Can the controller be updated without a PS5?

Yes, but mumble. Fuck that discord noise and back to the old ways.

Steam only works on steam while this allows full crossplay similar to Nakama or the Epic Online Services.

OpenSuse (back then the “normal” one, then Leap and now the rolling release Tumbleweed). It just works really well and keeps on trucking. Updated my old machine for ten years through all the openSuse releases without reinstalling. The repositories are very well kept in order and the build service easily provides anything I might find lacking.

Also, I quite like using Yast for system administration. There are many areas that I rarely touch and having a GUI available is super helpful.

Update: today I was able to update to kernel 6.7.5 and the issue disappeared for me.

Yup I’m hit by the exact same bug currently. But I was able to go back to before I updated with Snapper and now I’ll wait until the fix is in the Tumbleweed repos.

But other than that I’m much happier with the AMD than with my Nvidia (on Linux that is). VRR with Wayland on multiple monitors just works without issues. And before this week I never had any issues at all with the 7800XT.

Sniffing the fumes has become part of playing games on the deck.

I played that game on my m100, M125, Zire71 and on my final Palm device: the LiveDrive. That’s an awesome achievement and I congratulate you on your endurance. I think the only time I bought a wasp was by cheating (editing the save game, I think?). Man, all those names in your post really bring back old memories I thought forgotten - from an era of the internet long, long gone. Thank you. Wasn’t there a tribbles event in that game, too?

If I ever get to making my own space game I’ll surely put in some references to Space Trader. The only gaming achievment I had back then was a +800 winning streak in a freecell game but that got lost when my device died.

If you get access to the media files that the streaming service sends you without recording it yourself it’s WebDL. Could also be done by decrypting media you “downloaded” in their app to watch later.

WebRip is basically exactly that: capture audio/video during screening. WebDL is secret magic to tickle the streaming service for the files it sends to the browser during streaming.

Thanks for posting. Encountered this today and gave up after half an hour of fighting battlenet in lutris. Starting the game directly with wine worked well enough.

Dynamix’ Earthsiege was such a magical thing back then. So were Bullfrog’s Syndicate, Theme Hospital and Dungeon Keeper. Many, many years ago when Peter Molyneux was not a dumbass but gave us gems like Populous and Black&White.

The list of games that EA has destroyed is long.

Though be careful with this as the duplicated nodes will use shared instances of resources instead of instantiating their own. This can lead to unexpected behaviour if you don’t make resources unique after duplicating.

So why would one use this over Nakama?

This is a very common question, I’m sure you can find many articles or videos about “how do I start” when getting into game dev with an engine. As you already have a development background the best way for you is probably to “just build something” using the official documentation only. Pick a “small” game or project as a way to work with the engine and learn how things are done and how all the pieces interact with each other. The more you understand all the bits and pieces and how they are composed together to form a game the easier you will find it to plan and conceptualize your game.

Multiplayer is a super interesting topic, especially regarding these mysterious “game servers” or online services. I recommend Nakama as a FOSS example for one such service - which conveniently also has Godot support. The example project of theirs might also be a good starting point for you to see the engine at work.

Alternatively you can also use your backend experience to build the game services yourself - but that will distract you easily from working on the game itself.

The MSDF setting is a great find! I’m playing around with UI on mobile and combining the content scale factor with that setting for crisp fonts is super useful for that, thank you very much for publishing this. Your project is a great way to explore Godot’s capabilities regarding (non-game) UI and find out where the painful shortcomings lie.

Completely different scenarios but you don’t care, right?

Haha, “hey come walk into this super dense urban environment that we transformed into a fortress for guerilla warfare filled with traps! Fight us on our terms else you are cowards!”

The absolute dumb shit one can read on lemmy knows no bounds.

I have explained my issues in my other posts. Do you have a specific question?
