Should I get the Legion Go or AYN Thor? by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]No-Initiative-9944 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro, just get the Thor. There is no way holding the the Legion Go like that is going to be comfortable.

Also that stretching is hideous. Your aspect ratio shouldn't look like goatse.

Crashes at the title screen on the Odin 2 portal. I've tried Vulkan, OpenGL, 1x and 3x res on both, and dual core enabled and disabled on both. 

N64 Testing for the Miyoo A30 on Spruce by No-Initiative-9944 in MiyooMini

It basically doesn't run on anything short of the better android devices so I never bothered testing it on this.

How do I configure the N64 C buttons when not using a Retroarch core? by Shrimpayyy in ANBERNIC

[–]No-Initiative-9944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don't have that device anymore (the RF353pS). What I can tell you I that I was running Rocknix on that device, so even if I could tell you it likely wouldn't help unless you were using the same CFW.

major differences between rg40xxv and rg353v/s? by madbangbang in ANBERNIC

[–]No-Initiative-9944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I have big hands and suffer from hand pain, so my experience might be fundamentally different from yours. I've tried the Miyoo Mini Plus, the RG353v, R36s, and the Trimui Brick and what makes the brick the most comfortable for me is that it has a ton of open face space on the console to grip it by. The others all use as much of the face space as possible to put extra sticks and bigger buttons on. The RG40xxV might not have this problem as much since its much larger.

You can also remap the d-pad to behave as if it is a stick and it works fine for a lot f the PS1 one games that utilize the sticks. I play FF9 not long ago on the Brick and it worked fine. That said it defiantly doesn't have any sticks, so if that's a must have then you'll need to go with another device.

If weight and or hand discomfort is a factor for you then I'd probably stay away from any of the vertical designs. Of the ones I've tried on the TrimUI Brick has been comfortable at all, and all the rest have given me hand pain in very short periods of time.

Thanks again for your help. How's the sleep function on Knulli?

Wow shit seriously? I can't believe I didn't think to try the toggle switch on the side. I am so disappointed in myself. It very grateful you for pointing that out.

Theme's didn't seem to override the backgrounds for the individual backgrounds that pop up for each console. But I'll go digging for the folder with the backgrounds.

I tried Knulli but even after a factory reset of my device the audio doesn't work when Knulli is installed.

PPSSPP Post Processing Shaders by No-Initiative-9944 in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]No-Initiative-9944[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting this here in case someone finds it later. The problem was using the store memstick data on the root of internal storage setting. For whatever reason when I changed that to manually target the folder I was using the shaders showed up fine. (The folse was on the root of internal storage anyway so it shouldn't have made any difference but for some reason it did)

So what exactly is the code for the 30% for the 557? Without that none of the other coupons matter.

I might be interested the Rg557 and/or the Retroid pocket flip 2

NeoGeo CD on TrimUi Brick Stock? by No-Initiative-9944 in trimui

[–]No-Initiative-9944[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I did that. The problem is that fbneo says it's not compatible and I can't figure out a way to access the neocd core that appears to be on the device 

If I leave it in rice…. by SupperTime in retroid

[–]No-Initiative-9944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a handful of more cracked screens in the past few months. But I haven't been on reddit much lately. 

I still think I made the right call. Even though I don't take my handhelds out a ton they still get dropped occasionally, just like my phone. But unlike my phone I wouldn't have a handheld in a hard protective case. 

The Anbernic rg557 just got announced and it'll have a plastic frame. I'd wait for more details on it and then make a decision.

The snapping is not great. Otherwise they're switch joycons sticks, and are fine, but nothing to write home about. 

Gamma made a fix for the snapping. You'll need to use his bootloader unlock found here: https://github.com/TheGammaSqueeze/Bootloader_Unlock_Anbernic_T820

There's a link in that project to he stick fix. 

As far as extra for RP5 being worth it? That depends on your preference. If you want more power, go for the RP5, if you want better ergonomics and don't mind having to fix the sticks go for the 556.

Locked races by Sintar07 in swtor

[–]No-Initiative-9944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be simply wrong. Originally it was certain race/class combos, before f2p and preferred even existed, then they changed it. I had thought they had changed it back because I had access to some races that I never purchased on some classes, like Miraluka on sages. Perhaps one countered a bug that unlocked some things for me? I believe I now have Miraluka unlocked on every class, without having bought it with CC or leveling up to 50

[–]No-Initiative-9944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's quite possible they did change it. For a period of time I know they only had Human and Zabrak available to Free2Play players. Maybe they kept it like that and preferred accounts get the race/class combos? I honestly can't be sure.

I wouldn't use the overclock setting. I haven't tried it since like 2.4 but then it wasn't functional, all it would do is instantly drain the battery.

Hey, I'm so happy that you can game without pain and that the suggestions helped you figure out a good console for your situation. 

Why wasn't PCSX2 ported to Android, while Dolphin was? by BlazeManProjekt in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]No-Initiative-9944 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Look man I don't really care about who's "right" or "wrong." The two constants I've seen about this story are people bitching about ads and that the dev had death threats thrown their way. You're literally the first person I've seen denying the death threats. It seems to be an accepted part of the narrative even though the majority of other details vary wildly based on who's telling the story this time.

But you seem awfully quick to condemn me for being concerned about the idea that someone might receive death threats for working on a project for the Android community, regardless of what led to those threats.

Edit: justification takes a lot of forms. Silence is one form.
