Coding Snacks / Custom WinPE build
« on: August 06, 2018, 07:08 AM »
Using the Win10PE SE tool (available here: http://win10se.cwcodes.net) I have been trying with frustratingly little success to create a custom WinPE build to act as a lightweight OS for an arcade cabinet.

I experimented a little with someone else's custom WinPE build called "Bob.Omb's Modified Win10PE" (available here: https://goo.gl/bs3rUA). Using that build and a few downloaded .dll files I was able to run frontend Launchbox (available here: www.launchbox-app.com) as well as a number of emulators.

The problem with using Bob.Omb's build is that it was intended to be used as recovery media and is loaded with a tonne of applications for recovery purposes; but it did show me that what I want to achieve IS possible. Seemingly though, I'm very out of my depth :( Which is why I am here. If anyone out there would be willing to take on this WinPE build for me I would pay for your efforts, if I'm able to match what you think it's worth.

Hi guys,

This is my first post.  I love the concept of this site :)

If some of you guys are old enough to remember the golden era of video games then like me you may be grumbling that games these days are made to be too easy.  I get why they do it.. They want the game to be more accessible, and therefore sell more copies. It's a good business model but unfortunately can often make for hypo-ludic gameplay :(

My girlfriend and I played Borderlands together.  I thought it had potential to be a really great game but one thing absolutely spoiled the experience for me: Death incurs far too little penalty..  This bugged me to the point that when Borderlands 2 was released and my girlfriend asked me if I wanted to play it with her, the first thing I asked was "Have they changed the penalty for dying? Or is it still just a monetary percentage?" When she said "You still just lose money", I said "Sounds shit."

I am hoping someone here may have the know-how and the interest to create a small mod for Borderlands and/or Borderlands 2 to increase the penalty for dying by losing a percentage of acquired experience points, thereby making the game more challenging. I currently earn very little, but will donate what I can to the cause.

What say you, good people?
