  1. I spent hours today to find how run Long War Rebalanced for Xcom 1 (2012) under Linux. Digging, digging, digging, there are two installer scripts, one broken that probably turns out often with the search, and another one which works.
    Working one, called usually lwr-install: gist.github.com/daniele-bondi/

    Do not use the other one, usually called "install_linux.bash", it just broke the installation.

    Hope it helps.

  2. Love deep dive videos like this.

    "I built a custom open-world engine for the N64. In this video, I break down how I achieved a seamless, massive world with zero loading screens on N64 hardware."

  3. With #ImmersiveWasteland2 #SurvivalMode it took all week to get my character to Level 20 and into a suit of X-01 power armor with a badass combat shotgun to go full Ghoul Slayer on Croup Manor, instead of being able to do it leisurely in one sitting like vanilla

  4. I’m still not sure how I feel about the #ImmersiveWasteland2 mod collection

    On one hand, it was clearly not made for me as a gamer

    On the other hand:
    - it completely reinvents gameplay
    - massively increases difficulty in a meaningful way while practically eliminating obnoxious nuisances
    - paces progression differently, so you really have to work on building your character
    - makes #SurvivalMode playable and enjoyable without replacing it with a full Fallout 76 style overhaul like Advanced Needs 76
    - has a consistent, gloomy style more in keeping with the theme, setting, and tone of the franchise
    - replaces all textures with grittier, older looking ones, which reinforces the style
    - takes forever and a metric shit-ton of caps to get into your first suit of power armor, and all the additional differences that makes to how you strategize and survive
    - comes with 20–30x the nuclear fire straight out of the tin compared to “A StoryWealth”, and a solid 100x compared to vanilla
    - provides a wholly novel experience to a game I’ve played to death
    - and makes for great screenshots, WTAF

    So I guess I both love it and hate it equally, although it troubles me further that I can qualify exactly what I love about it, but can’t qualify the hate

  5. Was having a hell of a time just getting #FalloutNewVegas to run straight from Steam on the latest #Windows11 updates

    But then I modded the shit out of it and it just works again

    Well... With one important, ongoing caveat that’s hardly news to anyone: I still haven’t found a single working solution to the Bluetooth audio problems (unless you count not-using-Bluetooth-audio a solution)

  6. RE: functional.cafe/@thephoeron/11

    I suppose it doesn’t matter whether it’s a bad good-choice or a good bad-choice, stylistically speaking, since this illustrated-ambience lighting is giving me extreme dizziness and nauseation—almost as bad as early VR headsets 😑

  7. 🚀 The classic shooter Painkiller gets a fresh coat with RTX Remix’s generative‑AI pipeline. It rebuilds textures, fixes lighting and brings physically‑based rendering to a decades‑old engine. See how AI‑driven texture generation and PBR lighting transform the modding scene while staying open‑source friendly. #RTXRemix #GenerativeAI #GameModding #PBRLighting

  8. What is this? A new Digimon Game? Well... You know what happens when I get my hands on a new Digimon Game... :3c

  9. Me, yesterday: Na, I'll do without Svarty's config mods. I just craft stuff depending on mood. I play on casual, I don't need to min-max.

    Me, later yesterday: Is reminded why she hates the tier 3+4 armour... what's with those cloth stripes on the bottom seams?

    Me, today: Configures Svarty's config mods, at least for the mages.

    Why do I always think I can do without them, when it's blatantly obvious that I can't?
