Random Rants XLVII: I don't like food anymore!

[Joecoolyo]

Rant: Costco interview was meh, the job sounds strange, so I'm totally ok if I don't get it.

Regal all the way!

 

[Ajidica]

At least you are on your way to getting a job. I wasn't able to for the summer so now I get to hack away at the jungle our garden has evolved into.

 

[emzie]

And all of Canada gaped in horror with her.

God. I just stared at your post in horror as I imagine your wife did.

I knew what I said was stupid before she reacted. But it was too late

 

[Arakhor]

Stupidity is only beaten by bad news in travelling faster than light.

That 70s Show to the rescue.

And… you can't get any jobs during the summer?

 

[PlutonianEmpire]

Rant: And the above posts (and preceding page) leave me standing in confusion as to what exactly made that name so horrific and why.

Rant 2: I hate always being too damn slow.

 

[SamSniped]

I just need someone to talk to right now...

People are still hiring if you apply now, I mean, that's what I did.

Then again I might just be lucky, considering my track record the past couple summers.

You might want to read up on the little-known (and unimportant) artist, Claude Monet.

And equally important artist, Edouard Manet.

I've just spent 1 hour with deleting spam crap from the modiki.
This is totally what I want to do in a Saturday night. I don't have anything more important to do.

As much as I love Dragon Age: Origins, I absolutely hate any map in the Fade, especially the ones during the Mage Quest.

Nexus is your friend!! I did that thing like twice and swore I'd never do it again. Though personally that's the only fade sequence that really bugs me. It's just so damned drawn out and BORING.

Skip the Fade

Spoiler :

Description
===========
This mod is intended for everyone who like me hates the Fade. I always had problems finding a way out of this labyrinth, so I created this mod (partly also because of a request in the forums).
When you defeat Duncan and use the pedestal, you will be teleported to each of your companion's nightmares. If all companions are rescued, just click on the pedestal and you will be teleported to the Sloth Demon. From there on all will proceed as usual: kill the Sloth Demon, Neil appears and you are teleported back to the Circle Tower.

Details
=======
- You will be teleported to each of your companion's nightmares.
- If all companion quests are done, you will teleported to the final boss.
- You get all the attribute points, codex entries and XP you normally would get, when you complete the Fade.
- Attribute Points:
Strength: 4
Dexterity: 4
Willpower: 4
Magic: 2
Cunning: 5
Constitution: 2
Total = 21
- Codex Entries:
Codex 013: Ghoul
Codex 014: Golem
Codex 022: Rat
Codex 027: Sloth Demon
Codex 031: Wisp
Codex 063: The Rite of Annulment
Codex 065: The Black City
Codex 075: Hierachy of the Circle
Codex 076: History of the Circle
Codex 078: The Harrowing
Codex 080: Maleficarum

Codex 086: The Four Schools of Magic: Entropy
Codex 087: The Four Schools of Magic: Primal
Codex 088: The Four Schools of Magic: Spirit
Codex 089: Beyond the Veil: Spirits and Demons

Codex 293: Shapeshifting: Golem Form
Codex 294: Fade Shapeshifting (Mouse)
Codex 295: Shapeshifting: Spirit Form

Just a suggestion. If you decide to go hog wild with mods for dragon age, use this: DAO Modmanager. Unfortunately, Nexus's NMM (Nexus Mod Manager) doesn't support Dragon Age, so that's why you'd need a custom one if you were to use one.

Here are the mods I use:
Character Respec (Ever totally screwed up your character??)
Morrigan restoration patch
Storage chest
Ancient boots fix
No follower autolevel (that's right, no junk specs you don't want them to have!)

Have fun!

Never. Wake me up. At 0530. NEVER.

 

[classical_hero]

I had a virus attack my laptop and it caused great problems, mainly with the internet and being connected but not getting a connection. Thankfully the problem is fixed.

 

[Ajidica]

I'll have to remember that mod, although it would be a waste installing it now as I am pretty much done with the nasty Fade levels. The levels are bad enough, but the stupid filter makes everything look like crap.

EDIT: Do you know of any mods that tell you whether a spell can be used with weapons drawn or requires charging time on the skill selection page? I'm playing an Arcane Blade and it is a pain to constantly have to alt-tab out of the game to check that.

 

[bhsup]

Sadly, no. I printed this page out so I wouldn't have to tab out of the game.

EDIT: A quick search did find this mod right off the bat. Rather than doing what you were looking for, it instead modifies all spells to be castable while wielding.

Thanks.

 

[Tee Kay]

I've became way too comfortable with this lie I'm living.

I know now what it is that I want from therapy. I want to stop living like this.

 

[JohannaK]

Hmm... I can only say, congratulations on your realisation. I guess therapy is what is going to help you change, to at least find a general direction. 'Cause you certainly need to assert your views and come to a firm new stance on this change. And I certainly don't know how to do that from an internet forum. Or outside of it, really. If I knew, I would.
