Snes9x volume setting doesnt work12/2/2023 As a result how you use Samba shares has changed slightly. * "Samba Server Name" doesn't really serve any purpose at the moment but I left it in there just in case. * Renamed "Enter Samba Share Name" to "Enter Root Samba Share Name" since it acts more as a shortcut now that you can "Browse" SMB shares. Especially shares with passwords which NEVER worked under the old code. You should now have more luck connecting to your SAMBA shares (including a NAS). * Old SAMBA code replaced with code from XBMC. * Fixed the bug that screwed up Gilou's skin to begin with (too weird to explain). * Fixed a problem where setting the box/cart orientation was screwed up. * Fixed up the box/cart art position on a few skins. * Activated the "Keep user Within ROM Directory Tree?" which I somehow missed. * Fixed an issue with the software filters displaying garbage. * Fixed long standing bug of YesNo Menu pop-up graphic not centering properly. * Pressing the back key while viewing a games synopsis will toggle between a fixed font and the skins proportional font. First menu to use this is the cheat code database select screen. * Select file function now has an option to not display directories. * User can now select which "cheat code database" they wan't to load since it seemed silly to mix the many AR and GG codes into one file for Snes9xbox. This should help speed up rom browsing and allow the user an "out" especially for the larger movies. * If streaming movies from across the network and the user press on the dpad or a, b, x or y the emulator will abort the transfer. * Pick -1 on "Seconds before playing movie" to set to 0 seconds. Especially useful for people streaming stuff (like movies) across the network. * New feature "Seconds before playing movie" determines how long the emu will wait before playing a movie. "No" will just move the file and "Never Move" won't move the file at all. So "Yes" will ask before moving the selected file to the Garbage folder. * "Move Selected to the Garbage Folder?" now has a new option. * Fixed a couple goofs that prevented loading ROMS over a samba share. * Fixed odd bug where the opening movie and movies played full screen in the media browser would not display properly at 1080i * Fixed the problem where the wrong synopsis description was showing when selecting a game in the favorites menu. * Fixed a problem where the media directory selected by the user replaced the wrong media directory. 1.6 users let me know how this works for you. * Emulator should now work with 1.6 Xbox's super big thanks to FreakDave. * Fixed a long standing bug in the favorites system. * Background Music now stops when you start a game. * "Auto Game Configurations (aka Configuration defaults)" added (see below description). * Given the full "Madmab Edition" treatment. * Software filters should work now (I think I got it right). * Snes9xbox now has support for AR (Action Replay) and GG (Game Gear) codes. This is done to help relieve memory issues when running at 720p and higher. * Screen memory allocated depends on whether filters are active or not. Rewind works well in 480i/p and fair in 720p. * Tweaked around with the rewind system fixed a couple potential xbox lockers. Because of this I had to change the perfect pixel screen to have two options. Let me know if you run into any PAL games with scratchy sound. In the game configuration screen you can select "Automatic", "Force PAL" or "Force NTSC". * Added multiplayer5 support for games that use more than 2 controllers (aka Bomberman) I'm sure you'll let me know if they ain't. * Hopefully any PAL xbox speed issues are fixed. The emu will be nice and tell you if the game you are currently playing is using 239 pixels. The emu likes to force the vertical resolution to 239 even on NTSC games which causes the black border at the bottom. * Fixed the issue with the black border at the bottom of the screen.

Signal vs telegram12/1/2023 The app allows you to set an empty username so as not to reveal your identity. In addition, if the account is abandoned, it self-destructs, automatically deleting all the information contained on Telegram's servers. Telegram contains two-step verification (2FA), fingerprint unlocking, incognito keyboard and in secret chats there are additional functions such as blocking screenshots or the possibility of self-destructing your messages after they have been sent. In terms of metadata, it collects IP addresses, contacts and devices. The app asks for considerably less data associated with your account than WhatsApp does: phone number, user ID, phone contacts and your account name. Telegram is an open-source app and anyone can review its source code, protocol and API. The encryption algorithms are RSA 2048/AES 256/SHA-256 (SHA-1 has been removed for its insecurity). In Telegram's secret chats, the end-to-end encryption layer is added. Standard chats use server-client encryption, although it is very robust. This application also uses end-to-end encryption for its communications, but not in all its chats, only in secret chats. It currently has more than 500 million users around the world. Telegram is WhatsApp's main competitor due to the similarity of its functionalities. WhatsApp has some privacy options such as hiding your username, login time, profile picture, information and status and has two-step verification and fingerprint unlock option. The metadata it collects are IP addresses, contacts, network operators, dates of use, location, phone model and device ID. It is noteworthy the large amount of data associated with your account that it requests: phone number, user ID, contacts, email, device ID, approximate location, advertising data, purchase history and payment information, product interaction, bug and performance reports, and customer support. The cryptographic algorithms used are Curve25519/AES-256/HMAC-SHA256. This cryptographic system protects messages so that only the sender and receiver can read them and no one else, not even the application itself. It uses end-to-end encryption in all its chats, both individual and group. WhatsApp has more than 2 billion users worldwide. We have discarded applications such as iMessage or Google Messages because they are exclusively for iPhone and Android users, respectively, and other less relevant minority applications for this comparison. If you are switching from WhatsApp, you will have no problem using any one of them.Given the situation, in this article we will look at the main differences in terms of security and privacy that exist between the green app, Telegram and Signal. Note that we’ve only mentioned features that are unique to both messengers. However, Signal is constantly improving and adding new things. Delete messages from the group if you are the adminĬomparing the two, Telegram has the upper hand in features.You can edit the messages after you’ve sent them.You can send animated stickers and GIFs (Signal supports sending GIFs via gif supported keyboards, but does not offer in-app GIF integration).Telegram groups can have up to 200,000 members.Start a chat with a person without knowing their phone number.View online status or last seen of the recipient.Telegram messenger features that are not available on Signal Quickly reply to messages with emoji reactions.Toggling them off would mean the recipient won’t know if you have read the message and whether you’re have typed something or not Disable read indicators and typing indications.Signal Private messenger features that are not available on Telegram Note: We will be adding more features to the list in the next few days.

Unfortunately, the bubbles start opening portals that transport Spongebob and Patrick’s friends to alternate dimensions. After buying a mysterious bottle from potion vendor Madame Kassandra (voiced by Sirena Irwin), Spongebob starts blowing magic bubbles to help his friends. The game sees players play as Spongebob (voiced by Tom Kenny) as his trip to Glove World with his best bud Patrick (voiced by Bill Fagerbakke) takes an unexpected turn. But THQ Nordic and developer Purple Lamp recently delivered a spiritual successor in The Cosmic Shake that’s nothing more than a subpar Spongebob game that prioritizes simple nostalgia over genuine love and care. Other than having the recognisable mugs of SpongeBob and gang, there is not really a redeeming factor for the state of this game.It’s been quite some time since Spongebob fans have gotten a game for the beloved Nickelodeon cartoon akin to Battle for Bikini Bottom. The argument that SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake is made for kids does have some valid points, but then again, with access to other contemporaries like Kirby and the Forgotten Land and the Mario series, it doesn’t hold water anymore. The presence of side quests could have been used to embrace the ridiculousness of the setting and the characters truly, but again, it all falls short. Outside of all of that, players will be engaging in the usual collectathons that seem to be a staple of the genre, but never an engaging activity in this case. The same goes for the boss battles, which are nice departures from the usual humdrum, but are never quite impactful enough to flip the experience in the right direction. This downer of a formula applies to all the realms that our heroes will visit, and even when there are some cute surprises like a stealth section, they only last for a short while before being locked away, never to be seen again. If you managed to get through the first few hours, then you already know what to expect for the rest of the experience, which is not a good sign. There is no room for new and interesting ideas on display here, with a constant grind of jumping puzzles and boring combat against a limited variety of foes.Įven the new tools of navigation, like a pizza box glider or combat moves, are not exactly a key part of progression just doing the same simple basics will get you through SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake. Compared to the recent remaster, it seems nothing has changed for the better, with aged mechanics still being held up as the way to go. Sadly, it is the gameplay front that truly causes SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake to plummet into the murky depths. SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake also gives fans a chance to indulge in nostalgia, thanks to the original voice actors providing their talents to characters like SpongeBob, Patrick, Pearl, The Flying Dutchman, and Mr Krabs. The various portals lead into realms that have been somewhat altered from the original Bikini Bottom, resulting in vibrant and colourful creations that are always fun to look at. Thankfully, there are still other nice touches here and there to breathe life into this underwater adventure. It is a nice trip down memory lane for sure, but for newcomers, the notion can easily fly over their heads. While there was certainly room to explore an original SpongeBob tale, the premise is merely a foundation on which players can experience classic episodes of the show. In order to make things right again, SpongeBob teams up with the inflatable Patrick to jump through portals and assemble their friends to save the day. The setup is simple and straightforward, with Bikini Bottom in danger of being torn apart due to some questionable decisions made by our hero.

Zenith the last city cyber ninja12/1/2023 While you wait, check out our review of Zenith from earlier in the year. We know that the upcoming third class, the Cyber Ninja, will be stealth-focused and use a ranged bow as its weapon.Īre you looking forward to the 1.1 content update for Zenith? Let us know in the comments below. A tweet from the Zenith account says the dungeons are “filled with interactive puzzles, adversaries, and of course – lots of LOOT!” If we were Zenith fans looking for more details, we’d be keeping an eye out on any upcoming VR showcases, if you know what we mean…īeyond the 1.1 update, there’s still more plans and lots to come for Zenith. It’s only a short bit of footage for now, but there’ll hopefully be more to come very soon. The studio looks set to deliver on the second part of that promise very soon, with six brand new instanced dungeons arriving in update 1.1, which you can catch a glimpse of in the short teaser trailer embedded above. Just after launch, Ramen VR promised at least three - if not more - new classes, as well as better, instanced dungeons coming in the future. Zenith: The Celestial Throne Update Teaser Trailer Since a hugely successful launch, a lot has happened - the studio behind the title Ramen VR raised an additional $35 million in a funding round, while also announcing major plans for ongoing updates that would add new content to the game. This update is a huge one, adding an entire new continent, the Cyber Ninja class, also introduces PvP, overhauls combat, and so much more. We’ve also got some amazing investment partners including Anthos Capital and Dune Ventures, with additional investment from Makers Fund and personal investments from Andrew Chen and James Gwertzman, general partners at Andreessen Horowitz.Zenith revealed a new teaser for its next update, promising ‘dozens of hours’ of new content and six instanced dungeons.Ĭontent patch 1.1 will be the first major update for VR MMO Zenith: The Lost City, which launched back in January for PC VR, Quest and PSVR. Zenith: The Last City's Skyward Summit update is now live. Be prepared to see more worlds in Zenith soon. PS - We’ll never sacrifice VR immersion for the sake of being cross-platform. Even if we expand our team though our focus continues to be polishing the overall experience of Zenith and adding tons of new leveling and end game content. This funding will allow us to not only build out the core of Zenith but also accelerate our efforts to bring bespoke and tailored mobile and desktop experiences to the game as well. We’ve said for a long time that this is the only game we’re going to work on, and that continues to be the case. But don't worry, we will work hard to preserve the culture that got us to this point - Do Right By The Player is and continues to be our credo. We can bring on world class team members that have built the most successful gaming franchises and VR games of the past 10 years. This funding means we will probably double or triple our team size in the next few years and double down on Zenith. We quickly made all our development costs back and are profitable - but with this cash infusion we can be even more ambitious. We were both humbled and overwhelmed by the reception to our launch in January we became the #1 selling game on Steam (not just SteamVR), Oculus Rift, and Oculus Quest, and a top-selling title on PlayStation VR, as well. Some shards are being removed entirely, while others are. To that end, we’re adjusting the shard lists for some regions starting next week (well make another announcement closer to the exact date). You guys have been playing the game for almost 2 hours each day, and there are hundreds of thousands of you at this point! Investors were really excited by that so we decided to raise some capital to help us get to the future quicker. The community is growing and taking shape, and as a result, we’re starting to get a better picture of which users are located in which regions. As we covered in our review-in-progress, there’s technically only two classes in. TL DR we get more $$$ to make Zenith gud, faster.Īt launch, Zenith was the top selling game across multiple platforms, beating out preorders for Elden Ring, and sales of Dying Light, God of War, and Beat Saber. Recently-launched VR MMO Zenith revealed details of its upcoming stealth-focused third class, the Cyber Ninja. Details may vary depending on the controller used. Some godstone abilities are passive, but most are associated with a gesture, a button press, or both. You might be asking yourself - “ What does that mean?” A Godstone corresponds to an ability that you can unlock and use as you progress. We just closed our $35M Series B financing.
