gabriele97, do gaming w Are there still any solid, updated minecraft modpacks around?
@gabriele97@lemmy.g97.top avatar

OT: what happened to all those beautiful mods? Are they still there? I remember IndustrialCraft, Build raft, there was a mod that introduced bees (?) And another one called Logistic Pipes. Damn I was completely in love with those logistic Pipes

Adramis,

IndustrialCraft still exists: www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/ic2-classic

BuildCraft never moved forward past the block ID change in 1.12, but it’s still updated, IIRC.

Forestry hasn’t been updated in a long time, but with the addition of bees in vanilla there’s new bee mods to play with: www.curseforge.com/minecraft/…/productivebees

Logistic Pipes also didn’t make it past the block ID change in 1.12, but there are a variety of new storage mods like xNet, Integrated Dynamics, Applied Energistics 2, etc.

My personal opinion is that minecraft modding is a lot quieter than it used to be because Microsoft has been playing down the Java version (the moddable version) and playing up the version you have to pay for addons / mods (Bedrock). But there’s probably a lot of things contributing - aging demographic of the Java version, the fact that the mod API never happened and never will, disillusionment with M$, etc.

sandriver, do gaming w Does anyone know of any kid-friendly "horror" games out there for children ~7 years old?

If Super Metroid is on the Nintendo Switch emulator, that’s a good spooky game, including an explicitly horror-themed level, the Wrecked Ship. There’s a layer of removal since it’s 2D and zoomed out. Not all of the game is all that spooky, I think it’s mainly Wrecked Ship and the end of the game.

Metroid Fusion is much spookier, including sequences where you’re being hunted by a Samus clone. Very creepy vibes throughout too. Other M has a lot of thrills as well. And Metroid Dread is, of course, dread-inducing. Actually it was the first Metroid game I couldn’t play because the stealth sequences were too much for me, lol.

Majora’s Mask is mostly more eerie, but there are some good high tension moments as well.

LoamImprovement, do gaming w Does anyone know of any kid-friendly "horror" games out there for children ~7 years old?

I would give My Friendly Neighborhood a try - it’s very much in the vein of Resident Evil 4 with just-different-enough Sesame Street puppets that give you a jumpscare and damage when they make contact. Put together by John and Evan Szymanski (brothers to and collaborators with David Szymanski, of several New Blood titles fame,) it’s made explicitly to be horrifying without relying on gore and excessive violence.

I thought, in the past, there was a way to swap what region of a game you had from within Steam. For example if you had an account in Spain and you wanted to play the English version of a game due to poor dubbing or whatever.

Could you order a disc version online? The game was removed from the Federal Testing Agency for Media Harmful to Minors (?) in 2011.

@RichByy@beehaw.org avatar

Disc versions will not run. Old CD’s won’t work due to DRM stuffs from Microsoft (all of my old games on CD’s like Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets PC won’t run on Windows). The only solution would be a no-cd version, but I’d like to avoid random downloads from unknown sources.

Thank you though! :)

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

No worries. There is a fix pack available for it that has about 2,000 reviews on Steam if you do want to go that route. I would image that would be relatively reputable.

Probably just as safe as the pirated version Rockstar themselves were selling.

You could try to use a VPN and make a US steam account, then that might allow you to buy the game

RichByy,
@RichByy@beehaw.org avatar

Thank you for your suggestion! :D But please be careful with buying games on Steam through VPNs, because that can actually get your Steam account permabanned. I don’t know if you can avoid that with creating a new account though, just be careful with main accounts.

@panmeek@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I’m not sure if that’s what you mean but if you’re using docker compose there’s a variable called WEBUI_PORT

matey,

That just changes the port of the bundled UI; it doesn’t allow you to connect a UI to a separate client.

oops sorry my bad

JebanuusPisusII,

Do you want to have a single UI for multiple clients?

matey,

Other way around - I want to have multiple UIs for a single client.

eximo, do piracy w Any best practices to stream sports on iOS?

Orion Browser allows full extensions such as ublock origin. That helps but I found even if the steam plays on the iOS device the Airplay stream won’t work due to some odd encoding the website is doing.

ivanafterall, do gaming w Looking for retro adventure games
SpooneyOdin,

Indigo Prophecy was definitely a fun experience, but it has more quick time events than actual puzzles. Still worth a look if you are looking for a good story (although it got rushed in the end so the finale isn’t great)

ivanafterall,

Yeah, I was in love with it for the first half, then it really dropped the ball story-wise. But it was still a positive and memorable experience for me. Very immersive, at least at the time.

Vordus,

If I remember correctly, it was originally intended to be an episodic game, but plans changed late in development. As a result, the first half of the game is a really good bit of moody character-driven slow burn storytelling, and then suddenly it’s like the entire corkboard full of plot ideas gets vomited out at once.

ivanafterall,

(SPOILER?) All I remember is some shiny man appearing and then it all stopped making any sense.
