https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzlYKeNcZ4M I've said it before, but the Milo engine's backwards compatibility is legendary. This was mostly done via just endian swapping the GH2 stuff over to big endian, then the engine can just handle this old content seemingly perfectly. RB3 dropped support […]

discovered one of my favorite vocaloid artists publishes stems and explicitly allows them to be used in rhythm game customs...time to put together some dope RB3 customs using advanced VENUE trickery (custom post processing etc.) to get some really cool custom effects

Just grabbed my 20-year veteran cape on Runescape. I am officially getting old

House, M.D. on the Nintendo DS seems to be entirely driven by .xml files, uses normal .png files for textures, and normal .wav for its sounds. If you were so inclined, you could probably easily put together a ROM hack that adds new cases or even make a total […] [Original post on wetdry.world]

Got the Lain artbook at the Japanese bookstore in town today. Today was a good day

The amount of times I've described my love for Coca-Cola to my coworkers as me being a "Coke addict" is non-zero and every time I do it I cringe and have to immediately correct myself

I think it's finally time to take down my Christmas tree and lights 😔

Looking at the Unity 6.x feature set I wish it was not such a pain in the ass to upgrade a game to a newer version

Even though I sometimes dread firing up Anki every day, there are now 250 or so Japanese words I can recognize according to the stats, and it is definitely noticeable compared to where I was at a month ago. Hypothetically speaking, by this time next year my Japanese vocabulary will be over 4000 […]

Absolute unit of a cheesesteak I had earlier

merry Christmas. spend some good time with and share some appreciation for your friends, family and God

Learning Japanese has made me remember how much I love learning languages

I love arcade rhythm games

happy 20th birthday to the xbox 360. that console without a doubt changed my life, reverse engineering and then writing CoD mod tools in the early 2010s set me on the path to the career I have now

I made a Kasane Teto cover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhFAhx7GeMM

Let’s fucking go

rest in peace, Rebecca Heineman. thank you for everything

Made a script CLI hook for the Rock Band Network's Magma compiler at https://github.com/ihatecompvir/MagmaCLIHook. The Magma compiler is usually just used to compile the RBN2 song into the format usable by the game, but it actually contains a complete but […] [Original post on wetdry.world]

hungry hungry pizza for me. give me slice, now

Been cleaning up my Milo model importing tools over the past few days. Fixed pretty much all of the big issues that were remaining, and started working on a new feature for RB3E that scans the ARK or your flash drive or whatever for custom character files and […] [Original post on wetdry.world]

The perfect YouTube category list doesn't exi-

The Beatles Rock Band is now old enough to drive in the US

I buy a cookie cake from the grocery store every few weeks just to eat and for the nostalgia, not even as a celebration of any kind. Wonder how long it is going to take me to get tired of these

it is now september, hopefully this is finally the month I get my CRKD Xbox guitar and they don't delay it more

My mom sent me this picture of her cat on the smart doorbell

Kind of crazy to see that VRChat's player numbers have done nothing but continue going up over the years. At least on Steam, it is currently the most popular it has ever been, and I'm assuming the same is true for mobile VR. Makes me wonder what things will look like in 5-10 years as XR […]

geeked up playing xbox all day

feels kind of sad after releasing my 360 exploit (https://github.com/ihatecompvir/BrutalBranch btw) knowing it is likely the last thing I will ever really do on the console, security-wise. I'll still work on RB3E 360 for the forseeable future but in terms of research to do new things that have […]

So weird to think Earth isn't the only planet where you could find a PowerPC processor

writing a Reddit browser plugin to automatically downvote every post that contains the word “slop” in any form

this goes so hard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bItNO8jh1Bg

french onion soup is so good

Apple Music has slowly been pushing more and more vocaloid songs into my ears and I am finding out I enjoy it a good bit

Once again on the plane to Vegas for DEF CON. Doesn’t feel like it has already been a year since the last one

Finally hopped on the VisionOS 26 beta and I gotta say, widgets are probably the best feature they’ve ever added. After spending an hour or so using it and then taking it off, my walls feel so bare lol

I need to practice better discipline. I hate that my personal projects (some of which are used by a good bit of people) just languish for weeks on end because I lose the motivation to work on them every now and then. It always comes back eventually, but I really need to get better at just doing […]

haven't played a gears game in years but I still got it

was gonna put MacOS Tahoe beta on my 2018 mac mini but then realized that it won't support it (officially anyway). buying the M4 Mac mini last year was the right call indeed

all in all pretty good updates in Appleland today. really glad VisionOS is gonna support the PSVR2 controllers natively. iPadOS multitasking improvements are neat but I wish they'd give us a terminal and Xcode already. maybe next year also I put the beta of iOS 26 on my old iPhone 12 and I love […]

wtf did not know deltarune was coming out gotta grab that and get the platinum on ps5

I love Logitech mice hardware, but holy crap G Hub is just awful. It only launches like 10% of the time, most of the time I have to kill the service and do a bunch of fucking around before I can get it to actually launch. If they'd just fix this one issue I'd be totally happy with this mouse but […]

flower

need to take a good look at the PlayStation Portal. would be a fun device to poke around with security wise

garlic bread

Got the Friday Night Funkin' OST vinyl, cassette, and CD in the mail a few days ago. Forgot I even backed that Kickstarter, it's been several years now lol

Broke out the Quest 3 for the first time in months to world hop in VRChat for a bit and remembered how much I truly love VR. There is genuinely no technology I'm more excited to see the long-term future of than this

need to jump back into the Apple dev game and make some cool XR apps. I miss working with SwiftUI

finally figured out custom rigged models in Rock Band 3, one of my longest standing goals with this game. so happy with this

Really been enjoying my leave. No obligations, no worrying about work deadlines, it’s wonderful just to have some time to chill. Haven’t had any longer than like ~2 weeks off in many years so this has been very much needed
