Here’s a photo I’ve taken on the 20th October 2018 when I was at an uncredited cookery class in college. I made a Chilli Con Carne using fresh ingredients as well as 4 chilli flakes and a pinch of chilli powder. Photo taken using my iPhone 10 Pro.

Black & White Review (Game Reviews) (Reviews)

 Review by Warren Woodhouse

Rating: 10/10

This game is interesting, intriguing and fun. Very engaging life simulation where you, effectively, play as God. The gameplay and mechanics are really fun and super easy to learn. Though, some of the missions are repetitive, they are very useful and informative. It taught me a lot of life lessons in my mid teens and it’s a rare thing to see in games generally. I highly recommend.

Did you know you can use custom map icons when creating custom maps on Google? (Local Guides Connect)

Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum but certainly not new to Google Maps. My name is Warren, I have Autism. I enjoy taking photos, walking my dog Sybil and playing video games.

Today I’m going to explain how you can use your own icons on custom Google Maps. First off, start by creating map icons. You can use Adobe Express for this, as it’s free! The map icons need to be a minimum of at least 150px but a maximum I would recommend is 1200px by 1200 px. Background can be transparent for icons, save as PNG. Make sure you have a Google account and are signed into Google Maps. The next step involves uploading them into a custom map, so open up https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/ , this is where Google My Maps is. Here you can create custom maps like routes, even maps featuring locations from video games and tv series like I do sometimes. Have a great time making maps and keep exploring the great world that we all live in.

Your Friendly Traveller,

Warren

How to Solve the issue with Game Crashes in Fallout 3 & Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition on the PS3 - Issues - Fallout 3 Guide

 Solution by Warren Woodhouse

Sometimes, especially after 200 hours playing Fallout 3 or Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition, you’ll eventually run into a game save crash on the PS3. I did, however, find a solution to the issue, which I have outlined below:

1. Make a copy of your most recent hard save or autosave game save file to a USB disk drive
2. Delete the game and all the Fallout 3 or Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition game saves from the PS3
3. Enter Safe Mode on the PS3 and select Restore Database
4. Enter Safe Mode again and select Reset Network Settings
5. Enter Safe Mode again and select Delete Cache
6. Restart PS3
7. Reinstall Fallout 3 or Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition
8. Create a new save game file, complete the Prologue and Enter the Wasteland. Wait until you see a confirmation of a trophy/achievement pop up, if it’s already been unlocked, the pop up won’t occur. If you see a pop up saying that achievements won’t pop up, delete the save file and start from the beginning. Do not delete this save file until the issue happens again with the game crashing
9. Close the game and copy your original save file to the console
10. Restart the console
11. Play the game as normal

There you go. Real easy. This method also works with Skyrim on the PS3, Fallout: New Vegas on the PS3 and Fallout 4 on the PS4 and PS5.

Minecraft: PlayStation 5 Edition in-game screenshot gallery is missing my entire screenshot gallery! (MCPE-225064) - Minecraft: Bedrock Edition - Mojira Bug Tracker (Bookmarks)

Operating System Version

PlayStation 5 v25.05-11.60.00.05-00.00.00.0.1

Description

Platform: PlayStation 5 Edition

What Platforms Is This Issue Affecting: All of them

I’ve been playing the game for a few days now and the screenshot gallery built into the game was working fine until I loaded it up right now to find all but two screenshots missing from the entire in-game screenshot gallery. As I’ve checked on the official Minecraft Feedback Forum (link to the issue on other platforms here), the mostly cause for this issue is due to the file compression format. Since the format isn’t supported on the console, this needs to be fixed. Might I suggest a way to fix this: allow the screenshots to be saved on the PS5’s media gallery rather than the in-game screenshot gallery, this would resolve the issue.

I can’t provide more details than the ones I’ve already outlined in the original post. For a week, the PS5 version of the game was working fine until the incident occurred. The built-in feature in the game (not a mod or pack, a feature that you guys have included as is), that feature that lets you take screenshots via the pause menu, is the culprit behind this issue. It still shows 2 screenshots in my screenshot gallery in the main menu and pause menu, as you can see in the original uploaded media, it was 12. After I loaded the game up after a week, it went from 12 to 2, I was like “Eh? Where did my screenshots go?!” - it doesn’t save the shots to the PS5 media gallery, so until you guys fix this issue, then it’s not resolved.

Steps to Reproduce: 

1.  On a new PS5 console, install the PS5 version of Minecraft from the PlayStation Store and use the original PlayStation 4 Edition disc to play the game

2.  Import an existing Bedrock Edition world from your PS4 save files

3.  Open the pause menu and select “Get a screenshot shot”, do this multiple times

4. Create a new survival mode world using a seed id rather than a template

5. Open the pause menu and select “Get a screenshot shot” to take photo mode shots, do this multiple times

6. After a real life week, 1 week exactly, you might notice screenshots becoming missing from your gallery on your Minecraft profile

7. Same issue occurs each time
