![]() ![]() Ceramic Stucco Texture gel can be applied thickly or thinly. This is one of my favorite acrylic texture mediums because it's so versatile and it's a real pleasure to paint over it when it's dry.Ĭeramic Stucco Texture Gel - This is also another one of my favorites to paint over because I love the absorbent texture it creates.

There are endless ways to apply texture mediums. ![]() You can mix them together or after the acrylic medium has dried on your canvas, you can also add more acrylic texture mediums on top.

Whether you want to add color (by mixing the medium with acrylic paint) before applying it to canvas or after it has dried is up to you, and what you want to achieve. Since acrylic mediums are translucent, they will easily take on any color they are mixed with, so a little bit of acrylic paint will go a long way when mixed with a texture medium.

![]() ![]() ![]() Honorable mentions: Captain Commando, Tenchi wo Kurau II, Battle Circuit. Their most accomplished title in the audiovisual department, no juggles but rewarding OTG combo system, lots of abilities to get from mech parts, fast pacing, unforgiving difficulty more focused on pattern dodging than other games in the genre. The best physics and combo system in the genre IMO, great character variety and good challenge.Īrmored Warriors: Capcom's toughest game. Superb graphics, relentless pacing with high damage, speed and lots of enemies on screen. All the characters are powerful, unique and viable, it's fun to play with friends, lots of abusable fun stuff to do. ![]() A middle ground between the complex combo systems of newer games and the more methodic pacing of games like Final Fight.ĭungeons and Dragons: very complex in general, with all the character variety, items, combo system, branching paths, secrets, etc. The Punisher: Great weapon system, lots of abilities and mobility. it's a very rich type of game when done right. Each new group of enemies is a different situation that requires a different approach based on distance, positioning, attack recovery, crowd control / management, etc. By the way, I don't know why so many people say the genre is repetitive. Older ones like Street's of Rage due to low amount of enemies on screen (the main point of the genre being dealing with groups of enemies), DC and GH for being stretched out, sloppily designed, easy and dumbed down with jRPG elements, among other issues. Console games are generally signficantly inferior (I haven't tried DDA enough, otherwise I would not have to add the "generally" bit, ha). ![]() ![]() ![]() Yo - i havn't seen the difference too much. ![]() Good try, nice installer icon, and that?s where the complements end. It did nothing It definately did not normalize. I did nothing for volume normaliztion - Sorry guy's but this plug-in is a virtual "sugar pill". I've tested songs that are significantly softer than others, and this plugin only seems to keep their recorded volume at a constant level, but does not alter the levels of all songs to meet a certain level - something you'd expect a "normalizer" to do. So if you're expecting all songs to come out of your speakers at a certain volume, that's not going to happen. It's really annoying when you're expecting the song to get a little louder and all of a sudden it gets quieter instead.Īlso, like I said before, it only seems to limit volume within a single song. Have a volume threshold, a min and a max so that when songs naturally get louder or quieter the thing doesn't interfere. However, its normalization is crude and it doesn't normalize across a playlist, it only normalizes within a single song, which is pointless if you really want songs to be normalized. Got potential, but not ready yet - This plugin has potential to be a really great feature. Not a true "Normaliser" technically speaking. However, rather than finding the peaks in a track and adjusting the volume to them, it adjusts the volume of the tracks as it plays (in real-time), meaning that it changes the playback of the track as there are no quieter or louder parts.the whole track plays at the same volume instead.which isn't what I was looking for. There is a noticeable volume change between tracks that I have tried. Wrong Approach - It kind of works despite what other people have said. ![]() It can not only raise the volume, it even can lower it. Very Good - The best normalizer I've ever seen. The only feature lacking is the option to set a min and max volume, instead of simply an average to maintain. The plugin works very well, consumes little resources, doesn't noticeably reduce sound quality, and the obvious or inappropriate changes to volume inherent to such a system can be minimized with the right blend of option tweaking. Allows you to set your target average volume, the speed at which the plugin will adjust the volume, and the size of data chunk it will analyze at a time (in other words, you choose how large or small of a selection of the song will be looked at before it decides to raise/lower the volume). Very nice - A nice little plugin that examines your individual mp3s as you play them, and keeps them from wandering too far from your specified volume. just try to complete this unfinished project - Septemby m. Maby Cameron VanNattaįinish it! - it's working allright. It's just three sliders which you tweak, and there are no units on these sliders.ĭoes what it says - I have 29 hours of tv shows on my computer, and they're all at stupid volume levels. No graphical feedback - This plug-in may work, but it doesn't tell you anything about what it is doing. Just set the volume you want songs to play at. This is definitely useful for keeping your different mp3 files sounding consistent with each other. Staff review Good for keeping consistent volume level A nice plugin if you are having a lot of songs at different volumes!

It is interesting to examine closely how Apple could have handled the Project Priority Matrix of its flagship new Smartphone the iPhone X. When the project’s team decides that they can “miss” or “skip” the pre-fixed deadline, then they have accepted.Ī Project Priority Matrix therefore helps prioritize complex or unclear issues when there are multiple criteria for determining importance it facilitates reaching agreement on priorities and key issues between many people working on the project and reaching common agreement on what is important? The example of project priority matrix with iPhone X Finally, if a criterion is to be accepted, then the project stakeholders have agreed that it is OK not to meet the original Project parameters. If the Hospital Management and the people working on this project reach a result where the Hospital can increase infection control by a further 12%, then that is the desired outcome. When it is enhanced, the criterion can be optimized or improved, like for example when a Hospital sets as its project’s target to increase infection control by a further 10%. For example, the budget cannot exceed $10,000. When a criterion is constrained, then it is considered as the affixed parameter for the project. One technique that can help manage different project expectations and the resulting trade-offs is the Project Priority Matrix in which for each one of the three project aspects (Cost – Time – Scope) the Project Manager needs to establish which one is accepted, which could be enhanced and which needs to be constrained. If a Project Manager wishes to reduce the project’s time because he aims at having shorter time-to-market but this would surely have an impact on cost.įig 1: Project Management Trade-offs. Usually, higher performance can lead to higher associated cost. Imagine, the impact that a decision of accomplishing the project at cost (on the budget) on the expense of realizing quality deliverables. The interrelationships between these three project elements are often different for the various project’s stakeholders and can even create tensions and conflicts. ![]() The ultimate success of any project is usually determined by meeting the expectations of the customer (whether external or internal) and/or upper management in terms of cost (budget), time (schedule), and performance (scope). ![]() It also identifies their relative importance by providing a means for ranking projects (or project requests) based on criteria that are determined to be important. The Project Priority Matrix is a structured approach to working on what matters most for the project’s’ stakeholders.Ī prioritization matrix is a simple tool that provides a way to sort a diverse set of items into an order of importance.

Kasabian have had their fair share of big hits make FIFA playlists over the years with L.S.F in 04, Fast Fuse in 09, Stevie in 15 and Comeback Kid in 17. You know the instrumental of the songs that plays as you go into a match on FIFA? Yeah, this song. It’s a shame that Smallpools couldn’t further their success from this, their debut single, as they faded away soon after with the odd single being released since but to no semi-mainstream notoriety. The weirdly pessimistic yet optimistic lyrics with an undeniably catchy synth backing track make this an iconic modern FIFA song. Passionately sung lyrics from exceptional front man Yannis Philippakis along with the head banging finale gives this song its position in this list.Īsk as many people that have played this era of FIFA as you know to list their favourite FIFA songs and I guarantee you’ll see this one crop up more than a few times. Instead of those I’ve opted for Mountain at My Gates from FIFA 16 as it encompasses the album it originates from, What Went Down, which in my eyes turned Foals from “that band off FIFA” to possibly my favourite band around. Foals, in a similar vein to Two Door Cinema Club, have increased their stock in the indie/alternative scene tenfold since their first FIFA soundtrack inclusion Olympic Airways in FIFA 09,as well as the Trophy Wife Remix Of arguably the bands most famous song My Number in FIFA 14. I was very close to putting the new Foals release The Runner on this list due to it being involved in the new FIFA 20 soundtrack and it being my current favourite song of 2019, but I was afraid of the backlash so I went for a safer option. ![]() If it was more FIFA-y (newly coined adjective) we’d have our winner here.ħ- Foals – Mountain At My Gates – FIFA 16 It makes the list for being a simply fantastic song that’s aged like a fine wine since being released nearly 40 years ago with superb lyrics sung to perfection by the legendary Paul Weller. However, unlike a lot of other songs on this list, when you mention the 1982 classic Town Called Malice a lot of people’s thoughts don’t go to FIFA. Now, if this was the list of the best songs to ever be on FIFA, I assure you this would be much higher ranked (if not top). A clearly under appreciated classic, it gets my seal of approval here, especially for the crescendo of an intro.Ĩ- The Jam – Town Called Malice – FIFA 2004 And whilst I’m sure it’d be a struggle to name another Ram Di Dam song other than this without looking it up, it doesn’t make Flashbacks any less catchy or any less of an easy listen. The quick paced instrumentals along with the unmistakable opening and chorus proved to help Two Door obtain their rightful place as one of the biggest indie bands in the country from then on.Īnother one from FIFA 11 to make the cut is one that struggled to maintain as popular status as the aforementioned I Can Talk is the now aptly named Flashbacks. However, it’s the punchy single from debut album Tourist History that I’ve chosen to kick off my top 10. Need I say more? Well, yes, Two Door Cinema Club have become a staple of FIFA soundtracks over the past decade, with other hits like Sleep Alone from FIFA 13 and Are We Ready? (Wreck) from FIFA 17.
