  • citra

    A Nintendo 3DS Emulator

    Project mention: Rokid Max Review and Many Tips | /r/rokid_official | 2023-07-21

    Another wonderful option is to play Nintendo 3DS games with the Citra emulator. They look incredible. I would go so far as to say that if you're a fan of the console then this is the best way to experience its games, even better than on the original hardware. Again use 3840x1200 @ 60 Hz and full SBS. In Emulation -> Configure... -> Graphics -> Stereoscopy set it to "Side by Side". Also increase the renderer internal resolution to as high as your PC can handle (I used "5x Native"). We'll also have to set the display layout for our resolution and aspect ratio. Unfortunately, this has to be done manually. Browse to %APPDATA%\Citra\config and edit qt-config.ini with this in the [display] section:

  • pcsx2

    PCSX2 - The Playstation 2 Emulator

    Project mention: Do the PS2 versions work on PS3? | /r/Slycooper | 2023-12-10

    Idk what you might be doing wrong, and I'm not in the tutorial business, but I highly recommend giving the latest version of PCSX2 and a random YouTube tutorial another shot, it's gonna be a lot easier than jailbreaking your PS3. Either way good luck have fun.

    Complete Open Source and Modular solution for MMO

    Project mention: 2009scape – Runescape in 2009 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-18

    Cool, I didn't realize Runescape private servers were a thing still.

    I contribute to AzerothCore[0] pretty regularly. There's a lot of improvements that could be made, but it's overall fun and the majority of people who frequent their Discord are friendly enough.
