Well folks - I was finally able to complete the Rust Puzzle !! The issue was that I had too many "saves" in the game which prevented me from starting over from a saved game. I must thank Marian for the contact provided in this post... my saved game dilemma was cleared and I was able to move on !!

That was the issue, oldbroad ! It seems the game has a Saved Game Limit - 40 slots. If you have an issue with saves, just open the file the saves are in and delete a bunch of the older ones. I copied them into a "backup" folder I created - just in case something goes wrong.

So...... it is onward we go !

This appears to be the source of a lot of scarily good syuff around at the moment including some I posted previously...

AI Overview
Suno v5, released in late 2025, is a major update to the AI music generation platform that focuses on higher-fidelity audio, more authentic vocals, improved genre understanding, and enhanced creative control
. It is considered one of the most advanced AI music models, capable of producing studio-quality tracks with better instrument separation for editing.
Here are the key aspects of the Suno v5 release and its relationship with audio workstations like Cakewalk:
Suno v5 Key Features & Improvements

Audio Fidelity: Version 5 provides clearer, more immersive audio and natural vocals. It handles complex instrumentation, such as percussive slap bass, much better than previous versions.
Stem Separation: A major addition in v5 is the ability to export individual instrument tracks (stems) and MIDI files. This allows for detailed editing, mixing, and remixing in traditional Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs).
Creative Control: Users can now refine their AI-generated music more effectively, including the ability to remaster older tracks with the new model.
"Suno Studio": Suno is now being described as a browser-based, AI-powered DAW, allowing users to generate, edit, and arrange music without needing separate, complex software.

Integrating Suno v5 with Cakewalk
While Suno v5 can generate nearly finished songs, it is frequently used to create raw material for professional post-production in traditional DAWs like Cakewalk by BandLab or Cakewalk Sonar.

Workflow: Users generate a base song in Suno, download the WAV files and exported stems (stems are crucial for individual mixing), and import them into Cakewalk for advanced processing.
Mixing & Mastering: While Suno stems are sometimes described as having a "metallic" or "shimmer" artifact, they can be polished in Cakewalk by using tools like EQ, compression, and third-party plugins.
AudioSnap: Cakewalk’s "AudioSnap" feature can be used to further refine the timing of the AI-generated stems, snapping them to a strict grid for better rhythmic accuracy.

Performance & Limitations

Improved Quality: While some users noted that v5 still carries slight metallic artifacts, the leap in quality is significant.
Prompting: Version 5 follows prompts much better, though it can still struggle with maintaining consistency in long, complex, or ambient tracks, sometimes losing the original theme.
Stem Quality: Although the stem separation is better than before, some engineers still find the isolated stems to be challenging to master due to some instrument bleed.

In summary, Suno v5 has significantly elevated the quality of AI music generation, acting both as a standalone "AI DAW" and as a powerful, high-quality input source for traditional, comprehensive audio production environments like Cakewalk.

I think I saw this mentioned recently on another website; it could very well be true.

Thanks for this.

LadyK I really love the world created in The Tainted Cup, and the writing style (with some great humour): immersive stuff!

I started the God of the Woods, but it failed to grab me: perhaps I should have persevered...

I must try the Bobiverse (new to me).
