if Windows 11's upcoming movable taskbar doesn't let you configure it per-monitor, then it's no better than just using those Windhawk mods that also aren't a complete reimplementation of how this feature has worked for the past 14 years

guys did you know Steam Controller wilhelm scream *shatters the controller into a bazillion pieces on a concrete floor*

I dreamt that Bluesky added a 5 star rating system to posts that popped up every time you liked one and it was the worst thing ever

that feeling when you unknowingly install some compromised software on a family member's machine and have to break the news to them a day later that the software you thought was all good is actually malware now hahahahahahaha fuck

yeah, checks out

I apparently say a lot of random stuff amidst the excitement of kart racers, but "hitting that beef jerky, gravy style" has to be my best line yet

You ever just have this cool ass idea in your head, all laid out and everything, sounds like it's gonna work, then you go sit down to do it and uh yeah no

up late debugging because of some colossal typos in a Java -> C# porting job I blame the K&R style indentation, nothing quite like accidentally shoving an entire 265 line sequence of code into the wrong scope

Intel GPU drivers gotta be up there

I've been diagnosed with a minor case of computer programmer

Gigabyte might have the worst UEFI frontends out of any motherboard vendor

Behold, the nervous system of Soleanna Castle Town.

"We added an MCP server to our modding tool so you can use AI to browse the game files programmatically."

I've woken up twice in the middle of the night now and my computer would randomly follow a few minutes later and wake up from sleep. I think we're both having a bad night.

Born to type "colour", forced to type "color"

TIL Discord has a spam folder under message requests. Apologies to that one person who asked me a question about Phantom Rush in Frontiers nearly two years ago being left unanswered. lol

Alright it's been a year, I think we can reveal the "imgui sega balls!" lore...

More pre-release Unleashed Recompiled options menu stuff: it was originally going to include a drop-down for configuring the keyboard layout. We ended up dropping it during Beta 1, as we felt it would be better to have it remap actions in a later release instead, rather than buttons.

It's one year today since we unveiled Unleashed Recompiled, opening the doors to Xbox 360 recompilation. 🎉

So it turns out that symbols for some of 06's most elusive and complicated systems have been sitting on the X-Hax server since 2022. It cannot be overstated how helpful this will be for the recomp and future modding efforts. 🎉

Thanks to @hyperbx.bsky.social we've got a beautifully redesigned installer in the style of 06's UI!

Thanks to @kwasior.bsky.social, I've been able to confirm that these mods work with the GOG releases of all three games. Yakuza 3 Remastered is still available for purchase on GOG, so if you missed it on Steam before it got delisted, you still have a DRM-free option.

I think I've been awake longer than this Denuvo executable has been taking to analyse which is mildly concerning for me

Spent the past couple days refactoring some 5+ year old mods, because I've grown pretty dissatisfied with the quality of the code that I *remembered* being bad in them, not fully realising the extent of just how bad some of it actually is

I'd like to share the previous programmer art for the thumbnail of this mod that I rejected because I woke up in the middle of the night and glanced at it on my phone thinking it was a toilet

Today on yet another episode of me fixing a game before playing it, I've released a mod supporting Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 in the remastered collection that fixes the analog stick deadzone.

my Steam account set to be worth 3 Yakuzillion dollars in two days

Looking at a post on my feed from February 6th 2025 whilst half asleep and wondering how I was seeing a post from the future until I remembered it's 2026

I was expecting to be giggling watching Iron Lung because of the funny bite of 87 guy, but I ended up being genuinely captivated by it instead. Markiplier cooked with this let's play

More than a year after starting work on this, it's finally here: The full release of Hedgehog Engine Blender I/O! github.com/hedge-dev/He...

some people are getting way too confident with the output of whatever LLM they're using when claiming to have a working disasm/decomp/recomp which, in fact, does a whole load of nothing

Anyone speak fluent Additional Episode "Sonic Boss Attack"?

I've been helping with this and it's now ready! Banjo: Recompiled is now out! A PC Port of Banko-Kazooie with high framerate support, ultrawide, analog camera, mod support, etc! (also, I made the trailer!) youtu.be/0906Cz-59eU

Big update incoming: Marathon Recompiled now supports achievements! Track your progress in-game with this beautiful menu made by Hyper. Achievements have been painstakingly relocalised, so you no longer have to worry about "obtaining the all moves" :)

I didn't play Kiwami 2 for one day and the SEGA logo became extra aggressive

I've really been sleeping on the Yakuza series for way too long

HAHAHAHAHA dude this PR is so fucking LGTM, it makes me wanna merge without looking

There's something oddly satisfying about returning to an old codebase, being confused by everything for 20 minutes then suddenly everything sorta just clicks and you can get right back into it

Tech "entrepreneurship" these days seems to just be slapping a price tag on FOSS and suckering as many macOS users into buying it as possible using flashy demonstration videos with way too many zooms and pans

This week, I made a bunch of progress on XNOEdit, my cross-platform editor/viewer for Sonic '06 objects powered by .NET and WGPU. Still lots to do, but many objects now correctly visualise, including textures! Next up, bringing in original recompiled shaders so everything looks perfect.
