Wow... that's REALLY bad. Like I've seen questionable decisions before, but silent single-decimal rounding by default is really inexcusable.

[addestroyer]

Yeah, that's really dumb.... I could understand it on big values where it doesn't matter much, but if it's <= 0.1 that's literally when that value matters the most...

Anyone here good at explaining python?

[Kurausukun]

I'm reasonably well-versed in Python, but it depends on what you need help with. If you just want a "getting started" tutorial, then I'm sure Google can give you plenty of options. Python is honestly the easiest language to learn IMO. But if you have a specific question, I can try and answer it.

Nah I was thinking more along the lines of when I'm running into a brick wall when writing code for  something.

That happens to me all the time, but sometimes all you need is a suggestion to get the solution you need.

Exactly.

LOL, I just wrote a PS script a week ago to update Dolphin for myself. Almost immediately made irrelevant.

At least I made one for RPCS3 as well.

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

The scripts are meant to be run one level above the emulator's directory.

Dolphin:

Code:

wget -O dolphin.html https://dolphin-emu.org/download
Select-String -Path dolphin.html -Pattern https://dl.dolphin-emu.org/builds/dolphin-master-.*.7z -AllMatches | % { $_.Matches } | % { $_.Value } | select-object -First 1 >>dolphin.txt
$dolphin
$dolphin = Get-Content dolphin.txt -First 1
wget -O Dolphin.7z $dolphin
Get-ChildItem Dolphin.7z | % {& "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" "x" $_.fullname "-oDolphinTemp"}
Rename-Item -Path ".\DolphinTemp\Dolphin-x64" -NewName Dolphin
Copy-Item -Path ".\DolphinTemp\Dolphin" -Destination "." -Recurse -Force
del DolphinTemp -Recurse
del dolphin.txt
del dolphin.html
del Dolphin.7z

RPCS3:

Code:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
wget -O rpcs3.html https://rpcs3.net/download
Select-String -Path rpcs3.html -Pattern https://ci.appveyor.com.*.7z -AllMatches | % { $_.Matches } | % { $_.Value } | select-object -First 1 >>rpcs3.txt
$rpcs3
$rpcs3 = Get-Content rpcs3.txt -First 1
wget -O RPCS3.7z $rpcs3
Get-ChildItem RPCS3.7z | % {& "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" "x" -aoa $_.fullname "-oRPCS3"}
del rpcs3.txt
del rpcs3.html
del RPCS3.7z

If anyone wants to critique these go ahead. I wouldn't really call myself a programmer.

It's already merged ? Neat.

What you did is more affiliated to sysadmin work rather than programming

Wasn't sure whether to post here or the Random thread. Forgive me.
