But I suppose part of the price does include the decorations I mentioned as well as the brand label. The in-house Omega Calibre 8800 movement is legendary in the industry for its decorations, precision, and accuracy and you can’t go wrong with that.Īt first, I did feel some guilt paying $1,350 for a watch with an ETA 2824-2, since you can get watches in the $400-500 range with the same movement. Lastly, the aforementioned Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean can be had for over $4,000 if that’s within budget. It has pretty much the same specs as the Tag Heuer, except the back is transparent so you can see the movement. For another cheaper ETA-powered automatic diver, one can consider the Alpina Black Dial Automatic Men’s Blue Bezel Watch for under $700. Seiko movements have a great price-to-value ratio and they look great too. In the lowest end of the spectrum, one could get an reliable automatic diver in the Seiko Black Automatic Diver Men’s Watch for just under $200. Why get a Tag Heuer Aquaracer for your daily diver watch though? It’s true that there are many other options depending on your price range. It moves at 28,800 vibrations per hour, which is also the most common in the industry. The ETA 2824-2 is pretty standard with 25 jewels and a 42 hour power reserve. That said, it’s less complex than other in-house movements and pretty much makes the entire difference in price (other than the brand name, of course) when comparing the Aquaracer to something like the Omega Seamaster. Despite being probably the most mass produced Swiss movement out there, it’s clearly a competent one, given that so many companies choose to use it. Mechanically, the Calibre 5 movement is a modified ETA 2824-2. There isn’t much else in terms of decoration, but I suppose that’s one of the main differences between a Tag Heuer and a more expensive luxury watch. In the picture above, however, you can see that the half circle rotor is decorated with Côtes de Genève in the center with the Tag Heuer brand engraving. Since the back casing is solid, I can’t see the Calibre 5 movement without opening up the watch or looking online. The 2nd position also stops the watch, allowing for precise time setting. The neutral position allows manual winding of the movement, while the 1st and 2nd positions on the crown change the date and minute hand, respectively. The crown is adorned with the Tag Heuer “shield” logo and is screw down. It’s obviously no chronograph, but I’ve used it many times in the kitchen and other places. Just point the triangle at the minute hand and read the bezel as the time passes. Solid back casingĪround the face, there is a uni-directional (CCW) rotating bezel that can be used for imprecise time estimations. However, it has a beautifully embossed scuba logo to make up for it. The date display is standard at the 3 o’clock position and does not have a magnifier/cyclops, which I prefer since it means the face is completely flat. Unfortunately, the back casing is solid, meaning that we can’t see the Calibre 5 movement inside. The hands and hour markers are polished with a luminous coating that reads clearly but subtly in the dark (it’s not an obnoxious glow-in-the-dark watch). The Aquaracer’s dial is simple and clear. Of course, there are many other watches that fit these requirements, but I chose this one due to Tag Heuer’s recognizable brand and quality ETA movement. It’s also made of stainless steel with a closed back and has a high water resistance rating of 300m. The Aquaracer has a sapphire crystal display, which is the most scratch and shatter resistant watch glass. Second, I wanted something that was more of a “beater watch” since I was probably going to wear it pretty often. First, I wanted something more casual, as the Tissot I owned at the time had a simple black dial with a dark brown leather strap, and as I learned during my initial research into watches, watches with bracelets are seen as more casual nowadays. I chose this watch as my first luxury watch for two main reasons. After coupons and discounts, the price was $1,325, which I still believe is a good deal on this watch. At the time in 2014, I bought it new off a grey market retailer called TheWatchery, which as far as I can tell, no longer exists. For me personally, this watch was a Christmas gift to myself after getting my first sizable bonus in my job after college. Technically, the Tissot Le Locle was my first watch before I gifted it to a close friend, but this Tag was the first watch I owned that really required a lot of research and a large investment. That said, watch collecting is definitely not for everyone and it usually takes years (if not decades) to build up a collection of several quality timepieces. The Tag Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 Automatic was my first real entry into the world of luxury automatic watches.

This mod enhances the looks and sound of Doom3 and provides several new features for custom maps.Ī big THANK YOU to “Clone JC Denton” for releasing his mod under GPL!

Just extract that zip to your Doom3/dhewm3 installation.List of supported Mods Classic Doom 3Ĭlassic Doom 3 is a remake of the first episode of the original Doom in Doom3.Ī big THANK YOU to “SnoopJeDi” (and the rest of the Classic Doom 3 Team) for releasing this mod under GPL! General information about idTech4 (Doom3, Quake4, Prey, ET:QW, …) modding can be found at the idTech4 ModWiki. The dhewm3 SDK project page has more information. The essential requirement for porting Mods to dhewm3 is that the original Mod authors must release the source code under the GPLv3 license (that id Software chose when open sourcing Doom3). This means that old Mods are only supported if they either have been ported to dhewm3 or don’t require their own Game DLL (but are using the one from the main game). On page 2, a few examples of the best use of POM in the game.Unfortunately dhewm3 can’t support all old Doom3 modifications, as it’s incompatible with old Game DLLs. The POM effect is partucularly noticeable on the left hand side wall. Your folder structure should end up looking like thisĪnd that should get wulfens textures running alongside sikkmod. Copy and paste interaction.vpt and test.vpt into the glprogs folder in doom3\sikkmod (create the glprogs folder if it isnt there). Go into the ‘parralax occlusion mapping’ folder, and find a folder called POM. Now if you want POM to work, you have to have a folder in your sikkmod folder called ‘glprogs’. Just extract the folders ‘models’, ‘textures’, and ‘parralax occlusion mapping’ into your sikkmod folder. You can launch Doom 3 and go into the mods section and launch sikkmod fromt here. So you should have a folder structure like C:\program files\Doom 3\sikkmod. Just extract the sikkmod folder to your Doom 3 Directory. This will make it easier to get Wulfens textures workign in conjunction with Sikkmod. Sadly it seems like monoxead has stopped developing this mod as his site hasnt been updated since 2010, and all the download links there are long dead. All you need to do is unzip it to your Doom 3 folder!! Simple!Īnother texture mod we’ll be using is Monoxead’s high res textures, which you can download here. This installs Sikkmod 1.2 and Wulfens textures, AND enabled POM by default. The mods used here are fairly straightforward to install, were using Wulfen’s textures, and Sikkmod.Īs of July 2013, both mods can be downloaded in a single file from here There’s no artsy screenshots here (not yet, im working on that), this is a mod tutorial to get Doom 3 looking like a whole new game for 2012 It’s actually held up really well however, in an FPS world where hand holding, linearity, and watching pompusly grandiose cutscenes are the norm, Doom 3’s straight up no frills shooting is almost a breath of fresh air. I love Doom 3, it’s a game that i think suffered a pretty harsh fan backlash more or less just down to the fact that Half Life 2 was released a few weeks later. Here is the code: public T ApiCachi(Func act, int minutes = 10) where T : class I could not find any reference where ReadThrough() is async. The issue I am facing is that page controller can call API endpoints async while blocks call sync. Now I have created a service class which I inject in Controllers. Return objectCaching.ReadThrough(objectCaching.GenerateCacheKey(authPersister.GetCacheKey()),ĬacheTimeoutType.Absolute), ReadStrategy.Wait) Tak på forhånd protected T APICaching(Func act, ISynchronizedObjectInstanceCache objectCaching, IAuthPersister authPersister) where T : class If the user sign out should the caching be invalidated or its ok to let it be as 10 minutes will expire the caching. Should this key be dependent on Masterkey, so If i want to remove cached object i can do so by master key ? I am gernerating cache key for each cache object by setting masterkey(unique) with object name. The other question is som API endpoints can be cached for 10 or more minutes, while others for 2-3 minutes (data can be changed quickly), should I created method overload with different CacheEvicationPolicy. Where should the method be residing, as right now I am sending all the arguemnts from Controller as they are being inject there through DI. Right now i have implemented methods in base controllers of both page & block. We have three different types of classes which are calling API endpoints, blockcontrollers,pagecontrollers,VisitorGroups Criteria for pages/blocks. Step 5.

Looking to do some card drafting yourself? We’ve put together a pack of our top card drafting game picks so you can find something that suits your playstyle. No matter the theme or the exact nature of the choice, players will have to pick carefully to improve their own game position while also considering the power of ‘hate drafting’ - picking a card mostly to spite another player who really needs it. The cards in card drafting games can represent everything from pieces of sushi and friendly dogs to trade outposts, with choices made secretly or in full display. You’ll also need to formulate ways to make the most of the mediocre cards no-one else wants. Drafting rewards encyclopedic knowledge of the game’s cards, which can help a player know what to pick first. There are fast games that are entirely determined by drafting and playing cards, along with deeply complex board games where drafting cards is just one of many mechanics players need to keep track of. The card drafting mechanic has since expanded beyond collectible card games to board games, where you can really see its versatility. Drafting pushes the strategic thinking of players, forcing you to make snap decisions while considering synergies with the cards you’ve already chosen and even what the absence of certain types of cards tells you about your competitors’ tactics. Card drafting was popularised by Magic: The Gathering in the competitive Draft format where players passed around packs of cards, choosing the ones they thought best for a deck they would construct and play on the spot. |
