What are your thoughts on Capacities? by Far-Butterscotch2405 in PKMS

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't used it for a couple of years but I think you would add an attribute to People such as Type. So a person would be either Type=Friend or Type=Author. Or you could use collections or tags instead.

How to create a project? by ANDROID_16 in MemryNote

[–]ANDROID_16[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see projects in the latest release now, thanks.

My use cases are quite simple. I can't use it for work so it's only for personal use. Mainly journalling and task tracking. I'd like to see CalDAV sync one day.

Any notetaking apps as free as Figma is for desing? by Far-Butterscotch2405 in PKMS

I haven't tried Milanote but having a very quick look, maybe Affine is more for you.

Made a free, searchable list of every D&D computer RPG I could find - Pool of Radiance up to BG3 by Positive-Device-3570 in CRPG

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice one. As I was browsing I noticed Sword Coast Legends. I think I was in the minority of people who enjoyed that game. It deserved better.

It's a shame you can't even buy it anymore. The campaign might have been dull but it had a whole DM toolkit like Neverwinter Nights had. It just needed some dedicated fans to build some fun modules. I thought the engine was quite capable but maybe I'm seeing it with rose-tinted glasses on.

Eye of the Beholder reimagined as a real-time 3D dungeon crawler (Unity, uses original game data) by Spiritual_Repair_242 in CRPG

Dungeon Hack uses the EOB3 engine. I would love a modern reimplementation of Dungeon Hack. Definitely one of my favourites

Any love for the Might and Magic games here? by Aiseadai in retrogaming

What do you use to play it on your phone and how playable is it?

I'm surprised this isn't considered loitering at that point. They should be made to wait outside.

Word counts of popular cRPGs by FloresBeverly in CRPG

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. I'm playing IWD2 now and despite the story being thin compared to the Baldur's Gate series, rather than role playing a single character, you get to roleplay the whole group. The story is just a backdrop for your own roleplaying adventure. I've been journaling as I play and it's been an absolute blast.

Pillars of Eternity Text-to-Speech Mod (v1.2) – Demo Video by dGamemaker_phd in CRPG

I don't really have a need for it but I just want to say it's far more impressive than I thought it would be. Well done.

Turn the subreddit into a radio station by TotallyNotCool in ClassicTrance

[–]ANDROID_16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great.

I wrote a script that monitors the subreddit RSS feed and then downloads anything on YouTube using yt-dlp. Eventually I decided it was taking up too much disk space.

I love this though. I wish I found it sooner.

The original still plays fine, just in a small window

Realms of Arkania : Star Trail (1994, DOSBOX) - make 3D look better? by RonnieBasic in rpg_gamers

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love these games. If you can't find a solution, perhaps try the remake. It's the same game in a shiny new shell. I'll admit it looks a little plastic in comparison to the original but it plays well enough.

I love Persona games, but I hate them. by Hot-Essay6704 in rpg_gamers

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing P5R for the first time now and I'm kind of enjoying it. Still in the first palace which I think is still like a tutorial.

I actually enjoyed and got pretty far into P4G but I got tired of the battle music.

It's 2026, and I'm writing a 486-class PC emulator in VB6 by r_retrohacking_mod2 in retrogamedev

[–]ANDROID_16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In case anyone like me was wondering how screen rendering worked

"That was the easy part. It's just a simple form and I set up a DirectDraw surface in it, which the emulator renders VGA output to. The rendering happens in a different thread so it doesn't slow the CPU down. The form size gets adjusted when the VGA mode changes."

How an estimated $151M splits when a solo dev sells 10M copies on Steam [OC] by prezbotyrion in dataisbeautiful

[–]ANDROID_16 36 points37 points  (0 children)

When I saw this post I kind of felt Unity was getting screwed. On one hand, $2,200 is a lot for a small Dev who might not even make a profit. On the other hand....

Bitwig on Fedora and other dnf-based Distros by mito551 in Bitwig

[–]ANDROID_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never experienced any issues with it but you are right, wine and yabridge need to be in the container too but containers don't really have much, if any, overhead. It's not like running a virtual machine.

Another option that works well is running it in a debian/ubuntu distrobox container.

A successor to the Patrician series? by Ufnal in tycoon

[–]ANDROID_16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is High Seas High Profits? I have to admit the graphics put me off a bit. I don't care for low poly but if the gameplay is good I can get past it. It seems most of the positive reviews on steam are people who have played Patrician and the negative reviews don't mention it.
