Fall Guys - Game Security Violation Detected

 It was my first time loading the game Fall Guys when I encountered a weird error

Easy Anti-Cheat Error

Game Security Violation Detected [#00000000D] [iCUE.exe]


Solution

If you encounter this error in Fall Guys (or any other game), Just open your task manager and end process the software being detected as a Security Violation. In this case, it was my iCUE.exe software. Then you should be able to play the game with no problem

Diablo II Resurrected - Defeating Act I Boss - Andariel


"Andariel was the only female Evil. She aided the Lesser Evils for many years, but eventually, she lost faith in their plots. Two decades ago, she chose to help Diablo during his resurgence and seized the Citadel of the Sightless Eye. Ultimately, she perished at the hands of brave heroes." - Deckard Cain

Andariel is the Act I boss for Diablo II Resurrected. Her main ability is the Poison Spray that spreads in a large area. Melee combat will also poison you.

Defeating Andariel

1. Antidote Potions. Make sure to drink one before engaging her to battle. Antidote Potion gives you +50 Poison Resistance making you take less damage from her attacks. Of course, bring extra as well.



2. Use any Fire-based damage. Andariel has a Fire Resistance of -50

3. If you are having difficulty dodging her Poison Spray, lure her to the open space below the map. Its easier to run around the pit



If you have decent equipment, beating her shouldn't be any problem. Make sure to open a Town Portal before engaging. So it's easy to get back should you die from the encounter.

Pokemon Unite - Scoring Guide

In Pokemon Unite battles, goal scores aren't displayed until the end of the match. They do, however, have big notices that pop up on your screen in between battles. These notices would help you determine if you are leading or trailing in terms of goal scores. 


While the notices don't tell you your exact score, it tells you how much you are leading or trailing against opposing team.

Battle Notices

  1. It's a close battle! - There's a 0-20 points difference between teams
  2. We're in the lead! - You are ahead of your opponent by 21-99 points.
  3. We have a huge lead! - You are ahead of your opponent by 100 or more points
  4. We're struggling to keep up! - You are behind your opponent by 22-99 points
  5. We're REALLY struggling! - You are behind your opponent by 100 or more points
The alerts above show up at the 5:00, 3:00, 2:00, and 1:00 minute marks. 

Don't forget that at the 2:00 minute mark, Aeos Orbs goal that you make will score double. Of course same goes for your opponents.

Pokemon Unite - Map Path Settings

 As we all know, team chatting is very difficult (or non-existent) in Pokemon Unite. Early problems arise when you have poor coordination with your teammates on which lane to choose. Sometimes 4 of you will go bottom. Sometimes 2 of you will go jungle. Luckily the game has a feature that can 'help' lessen this problem.

Map Path Settings

Map Path Settings allows you to give a signal to your teammates on which lane do you want to choose. This helps you and your teammates decide which lane should you proceed when the game start. It can also help you decide which pokemon to bring to the party based on the Map Path available.

I hope you do spend time using this feature, especially on your rank games. It will save you a lot of time and will increase your chance of good gameplay with your teammates.

You can access this by pressing 'ZL' while in the waiting room.
