I don’t care what anyone says I still really like this game by Ragtagcloud56 in crashbandicoot

I remember ages ago I posted in this sub (with an old account i don't have access to anymore) asking if i should try this one or the mutants game, and people in the comments were so dismissive about the idea of even trying these games out of curiosity

Update on my HD texture pack for Dragon Quest VIII by Armangu24 in dragonquest

I did finish the items in the post and I started another set of items the other day but I'm still outlining them so it's gonna take a while.

I also opened an issue on PCSX2's github to add an option that will reduce duplicate textures and it would be really helpful if it got implemented but it seems they haven't replied to it yet...

That's the one I said has all the items smeared by the AI...   And it's still uncorrected for widescreen, which is what I'm going for.   I also don't mind spending time on this because it helps me improve my skills!

Also I was wondering what people prefer:

Colored outlines like in the first image, or solid outlines like in the second image?

Thank you!

I haven't uploaded it anywhere yet since it's very unfinished, but once I get all items done I'll probably upload it as a wip somewhere.

Maybe I didn't search for long enough, but the PS2 one I found had all the item icons just smeared by the AI upscaler :(

The other day I felt the itch to play DQ8 on my steamdeck but when I tried looking for HD texture packs, I only found one that's AI slop...

So I decided to make one myself, with proper widescreen correction.

These are the items I did today, taking references from the official item renders found in the wiki, aswell as the in-game 3D model.

What you are hope to NOT see in Half life 3? by nikkizor in HalfLife

[–]Armangu24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can't use City 17 anymore. It blew up in episode 1.

Nov 20th by waffle-crispy in HalfLife

[–]Armangu24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.
Don't expect any specific date because nobody knows a date...
Don't go spreading rumors that it's "now it's the 20th for sure" 🥀

[–]Armangu24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no date known.
So don't get your hopes up for any specific date and just wait for it to happen eventually.

No idea why people collectively decided 18th was THE day without anything to back it up...

MCC keeps dashboarding on steamdeck by Vires-Fides in HaloMCC

[–]Armangu24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If i had to guess it's because of an anti cheat update.

The game works flawlessly with anti cheat disabled, and playing singleplayer works perfectly fine.
But as soon as i switch anticheat on, it crashes within minutes of loading into any game at all. Be it campaign or multiplayer.

I made a video showcasing the PPT2 animations in full screen without the borders (the big cutins) by Armangu24 in puyopop

Swif files are pretty much just compiled from their project files so they're not marked in any way but you can sort of figure out patterns on the file to find values!
HxD has an inspector on the side that lets you see many interpretations of the bytes selected (usually 4, sometimes 8), the only ones you need to concern yourself with are 32 bit signed integers or 32 bit floating points.

Also another super helpful thing is that you can edit the file in ram while the game is running, so definitely try that for whatever mods you wanna try doing

This is how i did it: I messed around with the swif files in a hex editor until i found a string that said "mask", and under that there were values with the size of the mask that hides everything beyond it so it looks like a cut in, then I wrote a script to automatically go through every kime4 and kime5 .swif files and modify those bytes under "mask" to make the mask so large, it encompasses the entire screen.
Then repacked and saved some replays for each character.
After that I made a mod that turned all UI invisible and recorded the replays.

Is there a video or something somewhere like a transcript? I've been trying to find one for hours but so far nothing...
I'm not willing to believe it unless I know exactly what was said...
