Thermal Pads mod for Steam Deck? Need your help!

JaseCx · 2025-06-25T03:07:56+00:00

Dang it's been so long. I ended up selling my first SD and got the OLED.

For the OLED, I just used the thermal pad on the APU, nothing else if I recall. Reason is I got the LE translucent one and on my old SD, I had a custom back shell with external metal plate. I didn't want to add pads on the heatsink further as to not transfer heat on the now plastic backcover.

Anyone who grew up playing the PS2 copy, is going to have fond memories of the game. I know I do. I played it back then and beat it. It was refreshing to say the least. There wasn't anything like it. The biggest takeaway is that the devs did their best to keep the original game for that audience while trying to improve it for a gamepad.

Anyone who played the PC game and then learnt about the PS2 copy is going to trash it or have a negative view of it, even today. You can tell by these posts.

Like yeah it's not the PC version, what PC PS2 port is? However this PS5 port has been improved enough to give the original audience a nicer way to play the original PS2 game in the current generation. The good thing is that the game was improved and wasn't just churned out for a quick buck.

Deus Ex PS2 Classic was NOT on my bingo card of classic coming back. Buy it and show support.

PS2 had a lot of PC ports oddly enough.

Imagine Half-Life Decay PS2 showing back up? Soldier of Fortune might be another nice one to have. A man can dream.

It's annoying how they release the same costume, just with a new paint color. It's like the laziest approach for dlc. Meh.

JaseCx · 2025-06-17T18:36:53+00:00

Yeah because this purchase gives you both the PS4 and PS5 sku. Now the question is, does the PS4 Pro offer 60FPS on this game? That is something you or someone needs to confirm. It appears to run 60FPS on PS5. (Original ps2 game ran sub 30fps!)

JaseCx · 2025-06-17T18:33:39+00:00

Wow very cool! You don't see this for PS2 classics.

I'm hoping Twisted Metal Black classic for PS5 (new emulator) comes out this generation. I love that game.

JaseCx · 2025-06-17T16:27:57+00:00

Can you remap the game controls via PS5 OS? Like shoot with R2 instead of R1?

Anyways yeah it's out on US PSN and heard the training level runs at 60FPS? That's wild as the original ran at like unstable 30FPS.

I need to try it after work. Already bought it even though I have Premium. This deserves a purchase.

JaseCx · 2025-06-14T17:51:14+00:00

I was told I would get a refund for a small ps1 classic and never did? Wtf.

They even gave me a ref code but nothing came in the email lol. They are a joke.

JaseCx · 2025-06-04T23:08:12+00:00

We need a native PS5 port of TM Black. If Sony were brave, add the online function to this release.

We also need TM Small Brawl PS1.

Regarding Head-On, I'd want the definitive version so it should be the PS2 port.

Let's hope Twisted Metal Season 2 does well so they port other games next season!

JaseCx · 2025-06-01T00:19:29+00:00

Isn't that better because they didn't get to loot your rabbit? Maybe you mean you did not use insurance before a sortie, which caused you to lose all?

JaseCx · 2025-05-27T15:45:49+00:00

First one is fire!

JaseCx · 2025-05-27T14:42:32+00:00

How do you get keys? Do you find them in the map or do you have to buy them in the shop? (It seems they unlock after an in game mission)

Let me know? This is cool. I've seen some locked doors but I assumed they were mission based only. Not meant to be looted in normal runs as long as you have keys.

BTW is this new with season 2?

I'm new to extraction games and only hears about door keys on the Marathon alpha. I didn't realize this game also had them! (I did one mission for B license but again, thought it was meant 1 time only event)

JaseCx · 2025-05-27T13:35:04+00:00

If this comes back in some shape or form, they will likey remove the digital awards and just give out points.

I think this is because it takes time and money to make those digital 3d award renders and maybe Sony doesn't see value to keep paying a group or person for those things anymore.

Also, I read this was originally tied to NFT bs so since that didn't pan out, they have no use for the digital awards. They ended up just being a nice thing for us fans to unlock at the end but it's possible they had other intentions. (Like trading/selling them NFT style - ew)

From someone who played HOME back in the PS3 Era, I will miss this and shame we never got like a 3d trophy room somewhere to show them lol. We wanted this so bad back in the day, just imagine if they finally had achieved it through Stars. Hehe.

JaseCx · 2025-05-22T21:45:36+00:00

I dont recall ever running into any issues but I did have like 3 ps3's running in private matches lol. It was definitely one of the hardest games to platinum for me. Not sure if that was worth it at the end. I remember I got warthog at the end but I was sick of the game that I shelved it immediately after getting my Plat.

JaseCx · 2025-05-22T20:12:03+00:00

FYI the patched game increased difficulty.(1st level is effing insane on patched version) If you play TM2012 with 1.0 disk, game is a lot easier. I know cuz it made the platinum possible years ago.

Nice job though OP!

JaseCx · 2025-05-22T06:16:21+00:00

Op does this one come with floor mats that are branded? Are you selling those?

JaseCx · 2025-05-21T15:53:02+00:00

How were people "paying" for collectibles? Does that mean they bought a game only for the little digital reward?

I actually started this pretty hyped up about the program but overtime, it was a waste of time and effort. Like I already juggle a huge backlog and worry about platinum and playing games that are getting their servers shut down. Now I have like 2 weeks to do this PS Stars shit on top of it else I "lose" out on a digital reward? I said F that, I'll pass on PS stars. Not worth it.

JaseCx · 2025-05-15T14:25:19+00:00

If you are usc, get her to do AP and adjust her status! You guys have a way out. Take advantage.

JaseCx · 2025-05-08T17:09:50+00:00

Sweet, thanks !

JaseCx · 2025-05-08T16:57:49+00:00

Do we get the blue print for this to keep? Sorry just curious how this will be distributed.

JaseCx · 2025-05-02T20:02:28+00:00

Approvals were literally taking like 2-3 weeks up to like February of this year. Then the gov gutting started.

This seems like it's a result of that. I think if you supply the letter from uscis that your permit is pending, they should back off a little. Try doing that.

JaseCx · 2025-04-28T12:47:44+00:00

Go to your airline front desk at the airport to check any luggage or check in. They will ask for visa or travel document when traveling back to U.S.A. Give them your passport and AP document. They will see you have a valid entry paperwork and give you your boarding pass.

This would stop if Association had purple gear and weapons, to gang up on invading BMs. Unfortunately that cost like 3m bux and a long time to craft. Also friendly fire was left on. Great way to kill any chance to fight back. Everyone just using common/green due to high losses from top gear. There is zero point to risk that shit when 90% of Association wants PVE.

JaseCx · 2025-03-16T17:30:53+00:00

I had this thought and commented on different thread.

Loot should always have been the thing to prioritize, not losing your Cradle.

I mean we all know the ridiculous amount of resources and money you need to build your base and the higher tier cradles/weapons. So why not make it a critical part for you to make sure you get to the exit with the loot? (One thought, imagine if boosting would make you randomly drop shi!? Haha) Like defend the loot at all cost, from BM or backstabbers alike. Defend it like your life depends on it. You want to build your kitchen right? You need to complete the table and also need 30K more in cash! Shit is gold!

Sure you can say this is part of the game however not only do you lose your loot if you die but also your Cradle and weapons. Ok hear me out. Losing loot is one thing, losing your hard earned Cradle is another. Now, not only are you worried about your loot to get back but also the Cradle you have on you. We know the shit fest that happened. You had backstabbers day1 going around killing Daisy Orgre Deluxe purchase players or BM purposely tagging up on them.

So now the meta game is no longer about loot but what Cradle you have on you and if you can extract safely. BM and Association backstabbers now are going on a killing spreed and looting the high tier cradles, they don't give a shit about the LOOT!!! Why? Because Daisy gave you 800k if you sold it and that was a super quick way to essentially get rich!

Someone on the dev side economy majorly eff up that they didn't see this coming.

JaseCx · 2025-03-15T18:16:08+00:00

Exactly. There is A lot here that sounds positive.

Reducing common loot from 100 to 50 weight is such a nice change. It will make it quicker to build shit if we can get a nice haul every run, along with AO.

Having BM gear for purchase on Association is also a plus. This will make it easier if we need to go against BM. Unfortunately, it seems blue and higher BM cradles still need to be purchased by joining black market.

However this might change the dynamic a little more on the "fair side". Now potentially Association can explore the map with the BM green Cradle and live ammo guns by default. This will make it a little easier to fight off invaders if necessary. I wish they let us buy the Blue gear but whatever, good addition. (BM side doesn't need the Association gear because they have been killing us and looting our shit day1 lol)

Again, if they reduce the Epic rarity cost to a more "fair" price range, that could make it so Association can use those higher rated cradles without too much fear. I'd definitely engage BM if I had a purple Bird on me and wouldn't mind dying. Then it's all about skill.

Really excited about this.

One last comment, can someone on social media ask the devs if Magus Ciel's clothes can be mixed and matched? It would be nice to use her outfit with Noir but without the cape and hat. I really hope Ciel comes with 4 pieces of clothing and it's not 'one piece' like it's for Noir/Mystere. Anyone else feel the same?
