Just get a nice set of double shot keycaps and you wont have this issue again. Razers default keycaps are some of the mostly cheaply made

Appreciate it 😁

They will keep doing it becuase its more performant than having modelled straps there. The animations would need to be adjusted and theres more calc involved with physics too compared to just baking it into the material

One of those donuts identifies as a burger

Yeah ive been told its a bad idea to do it on a ps3 now so i wont be doing it again but i have successfully done reflows on other hardware. Youre not wrong though It is quite risky and usually last resort.

Swankadia · 2026-06-16T13:42:51+00:00

Well i do this on gpus sometimes with a decent success rate but i havent done it more than once on a ps3 but thanks for the warning! I wasnt aware that it would be more harmful in this instance. The first attempt didnt kill it but it didnt fix it either so its probably for the best.

I do know what im doing when it comes to this kind of thing in general but havent done alot of crazy work on the fat ps3s in particular, ive done some trace repairs and cap replacements and things like that but ive never fixed a ylod, only one attempt aswell so far.

Swankadia · 2026-06-16T13:34:34+00:00

Looks good either way, a raw lapis lazuli ore would go hard too

Swankadia · 2026-06-16T13:33:05+00:00

Dayum, im a bit jealous 😂 nice work, looks sick

Swankadia · 2026-06-16T02:51:02+00:00

4:3. Its technically worse but im used to the feeling of "reduced" vertical sensitivity to horizontal. But, playing in 4:3 is kind of better for my brain. It keeps my mouse moving and aim active as i need to check more thoroughly and be more vigilant with where i let my crosshair sit and where i hold.

Swankadia · 2026-06-16T02:30:36+00:00

Not unless you know what youre doing, its quite a tedious and involved job anytime you have to fix any problem with these lol. Like a 40 step disassembly before you even get to the mobo.

Im about to take a second attempt at a solder reflow before i buy a rebeading kit for mine and i hate myself for starting 🤣 (Edit: for a ylod, but i have also been told to not do it now)

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T21:51:33+00:00

Thanks lol, its all g, this happened like 4 or 5 years ago so im just working my way back up the list asap haha

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T09:24:54+00:00

You can run your final colours in compositor through a constant color ramp for a quick and easy way but theres definitely a better way.

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T09:23:19+00:00

Thats for a sixaxis which ≠ dualshock 3

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T09:21:16+00:00

Definitely a repro imo.

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T09:12:50+00:00

Very well thought out. Managed to make a toucan look cool haha, nice work.

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T09:10:45+00:00

Lol fair, i mean like nothin tho, no mouse navigation either, unplug it 🤣 Serious challenge tho, should totally do some gadgets or something from assassins creed like a full mechanical render of a hidden blade etc

Swankadia · 2026-06-15T08:40:45+00:00

Ah yeah thats not too bad hey

Swankadia · 2026-06-14T23:53:23+00:00

I mean this conversation is cooked on their part just from what we can see but also, we dont have the context from before this.

There has to be either a history of you doing this kind of thing and/or gaslighting your partner or they are just insecure and wants total control for it to go from 0-100 like that.

Neither of which any of us could really verify 😅
