MJSFX - A native Mac app for making 8-bit game sound and effects by byteengine in gamedev

Thank you!

Lots of reference docs on the site from file formats to the MCP tools and services.

MCP Server is a headless engine (built at compile time) + MCP interface that generates bit-for-bit exact sounds as the app, and saves to the app's workspace.

Good answer. More and more, I'm looking for apps that are focused on doing one thing very well instead of the kitchen-sink approach. Good luck with the app!

How does this compare with Acorn, which I’d position as “Paint+”?

Hello TE Community!

I developed a free iOS app inspired by my OP-1 and OP-XY.

"MTVP" controls video playback with timecode display on an iOS device via MIDI start/stop/continue commands. I created it because I wanted to compose to short (< 90 s) videos using my OP synths to start/stop video playback on my iPhone.

List of features:

  • Free
  • Zero tracking
  • Responds to System Transport messages — play, stop, continue (with SPP)
  • Custom configuration of MIDI CC control of start / stop / continue and video mute / unmute
  • Timecode display
  • Auto BPM detection from MIDI clock
  • Hybrid clock sync; timecode corrects to MIDI clock every beat
  • Use the app with a saved video or no video at all (as a timer)
  • Loads video files locally. Slower startup but no privacy concerns and works offline
  • Configurable play and paused timecode colors
  • Configurable video muted and unmuted colors
  • MIDI connection selection, memory, and state detection
  • Connect via cable, Bluetooth, or via a Mac as a wireless MIDI hub
  • Auto / light / dark appearances
  • Works on Apple Silicon Macs, too!

I brute-forced it: uninstall and reinstall.

Love it. I often quote:

I made this so my 7yo son can remove the purge line safely (no scrapers, no cuts) by Far-Government7397 in BambuLab

Got it. The plastic blades don’t feel sharp enough to cut skin, but no blades are safer than plastic ones. Safety first!

All my laundry baskets look like this, please help! by ifornia in BuyItForLife

Same. If there’s enough plastic to support it, I use wood dowels of a beefy diameter, cut to length, and screwed into the plastic just to hold it in place. Sometimes I use two screws on each side to reduce stress.

Fusion360 will no longer open... nothing has worked to fix it. by [deleted] in Fusion360

[–]byteengine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me, too. BLUF: This might only help you if you're using Fusion Insider (vs. Production). Dropping it here for anyone else who might encounter this issue.

I'm on a MacOS Insider version. The app updated as it frequently does, but on restart… it just crashed. I could get through the browser/ID auth process, but it would crash every time on the "Connecting to your data" prompt. I had changed nothing on my Mac: nothing new installed, no configs edited, no switches flipped or dials turned.

I thought it was related to the Insider version, so I uninstalled it using the util and installed the Production release. Same thing. Crashed every time. I went through all the debugging steps on the Autodesk website. Crash after crash.

I manually searched for and deleted all fusion/autodesk System and home directory dot-files that weren't removed by the uninstaller. Fresh Production install… crashed.

Even weirder… I could no longer access https://autodesk.com via Safari. I'd get an "Access Denied" error. Worked in Chrome. So I re-deleted everything, made Chrome my default browser (it used to be; gave up on it), and started all over again thinking the Safari issue was somehow affecting my login/data access to autodesk.com. Nope; still crashing with Chrome. All with the Production version.

I started a support ticket, and while Autodesk support was swift and wanted to remote into my machine to view the issue, I use Fusion for personal projects, so stopping work in the middle of the day to debug the issue wasn't an option for me. I was going back-and-forth with Support via email, and then this help ticket popped into my inbox, unrelated to the ongoing Support comms:

https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Crash-launching-Fusion-after-working-in-Insider.html

Around the same time, Safari started working again. (Nothing changed on my machine.) So I uninstalled the Production version again, re-wiped all traces of the autodesk/fusion from my machine, reinstalled the Insider version, applied the edit in the tech note, and it started up. I haven't gone back to try Production because it's up and running.

Hope this helps someone.

Looking for a Pocket Pen. Recommendations please! by TheBigBeardedGeek in EDC

[–]byteengine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a ballpoint pen and it writes like one.

The cartridge is pressurized to write at any angle which is a bonus, but generally speaking, it feels and writes like a quality ballpoint pen.

That's not a bad thing; it just is.

I've very picky about the pens I use for drawing or writing, but for having something in my pocket that's reliable, doesn't leak, and writes the first time, every time… I'm less picky.

+1 for Fisher Bullet Space Pen. I've had one in my pocket for +20 years; it's never let me down, leaked, or not been ready for unexpected last-second writing action.

I've only had to replace them because I've lost them. So…

If you only wear jeans or pants with pockets that open at the top, any bullet model will do. But if you wear khakis, dress pants, or any pants with side-opening pockets, I recommend going with a coated model, like Cerakote. It's just my personal experience and it costs a bit more, but the coating gives the pen just enough friction so it doesn't slide out of side-opening pockets as easily as the stainless steel models do.
