The expression “been there – done that” applies to The Poseidon Cyklon more than to any other regulator on the market.Ĭontrolling the power of a massive air flow, astonishingly reaching some 2100 litres/minute is an engineering challenge. In small steps, it has been gradually improved every year, based on both divers’ experiences and technological evolution. The Poseidon Cyklon Junior was introduced in 1958. Only after years and years of actual use by divers around the world will the manufacturer collect all the information which can guarantee a perfect performance under all circumstances. This test represents one single environment the manufacturer may have managed to test perhaps another hundred such situations, which is good but not necessarily enough. When a new regulator is released on the market, it has to pass the EN 250 test. Different environments such as cylinder pressure, diving attitude, depth, temperature, gas, type of water, the diver can have an effect on these functions. ![]() Examples of these functions include inhalation resistance, exhalation bubble distraction, noise and leak tightness – to name just a few. TDA (Thermo Dynamic Antifreeze) ensures that the through- flowing water keeps the ice away, entirely without fluids or extra diaphragms.Ī regulator must possess a set of functions which are unaffected by the different environments it will see during its lifetime. Xstream also has a built in anti freeze protection in its construction. ![]() When the seat is moved upwards by the high pressure, the design causes the upper pressure spring to compress and thus exactly self-balance the powers of pressure. The Xstream regulator is also self-balancing, which gives the same high performance irrespective of the pressure in the cylinder. Unfortunately, varying upstream pressures will either push the ball too forcefullly into the seat or leave it unsecurely loose, giving unbalanced characteristics.īy inventing the oating seat (which automatically repositions the ball) the increased upstream pressure is balanced equally with increased and counter-acting compression forces from the pressure adjustment spring, maintaining the benefits of having a perfect ball as the sealing element. Every engineer knows the benfits of using balls in valve arrangements, since they will never be misplaced and will always end up in their perfect position. The objective design the most reliable HP valve in the world. ![]() Hello SPS i don't mind paying at all (I already have everything, except for the 1 year achievement!! ) I can't speak for everyone, of course, but I think the price is low and I loved a lot of the voices (Scale and Eli are my favorite !) Originally posted by Sad Panda Studios:Hey Panda Peeps! We do our best not to get all corporate-talk in these things, but we take your time (and money) seriously. We adore hearing from you - yes, even the salty stuff if we mess up or do something that seems dodgy at first. We're still just a small indie studio that loves what we do - and hope we can keep making beautiful boys and gorgeous gals for years and 'stay good' in terms of asking for your cash. We're always open to suggestions and critiques, and we know that money is always a touchy subject. We're hoping the super small cost, and the reasons it actually winds up benefitting the game, will help make the request at least make sense. It can break your good vibe for a game to be asked to pay for something. We get it - video games are all about microtransactions these days, and nickel-and-diming you all the time. But we know that may not mean much to you. That’s one of the main reasons why, internally, we opted for this path. The intentionally small purchase helps us gauge, in a very direct way, the popularity of the voice-overs, and helps guide our development strategies going forward. So we have been excited to get the full voice acting into the game! But some people play on mute and don't need to hear the sweet sultry tones of their husbandos and waifus saying they love them. Some people are VERY into the vocal performances (mark all of us Pandas down for that, they're magical). Some stuff has been popular, and some stuff has been unpopular, and we generally stop the unpopular stuff. ![]() If you've been with us for a while, you know that we've tried lots of little variations on what stuff should be free, what stuff should have a cost, how much things should be. However - there are already ways some F2P games want infinity money from their players, so instead we're hoping you'll want to spend maybe $5-$10. We hope it doesn't come as a shock, but we would ideally love to have people pay for the stuff we make. The first thing to quickly cover is just our approach to monetization. It's been a while since we've talked about money and monetization in our games, so this seemed like a good opportunity to open the books a bit, since there have been concerns that we're doing the 'sell-out' thing that companies do, which is never a good idea. We want to jump into a slightly serious business chat about a topic we've heard from you about - specifically our decision to have the Blush Blush Voice Over DLC cost $2. I'm assumed going into this game that a few features of Blush Blush could be monetised and since the game's free from the get go, I'm personally more than willing to pay for content that is entirely optional for the game to actually work. As for why Crush Crush had it for free, well I'd guess that since Crush Crush is infinitely more popular that Blush Blush, the market is there and the game would easily turn a profit without it. ![]() Assuming that they paid the voice actors and it isn't all volunteer work - which I'll admit I haven't checked but I assume it isn't - then paying a bit for full voice acting in a free game is more than worth it. Voice acting is generally rather expensive for games. The game already has voices, but to have the full voice over package, we have to pay for it separately!? Considering Crush Crush had full voice over from the get-go, this seems unfair. Originally posted by Lynuma:Um, just one question: why do we have to BUY the voice over.? The fact that it's "only" 2 bucks isn't the problem. I hope we get to continue for a long time to come, we’re having a great time. Paste: From what I hear, the cast and crew have a collaborative rapport and you’re like family. What’s a typical day on set like?Ĭotrona: It’s very much like a family. In all the best ways, in all the frustrating ways, but I think we really benefit, creatively, from a having such a tight-knit group. We’re far away from Hollywood, we’re not near New York or any of the filming hubs.įirst and foremost, that’s a testament to Robert and the environment of his studio that he created down in Austin. It’s just known from different actors, and throughout the years, anyone that’s had the opportunity to work with Robert-he’s just this touchstone for getting your creative juices flowing again. It doesn’t matter what the role is, it doesn’t matter if it’s a show or movie, just go to Austin and shoot with Robert and you’ll get invigorated, creatively.’ Any actors I spoke to when I was considering this project, they told me to ‘Go. The fact that we’re down there -it’s the same crew that Robert uses for the majority of his career they’re all very familiar with each other and work really quickly as a tight-knit group. For the first two seasons, we all lived in the same place in Austin while shooting. We truly are lucky in a sense that we all do really get along and have a great time. Paste: You and Zane Holtz seem to have a great relationship.Ĭotrona: I love Zane to death and we get along great. We’re very fortunate to get along off camera, and we love working together. ![]() I think we have a similar approach to our work and a similar attitude about this industry and about being actors. We realize how lucky we are and appreciate this opportunity. ![]() In other 4x games you would have so many fleets that you could eventually just stomp each race one at a time as you meet them in MOO and the like because you can have a fleet for each enemy planet and just stomp them all at once. Even if you have the most powerful fleet you can't just waltz over 10 enemy planets in a single turn while playing Ride of the Valkyries in the background. Why this fatigue system on one fleet? It makes sure there is only so much each team can do each turn, a sort of balance. There is a limit, but some wonders (Naval Tradition or something like that) reduce how much you get, and if you build a warp nexus thing (equivalent of roads in this game) you can travel between planets you influence or control without increasing fatigue by one. More fatigue means slightly lower performance in fleet actions. Each time you take an action you increase crew fatigue.

National Post gave it a similar score of eight out of ten, saying that the game "may lack the complexity and nuance of other strategy games, and it feels a bit rough around the edges in places, but its accessibility, terrific turn-based combat, and bite-sized duration combine to create a tempting alternative to a multi-evening marathon campaign." Metro gave it a score of seven out of ten, saying, "Fast-paced and accessible are not words commonly used to describe turn-based strategy games, but Sid Meier's latest is a fun, breezy strategic time killer." GameSpot gave the PC version four stars out of ten, saying "it's a strategy game without strategy, enabling you to sleepwalk your way to triumph." IGN said of the same PC version, " Sid Meier's Starships produces a few good tactical battles before its AI loses steam and its strategy gets frustrating." The iOS version received "generally favorable reviews", while the PC version received "mixed" reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. The game was developed by Meier and a small team at Firaxis. In his concept, Meier wanted to focus on starship creation, including highly configurable ships, and space combat, while providing the player with "a universe filled with interstellar adventure, diplomacy, and exploration". Starships was based on Sid Meier's idea of extending the Beyond Earth setting, in which the player guides the development of one of several human colonies on an alien world, and he considers it a further narrative of that game, exploring the universe and encountering other human colonies and threats it may hold. The game features cross-connectivity features with Beyond Earth for those that own both titles. Spacecraft in the fleet can be highly customized for meeting certain goals. The player will use the fleet to explore the galaxy, meeting other human and alien forces, and dealing with problems through a combination of military, diplomatic, and other strategic options. The game is a stand-alone title but shares the same universe as Civilization: Beyond Earth, putting the player in control of a fleet of space-faring craft. It was released on Mafor Microsoft Windows, OS X, and iOS. Sid Meier's Starships is a turn-based strategy video game developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K. ![]() ![]() Download an official Pomfort user manual in which you will find instructions on how to install, use, maintain and service your product.Īnd do not forget – unsuitable use of a Pomfort product will considerably shorten its lifespan!

More and more professionals are using Premiere Pro (sounds kinda funny to say) but these workflow issues are not up to the task. Can you guess which program had the issue? To prove my point I went to ARRI's website, downloaded ALEXA35 ARRIRAW MXF media and opened in in Resolve 18 (with a screenshot), opened in the new updated Silverstack Labs (with a screenshot) and finally the newest update of Premiere Pro (with a screenshot). Right away I knew that this was an Adobe issue (Not trying to be mean but remember what I said above about professional workflows). They were trying to relink to the originals. About a month later the Post facility sent me a email freaking out saying the Original Camera Negative (ARRIRAW MXF) was corrupt and they couldn't open in Premiere. Resolve 18 was ready to go so I used Resolve for transcoding. I didn't want to use beta software on set. I usually use Pomfort Silverstack Labs but they were still in beta for the new ALEXA35. I had to generate transcodes (ProRes 422LT) for post. I mainly work as a DIT and two months ago worked on a commerical shot on the ALEXA35 in ARRIRAW which uses a new MXF wrapper. I apologize for my rant but want to give you persepective.
