XCOM spiritual successor Warhounds dumps its gen-AI portraits, and I’m breathing a sigh of relief

Everplay is developing a turn-based strategy game called Warhounds, inspired by classics like XCOM and Jagged Alliance. The game faced criticism during its Steam Next Fest demo for using generative AI for character portraits, which were described as "shiny, unrealistic, and completely at odds with the look of the game." In response to community feedback, Everplay clarified that the AI-generated portraits were temporary placeholders and announced plans to replace them with over 100 hand-crafted designs. The new portrait system will create images directly from each character's in-game 3D model, ensuring visual consistency and accommodating custom recruits. Warhounds features an accuracy system that calculates bullets individually, eliminating random misses, and introduces meaningful consequences based on player decisions. The game is set for release in 2026, with a wishlist option available on Steam and a free demo for players.

I’m wondering how far the Windows 11 modding community will go before Microsoft finally listens

Windows 11, launched over four years ago, has faced user dissatisfaction due to its limited features and stringent hardware requirements, leading to sluggish adoption rates. Some users are considering switching to free alternatives like Linux. In response to criticism, Microsoft is rolling out updates to improve user experience, including allowing users to bypass updates during installations and reintroducing features like a movable Taskbar. Despite these efforts, some experts suggest that Microsoft should focus on developing "Windows 12" instead. The backlash against Windows 11 has led to a rise in third-party tools and modifications, such as Start11 and Rainmeter skins, which enhance personalization and functionality. Social media platforms showcase the popularity of these third-party solutions, indicating a thriving community-driven innovation in response to the operating system's limitations.

The Windows 11 customization scene is thriving because Microsoft won’t give users what they want

Windows 11 initially faced criticism for its limited features and slower adoption rate due to stringent hardware requirements. Microsoft has encouraged users to transition from Windows 10, which is no longer supported, to ensure they receive updates and security patches. In response to user feedback, Microsoft has begun implementing changes, such as allowing users to bypass updates during setup and reintroducing features like a movable Taskbar. Despite these efforts, many users feel that Windows 11 has reduced personalization options, leading to the development of third-party tools and mods to restore removed features. Notable third-party products include Start11 for the Start menu and various skins available on platforms like Reddit and X. The Rainmeter Windows 12 skin has gained popularity, offering a futuristic look for Windows 11.

This new app may free Galaxy Watch owners from Samsung’s phone-locked features

A new application called the GeminiMan Wellness Companion has been developed for Galaxy Watch users by Dante63, who previously created a patched version of the Samsung Health Monitor. The app allows users to record electrocardiogram (ECG) data from the Galaxy Watch, providing detailed reports and AI-driven analysis through a mobile app. It can track heart rhythm and rate, flagging abnormal rhythms, which the Samsung Health Monitor does not. Users can personalize their measurements with notes and create multiple profiles for different users. The app ensures data security through encryption and offers export options for ECG reports in CSV or PDF formats. Future updates will include blood pressure recording and additional health metrics like blood oxygen levels and sleep patterns. The development roadmap is available on the GeminiMan Wellness Companion GitHub page.
