![]() I don’t recommend going higher than 50 unless you want circus-like arcade-style action. This is the literal speed of the action on the court: the players’ movements and speed of the ball. I like 14 or 15 minutes, even though the final score might end up lower than real-life. If you use the “let the CPU shoot for you” trick (just lay off the controller for 10 seconds), you’ll usually miss anyway.Ĭhoose how long a half is. On All-American, the shooting logic favors perfectly run plays too much, not allowing many buckets from freewheeling.īut the real game-breaking issue with All-American is that free throws are way too hard, and the free throw difficulty slider is a global slider, affecting both the user and the CPU. I personally have made my own tweaks, which I’ll mention here and there, but given how the forum appreciated his sliders, I’m deferring to his wisdom.ĪLL HAIL DEADLYCANE! Global Sliders Explained DifficultyĪll-American is rigid compared to the more organic feel of All-Conference. Higher fatigue effect: On default settings, fatigue is basically inconsequential.More offensive rebounds: I’ve seen widely mixed opinions on this some people think there are too many offensive rebounds, and some think there are too few.Fewer jumpshots from the post: On default settings, the CPU routinely throws the ball to the post, turns, and shoots a jumpshot, which is ugly and easy to block.Don’t worry, steals will happen more naturally from bad ballhandling and tipped passes, which is much more realistic. Fewer cheap steals: On default settings, you can spam the steal button for takeaways that you’d never see in a college game.More fouls: On default settings, there are few fouls.Realistic shooting percentage: with realistic results for each type of shot.This fella Deadl圜ane’s main objectives seem to be: ![]() For experienced players, it’s a little too easy against the CPU in the end.ĭeadl圜ane’s All-Conference Sliders: If you have some experience with the game, I highly recommend using these sliders, and then making tweaks to your liking over time. The idea is that it uses the Varsity-level logic, allowing lots of freewheeling and driving to the basket, but balances the difficulty with lower shot ability for the user, higher shot ability for the CPU. Go-to Slider Setsīlue’s Varsity Sliders: This is a great slider set to start with for rookies. My goal is to get all the useful information organized in one place.Īn extra special shoutout goes to forum contributor Deadl圜ane, whose sliders I’ll reference throughout the article, who offered the most useful information about the game’s logic, and who went to crazily long lengths to customize players with authentic rosters from the 2009-2010 season. The good bits of information are all over the place, and I had to sift through a bunch of mindless complaints and pointless questions to find them. If you’ve played NCAA Basketball 10 and wondered “ Why do I get stripped every time I drive?” or “ Why does the CPU always shoot from the post?” and of course “ What the hell is boundary force field?” you’re in the right place, brother!

Blackfire, who was leaving Earth at that exact moment, was defeated by Starfire after her right hand was hit by Starfire's starbolts. The Titans then discovered that Blackfire had framed Starfire for crimes by giving her a stolen jewel from the Centauri System. The Titans rescued her and explained to the Centaurians that they have captured the wrong Tamaranean. When Starfire thought of leaving Earth, the Centauri Police showed up and captured her. She was especially unhappy with her sister's attempts at flirting with Robin. The Titans seemed to like her so much, Starfire was beginning to think they wouldn't need her around anymore. Blackfire won the Teen Titans' support by having fun with them and telling them stories of adventures she had throughout her travels in the galaxy. Blackfire first appeared when she arrived on Earth in the second episode " Sisters" where she gave Starfire a Centauri moon diamond and pretended to enjoy being reunited with her. ![]() Founded in 1971 and spread over 55 acres, it houses a variety of animals, including polar bears, sea jellies, sharks, seals, and even sea birds.

I primarily use it for games, and when it was working, it worked flawlessly. I have not added any hardware in the last year. I have not overclocked the system at all. When I booted from the Windows DVD, it stuck as well on the screen with the blue "window". That didn't last long, a day or so later it started sticking at the repair message, with the spinning circle, and even with resetting it would NOT boot into Windows. I restarted and voila, it seemed to be fixed. I then ran DISM after that in case the windows image needed repairing. I looked online, and I turned off the restart on error setting, turned off fast boot in BIOS, and ran System File Checker (sfc /scannow) and the first time I ran it, it found some corrupted files and repaired them. Then a few days later, when I would shut down the computer, it would restart instead, and end up with the same repair message. I would reset the computer, and the first couple of times it would work fine and go right into Windows.

Q: What is affirmative action, or race conscious admissions policies?Ī: Race conscious policies, such as affirmative action, aim to address racial discrimination by recognizing and responding to the structural barriers that have denied underrepresented students access to higher education. The American Civil Liberties Union, ACLU of Massachusetts, and ACLU of North Carolina filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to uphold universities’ ability to consider race in college admissions earlier this year.īelow, we answer some of the key questions that you need to know about how race conscious admissions policies work, how students and universities benefit from them, and what’s at stake at the Supreme Court. If the court strikes down affirmative action - also known as race-conscious admissions policies - it would make it unconstitutional for universities across the country to consider a student’s race as one factor in a holistic admissions review process. Supreme Court is set to hear two cases concerning affirmative action today. But now, the Supreme Court could change all of this. ![]() For decades, Harvard, UNC, and other universities have had the ability to consider a student’s race along with a wide range of other factors - academic merit, athletics, extra curriculars, and others - when it comes to deciding whether to admit a student. After over a hundred years of total or near total exclusion of Black students and other students of color, the University of North Carolina and Harvard began admitting larger numbers of students, including students of color, in the 1960s and 70s. ![]() Don’t worry that it’s actually located in Albuquerque, NM.

Parallel Light: there is no shadow behind the light source in Redshift Cinerender Redshift cannot render other shapes, or the light cannot illuminate Light Sources and Objects Area Light: it only works with Rectangle and Disc shapes in Redshift Glass - Lamp: the surface will not illuminate nearby surfaces.Water - Wavy/ Pond: Reflectance channel should be turned off.Pavement - Brick Moss: the texture can be fine-tuned without using the first Noise layer in the Color channel (Surface Settings) or by modifying the Noise layer's Blend Mode and Blend Strength value.To avoid this, the Reflectance channel should be turned off (other metals may differ from defaults due to alpha and reflectance layers) Metal - Nickel: the texture becomes black in the render.Insulation - Fiberglass: Alpha channel in Surface Settings should be turned off.Concrete - 02: rendering with Low quality preset will result in much worse texture (higher quality will provide better texture backing).Foliage - Wild grapes / Leaves Tree Small: the sun highlights the texture, thus Reflectance channel should be turned off in Surface Settings.Air: Color layer in the Alpha channel doesn't work, the texture is completely invisible in the rendering.Other channels only work in a simplified way (not all additional parameters will work)įor the default basic textures, it is recommended to have the following settings: To render transparency, it is recommended to turn off Image Alpha option. Shader Effect and Sketch: may not work correctlyĪlpha channel may not work as expected on macOS Procedural: mostly misalignment of the texture Gradient: complete misalignment of the texture in case of 3D types CinerenderĬolorizer, Filter, Fusion, Layer, Posterizer: these are texture options that are built on other textures so there may be inconsistencies Fresnel: it will override the surface texture Cinerender There is also inconsistency between the use of different layers. In case you need to use more layers, the mix between them may not work well. But with this combination, effects and textures can work well together (but they can be channel-dependent). In the case of the first layer, some blending options still don't work (like Sat, Burn, Color, Dodge). With two layers, it works if the second layer's blending mode is Normal. The hierarchy between layers doesn't appear because the blending mode between multiple layers works inconsistently. Nevertheless, it brings significant benefits in terms of performance compared to Cinerender.Īt the current stage of development, the following phenomena can be experienced when using Redshift: I. Redshift is currently included as a Technology Preview with a few limitations in Archicad 25. |
