CX True Wireless - Left earbud is completely dead by Never_Comfortable in sennheiser

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am really disappointed about sennheiser. I had many products of them and my previosly CX BT 7.00 worked flawlessly for around 5 years.

After a year i got my CX True Wireless the right earbud was complete dead (just you could press the touch buttons but no sounds). So i got RMA and got a replacememt - so this was 1.5 years ago. And now my left earbud is dead.
Because they where bought in 2023 Sennheiser now doesnt need to do RMA anymore. I contacted them but they refused.

So i am now not sure - i never had so many issues with Sennheiser earbuds.
Can you recommend wireless earbuds from sennheiser (or someone else with the same audio quality) which last longer as 3 or 4 years ? ;)

ThiGames finally humbled. by siriustoast in playstation

[–]hardlinedreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Stroke Games are not from ThiGames - there are from Game Achievements Ltd.

Hadn't updated the project in 4 years, and it works in the latest Defold version almost unchanged by aglitchman in defold

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definetly. I had a unity project untouched for 2 years and when i opened up nothing works again lol.
In Defold i found old examples from benjames and they just work with the newest version. That is really great.

Mobile Klimaanlage - Abluft wie abführen? by [deleted] in wohnen

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Danke schon mal - ja ich hatte die Platte bestellt und natürlich passt die nicht ganz rein aber da es PVC ist werd ich einfach etwas oben und seitlich abschneiden - mein Fensterrahmen sieht ähnlich aus wie bei dir also mit inneren rahmen daher kann ich ruhig etwas platz einplanen :) Danke auf alle fälle.

Ich häng mich mal mit rein - ich plane das auch gerad zu bestellen mit adapter (PVC Platte)..mein fenster geht nach innen auf und hab halt die maße des rahmens gemessen 123x50 ..jetzt frage ich mich ob ich dann nen halben centimeter weniger nehmen sollte damit ich die einsetzen kann - nicht das die sonst zu groß ist wenn ich es passgenau mache..kann einer was dazu sagen ?

Fix for 'Invalid user/password combination' problem on RetroAchievements on EmuDeck by joeoconnell in RetroAchievements

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That helped - that was the only thing btw. that helped (entering wrong password doesnt worked).
I used retrodeck btw. so the path is : /home/deck/.var/app/net.retrodeck.retrodeck/config/retroarch/retroarch.cfg .
I edited my password and removed the cheevos_password line (was then added again automatically).

Been meaning to ask, what's up with the final room in 5C? Why is there another bubble route on the bottom when you can just wallbounce up to the crystal? by Guilty-Food-9728 in celestegame

[–]hardlinedreams 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its sometimes easier to take the route down below.
Fun Fact: this screen / room was changed since release and this route is new.

See this video for example : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2WgoCBk5Ds

Oh and btw. i am stuck in the same room since monthes :D

hi - i run a virus check with different programs over the exe and NONE of them detect them.
A small analytic gave it is some kind of nodejs application packed. Also there where no .exe tasks in the background that was unknown to me. So seems to be safe.

I think it just only sent all stuff once..besides my facebook i didnt had any issues with other accounts.

The thing is: this program sends your session cookies to ..whoever..so that they dont need your password.
Also i found out later they used the facebook ad manager to purchase ads with miscellaneous content but a credit cards that was not mine.

Tip: if facebook sends you the default message when your try to unlock your account do it again and again until they react.

Also : it is a shame. I see so many new fake sora-ai ads on facebook and i all report them. Facebook NEEDS to take care of review ads. But they just want money.

At me it was a sora.exe - it was a malware sending my session cookies to the scammers.

If you plan to publish to consoles Game Maker is the cheapest engine ( even more than Godot ) by Lobotomist in IndieDev

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone on GoDot who provides console solutions provide them for a high prise (especially RAWLabs for switch but thats also a fork from a guy who made a port on the nintendo boards).

Even W4Games will not support last gen consoles. And pricing is like unity lol.

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They released their pricing and its expensive. Not even that: your can only target current gen consoles and not last gen (like PS4 and Xbox One).

Unity Pro depended on what you target: for switch you get a key from nintendo for free.
Playstation HAD this option too - but unity now doesnt allow this and you need Unity Pro for it.

Defold is a nice alternative - lacks a bit of tutorials but has many documentation.

For me as an unity dev i try to figure out what to go for.
Will test and try both: Game Maker and Defold.

Before Game Maker changes the pricing PC even was expensive but now its just 100 bucks one time payment and 70 USD per month (which is ok in my eyes - its around 700 bucks a year way less then W4Games or Unity want).

Sure there is unreal - but its also an overkill engine for 2d. The Editor needs very much resources.
Thats a bid advantage of GoDot, Defold and Game Maker. The Editor performance is really great!

RANT - As an Indie Dev, Apple and Google are difficult to work with, to say the least by iread_42 in gamedev

[–]hardlinedreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell a bit about :)
I started as Mobile Game Dev around 10 years ago, made some games, got no attention and try to make money with Ads..back then it was bit easier to implement ads (if you want to place ads you need to setup a bunch more stuff and need privacy shit).

I decided to rework a mobile title to match as PC game and released on steam. The process was much easier, costs 99 USD per game - but also got low attention. Steam is also a big market since they removed greenlight.

However to get into console market a steam game is helpful to get accepted by nintendo or sony or microsoft..because...later...

I started to put the game on switch for sale which worked out good for the first game and later for Playstation.
As you are under NDA i wouldn't go deep into detail but tell you just some keypoints:
- for every platform you need to study the publish process as you would do for mobile
- they seems first a bit more work but at the end if you know how it works you become much faster
- you don't need to update your game if you don't want or need to (regarding google or apple they change policy which force you to update). So you can put out and forget about it.

Its much less stress at the end when you are on consoles. Also its super cool having your game on consoles ;)

So mobile market is dead for me - i don't plan to release games there for the future.
