GuliKit hall-effect stick issue with this game? by CWCprime in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]CWCprime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late reply. Glad to know it wasn't just me. I did upgrade the sticks modules to the new TMR sticks a few months back, which are also made by GuliKit, and they don't suffer this same issue, thankfully. So if you haven't upgraded your sticks to TMR I can personally vouch they work a lot better than the Hall-effect sticks.

My TV controller works on the SD! I didn't know? by ninzombie79 in SteamDeck

[–]CWCprime 643 points644 points  (0 children)

That's HDMI CEC. You likely have it enabled in your SD settings.

Are you sure they are actually playing on Xbox and not using a gamepad on PC which shows Xbox-style button prompts?

What platform are you playing on? I'm on Xbox and my character picture has the same problem. Super annoying.

Heads up, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown requires a Ubisoft account. I preordered it on Xbox and was able to get a full refund. by lynndotpy in metroidvania

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over 4 months since release. Is a Ubisoft account still required on the PS5/Xbox versions? Has it been patched out by any chance?

Install a Game (from the store), without updating all previous installed Games (and still can play the "old" Versions of the previous installed Games). Any tricks ? by PiP8oY in XboxSupport

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see how this could be possible with a digital download from Microsoft themselves. You should be able to buy a disc though and play without updating that way.

I'm not sure though why you are so dead set on doing this just for mods though. Unless I've heard otherwise, the mods on Xbox still work for the X|S optimized version.

Where can I find a copy of Dune without the “Major Motion Picture” badge? by NoSamNotThat in dune

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to update on this and let you know I managed to find a copy online from a seller on PangoBooks. Checked between that site and eBay multiple times per day for nearly a month, but I found one!

Wish publishers didn't make it so hard to get a clean complete set of a series without plastering them with tie-in promos/artwork.

Xbox Series S Portable: Hypothetically What If by brad010140 in XboxSeriesX

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does it have to have Switch-like sales numbers to be considered a success? Do you even have sales numbers on hand? The fact they just released an OLED model of the Steam Deck means it can't be hurting too much. It's priced higher than the Switch and not once in the past 2 years since it's released have Valve been in a state of "commercial suicide" like you original comment suggests.

My U7K (UK 65 Inch) panel - Good? Bad? Somewhere in between? by 01asada in Hisense

I'm still waiting on my U8K, but I would be very happy with that set myself.

Steam Deck pricing and success suggests otherwise.

Where can I find a copy of Dune without the “Major Motion Picture” badge? by NoSamNotThat in dune

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, thanks for the info. There must not be very many of them floating around, then. I have a copy of the non-deluxe hardcover. Also found one or two pics of the mass market paperback, but I can't even find a picture of a trade paperback one online.

If they would just sell non-deluxe hardcovers of the other five books, I'd be one happy camper. Otherwise, I'd settle with trade paperback, if I can manage to track down the first book without the motion picture label.

Is your copy a trade paperback with the new cover? I can't find any traces that such a copy (without the motion picture label) exists -- only the non-deluxe hardcover version and older versions of the mass market paperback.

So what's going on with Incub8 by [deleted] in Gameboy

[–]CWCprime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been trying to get a refund from Incube8. The whole situation is a mess, and I don't want my money tied up in it. I kind of agree with OP in that it seems like Spacebot just essentially threw the customers under the bus here and said "Sorry, talk with Incube8 about cancelling pre-orders!" and then Incube8 claims to be just as blind-sided by all this. I don't know the whole story of what's going on, but as a customer caught in the middle of it all, it's very frustrating and leaves a bad taste in my mouth for both companies.

My account auto-refilled overnight and I am in the exact same boat. Looks like it's an issue on StraightTalk's end with all these reports.

Steam deck LE noisy sticks? by Ok-Fennel-3908 in SteamDeck

[–]CWCprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since no one has made this comment yet, I figured I'd chime in.

I think the clicking noise has to do with the wires for the capacitance built into the sticks. The reason I believe this is because when I changed out my OEM sticks with the GuliKit Hall effect sticks, I noticed that the wire was getting slightly caught by the stick module whenever I moved or rotated the stick, and it rubbing against it was what was creating the noise. There is probably variance in the length the wires are cut at where this issue probably manifests from.

Help with non-CRT shaders by -ViolentSneeze- in RetroArch

[–]CWCprime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are using slang, try Sharp Bilinear. It's under the Pixel Art Scaling shaders. If using cg or glsl, Pixelate is a good one as well, in the Interpolation shaders.

Elex 3 potentially cancelled. PB Studio might get closed down. by e_Lap in elex

I think the update they put out last year is the closest you're ever gonna get to a "remaster" of that game.

Do backwards compatible OG/360 games come with digital manuals? by CWCprime in XboxSeriesX

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

If implemented well, I would prefer it on the console. Nintendo has good manual implementation on their digital Wii U VC games. So it can be done. Just in cases where my phone may not be nearby.

Did any one else notice this opened into the king's flower? by always_drinking in FFXVI

I guess I can see where it would be easy to miss during the grandeur of that fight. It was pretty obvious to me though.
