EA's Origin Blows

Ok Origin why is it ok to knock the very games you launch out of play just for your updates?

So I am playing fifa 13 then suddenly the screen goes dark then my desktop shows up while my game keeps playing.
What program was so aggresively demanding my attention?

Its fucking ORIGIN!

This happens all the time there is not a good way to turn it off either I looked. The actual game launcher is ruining the actual game. No fucking wonder that people hack these games so they don't have to deal with these lousy fucking launch applications that care more about themselves than the actual games they were designed to provide.

Get your dicks out of each others asses and stop fucking ruining my gaming experience ORIGIN!

Also EA can you get someone to fix the last update you did to FIFA 13. It is ruining the game.

Tri Def: A 3D Dissapointment

Tri Def: A 3D Dissapointment

Why you shouldn't waste your money on Tri Def 3D.

 These guys make 3d software drivers and it is not a wonder that they are outclassed by Nvidia.

 Horrible support! Good luck if you want anything but a rude person who doesn't know anything when looking to trouble shoot. They don't have a way to talk to tech support,  only email. Basically, unless you want to buy another licence for their worthless software they can't help you on the phone.

 Tri def only supports a few different 3d televisions, meaning, you thought you were going to watch a blue ray on your new 3d television. Well, you are not unless you have one of the 15 televisions they actually cover.

 It is not stable at all. They are constantly crashing games and movies. I have had to re-install the program many times because of problems with their update process. Their forums are full of people who have their software but can't play 3d games. The most disturbing part is there is no one from tri def responding or writing solutions. Its just a forum to whine not find answers.


 So if you are looking to play 3d games or view a 3d movie just pay the little extra for a Nvidia 3d system so you can actually watch and play the 3d media instead of spending time wishing that tri def actually worked. 


AMD has got to find another solution than Tri Def just one more reason to jump the AMD ship.

Adobe PS Gradient Screw Ups

Photoshop needs to be able to easily place gradients on shapes. What is wrong with your software. I cannot find any answer on how to run this effectively.

What is worse is they have it working in illustrator but not in photoshop. Who F%&$ing cares about vector versus pixel make a fix! make it auto run what it needs to. If you need to manually alter after the auto setup then allow it. What is going on now is heinous. 

Solution:

Basically, do not go to the tool bar on the side where it says gradients. Instead in PS it is all on the bottom of the layers panel. I know this process has to do with vectorizing but I believe there is a way to automate the style mask  using the normal tool bar gradient button.  Illustrator already works this way.

Here is the video I used to find the solution

Gradient in PS (hit control)

I sometime get infuriated at my computer when I cant figure out where the handle is to make a change I need like using gradients in PS on shapes. I for some reason always forget the funky gradient rules in Photoshop, much to my chagrin. Here is the answer to my fury. Oh wait it didn't work raged again
