How to play Baldurs Gate on your Android phone or Tablet


Baldur's Gate running on my Android Galaxy Note.
 This is a tutorial to install Baldur's Gate on your Android smartphone or tablet.


Step 1 - Install Baldur's Gate on your PC

Install Baldur's Gate from your CD's on your PC. Install your expansion packs & all the latest patches as if you are playing it from your PC. Installing a "No-CD" patch isn't required. 


Install GemRB from the Google Play store on your Android phone. You will need a good Android file explorer. I have found the ES File Explorer to be the best.  Run GemRB. GemRB will create a default /app-data/net.sourceforge.gemrb/ folder on your sdcard and copy some files to it. After copying files GemRB will close.

Killzone 2 - Weapon Statistics


 All credit for this article & stats go to Magemasher13


Some notes on stats:

All players online have 100 health. Keep this in mind when looking at guns damage stat. Damage stat is in terms of "per bullet."

Rate of fire has 2 meanings depending on the gun. For automatics its simple Rounds Per Second (RPS), for semi-automatics the number refers to the amount of time it takes the gun to chamber another bullet.

Standing Accuracy Modifier is how much the bullet will stray when you fire it while standing. When crouched and unmoving, the first shot is 100% accurate. When you stand up an accuracy modifier is applied that refers to degrees off that the shot will be. For example, a standing accuracy modifier of 0.3 means that when you shoot while standing, the bullets trajectory will change 0.3 degrees per meter it travels. A very handy thing to know.

Zoom look refers to how much the aiming slows down when you are aiming down the sights. Zoom movement tells by how much your movement speed is reduced by when aiming down the sights.

Range is how far a gun is effective. Past its maximum range the bullets move and fall dramatically and their damage is reduced, so really just don't bother trying to use a gun past its effective range. Range is measured in meters in this game, and a good way to help guess how far away someone is is by the radar. On the radar there are 3 lines. radiating from the center. The first line from your character marks 12 meters, the second 24, and the outer rim is 30 meters.......or at least thats the way it was at launch, anyway. In the 1.24 patch they increased the area shown in your radar by an unspecified amount. I'm going to assume they upped it to 45 meters for the sake of simplicity.

Oh, and a bullet to the head in Warzone will always kill, no matter what gun fired it. In campaign headshots have a 5x damage multiplier.

As for melee, the first strike (Forehand) always does 33 damage. The second strike (backhand) does 70 damage. Keep that in mind.

So, on to the guns!

How to Improve the font quality on your LCD screen ?

This is only for Windows (XP and after) PC's.

How do you improve the quality of the font's on your LCD screen ?  This works for both the LCD screen of your monitor and your laptop.

This technology for smoothing the font's on your LCD monitor is called ClearType and is present on Windows PC's (XP, Vista & Windows 7).

From Wikipedia :

ClearType is a trademark for Microsoft's implementation of subpixel rendering technology. ClearType attempts to improve the appearance of text on certain types of computer display screens by sacrificing color fidelity for additional intensity variation. This trade-off is asserted to work well on LCD flat panel monitors.
There is a small utility to start and tune ClearType on your PC by Microsoft.  You can download it from the Microsoft webpage here.

All instructions to install and use this ClearType tuner are on the webpage from where you downloaded Microsoft's powertoy for ClearType.  Use the Wizard, its the easiest and best way to tune ClearType on your PC's LCD screen.

How to find your Asus EeePC's Serial number ?

You love your little Asus EeePC, but now after using it lots, something's wrong and you require to send it to the service center.  You need to login on their website with the service request.  It is asking you for your EeePC's serial number.  Now what ?

Overturn your EeePC.  There will be a sticker with with the Serial Number (SN:).  That is your serial number.  But if like mine, with time, the Serial Number on my EeePC has disappeared, then what ?!


Instead of my Serial Number, the sticker has become blank !  Shame on you Asus for using disappearing ink for the serial number.

If you still have your EeePC package box, then the Serial Number (SN:) is printed on the box.  If you don't have the EeePC packing box then you can check the Invoice of your EeePC.  The EeePC serial number will be mentioned in your Invoice.

If you don't have the Invoice or the package box and your EeePC's serial number sticker is blank...then  tough luck...there is nothing you can do........

Joking ! :-)

There is one last way you can find out your Computers manufacturing serial number.

This will only work if you have your original battery.  Remove your battery.  Under the battery you will find a sticker (hopefully as it is hidden inside, the number would not have disappeared with wear and tear).  Mine was in mint condition.  It is the one starting with SN:

Finally your EeePC serial number, hidden away behind your laptop battery !

How to Video Conference with your Webcam for FREE !



I generally don't publicize any good Websites I find, but this time I have found a gem.  Video conference with your webcam for free !
  1. No software to install, works with your favorite browser.
  2. Works with your laptop webcam and microphone.
  3. Can Video conference with upto 12 friends / colleagues at the same time.  
  4. Create your own Video conference room within seconds. 
  5. Works well on any Netbook.
  6. And its FREE.
All this at Tiny Chat - Free Chat rooms & audio video conferences
Go to Tiny Chat, start a Chat room with any name you want.  Send the link to your friends / colleagues.  Let them login to that link.  Give permission for their Flash application to use your webcam & microphone and you are done.  You can individually choose which webcam you want to see, change the volume control for each webcam.  The video & audio quality are decent if not great but you need at least 512kbps Internet speed to avoid stuttering.

A Warning : Join their Open Rooms at your own risk.  There is plenty of profanity and nudity in some public chat rooms of theirs (hope that didn't spur you on to go and check it out).  :-)

Greatest Strategy Games for the Sony PSP

I love Strategy games and I love my Sony PSP (Play Station Portable).  I own it ever since Sony first introduced the PSP.  So, I usually buy all Strategy games that come out for the PSP.  Some are hopeless, some are fair and some are good.  But here I want to list the 4 best Strategy games for the Sony PSP that I have played.  I hope this will help Strategy game fans who own a PSP.

So, here they are in reverse order :

@ Number 4 - Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords


A unique game which blends Bejeweled and a RPG (Role Playing Game) into one.  A brilliant idea for a game and suited wonderfully for the Sony PSP's screen.

Pros :

Very addictive and real fun to play.

Cons :

No Online play.
