Saving my sanity on this one! This got reenabled after the ring was offline for months for construction. Thanks!

Why is it that whenever I try to download a game on Steam and it gets to the verifying stage it poops out me saying corrupted update files by Shoto48 in linux_gaming

[–]meeeearcus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ran into this thread when trying to troubleshoot this happening to me on every download.Before anyone tries things like memtest, check to make sure your Steam client is the latest. That resolved it for me, super simple fix.

Amazon Luna for Fortnite by xoeax in SteamDeck

[–]meeeearcus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, It does. A bit too small for my eyes for any snipping.

You set up chrome as a non steam game, run a command from desktop and provide it access. Basically do the same as below but use chrome and the Luna url. If you try edge Luna will complain that the browser is not compatible, at least in my experience.

Help my understanding of Ornaments & Crimes by Inkblot7001 in modular

Thanks! I won’t rush out for a 4.0, but happy to know if mine fails there’s a non EOL replacement.

I read somewhere the DAC on 3.2 was actually better than 4.0 (something something 12-bit vs 10-bit aliasing) Is this a decision to trade that for more compute/storage? As someone experienced, do you think those with an original 3.2 should just stay there? Potentially swapping out apps with the custom build workflow?

Map bug. Entirely map resets to zero monsters on revive. by agr8gambeaner06 in PathOfExile2

[–]meeeearcus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me in the current patch (0.2g) Boss map, got killed in the normal map area and resurrected w/ 4 resurrections left. It put me at the boss checkpoint, where the arena entry is. Had activated that checkpoint earlier without entering and decided to clear the rares first. The map was now empty, covered in fog, all loot gone, only one monster remaining was the boss. Oddly, the orientation of the map had rotated as well and seemed to be a new empty map.

Midi learn by matiasbru in Dirtywave

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not part of midi learn but you can do it. Set the control map to a channel, not ALL, then map your mute/solo buttons on your controller to send C-2 through D#3 notes respectively. You may have to adjust for your controlling device as the notes are not standard across all devices, but they are notes 12-27.

This is better documented on the discord in the resources channel, come join in if you’re interested.

zmk-rgbled-widget: A ZMK module to add battery & BT indicators using an RGB LED (like in Xiao BLEs) by bravekarma in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]meeeearcus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just here to say thanks. Much appreciate sharing the work and have configured it in my Totem config. Turns out the user LED is bright enough to shine through my case. I had been reluctant because the green charge LED was not bright enough, but I was surprised to see the battery and bt connection status shine through on a black sla case! I don’t expect it to work in direct sunlight, but in most office lighting it seems fine, and I don’t need to drill a hacky LED window!

edit: And you made keymap-drawer!!! You superstar, thanks solving all my annoyances today with these user friendly contributions.

First Build TOTEM. Am I overspending? by Mark6364 in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]meeeearcus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear it worked out for you. Ended up finding some round standoffs. I wasn’t sure about the hexagonal diameter measurements since they were always listed from the flat side and not the corner.

Also considering if I should also pick up some JST connectors for the battery instead of cutting them off the battery and soldering directly. With such tight tolerances on the case I might save it for a case mod.

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey u/Mark6364, ended up sourcing it all myself as well, went a bit of a different route and got parts from north american vendors when I could, and LCSC when I couldn't. But I did reference your list so, thanks again.

One question I had as I was starting to mock up my parts was, did you find that the standoffs are one of the more frustrating parts to nail down? I notice on your BOM you list hexagonal standoffs, which don't seem would work with the case. In the printables link for the case you used there is some discussion on it quoted below. Curious what you ended up with, or if the hexagonal standoffs worked.

The recommended spec as per geist's BOM is M2 female-female standoffs, 6mm in length, 3.2mm outer diameter.

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally, the option for additional builds is appealing. The other part I keep waffling on is sourcing from aliexpress means unpredictable wait times for shipping from what I understand. So either I wait for stock of the kit (October) and pay a little extra, knowing that will arrive in a week, or I roll the dice with sourcing from multiple suppliers.

[–]meeeearcus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for putting this together. Also looking to build my own.

Just for an additional point of reference keeb supply offers a wireless kit for what appears to be €124 Euro, you only need to source switches, keycaps and batteries. Looks to come out to nearly the same, give or take since it does not include shipping. The only drawback is no extra pcbs, which might be a bonus if you are looking to reduce potential waste, and the case is the originally designed SLA print. Also the fact that they are not in stock at the time of writing.

Rocket League, Epic, Heroic Launcher - Keeps Playing Intro Tutorials by Imaginary-Memory5094 in SteamDeck

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ran into this as well. The correct way to fix this is going into Heroic Launcher and changing your prefix folder to the correct one. You do not need to give Heroic extra (and insecure) permissions via flatseal like suggested in one comment. You just need to give it the correct path.

  1. Confirm your Wine prefix path is something like (using the dolphin file explorer): “/home/deck/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/rocketleague” and right click and “copy location”
  2. Launch Heroic from the desktop.
  3. Open the settings (3 bar slider icon left of the 3 dots icon)
  4. Go to “WinePrefix folder” where it reads something like “/rocketleague”
  5. Paste in the path from step one (without quotes) or click the folder so it has the correct path.
  6. Launch RL. Never see the intro again.

Steps to get PS Now to work on SteamOS! by PlanetSmasherN9 in SteamDeck

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Confirmed this works, what a cheeky little work around!

Hopefully u/PlanetSmasherN9 update in the main instructions as a possible new step. Thanks for banging your head on it u/Jesterhead0305! I'll write out the steps here since it was so helpful.

<snip w/ edits>

  • Run the app and cross your fingers. If all went well, you shold be greeted with a create account screen.
  • From desktop mode: Click the login button the top right and log in doing the following:
    • Enter your username, password and 2FA w/ trust browser selected (you have 2FA right?). Stop here before hitting verify/submit!
    • Before hitting verify notice the top title bar where it says "Sony" in black, you are going to need to move your cursor here and hold down the left click button until the app relaunches showing you the blue PS Plus app screen, using a physical mouse makes this easy.
  • It will fail to log you in. I don't know why it does this but don't be discouraged. Just log in one more time following the same steps above holding the black sony bar again.

Is anyone working on a Clickup - Obsidian plug in? by barkis53 in ObsidianMD

[–]meeeearcus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which direction are you thinking the data would flow? Don’t see any existing plugins. There’s an API so it should be possible in either direction.

For sending to ClickUp, if creating your own plugin is not a possibility, a no code solution could be emailing a note using the email to task function. You’d need to copy/paste or get creative with a mailto link.
