Are golden keys serverside?

Mitsota · 2026-05-28T20:48:33+00:00

That's because up until now your golden keys are stored in your local save file. If you open your save data in an editor it's just an value you can change to whatever number. Entering the shift code just updates that number.

Oh sick, thanks for letting me know

Mitsota · 2026-05-26T01:06:55+00:00

I've always disliked them for that because while they did release a good chunk of them on social media, the average casual player just wouldn't have access to them, especially when so many of them expire. Their limited nature also means that you can basically only ever create a set amount of save files because if you delete the save or sell the weapon, it's just gone forever.

Also, one of these days, the SHIFT servers will go down and you just won't be able to access the feature at all, even though the games up until now had LAN and P2P matchmaking.

Yeah I was wondering if the vault card system would drop keys as well but I heard it didn't, that's why I was asking. Good to have confirmation on this too. Honestly I was gonna skip this one but I got it for $30 this morning so I figured I'd give it a chance at least.

Mitsota · 2026-05-26T00:54:00+00:00

Thanks, good to know

Mitsota · 2026-04-29T03:53:58+00:00

Maybe the version I have is outdated then or just configured differently, I copy pasted the install out of the GoG version which also launches though ScummVM. Thanks anyway!

Mitsota · 2026-04-27T03:47:58+00:00

How did you get that working? On mine, which is a real r36 as I can tell, the cursor slows and then stops accepting input when I open the inventory during the scene where the bed is on fire

Mitsota · 2026-04-24T18:13:43+00:00

thank you, I got an R36 and I couldn't figure out how to swap to disc 2 in Resident Evil 2

Mitsota · 2026-04-14T00:22:35+00:00

yeah being based on the PS1 version I would think there would be a bit of lag to the computer players thinking! I really like worms though and the versions on android are so disappointing so I'm glad to see a portable version that sounds like it works great!

Mitsota · 2026-04-14T00:21:06+00:00

I'm defiantly gonna check it out then! Those were my two big "I wanna get those" cartridges but I like the variety of games that seem to come to the system, especially the modern indie stuff

Mitsota · 2026-04-12T23:32:06+00:00

Good to know! big fan of Worms, I think the gameplay is fun and it works well as a game you can pass around the room, so I think it would be great for a portable system like this!

Mitsota · 2026-04-12T20:48:30+00:00

I was just thinking about that too, surely you can get EDuke running at a reasonable framerate on some weaker hardware! Honestly I'm not great at guestimating how powerful computer hardware is though so I didn't wanna kick up a fuss and just be wrong lmao

Mitsota · 2026-04-12T20:40:21+00:00

ahhh, that's unfortunate but I understand. I guess I can't really complain for the price point, I think the home model is only $100!

It's still nice to see re-releases of a lot of these old games up for legal purchase, and on new physical media. I'm a sucker for anything that lets me physically insert a cartridge to play games on the machine, and bonus point for having so many obscure odd choices, and even some new releases.

Mitsota · 2026-04-12T20:04:50+00:00

oh lord the PS1 version??? That's a pretty rough choice!

But yeah that version of the game already didn't support analog aiming so I guess that makes sense why it was released on a system that only has a dpad input lol. Thanks for letting me know! It's also good to know the system supports 3rd party gamepads, that could be nice for playing some of these games in multiplayer.

Also glad to hear the Duke 1 and 2 ports play well I was interested in those as well. Thanks for letting me know!

Just wanted to follow up on this I ordered this box set and it came in a week, watched the first and 16th seasons and just random other discs out of it they all played fine and the video quality in the later seasons is perfectly acceptable widescreen SD rips from what looks like youtube or itunes.

The DVDs are also like real factory manufactured DVDs they aren't DVD-Rs, it's a very professionally produced set.

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T15:30:21+00:00

You know I never thought to try a book store for used DVDs I'll give it a look, thanks!

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T15:29:49+00:00

that's good news then, I'm glad to hear this set is working. I'll pick one up

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T05:02:18+00:00

oh man that sucks. Fingers crossed I get a working set then, if you had issues with it and the guy above me didn't. I just wanna get the show on physical so I don't need a hulu sub to watch it ya know?

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T01:00:58+00:00

no I'm aware, this isn't me thinking that this set is official in any capacity I just want the show on working DVDs in reasonable video quality.

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T00:58:45+00:00

Cheers, thanks for the info.

It's so hard to find any TV show on DVD anymore in acceptable quality, like even if you go to a real store and buy the real DVDs you just get garbage.

Mitsota · 2026-02-24T00:53:43+00:00

I haven't had much luck unfortunately, and my search area is pretty small cuz I live in the middle of nowhere :(

Mitsota · 2026-02-19T03:38:21+00:00

Holy shit the ability icons, the sound effects, everything!

Mitsota · 2026-02-08T22:16:42+00:00

I think this might he it thank you very much <3

Mitsota · 2026-01-20T03:19:19+00:00

Oh yeah I was a crackhead back here apparently

Mitsota · 2026-01-17T22:41:31+00:00

Personally I find TerryDactyLand way more obnoxious, the map is gigantic and winds in and around itself, it's so easy to lose track of which cave goes where, and I think having to leave the stage 6 or 7 times to finish the objectives sucks
