comp modding/upgrading feedback
2009-06-08 10:14 PM PDT
I will leave a feedback of the work I'm doing on my comp, the hardware changes basically. Since that's an unfinished work, I will be completing this entry as I'm working on it...
--> That's my worktable
Entry one. 06/09/2009
That's a work I did weeks ago in fact, but now I decided to blog it. When I came from my last home because of reforms to my parent's house, and I had to thoroughly clean my desktop comp becasue of all that shit it was accumulating. I used the fact of having to disarm it completely for adding some improvements.
First I had to repair a hard drive my mother broke by unpluggin it from the corrent with all her brightness... (I taken it like a "gift" for coming back to home ¬¬ )
--> my broken Western Digital 600 Gb SATA unit (right)
I must to say I love Iomega (the publishers on this case) guys, becuse they entrusted me another unit in replacement. I asked them for keeping my damaged unit to try to salve some lost data. They said they do not afford data recovery costs but they agreed with trying to resque it by my own way, and finally I did not just recover my data back but I made my damaged hard drive funtional again B)
Since the problem was produced by a electricity mistake, I knew its magnetical discs whoulnd't be phisically damaged but some integred circuit got fused. It had its SATA board wrong (the circuit that transfers the 4-pins HDD connection into a standard SATA signal), so I was able to slave it on another external drive, using another SATA circuit. Then, I kept it into an old's Elements case.
Second steep, I added a dual fan to my main HDD:
I modified its alluminium box, using an extra slot for slave discs for this kind of ventilation. Once built, hot air is erased by frontal airholes, behind the ON-LED-button:
--> that hole, dessigned to be a passive vent, now works like an active airhole (fans are behind the holey wall)
Then, comes my graphic card. It's really just a temporal change, since I know my old nVidia...

Two years on Last Chaos
2009-01-04 10:17 AM PST
Hello all potencial readers. Since the last 1 of January I can say that I'm on Last Chaos since 2 years ago. Yes, for anybody who know me, he will know that now I can speak about this game as Game Sage. But above all I can speak like a player who has seen born and growing up this great MMORPG
Well, I don't want this blog may seem cheap advertising... In fact, this medieval sword and magic 3D MMORPG has his glitchs... Who has played it will know about what I'm sepeaking. But so why I'm still there? Well, that's a good question. And the answer is the community. I really played a good amount of MMOPRG's, as the role games (online or not) are my favourite style; I played several online games too. You can check this on my profile, but I played many others before been recognized by xFire (so don't appear on the hour - counter). The point is that I never seen so "real" community, with all the good and and the bad that it has... There aren't two "bands", "sides" or any similar stuff: there only are the friendship and rivalry between players, guilds. People that figths with his friends agains their enemies, against who was their friend and aren't now, too. And this is what changes the face of Iris (the world of Last Chaos).
You can read the history here , but you will need to log in to understand what I mean, if you don't yet.
And finally, and this is for PRO gamers, I can guess what you 're thinking: "it happens on each beta, then it turns commercial and the game sucks". Well, I'm realistic: LC is not a beta, so you will find players reaching an high lvl without getting to know really the game, then leaving... Even players that seem "austistic machines" (and I don't mean boots). It will happens always, rigth. But if you scratch a little deeper on Last Chaos, you will find the real "gamers" (attention: it doesn't means always a "good person", just a "gamer" lol). Trust me
You can find Last Chaos (and other online...
Estreno de mi blog: testeando Rohan Onli...
2008-06-03 8:12 AM PDT
Bueno, parece ser que ya era hora de estrenar el blog del Xfire... Así que me he animado aprovechando el testeo del Rohan. De momento parece un buen mmorpg: buenos gráficos, estética tipo Lineage 2, PvP estable con posesión de Towns y sistema de venganza al ser pkeado, etc. Fallos (a mi ver): pese a existir razas diversas, cada una solo puede especializarse en dos ramas, las cuales no suelen diferenciarse sustancialemente entre si (si eres humano vas a ser tanque, si eres dark elf vas a ser mago, etc) y el sistema de skills es un skill por lvl, impidiendo el perfeccionamiento del char. Pese a eso habrá que darle una oportunidad... Veamos lo estable que es una vez funcionando y si es el típico mmorpg injugable por la cantidad de noobs que lo moran o si va cogiendo interés con el tiempo.
