  1. Ingredients 2 cups whole milk 1 clove, minced garlic 1 vanilla bean 1 cup heavy cream 1 1/2 cups sugar 8 egg yolks Cooking Directions Combine milk, garlic, vanilla pod and seeds into a saucepan over medium heat. Once the mixture starts boiling go ahead and remove it immediately. Place 8 egg yolks in a mixing bowl, add the cream and sugar and whisk until well combined. Slowly temper the egg mixture with the hot milk mixture by adding ¼ cup at a time over a strainer Add the mixture back into the pan and make sure to keep stirring over low heat until the mixture thickens in about 10-12 minutes (it is imperative not to boil the mixture) Pour into a bowl and chill the mixture for 6 hours in the fridge Once mixture is cooled, pour into ice cream machine (be sure to follow the manufacturer’s directions) Get into that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans Gogo.........

  3. Hello @ all! I'm new to the forums and at first I want to thank you for your work on this lovely game developed so many years ago - your work is really impressive! Yesterday I tryed the new 160 Beta Patch via LAN with my girlfriend and while it was working fine for me, she is experiencing real problems: First the game started up and everything seemed fine, I changed some gfx-options and when I hit the "accept" button in the menue, the game crashed... So I killed the (still running) task from the task-manager and tried to start it up again, but in the moment the intro should show up the game crashes again - nothing I can do about it anymore (tried everything you mentioned in this thread, also with options.txt and so on). So I copied the whole Sacred 2 Gold Edition folder from my PC to hers and yeah, it started up again! We ignored the gfx-settings and started playing - everything fine for about an hour, then she accidentially alt+tabbed out of the game and the game crashed again. Since then it's like before - the game crashes on startup when the intro should show up... We have played together with the 150 community patch long time before and everything was fine, so we deactivated the 160 Patch and the game starts up again... Activated the 160 patch - crashed again on startup.... My System: Intel Core i7 4970x4 4Ghz, 16GB RAM, Geforce gtx 980 ti My girlfriends system: AMD Phenom 2x6 1090T 3,2 GhZ, 16GB RAM, Geforce gtx 650 ti I've installed the newest version of all drivers on the systems. I've also looked into the windows event-log like mentioned above and I attach the errors most showing up (most of them repeating a lot of times because I tried get it running the whole day, so I only added them one time). I hope you can help and thanks again for your amazing work! event-log.txt Update 1: We now retry playing the game while we plug off her headset - the game started up again now, I tell you our experience afterwards... Update 2: After she Alt-Tabbed out of the game there is the same issue as before... Game crashed and now it crashes on startup again... If I should try something else, please tell me...

  4. Run eventvwr.msc, then open Windows Logs -> App Logs. Search for error events with Sacred 2 directory in the description. Try the following: your brother starts the LAN game session, then you join it. I keep all changes as iterations of the dlls and can always backtrack things. That experimental tweak slipped in between two minor iterations in the early stage of the effort. Don't recall, why it stayed - it was about 4 AM.

  6. Here's all you need to know about how hard/long I work and have no life. Just for reference most companies that lease new vehicles will charge extra for any mileage over 12,000 miles. If you drive a lot that number isn't that hard to hit. My work van has over 250,000 miles on it and it's a 2008. Getting a new one soon (before year is out). So on my van its about 31,000 miles a year. My personal truck was a 2004 and I just went over 55,000 miles on it. So a little over 4,000 miles a year. Yup that's it...now if you figure in it's a 10 mile round trip each day for work and approximately 260 work days per year. That's 2600 miles just for commute...so I have about 1400 miles a year for non-work stuff. Weekly dump run is about 10 miles too so at least 40 of them for another 400 gone. So about 1000 miles a year on misc. stuff. That is all work and no play lol. Or another way to look at it. That's about 3 miles a day for errands I easily average 50+ hours a week at work and routinely go over 60-70. Worst I ever did was 45 days straight and working 12+ hours each day. We had a huuuuge project and their project manager moved up finish date by 4 months. We had nothing in the contract to stop him from doing it, so we had to bite the bullet and work like crazy. Lesson was learned and that can never happen again. Gave my daughter my truck as I was barely using it. Been using work van for commute as I often leave very early in the morning to get to job site. Sometimes I visit shop only 2-3 times a week. Mostly to re-stock and drop off paperwork. But I like being busy and guess could be called a 'work-aholic'. Probably being working til the day I die. I cannot see me retired and weaving baskets or painting landscapes.

  7. You and me both. Don't sweat it. New version is uploaded. Change log is updated too. This version includes some updated dll's that should help with resource handling and CTD's in windowed mode. The new version also reverses the changes to Combat Alert and Reflective Emanation on minions. These fx are restored to vanilla designs, with the problematic FPS drops associated with them removed. In fact, all buff FX that were causing FPS drops should now be silky smooth. Thanks Dmitriy for sticking it out and finding the solution. Finally, the new icon for ports is included. It is a combination of the portal and mini-portal icons.

  8. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat !! I went and looked and luckily my pc isn't included in the sale....would have been a little upset I missed another sale by mere weeks. It looks like the AMD Area 51 is 10% off but not the one with Intel processor. I prefer Intel anyways so no biggie for me I'm awesome at missing sales...few years ago I bought 2 Samsung S6's for me and the kiddo and literally a few days later they had a special for buy one/get one free. I was soooo mad, went back and I guess I might have scared them a bit as they hurriedly refunded my original purchase..there are advantages to being a 6'6" 260 lb ugly guy with a very deep voice lol
