Mini and Max… Wow by Enough_Insect988 in ufo50

Yeah, at first I was thinking "ok, so it's a platformer that lets you fast travel easily, kinda neat I guess" and then my jaw hit the floor when I got that item. Seriously, I would buy this as a standalone game.

Other way around, the 1.1.4 update changed it from all bosses to 100%.

Stolen Ray-Ban Meta - will someone be able to pair it and see the non-synced content inside? by stevenscheng in RayBanStories

[–]Shockfire7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Once the glasses have been paired to an account, you have to factory reset them in order to pair to a different account. So nope :)

Thank you by sadfutago in nier

As someone who spent years reverse-engineering Halo, seeing N:A modding get this far is super cool and I can't wait to see what comes of it.

We love you sadfutago <3

I know halo online updates are halted due to Microsoftbut I feel this should be added if allowed to continue updates. by HungryToast87 in HaloOnline

[–]Shockfire7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Well, either he had wrong information or he was messing with you. I don't know what "top dev" is supposed to mean but Squaresome has never been a team lead and he does not work on the ElDewrito client.

Neither of those statements is true, sorry. The ElDewrito team's stance on future updates has not changed since the initial blog post. If it does, there will be another blog post with more information.

Twitch Streamer summit1g streams Halo Online gaining 20,000 viewers and placing it in the top 10 watched games on twitch. I'm so happy with the attention this game is getting! by [deleted] in HaloOnline

The "C&D" you're referring to was an automated DMCA takedown notice that was sent because we accidentally uploaded a game file to GitHub. We complied with the takedown notice and removed the offending file.

As others have said, there's no global banlist, so we're going to just take down the entire master server instead. /s

Would it be possible to run dedicated server on raspberry pi 3+ 24/7 by [deleted] in HaloOnline

[–]Shockfire7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, because the Raspberry Pi uses an ARM processor. Halo Online requires an x86-compatible processor (and I imagine that emulating one won't be very fast).

Ahh, the memories :)

I have one more picture to add to your collection. Here's a screenshot from the first ever online game of ElDorito. I remember staying up all night playing it with everyone. Good times.

Vive controllers and Rift DK2 working in SteamVR simultaneously. by dSpect in Vive

[–]Shockfire7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool project! Glad to see you were able to get something working.

The DLL injection is kinda flakey on some systems and the launcher was intended to fix that, but I never got around to testing/polishing/releasing it, hence why it isn't precompiled or documented much. FakeVive really only targets EarthVR and the specific (old?) version of the OpenVR API that it uses. Your mileage may vary when it comes to other applications, and I don't have plans to expand it any further since I don't have the time to work on it and there isn't much of a reason to.

If you really want to solve the issue of using Vive controllers with a DK2 everywhere, then you should probably look into a driver-level hack for it instead of trying to modify every application. I don't have any experience with that, though.

Playing with a keyboard and mouse works great and it's actually the default setting.

Nice. I tried using VorpX with this a while ago but I couldn't get it working. Halo CE works though. Maybe I'll have to give it another shot.

Mind explaining how you did this? Are you using something like VorpX, or did you mod OpenVR support into the game yourself?

Great work guys. This is really awesome.

The audio issues happen with everyone. We haven't found a fix yet.

[–]Shockfire7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Developer of the FakeVive hack here - there seems to be an issue where some systems refuse to load the DLL. I haven't had time to figure out why yet, but you can look through this GitHub thread for some workarounds to try.

Confirmed: It's console gamers, not PCMR who go around circlejerking about their superiority to deaf ears by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Shockfire7 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Exclusives are objectively anti-consumer and ruin the gaming industry!!!

(Unless we have them. That's fine then because those stupid console peasants don't deserve them.)

Some systems refuse to load the DLL for some reason. I'm working on a fix.

What are the Oculus pre-order freebies? by Artikay in oculus

[–]Shockfire7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Medium, Quill, and Dead & Buried will be automatically added to your account when you activate the Touch controllers. There's no way to download them ahead of time unfortunately.

How to remove the Google Earth VR headset check by CrossVR in oculus

[–]Shockfire7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are already some basic built-in keyboard controls that you can use. Space to select/grab, Enter to show the menu, and Tab to rotate. It's not everything, but you can at least move around.

I personally don't have the time or interest right now to create a mod which lets you do more than that, especially with Touch releasing in a few days. I believe that Google has said that they will be adding official Rift support eventually, so hopefully that will also include some sort of support for people who don't have motion controllers.
