Last few times I've seen my family, I've told them about D&D. My Mother has just asked me to run a small session when I see them next week.

I will be DMing and there will be 5 players: my Mother, two sisters and my sister's husbands.

None of them have played D&D before, all are aware what it is. I'd like to give them pre-written characters so if that's part of the one-shot that'd be even better.

In terms of tone, something a bit more lighthearted would probably go down best but with some kind of serious plot to keep them focused.

Figured I'd ask you guys first if something came to mind before I spend some of my holiday writing it ;)

I found two enchanted weapons, one of them doesn't say the effect on it. This isn't the first time I've seen it either and I'm concerned the effect isn't working correctly? Items I could craft, buy in a shop and find all say "Item of Something" and have a charge bar - but the description lacks any text.

Item that has what I expect

Item that seems to be missing the description

Now I'm wondering, after looking at that - if it's because it's Silver and the extra damage to undead effect is overriding?

When combat seems to start, or I attack or AM attacked, I get a weird micro-freeze that is enough to cause me to miss or get hit. As I'm playing Requiem, this is not ideal.

Here's my load order: http://hastebin.com/petabodira.pas

I was wondering if anyone has had this issue before and knew a fix, or if anyone could spot a potential issue causing it with my load order?

Edit: Enhanced Blood Textures was the issue

Hi guys.

I've just tried the ENB/Graphics mod scene for the first time - usually I could never be bothered to and just stuck to usual gameplay mods.

I've tried various combinations/set ups of the following:

• RealVision

• Climates of Tamriel

• Realistic Nights

• Vivid Landscapes

• Various Texture overhauls

• ELFX

• Cinematic Fire

My issue now is that the game looks rather... Odd. During the sunny weather it all looks great and colorful but nearly every other weather, rain, overcast, etc and especially when it's night time, I just CANNOT see at all. Fire effects don't seem to emit much light and the textures themselves look cartoony/weird.

I've tried them all separately and indepe

Raw weighs 3, cook it and it weighs 9.

Didn't notice until I made some supplies to go travelling with and was suddenly super over encumbered.

Just wondered if this sounded off to anyone and if there was a way to detect what mod has messed the weight up if so?

Most other food items weigh far less so I'm confused as to why Cooked Meat weighs so much.

So I've just tried modding Skyrim for the first time and have tried to make it more realistic/better looking and have really struggled with getting the enb/lighting to work properly.

The lighting finally works and interiors look good to me, interior shot

But as seen in the album above, the exteriors look off... Colours are pretty crazy, massively obvious repeating textures, water is solid blue from far away - it just looks very lackluster compared to the interiors.

I tried to install Vivid Landscapes but no matter what I do, it doesn't show up in my plugins/load o

I played about 80 hours of Vanilla Skyrim.

Then I got the Special Edition for free and tried to play it again. Realised how uninviting the intro and skill trees are and remembered that I cannot be bothered to do it all again.

A friend I trust with game recommendations said he felt the same but Requiem has caused him to put 1200 hours in to the game. He also suggested to use the Alternative start mod to skip the slow start.

Seeing as I'm going to install the original Skyrim back to base - I figured I might as well get some other mods that would be good to use along side these. Only I've been out of the scene so long, I'd like you guys suggestions.

Hi all, I'm trying to make a class that takes requests and processes them on a separate thread. Rather than use threads myself, I figured using the ThreadPool is the far smarter/safer thing to do. However, I have the restriction that these tasks must still be completed in the order they are submitted. This means you can't just throw them at QueueUserWorkItem willy-nilly.

I'm trying to think of a way to essentially do:

• Submit a job to be done - this needs to be FAST as it's coming from the main thread
• If the Class wasn't busy, start it.
• When a job completes, automatically start the next task if any are available. Otherwise, wait for the next time a job is inserted.

The only thing

I get a little confused as especially Life Clerics can wear Heavy Armour. Why would a Cleric go around in Heavy Armour? I always saw them as more of a "priest" style class, which to me is someone in light/no armour.

I'm trying to figure out how to roleplay a Cleric (not done it before) and I have little clue as to things like:

• What's a normal 'job' for them, i.e. do they preach, banish undead, work in 'hospitals'?

• How often do they visit temples/how much time do they spend there?

• How often, if it all, do they hear/speak to their deity? And how strong is their connection to their deity?

• How used to combat are they (we're starting at level 5 - so must have seen some?)

• What trai

I mainly want it as a portable sketchbook, to draw/paint in on the go but also to use as a notebook as I am a big OneNote fan. My ideal use is just whipping it out when bored/on public transport/at a friends/in meetings, and just get to drawing/note taking. I will also occasionally code on it.

I have a massively beefy PC rig already, so I would not use it for things like games, video editing, any kind of compressing, any kind of large media, etc, as I do all that on my PC. I also do most of my 3D modelling and Unity use on PC, and doubt I'd use the surface for either of those.

Would the m3 be enough for something like this? I don't particularly work on massive art projects, mainly sketches

Hi guys, I'm used to C# and using VS 2015 with ASP.NET and the Entity framework. I can pretty much just make a new web project and my computer will already be set up in the MVC style way, with a web server running, etc.

Then it's as simple as including the Entity framework to start working at the DB level to.

I'm looking for a lightweight approach to the same thing with PHP. I.e. I can just install it and get started writing my controllers, models and views.

My current approach to PHP is very dated. With linking to .php files and self-concatenated MySQL created everywhere when interacting with the DB. I personally can't work like that anymore and would like to streamline the process.

Just got a 4K TV and have tried a few games from my desktop on it in 4K.

It works and looks noticeably different but my biggest issue so far is the UI elements become teeny tiny and unreadable from sitting distance.

Not every game has a UI scale option either - is this just an oversight from when the game was made? I.e. there's not a lot I can do?

Now "4k" TVs are more and more common, I was wondering what kind of hardware would be required from a PC to actually output at this resolution at 60 FPS?

I currently have a rig with a 980ti in but I'm pretty sure even that won't be enough (it can do 1080@120 fine and 1440@60 fine - but 4k@60fps is a MASSIVE step up!).

The new shadowplay UI only has options for 30FPS and 60FPS, even though my monitor and game are running at 120 FPS.

Is there no way to get it to record 120 anymore?

I've always played Recon style support in Battlefield, starting back from 2142's recon ball.

Basically you take any high damage one hit rifle and mod it to work close range. So far in BF One that means taking the Infantry class of Rifles, without the scope and hopefully still dominating in the 75m range. Then you PTFO whilst continually shooting flares to cover the objective AND the enemy's current approach direction (to do this effectively in BF one you need a reliable source of ammo - so a friend playing support on comms is excellent).

However, when things are REALLY close, I need to pull out the pistol. You start with I believe the 1911 and I unlocked the Revolver thinking it would be w
