  1. Hey,

     

    Not sure if this is the right place, it's a bit complicated, so.. sorry.

     

    So, I need your help. There's a contest here in Egypt made by the Chinese embassy here, about 60 years of good relations between the 2 countries. (Egypt and China) The contest is about a logo/design about the event. The top prize is 20 000 EGP for 1. (~ 2 000 USD) I really need that money, so I decided to join. However, I have some problems..

     

    The design. So far I decided on 2 designs, not sure which one to go with. The first one is a mural like design, sized 7203x1440p, I have the basic ideas planned, but not sure about the rest. It would have the pyramids on the far west, the great wall on the far east and in the middle, the red star of China, along with both flags crossed under it (like in CrashbotUS' avatar). The background would be a blue sky and under it a desert, with the faces of Egyptian/Chinese leaders in the past 60 years blended in the blue sky. At the bottom of the picture, "60 Years of good relations" would be written. I also thought of adding some national symbols in the picture, like the Chinese dragon. But not sure which Egyptian symbol to add..

     

    The second design is a simple stamp one, like the Canadian-Israel one, or the German-Australian one, but I have no idea what to put in it. 

     

    Would really appreciate help since that money would help a lot.

     

     

    Thanks in advance.

  2. From Reddit:

     

     

    So yeah, not degenerate, but it could have been more respectful.

     

    Note: I don't speak Arabic. At all.

     

    I wouldn't say that one is more respectful to be honest. But I am Egyptian so.. (the more respectful one is not commonly used here. Egyptian-Arabic uses the normal one most of the time. or the martyr one for martyrs)

  3.  

    Abu Hajaar, please.

     

    Also, SLAT armour works really well yo. 

     

    Also interesting:

     

     

    I saw someone else point out that they're not even using a 'honorary' variant of death but more like a ''degenerate' variant. (But I forgot where I found the comment)

     

    There's an honorary version of death in Arabic?

     

    My Arabic is not very good, but I only remember "died" (مات), "killed" (قتل), became a martyr (استشهد). There's also other stuff like: god took him (توافاه الله), etc. Last one is more of an Egyptian thing btw.

     

    (note: in Islam, martyrs are not counted as dead)

  4. Since we're on the subject, what's the deal with modding FNV? I haven't modded Bethesda in ages, so is there a convenient mod manager or what?

    It might be refreshing to play a roided up version of FNV.

     

    I use FOMM for FNV. Though most of the installing I do is manual. I mostly use it for load order organization, etc. 

     

    It also works for FO3.

     

    For Skyrim, I use NMM since there's nothing else really. 

     

    I use an ENB for graphics along with tons of texture mods. I don't remember all of them, but the ones I remember are NMCs, Ojo Bueno and MGs Neat Clutter Pack, along with EVE and Millenia's WRP. 

     

    For gameplay, I don't remember. When my PC is fixed, I can give you my loadorder. (but that's a big when.)

    And goodnight, going to sleep now. Talk to you later. Have something I did for fun a few months ago:

    Also, that new Fallout 4 teaser is pretty meh. [the one with the guy blowing brains with a bat]

     

    But, gore from FO4 from that trailer:

  5. I know, Mo, I'm just ribbing ya.

    Well, I didn't know, but... Yeah, anyway.

    With mods, Bethesda games get much better, but I tend to hold that against Bethesda, rather than for them.

     

    Yeah, their games are unmatched in mod-ability. The only issue is that they might be using it as an excuse to release shitty stuff. Also the paid mods stuff.

  6. I can tell you are running a face overhaul mod. No way are those Bethesda faces.

     

    FCO and NVR 3.

     

     

    Maybe stop gaming on a laptop?  ;)

    My rig is not the newest, but I started with a good GPU, and I've kept it supplied with plenty of RAM, so it runs most things well. Someday, someday, I will get around to installing that SSD...

     

    I don't. I have a desktop. It's just outdated by today's standards. [Core to Quad, ATI HD 5450, etc etc]

     

    Though the PSU suffered a problem, so I am now using a business laptop. [i5, not sure which type and Intel HD 3000 for graphics]

  7. Witcher 3 made me realize how shit my GPU is. Finally a game I cannot literally run.

     

    Metro? Can run it. 3 FPS.

     

    Skyrim? 10 FPS. 0.5 FPS when fully modded and ENB is active. But no worries, I only play it for screenshots now. 

     

    etc.

     

    But Witcher 3... no. I didn't try it though, but looking at how it looks and the minimum specifications.. nah.

  8. It seriously absofuckinglutely shocked me how Bethesda had the gall to release Skyrim when it was so obviously unfinished. It was basically just a devkit with a demo attached. There are whole unfinished segments of the game lying around in the code, to the degree that modders have actually taken to finishing Bethesda's fucking game for them.

     

    If you thought that gerrperrscherrs were the only fucking thing that could get me droning on and on for hours like Alex Jones about the New World Order, then you haven't fucking asked me what I think about Skyrim.

     

    It's because they told people it was getting released at that date. 

     

    Stupid excuse since they could delay it but meh..

     

    But hey, I got Skyrim's Legendary Edition for like 13 USD. That's not bad for a modding platform. Though if they fucking repeat it in Fallout 4... 

     

    One tip btw, turn your brain off while playing it, and expect to be playing shit. That way, the stupid stuff won't hit you too hard.

  9. 3 is irredeemable garbage. NV is playable. 1 & 2 are totally different games, and much better (though like many games of their generation, they suffer from severe clunk).

    4 has a really nice trailer (alien stretch-armstrong dog excluded). So did Skyrim, Oblivion, and Fallout 3. All were terrible wastes (pun!) of time. 4 will suck because Bethesda brings people into stores ike you wouldn't believe but can't actually make a good game to save their lives.

     

    ffffff

  10. It was meant to re-start the franchise without the new owners (Bethesda) treading on the toes of all the old fans by covering ground black isle would have.

     

    Obsidian (which is essentially black isle 2.0) was allowed to go back to the old well under Bethesda's supervision.

     

    I think it all worked out pretty well, personally.

     

    Yeah. We'll see where Fallout 4 stands after.. ~ 2 weeks. 

     

    Speaking of that, achievements apparently were leaked.
