What is ragdoll effect?

Ragdoll is like a manikin.

When you release a ragdoll from any support, it crumbles to the ground.


so when in gaming terms it means let the physics dictate the dead bodies falling directions and how they fall.
in a way creating different falling actions every time.

been around since Quake 1, i think.

Oh, like a ragdoll? But for me, as long as the enemies/zombies fall and died, good enough. sweat.gif

haha not fun if they fall death the same way 10000000 times.
best is still death animation combined with ragdolls.

it's free, but it's quite old. dun seem to have any updates on it nowadays.

Droid shooting - also another game that's quite addictive nowadays if you have a swivel chair available to you.

I mean it use US dollar as marker right? u know put on table so the camera can scan it, if i dont have one dollar bill how, i play just now using my laptop screen to display the 1 dollar jpg picture but nicer if can put on table and i dont have to depend on my laptop screen.

Why dont it update with more "marker", sing dollar at least i got

like i said, it's a really old app with minimal updates liao. the studio dun seem to be following up anymore.

there are a few currencies in the options for your marker.

I just printed a large 1 USD bill on A4 paper to play lol

I did a factory reset on my phone over the weekend.

Not only the ICS UI became super smooth once again, the battery life also improved tremendously for reasons unknown.

Use to eat up 4% per hour on standby, here is the current battery consumption. as of this morning.

feels like new phone =)

What will you lose when doing factory reset? Contacts? SMS? Pictures? Apps? Or the reset just for setting only?
*
I didnt lose anything, backed up everything with PC Companion.

Just the Apps need to redownload but was done in a flash on Unifi.

<3 the phone now.

I read on xperia blog that the update unable to download is a problem worldwide, so we just have to wait till sony fix it, i guess.

Anyone have face the vibration problem ,before update to new firmware ,it don't have any problem ,after update ,the vibration cannot work ,I switch on already !!!

I think there the last time my girlfriend's phone had this problem on her S2, i removed her battery and put it back in, it fixed.

for your case, try to hold power+volume up until you feel 3 vibrations to reset the phone.

see if it helps.

No, I've never been that kiasu asking for ICS when on GB, asking for JB when on ICS rolleyes.gif
I'll wait until the firmware becomes stable. Not asking much.
GB is working perfectly for me, so there's no rush.

good attitude =)
we are just greedy for new OS version lah XD

hi, here:

http://www.pcworld.com/article/250040/how_...oid_device.html

hope it helps.



BTW guys, i had a good scare last night while charging on USB connected to a USB Hub.

My phone suddenly went dead WHILE CHARGING. LED showing red and couldnt turn on at all.

Later found out that the battery was drained even though it was still connected and charging. see screen shot below.

seems that the quality of the charge is very important to our phone.
Anyway it's back to normal after i charged it with power outlet.

full time wifi, no wonder battery drop fast.
did the phone get hot?
*
I'm always on full time WIFI, never had a problem until that time.
you realised my battery drops incredibly fast at the end of that chart, when my phone was charging on USB?

Anyway, i maintain the quality of charge now by only charging via power outlet. seems to have a more stable battery life.







on a seperate issue, i'd like to share something i just fixed.

I have noticed that my phone internet is extremely slow and i get error 500 all the time when i try to download from play store or when try to surf internet on 3G.

Turns out that the automatic internet and MMS settings from Maxis is flawed.

The fix is simple, just go to the APN settings and remove the proxy IP (not the MMS proxy) and it's fixed. damn, been bothering me for a few months now only found a fix yesterday.

I hope no one else is having the same issue but if you do, the fix is quite simple.

hahah congrats guys. maybe the 3G network is not as sucky as we think it is. but our carriers have shitty settings for our phones.

anyway, i also noticed a great improvement on my battery life on 3G after that fix. maybe the phone is no longer suffocating looking for a good signal.
haha.

<3 the phone all over again
