Even tho it’s loading almost 400 mods, more than Stoneblock 3, it takes barely a minute to launch, whereas SB3 used to take almost 10 minutes

Anyways off to sleep now, I wake up at 7 AM

[floral solstice]

Nice! I like that

I've been working on re-modding my characters

Dawntrail redid the Face Mesh/Skeleton so all the hair/makeup/face mods broke completely

and you can see the texture and jacket broke, so trying to fix that too

I think I've already shown you my vanilla glam, but in case I didn't

I never really dove into fashion until lately, so I'm pretty standard haha

[flat peak]

different gloves tho

I have different vanilla glams for different jobs but maybe one day I'll sync them all up idk

[floral solstice]

yeah, well I need to head to sleep, its 10am and i havent slept yet

I've been up all night looking at Skyra source lol

[flat peak]

ooofff

[floral solstice]

Thanks 🙏

welp this was an unfortunate spawn

[shut mauve]

Anyone having trouble claiming GOG codes from amazon prime gaming?

Edit: this got resolved next day

[shut mauve]

I'm gonna admit, the vibes induced by Portal (RTX) put me on defensive mode

I was legit creeping out at few levels. All of this enhanced by the fact that I was playing at night

[low wasp]

https://tenor.com/bUaOz.gif

[shut mauve]

I'm playing portal 2 now, and that has the creepiness toned down

[jagged roost]

If you were playing Portal for first time, it’s best to play without RTX, @shut mauve

[flat peak]

@floral solstice you may be interested in this, just finished it: https://github.com/favna/ffxiv-auto-screenshot-sorter

[floral solstice]

oh wow

thats nice

You could probably use Dalamud, turn that into a plugin and then be able to use Dalamud API to be able to sort by date, character, job, etc....

[flat peak]

dalamud means rewriting it to C# I think.. a language I dont really know

@wintry tiger @stoic laurel 👀 https://vxbsky.app/profile/oslypsis.bsky.social/post/3lcr265ak5k24

[jagged roost]

You do, you just don't wanna admit it

Reminder that TypeScript, your main language, is the bastard child of C# and JavaScript

[stoic laurel]

pretty

[jagged roost]

And that C# is basically Microsoft Java, a language you used a lot at work

[tough cedar]

And Minecraft Java is basically PHP, so might as well use that.

[stoic laurel]

ah yes, Minecraft Java

that bluesky post got you confused

[jagged roost]

Ackstually, Minecraft mods are pretty readable tbh

I still wanna make a Skyra lore Minecraft mod

[stoic laurel]

they have to be just to be able to play quite a few of the modpacks we play

[jagged roost]

At least Skyra's mod won't be a nightmare with +60 fluids

Like c'mon those are basically material disorders

I have 70 channels out of 200 just for IM

[flat peak]

reminder that TS isnt object oriented per se

[jagged roost]

And that matters how

[flat peak]

look at the code. there is no reason for that to be object oriented

[jagged roost]

C# uses classes, you used classes plenty of time

[flat peak]

irrelevant to this matter

[jagged roost]

Fuck's sake, the i18next plugin for Sapphire could have been functional like Skyra's, but it's a class

[flat peak]

And skyra's could be updated to i18next v24 instead of being stuck on 22

[jagged roost]

Aww

[stoic laurel]

What's that

[flat peak]

Wow we finally got a new trailer for Lost Soul Aside: https://youtube.com/watch?v=a3hVP2IEreI

this is that game that many many years ago garnered a lot of media popularity and was being worked on by a single developer who was inspired by Final Fantasy and Devil May Cry. He was then picked up by Sony and given a huge budget and team to continue development.

Now it's confirmed to finally be releasing in 2025 on PS5 and Windows

[candid kraken]

@flat peak you're as big of a fan of Far Cry as any (iirc)

I played all of them except 6 (heard it's trash and weak pc) and Primal

my question is

how's Primal? worth picking up?

[flat peak]

i never played primal

[candid kraken]

wrong guy to ask then

[flat peak]

I played 3, 3 blood dragon, 4, 5, 5 post nuke new world whatever it's called, and a little bit of 6

technically i finished 6 because I played the fake out ending

https://tenor.com/bmUHl.gif

[candid kraken]

1 and 2 are also great but the definitely differ from the rest

I can really recommend 2, tho

[stoic laurel]

I haven't played it but watched my brother play it a bit, it seems decent but doesn't seem too special to really differ from other Far Cry's. I prefer 3 and 5

[jagged roost]

I made an effort to remember 2… oh my god the malaria and the AK-47 getting stuck

Its recruiting system is pretty fun tho

[candid kraken]

I watched a playthrough back when it released, it's a FC game, sure, but at the same time it's not

weird to explain

[flat peak]

Real question is , when is Kyra going to play critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV with an expanded Free Trial which you can play through the entirety of A Realm Reborn and the award winning Heavens Ward and Stormblood expansions up to level 70 for free with no restrictions on playtime

even Tom Holland plays it https://youtu.be/Aqju18pcq6U

[jagged roost]

Never

[flat peak]

that's what I said before this year too so it's only a matter of time

[jagged roost]

Does that mean you’ll eventually watch 86?

[flat peak]

maybe

[stoic laurel]

Omg, it's a Christmas miracle

[flat peak]

a christmas miracle would be you and kyra playing critically acclaimed .. sorry ill stop

fwiw im not just making this up, it's actaully a real copypasta

[flat peak]

@candid kraken watching the aqua far cry 4 video. The section where he explains coop of outposts is so cool. I wish I could experience coop like that but I never have the friends / friends with time to do so

[candid kraken]

ikr 😭

[flat peak]

It's funny a third person could say "so Alex and favna why don't you two coop" and as much as I believe I think we theoretically could, I think commitment would be our biggest problem.

[stoic laurel]

[flat peak]

You're not wrong but FC4 is also 10 years old

That said, the solution is you guys should just play Ffxiv too

[stoic laurel]

Nah

[jagged roost]

Nuh uh

[jagged roost]

How about you watch/read 86

C’mon it’s the best of the best

[flat peak]

How about you try FFXIV as trade deal for me watching 86

[stoic laurel]

Too big of a trade deal

[flat peak]

Nuh uh.

If you both start you can still play together just like how you're playing Minecraft and whatnot together now

And unlike in Minecraft, you can actually have an eternal bonding / wedding ceremony between your characters in FFXIV

I was the backup photographer of an eternal bonding ceremony yesterday

[rugged tangle]

[tough cedar]

Got myself new switch controllers

[flat peak]

I dont see any controllers there?

I only see arthritis, clawing pain, and stick drift.

[candid kraken]

too busy trying to get her preganant, correct?

[jagged roost]

Indeed

[tough cedar]

Woke up with the wrong foot old man?

[jagged roost]

I’d say he’s always like that

[candid kraken]

and the irony is that he's the biggest nintendo fanboy in the server, he'd suck shigeru miyamoto's left nut if he could

[tough cedar]

Who knows when he woke up the last time

[flat peak]

If you don't recognise that the joycon are horrible then you either have tiny hands or your standards are way too low

[candid kraken]

1. i don't own a switch because it can be easily emulated on literally anything, including a steam deck.
2. nintendo fixed the drift in the OLED version (iirc), and for all you know those might be 3rd party, not nintendo

oh wait you're also talking about "usability"

well, it's not designed to game on it for 10 fucking hours a day, go touch some grass

[tough cedar]

It’s the OLED version indeed, but the controllers are original, not third party

And I use it to play fucking party games, not play a 40 hour story game in one session

[flat peak]

2. They didn't. The joycon in the oled are identical to the old ones.

[candid kraken]

well, anyway, other point still stands

go touch some grass instead of playing legend of zelda for more time in a day than other people work

[jagged roost]

go touch some grass instead of playing FFXIV for more time in a day than other people work* FTFY

[steady geyser]

if y'all are looking for a controller this one is perfect imo, it works with the switch as long as it's modded https://shop.8bitdo.com/products/8bitdo-ultimate-2c-wireless-controller?variant=44277753315505

they also released a bluetooth only version that works with vanilla switches

[candid kraken]

if y'all are looking for a controller
how do you read the conversation and deduce that

[steady geyser]

y'all were just talking about controllers 😭

complaining about stick drift

[candid kraken]

no one except favna complained about that

[flat peak]

And I do the same as Alex - emulate

Which means I use my Xbox controller

[steady geyser]

same thing

I also use it for emulators

I just brought it up since it’s hall effect

unlike any other 1st party controller afaik

[flat peak]

There's something to be said about the price compared to Xbox controllers but if my current one ever dies I'm probably getting an Xbox elite controller for the replaceable and longer stick options and back pedals.

[candid kraken]

i'll be honest I've had my Xbox controller for almost 6 years and it's not drifting... I'm not going to pay a premium for a NON FIRST PARTY controller just because it's hall effect

[flat peak]

I mean that controller is 27 buckerinos

[steady geyser]

wdym

[flat peak]

That's not premium

[steady geyser]

it’s cheaper than the official ones

[candid kraken]

it's premium in the land of 3rd party controllers

that's what i meant to say

[steady geyser]

a pair of joycons is like 70$

[candid kraken]

yea but that's first party, not third

[steady geyser]

an xbox controller is priced similarly

imo it was dirt cheap

[candid kraken]

once you go first party you don't go back. ever since I got my Xbox controller I literally can't stand using anything not first party, they don't feel good in the hand

[steady geyser]

once you try something other than joycons you’ll never want to go back to those tiny ahh hotdogs

[flat peak]

I have a single third party switch controller and as far as that goes I'd have to agree. That said, I've never held an 8bitdo so I'd be willing to give it a try, only I wouldn't be willing to pay for it even if I'd account for potentially returning it which is a hassle

[candid kraken]

sorry i'm not a nintendo cuck

[flat peak]

that was my whole point but I was getting mauled for it by Mr Alex aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

[candid kraken]

i mean, yea, sure, anything is better than joycons because they're bigger

[steady geyser]

https://youtu.be/3N5MlZg_Cdg?t=234

[candid kraken]

but the whole point of the joycons is GAMING ON THE FUCKING GO

you're not going to bring a whole ass controller with you alongside the switch in the bus

[steady geyser]

(the new one is at 5:07)

[flat peak]

That is true Alex

Though I know many many switch owners who use joycon docked too

Even without the cheap plastic housing

[candid kraken]

that's another topic

[steady geyser]

that's what I used to do before I got this one

[jagged roost]

This

[jagged roost]

Xbox 360 and Xbox SX controller owner here, nope, I’ll still use joycons

Not because they’re first party, but because it’s what’s readily available from my friends’ Switches and I prioritise having fun

You being so negative against the joycons honestly just tells that you guys have no friends

Which from what I know of you two, could and likely is true

[tough cedar]

I just wanted to show my gay joycons

[jagged roost]

The Switch is also a portable device, if you’re just going to dock it and play it with anything outside joycons, alone, at this point just play on a PC

In the flat, I used to play with the Switch with 3 friends, which required 2 pairs of Joycons (we have 2 Switches) and it’s just very fun playing Mario with it

[tough cedar]

thats all I do with the switch anyway

[rugged tangle]

Nah

The Switch Joycons are terrible to play with. The friends I have that I play Smash and other games with sometimes all bought pro controllers because they also agree that Joycons are just not fun to play with.

It's also dependant on the size of your hands, so if you got small hands then they probably work better for you vs me and my friends all have above average hands

[flat peak]

Kyra's confirmed hand size

[steady geyser]

joycons are even worse if you’re holding a single one with two hands

I only use them when I want to play games that require motion controls

[jagged roost]

One thumb for the joystick and the other for the two buttons, as well as each index for each trigger??

[steady geyser]

if I want to play anything else I always bring my 8bitdo and tell the others to get their controllers

[steady geyser]

they’re too damn small

[jagged roost]

No??

[steady geyser]

just try to play smash with them

[jagged roost]

Dude I’m 1.80 tall, I used to have hands that would easily cover your entire face

And yet I never had an issue with the joycons

[jagged roost]

Smash is the game I played the most on the Switch, obv with joycons

[steady geyser]

I’m 190 and I’ve got issues, even shorter people complain pretty often

which is why I’ve got a mod that allows my friends to bring their own controllers to make them compatible

https://github.com/ndeadly/MissionControl/

[flat peak]

to be fair the chance that the switch kyra plays on is moddable is relatively low

[rugged tangle]

Kyra, have you used a pro controller before for games like smash or ones that require precision for movement/button press at the same time?

Also, Joycons, if you use a single one you can't use right thumb stick to basic attack, BECAUSE IT DOESNT EXIST. Which is like required to be even remotely good at Smash

[flat peak]

she said she played "mario" and from the context I deduce with muitiple friends so im gonna say either mario kart or mario party and in both cases 1 joycon does suffice

but by god if it's mario kart and she played with steer assist or god forbid motion driving

she'd be no better than the colleagues or previously co-student that never play videogames and dont know how to differentiate A from B

-# ironically those were statistically mostly girls and mostly they were only attending because their boyfriends dragged them along

[rugged tangle]

If that's the case then yeah Joycons suffice fine, but other, more competitive games yeah their trash

[flat peak]

I cant play MK8 without pro controller either tbh

but when you consider I used to be a competitive karter on the WiiU version that shouldnt be a big surprise

[rugged tangle]

True, personally, I refuse to play anything with a Joycon for consistency

[jagged roost]

Super Mario Bros Wonder, but also played Mario Party and Mario Kart, although I suck in the last one. I don’t play with assists tho

[jagged roost]

No, I have played it with both joycons connected to the screen a while ago, and yes, some movements are hard to pull off (but not impossible). Still, my flatmates would also play with a single joycon so I’d say it was pretty levelled. Nevertheless we don’t compete for skill, we play for fun

I’m far more used to playing Smash with my Wii controller + joystick tho

[jagged roost]

I can’t afford that, with 5 flatmates + invited people, if you refuse to play because that, you would just not play at all and miss the fun of playing with friends, that’s why I don’t care about the controller on the Switch

If I was to be picky regarding the controllers, I would refuse to play on my flatmates’ PS5, because how uncomfortable PlayStation controllers are for me

it's a joke on how AC ubisoft games are shit from conception to end smh

[jagged roost]

Shhh, you'll trigger his AC fan heart

tbh I like to have both, as in, AC/DC

[shut mauve]

Ubisoft of pre-AC: Black Flag (including Ubisoft of AC: Black flag) was good (atleast)

Now I can't say if this is their redemption arc or something else 😬

On a side note, I regret buying The Division. Hardly played 30 mins and 2 months after it was on a giveaway

[flat peak]

black flag wasnt even all that good. It's way overhyped.

There were loads and loads of bugs that people seem to rose coloured glasses forget for one

A big mode of the game was locked behind online play

The story was a clusterfuck of introducing random new characters completely out of nothing

Edward Kenway is actually a self centererd careless dick 90% of the gam

I really dislike it when people praise BF because it really wasn't all that good when you look a bit deeper than the surface level of "haha ship go boom boom"

[tough cedar]

Ship go boom boom was awesome though

So BF good

[flat peak]

by that metric Rogue was also good but no one seems to ever talk about Rogue

yet IMHO they really refined and fine tuned ship combat in Rogue and the ship arsanal is much more fun to play with

not to mention that rear target isn't super hamstrung in Rogue

[tough cedar]

Haven’t played rogue

[candid kraken]

black flag is by far my favorite AC game, although I didn't play any of the new ones.

I only watched gameplay of them so I can't comment on them

[stoic laurel]

Black Flag is also my favorite. I don't think the others I've played are exactly bad, but like- the only really new one I've played was Valhalla and I got a bit bored

[candid kraken]

too much content with no clear goal in mind truly will be the death of modern gaming.

why? it's goated fr fr

[jagged roost]

Gridless building and less arcade graphics

They made it more realistic than aoe2 and that’s precisely why I don’t like it

[rugged tangle]

Alex is an aoe lover???

[candid kraken]

I wouldn't say lover, I don't play it, but I did play it a bunch when I was a kid!

[rugged tangle]

Gotcha, did you play any of the other versions or just 3?

[candid kraken]

it was ages ago so I'll be honest I don't remember much of the games but I also played 2

[rugged tangle]

Gotcha, I grew up on the Age of Empires: Rome Expansion and then later on got into Age of Empires 3 when the first stopped working on Windows 10 and then eventually found out there was a bunch of definitive editions and grinded the crap out of those.

I got over 500 hours on the 3rd one rn on steam 😂

But it's sad, seems like the game is eol now since they announced a dlc a year ago and now said it's cancelled and haven't given us any significant updates between 🫤

It sucks because it's all about money because obviously the money they would put into the DLC wouldn't be profitable for them

Since tbh 3 is one of the least popular of aoe

[flat peak]

they should bring back Empire Earth tbh

[jagged roost]

So true

[rugged tangle]

Yes

I would love Empire Earth so much

[deep onyx]

Hi @steady geyser I was asking about emulating Switch in another server and dixie told me to ask you, I wanna try out Zelda

Is it any good or it's better to get a cheap Switch Lite

[steady geyser]

I've always had a very meh experience emulating zelda

[deep onyx]

Oh, damn

[steady geyser]

well you could try to follow some guides to get it optimized

I've been getting around 20fps without changing any settings

[pulsar roost]

Wow that is unplayable

[deep onyx]

Yeah, that's pretty bad but I'll try, thank you

[rugged tangle]

What emulator are you using?

I've been using Ryujinx for a bunch of Switch games, except Zelda and they all seem to run fine except a couple hitches in specific games on occasion.

Also, what specs is the PC your running it on?

[deep onyx]

Just started trying Ryujinx, getting 30 FPS without any issues so far, thank you

[pulsar roost]

30fps is what the switch can do so sounds about right

[deep onyx]

Yep

[candid kraken]

that still not a win for emulation, though!! it still has to come a long way since the switch uses 10 year old mobile hardware, after all.

[pulsar roost]

Because emulation isn’t easy 💔 generations are gonna come and it’s probably going to get progressively worse until it’s not going to be viable at all besides for older consoles

It also heavily depends on how they were built

e.g. the Switch having a proprietary microkernel architecture

While the Wii was a very simple PPC

[candid kraken]

yea yea I know

[pulsar roost]

It’s okay baby I need to autismo rant either way

[candid kraken]

look at PS4 emulation, it's still a long way from being able to actually have playable games at playable FPS

[deep onyx]

I don't know much about Switch but is Switch 2 gonna be 60 FPS?

[candid kraken]

there are some games on the Switch 1 that are 60FPS

we'll have to see what hardware it will ship with

a lot of games are limited to 30FPS on the Switch because otherwise they would stutter

[deep onyx]

Oh

[deep onyx]

I wanna try Bloodborne as well, is PS4 emulation good enough that I can play it without any issues?

[pulsar roost]

The PS4 is multitudes more complex than the Switch

[pulsar roost]

You can play it well if you get the proper PC patches

You will find videos on YouTube about it

[deep onyx]

Neat, thank you

[candid kraken]

a new version of shadps4 released just 2 days ago so idk what the performance is like rn but yes bloodborne is one of the few games that's plays nicely

oh cool someone made a comparison video, https://youtu.be/7dmf0--KG9k

performance only improved slightly

but every slight improvement is a huge milestone in the emulation community!

[deep onyx]

So true

Installed ShadPS4, time to obtain Bloodborne in a very legal way

[pulsar roost]

reddit

bloodborne ps4 pkg

[deep onyx]

[rugged tangle]

they have guides too that show the best settings for each game to get best performance

[deep onyx]

Seems like for BoTW, Cemu is the way, and you can go up to 144 hz without any issues

[rugged tangle]

Yeah, I seem to get above 60fps on all the games I played except sometimes I'll run into hitches when loading assets.

Anyone tried AC Shadows yet?

[flat peak]

Nope but from the reviews I watched (That Boy Aqua and Gameranx) it seems it's okay 7-8/10 area. If you expect something like Mirage, it aint it. It's still a Ubisoft open world and it shows, but that's either for better or worse depending on how you think about that.

I do intend to eventually buy it but truth be told I wouldn't play it right now anyway because I'm so invested in FF14. I'll just buy it when I'm hitting the content drought in that game, which might be at least a year from now.

[tough cedar]

I have it pre-loaded so I'm gonna play it later

so yeah basically xbox + steam

[valid venture]

ye

[valid venture]

unless you referred to the next xbox OS, no. It's not Windows https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_system_software

kernel and other stuff is different, despite it being "similar"

[pulsar roost]

Did you read the page

It literally says it’s just a modified version of Windows that is highly compatible with desktop Windows

😭

[valid venture]

newer yeah..

theyre working towards windows

it wasnt 2 years ago

[candid kraken]

kernel is the same, it's been known for a long time that Xbox's OS is just a locked down, modified Windows version

which is why Xbox "exclusives" run the same on PC

[valid venture]

could that mean i could just upgrade the internal stuff on my xbox to make it run faster

if its.. in terms of software the same to windows

[candid kraken]

software updates aren't usually known for making things run faster lol

[valid venture]

No like, hardware

Idk if Microsoft locked these things down

[candid kraken]

no, you can't

it might be running windows, but it's heavily modified and locked down

first of all, you wouldn't have drivers for anything other than what the Xbox came with

[stoic laurel]

So would this just be, "what if Steam Deck, but Windows"

[valid venture]

Oh alr

Guess no 2tb xbox for me

[candid kraken]

out of all the things you can change out on a console, the drive is one of them

it's not as easy as doing it on a PC but as long as you closely follow a tutorial you can't fail

[valid venture]

Oh nice

[candid kraken]

@flat peak @stoic laurel this is what asmongold would say trust

[stoic laurel]

so true

racists on there way to say there were no black samurais so therefore assassin's creed shadows is a disgrace to historical accuracy (let's ignore the fact that you're an assassin that fights certain big figures that obviously has no historical accuracy but those are fine cause it's a video game and so inaccuracies have to exist for those parts for the game to be good!)

[flat peak]

I feel this so much

[tough cedar]

after a few hours AC Shadows, I can confirm
good game imo

[flat peak]

Awesome.

I wish I could remote into my desktop but I keep forgetting to set it up

[flat peak]

fair point

[steady geyser]

lmao I’m stressing my ipad so much that it’s actively losing charge even if it’s plugged in

I needed to get some extra xp while afk so I ran two fortnite instances, the one on the bottom left is running on the ipad and the one on the top right is streaming from amazon luna

[stoic laurel]

I didn't even know Fortnite would allow you to run 2 instances of your game

also, good lord, bottom left is so ass. low graphic fortnite is so icky

[steady geyser]

well it doesn't, it's only possible because the other one is being streamed from amazon

[steady geyser]

welp when you're gaming on mobile you gotta choose between having good graphics at 60fps with some latency or having shit graphics at 30-60fps with no latency

although the latency is technically the same, if you stream the game you'll get system lag while if you play on the ipad itself you'll get network lag

(this is because if you play on amazon's server you'll automatically get 0 network ping)

the datacentre is probably the same as fortnite

imagine how cool it would be if it was like a wii u but in reverse, where the console streams to the dock so you can use it as a second screen

im a bit short on money due to japan vacation

so ill just buy it later

probably alongside Pokemon Legends ZA

but Donkey Kong, Mario Party 9, Hyrule Warriors and other games look really cool

it wouldn't really make sense for me if I can't pirate games

do you think we will get gta 6 on switch 2

considering that they got gta 5 to run on the original switch we might get a 480p 15fps version

why wouldn't that reuse it?

[steady geyser]

because I was expecting a decent home menu 😭

just take a look at the 3ds or the wii u, these things were perfect

the switch has no personality whatsoever, the eshop doesn’t even have a soundtrack

this was peak https://navi.mrcube.dev/share/fZA4mB57y3

making storefronts friendly encourages purchases

I should play some actual persona though

I've heard so much about the games but never touched them

[pulsar roost]

nahh get the persona 3 ost

persona 5 good too

4 a bit less

[pulsar roost]

They’re goated but it also depends on whether you’d enjoy a grindy turn-based RPG with dungeon scrolling and social simulation

Metaphor ReFantazio is the modern Persona and Megaten fusion by Atlus tho, you might want to play that, heard they fused the best part of both series (I personally preferred Megaten more so that was interesting )

[steady geyser]

i have one but its way too loud

it spits out a noise of like 89db and my window aint made to have 0 air "leaking" through the sides when throwing in a tube 😦

so cooling technically wont even work i guess

guess ill just put a fan under my window at floor level, blow it towards my pc to keep the warm air away from me? idk man

[low wasp]

this does nothing lmao

[valid venture]

i guess i could say air does cool as the other side of my room is cold af (theres this internal air-control thingy with a tiny round vent near my bedroom to bathroom door)

its just, the lung killing air from my pc has to go to there, and so far it hasnt gone that way

@steady geyser modding 3DS games is actually pretty easy

HackingToolkit9DS handles all the extracting itself

I modded SMT IV to have an aligment dialogue cheatsheet so I can do the true neutral path more easily

https://gamebanana.com/mods/459340

[steady geyser]

never heard of that game but GGs

[pulsar roost]

it's the predecessor of Persona

And one of the best 3DS games ever released

I also added the patch to remove the English dub (yuck) and upscaled textures lol

[steady geyser]

now that I think of it I’ve never tried the new emulator

this one should replace citra and lime https://azahar-emu.org/

well the main devs are the same anyways

omg

[pulsar roost]

I just play on my DS

Rocks

[steady geyser]

yeah I wish I still had mine

aaaand just like that my entire collection is gone

time to redownload everything

or decrypt it if there's a way

nvm they were already decrypted and I'm an idiot

just had to change the extension

[flat peak]

spin off more like. SMT and Persona are set in the same universe and kinda go alongside each other. SMT 5 released just last year.

[pulsar roost]

Yeah forgor the proper word lol

@steady geyser nixos improvisation works

I really didn't wanna make a Windows VM but it ended up being pretty easy to solve

steam-run for dynamically linked executables (abusing steam pre-existing FHS environment lol) + just nix-shell -p wine for the rest, which worked wonderfully

for anyone else: just use nsui lol (yes it works perfectly fine for extracting and rebuilding cias no need for the deprecated htk9ds)

[pulsar roost]

@steady geyser ok I was stupid

It’s 100x easier to just copy the romfs into the LayeredFS thingie

Luma patches the game for you

[steady geyser]

oh yeah that's also how it works on emulators

except for ctgp7, that one is just special

[pulsar roost]

I was just stupid tbh

I knew about LayeredFS it just didn’t click

[candid kraken]

remember, even alcatraz had prisonbreaks. nothing is nor ever will be fully secure. it might take a week, it might take a year, hell, it might even take a decade, but it will be cracked at some point

toyota corolla

ive been thinking more about cars since ill actually have to purchase one at some point once i get a licence

[steady geyser]

well I'm sure that it'll be cracked, the question is how will they do it

cos hacking a modern switch requires soldering n shit

[pulsar roost]

oh it’s not thenother server

oops

[steady geyser]

although I wouldn't be surprised if modchips for the switch 2 end up costing less than the msrp of mario kart world

[low wasp]

if it becomes moddable it becomes a fantastic proposition for a portable games console that simplpy works with great games actually made for it

https://www.rxddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/1jta2a5/nintendo_switch_2_pricing_thread/

I might end up not getting it tbh

only chance of me getting it is if I manage to find one with stock firmware in august, as long as the US pricing doesn't change due to tariffs

[paper dome]

there’s a pretty good chance that price will change

[candid kraken]

lit costs almost the same in EU, why would you get it in the US

[steady geyser]

I wouldn’t call a ~57€ difference “almost the same”

[candid kraken]

you'd still have to smuggle it here, lol

if you really want a price difference go to japan to buy it

[steady geyser]

ehh I’d only need to take it out of the box

and no I wouldn’t go to japan just to buy a switch, I’m thinking of getting it in the US cos I’m going there anyways so it’s basically a free discount

[candid kraken]

I’m going there anyways
we'll have to see about that, the trump administration is retroactively denying visa's left and right

[steady geyser]

yo @stoic laurel the new ballistic season has dropped

[stoic laurel]

Oh? New map or anything?

[steady geyser]

yeah there’s a separate game mode to test the new maps

they also added a molotov

and two new guns

oh yeah and the ranks reset :(

[stoic laurel]

That means we'll be heavily kicking ass for a while

[steady geyser]

hell yes

lmk when you’re up to play

[stoic laurel]

I'll probably be available a little later, just got out from watching The Minecraft Movie

[steady geyser]

I hope that you didn’t get a popcorn shower when the chicken jockey scene played

[stoic laurel]

I didn't, was at the top row
But nobody really reacted to it much other than my friends and I

[steady geyser]

the return of the miku

[steady geyser]

ouch

also said console shipped with both ar games and face raiders

meanwhile you’ve got to pay 10$ for the tutorial game on the switch 2

[low wasp]

piracy is completely and entirely justified

[steady geyser]

yep I’m gonna go broke

[steady geyser]

@stoic laurel I’m currently experiencing a severe withdrawal of kicking ass

The fact that Denmark, Finland, Germany, The Netherlands, and Poland are the only countries that passed the threshold really says a lot about their respective populations I think.

[valid venture]

too bad we're half a million short on votes until 31/07/2025 to get the request through to the comission

@stoic laurel this guy just scored a 20 kill game 😭

[stoic laurel]

too cracked

[steady geyser]

just found my first ever xp exploit on my own... by complete accident https://zip.mrcube.dev/go/DaGYgU

[stoic laurel]

💀

Are you able to repeat it?

[steady geyser]

I haven't tried

well if you need xp there are far better ways

for example, joining lego fortnite and spamming the right trigger with an auto turbo controller is the best afk method

you can also subscribe to channels like this one with your notifications on and try the maps as soon as they're uploaded https://www.youtube.com/@FortniteTikToks38

(results may vary but I'd still reccomend this)

btw I thought my levels were reset for bug abusing but it was just a bug

[flat haven]

My heart goes out to you

[steady geyser]

I am not cracked enough to get 20 :(

istg this game should've given me [phone]%, I was tryharding so fucking hard to compoensate for the aliexpress teammates

I was getting bad framerate in towns in Final Fantasy 14, even if there were no other players around, and I had no idea why (though probably some of my mods).. then I found out I could still enable AMD Fluid Motion Frames in the overlay and now all my problems are solved. God bless FMF.
