[FIX] Unity3D Cloud Build Missing Sprites
I was making a build the other day using Cloud Build, but some of the sprites were missing for some reason. Everything looked fine on a local build though.
Turns out I had the sprites in a folder called "Library" in my Unity Project and Cloud Build ignores or strips out content from that folder. The sprites showed up again in the cloud build after renaming the folder.
[FIX] AoE II HD Won't Start
Age of Empires 2 HD won't launch through Steam? Stuck in the infinite launcher-loop? Try closing Steam and delete the "appcache" folder in your Steam folder. Restart Steam and play AoE2!

[FIX] Unity3D Black Screen on iOS Devices
We were trying to run a build of Puzzle Football on iPad yesterday to see how the game would look from an iPhone5 aspect ratio (16:9) to an iPad aspect ratio (4:3). But when we tried to run it the screen goes black. The game launches and the buttons were working so the game wasn't stuck. The weird thing was that it runs fine on the iPad2, but it shows a black screen on the iPad Mini.
I found a fix on the Unity forum which mentions changing the Clear Flags property on the Camera object by setting it to "Solid Color" (it was on "Don't Clear" before). Not sure why it needs to be on Solid Color, but it's working now! No more black screen on the iPad Mini!

[FIX] Bioshock: Infinite - Audio Crackling
I had this weird issue with the game when the audio suddenly starts crackling / lagging, especially when I'm playing Voxophones. It's super annoying and kind of an experience-killer. Anyway, after long searches on the internet, I found this solution:
Set compatibility mode to Windows Vista SP2.
1. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\BioShock Infinite\Binaries\Win32
2. Right-click on the BioShockInfinite.exe and select Properties.
3. Go to Compatibility tab and select Windows Vista SP2.
Also, don't forget to upgrade your graphics card to the newest driver.
Diablo 3 Item Hotlinking Bug
Hotlinking items (shift+left click) seems to be buggy with the latest 1.0.2c patch. It happens most commonly with socket items; in this case my socket amulet, and spits out a long string of text instead of the item hotlink.
|HItem:2,1682228620:1163431018:1614845895,128602208,-612770703,-791891826:-1:1:213615:8:6:9:442:442:0:0:6:1:2,2058771893:166283892::-1:0:-1:-1:-1:9:0:0:1:0:1:0:-1992524624:|h[Honor Secret]|h
It doesn't crash the game or anything and the item works fine if you equip it, you just can't link some socket items to your friends. Hopefully Blizzard will fix this in the upcoming patch.
