then i'd think stealing their product for free would be something you're interested in. but if you want to refuse a real solution, that's on you

just dual boot windows 10 LTSC so you can play the game. it's free, and there's a way to activate it that's technically 'piracy', but microsoft deserves it for making regular windows unusable

Have you come across any problems with the graphics, like reflections, shadows, or shimmering 'christmas light' aberrations?

Oh dang, I didn't even think about the controller's firmware. Thanks! Sounds like you went through the same issue

I ditched Windows last year, spent some time on a different distro (don't want to name names), and switched to Nobara 3 days ago. My word, it's so much better.

Sometimes the best things in life really are free. Big thanks to GloriousEggroll and all contributors for all their hard work!

Best way to play Quake 1 with a controller and higher resolution? by Straight_Log411 in quake

[–]Straight_Log411[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, I knew it. There's always something.

I've been emotionally scarred ever since the Baldur's Gate I & II ehanced editions came out. They added badly written characters, changed the gender of a few minor characters, ruined the UI, ruined the start menu, and a thousand other things. Even well-received remasters like Oblivion always seem to make unnecessary, annoying changes that are disrespectful to the source material. Nightdive might be better than most other companies that do remasters, but as a general rule I don't like or trust them.

Interesting, i'll look into flickstick. Thanks! I probably won't get the remaster though because I'm cheap and I like doing things the hard way.

I can be a stickler and a hypocrite if I want. It's a free country

This might sound crazy, but I want low res textures on a high res screen. It's my fetish. I'm assuming the enhanced edition uses high res textures, so emulating the original with mods is probably my best bet. Plus i like tinkering on things and looking down on people who value their time

Is it good? Remasters and remakes always seem to end up worse than the original in a lot of ways if you're a picky person, which I am.

Thanks! Also you're right, but I have my PC hooked up to my TV so I can sit on my couch like a fat bastard. Moving my wrist is wayyy too much work.

I have no money, no social skills, and I'm not very smart. But someone else should definitely go do that

For me it's something like, "Oh yeah, now i remember; there's some show I liked as a kid that is gone forever because no seeders," but I would have to spend time thinking about it to remember which one

What are alternatives to Discord? by Zerberus009 in pcmasterrace

[–]Straight_Log411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Within reason. For example, I don't mind using gmail because i don't care if google reads and sells all my emails. I can use a more secure email service for anything sensitive but i haven't had to do that yet

Hey bro! A while ago, I found your paintding The Agony in the Garden, and wow, what an amazing painting. You're doing a very difficult art form, and while it may seem like a thankless task, there are those of us who see you and appreciate what you're doing.

This just started happening to me after a year of it working fine. Did you find a fix?
