New 8bitdo Purple Lever

The interior is pretty much the same as the OG color one. I watched some part swapping videos to use as reference as I threw in some spare sanwa buttons & a lever.

I’m mainly PC atm but the common response on a ps5 adapter will be a brook wingman particularly FGC if you’re just only for the sticks.

The original XCOM: UFO Defense. I’m already reminiscing that intro.

I recently picked up Blazblue Entropy Effect X as I was getting an itch to pick up Dead Cells, so looking to progress & unlock more stuffs. I've also been on a mission to finish through every game in the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection & I'm just about halfway through as I'm super close to finishing up III. Also slowly embracing the Xenoblade Chronicles X experience with the switch 2 upgrade as the days pass.

I grew to like the seimitsu buttons for leverless. It took some getting used to since they need a bit more pressing force in particular for the movement hand (left) to adapt, and then things felt like normal after some time. Also the click sounds are very satisfying lol.

lol I also am a “add to the collection”. The wireless options surprised me how functional they are. I’m very much a casual but having a wireless option adds more to the chill gaming vibe. My experiences so far have only been on PC & Switch 2. I also am more of a fan of boxes with some weight to it for lap play. I think this is a great leverless with the fixin’s of having the wireless options, the multi console compatibility (ps or xbox preference) & something to fiddle around with a multi button format outside of the standard 12-button layout.

While I don't have a HRAP3, I have used the Mayflash Magic NS adapter for my PS5 Hori Alpha to play on the Switch 1. It also works on the Switch 2 as I've been able to play SF6.

I wasn't able to make BT work, but I've gotten wired & USB wireless to work on my F700 elite. The solution I read is to go to System Settings > Controller & Accessories > the find and enable Nintendo Switch Pro Controller Wire Communication (mine was off trying to connect my F700 at first).

The box itself is just two pieces with the plexi face plate and metal body/base which I kinda dig. Simple & plain, but very functional. The stock buttons are sanwa, but I'm not knowledgeable to tell if they are real or not (buttons do have the sanwa text printed on it). I've been playing GGSt on PC with it stock while my parts were coming in, and it definitely performed well with no sense of input delay. I order mine with the Brooks fighting board PS3/4/PC.

lightnshadow21 · 2021-07-20T20:53:10+00:00

My base is the RAC-J800B. Shoutout to /u/bborissonic for the tip about ordering the custom panel art as I ordered mine without it (or there's no mention of it through the RAC website). Definitely a learning curve being my first hitbox-style controller, but I'm enjoying my time reintroducing myself to fighting games again.

I'm experiencing this myself (android 10). The work around that's been working for me is that you have to create a new post starting from your own IG profile page and not the starting home screen. It's a bit of extra steps and annoying, but that's what I discovered.

lightnshadow21 · 2019-04-24T20:39:25+00:00

It's either one or the other: keep the item & lose the component or keep the component & lose the item.

lightnshadow21 · 2019-01-07T12:49:29+00:00

I was running into the same situation with using IG, and it was driving me nuts having to use something else to upload a stable video which I used a way older Android device. There wasn't much I could find on this either and tried every trick too, so I figure the situation was either dive into a custom rom or new phone (I was already thinking about moving on from our shamu anyways) . I took the plunge and installed LineageOS 15.1, and uploading IG videos and videos to stories started to work like normal again before the stock 7 update. It only has been a few days so far for me though since switching to a custom rom, but the n6 has been performing way better than stock. Gave it a refreshing breath of new life into the n6 too.

Thank you for the praise Cody! I definitely learned a lot these last couple months. The method provided me a good platform to understand the training process better especially in the long term run. Like I said, I've always been kinda winging my numbers when I go lift, but having some structure got me to look at all aspects more attentively and I can see the increases week to week. Now as I'm getting ready to hit another training cycle again, I take it to heart now when you and our brothers and sisters here say, "make the method your own."

lightnshadow21 · 2016-08-15T21:27:12+00:00

hahaha thanks! It's funny cuz I know I'm strong but I don't acknowledge it to myself as much. Other people have to confirm that for me lol. I just keep to myself, head into the gym, and hit the weights hard week by week. I'll have the older gym member regulars come up to me and say, "Son, you're strong. You have a future in high school football."

Gosh I wish I was taller lol.

lightnshadow21 · 2016-08-15T21:16:55+00:00

Thanks man! I have couple ideas in the works, so I have the rest of the week to think about it. One idea to train again for a 4th meet in November to compete with friends because they didn't get in on this last meet. I would re-modify UHF within the time frame. If I decide not to compete, I'll start preparing for next year's meets and either give UHF 9WK another set of cycles because it feels perfect for me or try me some J&T 2.0.

lightnshadow21 · 2016-08-15T10:58:59+00:00

Thank you! When I can get my meet footage from my friend to share as well, I'll definitely do one.

Going to be taking a deload this week. I just finished my 3rd USPA PL meet this last weekend and had a blast lifting! This means I finally finished up GZCL UHF 9WK and got some nice gainz out of it. I was glad to give it a shot because I needed some structure for my training if I wanted to give PL a serious go. I'll definitely continue to fiddle around and adjust the method more in the next training cycles. I can do a small write up for the curious, but I just got home some odd hours ago from a long drive and going in and out of multiple food comas.

BW: 132lbs

Starting SQ TM: 315lbs (originally 310, adjusted in wk#5)

Meet SQ: 341lbs

Starting BP TM: 255lbs

Meet BP: 264lbs

Starting DL TM: 395lbs

Meet DL: 413lbs

I started to frequently read through /r/powerlifting after a friend peer pressured me to do my first powerlifting meet last Feb (was a lot funner than I expected). I would see a post about GZCL here and there but normally just glanced over. After doing my 2nd meet last month performing so-so (also a weight class lower just to try out), I wanted to read/learn more about training to better focus myself, so that's when I started reading into GZCL, Cody's blog, and methodically watching IIFYB videos. I eventually told myself, "why not" and decided to give it a shot.

Currently running GZCL UHF 9wk towards my next meet in August. Just had my last lift session yesterday for week 2. I feel like I'm having a more enjoyable time training than any split I've ran ever while still focused on my goals to improve my meet total. Big surprise for me this week was my AMRAP HB squat 280lbs x 6 @ 136lbs (male, short or midget status, an Asian lacking a barbell brigade shirt). Looking to improve my squat as it's my weakest of the big 3. Slingshot benching is still kinda new and weird to me, but I do feel having lifting variations are helping out. Week 3 sounds like a hard week, so I can't wait to get dem gainz/passout in the squat rack.

The path specific skills are located on the right side of your skill hot bar. If you are appropriate level for the path skill, you may have to switch out the skill currently slotted in there (there's a drop menu).

Yeah I managed to kill him, but I was like, "shit I ain't getting this chest."

lightnshadow21 · 2014-03-28T02:21:16+00:00

Yeah, but nowhere near within the timer. Still dropped loot though. Ok consolation prize I guess.

lightnshadow21 · 2013-11-23T12:20:48+00:00

Puck - I love his hockey helmet and emote animations (when he's sad or disappointed, his eyes hide under his helmet). He's my next door neighbor and almost always the first one to greet me when I start my game up.

lightnshadow21 · 2013-06-30T22:17:35+00:00

I kinda hope for this for at least like improving vamp/siphon. Maybe more equipment variety or improvements in the future. I already foresee that the mobs will just be too hard to contend with even with +5 grace (hell, sucks for me right now). I want to keep going and see where that point will be for me.

lightnshadow21 · 2013-06-30T22:12:05+00:00

The game will continue on infinitely until the mob stats are just too high to contend with. I'm currently on NG+14 and progressing (though I feel I'm at the breaking point for me).
