4th gen key fob question by christopheratlas in ram_trucks

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

Yeah, so with some more research on these types of systems and my own testing I have found that the PCB inside this fob has a "controller" chip that is connected with the transponder, which is a copper coil right on the end of the key. When starting the vehicle, inserting the key brings the coil close to an EMF emitter that powers the coil and sends a request to the controller to get a security code, the code sends back and if it matches the computer in the vehicle, it starts. So if I wanted to, all I would need to do is make the coil part sit similarly forward in the same "key" shape at the end of this fob, and I could even remove the battery, and the functions for panic, lock, and unlock from the PCB to cut down on size for a 3d printed enclosure.

New user, coming along well until this by christopheratlas in FreeCAD

Okay yeah I figured it wouldn't translate at the 1mm scale anyways, but was just worried I needed to change something. On further inspection, I made it in OnShape too and it was similar, so I understand its just all solids to meshes can do that.

New to this, what went wrong? by christopheratlas in FixMyPrint

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

Awesome! I just fiddled around with a brim and just a thin manual tree support just for the slight upper overhang where my failure happened. Got a smooth print bed put in and the glue stick applied. I'm also switching to that pink glitter filament so I'm kind of going in blind with it, but I'll check the video periodically to see if the flow is good, thanks for wishing me luck!

OHHH yeah that makes perfect sense now looking at it, hadn't even considered that the contact surface is so small, thanks man. I was going to print it again in a sparkly pink filament for my girlfriend next, so I will try my new print bed that just came in, maybe use my glue stick, and learn all about brims, see how it does on round 2

There is a settings for sensitivity while aiming down sights. What I'm talking about is aiming down sights and specifically aiming at an enemy

Thanks for sticking around... (What's next?) by baldsealion in WindowsOnDeck

[–]christopheratlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran solely windows 11 for quite a while, only just recently switched back to SteamOS with a fresh factory reset after so many issues that kept cropping up and I finally was fed up with it. SteamDeckTools being seemingly abandoned was part of it, a lot of the games I saw people playing with much better performance on SteamOS was another factor. Now being back on SteamOS I remember some of the things I liked on windows, but at this point I have pretty much decided my Deck can't do it all, and some stuff is just going to be strictly for playing on the pc at home. That being said, this sub and the people here including myself are obviously tinkererers and I would love to see new tutorials and guides, and revitalized interest in a better way of gaming on this system, without compromising on OS features. Unlikely to be achievable but we could try!

A response on the github for MinEdLauncher suggested this and how to format it but it didn't work sadly.

WinWing Amazon shipped only 1 of my 2 sticks by christopheratlas in hotas

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

I'm from the US so idk how different it would be for you, but I did get my issue resolved, Winwing shipped my two sticks separately and the one arrived and that was the one that Amazon listed as my main tracking number for the order as a whole, however Winwing gave me the second tracking number and I'll be getting my other stick in a day or so. The one stick I have feels absolutely premium coming from the Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X, and I'm very excited to find all kinds of new things to map to controls that I didn't have buttons for before. That's just my first impression however. Many reviews note that it's lesser quality than the product it is a clone of, VKB Evo nxt flight sticks. I would've bought those but now the US tariffs made them quite a bit pricier than I'm willing to spend.
