Not that i’ve ever heard as a resident of Kansas. But “je ne sais quoi” doesn’t come up in my life often.

Most consonant-only syllables are forbidden, so i think i will use the non-syllabic consonants as numerals.

Yes, though something that can render in 3D would be nice for visualizing what the data mean. And while that works for 3D, suppose you need something with a fourth axis. You would have to add another level of tabs to keep your tabs in for each new dimension. Not that you’d usually need more than like 5D, but still.

Minecraft is not a serious solution. I could get it to work but it would be terribly uncomfortable to read and edit, almost certainly worse than layered 2D spreadsheets.

Currently i’m making a constructed language and trying to work out what all the possible syllables are given the fairly simple syllable structure. There are tools specifically for this, but there have been other times when a 3D spreadsheet would have been very helpful even if i can’t still remember what problem i had.

Another example, also for constructed languages, is tables of conjugations and declensions in fusional languages. That is, a language where a single prefix or suffix indicates a specific case, person, number, etc. and there are a bunch of these that need to be mapped out.

I’d like to mention:

PolyGlot, a computer program for organizing (con)langs and generating words, with support for things like logographies and a quiz generator. My biggest problem with it is it doesn’t handle Unicode input super well on Linux, so sometimes i have to copy and paste phonetic symbols.

Omniglot, an encyclopedia of natural and constructed writing systems. Good if you need inspiration for your own script.

@early_riser’s work on xenolangs or exolangs. Most conlangs are made with humans in mind, or with Humans-But-With-A-Weird-Forehead (see most Star Trek aliens), which is about the same if what you’re interested in is speech organs. It’s rarer to find someone who considers what a more realistic alien language would sound like.

One piece of potentially helpful information i think you forgot is, what is your controller?

What are the differences between Xbox and Playstation if i’m just using both for movies?

Do you use your domain for anything besides a website?

Thanks. Since you didn’t link to it, those approved TLDs seem to be here.

Hard to say, i’ve never used reWASD. There’s another program called Input Remapper that i haven’t used for games but which is supposed to be like AntiMicroX but for keyboard, mouse, and gamepad inputs and outputs going both ways. So i can make my keyboard an Xbox controller, my Wii U controller a keyboard, my mouse a pair of DK Bongos probably, and so on. But i don’t know how to make it work without sudo access (apparently some programs need that and some don’t to mess with inputs) so i don’t like using it.

Some people don’t like Steam running in the background. My last computer was so weak it couldn’t run light weight games through Steam because of the extra resource usage.

AntiMicroX for converting gamepad inputs to keyboard inputs. I pretty much only use it for Super Smash Flash 2.

Thanks, i’ll try that.

Ok, it seems like that email address doesn’t exist. That’s not great. I included Tim in the same email so hopefully that works out.

Thanks, i’ll try that.

No mention of M&M Kart or Super Bombad Racing⸮

Cemu isn’t the only game that breaks with this controller, and if i could just set right stick right to C stick right, i wouldn’t have ever noticed this issue for Cemu. I’ll bear this in mind though if every Linux build of every game i’m interested in playing announces support for DS4 though.

I’m using AntiMicroX. This doesn’t work though. Hollow Knight picks up on the controller pretty soon after it’s plugged in. Sounds like Steam Input will be my best option for now.

Probably deafult settings for Steam Input. I’ve had troubles with that breaking games before.

I wanted to use USB-C so everything is hot swappable. From what i’ve read audio cables aren’t great for that.

I do have a USB hub already so i could just make these 3 separate boards instead of a 3 part split. It would mean a few more wires on my desktop but i don’t mind that too much. Especially if i make the pad wireless.

My current layout for an ANSI board moves the home row up and i type the bottom two rows (space & QWERTY ZXCV…) with my thumbs, so i don’t think it’ll be too bad. If i’m wrong i can move all those characters to other keys on the hyper layer.
