    Well my first job was an Ink/toner tech. But after working their for over a year at cartridge world I decided to get into networking and security. I took a college course at charter college and got a job as a network admin while I was attending college. But I decided that I was still not satisfied after only being in the field for about 6 months I quit and became a unity developer. I've been dabbling in unity for almost 3 years and had finally decided to dive right in.

  1. My particular board doesn't hide them & has them located above the GPU & a second slot below it. There is no provided cover either from the motherboard manufacturer. The entire build was designed with LED lighting built into the board, case, cooling, etc & for the lights to show this on the board it just leaves a bit of an ugly taste to look at. Now I understand why most people don't care since they probably don't have theirs designed for show-casing, atm. But in my particular case, I do / From what I hear their PS5 branded one is exactly as the picture/advertising they do for it.. So I may return & buy that one tomorrow if they have it.
  2. I just bought a 2tb SN770 SSD from bestbuy which cost me 128 dollars & sadly the item does not look like the advertisement box or picture where it hides all the Printed circuit board electronics. This is unfortunate because I had bought it for a glass case to go with my aesthetic pc build. Since it is significantly different from what it was portrayed as this would count as false advertising & I am not sure whether to return it to Best Buy & try for a different model or if I'll just get scammed again with the pretty cover pictures.. Are there any that you offer that aren't falsely advertised? Thought I was getting an aesthetically pleasing SSD for my glass case PC Instead, you get this.. & no it does not come with a screw or sticker just a panflit..
  3. Well yes, I am running it now and it's fine at first but once you get about 50% into adding cool graphical effects it starts to bog down the machine and I thought it was because I was in the developer version so I exported into a game update and the results stayed the same. Could it be affected do to hard drive read and write speeds? Because I am at a point where the game engine is doing very complex equations and calculations added with a lot of C# scripts and the game server which is still under development is having issues running certain sandbox worlds with advanced special effects and even the ones with basic graphics and crazy game mechanics (which are still being added on) are starting to show signs of lack of hardware power...
  4. Was wondering what the best hardware platform best benifits the unity game engine? I'd like to upgrade my system but do not know which hardware this particular engine runs best off of. Any advice would be nice... Update: This will be for game development not just running unity games. Currently running CPU: FX-8350 (Clocked at 4.4ghz? I think.. been awhile) MOBO: Asus 970 pro gaming aura led thing... (dislike) (wish I still had ASUS M5A97 R2.0) 1 Intel SSD 530 240G series. (Win 7 ult 64bit) 1 Samsung SSD 840 Evo 240G (Win 10 64bit insider build latest) 1 WDC WD1003FZEX-00MK2A0 (1TB) 1 WDC WD30EFRX-68EUZN0 (3TB) Case: Cooler Master HAF XB EVO (still 100 bucks...) GPU: EVGA GTX 1070 SC edition (the only one that comes with a free copy of that one game...) Mouse: ROCCAT KONE XTD MAX Cooler air: Cooler Master HYPER 212 EVO (works good) Keyboard: Razer Blackwidow chroma ultimate/ Old 2009 Compaq ps2 keyboard ( I switch between them...) Display: INSIGNIA TV 24INCH 1080p 60hz SRS HD true-surround (Got it in 2012 still going strong after a few repairs...) (Works really well for streaming games at 1600x9? to twitch/youtube.) (TV supported the latest HDMI tech) PSU: 80+ GOLD CERT Corsair HX 750 <This has a 7-year warranty it died after 3... Now using an 850 watt modular something. 24Gig of ram running mixed ram with same timings and power consumption zero issues.

  5. Was wondering if their really was that much of a performance difference in 32Bit applications between adobe air version 2.6 and anything newer or latest sdk. I mean strictly 32bit adobe air programs made for 32bit windows os. If so please explain or elaborate for me. Now I have a second question. Is it possible to develop an adobe air application made in 32bit to use more than 2G of ram if it is installed on a 64bit OS? Either by modifying the source code, sdk, or by making a work around/force it to do so. If the computer has say 8G or 16G+ of available ram? Why not just make it in a 64bit? well if you where smart you'd know that version 2.6 doesn't support it. support didn't come until 3.0. And I need 2.6 still to keep Linux support sadly...
  6. Corona 1.3 Benchmark Finished BTR Scene 16 passes AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor Time: 0:07:44, Rays/sec: 1,046,090 Clocked at 4Ghz 2x4Gb of ram clocked at 2400Mhz. I can't go any higher only have a 750Wat PSU...
  7. I need to create a bootable flash drive formatted as either USB-ZIP (preferably) OR USB-FDD. I have tried just about every software I could find. And so far I have not been able to find/figure out how to: A; FORMAT A USB Flash Drive to USB-ZIP OR USB-FDD. Using windows cmd diskpart or 3rd party software persay..? B; I have .iso and .image forms of the linux distro I wish to use. And I can make any working TRUE .form that I need (.bin .image .iso .etc if need be.) C; http://www.partitionguru.com/step/boot-from-usb.php I have been able to get this to boot using the USB-Zip format however.. I'm not able to successfully change the 3rd party software to the linux os I wish to make bootable..either to install or run as live cd mode. (Interestingly enough I am able to extend the 1.44mb partition it makes using AOMEI software and it still works with the default 3rd party software.) So it is possible to run/boot a larger USB-ZIP file via usb stick. D; I tried MS-DOS, Free DOS, DD image and ISO image all failed.. So basically; how do I format the USB stick in either USB-FDD or USB-ZIP. Without having 3rd party software on it other than what is needed to make it a USB-ZIP or USB-FDD. Once formatted in 1.44mb I can extend that partition without breaking the bootable files. which will allow me to use the entire 8g usb or 30gig usb drives that I have. I know I have to have a bootable .bin because of the ZIP format/FDD. But I cannot find software that will allow me to just format the dam USB stick to either bootable format so please help. WHY am I going through the trouble of doing this instead of using USB-HDD??? Well simple, the motherboard does NOT SUPPORT IT! "PERIOD"
  8. Well, the projects section isn't working correctly but we just fixed the overlap with some wording. + It's under development right now.. and will be for awhile.. Update: 1 well... the email works now. Apparently it didn't? Update; 2 automation phone service is down. People are manually answering calls/texts. It feels like the more we add to the site the more things tend to break something...
  9. Is anyone else having the problem where in chrome when you click the link I provided it does not load the image on the default page?? (Update; omg just realized under projects the word thing overlaps the other word thing.. dammit...) Also under projects it's not showing our project that we're working on! Ahh!.....sigh update 2: can someone test the link above in multiple browsers to see if that image not loading only affects chrome or all browsers that would be greatly appreciated!
  10. http://www.fmedesigndevelopment.com/ It's under construction still; But, I think it's starting to come together nicely.. The photos will be updated with more professional looking ones, apparently my lawyer has advised me to do so.. This is for my company that I have started up. It's basically 5 members so far and we do game development. We use unity and all have roughly 3 years of experience. Any opinions, advice, suggestions, improvements, ideas, changes, etc.. Are all welcomed gracefully. =)
  11. Alright, we'll try plugging him into the network either with wifi or an ethernet cable. If both PC's work then it's the powerline adapter thing that is causing the issue.. Also, select best answer when problem is solved.
  12. Try updating the BIOS or simply reinstall the existing bios (if no new ones available) via update. And see if it fixes your issue.
  13. If he is on powerline (that's ethernet through power outlet?) then try putting him cable or wifi and see if his internet still gets cut off if not then my guess is when you start using your PC it draws so much power from the wall it literally deteriorates the signal being sent to your brothers PC VIA powerline to the point of it not being usable. This is kinda sorta a common problem with that kind of tech that no one really talks about...
  14. Did that ssd fix your problem? Please select best answer or simply update your thread saying that your problem has been resolved.
  15. 1, How is your network setup. 2, Is network prioritization on. 3, is their an IP conflict. 4, do you have packet loss issues on his PC? (use www.pingtest.net only works with IE like 11? Requires java) 5, what is your internet bandwidth (as in speed)
