@Shonumi Very nice. The other thing that stumped me for a bit was that the hotkey to enable high quality audio isn't mentioned anywhere, but it wasn't hard to find by just pressing keys.

@Shonumi Hi, I hope it's okay to reach out about this, but I'm trying to play the Play-Yan Garage Games on GBE+ and having a bit of trouble. To start with, I get a "MMU::Play-Yan SFX samples are empty" error and hear no sound effects. Am I understanding correctly that these are supposed to be in a WAV file I'm missing?

EDIT: Figured it out! Didn't realize it was only one sound I can easily set to the original. That's awesome, fantastic job.

Learned yesterday that the revived XBAND server allows custom profile images and upon seeing the required dimensions immediately knew what I wanted.
Been going through ancient SNES savefiles containing info uploaded to the XBAND online multiplayer servers at the end of the service in 1997 and I cannot fucking believe I found an early version of this meme here. Is this what the guy who found Tutankhamun felt like?
@sappharad We actually found the files via archive.org: https://web.archive.org/web/20051220185209if_/http://projects.sappharad.com/gcn/gc_online/GC_online_tunnel.zip Fascinating to see that video! We're hoping to record something from both sides this time.
@sappharad Ah, we'll try that! Thanks. We realize it's just a POC but we kinda want to show it working for the same reason, and hopefully attract interest for reviving GCARS in some way. Oh, one last question: do you remember if the "setup" option is necessary? (The one that says "Dont use this. It's for Sonic Adv 2 Battle.")
@sappharad Oh yeah, GCARS is pretty cool, but it won't detect games on any console with a modchip and yours does. We've been able to figure out the GCNrd side, but what's tripping us up is when to connect. Do you remember if it was before the game is launched (so on GCNrd), or while the game is on the main menu or something?
@sappharad Hi! This is a very long shot, but: do you happen to remember much about your old GC Online Tunnel program? Some of us at a discord for online gameplay on GameCube consoles have been playing around with it (and the successor, GCARS-CS), but we're a little confused about the order of operations. I realize this was forever ago so I'm not expecting much, but figured it was worth a shot!
@mrmxy.bsky.social was supposed to post "I'm at the combination Mastodon and Bluesky" but it's been almost 40 minutes and I don't think he's doing it
I'm at Mastodon. I'm at Bluesky.
