Many of these frameworks were written over the 17+ years of history of World of Warcraft during a time when mobile wasn’t a consideration. The biggest hurdle in implementing new features was structuring the necessary frameworks to support the feature. In our previous Engineer’s Workshop covering the development of the WoW Companion App, we delved into the intricacies of creating a system simultaneously for both mobile and PC platforms. In light of the change in direction, we moved on to the development of the current WoW Companion App, which provides a more secure experience more in line with the types of activities your character takes on when you log in to play the game today. While there were ways that we could and often did mitigate the effect, the ongoing negative impact from those who sought to exploit the system outweighed continuing to support ongoing development. This was largely due to the number of queries that could flood the auction house resulting in strained servers as they attempted to manage the larger load. Due to the way this app was built, there were times in which individuals would abuse the architecture of the app, often causing a disruption to the player economy and even, in some cases, causing in-game latency. The Remote Auction House was once a part of the WoW Armory app released in 2011 and retired in 2018. With the 9.2.7 patch, it becomes a part of the WoW Companion App. It’s been some time since the Auction House was available to mobile users, but the time has come for its return.

Of course we feel these tricks are dirty tactics and dishonest and need to be disallowed in our industry. Unfortunately its the consumer that loses out as this fake presentation of speed only serves the gaining ISP. Some ISP’s have been making themselves look good on the Speed Test websites by downgrading traffic from competitors (like us) in order to generate more sales. Think about the VW emissions scandal and how they created “defeat devices” in order to fool the tests. You can run tests yourself on both and see the huge difference in reported speeds, all by changing out Adobe Flash.Īnti-competitive Measures We now often see ISP’s deliberately slowing down traffic from a competitor in a bid to make themselves look better. Well, that also affects your speed test results. Firefox doesn’t even support Flash anymore, that tells you how outdated that technology is. The Speed Test Websites Themselves Some sites runs on the outdated Adobe Flash, and some without Flash. This is because many providers have either throttled back the amount of “free” bandwidth that they are using for their servers, or have decided only to support up the likes of 100MB as that is the highest speed that the provider currently supports to their customers.Ī good example is BT’s own Broadband Performance Test, in which even they say it cannot be tested for connections above 330MB. We generally find that when you try to test anything over 100MB, many sites bottom out and say its only 100MB when it could be even 500Mb that you have. Many speed test sites were designed for consumer grade ADSL (asymmetrical) – not wide band and fully synchronous lines. It also had high latency, and was running over SSL so had those overheads too which degrade speeds. Many volunteers who host the speed test servers don’t have dedicated bandwidth set aside to actually deliver the bandwidth you need for that test, as quite often volunteers tend to use spare bandwidth that is not being used at that time, a concept which of course is fundamentally flawed. We found that more accurate than some, but when we tested it, it was capped at 90Mbps download and 150Mbps upload, but totally useless for 100Mbps+ lines. Think of a car race whereby your car does 200 mph but the one measuring you can only do 100 mph, once you go over 100 Mph, how can the testing car say you did or didn’t manage to get to 200 mph? Quite often the server is connected on a 1Gbps or 10Gbps connection, but if there are 50 other people using it at the same time, how can it actually test you at say 350 Mbps if it does not have it to give? The Speed Test Server’s Connection The connection between you and the Speed Test server might not be capable of measuring the speed you require, for example, the servers bandwidth might already be used up providing other Speed Test measurements to others. In this case, the Speed Test server simply does not have the bandwidth in the first place to measure your speeds. During busy times, the Speed Test server itself may actually be too busy (serving other speed tests to other users) to serve you in any reliable way and can produce inaccurate results. The Speed Test Server Itself Quite often the actual speed test servers are hosted in a virtualised environment, meaning that the owners are running many servers on a single physical computer. Here is a breakdown of what can affect your reported speed: It’s not our intention to compete against a volunteer hosting a website in return for adverting money.Īll the speed-test website’s actually do is download a small set of files from a remote server and provide a number or dial on the screen as a “guesstimate”, but it doesn’t have any scientific calculations behind it.īy doing the test, your not actually testing your internet speed, your performing a test to a specific server somewhere on the internet, a place in which you’ll probably never visit again, i.e as part of your normal usage. Speed Test sites are usually hosted by volunteers who use “spare” bandwidth on their network in return for free advertising or to help their own customers achieve better speed results. Speed test sites were really on designed to give an indicative idea and not conclusive answer and are volunteered by other people with no guarantee or SLA as to their capability, so therefore cannot be relied on. We often get asked by customers as to why speeds vary across the various website speed tests and also in some cases misreport the actual speeds being delivered to a customer. There are many reasons why such sites are not as accurate as one may think. These were composed around 1718−1720, when Vivaldi was the court chapel master in Mantua. The Four Seasons ( Italian: Le quattro stagioni) is a group of four violin concertos by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, each of which gives musical expression to a season of the year. The movement is inscribed “Crossing the ice – Moving carefully and anxiously – Falling to the ground – Striding bolding on – The Sirocco – The North wind and all other winds.” Wild description is only matched by sheer invention as Vivaldi achieves an amazing conclusion to a great work of genius.Set of four violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi Antonio Vivaldi (engraving by François Morellon de La Cave, from Michel-Charles Le Cène's edition of Vivaldi's Op. The Finale, an Allegro, again takes us outdoors, with a vengeance. The following Largo depicts “the Rain,” though from the comfort of a warm fireside. Winter: The Allegro first movement is quite hilarious, as witness the inscription: “Dreadful storm – Running and foot stamping because of the cold – winds – chattering of teeth.” Vivaldi’s art of description here reaches its acme. “The fleeing beast – guns and hounds – The fleeing beast is slain,” are all represented with an odd dignity. The last movement, an Allegro, describes the pleasures of the chase. “The Sleeping Drunkard,” the Adagio second movement, is remarkably lively in spite of its title, suggesting that Vivaldi was carried away with his invention of a beautiful theme. Entitled “Summer Storm,” it is a veritable tempest.Īutumn: The Allegro is inscribed “Dance and song of country folk – the Toper,” begins with innocent rusticity, and then becomes increasingly bibulous. The third movement, a Presto, fulfils the promise of bad weather. The Adagio slow movement is simply entitled “Flies and Bluebottles.” Boldly experimental, the music depicts the harvester in repose with a storm gathering in. Summer: The Allegro first movement, “Languor caused by the heat – the Cuckoo – the Turtledove – the Goldfinch – Gentle Zephyrs – Various winds – the North-Wind – Young Countryman’s Lament,” is absolutely filled with events, somewhat obscuring the Rondo form, but the description is superb. The Allegro third movement is simply inscribed “Country Dance.” The violas become the bass instruments, and delightfully, represent the barking dog with a repeated figure. The second movement, a Largo, describes “A sleeping goatherd – Rustling of foliage – The dog barks – The goat-herder and his faithful dog.” Under the beautiful violin solo, the cellos and harpsichord are silent. Spring: Marked Allegro, the first movement is inscribed, “Spring’s awakening – Song of the birds – The Springs gush out – Thunder – The song of the birds.” In the Baroque Rondo form, this movement is in five sections, fluidly descriptive. The original score has the appropriate phrases printed in. The sonnets themselves are rather pedestrian, at least in translation, but Vivaldi enshrined them in the richest surroundings. The inspiration for The Four Seasons came from a set of four anonymous sonnets, from which Vivaldi took descriptive phrases to direct the development of musical ideas. Vivaldi combined the structure of the solo concerto with the musical depiction of events found in nature, with telling results. The Four Seasons were boldly experimental when they were published in 1725. Since then, enthusiasm has hardly wavered. At a time when music was comparatively ephemeral, Vivaldi’s Four Seasons outlived musical fashion to such an extent that Rousseau, some thirty-five years after Vivaldi’s death, produced a flute transcription for publication. Vivaldi, producing in his career something over four hundred concertos, achieved in this set of four linked violin concertos a work of transcendent quality that completely overshadowed not only his own other efforts, but most of the concertos of his contemporaries. Yet The Four Seasons, after some sixty years of regular performance, appears to be as well-loved as ever. Generally, when a work is as resoundingly popular as The Four Seasons, there is a very great danger that it will become hackneyed sooner or later. Le quattro stagioni (The Four Seasons) (1723) Four, having the bulb in a fixture that does not let it disperse the heat it gives off (too closed up). Third, changes in voltage from the Electric Company (including spikes, and surges). Second, there could be a loose or otherwise bad connection somewhere in the line. The more common include: First, the bulb not making good contact in its socket. Q: Why do my bulbs burn out so quickly? A: Bulbs burn out prematurely for a number of reasons. For example E27 means the diameter is 27mm. Q: What does the specification under the compatible bulbs, such as E27, E26, E14, etc mean? How to choose the right ones for my chandelier? A: The specification such as E27, E26 means the diameter of the bulb base in millimeters.
Moss: Book II on PSVR picks up precisely where the original Moss left off-meaning, if you’re planning to play Book II, you should probably start with the original game first. SteamVR Now Supports Automatic Controller Binding, Making Weird VR Controllers a Little Less Weird That could be a boon for this game in particular, as Moss: Book II’s beautifully composed mouse-sized environments contain intricate details that could be easier to appreciate with the higher resolution display-though we’ll have to see if the game’s textures on Quest 2 can hold up to that added scrutiny. In fact, Moss: Book II is likely to look sharper on Quest 2’s higher resolution display (1,832 × 1,920 per-eye) compared to PSVR’s rather dated display (960 × 1,080 per-eye). The studio also showed the first look at the game as it will look on Quest 2.Īssuming that the trailer is showing an accurate representation of the game’s geometric and texture detail as it will run on Quest 2… it appears pretty darn close to what the game looks like even when backed by the more powerful PS4/PS5. Today during the Quest Gaming Showcase, developer Polyarc announced that Moss: Book II is due for a release date on Quest 2 this summer (a PC VR version, however, has not yet been announced). And now it looks like the sequel, Moss: Book II, which first launched for PSVR on April 5th this year, is set for a similarly quick jump to another platform. Original Article (April 21st, 2022): Action-platformer Moss originally launched as a timed exclusive on PSVR back in 2018, but just four months later it made its way to PC VR too (eventually landing on the original Quest in 2019). The original article announcing its summer launch window follows below: In addition, Polyarc has today opened pre-orders for the Moss: Book II Official Soundtrack (OST), composed by two-time BAFTA award-winning composer Jason Graves. Update (June 9th, 2022): Polyarc today announced during UploadVR’s Summer Showcase that Moss: Book II is exiting PSVR exclusivity and coming to Quest 2 on July 21st. It’s reminiscent of traditional children’s fairy tales, which means that while there aren’t any notable plot twists or meaning of life quandaries, it’s still pleasant to sit through even if you’re on the older end of the age spectrum of gamers.Having received a strong reception on PSVR back at the end of March, Moss: Book II from developer Polyarc is now set to release on Quest 2 starting next month. While the title isn’t the video game equivalent of Oscar bait, Quill’s journey from being a mouse with a mission to a mouse that’s achieved its mission is interesting enough. The smattering of puzzles, too, are also a welcome addition that necessitate VR’s 3D environments while remaining straightforward and non-intensive.Īnd it certainly helps that Moss: Book II’s story is enjoyable as well. However from a gameplay perspective, the game is ultimately as enjoyable as its said competitors because it asks very little of you in terms of real world physical movement. Combat isn’t overly intense because of its quasi-third person perspective. Unlike the other small handful of child-oriented VR games, it’s relaxing to explore the game’s linear story while remaining seated. It’s a weird way to make use of the capabilities of virtual reality to be sure, but thankfully it works surprisingly well. When cutscenes end, you’re able to control Quill with the Quest’s joysticks, order the fluffy fur-tagonist to attack with the controller’s buttons and occasionally manipulate the environment for puzzles with movement controls all while having a 3D view of the game’s environments. In “cutscenes”, all you need to do is flip through pages with your Quest controllers (or presumably your PlayStation VR ones, the details of which you can read about here) while sitting on your most comfortable real life chair. However, instead of directly controlling the mouse, you play as someone who’s reading its story while directing the mouse during combat and navigation sequences.Īssuming that you haven’t played the first Moss game, this may seem a tad confusing, but thankfully it’s a lot more straightforward than it initially appears. Said book, which is technically the second in its series after the original Moss, tells the story of a mouse named Quill that’s tasked with saving a dead kingdom. Instead, it’s a weird mixture of fairy tales and Fable that puts you in control of someone who’s reading a children’s adventure book. Unlike the majority of virtual reality-exclusive games, Moss: Book II isn’t an immersive first person shooter.
