Dirt3

September 2nd, 2011 | Posted by Lee in Gaming - (0 Comments)

I finally gave in last week, and bought Dirt3, I’ve only ever been interested in the WRC and  Colin Mcrae rally games (before they started adding the RallyX and landrush type modes), and for this reason, I never bought Dirt2, after being disappointed with the first in this series. And I have to say I love it, the handling and cars seem great, not sure all of the surfaces react the way they should, ice/snow definitely don’t. I’ll capture some gameplay soon, but for now, enjoy these videos of my gameplay using the built in Youtube upload feature, I hope more games use this kind of thing.

Below: karma does exist in racing.

 

 

A finaly recommendation, if you’re used to driving games, CHANGE THE SETTINGS, alter the driving assist to Intermediate or something if you haven’t already. The casual setting is far too forgiving, it keeps the car perfectly steady, automatically controls the throttle, allowing you to race round a whole stage without lifting your finger of the trigger once.

Getting that Facebook video [Advanced]

August 19th, 2011 | Posted by Lee in geeky-stuff - (0 Comments)

Many users know how to get videos and music off existing sources that were designed to be viewed live, eg youtube, whether it’s using a downloaded program or a 3rd party website that rips the content and allows you to download it.
Users wanting to download somebody else’s video of Facebook will realize this isn’t possible, and third party methods are most probably ruled out because of privacy settings.

There is a way though, using your browsers (Firefox in this case) cache. A cache is a copy of something that your computer stores enabling you to access it faster next time, without the need to re-download the content from the server.

  1. Go to the video page using Firefox, don’t play it yet.
  2. Click the Start button, click your user name that you’re logged into Windows with. eg mine is LEthaLity. You should see a folder called AppData, if you do skip to step 4, if not, read on.
  3. You need to enable the viewing of hidden folders, click the organise button in the top left, ->Folder and Search Options, then click the View tab, under Files and Folders there’s a “Hidden files and folders” option. Click the radio button enabling “Show hidden files, folders, and drives”. Then click Apply, and ok, you should now see AppData.
  4. Enter AppData, then click Local->Mozilla->Firefox->Profiles. You will then see a folder named in the following manner “imm40evz.default”, the bit before default will probably be different for you. Enter this folder, then go into Cache.

    5. … Read the rest
