Plutonium

Bro you don't even know how to use git, your vibe coded UI is pointless because it doesn't add anything, it doesn't even look nice, and all your posts read like you scam senior citizens for a living.

A closed source UI that doesn't add anything? Sounds like using this is just asking for malware.
Just use the basic cli commands plutonium supports to make game shortcuts if that's what you want. No reason to use this.

You can launch individual games through batch scripts and load those through steam or something like playnite. Or if you just want to control the mouse get a DS4 and use the trackpad.

There's no reason to buy anything from the microsoft store ever tbh.

Didn't realize there was a fix for this. The pluto devs should officially implement this so it can work online, I'd consider this an "essential" fix.

@Peggster The devs have already said multiple times they don't want to, and all the clients you already mentioned support BO3 and work well. Just use one of those.

Enjoy your pity updoot.

bb4evr Adding maps/weapons from MW3 and making balancing changes like removing painkiller only make it a better game tbh.

Not to mention HMW, which isn't exactly vanilla but still a great way to play.

I don't know how I missed this, but it's just what I needed! Real shame Pluto just doesn't have an offline mode.

ixori I've played both on controller, so yes I'm positive.

Plutonium already adds aim assist to WaW and BO1. There's a wiki page but it needs to be updated https://plutonium.pw/docs/aim-assist/

I'm gonna be honest I personally believe the audios were always like this, it'd just be harder to hear the compressed sounds if you were playing on TV. I noticed this audio at first when I played on Steam for the first time on headphones back in 2021 and yeah I can say for sure it did not sound too great

I think you're right. I looked up some gameplay from the PS3 port and the dialogue sounds pretty bad there too (although maybe marginally better? I'm only comparing youtube videos so it's hard to say for sure).

Does it work with other games expecting x-input, or is it just plutonium having issues?

DirkRockface said in Make plutonium open source:

DrSkum88 That's a bad argument for keeping any project open source... do you know how expensive "taking legal action" would be? Especially for a free project that does not make any money (other than a few donations to help keep the services running). And you would be taking legal action against someone likely to have NO money, thus making it not worth it financially.

And, by the time all that got settled out in the courts (assuming anyone would take the case for a border line not-legal product anyway) there would be tons of clones and copies of it out there. You see this all the time with indie style projects that are a lot of work, but not big enough to make the news when someone "steals" it. If people are concerned about plutonium being a virus (or a bitcoin miner) then they can just not install it... piece of cake!

If the devs wanted help forks by open sourcing it, then they would. for now, let them keep their trusted dev base working on it and the rest of us can enjoy using a free app that enables some cool features and abilities and scrapes a few Social Security Numbers every now and then! Fair trade if you ask me!

You're straw-manning my argument by focusing on the most irrelevant part. Not even going to mention mention that the FSF will step in and help in the case of a GPL violation because it honestly doesn't matter. There are countless FOSS projects out there (several of which I've had personal involvement in) that prove this is a non-issue. Frankly, there is no good argument for why any piece of software should be proprietary.

That's a bad argument for keeping any project closed source. If you license the code under a copyleft license like GPL then anyone forking code would also have to open source their project, making any improvements available to merged back into Plutonium. Not doing that is a copyright violation and you would have full rights to take legal action.
Anyone just copying code without making improvements and trying to sell it won't go very far. These things get called out pretty quickly and most people aren't going to pay for a lazy copy when the original is freely available.

I picked up WaW since I haven't played it since the PS3 way back in the day. Started playing through the campaign (w/ Pluto) and I can't help but notice how bad the audio sounds. Some of the guns sound okay but the voice lines in particular are super compressed. I don't remember it being this way on PS3.
Is this just an issue with the PC port? Was it like this on console and I just never noticed? Are there any mods to fix it?

Didn't realize that was a point of contention here. Sorry.

dualshock 3s are a bit more of a pain to use than a ds4/5. But there's guides on doing it. Try this:

replacing Rusty Cage is criminal

Agreed. I hope it's optional.
