Sonic mania plus xbox one pre order6/2/2023 ![]() The Classic Music Pack adds additional music for the in-game museum from Sonic Spinball, Knuckles Chaotix, and Sonic 3D Blast. While these are simply extra content, the wording on the website implies players would lose more value than what's being offered. The most confusing factor of Sonic Origins' DLC plans may be the Premium Fun Pack and the Classic Music Pack. The only thing fans may miss out on is a Mega Drive-themed letterbox background if they don't order ahead of release. While this led some to believe Mirror Mode was exclusive to pre-orders, Sega said it will be unlockable through gameplay, just like how players can gather coins while playing. ![]() The $39.99 Standard Edition contains just the base game the Deluxe Digital Edition comes with Hard Missions, additional music, and special visual features for $44.99 dollars and a special Start Dash pre-order bonus set comes with "Mirror Mode unlocked," 100 extra coins, and a special letterbox background.īetween the Standard Edition, Deluxe Digital Edition, and Start Dash DLC are other packs called the Premium Fun Pack and the Classic Music Pack, which have the same features as the Digital Deluxe Edition. Using a chart with Sonic's iconic rings as checkmarks, the site tries to explain just what buyers are getting in each bundle. Sega provided us with a Sonic Mania Plus copy for the Nintendo Switch for review purposes.Sonic Origins is split into five different bundles between each version of the game, the game's pre-order bonus, and DLC. It’s a true return to form for everyone’s favorite hedgehog, and it’s definitely nice to have a reason to revisit. Sonic Mania Plus is definitely worth checking out, especially if you happened to miss out on the original release of Sonic Mania. The only real negative I have with Plus is that the new pinball inspired bonus stage isn’t that great, both in how it plays and with the rewards you get for attempting it. The added characters are fun and different enough when compared to Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles, and the Encore mode gives added incentive for those that spent time playing through the game last year uncovering every little secret. To top things off, Time Attack and Competition modes now allow for up to 4 players to compete against each other, and you’ll also have ghost challenges for Time Attack mode.Īgain, this might not be a significant upgrade to the base game, but for five dollars it definitely feels worth it to me. ![]() You’ll also encounter new power-ups, including one that will mix up the characters you control amongst the entire roster. Also, it does make use of the new character abilities, including out of reach ledges for Ray, and destructible ground areas for Mighty. This isn’t some sort of completely revamped experience, but it does offer what feels like a tougher challenge than before. The levels are altered with different enemy placements, hazards, and some slight visual tweaks to set this mode apart from what you played last year. ![]() While the base game doesn’t do anything special with the new mechanics, the featured Encore mode of Sonic Mania Plus certainly does.Įncore mode is the remixed version of the story mode from the first game. Mighty comes equipped with a ground pound style attack, and Ray can glide around stages, with a mechanic that feels reminiscent of Mario’s cape from Super Mario World. I’m admittedly rusty on my knowledge of “Sonic Friends”, but both are solid additions to the game. The new characters come in the form of Mighty the Armadillo, and Ray the Flying Squirrel. Also, if you’re a fan of physical media, there’s a new physical edition out for consoles that comes packed with an art book and a pretty snazzy looking Genesis-era cover via the reversible case artwork. It’s not a significant add-on from a story perspective, but I think it definitely feels price appropriate. For $4.99 you’ll get new characters, a new remixed version of the original game, and added support for the existing multiplayer modes, bumping the player count up to 4. Sonic Mania Plus, the recently released DLC for last year’s pretty great Sonic Mania, offers up a few good reasons to revisit the best 2D Sonic game since the old Genesis/Mega Drive days.

Art of illusion scene6/2/2023 ![]() In the early 20th century, various Surrealist artists began to experiment with the psychological impact of optical effects in the mind of the viewer. Other artists began to experiment with anamorphosis, or optical illusions which can only be seen from a certain angle, such as Guido Reni’s 17th century Jesus and Mary, which can either depict Jesus or Mary, depending on which angle it is viewed from.Ĭhrist of St John of the Cross by Salvador Dalí, 1951, in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow, via Art UK Giulio Romano’s stunning Sala dei Giganti (Room of the Giants), 1530-32, was painted onto the domed ceiling of the Palazzo del Te, creating the astonishing illusion of infinite space crowded with angels and warriors that ascend upwards through the clouds to heaven. But it was during the Mannerist period that optical effects were really pushed in daring new directions, as artists began exaggerating optical illusions and foreshortened effects for dramatic and emotional impact. The dazzling and wonderous Op Art movement has roots in the Renaissance period when the discovery of linear perspective led artists into greater levels of depth and realism than ever before. ![]() Here we examine 7 of today’s most outstanding illusions of the Op Art movement, but first, let’s take a look at the art history that continues to inform the practices of today.Ī Brief History Of Incredible Op Art Illusions Sala dei Giganti ceiling (room of the giants) fresco by Giulio Romano, 1532-34, in Palazzo del Tè, Mantua, via the Web Gallery of Art, Washington D.C. Mathematical precision and an understanding of the science of optics underpins the practice behind many of these works of art, which continue to be expanded in ever more adventurous and astonishing directions. Some have branched out into the city streets to create epic, sublime optical illusions of depth and space, while others transform gallery spaces into immersive and all-encompassing environments. An important strand of art history since Renaissance times, the strange and illusory world of optics continue to fascinate today’s artists, who have created some truly astonishing works of art. Looking at Op Art can be a mind-blowing experience, tricking our eyes into seeing the unbelievable and impossible. Abracadabra? Abracadon’t.Christ of St John of the Cross by Salvador Dalí, 1951 with Zobop by Jim Lambie, 2014 and Abyssal by Regina Silveira, 2010 The frustrating thing is that there’s fascinating stuff here, reality and myth: 20 th-century escapologist Harry Houdini did indeed choose his name in tribute to Robert-Houdin, and stories of early automata and confected visual narratives illuminate contemporary concerns about artificial intelligence and fake news.īut the smugness and the gendered, football-based in-jokes of Michalik’s original have been exacerbated and the subtleties obscured in this misguided production. ![]() The undercurrent of chauvinistic pride in Gallic creativity probably goes over better in Paris, too. Michalik’s point, that magic is the product of craftsmanship, hard work and endless disappointment as well as our collective need for wonder, gets lost. The tricks devised by ‘illusion consultant’ Ben Hart are basic and obvious. The year in which each scene takes place is painted on a prop or a costume. Journeys are indicated by a clippy-cloppy toy coach or a vroom-vrooming car waggled in front of us. The staging would be admirably simple if it weren’t so coarse.
Army of two masks 406/2/2023 ![]() Equip a screwdriver or kitchen knife "bayonet" on your gun and you'll see just what I mean. There are loads of new paint schemes, more options to modify your weapons, and you can even change the melee attacks based on your gear. ![]() Unfortunately, the first game's options were shallow, but in The 40th Day they have been vastly expanded. One of the first game's most appealing elements was the option to "pimp" your gun, swapping gun barrels or stocks or even gold plating the weapon to make it more effective in battle. Instead, they've been augmented to feel fresher and deeper. Now, the basic gameplay mechanics haven't changed too much from the original. Watch our video review here (HD available). Salem and Rios have to stay alive long enough to figure out who's behind this. Buildings blow up, aircraft fall from the skies - total chaos reigns. But as they finish their mission, all hell breaks loose in Shanghai. They take a contract that's way too easy: kill a few guards, handle a few objectives and score a large paycheck. Rios and Salem are back, running missions for their own private military corporation, TransWorld Operations. In the third game, Alpha and Bravo have their own signature masks, and have access to many other designs, including designs that are only unlocked through game progression.Unlike the first game, which spanned several years and different regions of the world, The 40th Day all takes place in Shanghai over the course of a few days. However, no new website was created for The Devil's Cartel, meaning that the mask creator is no longer available. There was a mask creator on the website for The 40th Day that allowed players to upload and use custom masks. However, none of the masks need to be purchased, and amongst the designs is Clyde's mask. In the second game, Rios's and Salem's signature masks return, but they now share all mask designs, although they have different mask shapes. ![]() However, unlike them, he doesn't wear any sort of mask during his first appearance, in Somalia. Like Rios and Salem, Clyde is not seen wearing a full mask until his appearances after the first mission in Somalia. However, his has a smile carved into it, and a V cutout for his mohawk. Philip Clyde has a mask similar to those of Rios and Salem. The design of the mask worn by the character is often a reflection of their personality traits, in Salem's case, his camouflage mask with flames could represent his military background and fiery personality while Rio's mask represents his grim facial expressions and a massive scar over the right side of his face. The masks usually have some sort of design painted or carved on, and occasionally have other features, such as holes or protrusions. The masks used by SSC and TWO have an armored shell that protects the entire face and partially wraps around the side and top of the head, which is attached to a hinge, allowing the mask to be lifted away from the face for ease of communication and/or better sight out of combat. Since their introduction in the first game, they have become somewhat iconic, and in The Devil's Cartel video game, it is shown that all TWO operatives wear them. Ballistic face masks are usually made of kevlar or other bullet resistant materials and the inside of the mask may be padded for shock absorption, depending on the design. Salem (left) and Rios (right) wearing their signature masks.Ī ballistic face mask, also known as facial armor, is type of personal armor designed to protect the wearer from ballistic threats. Purchasing all available masks will unlock the "Man of Many Masks" achievement. Gif brewery by gfycat6/2/2023 ![]() No way to remove individual frames (no - key for the actual editor).

There are almost no problems with this program, and it magically works with whatever I throw at it. This is why I'm happy to have Gif Brewery 3, which is the cloest thing to "Photoshop" level working with GIFs. I work with GIFs all day long, creating memes to post on social media, and I need a serioous tool to do my work. Didn’t know there were SO many more capabilities…and in a FREE APP. I’m not gretaly experienced making GIF’s, but I’ve made about 20 in my life, so not a total amateur-always used Gifski (also free Mac app) and was pleased with it. I HATE writing reviews but this surprised me so much that I felt obligated. Some parts of the creation process are multi threaded but some parts are not. The only problem is the time it takes to make the GIFs. GIF Brewery has a great way to step down the colors used one by one until the size and quality trade offs are acceptable. The biggest problem with GIFs is they get huge fast and the way to shrink them is resize the video or reduce the colors used. GIF Brewery is easy to just stick in a video clip and get something quick but it is also the most powerful to tweak settings and fine tune. I am a video editor and occationally clients was GIFs of shots or sections to share.

Easyres vs switchresx6/2/2023 ![]() It has worked flawlessly on HDMI at 3840x1080 HDR This approach/work around worked for me a number of times. The most consistent way I have had the CRG90 work with the M1 is to have another monitor hooked up to HDMI (or the CRG90 itself) and when it detects the CRG90 over DP as an extended desktop screen, increase the resolution on the HDMI monitor and then unplug the HDMI and the CRG90 remains as my primary screen until I reboot (it worked while waking from sleep). But the M1 and CRG90 do not negotiate a connection properly or with consistently and for me usually presents with a blank screen, no backlight, no rear lighting. I can confirm that I KNOW and have had the M1 Mac mini successfully display 5120 x 1440 SDR with my CRG90 using a USB-C to DispalyPort cable (2 different cables). I have installed ScreenResX to help see what the CRG90 and M1 negotiate as possible resolutions/frequencies and to select some that the M1 does not present in Display properties. I have seen other suggestions that setting your monitor DP level to 1.2 can help, although it made no difference to me. The Caldigit dock is acting as a TB3 to DP converter. Were you able to push the monitor to 5120x1440 using SwitchResX or similar display adjustment Ron, sorry, I forgot that you had already stated your connection configuration. I take it you tried, in display settings, to click the scaled option while holding the option key on the keyboard? So, I need to find someone using higher-speed USB-C TB3 cable to Display Port definitively saying that this will not work with the M1. I have not tested it, but others have recommended that this could be a solution There is a high-speed TB3 to Display Port cable made by Moshi that may work. Using a High-Speed TB3 cable which is recommended for these monitors.ġ6" MBP -> TB3 High Speed Cable -> Caldigit Dock -> DisplayPort Cable -> C49RG90 Monitor I am not using a USB-C to display port cable. I am going to try order different DP 1.4 cables to see if that fixes the problem. Currently, I have to unplug and replug the USB-C for the monitor to connect. It might just be a problem with the DisplayPort drivers or Big Sur. I am still having a problem where the system won’t detect the monitor when waking up from sleep. That is when I was finally able to get 5120 x 1440 (low resolution). I had to change the refresh rate setting on my monitor from 120hz to 60hz and turn off Freesync. I was able to connect the monitor with the new USB-C cable, however, max resolution I was able to get was 3840 x 1080 60hz. I ordered a Maxonar DisplayPort to USB-C cable from Amazon, which supports DP 1.4. The HDMI cable worked but not at 5120 x 1440. I assuming it’s because the usb-c cable I had only supports DP 1.3. At first the M1 wouldn’t work with the DisplayPort to USB-C cable, even after updating to Big Sur 11.0.1. However, on the new Mac Mini M1 I had a hard time getting 5120x1440 120hz. It works perfectly with on MacBook Air 2020. I have a SAMSUNG 49” CRG9, which supports 5120 x 1440 120hz. Weird guitar tab notes6/1/2023 ![]() strings and fret positions before moving on to more advanced techniques and the symbols used to describe them. We’ll start slowly, firstly discussing the basics e.g. ![]() Now that we’ve discussed the types of guitar tabs you are most likely to encounter, let’s move on to how to read guitar tab. Other guitar tab sites such as Ultimate Guitar have added the ability to auto-scroll their tabs which is also highly useful.įormal tab and interactive tab are mostly identical except the latter is interactive so we’ll be focusing on text-based And formal guitar tab for the remainder of this article. Songsterr is a good example of this and depending on the level of access (free or paid membership) the guitarist can also choose to pause, speed up or slow down the tempo, and even transpose the song to a different key. Interactive tab uses a marker (green in the example below) to indicate where in the song the guitarist currently is. Lastly, there’s interactive tab, which in most cases is just formal tab with the added advantage of being interactive. Tablature authoring tools such as powertab, guitar pro, and tux guitar allows anyone to create tab in this format. In many cases, formal tab will also be presented with music notation directly above, which can be useful if you understand rhythm (more on this below). Formal tab is more difficult for the average person to produce but often contains additional information useful for the guitarist. a guitar magazine or online in more detail than text-based tabs. Formal tab (Non-ASCII Tab)įormal tab is the name used to describe the type of guitar tab you might normally see in print e.g. While some include additional information such as barlines, the key for the piece of music, and/or displaying the chord name above the tab. Some examples of ASCII tab include the string names (notice the lowercase ‘e’, for the high E string and uppercase for the low E in our example above) others do not. Due to its accessibility, ASCII tab has been used extensively online and many tablature authoring tools are capable of exporting tab in ASCII format, using either the. For example, strings are represented by hyphens.ĪSCII code uses numbers to represent characters and is, therefore, a standard code available across a wide range of electronic devices.

In other cases, tab is more sophisticated, making the intention of the composer more easily understood.Īnd while differences exist (remember there are no standards in place for tab) for the most part we can place guitar tab into three categories. In some cases tab can appear simplistic, omitting basic information such as barlines. Keep in mind there are no strict definitions for tab so you are likely to notice differences. Types of guitar tabs īefore you learn how to read guitar tab, it’s a good idea to familiarise yourself with the different types, or formats you are likely to encounter. So, if you are new to guitar and yet to discover the magic of guitar tab, or feel like you have only scratched the surface, stay tuned. Tab is intuitive by design and most guitarists will learn the basics quickly once the layout and symbols used are understood.īut it’s also true that many guitar tabs include more advanced information that a lot of beginner guitarists may not be aren’t aware of, including symbols to indicate harmonics, vibrato, slides, and bends to strumming patterns, including symbols for upstrokes and downstrokes, along with rhythmic information. where to place your fingers on the fretboard, rather than just displaying the notes to be played in a similar way to chord boxes or chord charts which display the fingering required rather than the pitches required to play.Īll things considered, learning how to read guitar tab doesn’t require a knowledge of music theory, and subsequently won’t take the average guitarist long. For guitar players, It’s a far more intuitive alternative to standard notation as it displays the ‘ fingering’ e.g. Guitar tab (short for guitar tablature) is a method of notating music specifically for the guitar.

Nerf rebelle nerf guns6/1/2023 ![]() The Super Soaker series is so successful that any toy pressurized water gun will be always be referred as "super soaker''. ![]() Not only that, the iconic Super Soaker series is also part of Nerf's successful line. 2013 is the year that Nerf launched their Nerf Rebelle product line and this is aiming at the girls. Nerf loves to include everyone from all walks of life to play their game. If darts are not your usual fare, Nerf Super Soaker series will change your mind when you get splashed from head to toe! Each time you play with Nerf, you gain new experiences despite playing many times. Different shooting methods such as manual loading of individual darts or an automated flywheel allow for maximum creativity in every Nerf battle.

Hasbro has designed several different types of darts with unique features as well, such as the whistling dart or the suction dart for smooth surfaces.
