Nvidia Sunshiners (game streaming), how are you getting it to work?
  • I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble!

    Regarding the vainfo thing, at least on Arch, the Nvidia vaapi driver is a separate package. I’m not sure what the equivalent is on bazzite, but that’s likely why vainfo doesn’t show anything. And you should still be able to use nvenc anyways, which sunshine will choose before vaapi.

    Is moonlight able to see the computer on your network? And in sunshine’s web interface under the “troubleshoot” tab, there’s a log. Does it say anything that might help?

  • How would I use a DS4 (wired) on Linux to play old games on RetroArch?
  • My ds4 works out of the box— the touchpad even maps to the mouse cursor (I use libinput and Wayland).

    Ds4drv, if you use it, will override the default kernel driver I believe. Make sure it’s not emulating an Xbox 360 controller, unless you want that.

    ArchWiki also mentions that you need to disable hidraw in Wine. Maybe that’s related, if you have issues with Windows games?

  • Motherboard swap!
  • If you’re feeling adventurous, you could compile Marlin yourself. I did it to use a pin as an “off” signal for my fans, but ended up tinkering with options like linear advance. The set up isn’t too hard, but you need vscode.

  • Linux + gaming + KVM + multiple monitors?
  • I’ve played a small amount with it— I didn’t go far because I only have one graphics card. But my understanding is that you can set up the virtual machine to “capture” the graphics card when it is booted up, and “release” it when it’s done. That’s how some people can use a single graphics card, they just can’t see the Linux desktop while the vm is in use.

    For switching games, make sure the drive the game is on is supported by both Windows and Linux. I imagine you’d need to unmount it on the host while the vm is open. I do this for some games with dual booting. Also, install the Windows version and force proton, otherwise you’ll have to install it twice.

    For microphone, I assume there’s a solution like network: a way of forwarding the data to the VM in addition to being available on the host. I haven’t tinkered with this though.

    For monitors, I’d look into Looking Glass. My understanding is that it can make a window to display the vm output. If you don’t mind the monitor being “tethered” to the gpu, though, I’d imagine any monitors attached on the gpu you pass would display the vm’s contents, while any on the host card will remain the same.

    Best of luck!

  • Minecraft is getting a real creepy new biome and mob, plus item bundles
  • They’re great for early game— I’ve used them through the experimental feature to hold mob drops and other small-count loot. And I like being able to access them right from the inventory, though it is a bit tricky to get the preferred item out.

    That’s all my praise. Shulker boxes hold lots more total and are way better post-dragon. And they could add the inventory access mechanic to shulker boxes.

  • Colored bundles are a huge W!

    I’m a bit bummed that they don’t use rabbit hides in the recipe anymore… it makes it more accessible, but they’re an almost useless item. And Minecraft has a lot of those.

  • Oh… I’ve never once considered that. But that’d make sense as to why it only recently picked it up— historically, the profanity filters were super easily bypassed. Maybe they tightened them up!

  • Anyone else feel like this is way too easy now?
  • In my view, the community wants the game to be viable for solo dives up to the highest levels, so that’s what we’ve been given (I first felt that way after they reverted the spawn scaling changes). Some of the buffs were well needed, though, as many guns just couldn’t keep up with their counterparts in gameplay.

  • I appreciate that. Kissing armpits as a kink would be pretty reasonable*, I’d be up for that**!

    *Reasonable to refer to **I’d be up for it to be referred to that way

    As another comment said, it could probably be a euphemism for vagina too~ but I don’t know anything about that. o7

  • Yeah… the way they treat developers and monetization is super scummy. Not to mention their lack of action towards child safety concerns. There’s definitely better ways to spend my time.

    Edit: Username was “SmoochyPit”

    Wanted a place to dump this. I stopped playing in February when they prevented playing on Linux via Wine. Tried logging in now that Sober exists (sometime in August), and was met with this.

    My account and username is 11 years old. I’ve spent money on premium currency and items. Hasn’t ever been a problem. I tried to appeal…

    !

    I was not given any notice about it. I checked, and there was not an email sent when my account was actioned. No warnings, not a thing.

    I tried to explain this in a reply, but they shut it down, saying there would be no further communication on this issue, since it was more than 30 days old.

    Feels super unfair. But I’m powerless here…

    My Son Made A Roblox Game
  • Thanks for sharing! Roblox is a really great platform for learning scripting and development, and it’s always cool to see what others make with it.

    The game reminds me of slot machines a bit, minus the buy-in. Looks fun!

    You told me Rule

    My stylus broke. Here’s my “you told me so” to @aBundleOfFerrets, @huginn, @optissima, and the creator themself, @the16bitgamer.

    You told me so! I’ll print it horizontally and report back o7

    Lost my 3DS Stylus Rule

    Also I made a new acc so I can use Voyager! Previously used @SmoochyPit@beehaw.org.

    My main reason for moving to Lemmy/Kbin was to have 3rd party app support, and Beehaw ceasing Lemmy updates has now prevented that (for Voyager, at least). I still love Beehaw though, but the website is really bad on mobile.

    Anyways I’ll comment a picture when this print finishes 🙏
