This thread is simulcast on the Atariage Nuon thread here at this link.

Currently playing Merlin Racing on the Nuon, working to complete the Adventure game. Beat Dr. Freo (got the first of four gems) and completed nine of the races. Want to see where I am and try it out on your Nuon? Here's my current code...

LNTWTDBR

Has anyone ever said if one character has any other speed/traction/Acceleration advantages over the other characters?

I tried to race Dr. Freo with Rocco (Racoon) but had to use Picco (the armadillo) to finally defeat him.

Been a few days but still making progress on the Merlin Carts adventure settings.



By the way, you know that long intro at the very beginning? If that is too long for you, just hit "start" I found out and it skips to the game. Another Youtuber did a review on the game and that was one of their gripes.

Here is a video showing the fourth boss, Kepler

Here is a video made of racing the first boss, Dr. Freo

Below I've got my latest code which allows you to play the 21st race, and allows you to race the fourth boss, Kepler if you want to play along.

The other thing included was something I asked about some time ago that apparently did not exist but will now: the stats to all the drivers! A crude scribble, but this is based on their character descriptions in the manual.

Another fun thing, once you put in the password you can race as the previous bosses I defeated in Adventure mode. So now you can race as Dr. Freo, Rosie, and Piasa. Hopefully I can add Kepler and the Witch to that line up in the future.

Back to the races!

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
