This sounds like he's not on the LAN correctly as a 'trusted' computer. The save is obviously a local save so I can only assume the system is thinking he is not seeing the LAN settings correctly. I know this link is about businesses more so, but there could be some sub-setting stopping the connection. This has steps to double check if all 3 PCs are definitely on the same network: How to Tell What Unknown Devices Are Connected to Your Router | Small Business - Chron.com SMALLBUSINESS.CHRON.COM How to Tell What Unknown Devices Are Connected to Your Router. If a hacker or another unauthorized user connects to your home or business router, you can identify the unknown user by the Media Access... If the LAN is connected then it might be then about the Minecraft world save. Did you create it before he was added to the LAN?

Could we? I mean, how dare we? Try and stay in Division 2 and mount a challenge to the promised land? Nah, you're alright thanks 🤣 An incredible start to the night had us thinking the impossible of keeping ourselves in the mighty Championship and then mounting a challenge to get up to Division 1 for the first time in our FGFC FIFA 21 existence. A mighty battle started with FG going 1-0 down after half an hour. The main contributing factor went to Torpedo Tony @TonyAE86 having lag, but not by the conventional issues we usually find. This time out it was the...Washing Machine. Yep, apparently all of the spins impact his WiFi speeds these days. Having said that though, we immediately sprung into life with a bullet from Gin Tronic @tronic44 at the near post. The positivity was growing, and with a goal from either side in a matter of minutes to make it 2-2, we found ourselves with a corner. Tony looking for our headshot king, Dennis Rodman @Lurch ...but we didn't expect the following at all. Mulletov @G_dub52 rounded off a 4-3 win in our first match and we were pumped for what was to come. Forgetting the unfortunate blip straight after where we went unfortunately down 3-1, even though we dominated the play througout, the momentum was took forward to the third game of the night where it was a near perfect performance. The assist king @Macca89 got his shooting boots on and rounded up the Man of the Match perfect 10 performance with a sublime hatrick from some amazing assists and team play throughout a 6-0 riot. Tom @LordBaguette was notching the penalties early doors and the back 4 of Club Tropicana @GazzaGarratt, Sensual Choc @jordie1892 , Dennis Rodman @Lurch and Torpedo Tony @TonyAE86 had a stormer. Unfortunately, previous days results alongside the second game blip left FGFC needing yet another win just to survive relegation to Division 3. A stellar performance with yet another @Macca89 goal set us up nicely but an equaliser shortly followed and for all the tea in Rich's house, we just couldn't push a winner past the keeper. It was worth mentioning though James yet again kept us in the game again with some fine defending. A quick highlight reel below was a delight to clip. So Season 44 was upon us and after a short break and a swap around of all our positions, we commenced another season in Division 3. When all the positions change up somewhat, we always struggle to find the momentum again and it hurt us badly at the start, going down heavily in a 3-0 loss. We dug deep to then take a 4-1 lead in the next game to nearly throw it away with two late goals...apparently something about James making a rare mistake had to to be noted down on the stats. I'm not that harsh though, so i'll just write about for everyone to see rather than stick on the infographic below 😎 Inconsistency was definitely showing again though with another 2-0 defeat hitting us hard, we then tried to buck the trend of losing too many matches early doors. With the game poised at 2-2 and battling extremely hard into the closing stages, GD Pontevel broke forward after another chance for FGFC was saved. The rest was history. Can somebody lend us a spare FIFA script when they get chance please? A successful 3-1 win followed this stinging defeat, but we couldn't keep up the levels we had started out at the beginning of the night and aptly ended the evening in a goal crazy 5-4 defeat. Not a night we expected and I think the results were extremely harsh on us all, especially when there was some lovely football being played and a few belters that went in. @Macca89 showed his worth this week topping the Goals and Assists columns with Connor @JamaicanSteve starting to slot in nicely after his loan deal was made permanent when Chill Ya Beans United accepted FGFC's bid of 2 baked beans tins and a packet of Uncle Ben's Golden Rice. We're still fortunate they didn't check the Use By Date in advance. Superb night of banter and laughs along the way as always.

Unfortunately @JamaicanSteve meat substitutes like Veggie styled burgers, etc i'm actually allergic too (not even joking either!) which is a shame as that would be an easy first step. I've worked out I need my protein, or else I really struggle for energy through the day. @RenFengge , I've branched out a little to have more veg stuff, I just have to be more consistent with it I suppose. Not much looked into shakes as if im totally honest, I always worry about what the hell is in those powder things! Now I could do more Oats for sure. I have a Protein nut bar after I have small lunch atm which helps fill me up (although i'd 4 of them in one sitting if I could!). I need to have sweet Oatmeal dishes though, as i'm crap with spicy type stuff. I don't mind baked beans even though I never ask for them with my dinner. Might need to check out some different variations to see how they can bring out better flavours. Thanks Doc!

I was just about to write, that I think its more about how much time he plays on which one the most. PSVR is more accessible imo and with the games available because its pretty much plug and play. PC VR machines will always dominate the statistics from the technical space than the Playstation ones, however PC will always be fine tuning things alot more than a Playstation (not always, but thats pretty consistent with whatever you buy for a PC). It might be worth understanding what types of games he is thinking of playing on it. Has he given you a hint on what he has liked the look of at all?

Thanks to @Greboth, my son has had something for the first time keep himself off Fortnite for more than a day! 🤣🤣 Dax got one for Christmas as we struggled on what to get someone that just does Fortnite on a PS4. He now spends his time split across that game still but the other half is on the PSVR with Five Nights at Freddy's game. He even used some of his Xmas money on the expansion pack rather than more V-bucks!!! Ultimately, the kit works really well. You need a bit of space but not as much as you may think as you can sit down with it. What I would say is you need to also buy the PS4 move sensor controllers separately as i've yet to see one bundle that comes with the VR headset. Strange marketing product design but it is what it is. Lots of wires to be aware of so you need to be just ask them to careful they don't trip up on anything. But seeing the joy he has experience motion games is great to see. He also has Iron Man VR and his autistic side loves this because i can see him shake with excitement when he flies into the sky. How old are your kids again, Clive?

I thought James @Lurch stood out last night after only having a little practice session over the weekend, his times were unreal and although he was unlucky in the first race after spinning out on the first lap, his Laguna Seca drive was superb. I might've passed him if I hadn't have spun off after changing tyres but thats the key - being consistent and making next to no errors rewards you in the end. Special mentions from me for Paul @slamminbones who had some great race speed on Brands Hatch, closest i've seen you in one lap race speed to the top runners and also Rich @tronic44 for driving a solid race on Brands Hatch and finishing 3rd, his best finish to date I believe.

I thought this would be a great way to start sharing how well we thought others did in the night as no two evenings are usually the same with all of us. I think this will boost some people when they think they might not have done so well but also gives us a little highlight for each week that we can think of how others did, not just ourselves. If we can try and get one up after each Tuesday race night thats the plan but obviously if others can help me get the poll up before I get here that would be awesome stuffs. Its really easy getting a poll up and adding the names. I'll make sure it shows on the Game Hub GT Sport page too! Great racing everyone, keep up the awesome fun we're having! GGFG Racers last night: @Greboth @JBR-Kiwi @G_dub52 @tronic44 @phil bottle @GazzaGarratt @Lurch @Shucker @Misneach_ @slamminbones @Stretch616 @TonyAE86 @Mikepjbell @Macca89 @LordBaguette

The number is quite numbing really. I won't get into the political BS - my overall view is they're all a bunch of c u next Tuesdays, regardless what side. The only thing I wonder is if that small minority of people that didn't follow the guidelines from the outset, I wonder where we'd be. Its all ifs and maybes now though, so for me, i'm still following the guidelines and hope others can too (whether we disagree with it or not) and i'd expect and hope we could get back quicker to some things that are more the normality we experienced before this horrible disease was here. I think we all need that huge FG meet up sooner rather than later 🙏 Stay safe everyone. Glad we have this place to still connect us all.

@LordBaguette so here's what i've found so far. Others can recommend anything else and also say if these are half decent: 27 inch BenQ. 1ms response time and 144hz. £249.99. Tons of reviews that this is exteremely solid and good value for money BenQ MOBIUZ EX2710 27 Inch HDRi IPS Gaming Monitor, 144 Hz 1ms FreeSync Premium FHD, PS5/Xbox X Compatible: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK Shop for BenQ PC products at the Amazon.co.uk Computers & Accessories store. 31.5 inch ASUS. 1ms response time and 165hz. £399. Lots of reviews and a bigger monitor, probably the biggest i'd ever go for a monitor. It is curved though so that might put you off if you still care about that. ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQ1B Curved Gaming Monitor 31.5 inch WQHD (2560x1440), 165Hz(Above 144Hz), Extreme Low Motion Blur, Adaptive-sync, FreeSync Premium, 1ms (MPRT), HDR10, Black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK Buy 24.5 inch ASUS. 0.5ms response time and 165hz. £249.97. Same price as the 27 BenQ however significant improvements and 24/25 inch is a good size if you are eventually looking for dual monitors in the future within your set up (trust me, if you're going PC and staying with consoles, you'll want two monitors). ASUS VG258QR 25 Inch (24.5 Inch) FHD (1920 x 1080) Esports Gaming Monitor, 0.5 ms, Up to 165 Hz, DP, HDMI, DVI-D, Super Narrow Bezel, FreeSync, Low Blue Light, Flicker Free ,Black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK Buy There are a few more cheaper 24 inch ones nearer the £200-£240 mark that will honestly do you fine if you're looking to save money as thats just under half your budget.

Sells more though with the RE tag @phil bottle 😎 RE4 looked fantastic and I used to watch my mate nail that game, it was so refreshingly different. But it was still third person, just from a different view. I saw the following tweet from a game director I follow and it hit one of the critical points for me: The whole aesthetic of seeing your character in RE games, made it iconic and unique to their franchise. Always good to try to do things differently. RE4 and RE7 did that. One did brilliantly, the other was Marmite. Ithink they stuck with FPS because of pure re-use of game assets in a world where people want games coming out quicker than the 6/7 years it takes to build one from scratch. Don't blame them but this is why it won't sell mega bucks. People should give the RE Revelations game a go. It has co-op ability which makes the game very unique. Not the greatest controls but then what RE game does! Thats where I thought they could push this franchise a little more down that road.

I'm not seeing what difference I'm losing on my PS5 btw - am I supposed to see a significant difference? It might be helpful for Tom to know this too if he is gonna get a PS5 eventually. For me, my PS5 is on one and the PC is on the other and initial view is that when we do get a PS5 game to play 😄 it looks bloody fantastic, mainly down to the frame rate the new games are made with (Destiny 2 PvP and CoD Cold War are 120FPS)

I didn't hear about that tbh. Also, how much does HDR really make a difference. I'd love to see how much the latest TVs and Monitors are different to the current 4k 144hz. I think he needs one sharpish @J4MES OX4D cos he aint gonna cope with one TV in the house for much longer!

Any reason you said no to a curved one @LordBaguette ? I thought i'd never buy a curved one but a good deal turned up on a 24" MSI one and now having two of them in front of me, I can't see any disadvantage to them. If its for longevity for wheh you get a PC, you should think about size as you might want to have 2 monitors over time. The 24" ones I have I think are around £220-250 so I can find them if needed. 1ms response, 144HZ, etc, so all top end settings.

The jump may have been too big for him but i'm getting really fed up of the instant success pressure that is put on managers today. Gone are the days where you can just buy a squad to win the title - you have to get the balance in the team to work and that can take more than a few seasons. It was only unsurprising to me because it was Chelsea but i stupidly hoped that Abramovich had started to change a little. Even winning a few things there doesn't keep you safe these days. Its more a case of be careful what you wish for. How has he not worked out that there is a trend in removing managers every year isn't healthy for his club. There is no other clearer trend as to why Chelsea aren't doing as well as they should.

I might have to push on with going back to remastered RE2 & 3. I think it looks great but I don't think FPS with RE games is for me. I like how theyre incoporating decent additions to previous successful games but i'm totally with you both on the price so far. Not worth £65. In fact most PS5 titles aren't worth 65 squids!!

Gutted i couldn;t make it on Thursday. With stuff at home meaning i needed multiple breaks i just didn't want to commit and leave you hanging and waiting around. I'm waiting for Hayley to get back from the shops today so I can work out some time to hopefully be available for runs this weekend. Happy to plough myself into any triumph or raid we're thinking of too.

No, i didn't get anywhere really in terms of fibre. All i've done in simple terms is try to eat less shit. Basically less chocolate and biscuits. Also, try to not drink too many beers really late, which i've swapped out many nights for a few cups of tea. Oh, and also not to try an eat that shit far too late. I get hungry really late on gaming so that where a cuppa comes into play which stops me eating. I still need to find more stuff. In the mornings i'll try and switch to these shreddies with raisins in them as I know that will have fibre. I'm also always better when I can get my blowout running around a football pitch for an hour a week. Unfortunately lockdown has scuppered that so i need to force myself out to run at some stage. I'm just struggling in that department due to how busy our life is with the pups, home schooling, work, fg, blah, blah, blah, etc. Consicous i don't wanna say that all the time as it can easily become an excuse not to do the above stuff - but I just need to balance and sometimes not be too harsh on myself. This year has so far been a way better start for me physical health wise. I just need to balance that out and give mroe time for my mental side of things for a few weeks I reckon. Your Fitness PPR though has me back thinking about HIT programmes so might try and make one for a weekend day perhaps at home.

Good to know other things are still working. I just really wish loadout drops were 20k to buy - minimum. So many people just play > Get Cash > Buy Loadout > Try and Last out until final circle. Its a viable option but it shuts down so many ideas on how to play the game that equally work. Warzone is a fantastic gamemode where if you don't play that strat, virtually every game feels completely different.

Thanks Tommy. No refunds though, I need that money to pay for food for the wife and kids, obvs 😄 We needed to show more of everything here as its just so underutilised its a real shame. Hopefully first impressions seems to be helping it. re: pinkish colour, I'll take a look at that at some point. Our red in the FG is actually off red already and that red is the same FG red with transparent elements added so its possibly the faded colour that is doing that. I'd like to get more done so we can switch up when we want so maybe use a few different colours from our pallette. Cheers man. Anyone else hoping for specific Game Hub pages at all? I mean I kick things off but will clearly need quite a bit of help to keep it in tiptop condition.
