Needed a new ds card, thought I may as well get one that does ntrboot as well in case I even need it.

Surprised by the quality, I was expecting for it to need a bit of paper shoved down it to show up or for it to catch going in and out the slot as I read a lot about poor shell quality, but it goes in and out fine and shows up 100% of the time.

Only complaint if I'm being picky, is the sd card doesn't sit flush, sticks up a little.

Can't complain for the price though.

Well it's a pretty great mail day for me! After being told last month that there would be a delay and that it'd get to me sometime mid-April, I had heard nothing from ASUS. Until this showed up today with zero shipping confirmation:

It is every bit as cool as I hoped it would be. On a lesser note that is still pretty exciting, I also got my SwiCCs after USPS lost them the first time around! A very long time coming, but the seller was fantastic. If anybody here is wanting a cool device to allow you to manipulate Switch controller inputs from a PC, I can very much recommend them: https://knflrpn.com/SwiCC/

Bought Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, Viscera Cleanup Detail, and Fallout 3: GOTY on Steam. They were all on sale. Also bought a D-Link AC1750 Router because it was cheap, and I wanted to add internet to my shed that I'm building for storing my bike/hobby studio.

    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, ik

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
