Anything that's openvpn compatible will work but requires some setup

How to add RetroArch games on Steam? in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml
[–] neo@lemmy.comfysnug.space 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

retroarch -L "/path/to/core.so" "/path/to/rom" should just work in most cases

When installing cores on a Linux based system, core files AND core info files are all placed in $RetroArch/cores

instead of info files being placed in $RetroArch/info like on windows.

Spoiler: Steam Rom Manager really does just work on a larger scale. If you're trying to add 20+ games to steam, just use it.

Kamidori Alchemy Meister question in c/visualnovels@lemmy.comfysnug.space

So it turns out they do sell a complete package but it's physical only and most likely only ships to Japan without a proxy/forwarder service. Fun stuff. It would be the V2.00 compilation

I am and I got muted for 6 hours for gif reacting when the gif had the soft n word in it.

Microsoft is trying to convince Windows 10 users to upgrade with full-screen prompts in c/technology@lemmy.ml
[–] neo@lemmy.comfysnug.space 3 points 1 year ago

8.1 was fine imo, but not really worth an upgrade from 7 unless it was free.

Riot Games talk Vanguard anti-cheat for League of Legends and why it's a no for Linux in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml
[–] neo@lemmy.comfysnug.space 3 points 1 year ago

It's not really necessary on a Mac though, at least from what I understood.

How do we know if there aren't a bunch of more undetected backdoors? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] neo@lemmy.comfysnug.space 9 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Reading the source code for everything running on your machine and then never updating is the only way to be absolutely 100% sure.

Larian publishing director on mass layoffs: 'None of these companies are at risk of going bankrupt. They were just at risk of pissing off the shareholders' in c/games@sh.itjust.works
[–] neo@lemmy.comfysnug.space 25 points 1 year ago (4 children)

If at all possible you should never take your company public. It's not worth the loss of control.

Was it epic exclusive? I was able to download a standalone launcher and play it that way.

Per https://lemmy.comfysnug.space/post/22200, I have gone and made a DokuWiki that we as a community can build together. I, unfortunately, know very little about what specifically I'm doing with wiki software, particularly when it comes to making things look pretty.

For now, the to-do list looks like:

I look forward to working together with all of you!

A 'scene' Database. (VN Preservation Project) (rintohsaka.github.io)
 

cross-posted from: https://preserve.games/post/61

Link does not contain any NSFW content at all, but tagging just in case, given that most of Visual Novel community relate it to +18 content, too.

Years ago, this file/folder database was created by someone who did work in collaboration with me, to track most of the visual novels that made it into the scene, mostly from Japanese P2P + Mikocon/2DJGAME and ScarletMoon chinese "BBS" site.

Just wanted to share this to let everyone know that this data was sorted by company name + using VNDB's API at same time.

**PS: **the site only shows text and filenames, as a reference to what we did manage to scrape from all the scene and keep a record of it, so it can be used as a reference for anyone that has any of those files (for example, if you happen to have a matching filename but want to know if does have different size than ours). Just to make clear there is no download links, while you can find for sure some, being shared at other known sites, or even at IA, since redump users have been working hard on that end to share dumps of old software in the recent years.

What realistic options do we have for making a copy of this wiki here on lemmy? Am I going to have to spin up a DokiWiki? Repurpose my WordPress blog to post some of these articles? I'm open to suggestions, too.

What was your first Visual Novel? (lemmy.comfysnug.space)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.comfysnug.space/post/10537

For me, Yume Miru Kusuri was my first visual novel. I don't even remember why I played it, but I liked it so much that I'm here forever now.

Playing Visual Novels on Linux (lemmy.comfysnug.space)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.comfysnug.space/post/5060

What steps, if any, do you guys take on the linux distribution of your choice to play visual novels?

I, personally, set the following in my .bashrc

alias vn='env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 wine start '

so I can just type vn gameExecutable.exe and usually just have the game work.

For the games I've had for a while, I have .desktop entries in my $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications directory with more specific commands as needed.

If you guys have any other tricks up your sleeves, please feel free to share them here.
