![]() Some things included R2's visual aesthetic was possibly less like a straight up Marble Zone and more like a jungle ruins trope with a heavy emphasis on underground gameplay and gimmicks, such as Amy falling into a(n ant lion) pit early on and shrieking on her way down. The OP is missing this image for whatever reason. There's lots of good information and speculation in this thread we had over the summer. ![]() Sonic CD's my favorite game in the series and R2 is the one missing link I want more than anything else left to discover in 90's Sonic, but it's going to feel wrong if it's not using the right BGM, I'll admit (which would also need past and future arrangements of, which is something we don't have). Garden/Little Planet has been confirmed to be the present track for R2, as it's a holdover. My concern, however, is that it seems like he's going the "Relic Ruins" route with that BGM, and if there's one thing I'm not a fan of, it's elevated "fan/hoax music". I've been checking up on that channel ever sense he posted the Mania styled Tidal Tempest tracks years back. The copies would be applied to both enemies and Sonic.Īctually, I believe R2 was in the works, as I knew about this project's existence already via Daan Demmers/Ramiro Bandicoot's (now aRBee's) YouTube channel. The copy would be on a layer in front of the glass tiles and behind all the other tiles. If you're familiar with the after images of Sonic while in Super Sonic or Running Shoes, it's almost identical except upside down and only 1 copy. The final code for the glass reflections isn't hard at all. I also plan to have a cutscene when Palmtree Panic starts of him hopping off the chain and then having it in the background of act 2. I do hope to have an animated cutscene at the beginning and end eventually, and it would definitely play at the start of the game, so there would be no unfamiliarity with the concept of the chain. I don't think the chain placement is final. It's incredibly incomplete, so I've replaced almost 90% of it with my own code or code ported from Sonic Mania into the proprietary scripting language of Hatch (Hatch Script Language). The Sonic game code itself is based on OpenMania ( ), a Hatch framework. You may also be familiar with it from Sonic Galactic. He was eventually hired by Evening Star and I've been working on expanding it now. It was made to replicate the behavior of the Retro Engine. It's the third iteration of an engine we used several years ago for a now-defunct project called Sonic 3'Mixed. ![]() Click to expand.The underlying engine code is the Hatch Engine ( ) created by my friend Aurum. ![]() The sophistication in operation is that Steller Photo Repair uses the data from the working sample file to repair the damaged file.

The first such pattern was discovered by Heinz Voderberg in 1936 and used a concave 11-sided polygon (shown on the left). Lu, a physicist at Harvard, metal quasicrystals have "unusually high thermal and electrical resistivities due to the aperiodicity" of their atomic arrangements.Īnother set of interesting aperiodic tessellations is spirals. The geometries within five-fold symmetrical aperiodic tessellations have become important to the field of crystallography, which since the 1980s has given rise to the study of quasicrystals. According to ArchNet, an online architectural library, the exterior surfaces "are covered entirely with a brick pattern of interlacing pentagons." An early example is Gunbad-i Qabud, an 1197 tomb tower in Maragha, Iran. The patterns were used in works of art and architecture at least 500 years before they were discovered in the West. Medieval Islamic architecture is particularly rich in aperiodic tessellation. These tessellations do not have repeating patterns. Notice how each gecko is touching six others. The following "gecko" tessellation, inspired by similar Escher designs, is based on a hexagonal grid. By their very nature, they are more interested in the way the gate is opened than in the garden that lies behind it." In doing so, they have opened the gate leading to an extensive domain, but they have not entered this domain themselves. Irregular tessellations consist of figures that do not involve. This further inspired Escher, who began exploring deeply intricate interlocking tessellations of animals, people and plants.Īccording to Escher, "Crystallographers have … ascertained which and how many ways there are of dividing a plane in a regular manner. Only eight specific combinations of regular polygons can create semi-regular tessellations. ![]() His brother directed him to a 1924 scientific paper by George Pólya that illustrated the 17 ways a pattern can be categorized by its various symmetries. According to James Case, a book reviewer for the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), in 1937, Escher shared with his brother sketches from his fascination with 11 th- and 12 th-century Islamic artwork of the Iberian Peninsula. Figure 9 shows an example of irregular tessellation, in which all the polygons are regular and congruent. Some tessellations involve many types of tiles, but the most interesting tessellations use only one or a few different tiles to fill the plane. Irregular tessellations are those that are formed by irregular polygons, or by regular polygons but that do not meet the criterion that a node is a vertex of at least three polygons. The most famous practitioner of this is 20 th-century artist M.C. A tessellation is a covering of the plane by shapes, called tiles, so that there are no empty spaces and no overlapped tiles. A unique art form is enabled by modifying monohedral tessellations. We confess that our confidence is in You and not in our jobs, our investments, our bank accounts or ourselves.

DIRECTV STREAMs starter plan, the Entertainment package is 75/mo.

I think DirecTV via internet has more channels than DirecTV stream, but not certain of that. DirecTV Stream and YouTube TV are some of the most in-demand streaming services in the market. Also, the $114/month for DirecTV via internet is locked in for 2 years, whereas there doesn't seem to be any guarantee that DirecTV stream's $99/month price won't increase in the next 2 years (and I see where the price did just recently increase).

Please read how to replace a crossbow string. The Chinese repeating crossbow had a maximum range of 120 meters, with an effective range of 60 meters, far less than that of a non-repeating crossbow.

The bolts of one magazine are fired and reloaded by simply pushing and pulling the lever back and forth. Other repeating crossbows fired as many as 10 bolts before exhausting the magazine. Zhuge Liang improved the design of the repeating crossbow, and made a version which shot two to three bolts at once and was used in massed formations. The bow string consisted of animal sinew twisted into a cord of suitable strength. The Chinese repeating crossbow chu-ke nu is a device with a simple design. Please do not shoot from the crossbow without an arrow. The use of this historical crossbow is at your own risk. Recommended arrows 255/8 (13 g, length 28cm).The capacity of the magazine: 10 arrows.50,5 lbs (32 kg) on the string and about 6,6 lbs (3 kg) on the lever Although a longbow achieves comparable accuracy and faster shooting rate than an average crossbow, crossbows release more kinetic energy and can be used effectively after a week of training, while a comparable single-shot skill with a longbow takes years of strength training to overcome the draw strength of the longbow, as well as years of practice needed to use it with skill. ![]() They almost completely superseded hand bows in many European armies in the 12th century for a number of reasons. The use of crossbows in European warfare is again evident from the Battle of Hastings until about the year 1500. 32, No.Chinese medieval repeating crossbow Chukonu This article appears in the Winter 2020 issue (Vol. That allows designers to add a shoulder stock at the back and a scope on top. Modern crossbows, however, have a lever below the barrel. This limited the functionality of the weapon, which explains why it stayed unchanged for a long time. Special Operations Command (Osprey Publishing, 2019). The original design placed the repeating lever on top of the crossbow. To compensate for the latter, crossbowmen generally tipped the bolt heads with poison.Ĭhris McNab is a military historian based in the United Kingdom. Its effective range (about 80 yards) was poor, and penetration was limited. A chukonu could unleash 10 bolts in just 20 seconds (a standard crossbow’s top rate of fire was three or four bolts a minute), but there were substantial trade-offs. This ingeniously simple weapon figured in Asian warfare until the 19th century. ![]() The crossbowman then drove the handle forward, pushing the whole mechanism to the front to reengage the string for firing, as the next bolt took its place in the flight groove, ready to go. When drawn to the rear, the handle both cocked and, at the full extent of the draw, released the bowstring, firing the bolt that had dropped automatically into the flight groove. It featured a top-mounted magazine, in which multiple bolts were stacked, and a large operating handle. ![]() ![]() Yet they were slow and cumbersome to load, leaving those who wielded them vulnerable to attack.ĭeveloped in the second century BCE, the chukonu was intended to overcome this deficit. Conventional crossbows, invented in China in the seventh century BCE, required far less training to master than standard bows and delivered immense armor-piercing power. The Chinese chukonu-a repeating crossbow-was a magazine-fed semiautomatic weapon, but one predating its firearm equivalents by millennia.
