest cabinets from Arcade1Up, plus add other Arcade1Up members. I definitely don’t come close to anyone in the top 20 for a single game on my Deluxe Pac-Man cabinet, but it’s still an excellent feature. You can see where you rank between the sea of other players within the nation for any game on your cabinet. One unique feature of Arcade1Up machines is the inclusion of Wi-Fi-enabled leaderboards, which adds a layer of competition between other owners. But Arcade1Up seems to have perfected the home arcade cabinet. In any case, it’s tough to imagine an arcade machine would fit in most living spaces, especially for those who live in an apartment like mine. The brand’s Deluxe series introduced larger sizes to its lineup, more faithful to the traditional arcade cabinet in size and appearance. Most of Arcade1Up’s machines are a three-fourths scale of a full-sized arcade cabinet, hovering around 4 feet and requiring a stool or squat to play. It’s a simple project for two people at most, and is certainly user-friendly. Yell0w caps smartly cover the screws, so all metal parts are hidden, and many pieces slot into each other snugly. For the most part, the instructions were easy to follow-they would read better if the assembly illustrations labeled which panel has printed artwork on it-but it didn’t feel frustrating. It took me about three hours to assemble the cabinet, shuffling wooden parts around, screwing in pieces I held up with my legs, and using nothing more than a screwdriver. I called in a sample of the Arcade1Up Pac-Man Deluxe arcade machine, unpacked and built it, and then play-tested it for one month to see if it would give me Pac-Man fever or just a short-lived nostalgia trip. For the consumer who’s always wanted to put an arcade machine in their home, that’s a pretty respectable price. The Arcade1Up Pac-Man Deluxe arcade game has 14 games in one 5-foot-tall cabinet, complete with a light-up marquee, a faux coin slot, stereo speakers, Wi-Fi leaderboards, and replicated cabinet art, all for $499. That’s probably why Arcade1Up, a hardware company that specializes in producing arcade games with modern components for home use, chose the title for its mainline Deluxe series of arcade cabinets. A hit since its 1980 debut, it’s nearly synonymous with arcades-its iconography is as recognizable as Super Mario, and its play objective is so accessible a toddler could play it. Only a few generations of gamers understand what hitting a local arcade may feel like, but even the most casual players have played at least one game of Pac-Man. Looking at the stylesheet, we see this attribute represents the realm Type. T: T? What could that be? Well, there are a few ways to figure that out, either by looking at the formatted XML and cross-referencing it with the raw XML, or looking at the stylesheet.N: Obvious in my opinion, this is the name of the realm.Now, each one of these attributes stands for something. My guess is this would make downloads much faster. To see this, right-click on the page and go to View Source.īlizzard has created some highly optimized XML in the fact that the attribute names are very, very short. Much like HTML pages, it has a stylesheet attached. If you're familiar with XHTML, you would know it's a hybrid of HTML in the fact that it's XML compliant. This page, like many HTML pages, is just XML with a style sheet attached. Now, if you're wondering why you don't see any XML, that's a good question. If you're using a modern web browser, you won't see any XML, you should see a moderately formatted page with the status, type, and popularity of each realm. So to start off, we'll take a look at Blizzard's WoW Realm Status XML page. If we're going to be querying against anything, we need data. Using the Code Understanding the Story Behind the Data NET 3.5 was in Beta 2 as well as Visual Studio 2008, and World of Warcraft had 9,000,000+ subscribers. Please note that at the time this article was written. NET 3.5's new XML to LINQ framework for use in any application, either web or a deployable executable. This article will show how to take advantage of this open data format and. One example of this would be Blizzard using it to display WoW Realm status. Some companies/individuals are using it to save application settings, blog posts, and many other things. With XML being an open data format that many people can use on any platform, it's no wonder big companies are relying on it to not only store, but display data too. So I thought it would be appropriate to display to the public how to bring together the two passions of many people's lives. A lot of people are playing World of Warcraft these days (9,000,000+, to be exact). Just above ground level at one end is a roughly 4'-8"x4'-8" landing. The width at 8'-0" matches the width of the existing sun room. Originally the patio was smaller, but 14' is reaching the maximum joist span so the walkway was shortened and the patio lengthened. My deck is 150 square feet, consisting of an 8'x10' patio and then a 14'-3" x 4'-8" walkway. It's more efficient to span with a joist rather than a beam. As far as what direction for beams, spanning across my garage door dictated my beams would be perpendicular to the house. Joist size and spacing governs overhangs and the spacing of beams. The overall dimensions of your deck will determine the beam and joist length. To start with a deck design, design the deck you want in regards to size, then work back through the joist and beam sizes. One bit would be good for about six holes.įraming: tape measure, pencil, truck & trailer, circular saw, hand saw, corded drill, 3/8" drill bit, 1/2" drill bit, 5/8" forstner bit, rasp, hammer, 3/4" wrench, string, string level, level, framing angle, step ladder & scaffolding depending on the height of the deckĭeck and Railing: tape measure, pencil, cordless drill, circular saw, jig saw, framing angle, level, right angle drill attachment depending on joist spacign, die grinder/cut off wheel, welder (optional) Preliminary: tape measure, pencil/paper, Sketchupįootings: tape measure, pencil, 2x4s, framing angle, nails, spray paint, flat nose shovel, mattock, post hole diggers, angle grinder, vice, wheel barrow, bucket, rubber mallet, level, string, string level, oscillating dremel tool, corded drill, (6) 1/8" masonry bits I bought them from a big box home improvement store. In addition to concrete, hangers, lumber, and deck boards which I detail in a later step, I used the following tools as best I recall: It's a learning process and that takes time. I didn't take any prolonged breaks until December once the deck was mostly in place and usable. I worked most nights and many weekends, just a one person job. I broke ground in June 2019 and finished in October. While you should confirm local requirements, it's unlikely they would be more stringent than the IRC. The new deck is built right, according to the deck portion of the International Residential Code which is much more stringent than my local code. The deck should be independently supported. It's attached to the house rim joist, but the house rim joist cantilevers. The railings are insufficient and are surface mounted to the deck board. The joists span too far and are attached only with nails, no brackets. It just sits on a metal base The column is not attached to the beam either. The column is not attached to the footing. What's wrong with it? The "footing" is a concrete paver sitting on top of the ground. You can get a car through the door, but it's tricky. They even put a column in front of the garage door. Footings, columns, joists, bracing, railings. I hope the homeowner did this and not a hired professional. I planned to get rid of it anyway, but it is amazing the previous builder got every little detail wrong. Once I looked into it, I soon realized nothing on my current deck meets code. When I first bought my house, I knew I would replace the deck sooner or later. The Dash feels great to me, the 19" frame is just a half inch smaller than the frame I have on my mountain bike, but it just feels nice. I have about 11 appreciable hills on my way to work, which is also in a mostly uphill direction. My goal is to average somewhere around 22-25 MPH, and I got alot of hills around me. Over the next few weeks I'm going to continue testing the bike as I build up confidence in my ability to make my commute in a timely fashion (while also dropping my son off at day care). Being 6'1" and nearing 240lbs I understand I'm probably a bit of a larger rider for the battery and that I should expect some performance problems until I start losing some of this weight. One thing I've found out already about the dash is that you can get those higher speeds with very little effort, but a massive drain on the battery. This is going to be perfect for my 13 mile (each way) daily commute. What sold the bike for me was the speed you could keep even with pedal assist 1 with next to zero effort, ~15'sh MPH, on 4 I was able to get myself up to 30 on the flats with some effort, and topped out around 35 MPH going downhill, trying to pedal as hard as I could. But hey at least I'm going to get a $260 dividend at the end of the year. I love the bike, but quite honestly the REI staff just don't know E-Bikes, when I wasn't in their store looking at the bike they kept all the e-bikes way off in an area that nobody will ever see, very sad. I just purchased the Dash today after much deliberation, REI was the only retailer for IZip I could find in a reasonable driving distance from my home in Aurora, CO, so I had to break my rule of not going with my local bike shop. First time post on these forums, but I love the reviews that I've checked over the last two weeks on EBR. Delete the folder ‘Secret Cache’ within the opened Window.

We have found that workers who experienced a longer gap between registration and approval not only take longer to book their first shift, but are more likely to remain inactive and never book a first shift. The data is clear: NHS bank staff who have been onboarded quickly tend to book more shifts. However, to ensure the success of your recruitment programme, onboarding is key.
