For some reason I can't seem to find a decent list of 4x4 speed algorithms. Does anyone know of a good list that includes pictures and is not in a video?

For which method.

 

[SirWaffle]

I started off using THIS method and but I am unsure what speed method to really use from the lack of finding a complete/decent list.

Is there a way to prevent the center caps of a Master Kilominx from popping off? They pop like there's no tomorrow and I do not like that. Also, it keeps on locking up. I tried tensioning it and lubricating it, still, it keeps on doing so. The combination of the two ruins my solves drastically. If anyone knows a way to prevent such please do tell me. Thanks.

glue?

Please tell me you are trolling. You do realize that if I do so, I would be having a heck of a time disassembling my puzzle if need be?

no. a master kilominx doesn't even have centers.

How would you generate OELL/OCLL pics on VisualCube? Also, what do people use to generate Pyraminx diagrams?

I did trim down the edges of those caps a bit, since it's them catching onto each other that mostly makes them pop.
The lockup part could probably be fixed by rounding off edges and corners, perhaps internal mech needs some rounding too it's a whole lot of pieces I tell you, so you'll have some work in front of you if you're going to do it; I keep it the way it is and hope breaking in will make it a tad bit better.

Will rounding the corners on my mf8 v1 sq-1 make it pop? Does it make a notable difference?

I just learned 32223 edge pairing, and I just don't know exactly what to do when I get the case where two edges contain both parts of each edge (so one edge had the blue-orange and yellow-green dedges, and the other one has the green-yellow and orange-blue dedges).
When I come across this during the 2 pairing part, what do I do?

You'll find that case here:

Rounding the external pieces? Well, of course not.

Why does my OLL Lucasparity (the one with rU2 x etc.) not work for me edgepairing parity ? My old algorithm worked

What's edge pairing parity?

 

[FinnGamer]

What's edge pairing parity?

I mean a single edge flip

it doesn't work because either you're doing it wrong or it doesn't work.

you don't need to put a space before a question mark.

Oh on 5x5.
You have to modify it a bit from 4x4 to 5x5
On the l U2 r' part, you have to take the M slice on the r', so it becomes 3R' and then it should work

Nono, I mean round the internals of the corners, so they stick into the centers as much as the edges?

3r'
In SiGN notation, 3r' = block, 3R' = slice

Are you guys ever like, Oh imma do 3x3 OH and imma do 2x2 aswelll, oh and ill 4x4 and 5x5 and why not try 3x3 BLD, wait imma practice 3x3 while im at it.
And in the end, you dont do anything and dont progress in anything?

Yeah thats what im going through. i wanna get good at sooo manny things, but i cant seem to stick with 1 event and practice that. What should i do?
