@beeeemooooo Is this on real hardware or emulating? What wherl?

Playing Burnout PS2 with a wheel. Does this make you faster? no. Does this make the game easier? no. Does this help you feel the steering wheel as your car plow through 300 minivans and the weight of thousands of souls crushing as you lob a family into the opposing lane? Yes.

There are now 7,370 players in the Dreamcast Now database. We've gained 2.32 new players per day since 2022. Just in the last week we've had almost 200 unique players online. Not too shabby for a "dead" console I'd say!

@PalmerSquares Or any Northern California please

@PalmerSquares No san francisco ???? :(

@collingall Ooh nice do you mess around much with the xbox? I recently got back into the scene after years of absence so much has changed

@FluxCapGameTech Most of the code will port really well for Xbox, it will just need a different PCB and Xbox specific changes

Just in case anyone is curious about the #LCDJewel project. It is still in development. New hardware is almost to me.

@collingall I’m sure you’re you’ve learned a ton with this project and I’m hoping that once this is completely out, you could consider trying something like this for the original Xbox. There’s already something out there but maybe you could do something different.

Customizable boot animations, GameID support via Swiss and the Controller interface allowing per game images/videos when a game loads. Macro injection and controller emulation via the touchscreen on player 1 to open GCVideo/PixelFX hdmi Settings, and navigation, optional IR remote support for dongle GCvideo. Possibly more depending on how far I can push the ESP32-P4, as it stands I have a ton of room for more active functions, a lot more than the previous hardware with the S3.

@my2k2zx2 @Arthrimus Oh ok still cleaner than diy esp32 with all the wires. Are these on his store?

@FluxCapGameTech @Arthrimus It's not plug and play, needs to be soldered on to the controller board. Also needs traces cut depending on doing the current trigger or port shield install. Cannot turn the console on/off via Bluetooth. Wiring individual port LEDs is a bit of a mess but doable.

Working on getting this GameCube all loaded up. RetroGem Shiny, picoboot, fully recapped, and internal blueretro.

@slidelljohn1 @PCBWayOfficial Cracy what does this do for games if anything? Or is it for dev

@PCBWayOfficial Nice! Reminds me of the 128kb x2 sets I did for the snes when I increased the size of the vram from the original 64kb. The snes shipped with 64kb but the ppu actually supported 128kb. I also used unused cpu I/O port to switch between two sets of 128kb. imgur.com/a/qJgFcmN

How to push the limits of the original #Xbox by quadrupling its memory from #64MB to #256MB?

@RetroTechChris That a neat compaq too

@RetroTechChris What is is this? Im not familiar with anything before w98

I got a new DOS file transfer toy! Now, these have been around since the dawn of time, but let's talk about it: a MicroSD to LPT Printer Port Adapter. We'll give it a test on my Compaq LTE 5400. Time for a 🧵

@Dex_is_Drunk @BlueShell3D 🤯

@BlueShell3D As long as I can get them down to my storage/workshop room before they notice it's fine.

@BlueShell3D @FBXGargoyle While doing a headstand lol i personally never got to install one but always wanted to i see clones on AE been tempted to try one

@FBXGargoyle The install for the GCDual is super easy compared to the options out there. And I could install a GCLoader in the dark with one hand.

I miss the old Black Dog Tech, and I have zero problems promoting his kits to this day like the GCLoader + GCDual, and the OG PS1Digital (still the best version to get).

@DerekPascarella I always make back ups before saving anything new .

Ever had a file or folder on your GDEMU SD card accidentally open in another program while you clicked 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 in GD MENU Card Manager, and then wreaked havoc? With the upcoming v1.2 openMenu Virtual Folder Bundle, a "lock check" process executes before even trying to touch your files!

@DerekPascarella There anything to be done regarding the hyphen in some serials some have them some dont can it be set so tha it reads it the same to avoid duplicates etc

When v1.2-ateam of openMenu (and the Card Manager) is released, artwork management will be a whole lot easier 😎
