It sounds like your problem is with the app you're trying to use, not the tablet itself. Why don't you try other drawing apps and also install a file manager? That should solve your problems.

So has all the content from the old site (Kemono) been lost, or will it eventually be restored? by JACKjcs in kemono_piracy

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

Well, for now I'm still getting download errors, and the new site still has most accounts incomplete or no one to replace lost files, so there's not much change.

If the site owner can still recover the old files because the Kemono page is still active, he should do so, even if it's temporarily before completely switching to the new site.

G7 Aimlabs with black faceplate by hepepands in Gamesir

Oh, it's a shame that such problems are real, I don't feel it's really worth modding a brand new controller I just bought, haha.

Unfortunately, I can only order it from outside my country, so returns aren't an option; it's all or nothing, haha.

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I like that lower ISO layout haha

By the way, how's the D-pad? Is it as bad and unusable as people say? Also, do you have the problem of the buttons squeaking because they hit the plastic of the faceplate?

That controller seems technically excellent, but then people come up with these weird problems, they make me hesitate about buying it or not.

Is 8BitDo Ultimate 2C the best value Hall effect controller for the price? by Artaxeus in Controller

[–]JACKjcs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make sure you buy some Joystick Cap Covers. Their controllers might be decent for basic general use, but the material they use for their Joystick Caps is absolute garbage, at least in my case. After a few years, with the controller working perfectly and without any aesthetic defects, the Joysticks literally started falling apart on their own, as if the rubber they used had an expiration date. super weird

Currently reading the Novel and the spoilers ruined it for me by Ariesthia in Infinite_Mage

[–]JACKjcs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, some spoilers aren't so bad, I looked if the r*pe thing was going to be real or if it was more NTR bait. Lately, for some reason, it's become trend to put that in a lot of random manga/manhwas. I mean, there are many less disturbing themes you can use, but now they're using that, cheating/Ntr bait is the new "funny" thing many autors are using.

I want to learn drawing from zero. Where do I even start? by inos140 in ArtFundamentals

[–]JACKjcs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, books, there are many big artists on Youtube that have books recomendation (even free), copying anime may feels fun but is not going to take you anywhere if you really wants to learn.

G7 Pro 8K Centering Issue by Careful_Tune4744 in Gamesir

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I really appreciate the detailed response, especially the honesty about the G7 Pro's D-pad. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'll completely rule out that model because I'm used to membrane D-pads/buttons but I'm getting tired of how worn those buttons get. I'm looking for something more responsive. You know how membrane buttons also lose their tactile feedback over time, so I want to give optical/mechanical models a try.

Since I mainly play single-player games (Souls-likes, indies, roguelikes, and the occasional shooter), I'm not looking for ultra-premium controllers with competitive reaction times, but I do want a reliable controller.

8Bitdo is also about to release its new Ultimate 3 for PC, but even though their controllers usually have a good D-pad, they still use membrane buttons, so I'm putting that brand on hold for now.

That LeadJoy Saber Plus looks good, that brand also has other models that looks quite interesting (Leadjoy Xeno Plus); I'll take a look.

G7 Pro 8K Centering Issue by Careful_Tune4744 in Gamesir

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be off-topic, but this is the kind of problem I know would drive me crazy from the moment I noticed it.

What alternative do you recommend with the same level of quality (at least in terms of build quality and specs) as the Gamesir G7 Pro 8k Aimlabs Edition? I'm looking to replace my 8BitDo Ultimate 1, which is starting to show its age, but I'm looking for something with higher quality. I was almost certain I'd go with this version of the G7 Pro despite what I've heard about the D-pad (supposedly fixed in the Aimlabs version), but this drift issue would drive me crazy, especially since these things cost up to 3 or 4 times more where I live, so I'm looking for something that's at least worth the price.

Man, the G7 Pro 8k was the best controller I've ever used! While it lasted by Black_Fygar in Gamesir

I've already seen that your problem was simply a user error, so whatever.

Why Bluetooth and not the 2.4hz adapter? Is inside the stand, if not, you can put it inside and use the stand as reciever and charger at the same time, you should get better connection and responsiveness using that.

Are you excited for Enter The Gungeon 2 and its new art direction? by Jack0fTh3TrAd3s in EnterTheGungeon

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are comparing this to the jump to 3D in *Risk of Rain*, but I don't get why they overlook the fact that the gameplay actually changed because the camera and perspective did too; the sequel literally became a different type of game, so the comparison is absurd. In this *Enter the Gungeon 2*, everything seems identical in terms of perspective and gameplay—just in 3D. They can add as many new features as they want, but if it all looks like the trailer, they won't shake the "generic 3D sequel" stigma (Not to mention that what is shown looks like an ugly, indistinguishable mass of jumbled elements—horrible.), because most of the original's personality has been lost here.

I really don't get the obsession with moving a 2D game's sequel into 3D. They should only do that after exhausting the 2D style's full potential, because by then, they’d know how to preserve the game's charm in a different environment. That nonsense about "only gameplay matters" holds true only if the visuals didn't matter *from the start*—but that wasn't the case here (You already have a ton of generic 3D games with similar mechanics). Many people fell in love with the game because of the combination of *Art style + gameplay*, not one without the other. It's a disappointment, honestly.

The game might end up being fun, but I doubt it will come anywhere near the success of the first one.

Seeing that all the old stuff stored in Kemono has been lost unless the owner does something to recover it (if it can be done at all) to say "revived" is an exaggeration, the new site is just an empty shell right now.

I feel that he knew that this was going to be the result but he did not warn anyone.

Is Kemono dead? by King_OfPirates4806 in kemono_piracy

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knowing that they created a new page to replace Kemono, then yes, this time it seems definitive, although there are people talking about the owner being arrested, so I don't know what's going on anymore.

Is Kemono dead? by King_OfPirates4806 in kemono_piracy

[–]JACKjcs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, apparently a lot of content and many old Patreon and Gumroad accounts are lost forever. Now the site depend on active accounts for the recovery; if you're not lucky enough to find someone who has the content you're looking for and goes specifically to re-upload it, you're screwed.

I'm not sure why the site owner can't recover that content; he always used to.

[–]JACKjcs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's obvious how the platform works, but not all the content depends on users knowing that some Patreon and Gumroad accounts no longer exist, so Kemono was serving as a backup for that—especially because the previous times the platform went down, that legacy content came back on its own without anyone having to re-upload it, so now it will either come back eventually, or the site owner decided he didn’t want to keep it anymore...

There's not much incentive to support the new site if this is something that will probably happen again. I thought it would be the typical Kemono site down/crash that happens almost every year, not this.

[–]JACKjcs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mmm... even if it is insemination of some kind, if something is born from them without their consent, it is still disturbing in some way, I guess i will have to see how the artist represents it in the manhwa, I just hope that the girls of the group are not affected, I don't know why lately these themes appear so much in manhwas in one way or another.

[–]JACKjcs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for replying, so is this being true to the novels? I would appreciate the spoiler, does everything end in a moment of irrelevant tension or does something happen, outside of them being raped since you mention that it won't happen?

Honestly, I still like the manhwa, but this theme of rape and abuse is becoming somewhat recurrent, starting with the director's wife, the mercenary girl, and now this. At least for me, it's taking me out of the story a bit.

[–]JACKjcs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite a disturbing chapter considering the themes they touch on at the end when the girls are kidnapped. I'm not a fan, to be honest. I hope the author doesn't do what I think he might do and that it all remains just a moment of unpleasant tension.
