But when the next scene is loaded I can't move my player. I tried to keep PlayerActions in a Singleton and put into each player. How is the best way to use the same PlayerActions between scenes? I checked (marked) InControl to be "Dont't destrou on load". Then pass all those of lower value directly to InControl’s GetControl() with a cast and handle the additions with calls to the properties. You could even copy InControl’s enum wholesale (if you want all the entries) and tack on the additional four at the end with explicit high values to leave room if InControl’s grows in the future. properties still exist, there just aren’t entries in the InputControlType enum for them. So that said, I think your best bet is to create your own enum and switch on it to pull from InControl. Adding them back creates confusing situations to users in general such as they wouldn’t work with the bindings API, or in device profile mappings. ![]() I’m sorry it broke your system-I do try hard not to make breaking changes, but this one seemed necessary and it affected very few users. In any event, you don't really need to use XInput unless you're running into a problem or need the features it provides.Ĭlick to expand.Yes, I made that change to support the new bindings system and it simplified a lot of the internal implementation.

It could even be that it's working the other way around. Although usually there's some kind of error in the console when the DLLs can't be found. If you're using Unity 4, you might need to copy the DLLs to the root of your project. If you know your way around code, converting existing scripts to use InControl should be very easy, and I am more than happy to assist with any technical questions or support issues you may have.Click to expand.You might just take a look at and make sure you have all the required steps completed. That said, InControl has a simple API that will make getting cross platform controller support into your game much, much easier. This is a C# asset intended for use in C#. InControl is known to work with JavaScript / UnityScript, but no guarantee or thought is given to such compatibility.I will not convert other assets to use InControl for you.

It is certainly not a drop in replacement for Unity's Input class. While there are a few editor shortcuts to help you get set up, it requires actual code to use.

Happy Fourth of July! The burgers are prepped, the brownies are out of the oven, and the Miss Firecracker Contest is about to begin! Carnelle Scott, a self-conscious orphan raised by her aunt, desperately wants this July 4th to bring her a chance at a new life as this year’s crowned Miss Firecracker, if only to remove the stain of her other title, the town’s “Miss Hot Tamale.” With the return of her beautiful cousin, Elain, a former Miss Firecracker herself, and Elain’s brother, the mentally questionable Delmount, the pressure is on.

Enter the brilliant Sherlock Holmes and his loyal sidekick Dr. A ferocious beast has been terrorizing the Baskerville family for generations and Sir Henry Baskerville is next on its list. These two tracks are noticeably stripped-back, with quieter central vocals taking prominence in the mix, and lush instrumentation acting more as a support to the singers. I was also impressed by softer-sounding songs, such as The Next 20th Century by Father John Misty and It’s Called: Freefall by Rainbow Kitten Surprise. The bass presence was particularly noticeable in The Weeknd’s High for This, with the hazy, thick, synths in the introduction coming through particularly strong. From how these things look, you would expect pop hits from the likes of Doja Cat, The Weeknd, Willow, and Florence + The Machine to sound full, and fortunately, this kind of music sings with this headset. Listening to music with the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 Pro is a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I could be heard when chatting to the squad, and that’s the most important thing, after all, but you wouldn’t use this for anything other than that. As someone who owns a lot of audio recording equipment, I was unphased by the average but expected output of the cardioid mic. However, considering this headset is geared at streamers and content creators, who will likely invest in a separate mic, it’s unlikely to be much of an issue. It sounds fine but it’s certainly no replacement for the best USB microphones on the market. I’m still not fully sold on the microphone that comes with the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 Pro. I was also pleasantly surprised to hear enemy footsteps as they climbed the stairs underneath me, meaning that I could take out my would-be aggressor as they arrived at the top of the staircase. Sniping from the top of the antenna tower on the Caspian Border map made for a true test of the in-ear drivers, capturing the sky-piercing screech of my SWS-10 rifle round as it connected with its target, the bullet’s trajectory ending with a suitably meaty thunk. I spent a fair few hours deeply invested in Battlefield 2042’s Team Deathmatch and Conquest modes to great success. Shooters are a joy with this gaming headset. As someone who’s ridden their fair share of bikes in the past, it was nice to get to really hear what an engine hum really sounds like at speed. ![]() In the former, I found myself being braver with tighter corners knowing I could hear the quick shifter engage accurately. Everything from the subtle gear changes of my Yamaha R1 in Ride 4, to the suitably brutal single-leg takedowns in UFC 4 made a fair bit of difference to my performance. Where the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 Pro delivers on most is in competitive titles. I’ve widely considered the 2008 original title to have some of the most atmospheric sound design of any modern horror game, and this was reflected well in one moment involving a vacuum in space as the sounds were heavily muted in flux seamlessly. ![]() In my testing, I found that Isaac Clarke’s heavy footsteps aboard the USG Ishimura in Dead Space carried the right amount of weight, with the distant wailing of Necromorphs, and slamming doors on floors below captured accurately. The sound quality across the board is excellent for the under $200 / £200 / AU$300 price range, as this model punches well above its weight. That’s not to take away from the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 Pro. My ears are well-tuned to the feel and the depth of sound that the 50mm Titanium TriForce drivers deliver, as the aforementioned V3 HyperSense had been my daily driver for well over a year now. Testing the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 Pro on my PS5 and my Razer Blade 15, one of the best gaming laptops, I was generally impressed. ![]() tesa ACX plus consists of a high performance acrylic adhesive with optimum viscoelastic properties offers an excellent bond, even on low surface energy substrates.

It consists of a tackifiedĪcrylic adhesive for a well-balanced performance on a wide variety of surfaces Tesa® 65610 Removable is a double-sided PE foam tape equipped with a PET reinforcement film. The PET reinforcement film protects the foam backing from deformation, when removed from the substrate, while high density PE foam backing is used to avoid foam splitting. The removable (covered) side is equipped with a pure acrylic adhesive, specially developed for applications requiring removability. Even after a long period of time, there is no significant increase of peel adhesion. Tesa® 65605 mounting tape offers excellent peel adhesion on multiple surfaces, including steel, aluminum, glass, and PVC. The covered side of this tape removes residue free and can be re-used (up to 5 times). In addition, both features work well on many non-delaminating surfaces. Since signs and visual boards are often magnetically fastened, their use is limited to metal surfaces. However, with the newly developed, multi use tesa® 65605, removable signs can be mounted and demounted to and from a wide variety of surfaces - removing the restriction of metal and magnatised surfaces. Tesa® 65605 is a double sided polyethylene (PE) foam tape with a permanent adhesive on the open side and a removable adhesive on the covered side. The special formulation of the adhesive makes residue free removal possible. Tesa® has introduced two removable foam tapes, the multi use removable double sided foam tape, tesa® 65605 and the single use removable tesa® 65610. For POS and sign manufacturers to tradeshow booth fabricators, clean and easy removal of mounting tapes is essential. In today’s fast-paced global economy, companies increasingly need the ability to securely mount signs, labels, visual boards, and other bonded parts for extended periods of time – then remove these elements without leaving behind unsightly foam residue.

Harrison explains the sonic ebb and flow of the label as like “a really long mix”: “That’s how we imagine the 7” series going. “Who they think would be good on the label is all about their perception of the label, not ours, and it’s really interesting how the community actually contributes to the ongoing creative process of the label.” “What’s lovely about friends, contacts and colleagues putting us in touch with other friends and contacts is other people’s interpretation of the ZamZam vibe,” says Ereckson. Tracy Harrison and Ezra ‘E3’ Ereckson Photography by: ZamZam Sounds As the label built upon Ereckson and Harrison’s existing connections with scenes in Bristol and elsewhere, the A&R direction of the label took on a community aspect they hadn’t anticipated (they cite Ossia as key in this regard). Long serving steppers crews such as Disciples, Twilight Circus and Alpha & Omega sit alongside artists such as Beat Pharmacy, Jack Sparrow and Von D who cool their usual techno and dubstep tendencies to embrace the ZamZam vibe. Now with a catalog some 60 releases deep, ZamZam stands proud as an essential outpost for contemporary dub that reaches into different tempos and energies while retaining a discernible roots element. Part of the vision with the visual aesthetic and the strictly 7” format, that’s such a unified vibe in itself it gives us more latitude to reach more broadly in terms of the sounds.” “Not stray too much into dancehall or hip-hop like we did with B.S.I., but still touching on a lot of different aspects of dubwise. “We were clear from the beginning that we wanted to keep it a little bit tighter,” Ereckson says. After taking some time off, Ereckson and Harrison re-emerged with a concise concept behind ZamZam Sounds: a strictly 7” series that called upon their oldest dub-minded allies and fellow Portland-based operators like Strategy and Gulls. Records forged strong connections with WordSound Records in New York and the likes of Muslimgauze, Alpha & Omega and Henry & Louis in the UK, but the collapse of their distributor at the turn of the millennium saw their stock wiped out and a successful run cut short. ![]() “It’s interesting how the community contributes to the creative process of the label” Ezra ‘E3’ Ereckson Whether it’s Martin Hannett’s splashy FX surges on ESG’s ‘Moody’, the global creep of Adrian Sherwood’s production on African Head Charge, Imagination’s tripped out Night Dubbing remix album or Grace Jones’ adventures into ’80s island boogie with Sly & Robbie, dub has crept into all kinds of iconic music over the years. Beyond the pioneering work of King Tubby and Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, dub has infected pivotal music movements from post punk and industrial through to boogie, house, jungle and trip-hop. It’s hard to overstate the impact dub has had on contemporary music production. ![]() Not all of these protagonists are in direct contact or collaboration, but they share admiration for each others’ work. “Dub will find you,” Davies retorts.ĭavies and Opland are part of a loose-fit network of artists and labels spread across the globe that, to varying degrees, take the principles of dub and apply them to strange new shapes. “Dub is the act of taking stuff away and using the mixing desk as a tool, so it applies to a lot of music.” ![]() “I think of dub as having gone through most things that we dance to these days, or listen to at home,” Davies adds. It’s a Monday night and we’re sat upstairs in The Surrey Vaults, a Bristol pub that has incubated just the kind of experimentation both labels deal in. Davies is a Young Echo member and co-founder of No Corner Records, while Opland runs Bokeh Versions. Between them, both are involved in exciting, unconventional permutations of dubwise music. “Dub techniques are so infectious, whether it’s using a delay or pushing the bass to the forefront – that already pretty much is dub,” Daniel Davies, aka Ossia, says to Miles Opland. Oli Warwick meets some of the artists and labels that still find promise in dub’s methodology. Across the globe, numerous boutique imprints are building on the dub template and pushing it into unusual places, from Jahtari’s mischievous 8-bit digi-dub to Bokeh Versions’ abstract experimentation. The influence of dub reggae has been a constant in electronic music for decades now, propping up jungle, dubstep, ambient music and techno with its bass-heavy swagger. ![]() ![]() “Defendant Waltine Nauta has submitted to chambers a motion to continue the pretrial conference the Court has scheduled for Jat 10:00 a.m.,” their motion reads. The DOJ, as Politico’s Kyle Cheney reports, immediately responded, opposing the delay. “With little notice to Defendant Nauta, the operative indictment in this matter was returned in this District and only recently, on Wednesday, July 5, 2023, did Defendant Nauta retain local counsel, Sasha Dadan.” “At all times relevant to this investigation, Defendant Nauta has been represented by an attorney licensed to practice law in the District of Columbia,” the motion claims. ![]() READ MORE: ‘We Are Now Formally Back on Indictment Watch’ With Trump Georgia Grand Jury: Former Federal Prosecutor “Defendant Nauta was indicted on June 8, 2023, in this District, despite the fact that the investigation leading to his indictment had long been conducted by a Grand Jury empaneled in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia,” the motion filed by Nauta’s attorney reads. His arraignment was again delayed because he still had not retained legal counsel in Florida.Īnd now he again is asking for a delay in a pretrial hearting scheduled for July 14, according to Lawfare’s Anna Bower.

The film erroneously portrayed a group of scientists in the Amazon Rainforest being hunted by a giant, green Anaconda - a member of the Eunectus genus of the Boidae family - a thing that just does not happen in real life. ![]() The humorously scientifically inaccurate 1997 American horror film, Anaconda didn’t help with the boa’s public relations campaign, either. The frightening stigma carried by the boa is due to its size-it’s pretty large compared to many common house pets, growing anywhere from 6.5 to 9.6 feet long. Though there are records of injury from a particularly tight squeeze from a boa, these incidents do not represent most interactions with domesticated boas. ![]() But most animals with teeth or fangs - even’s man’s best friend - will strike in self-defense. Harmless might be a stretch, but boas are not generally aggressive creatures. The boa’s lethal reputation is not exactly well-deserved. Image Credit: Piqsels Are Boa Constrictors Dangerous to Humans? See Also: What Do Anacondas Eat in the Wild and as Pets?.Though the scientists did not utilize any means to track brain activity, Boback notes that the lack of blood supply to the brain would likely hasten the rats’ departures.īoas do not need venom to kill their prey they’re armed and dangerous without it. Their potassium levels went through the roof, likely from burst cells, suggesting that they’d gone into cardiac arrest. Within seconds, the rats’ arterial blood pressure dropped, and their venous pressure rose, meaning their hearts could move blood in neither direction. The study was conducted on rats implanted with electrocardiogram electrodes in the arteries, which carry the blood away from the heart, and the veins, which carry the blood back. True to their name, they wrap their bodies around their prey and squeeze the life out of them! A common misconception is that boas kill their prey by suffocation however, scientists have recently discovered that the demise of their prey is quicker and more painless than suffocation.Īs Researcher Scott Boback at Dickinson College in Pennsylvania confirmed, when a boa squeezes down on the body of its target, the force is so great that the body’s blood flow is stopped completely. See Also: Are Ball Pythons Poisonous? All You Need To Know!īoas have no such fangs or venom to speak of.The snake’s venom, on the other hand, is poisonous. The snake itself is not poisonous it’s venomous. If it bites you and you get sick, it’s venomous. In layman’s terms, if you bite something and get sick, it’s poisonous. The word ‘poisonous’ means “causing or capable of death when taken into the body” while ‘venomous’ means “(of an animal) secreting a poisonous substance, usually injected into the body by stinging or biting”. What’s the Difference Between Poisonous and Venomous? However, boas do have teeth and their bite - should you experience it - is painful, but the bite itself is not particularly dangerous. Boa constrictors don’t have fangs and they’re most certainly not venomous. Such is the case of the boa constrictor, who’s primary offensive (and defensive) weapon is right there in its name-constrictor. However, this general stereotype fails to consider some significant variation between species. The boa first strikes at the prey, grabbing it with its teeth it then proceeds to constrict the prey until death before consuming it whole.When most people think of snakes, we think of deadly fangs, lethal venom, and the shaking of a rattlesnake’s tail. ![]() However, they do hunt, particularly in regions with a low concentration of suitable prey, and hunting generally occurs at night. Boa constrictors are ambush predators, so often lie in wait for an appropriate prey to come along, when they attack. It makes their eyes appear milky, blue, or opaque so that the snake cannot see very well, causing it to be more defensive than it might be otherwise. Like all snakes, Boa constrictors in a shed cycle are more unpredictable, because of the substance that lubricates between the old skin and the new one. Their bite can be painful, especially from large snakes, but is rarely dangerous to humans. These snakes strike when they perceive a threat. Boa constrictors often occupy the burrows of medium-sized mammals, where they can hide from potential predators. As semi-arboreal snakes, young Boa constrictors may climb into trees and shrubs to forage however, they become mostly terrestrial as they become older and heavier. They are nocturnal, but they may bask during the day when night-time temperatures are too low. Boa constrictors generally live on their own and do not interact with any other snakes unless they want to mate. |
