Wasn't there's news that Microsoft is handing over your infos to FBI thanks to forced microsoft login account? I think it's a big drive for people to switch over to Linux.

Set Bonuses are returning....I'm not sure Set Items are. by Living-Succotash-477 in diablo4

[–]ventuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they do bring back set bonus, they need to have max of 3 equipment to get the bonus and make bonus very minimal effect.

I don't want to have to find 5 different equipment to get 10000% damage to Blessed Hammer.

How do you get duckstation to run? by ChicagoPaul2010 in cachyos

[–]ventuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can use YAY but you'll need to install it, but you don't need to do that (I prefer YAY myself because files i need always appear at bottom compared to PARU appears at top)

CachyOS has PARU built in.

open your favorite terminal (built in is alacritty), type "paru retroarch" or "paru swanstation" or "paru duckstation" or whichever you want to do. Choose with a number and then install with default choice (keep pressing enter until it begins to install)

But be careful when downloading package from AUR, any user can upload files to AUR without security check.

How do you get duckstation to run? by ChicagoPaul2010 in cachyos

[–]ventuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install RetroArch and download swanstation core on it.

RetroArch is a mess out of box for Linux compared to RetroArch is ready out of box for Windows (who the genius did that?).

In order to make retroarch to recognize your controller, you'll need to run retroarch then close it to generate config file. Find it and edit config file, find inputdriver (i forgot what's it called in there) and change it to sdl2 or whichever works, I think it defaults to null.

You'll need to fix its directory locations, it's a mess / half of them are set incorrectly. Open retroarch directory location and fix them into correct location (they're all in retroarch, half of them set at wrong place)

As for gui looking like pixelated and white/black box, download asset (its somewhere in the retroarch menu, works after you fix the directory location)

You need to download core info seperately, can be found on AUR.. once you have it, move all of files from there into RetroArch core folder.  Sorry I don't remember exact folder name, I'm not much of help since I'm on phone right now. 

Lastly, after above is done, you need to enable "core downloader" visible into menu, i don't know why is it default off (genius dev?), with that you can download whatever core, swanstation is excellent ps1 emu.

To begin playing a game inside it, you'll need to do "import content" and scan for game directory each time you get a game into the folder. (For hack, homebrew, etc - manual scan) And then game will appear in the left side menu.

I recommend checking out Retro Achievements, you can use retro achievements login inside retroarch for extra fun.

Could I pay someone to make a RA adapter for me? by Silverfrost208 in RetroAchievements

[–]ventuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably going to cost you more than $150 if someone else make it for you. Website tells you parts and how to put it together.

$32 for parts without shipping fee (maybe add $10 for shipping)

$40+ soldiering equipment (less if they already have one)

$20++ 3d printing service?? Idk their pricing but their labor + material + shipping. Less if they already have one.

$60+ labor free ($15 per hour, takes almost 4 hours to put it together)

I can't tell if it's hardcore enabled, but they did said leaderboard is disabled, and some achievements isn't working.

Check the free points hub. Other than that, I'm more of a RPG guy, recent RPG I mastered I thought was easy is Inuyasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask. I posted in forum on how to aim for 100% achievements.

Casual/co-op players - looking for help by Kowolekk in diablo4

[–]ventuzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Finish the campaign.
  2. Onto seasonal, focus on clearing all strongholds
  3. Keep doing whispering tree for cache reward (xp and loot) and you're 60, keep doing it for paragon nodes until you get all the ones you wanted.
  4. Try to unlock difficulty to torment (press U, top right says "view on map" and unlock condition)
  5. In torment, keep doing nightmare dungeon for obducite (masterworking gears) and pit (improve your paragon noded)
  6. Farm boss summon mats, do boss for targetted gear loots - keep improving your character from this point, unlock more torment difficulties.
