I've never really liked bluetooth much with all of the interference but holy poo poo, tell us how you really feel.

Fixed an issue where a thin grey line could appear at the bottom of the screen during boot in some situations

This one is awesome because my deck does this and every time I have a little panic attack that the screen is dying.

If you haven't heard of N64 Recompiled, it's a project aiming to create native PC ports of every N64 game with a method called static recompilation. The first release is Zelda 64: Recompiled. This version only supports Majora's Mask, but Ocarina is coming next.

This is being done with the Steam Deck in mind, as they have details for installing on the platform and setting up gyro controls. Basically you just grab and unpack the Linux release, add it as a non-Steam game, then launch it and point it at your ROM.

Do they have a list of games in the order they�re doing them? Because if I can get native ports of San Francisco Rush and Mario golf I can completely cut N64 emulation out of my life

I'd say that I want Perfect Dark, but that HD unofficial remaster (using that specific emulator 1964 GEPD or whatever it's called) scratched that itch.

Still, it'd be cool to play some of the games I missed out on. Or maybe Excitebike 64 at more than 10fps.

The only recent change I've made is installing Fallout: New Vegas with the Viva New Vegas mod collection. Have you done the same by any chance?

There's a decompilation port of Perfect Dark that came out back in November: https://github.com/fgsfdsfgs/perfect_dark

It should be fine to link to this since you have to supply your own ROM to run it.

Bluetooth is a fuckin garbage protocol that shouldn�t be used for anything at all.

The only time it�s guaranteed to (mostly) work at least to an �ok� standard is when it�s between devices that were very specifically designed to very specifically connect to each other using very specifically the exact same version of the protocol. We are talking strictly first-party-vendor-same-product-ecosystem poo poo.

Anything else is a total dice roll. gently caress Bluetooth.

I haven�t had any issues with any Bluetooth devices since like 2017

Paradoxish: Dec 19, 2003; Will you stop going crazy in there?

You know, I really loving love this stupid thing. I've been too busy to get much playtime on anything in for the last month so my Steam Deck has sat on its dock, sad and unused, for that whole time. I just opened it and my month-old paused Yakuza Zero game instantly resumed and played without a hitch. Reliable suspend and resume continues to be the feature that amazes me the most about the SD. I think I've had maybe one or two situations where it hasn't worked flawlessly in over a year of ownership between the LCD and OLED models.

It�s terrific. I�ve recently played some cutscene-heavy games that don�t let you pause when a cutscene is playing, and being able to suspend is so nice, even if it�s just to answer the phone or something.

Edit: also it should be a crime to release a game that has any point where you can�t pause (barring online poo poo, obviously).

This is the biggest thing the windows handhelds need I also feel like the suspend battery life on the windows handhelds is significantly shorter as well.

Same question. I applied the update because I have some desktop stuff to do later but we'll see if it bricks itself. Decky didn't have any updates last I checked butt maybe steam fixed something on their side? May be wishful thinking.

Takes long enough that you couldn't easily do it in a fight but I enjoyed using this to be able to pause during boss second phase transformation cutscenes in lies of p.

It�s not going to get Nintendo�d just like none of the other �bring your own N64 rom and plug it into our tool to make a pc version� projects don�t get Nintendo�d either.

Nintendo can't do anything if they aren't distributing Nintendo's IP. These things work by you legally acquiring your own ROM and then it reads the rom to create their version of the game. Like all those Mario rom hacks. They just give you a patch file, you have to get your own rom and run the patch program yourself.

Yuzu was selling access to their software and actively distributing game images. They were using the Nintendo SDK that they acquired illegally. They did the stupidest things possible.

Those forks were developed with reference to Nintendo�s SDK. They�re tainted from the word go, if they�re descended from Yuzu.

has anyone had any luck dual booting their deck?

i used gparted to set aside some space after a factory reset and got Mint up and running. problem is the network card/chip is done dual wifi/BT Qualcomm 765 or another and even with the latest firmware and kernel, it won't even see my network or mouse. live environment or installed.

i'm trying manjaro live too since it's also based on arch and the network/bluetooth work fine in desktop and gaming modes on the native install
