Unfucking a Bethesda game with day-one mods is a time-honored tradition. Toddition.

Legally, it’s probably not. The OEM desktop license probably doesn’t cover virtualization.

How should we know? Ask them, not us.

That is, in fact, how game engines work, if the game logic and renderer are decoupled. Usually they’re not too tightly coupled in the first place, but Unreal is specifically designed to be used in more than just games.

French doesn’t deserve such nice treatment. They’re not even using those letters!

Not really. The user has full control over the PC, and they could completely image and restore the whole drive. There’s no way you could detect that without an outside reference point.

The most effective motivation is intrinsic. It’s very hard to make someone want to do something. It’d take Apple-level marketing, or Microsoft-level outright paying people to use their products.

Can you play online with your friends?

Probably not the only one, but there’s not very many of you, because there are plenty of engines. Unreal, Unity (rip), and Godot are the big general-purpose ones, for good reason: they’re modern, powerful, and most importantly easy to work with. But there’s also Source, CryEngine, Frostbite, id Tech, and many more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_game_engines

I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I’m willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.

Congrats, you’re more qualified than most of the people I’ve worked with.

Why are you using some random blog post? The page you linked to shows how to use it without Cloudflare…

He doesn’t think at all.

It sounds like you just need better sources for downloads. Radarr has quality settings but they’re not especially accurate. I’ve mostly left those settings alone and added some good torrent and usenet sources.

You can, turn off your devices and go outside.

Not specifically. It sounds like they’re not really interested in maintaining a Windows version, so for that they charge. Generally I think people should be compensated for their labor, even though that might be an unpopular opinion in this community.

we also have to pay for a Apple developer account for signed macOS releases

Sounds like you should blame Apple, not the dev.

What exactly is the connection?

Yup. You make yourself look like a bot, you’re gonna get treated like a bot.
