Posted: 22 Oct 2011 02:50 AM PDT



Disk Drill is a free Mac data recovery software designed natively for Mac OS: easily protect your files from accidental deletion with Recovery Vault and recover lost data from Mac disks. When something is deleted Recovery Vault makes it possible to recover not only the file itself, but also its properties, such as original file name, location, etc. So you will always be able to recover data from Mac files system (HFS/HFS+) & FAT32 partitions. Disk Drill also includes powerful S.M.A.R.T. disk monitoring right out-of-the-box; you can monitor your disks' hardware status and get automatic notifications of potential failures or other issues. If a disk or partition is failing, you can easily backup it into a disk image (DMG) which can later be mounted for recovery.

Disk Drill PRO also features a number of advanced scanning modes for data recovery of FAT, NTFS, HFS/HFS+, other file systems and formatted (initialized) drives. Using Quick Scan you can locate deleted items on FAT and NTFS disks, this scanning method is fast and accurate, but is unlikely to find data deleted long ago. With Deep Scan you can try to recover data from any disk or memory card regardless of their file system. This recovery method is long and thorough, it scans your disk in a binary mode and is capable of finding deleted files even after formatting.

Disk Drill is a professional but extremely simple Mac data recovery software that helps you rescue data on your Mac disks, external or internal hard drives, memory cards, cameras, iPods Classic, etc. So if your hard drive was damaged, or you accidentally deleted your favorite photos, music, videos and other data, no worries about data loss. Disk Drill will recover deleted files on your Mac!

If you don't want someone to undelete what you removed but it's still protected by Recovery Vault, you can specify a Master Password to protect your configuration of Disk Drill, Mac data recovery software by CleverFiles. Additionally, Disk Drill Mac Recovery features convenient scan sessions management, so you can scan a 2TB disk recovery, pause it, save a scanning session and continue it in a couple of days or even weeks (presuming you don't use the target drive to prevent data from being overwritten). You can even install Disk Drill in Portable Mode and run data recovery from your USB Flash drive.



Version 1.4.149:

Guaranteed Recovery: the new free data protection method, goes out of beta and is now officially another alternative and addition to Recovery Vault;

  • Guaranteed Recovery: now you have a greater range of time options to keep deleted items protected from overwriting;
  • Protection: List view will now display both protection icons if both methods are enabled;
  • User-friendliness: automatic logic for Guaranteed Recovery will now prevent some of the basic user configuration errors;

StarCraft II Developers Discuss New Units

Posted: 21 Oct 2011 09:11 PM PDT

Blizzcon 2011: StarCraft II's Dustin Browder and David Kim discuses new units and other tweaks coming in StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm.

 

Who Was There: Hosting this panel were game director Dustin Browder, game balance designer David Kim, and senior designer Josh Menke.

What They Talked About: Browder led this extensive panel on the state of StarCraft II's online balance and discussion of the new multiplayer units in Heart of the Swarm. The opening section focused on which match-ups were seen as the most balanced in casual and high-level play, and which were the most one-sided in certain parts of the world. Apparently, Terran has advantage over Protoss in South Korea, while Zerg has an advantage over Protoss in Europe.

Of course, the topic everyone was most excited about was the new units. Browder began the discussion by detailing the current issues facing the Terran faction. He admitted the team was disappointed by the performance of the Thor, the lack of a good option to countering a Protoss late-game Zealot rush when using the charge ability (outside of tedious kiting), and they also didn't want to give the Terrans any more gameplay options. They have enough already, Browder said.

With that in mind, he announced that the Hellion is gaining a transformation ability. When used, this ability changes the quick and nimble Hellion to the slow and tough Battle Hellion. This new unit retains the Hellion's flamethrower weapon, but is now a late-game counter to Zealots (while still being an early- to mid-game harassment unit). Next up was the Shredder. Browder explained this tiny machine is a cheap way for the Terrans to control space on the map.

When deployed, the Shredder emits a field of radiation that continually damages enemy units that stand near it. However, this unit will shut off if a friendly unit, ally unit, or friendly worker enters its range. Therefore, you have to keep it away from your army in order to be effective. In addition, the damage from the radiation waves does not stack, so keep them spread out.

Finally, there was the Warhound. Browder described this unit as a medium cost, fast moving, smaller version of the Thor that functions as an anti-mech unit. What all that means is that it's great for taking down enemy Terran or Protoss vehicles either in the air or on the ground, while also letting the Thor ascend to a true uber-unit role with vastly improved damage output. You're also now limited to one Thor at a time.

Kim took over next and laid out some of the issues facing the Zerg. In the early game, he said, the Zerg have trouble countering a well-entrenched player. Instead of fighting that player directly, they must expand into an economic battle. He also mentioned the Overseer didn't get used much, and the Corrupter had a very narrow application.

Enter the Viper, a new Zerg spellcaster unit that will replace the Overseer. It will function as a chokepoint-breaker with three support abilities. Blinding Cloud temporarily reduces the attack range of all ground units inside the cloud to melee range, as well as preventing energy-based abilities from being used. Abduct pulls a unit to the Viper's location (and is great for snatching weak units that hide in the back). Ocular Parasite lets it plant a seed into any friendly, non-massive unit, turning that unit into a detector.

The Swarm Host was next. This unit burrows into the ground and spits out waves of timed-life units called Locusts, making the Swarm Host a form of "Zerg artillery." These Locusts are free, they're endless, and they're designed to help the Zerg control more of the map. "It's the endless Zerg swarm knocking at your front door, and it won't stop until you figure out how to deal with it," Browder added.

"The Protoss ball of death is pretty strong," Kim said, introducing the third and final faction. He went on to add that they don't have a good raiding option in the early-game, nor a viable area-of-effect anti-air unit. The anti-air issue was granted a hard fix with the Tempest, a new capital ship that deals--you guessed it--area-of-effect damage to air units (especially helpful for killing Zerg mutalisks wholesale) while also having a ground attack as well. This unit replaces the Carrier.

For harassment, the Protoss were granted the Oracle. This unit is "very worker-friendly" and doesn't hurt workers so much as annoy them. Using the Entomb ability it can temporarily block mineral fields from being harvested by placing a field around them. Its second ability, Preordain, grants vision of a targeted enemy building, allowing the Protoss to see which units or technologies are being researched. Finally, there's Phase Shift, which phases a target building, preventing it from being attacked, using its abilities, or granting technology. So just disable the anti-air structures and harass, harass, harass.

Their third and final new unit is the Replicant, which has one ability. It can transform into any non-massive unit. The huge downside is its cost, which is currently set at 200 minerals, 200 gas, and four population. However, you do receive all the upgrades the copied unit has as well. You can even copy enemy workers and construct your own enemy structures, although this ability may be removed before the final release.

At the end of the discussion, Browder dropped a rapid-fire series of additions to other units and structures in the game. Ghost's cloak ability is now a fixed cost for a fixed duration, thus requiring less babysitting from the player. Reapers now regenerate health when outside of combat, increasing their harassment potential. The radius of the Science Vessel's EMP ability has been reduced. Battlecruiser has a speed boost ability that functions on a cooldown to get it into combat faster. Banelings can move while burrowed. Hydralisk have a speed upgrade. Ultralisk has a new burrow charge ability that lets it move a short distance underground before bursting out and damaging nearby foes. Corrupter has a siphon ability that lets it attach to a building and harvest resources from it. Nexus has a defensive ability that basically turns buildings into photon cannons to defend against attacks. Nexus also gets a recall ability to bring units back to it; this will let Protoss players bail units out of bad fights and be more aggressive.

Did you catch all that? Keep in mind that these changes are a work in progress, and can change without notice. After a brief question and answer session the trio concluded the panel and thanked everyone for their attendance.

Quote: "We do take [the results] of every single major tournament very seriously."--David Kim, on analyzing unit balance in StarCraft II.

Takeaway: The developers on StarCraft II have a lot of ideas on how to make the game better, and they're not afraid to try them out. Some will work, others will flop, but the important thing is making the effort. For a game with a such a diverse audience, and a steady stream of updates and expansions, absolute balance is almost certainly out of the question. And that's what keeps things interesting.
