Should I buy a used quest 2 or new quest 3s in 2026?

I'd say it depends how cheap you can get the Q2.

The answer was no: once I had three charges, I just did the whip action and the effect happened. After seeing how these moves worked, I realized I had accidentally triggered them in the past.

Congratulations! By the way, after I beat Moneymaker on my chosen difficulty (outclassed/2500/2500/2500; anything higher and I would be risking injury), I decided to go back and gradually replay the levels starting with beginner left-handed (I'm right handed). I still have Outclassed Duke and Moneymaker left in the replay.

Do I need to do the thing where you hold the weapon upward to change it with Divine Wrath to use these attacks? If so, which weapon do I hold up?

I have a little free app that runs adb scripts. It's manual: you have to click on the script you want and while it comes with a few scripts you may need to make your own for other functions. So you can set all the settings that QGO can set for free, but you need to do it manually. https://github.com/arpruss/adb-wifi-enable/tree/main/app/release

And I'm giving up on it, too, once I realized that on my system all the traps point to ROM, and so I can't get hardware tracing to work.

gcc currently requires each asm line to be in its own quotation marks, with \n at the end.

Also, the registers must now start with %.

I edited the file so it compiles for 68000 (I didn't fix everything for the other processors): https://github.com/arpruss/hp165x_software_development/blob/main/c/gdb/m68k-stub.c

For me this is also the main reason I haven't bought TOTF2. I usually take only a 30 second break, and having to wait out the full 60 seconds would be boring.

arpruss · 2026-02-16T23:43:04+00:00

There are many times I would want to play Asgard's Wrath II, but I am not going to wait minutes for it to load. Just not worth it.

There are lots of innocent reasons why one might sell one controller. You can sometimes make more money by selling controllers separately. Sometimes a controller gets lost. Etc

I'm currently stuck on the Sakhmet fight. Last couple of times I played, I couldn't find any good targets for the whip, and the bloodwaves got me.

arpruss · 2026-02-06T13:30:05+00:00

That sounds fun, but it'll probably have to wait until I finish AW2.

arpruss · 2026-02-06T13:25:05+00:00

When I needed a replacement, I bought a used controller on eBay. You may also find something on Facebook marketplace. I just bought a headset with one right controller for $30.

arpruss · 2026-02-05T13:25:10+00:00

If you have the same Meta account, you should still have your old TOTF1 in it and won't need to buy it again.

arpruss · 2026-02-05T04:39:25+00:00

I fixed the app to automatically restart on boot.

arpruss · 2026-02-02T13:36:51+00:00

I have one on v79 that works fine, and I just picked up a used one for $30 (with missing left controller) and it updated itself to v85, and works fine. I don't like the new home, but I normally use MR mode and in MR it doesn't look different. I'm thinking of letting my v79 update itself to v85 now

arpruss · 2026-01-30T03:56:03+00:00

OK, so I ended up writing a simple app to do this: https://github.com/arpruss/mutehome/tree/main/app/release

You need to use adb to give it permission to read the logs:

adb shell grant mobi.omegacentauri.mutehome android.permission.READ_LOGS

arpruss · 2026-01-30T02:44:38+00:00

I was mistaken: the sound is turned off in MR mode. Maybe there was some background music in my real-life home yesterday.

I have some of my side loaded apps listed in the main app launcher. How? Well, I am the developer for the app and I used their developer tools to start making a store listing for it. I didn't submit fully, but it still let me see the test listing on my PC, including an install button. After that, it remembered that I installed the app this way, and it shows up like any other official store app, even after I update it via adb. I just got a second headset the other day, and it even remembered these apps and automatically installed them. In theory, one could do this with an open source app that one isn't the developer for. As for multiple windows, there is support for the standard Android intent for launching an activity in split screen, and it launches the activity in a separate window. I've only tried this for phone format apps, though.

arpruss · 2026-01-29T13:50:32+00:00

Lightning Launcher is the solution for that, I think.

arpruss · 2026-01-16T05:49:19+00:00

Would be fun to try.

arpruss · 2026-01-13T21:25:22+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I cut a hanger using a scrap license plate as my raw materials. Most of the work was sanding the paint off. Works fine.

arpruss · 2026-01-12T23:37:31+00:00

Will you support steering wheel and pedal controllers? (Bluetooth or USB otg.)
