• I wrote an app for myself to filter my library by HLTB

  I've done something similar before with Playnite (an open-source PC game library manager), which has an HLTB plugin. Source: 5 months ago

• Tags no longer register and i've finally had it with galaxy 2.0. Any recommended alternatives?

  Playnite: The one with the most features and libraries available via addons and has a lot of options for customization. In my opinion the best one available for this purpose. Source: 5 months ago

• What tools do I install?

  As for my LGO, the only other app I've installed outside of the standard launcher was Playnite to consolidate all games into one place as Legion Space doesn't detect everything I have installed and I don't want to manage manually adding games to their launcher. Source: 5 months ago

• Login in to various stores when launching games

  Use playnite instead of the individual launchers. Source: 5 months ago

• Steam Deck OLED

  Here is where I come in and recommend everyone check out Playnite: https://playnite.link/ When I care about supporting a developer or publisher and they offer their product on their own storefront DRM-free, I will often go there to buy. Or I buy from GoG which takes a smaller cut. Playnite lets me launch my Steam and non-Steam games in a seamless fashion. Steam still does a great job as a game installer/patch... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• I don't know what devil magic was used to accomplish this but Goldeneye32x managed to make a PC port of Rondo of Blood. And yes, it is fully functional, i played it. The link to the game is in the description of the video

  I mean, the game's program icon gives it away. It's a custom wrapper using an older version of Mednafen. Source: about 1 year ago

• Resources that will help you out with replaying old games.

  Mednafen with a frontend like Mednaffe are a great option for the NES, SNES, and a bunch of other 80s & early-90s systems (Genesis, Playstation 1, Saturn, etc.). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Some questions about Playstation 1 emulator

  Duckstation and Mednafen. Mednafen is the closest to 100% game accuracy; Duckstation is Mednafen but with added graphical enhancements and quality of life features. Source: almost 2 years ago

• To prep for March 4, I got in some practice laps on the original

  Both use "cores" to emulate various platforms, and in this case, they both use Mednafen for their PS1 core, which can also work as a standalone emulator if you are comfortable with the command line. Source: about 2 years ago

• Sega Saturn core plays runs better when the RetroArch menu is pulled up, but unplayable when playing normally. Can somebody help me?

  I switched directly to Mednafen (https://mednafen.github.io/) using the Mednaffe GUI (https://github.com/AmatCoder/mednaffe) and it's been smoothing sailing ever since. Source: over 2 years ago
