Collection of Energy and Stamina Stats from Properties

Collection of Energy and Stamina Stats from Properties
Updated 06/26/2012 at 12:11
 

Good News!
 

We heard your feedback and have enhanced the collection of Stamina and Energy received from your London and Brazil properties.

Now you will be able to receive the Stamina / Energy Stats from your London and Brazil properties even if they exceed the maximum value of Stamina/Energy stats in your account.

For example: If the Stamina stats on your account are 2,500/2,500 and at the same time, you also have a property from which you can collect additional 1,000 Stamina.
If you successfully collect the available 1,000 Stamina from your property, the net available Stamina in your account would appear as 3,500/2,500.

Please note that you should use these additional (surplus) stats within one hour of collecting from your property.

If the additional stats are unused even after an hour of collection from your property, They will be reset to the maximum value. (in the above example – if you do not use 3,500/2,500 Stamina in an hour of collecting from property, it will be reset to 2,500/2,500)

TRICK: To Fix Unresponse Flash Plugin In Chrome Browser


Internal Flash plugin integration hits Google Chrome

We have discussing already how To Fix Unsecure Content In Chrome Browser before. now i want to explained how To Fix Unresponse Flash Plugin In Chrome Browser

 
What started off as musings about the possible arrival of internal plug-ins in Google Chrome has already come to fruition. Both Adobe and Google have officially announced that the non-NPAPI plug-in version of Flash is ready for us to test in the latest developer channel build of Chrome.

If you've already got the build installed, you need to add a command line switch to enable the magic: --enable-internal-flash. Need help adding the switch? Check our tutorial post for more details.

Once the switch has been flipped, you'll see the confirmation dialog pictured above. There seem to be some performance benefits to the internal plugin -- the HD clip I tested on YouTube never reached more than 19% CPU utilization.

According to Adobe, "Moving forward, Google will be including Flash Player in Chrome so users will always have the most current release and a safer and more seamless experience." It makes sense for Google to start bundling the internal plug-in for a number of reasons. The internal plug-in will also automatically update itself using Chrome's built-in mechanism, eliminating the need for out-of-browser Flash updating.

The official Adobe post concludes by saying, "Our hope is that the robust integration between Chrome and Flash Player will serve as a showcase for more consistent, seamless, and efficient Web browsing experiences. We feel that this significant effort by both Google and Adobe will directly improve the speed of innovation and move the Web forward, benefiting the entire community of developers and end-users."

How to add command line switches to Google Chrome or Chromium

How to add command line switches to Google Chrome or Chromium

Sometime to many crashed issues in Google Chrome Browser make us getting frustration. This time i wanna explanation how to fix it and make us enjoyable in browsing with Google Chrome Browser.

Issues in Google Chrome or Chromium: 



Watch the video above, and refer to the notes below -- it's a simple process!
  1. Locate your Chrome or Chromium shortcut. There should be one on your desktop and one in your start menu - either one will work! 
  2. Click the shortcut with your right mouse button and choose properties
  3. Find the target box (it will be highlighted when the properties screen appears). 
  4. Left click at the end of the line (after chrome.exe). 
  5. Press space. 
  6. Add your command line switch. The result looks like this:
    C:\Users\PrinceLoa\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --enable-internal-flash 
  7. If you want to add more than one, separate each switch with a space. The result looks like this:
    C:\Users\PrinceLoa\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --enable-internal-flash --allow-running-insecure-content
