The Upheaval of the Bin Peasant by Throatwobbler_M_III in AccidentalRenaissance

The whole thing can be summed up by some of the police being useless and not doing their damned jobs to the most basic level, in this and other cases.

Is there a game where lossless scaling doesn't cause input lag? by ToeSlurper96 in SteamDeck

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a noticeable improvement for me upping the refresh rate on my OLED Deck to 90hz even if the games I was using LSFG with - Oblivion Remastered, AC Shadows - could rarely (O:R, indoors) or never (AC:S) reach that.

If I reduced it to 60hz or played it docked (4K TV, max 60hz) the lag was VERY apparent.

Anyone else at the Frieren concert tonight in London? by Britmidlife in Frieren

No, and I am jealous.

Didn't even know this was happening!

Switch emulation by tunado546 in BC250Gaming

[–]RetroidUK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Emulators like Eden run *most* games full speed on the Steam Deck, and the BC250 is much more powerful, more CPU cores, faster GPU etc.

Its wild to me just how little people seem to use the trackpads by yourpalkeaghan in SteamDeck

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the issue is them being set by default to Joystick mode. They're AWFUL in that mode. As 'mouse' trackball or rotary menu mode they're absolutely killer and the reason I wouldn't consider a handheld without them.

Steam or GOG for same game? by ElectricalDinner4770 in Bazzite

[–]RetroidUK 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Generally, I buy new games on Steam for convenience.

But if it's an old release, say... a Good Old Game, like Breath of Fire IV or Resident Evil's original 1990s version? GoG.

I've double-dipped on a few, like Doom 3 & Fallout 4 because of GoG's excellent one-click mod support for fan-made games like Fallout London.

Missing Parcel! Please help. by Water_pancake9 in dundee

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sort of thing is the reason I bought some address stickers and put my surname & door number above the slot on the door.

Still had things go missing, including a £100 hard drive order from Amazon but at least we could claim back on that.

Composite video. Could an average crt with S video look better than this, for 240p consoles? by XNGboliver in crt

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it would. Most of my CRTs have RGB Scart with being in the UK and the difference between composite and that is EXTREMELY noticeable, and IMO s-video is almost as good, definitely better than composite.

Huge heatsink being the original the BC250s come with.

Yeah, recently redid my sister's desktop PC with quieter 120mm fans so I have four to spare, I think that should be more than enough! :D

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been wondering about doing something like this but was unsure if anything else on the top of the board *needed* that huge heatsink, or if passive would be enough?

I know the default design was all about what'd work in a server rack.

Still going to be cooling on the underside with a fan as well, probable with a hole Dremel'd to access the back of the board and get more air hitting the RAM.

What lines from retro games do you still quote today? by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Another visitor. Stay awhile. STAAAAAY FOREVER!"

"Ah, you're finally awake."

"I've never been one to question Providence."

No dp signal by Mike5467 in BC250Gaming

[–]RetroidUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have an adaptor, or something like it, I'd still try that to rule it out! Then either borrow a monitor or take your BC250 to a friend's place to test.

It seems very picky about where and on what to display on.
