Disney Dreamlight Valley: Village Project Timeless Treasures


In the new Disney Dreamlight Valley “A Rift In Time” expansion you unlock a completely new world with the Island of Eternity and of course there are also some new quests. This includes, among other things, a village project quest from the good Merlin called “Timeless Treasures”. In this short guide we show what you have to do in the Timeless Treasures village project and where you get the materials to make the furniture.

Village Project Timeless Treasures

  1. After talking to Merlin you will receive the Table of Time. You have to place the Table of Time somewhere on the Island of Eternity using your inventory (preferably next to your own house on the island so that you can easily find the table again).
  2. Merlin then gives you the order to make any furniture you want. If you have already found some materials, you should already have unlocked some furniture recipes at the Table of Time. For crafting you now need the appropriate materials such as ancient pipe and quartz, but also gemstones such as blue zircon, honeycomb stone or jade gemstone. Like in Dreamlight Valley, you can mine the gemstones from the ore deposits with the pickaxe, and you can get the other materials with the hourglass by looking for hidden treasures. The hidden treasures keep spawning and with the “location function” in the form of the light arc above the hourglass, you can track them down relatively easily (blue arc = far away, yellow arc = close, orange arc = very close).
  3. With the piece of furniture you have made, you can then go back to Merlin and complete the Timeless Treasures village project.

Tip: Generate a visit code with the Valleyversum and invite friends or visit their valleys with friends’ code.

Level up EA FC 24 Pro Clubs quickly


The new EA Sports FC 24 includes all the well-known game modes from its predecessors and of course this also includes the Pro Clubs mode. In Pro Clubs you can compete with up to 10 other players against a team against eleven other real players. To do this, you first have to create your own player and can then level him up, unlock new attributes through skill points and improve the Pro. In order to get skill points, you first have to level up for a while and one or two players are probably asking themselves the question, how can you level up quickly in FC 24 Pro Clubs? Similar to the predecessor, is there a Volta Glitch with which you can quickly farm experience points?

Level up quickly and farm XP in Pro Clubs

Even though the Volta glitch from FIFA 23 Pro Clubs no longer works in FC 24 Pro Clubs, the Volta game mode is still a very good option for quickly leveling up. What some players may not know yet, you can also play Volta with players from Pro Clubs. To do this, you simply have to import the player into Volta as an avatar and the experience points and levels collected there will then also be transferred to Pro Clubs. Since the Volta “team” games bring a lot of experience points and the games are relatively short at 6 minutes, you can level up much faster than playing in normal pro clubs. For every game you get more than 1,000 XP (even more for goals) and even for a defeat you get another 700 XP.

By collecting the milestones you get additional XP, which you can use to level up and get more skill points. If you don’t feel like playing Volta, you can also play the spontaneous games and the weekly skill games, where you can also farm and level up XP.

Go AFK and level players

As mentioned, the Volta glitch from last year was already fixed in FIFA 23 and no longer works in FC 24 either. However, many players are taking advantage of the new “AFK glitch”. All you have to do is join a Volta game, somehow jam the left analog stick so that the player runs and being AFK will automatically give you experience points after every game. We would of course advise against this method, as it will destroy the game for other players. Unfortunately, especially recently, we have seen an increasing number of players leveling up their Pro Clubs players using this method.

Tip: This is how you can invite your friends and play together in EA FC 24 Pro Clubs.

Fae Farm: Find and prepare pickled seafood

Where can you actually find the sea creatures in the new Fae Farm? How to prepare the pickled seafood? One or two players of the new cozy game, who are supposed to prepare some pickled seafood for shipping orders, may have been thinking about these two questions in the last few days. Normally the preparation of the dishes is very simple. You collect the ingredients, then throw everything in a pot on the stove and prepare it. But when it comes to pickled seafood, the question often arises as to where you can actually prepare the seafood.

Prepare pickled seafood

In order to be able to prepare the pickled seafood, you first have to play for a while. To be more precise, you have to play until you have completed the burn caves and unlocked the “hit” spell. With the hit spell you can destroy the large, fragile stones in the game world and not only unlock the “Frozen Farm” area, but also open the way to an island in the south of the lingering bay, through which you can get the fish for the pickled sea creatures can catch (see screenshot). For the pickled seafood you need a puffer fish.

From 1x puffer fish you can then prepare 4x cut seafood on the kitchen worktop, which can then be processed into the pickled seafood on the kitchen animal. From 25x cut seafood you can make 1x pickled seafood.

Cancel shipping order for the sea creatures?

As mentioned above, the pickled seafood is actually only required for shipping orders. The problem is that you accept shipping orders early in the game, but then you can’t find the required ingredients because you haven’t progressed far enough in the story yet. Since you cannot cancel the shipping orders, all you have to do is wait until the time expires.

Fae Farm: Attach and change windows


In the new Fae Farm you can expand the house as the story progresses and add additional floors and rooms. In the house you can then design the rooms as you wish with different furniture, including windows. Anyone who has just made a window may be wondering, how do you attach and change the windows on the house? Why don’t the windows show up under the furniture?

Change windows

If you want to set up furniture in the house, you have to press the control pad down in the house and open construction mode. However, in build mode, the windows are not displayed directly under the categories. To attach the windows you have to stand against the wall with construction mode activated. The wall should then light up and you can attach a “wall decoration”. In addition to pictures, the wall decorations also include the windows. In the same way you can change the windows in Fae Farm, remove them or replace them with another window.

Make windows

The windows can be made using the appropriate materials at the crafting table. Window production primarily requires wood such as oak and of course glass. In addition to simple windows, there are also windows in different shapes and with additional decorations such as a bookcase or plants.

Window materials
Simple window
  • 1x oak timber
  • 1x glass
Chic arched window
  • 1x oak timber
  • 1x glass
Bookcase window
  • 1x oak timber
  • 1x glass
Simple arched window
  • 1x oak timber
  • 1x glass
Simple arched window with plants
  • 1x oak timber

ElevenLabs AI for Voice Synthesis and Cloning


As we move closer to 2023, the topic of Generative AI cannot be avoided when discussing technological breakthroughs. Whether it’s AI programming solutions, local LLMs, or AI image generators, this technology has invaded every aspect of life, with organizations scrambling to use this cutting-edge technology. ElevenLabs, a startup focusing in AI-enabled voice cloning and speech synthesis, is at the forefront of these technological revolutions. You may use ElevenLabs AI to convert text into surprisingly natural speech and produce an incredibly accurate voice clone. This article will walk you through the steps.

 

Using ElevenLabs AI for Text-to-Speech Conversion

Individual users can access ElevenLabs’ services for free. Every month, you can convert up to 10,000 characters of text into speech with this free plan. Furthermore, the platform enables speech production in a variety of languages and accents. Here’s how you can put this AI-powered tool to use:

 

To create a free account, go to the ElevenLabs website and click the “Sign up” button.

After registering, you will be led to the Speech Synthesis page. Preview multiple voices in the Settings section and choose the one that best suits you.

You are then given the choice of selecting an audio model. Choose Eleven Monolingual v1 if your text is entirely in English. Choose “Eleven Multilingual v1” for multilingual text in English, German, Hindi, Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, or Polish.

Next, enter your text and press the “Generate” button to instruct ElevenLabs AI to convert it to speech.

In this example, I used Sam’s voice to generate speech from a sample text. By pressing the “Download” button, you can save the created speech in MP3 format.

The application also lets you to enter text in another language, allowing for faultless speech production. In this instance, remember to select the “Multilingual” model from the drop-down selection.

 

You can also use ElevenLabs AI to clone your voice, as demonstrated later in this article. The Voice Library also has a large selection of voice samples in diverse accents.

You can add a voice by clicking “Add to VoiceLab” next to your chosen speech sample. In this case, I’ve added a young male voice with a British accent.

Finally, select the voice from the drop-down menu and start the speech. You’re finished!

ElevenLabs AI is being used for voice cloning.

Voice cloning is becoming increasingly popular, with many Instagram and TikTok users using the technology to mimic the sounds of celebrities such as Obama, Drake, and others. While ElevenLabs previously provided free voice cloning, consumers must now pay a $5 fee to produce up to ten personalized voices. For those that choose not to pay, there are free alternatives like as PlayHT. In this lesson, I’ll clone my own voice using ElevenLabs AI.

 

Begin by selecting “Voice Lab” from the top menu. Then, select Add Generic or Cloned Voice.

Continue by selecting Instant Voice Cloning.

Next, give your voice a name and upload your recorded sounds. Make sure the recording is free of distracting background noise. It is recommended that you submit at least 5 minutes of audio for effective speech synthesis. Enter a description and click the “Add Voice” button.

Your voice clone will be ready to use after a little delay. Click “Use” to use your new voice to convert text to speech.

Confirm that your voice is selected in the drop-down option. Now, enter your text and press the Generate button. The speech is synthesized and the audio is generated after a few seconds. You may also download the audio.

Unfortunately, despite uploading a 5-minute audio recording, ElevenLabs AI was not totally successful in duplicating my voice in my experience. Perhaps the requirement to add more audio samples and retrain the model played a role. It could also be because the AI model generated the output in English (US), rather than localizing the accent for India. Another aspect that could have contributed to the poor quality of my audio sample is background noise. Regardless, ElevenLabs AI remains an exciting effort in the world of artificial intelligence, and we’ll keep an eye on its progress in the field of speech synthesis.

Google Chrome on iOS: New Features Unveiled!


For a long time, Google’s Chrome browser has been steadily raising its bar. Google has gained significant popularity among iPhone users thanks to the ability to easily set Chrome as the default iOS browser. If you use Google Chrome as your primary web browser on iOS, get ready for a spectacular update that will completely transform your experience. Continue reading for more fascinating information!

Chrome Takes a Quantum Leap Forward on iOS!

Google Chrome’s version 114.0.5735.124 upgrade now includes the option to access a variety of Google services directly within the program, eliminating the need to exit. This suggests that Chrome is no longer just another third-party browser; rather, it is turning into an indispensable “multi-tool” for the iOS community.

This means that clicking on an address will no longer redirect you to Google Maps. If you want to plan a Calendar reminder, you don’t have to do it completely using the Google Calendar app. You may also enjoy real-time text translation right within the Chrome app. This improved feature considerably improves the Google Chrome app’s attractiveness among iOS users. The need to clog your iPhone with various Google apps just to use the Google browser is no longer necessary.

Increasing the Scope of Integrated Applications

Google Lens will be added to its list of connected apps in the near future. This enables you to use your iPhone camera to recognize objects, translate signage, and explore further. Nonetheless, it’s important to note that these “convenience” features have limitations. You will still need to access these apps individually for more complex activities. To enable the driving mode, for example, you’d need to launch the Google Maps app, and to add certain events to your calendar, you’d need the Calendar app, and so on.

The current integration is intended to improve your digital lifestyle while reducing the burden on your iPhone battery. This is a significant improvement than running many apps in the background at the same time.

Payday 3 has already announced its most important update after release


This is what Payday 3 will look like when it is released in September.

As of this week we finally know more about Payday 3: The co-op stealth shooter, in which you and up to three friends rob banks, jewelers and other places, will be released in mid-September 2023.

Gameplay, which is immediately reminiscent of the enormously successful predecessor, was also shown for the first time in the following trailer:

If you are now thinking: Yes, awesome, that looks so good! – then we have really good news for you. Because the developers have published an FAQ on their website that gives hope for much, much better optics.

Payday 3: Unreal Engine 5 is firmly planned

On their website, the developers from Starbreeze Studios answer some of the most important questions about their upcoming game.

The question of which engine Payday 3 is actually being developed in is particularly exciting. According to Starbreeze, the co-op shooter will initially appear in Unreal Engine 4. However, an upgrade to Unreal Engine 5 is already firmly planned:

We started developing the game on the Unreal 4, so it makes the most sense for us to release it that way. We plan to upgrade to Unreal Engine 5 after release.

Epic Games has already impressively proven with Fortnite that such a graphics upgrade can actually work. In other cases, however, such an engine jump has already caused major problems, such as with the controversial shooter The Day Before.

What else has been announced? The graphics were of course not the only topic in the developer FAQ. For example, it was revealed that the game will take place in New York and that the well-known gang consisting of Dallas, Chains, Hoxton and Wolf will return.

There was also initial information about the Season Pass: Similar to the predecessor, there will again be heaps of DLCs that will contain new heists, skins and weapons. The Silver Season Pass that you get with the Silver Edition includes all DLCs that appear six months after release. With the Gold Edition, it is the first twelve months.

Ten years after its release, Payday 2 offers more than 80 DLCs priced between 3 and 7 euros – so if Payday 3 can show a similar longevity, the Season Passes are probably just a drop in the bucket.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6: Certification reveals processor


With the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in July, reports have surfaced about the next generation of Galaxy devices. As for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 (Pro), it is very likely that the final processor for the upcoming Galaxy smartwatches has been decided.

The processor for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6

Over a month ago it was reported that Samsung could equip the Galaxy Watch 6 with a new Exynos W980 chipset. This processor is said to offer a small speed boost compared to the W920 SoC that powers the current Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 5 series.

Based on the new Bluetooth certification uncovered by well-known leaker Tech_Reve, the chip will feature Bluetooth 5.3 and will go by the product name S5E5515. Of course, the SoC will be built into the W930 model instead of the W980 model that was previously rumored. And that’s very fitting, too, given the alleged small improvements.

It’s still unclear what advantages the processor has over the W920, aside from the 10 percent CPU speed increase. However, it is speculated that it will be made using the same 5nm manufacturing process but with more efficient lithography or binning. Ultimately, this could lead to better battery life for the Galaxy Watch 6. A goal that pretty much every smartwatch on the market is pursuing. This is what the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 could look like when it comes to onleaks

Aside from the processor, other certifications have indicated that the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 duo will come with bigger batteries. The Pro model, on the other hand, should get the rotating bezel back. They will run the new “One UI 5 Watch OS” based on Android 13, while the loading speed is said to be identical to its predecessors.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is expected to be unveiled at the company’s next Unpacked event in late July in South Korea. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 as well as the more robust Galaxy Tab S9 will also be presented at the same event.

With these new features, do you intend to buy the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 this year? Share your answers with us in the comments below.

Summary

  • Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 gets Exynos W980 chipset with Bluetooth 5.3 & S5E5515 product name.
  • CPU speed increased by 10%, 5nm manufacturing process, more efficient lithography/binning.
  • Larger batteries & rotating bezel for Pro model.
  • Runs on One UI 5 Watch OS based on Android 13.
  • Expected presentation at the Samsung Unpacked Event at the end of July.
  • Improved battery life possible.
  • Are you buying the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6?

Wait or space? Climate policy is stuck


Good evening,

something might work at Saturn. Researchers have found that there is phosphorus in the ocean of Saturn’s moon Enceladus. The element is a key building block for the origin of life and was first discovered in an ocean beyond Earth. The authors of the study published in the journal “Nature” are correspondingly enthusiastic about the data collected by NASA’s Cassini probe.

We need to return to Enceladus to see if the habitable ocean is actually inhabited.

Well, you have to be fair. The researchers are not looking for a new planet for humanity. Their discovery is indeed a sensation – especially if there really are traces of life in the distant ocean.

Source: DLR/NASA/dpa

The main point of the debate was to insult the other. Union parliamentary group leader Jens Spahn spoke of a farce, left-wing MP Ralph Lenkert even called Habeck’s plans “puke”. Only the SPD building minister reminded that there was a problem with the climate:

It is actually far too late to replace the heating fleet.

Klara Geywitz, Federal Minister for Building

But of course there is also progress. After all, Germany has installed the most wind power in Europe. Around 28,400 wind turbines on land and another 1,500 at sea, which last year generated a total of 123 terawatt hours and thus 24.1 percent of the total gross electricity. Only coal delivers more.

Despite this, the expansion is progressing slowly. Above all, the differences in the federal states are huge, the south is lagging behind. For example, of the 551 new wind turbines last year, only 14 were built in Bavaria.

The southern Germans have climate change particularly impressive in mind. The glaciers of the Alps are melting, drought and bark beetles have destroyed entire forests, not only in neighboring Austria. What remains is rubble, brown areas, deforested slopes. And they don’t look much cozier than Saturn and its moons.

What is happiness, according to famous scientists such as Sagan, Tesla, Einstein or Hawking


Happiness. Although it is a complex and multifaceted concept, scientific research has explored different aspects and determinants of happiness. According to the doctor in psychology Sonja Lyubomirsky points out that happiness can be defined as “a subjective state of general well-being and satisfaction with life, which implies positive emotions and a positive evaluation of the circumstances and the meaning of life”.

What is happiness, according to famous scientists such as Tesla, Einstein or HawkingMidjourney/Sarah Romero

Happiness can be understood through three main components: a) positive emotions: experiences of joy, gratitude, serenity and enthusiasm; b) Satisfaction with life: global and subjective cognitive evaluation of life in terms of goal fulfillment, meaning and purpose and c) psychological well-being: which includes aspects such as self-acceptance, autonomy, positive relationships and personal growth.

Today we delve into this important word in the lives of humans and we remember what happiness is for famous scientists throughout history.

“What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” – Jane Goodall, ethologist

“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more so we can fear less.” – Marie Curiechemistry and physics

“To me I am just a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me.” – Isaac Newton, physicist, theologian, mathematician and inventor

“Happiness is found in the calm contemplation of nature and the deep understanding of the secrets that it reveals.” – Albert Einsteinphysical

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Be curious, and as hard as life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed.” – Stephen Hawkingphysicist, astrophysicist and science popularizer

“The first principle is that you should not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool. Happiness is the pleasure you get from understanding and creating, not from owning.” – Richard Feynmanntheoretical physicist

“For me, it is much better to understand the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.” – Carl Saganastronomer, astrophysicist, astrobiologist and science popularizer

famous scientistsMidjourney/Sarah Romero

“The gift of mental power comes from God, Divine Being, and if we focus our minds on that truth, we tune in to this great power.” – Nicholas Teslainventor and electrical and mechanical engineer

“The first requirement for happiness is that man be willing to find satisfaction in his own work.” – Sigmund Freudneurologist, father of psychoanalysis

“The problem, which is often not discovered until late age, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies that they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize that in life they create their own love, they create their own meaning, they create their own motivation. For me, I am motivated by two main philosophies, I know more about the world today than I did yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that takes you.” – Neil deGrasse Tysonastrophysicist and scientific popularizer

“A table, a chair, a fruit bowl and a violin; What else does a man need to be happy? – Albert Einsteinphysical

“You cannot aspire to build a better world without improving individuals. To that end, each of us must work for his own betterment.” – Marie Curiee, Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911

“True happiness is looking at the fossil remains and realizing that we are part of an immense line of life that extends through millions of years.” – Robert T. Bakerpaleontologist

You can now criticize your boss with complete freedom. Strasbourg confirms that if you do it with respect you cannot be fired

Few things are as Spanish as getting together with trusted colleagues and criticizing the bosses’ decisions. Nothing is solved, but the conversation over coffee is livened up. A Turkish computer engineer took that talk further, and wrote an email to the company’s Human Resources department comparing his superior to Jeff Bezos in a biting and sarcastic text.

As you can imagine, the company immediately dismissed the employee, but the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has issued a ruling that annuls that dismissal and establishes jurisprudence on how to criticize your boss without costing you your job.

The boss is not Jeff Bezos. In his email to Human Resources, the employee compared Jeff Bezos’ training and management skills with that of his boss in a sharp criticism, under the subject “Jeff Bezos against HK” (HK is the acronym for the president of the board of directors and , therefore, his boss).

In the email, which is included in the sentence, the employee compares the millionaire’s management policies with those of his boss, diametrically opposed, and compares the results of both ways of managing the company and urged Human Resources to act so that improve the labor situation of the company. “I hope these three points explain why 70% of the 500 most important companies in the world are American companies and why there is not a single Turkish company,” stated the author of the email. A disciplinary file was immediately opened against him and his dismissal was requested.

A scathing email, but constructive and without going into disqualifications. Taking care of the words you use has never made more sense than in the case of this email, and the language used has been one of the keys to tipping the balance in favor of the employee, as labor lawyer José points out in his X profile. Antonio González Espada. “The worker used harsh and sarcastic language, but without disrespect or insults, and therefore his dismissal was contrary to freedom of expression.”

Dismissal annulled unanimously. The ruling of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has made the right to freedom of expression prevail as a fundamental right and therefore deserves maximum legal protection.

The Court concedes in its ruling that “harsh and sarcastic language” was used in the email, but it did not incur insults or personal disqualifications. The ruling indicates the context of restricted dissemination in which it was sent given that it was addressed only to the personnel department and the boss, in order to put an end to the “bad atmosphere” that was being generated in the company. Therefore, the email does not represent indiscipline towards the company, but rather an act of freedom of expression protected by European laws.

A doctrine in line with the Constitutional Court. The ruling of the European Court is relevant because it elevates freedom of expression in the workplace to a fundamental right even when the management of the directive is criticized.

According to Eduardo Rojo Torrecilla, retired professor of Labor and Social Security Law at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, ​​the ruling of the Strasbourg Court reinforces the doctrine of the Constitutional Court on the special protection of the right to freedom of expression, contained in Article 20.1 of the Constitution, which has also applied when the conflict occurred in the workplace.

Rojo believes that the key is that the “criticism” meets three requirements: that it does not publicly damage the prestige of the company; the context in which it is carried out, which in this case is aimed at improving the working conditions of the entire company and is carried out privately between the Human Resources department, the boss and the employee; and the third requirement is not to incur insults, insults or personal disqualifications, which would imply a breach of people’s honor.

Through the challenges you can not only collect experience points for leveling up, but also bucks for earning money. While many of the challenges are self-explanatory, there are also one or two challenges where you don’t immediately understand what needs to be done. Some people might feel the same way about the “Liberty Run” challenge from the “Liberty Walk: A Signature Edition” playlist.

The description says “Drive from the WAIKIKI parking lot to Barbers Point Harbor in under 3 minutes. For the challenge you first have to zoom out completely on the map and zoom in to the “south” area. To the south is Honolulu and south of the city is the Waikiki Wing Hotel and in front of it is the Waikiki parking lot you are looking for, or rather a parking garage. From there we head west to the port in the town of Kalaeloa. At Barbers Point Harbor you can see a large container ship and lots of harbor cranes, so you can’t really miss the area and destination for the challenge.

To complete the challenge and receive the reward, simply drive from the parking lot or garage in Waikiki to Barbers Point Harbor to the west within 3 minutes. Even if you’re not the best driver, completing the challenge is relatively easy as the vehicle required for the challenge is quite fast in the form of the M$ Liberty Walk Edition.

Night Shyamalan as writer and director on ‘Servant’ and as second unit director on ‘Time’.

Nepobabies for the bad, but also for the good.

You have an ishana wound

If you are intrigued, wait until you find out who is in the cast, because not all directors of debut films are this lucky.

Dakota Fanning will play Mina after working with Quentin Tarantino or Ewan McGregor.

Is it time to lock ourselves in a cabin too?

This MOBA is a case in point. It closed its servers, reopened them by popular request and has just announced its closure again

What a trajectory Paragon, the MOBA from Epic Games, has had. It was originally released in 2016 offering third-person action quite unusual in the genre, but ended closing their servers because the developers were forced to move to the Fortnite team as it began to gain attention. A couple of years ago it was re-released under the nickname “Paragon: the Overprime” but things have not gone well.

The resurrection of Paragon was at the hands of Netmarble, a South Korean distributor that took advantage of the resources of the original – a game that many players of the time had grown fond of – to take over in development, and it has been in early access since 2022. However, those responsible for it have decided to end support for the game: through their official blog, they announce that on April 22 they will close the servers.

“Since launching in Early Access, Paragon: the Overprime has been a work in progress as we explored, contrasted, and thought of different ways to meet the expectations of our warriors,” the statement reads. “After careful consideration, we have concluded that we will not be able to offer stable and satisfactory service in the future.

Paragon: the Overprime has been operating in the format for two years now, bringing back the heroes of the original and introducing new cinematics and abilities. Going by SteamDB, the game has never had a particularly impressive activity count. Its historical peak is 32,524 simultaneous players on the Valve platform, which is not bad at all, but their numbers have deteriorated a lot with the passage of time.

It is not the same as Predecessor

As a reminder, Paragon’s original cancellation at the hands of Epic Games ended with the company making the game’s development resources public and free. It goes without saying that this resurrection project comes from there, but it is by no means the only one: many consider Predecessor to be superior in multiple aspects, although to be honest, its numbers are not very encouraging anyway.

FIFA 16 doesn’t start or crashes: What to do if there are problems (PC, PS4, Xbox One)


Why doesn’t FIFA 16 start or why does it crash while playing? Some buyers of FIFA 16, which was released a few hours ago for the PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360, may ask themselves this question. Today is the day that many FIFA fans have been waiting for with great excitement, because after spending the last few days playing short kick-off games in the demo, the full version has finally been released and of course it offers many more functions. Aside from the exciting career mode, you can also spend many hours playing the Ultimate Team mode or simply compete against friends or players from all over the world in the kick-off game.

Update December 24th: Apparently there is a problem at EA right now.

FIFA 16 crashes or won’t start: solutions and tips

Even though, according to current reports, the release of FIFA 16 is going very well and problems with crashes or black screens are said to be very rare, we have summarized a few possible causes and solutions that can help with problems. If FIFA 16 doesn’t start for you, crashes while playing or you have other problems, please let us know in the comments section. If there are other possible solutions or known problems, we will include them here.

Update graphics card drivers if problems occur

Every now and then there are reports in the forums that FIFA 16 does not start after you have successfully installed it. After starting FIFA16.exe, only a black screen is displayed, the menu does not load and you cannot continue. Even though it only occurs very occasionally and we haven’t had any problems with it yet, an update to the graphics card drivers is said to have solved the problem.

So if you haven’t checked the updates of your graphics card drivers for a while, then you should do it now at the latest. It is not uncommon for an update to the graphics card drivers to sometimes work wonders and resolve such problems.

The new Steam update is the true ‘GOTY’ of this year for thousands of players, and adds…


The phrase almost seems routine: Steam has released a new update. Patch that adds options to the platform Valve which might well go unnoticed. However, here we are not facing one of those new versions that is almost not even worth paying attention to. In its place come some additions that promise radically transform the way in which some users relate to the platform. A coup of authority from a company that continues to demonstrate efforts to leave its competitors behind, reaffirming its intention to maintain a leadership position as outstanding as the one it has had over the last 15 years.

A perfect upgrade for multitaskers, the TikTok generation, and low budgets

Although now we will go into an in-depth review of all the additions, the main idea of ​​the update is to offer us the possibility of overlay some tools offered by Steam on top of the game screen. For example, you can create notes about the game to remember your progress and make it permanently visible. Everything is done through Valve’s own client, with no need to ‘tab’ the game at any point or re- windows. This can be very useful, for example, if we are following a side quest from one of those games that doesn’t offer too much detail like Elden Ring either Hollow Knight.

However, this function, which seems like a blessing for classic players who know what it’s like to play a game with the notebook next to them, comes with other even more interesting functions. Do you want to watch a movie or some videos on YouTube while you play? Now you have at your disposal an improved browser offered by the Steam which can also be superimposed on the screen. It is perfectly compatible with all kinds of tools. If you wish, you can even put a movie in the browser and have it in the corner of your screen game to do two things at once while you spend hours playing a more relaxed game that may not require 100% of your attention.

A taste of what you can do with the new Steam features

The truth is that it is an idea with which we can only agree and that benefits, most notably, gamers who only have one screen. Maybe I, with my two monitors, will not get too much out of it. However, players with lower budgets have a chance to make some truly useful stuff. Especially if they belong to that generation accustomed to multitasking that, until now, perhaps had to go to their mobile phone to be able to watch videos while playing. In that sense, it seems that Steam has hit the nail on the head. It also offers options to modify the opacity of windows so that we can configure everything to our liking so that it does not bother.

Additionally, the Steam update has added the following changes:

  • Updated Steam Client notifications. There are now added options to choose which notifications you will see and where they will appear.
  • Visual and usability improvements to dialogs, menus, fonts, and colors. Included in this section is the screenshot manager, achievements and more.
  • Substantial improvements to the overlay in game. New visual section, customization, design and tools (those mentioned in this news) added. You can access it with the Shift + Tab command while playing the game.
  • Improved functionality with controller.
  • Mac and Linux can now use hardware acceleration.

Addon Pack is now available to all players and Some of the functions also affect Steam Deck. For example, if we save a note about a game while we are on the PC, we can later review it when we continue our session on the Valve console.

Enable and disable Red Dead Redemption 2 subtitles


How to set subtitles in Red Dead Redemption 2? How can I display the German subtitles later or deactivate them later? When you start the adventure of Red Dead Redemption 2 on the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you can initially choose whether and when you want subtitles to be displayed. The subtitles are in German by default and unfortunately can currently only be set from German to English by laboriously changing the system language on the console. Depending on which setting you selected at the beginning of the game, some people may ask themselves, where can you change the setting later? It’s actually quite simple, but since we’re certainly not the only players looking for the option, you’ll find a short guide here.

RDR2: Switch subtitles on and off later

You can change the subtitle setting in Red Dead Redemption 2 at any time. Initially we have the option in the Game settings supposed to be under “General”, but you won’t find anything about it there, not even under “Audio”. Contrary to what you initially thought, you can find the subtitle setting under the sub-item “Advertisement“. Under the section “HUD“ you will find the option “ right in the middlesubtitle“ and here you have the options “On”, “Off”, and “Only in missions” to choose from, i.e. identical to what you could select at the start of the game. You can also display the speaker name in the subtitle.

Unfortunately, you cannot change the language in Red Dead Redemption 2 because there is no German dubbing. As mentioned, the subtitle language can currently only be changed by changing the system language on the console.

There are some cheats available to you in Red Dead Redemption 2. We have summarized all available cheat codes for RDR 2 in the linked guide.

Creating multiple characters in Red Dead Online: Is that possible?

How can you create multiple characters in Red Dead Online? Can you create a second character and how do you change it in RDO on the PS4 or Xbox One? When you start the Red Dead Online beta, you can create a character and start playing straight away. Some RDR2 Online players may sooner or later ask themselves whether it is actually possible to create multiple characters in the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2. Since we are probably not alone with this question, you will find a short summary of the topic here.

Creating multiple characters in Red Dead Online: Is it possible?

The short answer is, no, in the current Red Dead Online beta you can only create one character. Unlike in GTA Online, where you can easily create a second character and switch between them at any time, this is not yet possible, at least in the current beta phase of RDR 2 Online. Something will probably change on this topic in the future, after all it is only a beta that is still being worked on and some features will certainly follow.

Even if you can’t directly create multiple characters and manage them, according to reports you should be able to create a second user on the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One and also use it to create a second character in Red Dead Online (we haven’t been able to yet test, addition will follow shortly).

If something has already changed on the topic and you can now create multiple characters in Red Dead Online and switch between them, please leave us a short note in the comments and we will add the information here.

How do you actually activate passive mode in Red Dead Online?
