Did maintenance on the arcade pc (now named Peach Cola) last night. Reinstalled the OS, system updates, and updated StepMania as well. Also removed the r21 song packs and added a bunch of Touhou and Vocaloid song packs. Unfortunately this caused an oddity: The lights on the dance pads are now offset and I am unsure why. I filed an issue on the PIUIO driver GitHub page.
Software-wise, I did this upgrade so that I could start streaming. And technically it works. OBS captures both the game footage and my webcam footage just fine. However, there is a problem... the dinky little Celeron I have in Peach Cola is not up to the task of streaming. It plays StepMania just fine, x264 rendering is a no-go. I'm currently searching various avenues for a used Haswell i5.
In the mean time, I did 10 rounds today and am in the process of doing some minor tweaks to the preferences. I think I need to adjust the GlobalOffset value a bit.
Played 6 songs but my PIUIO died on me twice so I got angry and closed the game before I could get a screenshot. >:[
Late submission! Did another 6 songs today (technically 7 but my PIUIO died during the first song...). Tried an expert 10 but, well, yeah.. :P
Late submission! I've been a bit out of it for a few days, but I'm trying to catch up with everything starting with my StepMans obligations~
Late submission! I played 9 songs with Rory. Finally solved my flickering issues: Korora auto logs in to Wayland instead of Xorg even though the login option in the login screen says Xorg! So when I run Linux under Xorg, all my video issues go away.
Streaming works! I can stream at 30fps while the game maintains 60fps. I am going to spend time trying to fix the flickering now as it is becoming unbearable. Rory and I played 9 songs tonight.
I did a system upgrade today and tested it out by playing a song. I had to babysit this evening so I won't get a chance to play again :(
