I am having a bit of trouble getting the height adjuster mod to work, and sadly, it's the ONLY mod that I want out of the 2 that is not working.

SkyUI is amazing. ♥

EDIT: player.setscale (insert number) was a thing.

I love SkyUI.

It's partially working for me as of now. SKSE64 not running or something like that. The UI is sexy and works, but the mods (like character scaling or camera fixing)... ahh, nope.

Sorry if I am turning this into tech support. I'm gonna find my way around fixing it. :P Or maybeee not. Skyrim SE got updated and now SKSE is outdated. Ahh, I don't know anymore.

A quick dive into wikipedia has left me... confused to say the least. So MechAssault is part of the BattleTech series which is owned by someone called Topps which is a chewing gum and trading card company, with games supposedly published by Catalyst Game Labs but MechWarrior Online and BattleTech(2018) along with other games you haven't heard of aren't. And the folks who made MechAssault 1 and 2 haven't had the haven't had the license to make a game in the series since 2005 probably and likely never will again since being acquired by Wargamming in 2013 to do, I don't really know.

As for the state of any of these games. They're... existing.

Battletech 2018 is actually really fun. I had a blast playing it. Need to get around to finishing it though, got distracted by some other things after getting about 2/3rds the way through.

I remember lots of Xcom style 95% chance of hitting misses when playing that game. I think I said to myself that I'd come back after they patched it and never touched it again.

I hope they announce a new xcom game soon. I played that Phoenix Project when it released on steam a few months back but just felt like an inferior xcom in everyway. Though i did really like the manual aiming mechanic, that was neat.

Don’t call yourself an Assassin’s Creed fan unless you’ve completed all of Lost Archive. *clap emojis*

In all seriousness that was the worst thing this franchise ever put me through, but I have a new appreciation for Clay as a character.

Rubber bullets? You're telling me this fairly experienced Yakuza couldn't tell he was firing rubber bullets when he went into that ramen shop? Cripes, I like these games, but sometimes the writing is just idiotic.

They dropped the trailer for the Mortal Kombat movie. And I lost all interest and hype when I realized Generic MMA OC Dude is gonna be the focus.

You had one freaking job, movie. You got like 30 years worth of characters, and you shaft us by making this generic ass the focus. Cripes.

After days of grinding this stupid fucking fungus in cure mode plauge inc I now want to install a Totalitarian world wide dictatorship that executes anyone on the spot if the whine about "muh panic".

update i did it

Start where ever you want.

Get investigate outbreaks, government partnerships and, deploy field operatives.

Go hop around to India, China, Russia, Central Africa, West Africa, East Africa, Brazil, and Bolivia.

You should find the starter nation at this point sooner or later.

When found, stay there and do not buy anything until it's been analysed.

When it has been analysed, buy Vaccine Research, Accelerated Research, Global Research Treaty and, Field Research.

Pray that you get patient zero.

Buy all the manufacturing shit

Via the PPE tree, get Improve Supply Chains.

When authority gets low, use censorship and when that wheres off, use fake news.

While you are at it, get all three authority upgrades, you will need them.

Do the bypass safety thing too when its nearing the end of research.

pray you get it released as soon as possible.

You may have like two authority left but it is possible to do this in a short amount of time, in game days wise.

Completed Little Nightmares 1 and 2. Both fun games, if some times a bit frustrating. Thought the second one was a lot better, and was a good deal longer too.

Also the art style and atmosphere of these games is easily the best part. Soo many creepy designs and locations, really unsettling.

Apparently some people on Twitter are mad that Chun-Li isn't going to be in the MK movie. Even though she's from street fighter....
