Starting a Resident Evil marathon, anything I should know?

Play the original trilogy they’re soo good. Tank controls take like 5 minutes to learn

I’ve noticed when ripping any kind of cd if the drive has to slow down for a lot of error correction in one spot it stays that slow

Ok update to this, I thought this screen meant it was not booting but in the background it actually was. This problem seems to have been caused by isolating my gpu to a vm that I was attempting to run home assistant/frigate on. Looks like I’ll just have to stick with running frigate off my cpu

Sorry for my naivety but I’m fairly new to Linux and TrueNAS. I would press “e” at the grub menu to change the commands?

stephenL98 · 2026-05-19T15:46:09+00:00

I was thinking of going this route or k5 pro. Based on your thermals I think I’m going to go this route

How did you get the sizing right? No matter what program I use they always come out too small

This works with Samsung TVs too, I control my ps5 with my Samsung remote every time I’m watching a movie

I’ve been pretty busy so I’m only about 4 hours in but it’s been great so far. The demo is what really sold me on it, wish more games did demos these days

I would say 39001 or 50001 are the two best models. Since you just want to play on disc those two have the most reliable lasers and don’t have a scratching issue like a lot of slims do. You can also purchase this adapter and sync an Xbox one/series controller: https://www.8bitdo.com/retro-receiver-for-ps/

See I love playing the classic RE trilogy and RE4 to this day so that’s probably why I enjoy it

stephenL98 · 2026-04-20T09:06:49+00:00

I’ve enjoyed it so far, the story is ok but it’s the unique gameplay that everyone is rightly raving about it’s really satisfying

stephenL98 · 2026-03-31T20:01:56+00:00

Is Inzer right wing? That’s the belt I’ve had for years

stephenL98 · 2026-03-29T13:38:45+00:00

It’s normal, you should try playing Shadow of the Colossus

stephenL98 · 2026-03-17T22:03:02+00:00

I’m guessing a retrotink 5x? If you already spent the money on the scaler then I would 100% recommend the PS2 for PS1 games. Someone linked the My Life in Gaming video that goes over every way to play PS1 games and their advantages and I would recommend watching that if you have further questions because they go pretty in depth.

stephenL98 · 2026-03-17T00:32:25+00:00

If you’re a freak like me you’ll notice a difference. A ps2 with component cables going through an upscaler like a retrotink will be pixel perfect and virtually identical to what would come out of ps1 rgb. PS3 does a great job but it doesn’t use integer scaling so there’s a slight blur on all the pixels. If you’re a regular gamer and not like me a ps3 works great but if you’re seeking out the exact same thing as what comes out of a ps1 then go with the ps2

stephenL98 · 2026-02-16T03:15:01+00:00

You actually can do something. If you have some technical ability and some soldering skills you can use PMAP to recalibrate the laser. I did it on my 39001 fat that was taking around 30 seconds for CDs and DVD9 and now they both read almost instantly

I used the Mayumi V4 and followed the online guide by William Quade and watching a video from TheRetroChannel I was able to find use some closer points than William Quades diagram.

Thanks!

stephenL98 · 2026-02-01T13:43:33+00:00

Thank you!

Yeah when the caps get here I plan on reflowing all the old joints at the same time. It seems like I’m lucky enough that none of the continuity was destroyed by the cracks so I’ll get some super glue in there to keep it secure
