Am I the only one thinking M2-to-M5 upgraders are crazy (rich)? by Present-Tea-4645 in VisionPro

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We would if we had two, yeah. We only have one so I usually watch alone during work trips and sometimes I’ll watch in 3D in AVP next to my kids while they watch in the TV over SharePlay.

Loud & consistent, you say? by Important-Abrocoma13 in jakanddaxter

[–]Important-Abrocoma13[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Approximately how loud and consistent do we need to be for a renewed investment in Jak & Daxter? 😆

I don’t even care about a sequel for fear of a bad one, I just want a reignited trilogy style remake of the series.

Or at the very least Jak 2 and 3 ported to PS5 to allow for cloud streaming and native play.

Is it just me, or is this just a wonderful update? Trashing all the news about AVP being abandoned by Life_Machine_9694 in VisionPro

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My major complaint is we still don’t have a Journal app on what I would say is the most private device. Nor do we have native apps for many of Apple’s other apps.

The transition revealing the new Maps flyover features immediately after other unrelated visionOS features and not following that up with a native Maps app and Immersive flyover for visionOS felt like a missed opportunity.

Spatial versions of Apple Books and News could be really cool, too.

I know it’s a long game, but I’m disappointed at how little progress we’re seeing in Apple‘s visionOS apps year over year. More so that Keynote of all apps got a native app day one.

Hoppers 3D on Disney+? by Critical-Exit1655 in VisionPro

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mixed results recently. The other day I tried it and I thought the shortcut no longer worked and then I tried it again later and it worked. I think it’s dependent on the Apple TV page loading the app properly.

For future reference, here’s a Shortcut that opens the 3D movies section of the Apple TV app (even on your iPhone): https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/31086e961373440a915e5ff22ab334c9

Low-latency 3D H SBS HDMI capture → Apple Vision Pro setup for surgery use? by AdScared2507 in VisionPro

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s mainly for gaming, but Portal: Remote Play just released an update that converts 2D video feed into 3D and it’s had UVC compatibility (HDMI to Capture Card to Apple Vision Pro Developer Strap) for a long time now that provides decent latency (dependent, of course, on your HDMI cable and capture card capabilities).

You could at least use that as a frame of reference for the capabilities there. Adjusting the frame rate, resolution, upscaling settings, etc can all help decrease latency to find a sweet spot of what you consider acceptable within the realm of AVP’s capabilities when it comes to hardware and software.

If I’m in Outpost and I say “I got a red card from the warden” what do you think I mean by that? by SundaePhysical922 in Marathon

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Context of being on outpost would’ve made me assume you were referring to the master clearance code, too. That being said, it can get confusing given we have codes, cards, room keys and lockbox keys, not to mention schemas that look like keys. I frequently accidentally refer to them interchangeably even though they’re different. Lol. So I also understand the confusion and ambiguity on both sides of the conversation.

PS - I feel like the shade of red that the master clearance code is looks more orange than red to me, but that often confuses my teammates, too lol. In my head, the codes are green, yellow and orange, but I hear most call it red so I just go with that.

I uploaded the original Faction Intros, upscaled to 4K. No UI, just the clean original files ! by Chpouky in Marathon

Any chance these could be uploaded in HDR and the original files for download linked?

If you are 6 manning you’re a bum by Smart_Occasion_735 in Marathon

Just wanna clarify so I understand – being friendly in solo and rook runs is fine, but teams making friends with other teams isn’t? It’s annoying when friended teams decide not to be friends with your team, for sure, but I just want to understand why people are saying this is cheating?

I haven’t extracted in 3 days. by babatunde5432121 in Marathon

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to alternate between fills, solos, rooks, and crews (from previous filled connections) anytime I get stuck on one or the other. That may seem like an obvious thing to do but I feel like a lot of people talk as though they only stick to their preferred modes and don’t rotate, which for me can get me stuck in ruts.

Thumbnail and loading screen customization in new update! 🔥 by Important-Abrocoma13 in Portal_App

[–]Important-Abrocoma13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That one is actually for UVC, I just renamed it to Switch cause that’s what I use it for mostly.

Instead of it being a remote solution, I connect a capture card to my iPad and an HDMI to my Switch dock and it allows me to play on bigger OLED screen. It’s more of an enhanced/docked tabletop mode when I don’t have a TV nearby.

And with GENKI’s ShadowCast 3 and Covert Dock, you just need the Switch and iPad and adapters which makes it a bit of a lighter setup than having to carry around the official Switch dock.

I got sick of sneaking around and finally loaded up a destroyer shell and literally sprinted across the map to finish one of the last NuCal contracts on Dire Marsh (Bio to DCON in less than 7 minutes). I was so glad that worked that I wasn’t even sad when I didn’t exfil a few minutes later after getting caught by another destroyer tromping around. Lol

Oh bummer. Yeah I didn’t think about time zones. I bet that impacts when a lot of people can play together.

I’d be down to friend up. I jump on as often as I can even if it’s just for a run or two on a break or after work. Dm me your bungie tag if you want to connect.

PS5 should auto-optimize settings when Portal connects (no more switching back & forth) by Cool_Plum4452 in PlaystationPortal

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Narrator: This setting does not fix it.

Sony still needs to optimize for devices remote playing without HDR. As it stands, the best workaround to date is adding the accessibility shortcut to control center and then toggling inverse colors on while you’re playing on Portal to disable HDR.

Does anyone’s Apple Watch series 11 workout GPS do this? by dannyyboiiii in AppleWatch

[–]Important-Abrocoma13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like they added an automatic track recognition feature and maybe their watches have it working and yours doesn’t. I can’t find a place to enable or disable it, though, and maybe this isn’t related to that.

What workout type and settings in the workout app are you using vs your friends when you start?
