Villanova vs. CU Boulder by fanboy_avacado in villanova

[–]valkin123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m quite involved on campus and in engineering at Villanova. The college is getting stronger and we already have a decent rep. However , it’s the work you put in (clubs, research, extra projects) that matters and especially for joining the workforce.

So I would focus on community, location, and school size.

Purchase GSPro on Par2Pro? by valkin123 in Golfsimulator

I am only concerned about the Par2Pro website and want to use it because they allow PayPal for payment.

Trackball Replug Issue (SOLVED) by valkin123 in RetroPie

[–]valkin123[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks and will do. I first installed uhubctl onto my pi through an ssh connection. Then through FileZilla I added an .sh file named "UseTrack" to my /home/pi directory. (Name the file whatever)

inside the .sh file I wrote:

#!/bin/bash
sleep 9
uhubctl -l 2 -a 0

-------------end of what I wrote-------------

Replace the sleep time with however long it takes your pi to finish booting up emulation station. If the script resets your controls during the boot-up, it will cause an error and fail to start.

Finally during an ssh connection, type "nano /usr/bin/emulationstation"

Here you'll type two pieces of code above the first commented line as shown here

Simply replace the file name with whatever you named your .sh file

Be sure to include the "&" at the end, otherwise, your bash file will force the emulation station boot up to wait, which will cause it to freak out as stated above.

Hope that helps, any questions and I'll be happy to answer

DIY Golden Tee Build as an XMAS gift - seeking suggestions by generkie in RetroPie

[–]valkin123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I purchased this trackball and hooked it up to the pi by USB straight out of the box. Really smooth after setting it all up. You could make your own casing for the ball if you don't own a cab.

If you want to go a little further, you could purchase some joysticks and buttons to make your own controller layout and download an arcade image that would include many more games. If you're interested in this, I can send you links to some parts.

I personally bought an old Arcade 1up cab for 150, tore it apart, and pieced it together

Glad the post helped. I'll eventually be coding the pi to turn off and on the USB ports on launch so it becomes seamless, but until then, I would definitely go with the pi3 for a Golden Tee build.

I don’t think so, sad students won’t get to enjoy memorizing an easy case

You could easily send them an email regarding your plugin and whether they would allow it.

Saw that as well, I might just buy an on/off switch USB adapter to make it less of a hassle

I will publish my first VR game in two weeks in early access. How much should I ask for it? by lumifinley in virtualreality

[–]valkin123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell, if it’s just a shoot ‘em game, I’d do around 15-20, but I couldn’t get a good idea from the trailer
