The best and most functional slicer at the moment (imho) is OrcaSlicer. I use it exclusively, especially since it has a ready-made profile for my printer.

Well, I canât believe I missed this thread until now, in the last few days I went ahead and updated some game packages:
DevilutionX is now at version 1.5.4, this is an incredibly good source port for good old Diablo (and Hellfire) and works flawlessly in Haiku.
Compared to other systems weâre just missing the ZeroTier protocol for multiplayer, which relies on an external library I wasnât able to compile last time I tried.
GemRB has also been updated to 0.9.4, itâs an Infinity Engine emulator that can run Baldurâs Gate 1 & 2 and Icewind Dale 1 & 2 very well, while iirc Planescape: Torment doesnât run as well on it. As far as I know this port is feature-complete.
PrBoom+ now compiles on 32-bit and should be up on HaikuDepot. I decided to port this Doom sourceport some months ago because Chocolate Doom is great but barebones and GZDoom runs horribly without hw acceleration on this pc.
Unfortunately thereâs something finicky about the way PrBoom+ handles audio I couldnât solve so this port only outputs MIDI with Opl2 which sounds pretty poor imo.
The old Freeciv port for Haiku had write issues with its settings folder, so I updated it and made an inelegant fix for it, then fortunately korli came in and decided to patch the issue out properly.
Last but not least, today I updated the Battle for Wesnoth port to 1.18.4, the new recipe is waiting on haikuports but Iâm positive itâll pop up on HaikuDepot pretty soon.

ZeroTier protocol is bad, it depends on proprietary service and account, it is implemented like a chimera in DevilutionX, there are better methods to play multiplayer, not all OS use ZeroTier protocol, many disable it.
Didnât know about the specifics of ZeroTier. In that case I hope theyâll think about implementing some other, free-er, multiplayer protocol, as the alternative to ZeroTier now is just the ancient TCP/IP protocol which is far from ideal.
Thanks @3dEyes for this update

Hmm, how many years of learing programming does it take to do this kind of stuff? 
For me personally, Iâm still trying to figure out how to write âHello world!â in cpp.

Well, you probably speak about âprogrammerâ in broader sense of the word. You know, somebody programs in C++ / Java, somebody in Python / Ruby, somebody in Bash / Swift, somebody in Makefile / CMake / Jam / Ninja, somebody programs in Word / Excel / Outlook / Teams / Zoom / Thunderbird / etc.
Probably, there are more âprogrammingâ skills. But I observed when a programmer learns to program in languages from the last category, he / she forgets how to program in all the rest of languages

I can write hello world in about a dozen languages, so i am a much better programmer

Thatâs nothing. I can cut and paste Hello World from Rosetta Code in almost every language ever made!

Thatâs nothing, I can get AI to hallucinate hello world in thousands of languages that donât even exist!

@johan and me showed TheAwesomeResizer (aka âTAResizerâ) a bit of love and made some small improvements to its usability and visuals.
Changes for v3.4:
- Minor GUI and label changes, adding separators and grouping effects
- A click on the image window shows an open file dialog
- Processing indicator in window title
- Zoom button in window title to resize window to fit in screen
- Better visibility of selection window by alternating colors
- Improved resize handling
- Added button to open Translator settings
- Smaller steps when in/decreasing brightness and darkness
- Added translations, thanks all translators!
And even more modest is a minor update to Filer.
In v1.4 I just decreased the minimal size of its Replicant by using a smaller font and dropping the âDropzoneâ label, which can be quite large for some languages. Speaking of which, some new translations were added as well, thanks all translators!

I wanted to test the new version of TAResizer; unfortunately, it seems that catalogs have been omitted during packaging. I didnât check Filer but if it is also first localized version, I guess that it may be the same.
Thanks Starcrasher, a new revision is built as we speak. It was only the French translations for TAResizer that were missing⌠Mon Dieu!
