EU GAF am cry. T_T



Anyway, I noticed I just had to finally cave in and install Depressurizer two days ago to make Valve finally step in and releasing the multi-category system.

But, I have another, more annoying problem, and I don't know if it's my fault (yeah lol) or Valve's.
Basically, I use Steam on three different systems (Win home desktop, Mac laptop and the Win bootcamp partition on the laptop).
Whenever I open Steam on Mac it somehow forgets SOME of my recent changes in categories and favorites. And I actually don't care, as on Mac I've installed just a bunch of games, quick and easy, to play at work (ehm...).
But when I go back to my home desktop, it keeps the categories half-forgotten of Mac Steam.

You can imagine that it's so painful that I've actually stopped launching Steam on Mac, and I'm not playing games at work anymore. :'(

Fact is: is this (mostly: categories failing to be the same cross-devices) a known issue or it's something happening just to me?

I used the stuff that Nito taught me, made an avatar of Elizabeth. what do you guys think?

(complete Photoshop noob, sorry if it look a bit janky.)

 

[zkylon]

i think you should have me give it a shot

like constructive criticism would be that either you cropped her out of a background or it just looks like it. from white background you can't really tell but that's what my eye tells me

if u want i can try and crop it for you if u send me the full image so it looks nice and smooth like my delicious avatar <3

i'm telling you cos i love you and i want you to have good avatars

 

[Manik]

I think you're the first person to say this since the game released.

Sounds promising! And I don't even own Bad Rats yet either. What an amateur.

Looks like you stalk her and cut out that picture to put in a collage book next to a picture of you and what you imagine your kids will look like.

Is that what you were going for?

Also, does anyone know when the GTA discount ends? There's a timer on the main Nuuvem page that has a little under ten hours left, but the timer on the GTA complete page has about 36 hours left.

I know this might seem like a weird question, but does anyone else open the Steam client and you need to maximise the window each time?

Like this.

Maybe try a clean reinstallation (just be sure to move your steamapps and userdata folders out of the way first). When there are no issues, if Steam is maximised upon exit, it won't remember to start in a maximised state, but it will remember the window size. The only problem with this is that the maximised window size becomes the new windowed size.

i'm telling you cos i love you and i want you to have good avatars

My avatars are like my Steam games in that I love them all equally.

 

[Atraveller]

The internet never cease to amaze me. "Chinese people ate my dog" and lots and lots of "faggot" by a teammate.

Dirty mind.

Yeah.

 

[Rhaknar]

he means the price mistake I think

I also think JaseC meant the special edition was only $1 MORE than the normal, not that the game was $1... but only he can confirm that when he stops petting koalas

 

[Monooboe]

We've known this for 12ish hours now

Haha oops, just woke up.XD Did a quick check among the threads and didn't see anything.XD

 

[Casimir]

Has anyone had any experience with Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms? I'm not really that big on ARPG's but the game looks interesting.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

i'm really hype for gods will be watching

really sounds like my kind of shit

I'm pretty much dropping everything I'm playing and focusing on it when it releases today. From some of the things I've heard so far, it mostly lives up to the hype.

the special edition was only $1 MORE than the normal,

This is true.

 

[Double]

Good morning Favgaf. Last exam for the term today =( =)

 

[Rhaknar]

Has anyone had any experience with Shadows: Heretic Kingdom? I'm not really that big on ARPG's but the game looks decent.

nope but I want to

played a bit of Planet Explorers just now, mainly to know a litrle about it, will deffinately stream later, hopefully before the sale is up (should do), I liked the little I played.

Might also stream some Darkwood if I buy it (EA tho :/) and some more Halfway. Stream crazy. Might start putting the big old library to use and start streaming random shit on demand, like if someone isnt sure about a game

something to ponder, but now some sleep

 

[JaseC]

Yeah, hence "the Special Edition premium".

 

[Shadownet]

Ah that make sense.

Also, Mata Hari = Carmen Sandiego?

 

[Creamium]

I noticed Trine started redownloading, and didn't know it's because of this

In short, Trine Enchanted Edition is a port of Trine to the Trine 2 engine, and as a result, many of the “missing” features of the original game, such as online multiplayer, have been added! We have also updated the visual appearance of the game and improved the gameplay – the game should look and feel even better now. At the moment this patch is only for Windows. We will add Mac and Linux versions afterwards, but we can't give an estimate of the time frame for those yet.

Which was in beta before this update. I like developers still improving their older games. Replayed a bit of the game just now, never got around to Trine 2 actually.

i figured that'd be hardly surprising

I'm pretty much dropping everything I'm playing and focusing on it when it releases today. From some of the things I've heard so far, it mostly lives up to the hype.

i dunno about hype but i'm all for getting bummed out

i gotta go back to dks2 and beat the dlc tho

i thought i was gonna finish it in one run since the main game wasn't too challenging but it's no easy task

Great, since it's out of beta, I might finally play the game.
Anyone who played it single? Is it okay, or should I wait for buddies to play with?

Haha, the common thumbs-up emoticon that FM 2013 badges drop is worth 69 cents. It's no :weed:, but considering the cards are worth ~10 cents a pop it was an nice surprise.

Happy birthday! And thanks for the awesome giveaway!

So I see that the GTA Complete pack is on sale at Nuuvem, does anyone know if it still includes GTA 1 and 2? I think I saw JaseC say something about them changing that.

According to nuuvem, I guess it does not:

This package includes : Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV e Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City
