Skull Refuge Mac OS

broken image


Have you ever been faced with the need to install a new operating system on a crashed PC but realize that you don't have the installation disc? For most people, such a case is always discouraging and disheartening because they know that the only way to install a new OS is to use an installation disc. Actually, all you need is a USB with a good capacity and a utility like Rufus. Rufus is a free, portable open-source utility that you can use to create bootable USB flash drives. Rufus is small in size, but it surprisingly has everything you need as far as the above are concerned.

The Schuylkill River (/ ˈ s k uː l k ɪ l / SKOOL-kil, locally / ˈ s k uː k ə l / SKOO-kəl) is a river running northwest to southeast in eastern Pennsylvania, which was improved by navigations into the Schuylkill Canal.Several of its tributaries drain major parts of the center-southern and easternmost Coal Regions in the state. It flows for 135 miles (217 km) from Pottsville to.

So I've purchased and received my Akitio Node, which works flawlessly with my Skull Canyon NUC in Win 10 (it even uses Optimus, meaning I don't have to connect my monitors to the GTX 1060!) Mac OS is coming along. I've got it humming as a regular Hackintosh, but I have yet to get Sierra to recognize anything connected over the TB3 port. A free Mac application to help you avoid distracting websites. Pirate appreciates the inclusion of ARRR with third party wallets.

Does Rufus Have a Mac Version?

Rufus is primarily a Windows application and currently, it supports 64 or 32 bit Windows XP/7/8/10 only. This means that you can not use Rufus on the normal Mac computers. If you need to run Rufus on a Mac, then it will be imperative for the computer to have a dual boot Windows installed on Mac. However, this is not an easy task at all.

Island of captivity mac os. To those in the dark, this simply means that you will need to have a Windows Operating system installed in your Mac computer. However, if you didn't want to have two operating systems running on the same machine so that you can access Rufus, there are quite a number of alternatives you can use to achieve the same functionalities of Rufus on Mac.

Rufus for Mac Alternative 1: UUByte ISO Editor

UUByte ISO Editor is by far one of the best ISO toolkits for those who want a seamless process in creating, burning, extracting and editing ISO images. Unlike Rufus, it has both Windows and Mac versions so you don't have to worry about not having Rufus for Mac or the need to install two operating systems in your Mac.

This ISO editor can effortlessly burn ISO image to DVD, CD or USB which you can then go ahead and use as a bootable disc for new installation. The tool is also versatile enough to create an ISO archive from folders or external sources, in addition to extracting or mounting ISO files to Mac or Windows computers. With over 220,000 users worldwide, it is a clear winner among the ISO toolkits available in the market today.

Why Choose UUByte ISO Editor

  • Full ISO toolkit for Windows and Mac.
  • Easily create bootable USB or DVD from Windows ISO.
  • 5X faster burning speed.
  • Excellent customer support.

How to burn ISO to USB on Mac using UUByte ISO Editor: Please download UUByte ISO Editor for Mac and install the app. Then drag and drop the app icon to Application folder so you can open the app from Launchpad. After that, insert a USB stick and click 'Burn' button at the first screen. Now import Windows ISO to the program and start burning ISO to USB by clicking 'Burn' button at the bottom of the Window. Finally, wait for 10 minutes to get the job done.

Rufus for Mac Alternative 2: UNetbootin

Unetbootin (Universal Netboot Installer) , is another cross-platform utility toolkit that makes a great alternative to Rufus on Mac. It has the ability to load and install various Linux distros on Mac. It is easy to use and supports a myriad of platforms. All you have to do is select an ISO file or the specific distribution you want to download and then simply choose the target drive. It also comes with a nice GUI, which further adds to the user experience during use.

Pros:

  • Support Windows, Mac and Linux.
  • Able to download Linux ISO within the program.
  • Easily create ISO image from files or folders.

Cons:

  • Non-native user interface.
  • Lower success rate on new USB drives.
  • Lack support for CD or DVD.

Rufus for Mac Alternative 3: Etcher

Etcher is another great Rufus alternative for Mac. It has been designed to allow you to easily and comfortably burn ISO images to USB drives and SD cards. The utility comes with an advanced interface which may be intimidating on first glance, but after going through the simple user guide, getting around to use the utility becomes a breeze.

Simply download this tool, launch it, and then choose the IMG file you are interested in burning. You will then select the location of the target USB drive or SD card and then wait for it to do its magic. It is lightweight and relatively fast, so you won't have to wait for a whole day for the burning process to end.

Pros:

  • Polish user interface.
  • Support USB drives as well as SD cards.
  • Easy to use.

Cons:

  • Being loaded slowly on startup.
  • Get stuck at burning process easily.
  • Poor support for Windows 10 ISO.

Verdict:

Rufus is a great application for burning ISO to USB. Unfortunately, there is no Mac version yet. So for burning ISO to USB on Mac, you have to use third-party alternatives like UUByte ISO Editor to get it done. The suggestions in this post almost do the same thing as Rufus on Windows so don't worry about the functionality. Go ahead and pick up the best rufus alternative according to your experience.

Beta Leftovers
This stuff's been in storage for a long time..

Unused Gear

Shroomcap

Inside rsrc/item/gear/helm/shroomcap is a fairly old mushroom helmet with two variants, 'Shroom Cap' is orange with player-colored spots, while 'Ronin Gasa' is a light yellow striped mushroom. Both are very blatantly unfinished as Shroom Cap contains noticeable gaps in the model and Ronin Gasa has four gaping holes in the model above the player's face.

Surprisingly, this item was given rendered icons with the 2013 HUD redesign just as the beta items were, despite how unfinished it is. In particular, the Ronin Gasa icon erroneously displays the model's holes in full view.

Super Brawl Crown

Located in rsrc/item/gear/helm/doubleploom is the Super Brawl Crown, which bears a striking resemblance to the Royal Jelly Crown, though they aren't identical. Super Brawl was the original PVP mode in Spiral Knights, and the winners in each category would receive this costume helmet as a prize. It lasted for seven days before being removed from the players' inventories and given to the next week's winners. When Super Brawl was removed, the crown went with it, and the mode was eventually succeeded by Lockdown. Despite that, it also got a rendered item icon, and a rather flashy one at that.

  • The Super Brawl Crown.

  • The Super Brawl Crown's inventory icon.

Nick's Costume

Nick, the head developer of Spiral Knights for several years, left the game in early 2014 to pursue his own development. He would often use a GM-only costume exclusive to him to make himself look like an Impostocube, his 'avatar'. Despite his long absence the item icon for this costume still exists in rsrcuiiconinventorycostumehelm.

Zombie Helm

Included in rsrc/item/gear/helm/doubleploom is a slightly odd helmet that resembles a Zombie.

Royal Pith Helm?

Mac Os Catalina

Located in rsrc/item/gear/helm/pith is a strange purple pith helmet with a Royal Jelly crown on top of it.

Frozen Calibur

Mac

Calibur's file contains a preset for a Calibur with a frosty blade. The skull-adorned hilt and the form of the blade hints that it may have been an early Cold Iron Carver, but it may have been a separate sword entirely. It, too, has a rendered icon, named 'frost_sword'.

  • The frozen Calibur.

  • The sword's icon.

Dread Skelly Flourish

Located in rsrc/item/weapon/sword/flourish is a Skelly set themed Final Flourish. At face value it appears to reuse the Dread Skelly Shield's texture, but it actually has a completely unique one. Not only that, but its texture is set up to be recolored in-game, similar to a copy of Dread Skelly Shield's model. The Skelly set notably lacks a sword.

Nightblade Variants

Nightblade's model contains textures for what are presumably Iceburst and Fireburst variants, and even an entirely different model designed as a Proto variant.

Mac

Calibur's file contains a preset for a Calibur with a frosty blade. The skull-adorned hilt and the form of the blade hints that it may have been an early Cold Iron Carver, but it may have been a separate sword entirely. It, too, has a rendered icon, named 'frost_sword'.

  • The frozen Calibur.

  • The sword's icon.

Dread Skelly Flourish

Located in rsrc/item/weapon/sword/flourish is a Skelly set themed Final Flourish. At face value it appears to reuse the Dread Skelly Shield's texture, but it actually has a completely unique one. Not only that, but its texture is set up to be recolored in-game, similar to a copy of Dread Skelly Shield's model. The Skelly set notably lacks a sword.

Nightblade Variants

Nightblade's model contains textures for what are presumably Iceburst and Fireburst variants, and even an entirely different model designed as a Proto variant.

Calibur Flourish

rsrc/item/weapon/sword/saber contains a single model file of a long, narrow sword similar to Flourish but with a different handguard. It reuses several of Calibur and Brandish's texture variants, including the unused frozen Calibur variant, with their particle effects intact.

Winterfest Pulsar

Pulsar's files contain a very festive reskin that was almost definitely intended to be released during the 2013 Winterfest event along with the matching reskins Deadly Candy Poker and Nog Blaster, as it appeared in the files alongside them. Strangely, it also received a rendered item icon named 'eggnog_blaster', the same name given to one of the other weapons.

Unused Graphics

Old HUD

Despite the HUD overhaul in 2013, nearly all of the previous HUD's graphics were kept intact, although some of the accompanying interface.dat files were removed. This includes a lot of the original paletted item icons, like the (still) unused lance weapon icon. Never has there been even an implication of a lance to be added to the game.

Old Coins

Mac Os Versions

While nearly every folder in rsrc/item/pickup is completely empty, two of them still contain a single texture: coin_gold and coin_silver, both textures depicting what appear to be early currency. They're both very simple and radically different when compared to the final game's Crowns, and their texture structure indicates that they probably used a model that was removed, if they ever even had one.

  • coin_gold

  • coin_silver

Special Vitapods

Not only does the Vitapod texture contain an unused wing, paired with it in rsrc/item/consumable/vitapod are two unused variants: one purple (icon_5pod) and one yellow (icon_omegapod), both with the unused wings. Even more interestingly, however, the Vitapod model has presets for both of these. The purple one is apparently called a Super Vitapod, and is loaded as three Vitapods grouped together with no number to indicate their effectiveness. The yellow one is an Omega Pod, and comes with both a halo of light and a pair of the unused Vitapod wings. Notably there is another folder in consumables named vitapod_super that is completely empty.

  • A regular Vitapod showcasing the unused wing.

  • '5pod'

  • Omega Pod

  • 5pod.. or, SuperVita, in action.

  • An Omega Pod being rendered, demonstrating the likely reason for the wing in each texture file.

Core Token

Grouped with the other tokens in rsrc/ui/icon/inventory is a token with a circle on it named icon_token-core, it has been in the files since late 2012 at least. One could assume it has to do with the core, however in what way remains unknown.

Unused Prestige Icon

A file exists with the prestige icons named prank_006, implying that there was to be a prestige rank beyond the final one, however the icon is blank.

Support Collector

The Collector, the main boss of the Battle Sprite missions, has a texture that shares a color scheme and design with friendly Mecha Knights, implying a possible support version was planned.

Shufflebot

Shufflebots, the inconsequential training enemy located in the training hall of Haven, have an unused texture that resembles a regular enemy more than a knight-created training device. It matches the Scuttlebot's color scheme rather well.

Badger

Wolvers possess a texture that removes their tails and makes them resemble badgers, as indicated by the name of the preset in the model.

Mewkat Aggravation State

Mewkats, a rare variant of the Spookat enemy, do not enter an attacking state. As a direct result, this aggravated form is never actually seen in-game.

Test Level

Located in rsrc/world/tileset/dev is a set of run of the mill test level textures and tiles.

Creepy Skybox

Located in rsrc/world/skybox/consumed is a pretty unsettling skybox, with an entirely black background, a grayscale spinning floor, pages spinning around the area and creatures biting from within the darkness. Thematically it would work well in an event involving the Owlite Keep or the Kat tribe, however it isn't actually a skybox, as it renders itself in the playing field instead of as a background.

Early Sky Islands

Within rsrc/world/skybox/grass_island_night is a skybox depicting an oddly non-mechanical sky with other sky islands levels floating by in the background. It doesn't render quite right.

Model Viewer Skybox

rsrc/world/skybox/modelviewer contains a couple of backgrounds that are probably used for a developer's model viewer, however they go unused in the released game.

  • model.dat

  • model_simple.dat

World Map

Located in rsrc/world/skybox/worldmap is an adorable yet enormous miniature of Haven. While Haven itself is made out to be much larger than is ever seen during gameplay, it is about ten percent of the model at best as it mostly consists of large mountains and crevices. The model also has passing clouds, and the complete skybox file applies sunset/night lighting to it. Some settings imply that it was for the rescue camp, and the skybox's placement with Haven in the far northeast would fall in line with that. The model does not reflect the bazaar, or the garrison (which possibly had not existed at the time this was made), and the west entrance to the Arcade is missing. Oddly enough however, there's an entrance to the east that's quite a bit farther out than the actual one.

  • The miniature Haven.

  • The whole model is actually enormous in size, however this shows off most of it.

Unused Objects

Opened Core

rsrc/world/skybox/core_approach contains a model named model_hatch_open.dat which is, as one could assume, the core's hatch opened. While it will hopefully be used in the future, it has been in the files for quite a long time, and none of the models have proper animations to show it opening.

Star

Present in rsrc/item/consumable/star is a rather pretty model of a flashing star with texture variants for different elements. It could be assumed that it was a collectible, but its real use is unknown.

Beast Dens

Located in rsrc/world/prop/beast_dens is, fittingly enough, a set of beast den models. While a few of them are just tileset decorations at face value, there's also a separate nest made specifically for the mini mobs found in Compound levels, with a destroyed model as well. The folder itself seems to have appeared in 2013, which would put it in line with the release of Compounds. Even more interestingly though is a set of Chromalisk nests, full of eggs with unique textures for each 'breed' of Chromalisk that seems to relate to an unused particle, fx_chroma_egg, that depicts an egg's contents spilling on the ground. This is the only object that the particle could relate to.

  • The mini mob nest, displayed here with Dust Bunnies.

  • A Chromalisk nest.

  • Once again, a Chromalisk nest.

Unused Enemies

Jelly Green Giant

The Jelly Green Giant is essentially a reskinned Royal Jelly with only two of its attacks: tackling and spawning miniature green jellies. It only spawned in one place: a small seemingly optional arena to the left of the elevator in Aurora Isles: The Jelly Farm II. As this particular level was common in the Firefly Gate, a gate present in very early versions meant for new players, the Jelly Green Giant absolutely crushed them, and the arena it was in was walled off, effectively removing it from the game. Its mini jellies, however, still appear in Royal Jelly Palace and occasionally some danger rooms.

Temp Battlepod

rsrc/character/npc/monster/blastcore contains a temporary Battlepod that's very different in design from the final. It has some of the final's animations but lacks quite a few, and the death animation is a generic enemy death.

Gold Enemies

Gold versions of Trojans and Gun Puppies exist in the files after having been removed, probably due to being completely invincible. Later, when drones were added, similar golden, also invincible versions of Shankles and Wisps were added.

  • A golden Gun Puppy.

  • A golden Trojan.

Enemy Firestorm Skull

While not unused, the friendly skull NPC in Firestorm Citadel has the Spookat's animations for moving, biting and dying, implying it was to be an enemy instead. It even contains variants for shock and curse versions, and two models that mimic Lord Vanaduke's mask phases, although this isn't the model that Vanaduke uses. It's known as 'reaper' internally.

The curse variant seems to be used for the head of the Phantom, and the Phantom's sounds are named reaper as well, however the skull never uses any of its own animations.

  • The skull's shock variant.

  • The skull's curse variant.

  • Lord Vanaduke's mask. Once again, this is not the one used during his boss fight.

  • Lord Vanaduke's mask watered.

Vog Cub

The Wolver model still has a preset for a Vog Cub, an enemy that was only seen in the preview event and the promo video. Now, it's only alluded to through the Vog Cub set of armor.

Mecha Giant

rsrc/character/npc/monster/mechaknight contains a model named model_giant, it is a Mecha Knight with a large glowing 'eye', a large gear on the back of its head and sparks emitting from its exhaust pipes. There is also an allied variant which is surrounded by a very large bright blue glow.

  • model_giant

  • The seemingly allied version, with an intensely large glow.

Unused Levels

Water Temple

The most notable unused level of late is only implied: added some time in 2013, several tileset and skybox folders exist for an alleged water temple level. It seems to (naturally) have a lot of water, including frozen pools of water that can be walked on (assumed based on a few preset names). The water temple content looks slightly rough and unfinished, and the most polished part (a skybox) was removed from the game's files. Whether it was ever intended to be used or not is debatable.


Oddities

Maulos, the boss of the danger mission Heart of Ice, is a slightly modified Trojan boss who carries a large glacial club. Interestingly however, this club is stored in rsrc/item/weapon/sword/heartofice, with the Knights' weapons, normally enemy and monster weapons are stored in rsrc/item/weapon/npc. The only unique boss weapon to share these circumstances since Maulos is Groat's frying pan, in rsrc/item/weapon/sword/saucepan. Both weapons can function as player weapons with a bit of file replacement.

Located in rsrc/item/consumable is an almost empty folder named food. According to Spiral Knights' head developer Nick Popovich, Spiral Knights was once intended to have food items that would lure enemies. The food was to work like normal items, it would be held above a knight's head and different food items would attract different species. This was cut mostly due to dominant strategy, as it was thought that nobody would use food when flat out fighting is faster.

Warmaster Seerus' internal name is 'cogmaster'.
