Welcome to 2020, everyone! Some of the images have broken and some of the information is outdated. I'm not really into the whole portabilizing thing anymore, but I cleaned up the guide a little and put together a downloadable PDF version that hopefully won't disappear from the internet. You can...

I'm almost done my education and develop indie games now. Computer Systems Technology, because engineering didn't work out for me.

I fixed a Sony A580. The screen didn't work when I bought it. After replacing the LCD and a cable, it turns out that the cable was just making poor contact. Fixed with a half cent piece of tape. Oh, well.

It's almost impossible to tell forums with new posts from ones without on the front page, because the bold font is nearly identical to the non-bold one.

This subforum is really buried, so I'm not sure if anyone will even find this thread, but given that this is (sort of) the birthplace of modern VR, I figure it's worth posting here. Firefighter VR is the sequel to one of my previous games, Firefighter Simulator 2016. This time I'm actually...

I fixed my optical drive enclosure by replacing its broken controller board with a random one off Amazon.

It's basically impossible. Try Kickstarter. Though if you're going to go all-out, use a Core m7 or wait for something from AMD instead of an Atom.

Finally replaced the stock background with this. Image is scaled: it's actually two 1080p side by side. The left side is my monitor, which is my primary display. The right side is the laptop display. They are not the same size in real life.

Only the launcher uses .NET. The rest is native Windows, and I have no idea if you can get that to run on WINE or if there's a port somewhere.

I'm spamming this all over the internet so why not here too? It also has a thread that hasn't been updated in forever. Ascension 2 Galaxy is a science fiction RPG reminiscent of early 90s JPRGs yet taking inspiration from newer works as well. It's a sequel of sorts to my text RPG, Ascension...

You probably don't see many games around here, but I figured I'd post anyway in case someone is interested. Metro 2034 Redux Welcome METRO 2034, glorious post-apocalpyse adventure! In game you play Hunter, great ranger of metro of Moskva! Is shooter, lots of shooting action and quality cinema...

It's mostly emulators, actually- MAME for arcade and WinKawaks (does anyone know of something that sucks less?) for Neo Geo. It also has NES, SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, N64, and Dreamcast emulation. The older consoles are better- the controls don't really work well for N64 and Dreamcast. It has...

I just realized I haven't posted updated specs since 2013, just snippets here and there. Sandy - Main PC Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge (stock clocks) MSI Z68MA-ED55 Z68 mATX 16GB Mushkin Enhanced DDR3-1600 (2x8) EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Superclocked (blower cooler) Plextor m5 Pro 256GB (OS)...

Upgrade complete! You can read about it here.

Recently, I upgraded Candytop. I was going to post in the original Candytop finished thread, but apparently I never made one. Candytop is a bartop MAME cab loosely styled after a Japanese candy cab that me and my dad built in 2010. Yeah, I thought it wasn't that long ago, but apparently it was...

Pretty nice. I actually considered doing something similar a few years back with my old half-broken laptop, but we ended up building an ITX box instead. But why, why, why a mechanical hard drive in 2015? Looks like stylized covers over the wifi antenna wires.

Never understood the point of painting one of these to be honest. My philosophy is that it should look as stock as possible from the outside while still being practical. But to each his own- it does look pretty cool in its own way. As installed, the fan in the G3 is completely useless. It's...

Power Mac i5 is an old Power Mac G3 Blue and White, partially gutted and converted to a modern PC. It retains as much as the original look as possible while being a practical PC. It is very modular and standards-compliant, so swapping parts is easy. The PC itself is brand new and quite fast and...

I didn't even realize I made a thread here... I just released the semi-closed alpha. It's a very early build, full of bugs and far from polished. I'm trying to get some feedback mostly on whether the plot and general progression of the game makes sense and on the overall format. You'll need...
