The Ration Seals function in Dead Space 3 is offline. The BENCH lets me pull up "downloadable content", but it's just the regular stuff. The Resources option is not available. Seeing as how it was working for the last few years, and it's probably a result of the recent merge of the various game management tools, are you going to be able to put it back in? Without it, the game gets a lot harder, especially since the best weapon components are only available through the Resources purchase option.
@K1tsudragon Moved over to the appropriate board for you. You might want to check out this thread, seems like it's relevant to your problem. Otherwise, hopefully someone on this board will be able to help you out.
I am considering to buy this game , but only if i am sure that i can still obtain the mk-v components by selling ration seals even after the end of the team who developed the game , so , can i still obtain mk-v components selling ration seals despite what happened to the developers of dead space ?
I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but the Ration Seals has been useless for quite some time now. Meaning a lot of items ( or at the very least drops) are now gone. Dead Space 3 is still a real good co-op experience, but Origin hasn't been working on the issue enough/cannot be bothered to fix it. What I recall is that system used to work on a third party server, and it used to have 4 different kinds of random loot boxes and they had different costs of rations seals (common, rare etc.). But with that server gone, they haven't bothered to fix it. It still works on XboX 360 though... Go figure. My question is why can't they simply craft a simple algorithm to have all the drops available again within the game? Is that too much to ask if you're gonna sell the game at it's normal price and without a warning that a feature is offline? Thanks EA, now I remember why this awesome franchise died.
Laminating two films using an adhesive is the most common method for assembling flexible packaging. This type of lamination uses two layers of film, foil, or paper. Adhesives options include solvent-based, solventless, solvent-free, and water-based.
Better Printing, Building Brands
Established in 1989, Prairie State Group (PSG) is a specialist in flexible packaging and pressure-sensitive labels. The company is headquartered in Franklin Park, IL with eight locations across the U.S.
PSG started in a 6,000 square foot workspace with eight employees producing pressure-sensitive labels for a variety of industries in Canada and the U.S. In 1999 it expanded its services to narrow web flexible packaging.
Today, the business operates in a 52,000 square foot facility with 90 employees. The company offers a variety of flexible packaging solutions and custom printed labels, with flexible packaging accounting for 75 percent of its total sales.
PSG uses both flexographic and digital printing technologies. In 2016 it started using digital for pressure-sensitive labels and then in 2017 for film. With short-run, no-minimum, digitally printed labels, clients can test market products without the inventory. Variable data technology offers the ability for multi-SKU or geo-specific graphics. Custom printed labels include food labels, stickers, and roll labels.
A variety of flexible packaging solutions are offered such as packaging for cannabis, meat and cheese, pet food, protein bars, and nutraceuticals such as stand up pouches and stick pack. For digitally printed flexible packaging, the shop utilizes the HP Inc. Indigo 20000 digital press.
The HP Indigo 20000 is a digital press for labels and packaging with a 30-inch web width. The device prints on substrates from 0.4- to ten-point thicknesses and produces up to 135 linear feet per minute in full color. According to John B. Reinhardt, marketing director, PSG, the HP Indigo 20000 digital press offers the most features and most traction in the industry.
Other presses include the 26-inch PCMC variable repeat gearless flexographic film press, 20.5-inch OMET Americas, Inc. Multiflex press, and ten-inch width Mark Andy Inc. 2200 press. PSG also employs a digital label press from Colordyne Technologies, LLC.
In flexible packaging, PSG primarily manufactures high barrier films for the food and nutraceutical markets, such as OPP films, EVOH, metallized PET, stick pack, and PEs. PSG produces HD flexographic plates in house using Esko technology.
Its finishing devices include a 36-inch Comexi offline laminator/gravure coater; slitter/rewinders from Dusenbery, Rotoflex, and Stanford; KTI high-speed turret rewinder, and a 26-inch JM Heaford plate mounter.
In 2018, an emerging chocolate brand approached PSG for cold seal packaging to be used for its upcoming rebrand. The client needed a cold seal solution that featured spot matte and spot gloss. It was also important that the spot coating feature release characteristics to ensure the adhesive would unwind smoothly without sticking.

Hello again fine people
Is it advisable to seal a PM project prior to base coat painting? We're having a bit of trouble with the paper strips lifting when we apply a base coat of latex outdoor flat paint. Even tried acrylics (stuff used for painting cermanics). Any suggestions on what is wrong or how to prevent the PM from lifting?
**edit**
Guess I should add that these are flour/water paste, with strips of craft paper over cardboard forms.
I don't like flour/water for strip PM for exactly this reason. I usually use white glue or wallpaper paste. The strips lay flatter and don't pull up as easily.
I always seal with generous coats of straight white glue or slightly diluted white glue anyway. This not only seals the piece but it makes it smoother by filling-in the imperfections in the surface. Plus you can sand it and prime it.
Darn!! Our paste is boiled but perhaps we're not boiling it enough?
We're trying not to use chemicals like glues if we can help it, but seeing how we don't have an all natural paint... *sigh*
Anyone have suggestions on flour/water mix that won't peel up? We've tried some of the recipes on this site, so far everything peels to some degree when base painted.
:shock: WOT are you doing? With flour, as long as the starch is released, it will be a strong glue. That only takes a moment at high heat.
Don't worry about the chemicals. Methylated hydroxide is produced from natural cellulose and is used in all sorts of products including foods and beauty treatments. PVA is non organic but, as far as I know, not dangerous in any way. I'm sure someone will let us know if it's not.
I have used latex (emulsion in UK) quite frequently and never had any peeling. (Scratches head in bewilderment . . . )

heh Not sure what we are doing wrong to get the peeling. We've a flour/water recipe (boiled) from this site.
We put it on lighter than we used to since it was warping (that usually, not always works).
Then we put a base paint on... latex exterior flat base. I tried using a gloss spray seal, and a matte. Tried using acrylic (for ceramics).
No matter how we do it the paper in spots will peel (always the edges).
*shrug* I've taken to base painting then sanding it down, then painting again which nearly always works. *bangs head on wall* Guess will have to try some glue in there. :?
heh The problem isn't lifting so much now as even the flattest item (dried) will warp and bubble and ripple when we try to base coat it. Or do anything to it. This happens with our newspaper and with our craft paper projects. Afraid to paint anything now.
I've tried a glue/water coating. Killz coating. A glossy spray varnish which when painted on, it ripples and bubbles too.
What the heck do people use to coat their projects with? I'm about to start running in circles here.
Out of curiosity has the paper you use for layering changed. I ran into problems with one form of newsprint (I found that different papers use different papermills and it really makes a difference). When I used the paper from our local free paper I ended up throwing out the finished items. The fibres where too loose to layer effectively without it tearing on application and the ink had so much oil in it that everything was grey and wouldn't dry properly.
May be it is not the glue but the density, stiffness, etc of the paper. Just a thought, hope it helps.

Success! I managed to get a layer that peeled - not that I wanted to, but it was interesting.
1 I was using a heavier paper, a thicker, brown wrapping paper. It is rather like what those in the US know as red rosin.
2 I used a fairly thick paste of just wallpaper paste, smeared on to the paper.
When the piece was dry, I realised that some edges had not fully adhered. After a light sponging with water, in no time I had peeled every one off. If I had applied a water based paint, or even another paper layer, they would have lifted or even fallen off.
So . . I reverted to my wallpaper paste (or CMC) and PVA mix and all is well.
