I also get it its a PITA to relearn a new way to do something& the frustration of going from god skill to peasant so patience is required if you deem it a valuable enough pursuit to learn. Me personally cutting the cord was more important than comfort.Īnd as I said GIMP 2.99 is NIGHT & DAY - if you haven't lived in it for a day or two you really are missing out on being presently apprised to the situation & completely new UX - but hey maybe you got better things to do? No sweat, just know things have been changing & happening & the git activity has been marching forward steady despite the mammoth scope. I think it's important to remember neither GIMP are that 1:1 and temper expectations and if you have to use PS for work just do it using a dedicated PS shitbox. I too would pay big bucks for a 1:1 Photoshop equivalent - $1,000.00 Krita is quite good and has PS-esk design elements like which I find very comfortable. GIMP has come a long way and still has a ways to go yet.īut Its no stretch that what you wrote is your opinion and not representative of all Linux Graphic people. Thankfully they are stupid enough to do a SaaS model and will be doing it to themselves aswell.Īs I said before, as a fellow designer I'm sympathetic. I haven't been holding my breath on Adobe, infact I gave up long ago - from watching Adobe's behavior and having known several employees I am convinced that they border on hostile to us and we must buff our tools to dethrone them. This guy Davies Media Design also has some great free & paid tutorials & classes on how to navigate "the GIMP" Thus my willingness to throw money at whatever until I can go from crap tools to awesome tools. I too share your frustration & pain of GIMP - over the last 10 years as a web dev I have been "dipping into the pool" and with some heavy modifications it's bearable I guess. While not a direct response to your comment, hopefully some of that was intriguing & useful. This Inkscape news peaked my interest too about a "Shape Builder" in the works GIMP-git or 2.99.x is considerably less visually offensive in the professional space and considerably more joyful to use than 2.10Ī while ago Pixeluvo was worth following but has since been unmaintained - still a good price for an effective, simple & fast crop, color, and text editor for those with little time. Still it's kindof like prolonging the inevitable. It takes a while to ween off the CC juice - in the meantime I heard people are happy with this: One day the trials will end and we shall rise above all, but use the systems of the squids and krill for what you need and only for what you need, and persevere in the hope of the future. Even if persecuted in this way, as long as one believes in the supremacy of Linux, one may become a member of the Linux Master Race. This is an unfortunate fact, and it may force many penguins to use the crude systems of the seafood.

This room also contains five small aquariums that are filled with various coral and flora species, these aquariums have pipe exits in them so are presumably for the purpose of enriching the circulating water with plant and coral matter. This room's purpose is to pump cool, oxygen-rich water from the surface biomes into the aquarium, and remove the oxygen-deprived water, maintaining a stable environment for the Sea Emperor Leviathan. The unimplemented Shuttlebug egg can also be found in this room.Īlthough this room is not huge, the pipes originating from it cover tens of thousands of meters. As such, the laboratory contains many eggs from the local life forms, forty-three eggs are kept here in total, including one Sea Emperor Leviathan egg and two Sea Dragon Leviathan eggs. The purpose of this laboratory was to study the hatching processes of local life form's eggs in order to find out how to hatch the Sea Emperor Leviathan eggs. This laboratory is accessed through the middle door on the right side of the antechamber. Further information on these relics can be found here: Alien Relics. The Antechamber also has many specimen cases containing artifacts the Precursors collected, most originating from other alien races.Ī collection of eleven relics are kept in the Primary Containment Facility, with one of human origin, some of Precursor origin, but most from other, unidentified alien species. At the far end of the Antechamber is another door blocked by a force field that leads to the Moonpool Room, along with its respective Forcefield Control, requiring a Blue Tablet. Accessed by ramps on either side of the entrance to the facility, another doorway can be seen, this door leads to the "Dissection Lab". There are six doorways around the sidewalls of the Antechamber, the four doors positioned at diagonals lead to Arch rooms, the middle left door leading to the "Pipe Room", and the right to the "Egg Laboratory". Around this pillar are cases containing the Alien Relics, five on each side. Every time the deposit on it is completely depleted the pillar will rise up and, after a while, fabricate a new deposit, after which the pillar will lower back down. A large pillar, called the Ion Cube Fabricator, lies in the center of the chamber, which is used to create Large Ion Cube Deposits. It is huge and roughly octagonal in shape. The first room in the Primary Containment Facility. But the aquarium was not a suitable environment for the eggs to hatch which was built to match the ideal environment for an adult Sea Emperor Leviathan, which differ from the ideal conditions for a juvenile Emperor, causing the eggs to go into a form of natural stasis for a seemingly indefinite amount of time, kept alive by the Incubator. Five of the eggs that the Sea Emperor Leviathan was found with were placed in the Incubator Device to stimulate the hatching process as it was deduced that the young would be a more viable source of the cure, rather than their parent who was weak. Over time, the aquarium became a thriving ecosystem with the Sea Emperor Leviathan at the heart. However, as creatures began migrating into it via the Arches, they brought with them flora seeds along with loose sand and mud. The aquarium section was originally all inorganic with two Alien Arches set up inside, one leading back into the Antechamber's moonpool and another leading to just outside the Quarantine Enforcement Platform. It was built to contain the Sea Emperor Leviathan after it was discovered that it was immune to the Kharaa Bacterium. Five Sonic Deterrent devices can be found in the area around the base, preventing attacks on the facility from the native fauna. The Primary Containment Facility, like the other Alien Bases, was built a little under one thousand years ago. The Primary Containment Facility requires the Blue Tablet to unlock, which is found in the Alien Thermal Plant. There are two entrances to the Lava Lakes containing the Primary Containment Facility co-ordinates are -300 -1270 -150 and 90 -1240 360, southeast, and directly north of the Lava Castle, respectively. It was built by the Precursor Race around one thousand years ago and is home to the last remaining Sea Emperor Leviathan, along with the five remaining Sea Emperor Leviathan Eggs. The Primary Containment Facility, also known as the Emperor Containment Facility, Sea Emperor Prison or merely the Prison, is an Alien Base located within the Lava Lakes that serves as the final major story location.

The type of gel created is dependent on how much gelatin you use. If purchasing gelatin sheets, I would recommend the silver grade, since they’re the most common in professional recipes and have an intermediate level bloom strength. If you’re interested in working with gelatin sheets but your local supermarket only carries powder, you can easily purchase them on, in their various grades. 1 powder sachet = 3 tsp of gelatine = 4 leaves of gelatine Tips: always add gelatine to liquid, not the other way around. How much powder in one sachet of gelatine?Įach pack contains 3 individual 12g sachets of powdered gelatine – each sachet is sufficient to set 500ml (two cups) of liquid. So if a recipe calls for one teaspoon of gelatin, you can use one teaspoon of agar powder and this will set one cup of liquid. How much agar-agar replaces gelatin sheets?Īgar Ratios As a general rule, you can substitute powdered agar for gelatin in equal amounts. Stir until the gelatin is dissolved and everything is combined. Boil 3 cups (675 milliliters) of juice, then pour it over the gelatin-juice. Pour two packets of unflavored gelatin over 1 cup (225 milliliters) of juice. One packet (1 tablespoon) of powdered gelatin is equivalent to four gelatin sheets. You can convert the measurements to meet your needs. Substituting One for the Other If your recipe calls for gelatin leaves or sheets but you only have powder (or vice versa), don’t worry. Can you use gelatin sheets instead of powder? This is enough to soft-set 2 cups of liquid. Substituting One for the Other You can convert the measurements to meet your needs. In other words, if you need 2 teaspoons of gelatin, use 2 teaspoons of powdered agar agar. Generally, agar agar powder can replace gelatin at a 1:1 ratio. The gelatin sheets we use in the US, which are imported from Europe come in four bloom strengths: Platinum 235 – 265 each sheet weighs 1.7g. Wring gently to remove excess water, than add to warm liquid, stirring until dissolved. (Figure about 1 cup, 250ml, cold water per sheet.) -Once soft, lift sheets from the cold water. Soak sheet(s) of gelatin in a bowl cold water for 5 to 10 minutes. How much is 3 leaves of gelatine in powder?Īs a simple rule: 1 leaf titanium gelatine = 3 leaves gold gelatine = 2 teaspoons (6.6g) powdered gelatine and will set one cup of liquid to a firm jelly. Whichever you choose, remember it must be fully dissolved - follow the recipe or packet instructions. As a general rule, two gelatine leaves is equivalent to one teaspoon of powdered gelatine. Powdered and leaf gelatine are usually interchangeable, but for best results try to use the type specified in the recipe. How do I substitute gelatin for powdered gelatin? 1 (0.25 oz.) envelope granulated gelatin = 1 tablespoon powdered gelatin = 3 sheets leaf gelatin. This gelatin is 225 bloom and can be converted to sheet gelatin pretty easily. What is the ratio of powdered gelatin to sheet gelatin?īut for most of us the first gelatin we used was store bought granulated gelatin. 7 How much powder in one sachet of gelatine?. 6 Can you use gelatin sheets instead of powder?.5 How many gelatin packets equal a sheet?.4 What is a substitute for gelatin powder?.3 How much is 3 leaves of gelatine in powder?.2 How do I substitute gelatin for powdered gelatin?.1 What is the ratio of powdered gelatin to sheet gelatin?. The Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio are eloquent equations, but they aren't as magical as they may seem. In 1877, French mathematician Édouard Lucas officially named the rabbit problem "the Fibonacci sequence," Devlin said. In fact, it was mostly forgotten until the 19th century, when mathematicians worked out more about the sequence's mathematical properties. But after a few scant paragraphs on breeding rabbits, Leonardo of Pisa never mentioned the sequence again. "Liber Abaci" first introduced the sequence to the Western world. Read more: 9 equations that changed the world The answer, it turns out, is 144 - and the formula used to get to that answer is what's now known as the Fibonacci sequence. (Ignore the wildly improbable biology here.) After a year, how many rabbits would you have? A month later, those rabbits reproduce and out comes - you guessed it - another male and female, who also can mate after a month. After a month, they mature and produce a litter with another male and female rabbit. The problem goes as follows: Start with a male and a female rabbit. In one place in the book, Leonardo of Pisa introduces the sequence with a problem involving rabbits. Written for tradesmen, "Liber Abaci" laid out Hindu-Arabic arithmetic useful for tracking profits, losses, remaining loan balances and so on, he added. However, in 1202 Leonardo of Pisa published the massive tome "Liber Abaci," a mathematics "cookbook for how to do calculations," Devlin said.

That's because you started out with 240p and line doubled it first.Ģ40 alternatiing scanlines aka 480i interlaced "State A"Ģ40 alternating scanlines aka 480i interlaced "State B"Įliminate the offset and the numbered alternating scanlines from State A and State B will be the original 240p. When you line double 240p to 480p, use a scan converter to interlace the 480p to 480i, and use the Extron RGB trick to eliminate the field offset: you get proper 240p. Orange808 wrote:Here's an experiment if you have the gear to do it. Need to disable the filtering and output 240p natively. What OP wants and needs is a proper ROM hack. I'm pretty sure there's some kind of filter being applied on Street Fighter Anniversary-and the PS2 does that with the full buffered frame before it gets interlaced. Most of these PS2 games don't output a true line doubled 240p, so the fields don't perfectly match. For instance, when you switch to a proper scaler instead of initially line doubling, the output turns into a hot mess. my example was more about making a point. You'll also have to get the image sized just right.Īlthough. I don't remember the necessary flicker filter settings. That's a "feature" of its anti flicker filtering, where the VSC makes sure that two adjacent fields actually match. The interface somehow shifts the active image part by half a line and as result most CRTs will interpretate the signal as 240p instead.Ģ40p -> OSSC -> 480p -> Extron VSC unit -> 480i -> Extron RGB -> CRT (240p)ĭangerous, since the VSC can actually half the motion phases from 60 to 30 if set correctly (or incorrectly). Sometimes you can see this after (improper) deinterlacing. Interlaced video starts in the middle of the first line, while progressive video starts at the beginning of the first line. The RGB interface does output the exactly same fields or frames it receives. The interface can't tell if that's true 60Hz interlaced or if the fields match to create 30 full frames (PAL video sourced from movies works like this: 50 fields from 25 frames created using a 2:2 cadence). If windows does indeed output 30 frames, it still segmented into 60 fields (otherwise it would be 480p30 and not 480i60). I guess that I would need to understand how they converted the 240p game to 480i before I understand how the interface undoes their mistake. It's thinking about how the same method can be used to convert 480i to 240p that makes my head hurt. I understand how the double strike method of 240p works. Can it really double the FPS and halve the res with a timing delay? With 480i, the computer is outputting 30 full frames per second and 480 lines. I struggle to understand what the interface is actually doing with the line offset. I believe the PS2 outputs a real interlaced 480 line 60hz. I am going to try it with the PS2 to see if it makes a difference. Perhaps the line offset didn't help because the original signal was 30hz (producing 240p / 30hz instead of 60). It seems to try and output it as 480p / 30hz which comes out as a flickering mess. Windows has a weird way of treating 480i. I was never able to make it look like real 240p. Now that I think about it, I have only tried the RGB interface 240p method with 480i from Windows. After all there's no actual difference between 480i and 240p, except for half a line on top which tells your CRT how to display it. Of course you get real 240p once you have the Extron alter the field offset. One field has 240 lines.Ģ40p has 60 frames per second. Fudoh wrote:480i has 60 fields per second. So we had this fifteen foot long circular tube of that stuff, and we had the bass drum at one end of it and the microphone at the other. Plus one other thing we did to fatten up the sound was, you know when they make concrete supports for bridges? Well, they have a mold that they pour the concrete into. It wreaks havoc on the guitarist's hands because it's like playing high-tension cables (laughs), but I guess they both built up a kind of resistance after two weeks of playing ten hours a day (laughs). He came to me and said I have this sound I can get on the guitar, but what we have to do to get it is put the skinny string from the bass guitar on the E string of the guitar, and then increase all the gauges appropriately through the rest of the scale. Uh, and I guess it helps when you put bass strings on your freakin' guitars! We discussed a sonic concept for the album, just the idea that this album should be really heavy, just in terms of the tone of it." And that's very much Roy growing as a producer and having the confidence to make decisions. "You can hear the development in the sound, just the physical sound of the way the guitars have been handled. "Well, that's one way of putting it!" says Bruce enthusiastically, beginning the sermon. Bruce, Roy Z, Adrian Smith, Eddie Casillias and David Ingraham is the metal marriage from Hell. Your ears shall hear sweet justice, retribution and inspired sonic craft, as this particular set of deafening nuptials tops the playlists of writers and fans alike throughout the latter part of '98. Well, Maiden now has something sillier out called Virtual XI, and Bruce is about to stage The Chemical Wedding. That one politely but proudly, put to shame an Iron Maiden abomination called The X Factor. It's been merely a year since ex-Maiden banshee Bruce Dickinson graced the punted metal world with a little, loud record called Accident Of Birth. Step somewhere back in time as Dickinson guides through the thought process of his solo classic. We hop back to September/October 1998 (issue #25) where our Martin Popoff caught up with the esteemed Bruce Dickinson to talk about his new solo album, The Chemical Wedding, and we also pried his brain about past Iron Maiden albums. In celebration of our 25th anniversary, we are digging deep into the BraveWords archives and blowing the dust off some classic features that ran in Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles magazine! The difference between LGPL and GPL is that in the case of LGPL, developers can borrow, modify, and re-distribute that code as part of their own project, so long as that part of the code is relicensed under the LGPL. AetherSX2 does not have advertisements, and it doesn't even have internet access. Given that there are already apps purporting to be AetherSX2 out there, this argument does make sense. You will also be able "to relink the combined shared library as required by the license with the provided object file." No Java source code will be made public, according to Tahlreth, and the reason given is to prevent clones from being stuffed full of advertisements and in-app purchases. For example, Ratchet: Gladiator (known as Ratchet: Deadlocked in the U.S.) wasn't playable on release and would crash after completing the first cutscene before a later update.įor those looking for source code, Tahlreth shared on Reddit that the LGPL portions will be available on request. As already mentioned, we tested it while it was still in alpha, so your mileage may vary on performance. There are a lot of great features in AetherSX2, including internal resolution scaling, save states, multiple control schemes, and more. You can play games either using Vulkan or OpenGL, depending on which performs best on your device, and you can hot-swap between the two while in-game. To run AetherSX2, you'll need a 64-bit device, and the chipset must have "big" performance cores (the developer recommends at least a Snapdragon 845). While AetherSX2 uses PCSX2 code, the developers of PCSX2 have given AetherSX2 their graces, explaining that, in essence, its core code is LGPLv3-licensed. One is Play!, a high-level emulator that doesn't require a BIOS to run, and the other is in violation of the license agreement of PCSX2. There are really only two alternative emulators out there for PlayStation 2 emulation. AetherSX2 is the best way to play PlayStation 2 games on your phone |
