![]() ![]() This doesn’t mean that we never patch the game between the DLC releases. For the Ultimate Edition, the DLCs already have a rough schedule so we’ll have good opportunities to patch the game at the same time. So instead of spending a big part of the week working on the build deliveries and QA rounds, we can use that time to work on the fixes themselves. We’re a small team of 30 developers and we have to plan the work in a way that creates the fastest results. Weekly patches are too heavy for us to keep up with and the issues we are working on need more time than just a few hours or days to fix. “There have also been many questions about the patch cadence and why we moved away from weekly patches. Only time will tell if this is enough to turn things around. The team is divided to work on different tasks so that we’re seeing progress on all fronts and while it might not feel that it’s fast enough I can assure you we are all doing the best we can. “We’re working very hard to catch up on the missing modding support, missing platforms, the content for the Ultimate Edition, and improving the performance and fixing bugs this year. “We’d much rather be in a different position than we are in at the moment, but we cannot change the past,” Hallikainen said. However, a great many of these players were left frustrated by the game’s foreshadowed poor performance, along with a number of bugs, which Colossal Order has worked to fix in the weeks since.Įarlier this month, Hallikainen questioned the reaction from some within the Cities Skylines community after the developer patched out an in-game radio advert it had deemed offensive.Now, in a new Steam post, CEO Mariina Hallikainen asked herself the question: "How do you plan to get out of this mess? / What is in the works to fix Cities: Skylines 2? / What will you do to set things right for the disaster launch of CS2?" In her response, she admitted the lack of modding support is Colossal Order’s “biggest regret”, but addressed all the main concerns. In a subsequent joint statement Colossal Order and Paradox admitted they had “not achieved the benchmark” targeted for launch performance on PC, but stuck to the planned release date anyway.ĭespite the warning, Cities: Skylines 2 surpassed 100,000 concurrent players on Steam on launch day as it soared to the top of the storefront’s best-sellers chart. The minimum and recommended PC specs were also raised significantly to account for the game’s “next-generation” features and to allow for “a better player experience”. In the month preceding launch, Colossal Order and publisher Paradox announced the Xbox Series X and S and PlayStation 5 versions of the game were delayed to spring 2024 in order to allow the developers more time to match “quality and performance across all platforms." The original Cities Skylines enjoyed strong support from the modding community.Ĭities Skylines 2 has endured a tumultuous release. Without an asset import feature, mod makers are unable to import their own assets into the game. The city builder, which launched on Steam to a ‘mixed’ user review rating last month, does not currently have official mod support or the expected in-game editor. Last week, Colossal Order confirmed a significant delay to official mod support, and announced the slowdown of patch releases. This also stands for the Content Creator Packs and Radio stations.” ![]() I apologize for the delay, but we must not rush new content out before the base is ready for it. “The first Asset Pack, Beach Properties, has been worked on by our artists’ and our outsourcing partner, but we’ll only implement them after the asset fix and performance work are completed to our satisfaction. “We are committed to bringing the marketed DLC content to you, but it will not be landing in the originally promoted schedule,” Hallikainen continued. The console version of Cities Skylines 2 is due out at some point during the first half of 2024. In a blog post, Colossal Order CEO Mariina Hallikainen apologised for the delays, insisting “once the PC version is where we want it to be, we will be focusing on the console release and DLC content”. ![]()

![]() ![]() Supervision does not require that the individual administering the test be in the same room as the test taker throughout the session, although it is desirable that the test taker be within the supervisor’s line of sight. Adequate supervision ensures that the test taker completes the inventory on his or her own, that any unusual events that may occur during testing are recorded and can be considered in the interpretation of the test results, and that conditions conducive to obtaining optimally valid information are maintained. Although the MMPI‑2‑RF is a self-administered test, completion of the inventory should be supervised by a qualified user or a technician working under the supervision of a qualified user. The Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (Standard 5.6) require that test users make reasonable efforts to protect the integrity of test scores by eliminating opportunities for test takers to obtain scores fraudulently. For example, the MMPI-2-RF administration guidelines indicate: The second recommendation, that the conditions of administration indicated in the test manual are preserved, is the key challenge associated with remote MMPI administration.Īdministration guidelines articulated in the various MMPI instrument manuals identify the need for supervised test administration. There is ample evidence that the reliability and validity of MMPI test scores are preserved when the test is administered by computer or tablet (e.g., Finger & Ones, 1999 Forbey & Ben-Porath, 2007 Menton et al., 2019 Roper, Ben-Porath, & Butcher, 1995). ( Joint Task Force for the Development of Telepsychology Guidelines for Psychologists, 2013, p. When a psychological test or other assessment procedure is conducted via telepsychology, psychologists are encouraged to ensure that the integrity of the psychometric properties of the test or assessment procedure (e.g., reliability and validity) and the conditions of administration indicated in the test manual are preserved when adapted for use with such technologies. The APA Guidelines for the Practice of Telepsychology encourage psychologists to consider the unique issues that may arise with instruments and assessment approaches designed for in-person implementation when providing telepsychology services. Users are encouraged to consult the American Psychological Association’s Guidelines for the Practice of Telepsychology (2013) for general guidance on telepsychological practice and specific assessment guidelines and Pearson’s Telepractice: General Information for information on telepractice using Pearson’s Q-global platform. This guidance is intended for practitioners considering remote MMPI administration. ![]() It is an emerging practice trend discussed in the literature as a subset of services labeled telepsychology, telepractice, and telemedicine (among other terms).

I’ve not gotten to it yet but I’m very excited to see what it can do and how the compabillity is with other plugins (Yanfly library, Terrax lightning I’m not mistaken QMap and QMovement is made by ? They do look like nice plugins for sure, but the problem I see with them is that it seems like Quxios haven’t logged in since April 14 2018. I’ll try your plugin out tomorrow when I’m off from work btw. Some easy to understand instructions or guidelines for said parameter(s) would also be very helpful for us non-programmers. It would be very interesting and useful to have an optimization parameter since performance is the biggest drawback that I see can happen with parallax mapping. I also hope that this message was formulated okay enoughĮDIT: Already tested this parallax mapping optimization and it will give significant speed-up on large/huge maps (since we don't event try to draw any if you’re preloading a lot of the heavier map images (I don’t know of a preloadeing plugin that’s up to date though), even a large parallax map wouldn’t necessarily be so heavy, correct? For example on my computer I didn't notice ANY difference (used built-in FPS meter (F2) and it was 60 fps all the time with all layers stuffed full).īut if you want I could try to do Parallax mapping optimization plugin parameter, which will disable normal tiling totally, this would make it even faster than "foreground.js". But this doesn't mean my plugin is 5 times slower and if you use ALL of it's layers it might be ~1.1 to 3 times heavier than foreground.js (depending on target machine). I took a look at this "foreground.js" -plugin and it seems it is more efficient (ATM) because it also uses TilingSprite -class (the normal way to do parallax mapping in RMMV), but only 1 times (my plugin has total of 5 different layers > 2 of them for run-time sprites). Performance difference is quite dependent of target machine. Generally parallax mapping will consume more memory and bandwidth on 1st load, but it has less need of computing. (Writing this late at night but I hope I formulated myself okay enough)Ĭlick to expand.Hi and yes message was formulated okay enough! So I might as well ask some follow-up questions that I've been pondering. On that note, since you made this plugin you obviously have some insight into how MV draws graphics and what load this might put on the CPU/GPU/RAM. Three layers is more than enough for me who usually only use two. I'm a fan of your previous plugins so I'll be sure to give this new one a spin as well. (Writing this late at night but I hope I formulated myself okay you, for your quick response. But the larger maps can be up to ~90x90 (4320x4320 pixels per image layer). My smallest maps are around ~40x40 (1920x1920 pixels per image layer), which is probably fine. Water or animated tiles is done by placing one or several events with large(!) graphics and give them a custom move route for the animation sequence. I'm also using previously mentioned Region Restrictions plugin by Yanfly, but I think I'd have to use that with your plugin as well so I don't think it's relevant to the performance.Īnd like I said, I usually only use two layers (background, foreground) and no tiles whatsoever. ![]() Would you say your plugins is more efficient compared to my current solution (normal parallax image with an "!" before the filename for the background and Kadokawa's "Foregroun.js" plugin for an overlay layer)? If there is no big difference in performance your plugin does provide more layers and possibilities which is a good thing. Is this correct, incorrect or does it maybe depend on the size of the image and plugin used?Īlso, regarding performance. While I'm not much of a programmer myself and therefore don't understand exactly what they're talking about, it almost sounds like parallax mapping might put less strain on your computer in this old thread: Up until now however, I've always been told the opposite which makes me curious. I like parallax mapping, as my alias might suggest, but I also like to make large maps, and till this day I'm still unsure of how viable parallax mapping is compared to MV's built in tile-mapping (the mapping you do in the editor) when it comes to performance. ![]() ![]() ![]() /r/FindASubreddit - Looking for a subreddit on a particular topic but don't know where to start?./r/FindAReddit - Looking for a subreddit on a particular topic but don't know where to start?./r/ideasfortheadmins - suggestions to improve Reddit. ![]() /r/modclub A place for mods of communities with 100 or more users to hang out./r/modsupport - a point of contact for moderators to discuss issues with reddit admins, mostly about mod tools./r/modhelp - Help for questions about moderation./r/AskModerators - for general questions aimed at moderators of reddit./r/needamod - Need help moderating a reddit?
