Recently updated my destructibles C# plugin for anyone who's interested, it makes it easy to convert shard scenes made with blenders fracture into packed scenes of rigid bodies + scaling, position and rotating them. They can be pre-generated before into a packed scene or generated during runtime with custom fade effects as well.

When the fuck did a mobile hotspot become something you have to pay extra for?
  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 100%

    If you have an Android download pdanet which lets you hotspot count as phone data. Also if you get a small hotspot but unlimited phone data you can turn it on and set the TTL or connecting devices to 65 (I think look it up) and it will think it's the phone connecting. Happy pirating

    I found a large amount of the developer / programming reddits died, so I noticed a large difference but a lot of other subs there has been no change so it depends on what you are in.

    Accessibility, I find a lot of things still have issues on fediverse (especially the mobile app scene). Although I am atleast well under 30 if that helps break the stereotype haha.

    It seems op wants to have areas that can't be reached not have colliders for performance, but still wants his bullets to be able to register hitting them for placing a decal on the collision.

    It's really again just a giant douche vs a turd sandwich, both cards are shit value. 6700x is near the same price new sometimes cheaper on sale and crushes them, i understand Nvidia doing this since their cards have a monopoly but why amd would follow such rediculously high price to performance is beyond me when their ai scene is non existent so they don't sell many sever GPUs and opencl is shit compared to cuda, meaning their primary target for these releases is consumers. They do have a monopoly imo on apus however, but that's a different category imo.

    Hmm, you don't think it would be off topic? Technically the pineapple version of early access could kinda be considered piracy but I'm not sure that would qualify it for the piracy sub

  • Yuzu Toolbox (previously known as PineappleEA-GUI) is an all in one app for installing Yuzu-EA, managing saves and shader caches, and mod management. The app is entirely open source and I just released it on [Itch ](https://zachar3.itch.io/yuzutoolbox)as well! **What's new?** The primary focus of this release was bug fixes + a new drop down error viewer for increased accessibility and quality of life. The change also re-adds the web-scraped version grabber for instances when the user has run out of Github API requests. The largest change however, is the branding. I decided to change the name and artwork for everything to better reflect the apps capabilities and increase the aesthetic qualities. I would reccommend installing the tool through Itch as at time of writing due to poor internet I am still struggling to upload the binaries on Github and Itch has a built in updater; but if you would like to contribute or report a bug the source is here:https://github.com/ZachAR3/YuzuToolbox **Features:** - Cross platform (Windows and Linux) - updating with overwrites of previous versions - Simple management tools such as clearing shader caches / install directory - Shortcut creation and automatic unpacking for windows - Basic backup tool (allows save directory to be duplicated into another directory and then restored when desired) - Mod management features (downloading, installing and updating mods from a variety of sources; + ability to uninstall and detect manually installed mods) Current mod sources: - Yuzu wiki - Bananamods - ZeldaTOTK Holo Github repo (P.S) I am looking at adding the ability to download an update mainline Yuzu as well, but I would like to first see if that's something the community is interested in, so if you are please let me know. I am largely unsure due to the popularity of the flatpak and official repo versions on linux and the auto-updater on windows. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/21f17ef3-1001-4d9a-b0d5-719065b07516.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/1f3b26c3-4a34-4fd2-9eba-1ced2134c665.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/049769e9-184a-4bb7-973d-0bf7613e45e9.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8990ebe3-d9cb-4eac-9837-b088c2b8e402.png)

    Yuzu Toolbox (previously known as PineappleEA-GUI) is an all in one app for installing Yuzu-EA, managing saves and shader caches, and mod management. The app is entirely open source and easily available on [Itch ](https://zachar3.itch.io/yuzutoolbox)as well! ### Big update time!: This update brings a few minor bug fixes and an updated game index, in addition to some QOL changes such as a "Delete all mods" button, which will delete all of the mods for the currently selected game. The update also brings the ability to set the desired executable name upon install. A lot of the multi-threaded aspects had to be tweaked to work with new thread safety in Godot 4.1, but the app now supports it! This update also brings about a highly requested feature, auto-updating. By launching the app with --launcher or setting your shortcut to use auto updating launching the app will check your Yuzu version, and if old update it before launching Yuzu and closing itself. **Changes** - Added missing titles from Title Keys site - Updated to Godot 4.1 - Added Executable name parameter for setting custom executable name upon install - Added clear all mods button (clears mod folder for selected game) - Added launcher mode (updates Yuzu, launches it then closes itself) - Add auto updater parameter (If enabled makes it so the created shortcut will launch the program in launcher mode) - Bug fixes / Cleanup **Features:** - Cross platform (Windows and Linux) - updating with overwrites of previous versions - Simple management tools such as clearing shader caches / install directory - Shortcut creation and automatic unpacking for windows - Basic backup tool (allows save directory to be duplicated into another directory and then restored when desired) - Mod management features (downloading, installing and updating mods from a variety of sources; + ability to uninstall and detect manually installed mods) **Current mod sources:** - Yuzu wiki - Bananamods - ZeldaTOTK Holo Github repo ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/21f17ef3-1001-4d9a-b0d5-719065b07516.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/1f3b26c3-4a34-4fd2-9eba-1ced2134c665.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/049769e9-184a-4bb7-973d-0bf7613e45e9.png) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8990ebe3-d9cb-4eac-9837-b088c2b8e402.png) Itch:https://zachar3.itch.io/yuzutoolbox Github:https://github.com/ZachAR3/YuzuToolbox/releases/tag/3.5

    PineappleEA-GUI v3.1 released! (OC)
  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 100%

    In what way? The tools and mod manager does as long as the directories are correct, the installer portion uses its own portable version of yuzu early access but you can just ignore that if you wanna use your own instead.

    Game pass on Linux?
  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 0%

    Integrated graphics also work, if you have those which would technically count as a GPU. If not, I would look into just dualvooting tbh, as imo dual booting had about the same boot speeds as a vm with single GPU passthrough but without any of the quircks and restrictions a VM will have (since with single gpu pass through you can only run the VM or Linux not both at once)

  • Game pass on Linux?
  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 100%

    Yeah that's your best bet. Do you have two GPUs? If so it's pretty easy to do GPU pass through, if you only have one though you'll have to do single gpu pass through which is a bit of a pain

    No? Steam deck not on sale is $400 new for 64gb. Ignoring that he has to be charging for labour since ssd would be $60~ and micro sd card $50~ making a grand total of $510 without tax.

  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 100%

    They aren't, but doing this opens up desktop mode as a nested Wayland desktop giving it the advantages of Wayland, and since steam deck uses game scope to put each game into its own Wayland session it plays nice with steam and shows up as a normal game.

  • [Discussion] Favorite and least favorite things about your steam deck
  • ZachAR3 ZachAR3 Now 100%

    Likes:

    • ergonomics: the device is extremely comfortable to use and having full sized joysticks is awesome!
    • controls, I find having trackpads make fps games actually bearable, and I will definitely ensure any handhelds I get in the future have them.

    Dislikes:

    • battery life: pretty simple, in harder emulation and new games less than 2 hours hurts
    • CPU: I find only having a max boost clock even for single core processes (like switch emulation) only going up to 3.5ghz a major limiting factor, I think 3.5ghz is a fine target when all cores are being used but I would have liked to see 4ghz for single / dual core use.
    • weight: the device is heavy enough to where it can't be used without proping your arms against something which can be a bit of a pain
