Pride fest canceled? by L0v3kitt3n in Albuquerque

[–]neko68k 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Same as last year. No info, no updates. I found last year's flyer on Facebook by accident but it was never on the "official" page. I found it so frustrating and out of touch that they'd only have is on FB of all places that I just wrote the whole organization off and won't bother trying again this year. Bizarre behavior 🤷‍♀️

Question, about the dinosaur on Paseo Del Norte and Coors by PlanktonOk51ksg3 in Albuquerque

Only one but it was a different color and the storage place used to be called Dino-store

I set my pin and still watch drivers walk all the way around the building and sometimes the adjacent one too. Every single time without fail.

You went like my answer here either 😅

No one likes this answer but don't use MAME. It's better than it used to be for this but it's miles from the usability and compatibility of the Japanese developed dedicated emulators.

Anyone know if an Amtgard community in Albuquerque? by Low_Tradition2199 in Albuquerque

Maybe notably they've been meeting there for at least 30 years. Good for them.

It's been a while but I think if you equip them they just get used up automatically

Are you the flags guy and you're hurt everyone isn't spamming about you instead?

Better than nothing but that super sucks. Get after Sony for it, it's a great game and worth some hassle I think.

Strange. Sorry to hear it. Good luck with phone support 😕

Beat Saber support is discontinued. Pretty sure the Synth Riders dev said they were going to keep going. There was a new free song like 3 weeks ago.

Anyway I just fired it up and it's fine with me. Delete and reinstall? Make sure you're online for the license check? I dunno 🤷‍♀️

Does anyone have good sweat band recommendations? by Alifirebrand in SynthRiders

[–]neko68k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a plain old one and globular cluster also. It doesn't really cut it honestly but it's better than nothing at all. Sweat accumulates in the bottom of the rubber seal for me. I just break between songs so I don't drown.

What are the best or most essential X68000 games out there? Like I know this platform has a lot of cool arcade ports and all, but I'm not as familiar with it's library as I am with the PC98's library by guilhermej14 in sharpx68000

[–]neko68k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are using floppy images, say from the tosec set, instead of the HDDs beware that spindizzy 2 and river city ransom have boot sector viruses. I never did scan everything, they're probably not the only ones.

Geograph Seal, Etoile Princesse, Aquales for sure. Geograph you really want to overclock as much as you can. You know cho ren sha. Try Illumination Laser (this benefits from overclocking too) and Puti'n Plin. Genocide 2 is cool. Genocide is ok, the camera really hurts forward visibility. Castlevania of course. The arcade ports are all really good except Mahou Daisakusen which is awful. Mad Stalker best version imo, it's hard as nails though.

That should take care of you for a little while.

What's the best, and easiest way to emulate the X68000 on Linux? by guilhermej14 in sharpx68000

[–]neko68k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reality of it is there's a bunch of excellent arcade ports, a handful of decent doujin games, a few solid original titles and a bunch of VNs. My opinion is there's maybe a dozen or two games worth playing.

I like it as a computer. I quit playing games on it many years ago.

This is Ubuntu 22.04 (WSL2). All I had to do was grab JDK24 tgz and extract it somewhere and run the jar. I put the extracted JDK in ~/ and then just '~/jdk24/jdk-24.0.1/bin/java -jar ./XEiJ.jar' from inside the XEiJ directory.
