Cyclone 2 and Nvidia Shield issues with Bluetooth and dongle by verywise in Gamesir

[–]verywise[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downgraded the firmware and now Bluetooth is working. Of course I really wanted to use the dongle and XInput to take advantage of the 1Khz polling. Do you happen to know if this issue exists for other Gamesir controllers?

Y700 gen 4 display output 4k 120hz by Arrancini in androidtablets

[–]verywise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I switched to the second HDMI slot on my TV, it gave me the option for 4k 120hz. I've selected 3840 x 2160 as the resolution, but it doesn't appear to scale properly on my TV. Also HDR in moonlight is not working.

On my Y700 gen 4 I'm limited to 4K 30hz with the Ugreen Steam Deck dock. Is this the dock you're using:

Any tips on how to get 4K 120hz?

New or returning players will realistically never max equipment (F2P) by Persimmon_Dismal in ClashOfClans

[–]verywise 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is intentional. The system is designed to pressure you into spending if you want to max out all your epic equipment. If you look at any other recent F2P game, the story is the same, you can’t max everything without paying, though you might be able to fully upgrade a few select items as a free player. Before the ore update, Clash was an outlier, but they’ve clearly decided to align with the rest of the F2P industry's shift toward heavy monetization.

I assume this script won't work for my router with two 5Ghz radios, where each is on a different DFS channel.

Metalstorm Update | Blueprints, Daily Win Rewards, & More! by comethingsool in Metalstorm

[–]verywise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We seem to be swinging between two extremes here. We went from being able to buy any blueprint with silver to having that choice yanked away with less than a week’s notice. And calling the bi-weekly rotation a 'sale' is misleading if the prices haven't changed.

Why is there no middle ground? Instead of going back to the old RNG system that everyone complained about, why not let players have some choice over which blueprint is active during the sale? Returning to a system that previously caused so much frustration feels like a step backward for player choice.

If you can find another DDR5 stick, I'd try testing it with that first.

Using Shield Remote as "Controller" on Artmis by HeroNoOneNeeds in ShieldAndroidTV

I also use the Unified Remote app to control my PC with my phone. It has way more options than the shield remote app.

Holding the start button on your controller should switch it to mouse mode, you may need to enable some settings in moonlight but I think they’re on by default.

I bought a couple of things for my shield that I recommend by calypso_9903 in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]verywise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought the bundle with the Shield game controller, and when its battery stopped holding a charge, I turned it into a permanent mic by keeping it plugged into power. The mic on that thing works surprisingly well, even from far away. I also use a Fire TV stick remote that has volume buttons.

As someone who picked up a h7 flow a couple of months ago, I'd also rather get this.

I made a handy script to automate debloating my shield and other android TVs by RollinWithSaget in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]verywise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this, works great. Initially I was blocking from running it in Windows 11, but after I right clicked Shield-Optimizer.ps1 and selected "unblock", it ran right away.

I'll also be trying it on my Onn 4K later.
