General screenshot thread

Very surprised this is a rare achievement, apparently not a lot of people have finished the DLC

this is my favourite type!, a screen shot after ai generated software colourises unblurs photos! from the holocaust, its almost astounding, that these people are 'young' again, this is ursula who was in sobibor death camp and survived

OK. I'll bite. And it's a non violent game unless you want it to be violent. It's a very similar game to MineCraft called MineTest. It's free open source software and I spent an unbelievable amount of hours on it.

Here's a screenshot of a scale model of Angkor Wat that I built in the game. If you want to run around inside it you can, I'm including a copy of the game below. In that game is a world called Bucket City that you can explore, entirely built by me.

This is a precompiled version of minetest to run on 64 bit Linux systems. It's not a Windows version.

Simply extract the minetest folder to somewhere on your computer, the executable to run the game is simply called minetest and you'll find it in the minetest/bin folder.

Read the ReadMe.txt file for how to satisfy the game's dependencies before trying to play.

There's a cool mod for it called node craft, discover everything yourself no wiki.

Not very happy with this DLC, it's not really that good.

But well, I can officially say I've beaten every single DOOM Game (no mods) and it's DLC

My steam page is plastered with the worst screenshots of all time, from the worst games of all time

I remembered I had these on an old hard drive. Here are a few weird ones from GTA San Andreas on PS2 that I took waaaay back around 2005. There was an in game camera and it saved jpegs to the memory card. To get the photos from the memory card onto a PC, I used an action replay cheat disk with a memory card management utility and a USB stick, then a PS2 save file utility on PC.

I used an action replay code that let the player recruit anyone as a gang member and they behaved exactly like the Grove Street gangsters. I used to head to the army base, recruit 3 soldiers and drive around in a Humvee and take pictures of our exploits.

Then there was the Bigfoot myth. I took these pictures to try to convince people that Bigfoot was actually in the game. It was just the top of a tree sticking out over the top of a hill, but at the right angle I thought it could look like Bigfoot!

Wow, this is an incredible blast from the past. Bonus points for going the extra mile and retrieving those files, too! I didn't even know you could do that prior to those other memory card tools that appeared later on!

Yes, that action replay set was so much fun, so much more that just cheat codes. I wasn't even really that interested in infinite lives, infinite health etc, I just liked all the other cool stuff (including a certain minigame that could be unlocked, named after a warm beverage, if you remember that ) I even downloaded 100% completion saves for other games and used another PC utility to convert them from NTSC to PAL. Not bad for 2005, before PS2 modchips and softmods really took off. Those action replay, codebreaker and gameshark devices were what got me into tech in the first place, back on Gameboy and N64.

It's so crazy to me that a lot of those devices were just amazing hack tools cloaked as cheat devices -- I'll never forget the day when I figured out you could just swap discs out with a Gameshark on the ps1 as if it was one of those devices that people in the know were spending loads of money on! And the original Codebreaker, too!

I had tried to do similar things as you on the OG Xbox circa 2005, but I was apparently way too dumb at the time. I just remember the stack of crazy devices I had sticking out of the controller's memory card port so that I could save files to a CF card and attempt to migrate them to a PC (this is the part where I failed!). I wish I had a picture of the ridiculous contraptions I ordered from eBay at the time, because they were gigantic.

Were you using trackers and things like that back in the day? I completely missed the bus on that one at the time, too!

Yes, you name it, me or a friend probably had it! And probably still do in a box somewhere. No wonder the game companies cracked down on those things, the best one was hacking the New 3DS XL using the Action Replay for the original DS and a magnet.

Speaking of the OG Xbox, it can be hacked using a PSP! With a modified USB cable connected to a controller port. I have one on my desk right here next to me, refurbished and ready to be modded at some point, also with a better fan and green LEDs.

Screenshot taken from Tomb Raider 2, one of the classic Tomb Raider games released back in the late 90s and the turn of the century.

The reboot of Tomb Raider and its sequels I found were okay in my opinion, but those games play too much like the Uncharted series. The classic games though, they don't hold your hand for a minute. No maps to guide you, no time limit and no rush, and you have to figure most of it out on your own. Not particularly hard games, but not a walk in the park either.

I had no idea there were mods for these games after all these years, but I've got both Tomb Raider and Tomb Raider 2 modded and ready to play. I've got Tomb Raider 3 as well, but I still need to find some mods for that one so I can get it up to date for the 21st century.

I have never heard of the magnet trick, but that sounds hilarious! Also, just the idea of hacking one system with another is a whole new level of insanity -- in fact, I think the only 'cool' / useful thing I ever did in this category was import old Ps1 save files from a music game to a USB stick via the Ps2 (post exploit days, of course!) just so I could record the aftermath on a PC emulator -- and even that hurt my brain at the time!

Also, I remember always wanting to do those cool Xbox LED mods, too! They made them look so incredibly cool at the time, and I bet they still are!

The Switch can be hacked using a paper clip, but I'll get to that in future!

I also just found out that it is possible to use a Genesis/Megadrive controller on the PS3 without modding, just by using a USB adapter for PC. It is also possible to use a Master System controller and even an Atari 2600 joystick!

Anyway, onto some of my custom LED and fan mods! They show up as purple on camera, but they are actually blue, same colour as the Wii LED.

The Wii LED mod isn't that exciting, just a resistor soldered between the front panel LED connector and ground on the motherboard to keep the LEDs on all the time.

Now, back to screenshots, I took a couple when I had the PS2 out.

Look at that date, 2003! My original memory card still going strong!

Today I learned that Halo was almost on Dreamcast!

I beat the Pokémon League in Pokémon Polished Crystal a couple days ago.

Of course, that means I'd just beaten half the game
