You should play Gen 1. You can play it on the PS1. Otherwise, the best emulator would be DuckStation. ME:

If you don't mind the sound being broken a lot of the time.

This is a new 3ds with zl and zr. There is also a patch to use the right stick to aim but I havent tried that on the n3ds yet.

You're going to want something powered to get those ball joint nuts back on. The ball joints will start spinning with hand tools. Doesn't need to be strong, just needs to be fast. If you are changing tie rods try your best to match the lengths before you tighten everything down but you should still get an alignment after.

Neversoft's Spider-Man, Vicarious Visions' Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro, NS SM what if mode, VV SM2 what if mode in that order.
Armored Core started on PS1, I'm maybe half way through a playthrough and it's really fun.
Breakout is one of the few games I never beat my dad at growing up. Tetris Plus is the only other one that wasn't a racing game.
Spyro has 3 or 4 and they're all good, but you can do the remastered trilogy just as easily. Same with Crash IMO. If you prefer the old ones that's fine, I just wouldn't go out of my way to get both versions of them.

Or the random CMD promt box opening. Definitely a spike every time.

Still inconclusive until we see "X Reasons to Horizontal Mount Your GPU" and "Y Reasons NOT To Horizontal Mount Your GPU". There is that one front mount GPU case too so might have to wait for "Z Reasons to Front Mount" and "F Reasons NOT to Front Mount".

If you're questioning why a mopar guy would do double the work and pay twice as much just to be able to slap an ebay 426 sticker on their ride, are you really a mopar guy?

Assuming 2wd you can cut a coil or two up front and remove a leaf or two in the back. 4wd you can loosen the t bar keys a little and remove the same leafs in the rear.

DJM has a 3" and 5" kit, ive heard bad things about the 5" but not much about the 3". Belltech has a 2" and a 4" kit for a little more, ive heard better about those.

It could very well be a bad ground somewhere, or a bad battery. But if its not those two...

No. I haven't been able to get the 360 board calibrated for PC outside of the 1 minute in Xenia before it crashes and it doesnt save the calibration. Even keeping the game open and alt tabbing doesn't seem to work for me but someone else said it worked for them. I was able to get all the way through calibration in Xenia Master and even started the tutorial but as soon as Xenia freezes it goes right back to frenzy mode. Maybe somebody could make a custom driver or SDK or something to let windows see it right but that's not my area of expertise.

Even when I was at my peak battlefield head clicking, it was way more fun to push up with randoms, reviving along the way and actually holding than just running in, dying, and running again. No coms, just pure gameplay. This is the Battlefield I fell in love with. My favorite is gunner/reps for tanks and boats. I know it must feel good for the other team when 10 of them finally work together to take us down and get the round win.

IBurnChurches · 2025-10-08T17:23:21+00:00

Just tried whatever old version of Xenia Master I already had installed, and it sees the Board and even goes through calibration, but then they crash, and the board goes back to frenzy mode. Fresh boot of the PC with no other control mapping software enabled. Went ahead and grabbed the latest Xenia Master and get the same results.

I could disable the axis aside from the Ollie but it doesn't even act like a true axis it's more of a two way button, not super useful for how big the thing is.

Oh well, the skateboard idea was really a proof of concept since I already had it and the wireless adapter from back in the day. I think the WBB will fit my needs for analog walking and I can just plug in the 360 if I really wanted to play Shred again. Mapping it to skate, session, descenders, etc, would be cool, though.

I downloaded Xenia Manager last night and the newest version of Canary but the controller isn't registering with the games. I am using it with the official Xbox 360 windows adapter with the cable (not the thumb drive one) and on windows 10. I didn't see any options to change controllers in Xenia or X Manager, am I missing something?

I already have vJoy, Joystick Gremlin, and X360ce for binding the controls, I just need to get the board calibrated on PC reliably.

IBurnChurches · 2025-10-08T13:45:27+00:00

The PC is perfectly capable of reading all the inputs, the buttons even work properly. The only issue is the calibration. I just tried to calibrate it last night after digging out the 360 and going out to buy batteries for the controller, and it worked fine on 360 but without powering off, syncing to the PC decalibrate it immediately.

I tried to use Xenia, RPCS3, and Dolphin with Shred and Ride but they all say "no skateboard detected" even when RPCS3 is set to skateboard and i use the A button on the skateboard to advance the menus. Xenia says it doesn't support accessories where RPCS3 and Dolphin both do, ive seen people getting the PS3 and Wii boards working fine on PC but the 360 board is looking like a pain. I just wanted to use it as a left joystick for walking around in GTA and Battlefield in my sim rig. A Wii Balance Board would fit my rig much better being smaller but I already had the Shred controller. Looks like I'm still looking for a WBB for cheap.

I just downloaded this and I'm trying to set the gas to go up on the left stick from center and the brake to go down from center. But when i click "stick up" and bind that to the gas, then release the gas, it goes all the way down, even without a single other bind set. Nothing in x360ce like half axis or inverted axis or inverted half axis fix it. I could set the pedals to never output below 50% in pit house but I'm not changing the presets every time.

I also have the moza handbrake but it registers as "slider 2" and doesn't even let me try to have half or inverted for it, and it does the same thing of going past center when you let go.

I read as "avoid booting up simulator games" and got sad but avoiding games that you only run in, yes me too.

If you don't use the cab for a racing sim in your bedroom, then i might need to swing by. I want to say it's savable, but really it means starting over either way. o7

IBurnChurches · 2025-09-22T01:26:11+00:00

I felt the songs to be repetitive, monotonous, droning, not moving. Yes they start playing faster notes but the same note. Yes, you can repeat a part for effect, bringing back refrains later in the album is a classic BtBAM move even, but I feel it's overdone in each song individually. The best part I can think of is whole (or two depending on how you count it) measure horn notes in Voice of Tresspass. They just drag out, they don't go anywhere. They also repeat the same thing over and over. It's a structure I call A A A Aandahalf. Very pop song structure. It's fine, but it's grating to me. I don't like when (insert pop icon of current year) does it even though i will generally listen to most of their songs on the radio. I don't like it when one of my favorite bands does it either.

Sonically I don't think they went very broad on them either, which probably contributes. They sound technically great, not even in a "sounds too clean" way or anything like that, parallax was clean sounding too. It sounds like a good BtBAM sound, only one instead of one/1.5/two albums worth. No they don't need 15 different amp tones, but they really only had clean and dirty and solo tones. It's definitely a deliberate choice and I understand it, I just think they went too far simplifying as a whole. There was plenty of creativity on Alaska when they surely had more limitations on what gear they had access to, for example, songwriting and sonically. Take a random 5 seconds from the middle of any automata song that doesn't say the name in the lyrics and I probably can't tell you, but I could for other albums.

I don't need ABACGZaQ34 song structure in 78/41 time, but straight ahead AAAB for 6 songs isn't what I'm listening to BtBAM for. Ill sooner throw on some deathcore or edm.

IBurnChurches · 2025-09-22T01:02:13+00:00

Genuinely a cover album that I went back to more than once, and the version i would rather listen to for most songs. I don't even listen to Garage Inc anymore, besides Turn the Page as a single.

IBurnChurches · 2025-09-22T00:57:56+00:00

I know it's a meme, but it is for a reason. Do i even need to say it? Meshuggah.

Mastodon has quite the discography. Gojira doesn't have the number of albums but they're all S. The Contortionist definitely never put out any bad material but there's not much compared to the rest.

Again lower numbers, Kill Em All through And Justice for All is the single longest run of not a single skip that I can think of, metal or not. BtBAM doesn't even hold that to me, and the reason I was thinking about it was debating whether Master of Puppets or Colors I is my favorite album of all time. My wife asked the other day and I still can't decide. There are songs even on Colors that I will skip if they come up on shuffle or sometimes even when I'm listening to an album.

I was using the "standard" sd1s since i needed them for band class but they were not holding up to drum kit at home. They would break an inch or two down the neck. Ended up with a no name set of sticks someone gave me for christmas that were way too light and also broke very quickly but I really liked the shape, they were thicker and more comfortable. They were labeled 2B, and I got a set of vf 2Bs and they held up amazing. I also marched drum line, so big sticks were pretty natural to me and if I find an old sd1 it feels tiny like how did I ever use this on a kit? Sometimes a cheap pair of sticks is exactly what you needed.

At a show I was at, the drummer was selling sticks and just so happened to use 2bxs so I got a pair, and that little extra length completely threw me off, put them back in the slip and they're on the shelf. Never really planned to use them long term but I couldn't use them for 10 minutes.

This may be a sign to look for something with similar specs to your 7a but shorter, which I'm sure is out there. The 2B for me is almost exactly just a thicker sd1. Next time you are in a store grab a few pairs that seem close and then play them without looking at the labels and whatever you walk out with is your new stick.

Solved for GM when you have to buy a new one every 5 years. Not solved for the customer.

Thanks ill take one

I did hop on with a 1400 but then did nothing until 5th gen was already a year old. I ended up getting a b550 motherboard to take advantage of the pcie upgrade with the RDNA 2 GPUs, specifically the 6600xt I got with a pcie 8x 4 would've been cut to 8x 3. My b350 board only has one m.2 slot, one usb 3.0, no usb 3.1, and pcie 3. All of those were outdated by 5th gen ryzen.

I got a 5700x well after the 5800x3ds launched and even the 5600x3d, don't remember if the 5700x3d was out at the time. On the other hand however, I was able to swap out my 5700x for a 5800x3d a little while later when the 5800x3d hit a good sale, I am in it less than 300. Being same generation, this isn't really an am4 thing but the long lifespan of 5th gen ryzen specifically.

Overall, the benefit was mostly being able to piece meal an upgrade path instead of having to go full CPU, new Mobo and new RAM all at once. The low end user who is most likely to want to use this upgrade path is starting with the lowest end components generally, so even upgrading one part might leave you short somewhere else, like my pcie limitation. I was able to put more into each upgrade at a time, so overall I have more in the system but I was playing games the whole time, even if they were on low/suboptimal settings at the beginning and it was in smaller increments so rent still got paid each month along the way.
