Hi - is there any solution to the launcher claiming your password is incorrect - even when it is not? (I know for a fact my details are not incorrect, would appreciate if nobody suggests that it still is)
I know there is a solution I've used in the past, but I've forgotten it
ok so I got ID and password incorrect trying to login to launcher
but I can login to mogstation just fine
wtf?
there's a known issue with the launcher they're working on it
should be up though now 
you tried quicklauncher?
Anyone elase unable to login at all?
do you get booted to your desktop with no errors or anything?
yep, and then ask to reset my password
only for the launcher to not recognize my new password
still cannot login
Gentlemen, uhh...
Are there any Superlux HD681 drivers I should/need to install? This static is becoming annoying as fuck.
well i can use my launcher its just i have like 30 MB left to update the game but the speed is turned into 0.01 MBps and then got error
My sound 😦
has there been a solution to the dx11 crashes yet?

Saw this post for over a year ago but I've been scrolling through but none addressing this issue
@gusty stump im wondering about this alsop when IOs start the game on dx11 its giving me crackle sounds
dx9 is fine tho
dx9 is fine for me as well for the most part
but dx11 is tons of crashes
This problem has persisted for many years, there has to be a fix
yeha im not crashing per say just audio is really bad when opening up the game
I’ve had a similar issue and it turned out to be graphics drivers for some reason, try updating them and see if it still occurs
yeah I did that a few hours ago too. nothing
Are you using multiple monitors
just one
yeah apparently it looks like a fair amount
I have an ironic question....
first of all, i'm in my forties with no children.
Those of you from my generation concerned that your kids are being too plugged in or too cyber?
having a weird issue with dx11 client since my initial lobby kick the client no longer responds and simply crashes. dx9 version works fine but there are frame drops in areas with ungodly amount of people.
is there a way to reset the resolution setting or something without having to launch the dx11 client?
“When I saw Tim Cook was saying he’s worth nearly a billion dollars and he plans to give all of that away before he dies, I thought, ‘Well shit, he could start with us in AppleCare,’” a current employee says.
if a CEO gave his money to his employees, he wouldn't be able to get a tax deduction though
Just me who gets lobby error everytime im tryna log in? Like is it my computer/wifi or is there something else?
it's normal right now, it's going to be that way during peak times
no
does your cliant audio sound weird when opening up dx11 version?
besides, smart money is you donate all your money to charities
... charities that your relatives run and take a large cut for administration of 😄
This is how the audio sounds in dx11
doesn't come in pink, pass
matte black with hot pink pearlescent, obvs
I hate how automakers are making you pay for paint colors that should be free
How the fuck is black 1500 lol

just don't buy it
hello, after the update my DS4 won't work at all, anyone having this issue ?
i tried everything from steam to the in-game settings
did you try uninstalling the driver/device in device manager and then replugging it in
somehow this year they made pink wranglers
-barbie girl song plays-
I might not be buying pink cars myself, but I applaud the choice. The only other factory pink I know of is that porsche taycan pink
which is kinda hard to describe as a pink... but it's just like pink mary kay cars
I feel like that’s more of a uh... pale fuschia rather than a pink. But yea, odd color choice to be sure
Hello guys, I need some help
So for some reason I am having fps drops in some ffxiv cutscenes even tho I never had that before.
Fps drops to like 50-55 but its capped at 63 fps.
Never had that issue before.
Could it be related to the high amount of people today?
yes, also that's not a substantial drop so don't worry about it too much 
There a reason my FPS will go from like 45 to 30 then from 30 down to 9 then back up at random intervals? My GPU isn't running warm it's average temp. My CPU is running fine too and my RAM is fine as well yet the game won't hold a stable FPS especially in Trials and dungeons.
I also turned everything down as low as it can go and that hasn't improved it at all. Before now I could run at 45-60 FPS with just minor drops to 35-30 every now and then but this is a bit of an extreme drop imo
you doing EW?
hmmm idk then
would say it's the fps bug i keep getting but mine doesn't fluctuate like that
It's got me stumped honestly. I've tried everything I can think of and it still just randomly dips down to 9 then back to about 30-45 FPS.
try turning the graphics up clicking apply, then low and apply those
I did that before I went to work, didn't do anything.
Fuck, is that something they can fix with a patch or a hotfix? Or is it gonna just be an annoyance now?
Of course, might just wait a bit then. The constant FPS drops are annoying as fuck especially in the middle of a dungeon.
🤷♂️ up to you
I'm more annoyed at thr scratch crakle sound when I start ffxiv with dx11
I haven't had that
just went out and bought a new modem, I forgot I had an issue where anytime I loaded into an instance the game would DC and I kept getting packet loss, fuck arris
no but got it working updated the Nvidia driver and it worked
ran a winMTR with the new motorola modem, much better
hour and a half in queue only to DC and have to do it all over again
too much fun
the pain a lot are suffering now 
yeah updated my card also but nothing worked
are you using WHQL driver or beta
WHQL (Game Ready)
in any case gonna go have dinner with my old man, knowing it'll probably be 2 hours stuck in queue anyway

have fun
My queue: 4,170
sadge
Apparently inn room cutscenes don't keep you logged in now
Wonder if crafting still works
I mean more than likely but i can see them force dcing people
this may just be hyperbole but does it feel smoother for anyone else?
You want to afk using a craft you obviously don’t care about the mats Atleast that’s probably the thought process
In what sense
Oh, nah it’s worse there’s a bug for alt tabbing or whatever so it feels worse to me
I can handle losing an iron ingot
what bug is that? i'm alt tabbed rn
Yeah I’m just talking the thought process, not that people would care
Alt and tab was fine for me but I think I'm on borderless windowed
As in when you alt tab back framerate may not be restored fully
i see
Mine wasn’t working fully
Probably just radeon shit innit
oh i use borderless windowed actually
Would sometimes cap in the 40s then i alt tab back again and it goes up to 144
It didn’t do it before EW
I did
Haven’t had it on
Hmm I’ll try and see if the setting is glitched like my camera mode does
I only got 82 so far :/
getting my war to 80 first
80 or 90?
80
Just making sure
I’ve messed up levels lol
didn't quite make it before maint
Ah damn
was gonna do msq as drk but I think i'll go war now
I mean you could do two jobs with the msq for a bit
true
80-81ish area lasts a while
The msq is long could probably split between 2 jobs almost completely
It’s fun and annoying at the same time
Yeah it’s peak time…
oof
Bidori stating the obvious
Loser server?
Insight
ouf
has anyone tried that special sound gamepack yet?
does it really make a difference?
Canadian internet in a nutshell
What do you think 😛
I mean idk what they pay for lol it could be good
Most people in urbanized regions in the states get 600 mbps or more
God I remember sharing a connection with 4 people on 1.5 DSL
that was pain
I remember the days where my speed was shit… max download speed was 500kilobytes per secone
thats the server im on!
Its midnight, sleep time 
and I dc'd
my 4170 queue took like 75 mins
it should save spot in queue when it crashes, mine crashed 3-4 times
when the servers first opened it dc'd me like 7 times before i could log in lol
supposedly if you're quick enough it saves although idk about the validity of that
it'd be great if the game didnt kick you out from a lobby error
im just glad quick launcher exists, I remember having to retype my pass every fuckin time
damn, guess i'm not playing
error 2002
too bad its rng on if you can even back into queue

True
My luck is dead

the yaris GR is coming
I'm so excited even though it only comes in ICE versions
there's also apparently a corolla version that puts down 370hp 
Yaris sports car...

I wonder who kicked toyota in the ass to make fun cars again
And we don't even get the meme car in the US bah
probably decent since it's a turbo 3
it's also a rally car so it's probably got some enduro baked in
I suppose it can get away with that bc it looks like it weighs as much as a go-kart
toyota thinks the 3 cylinder is a more robust design for this because it lowers engine weight
they're using the same engine in the GR corolla variant too
My disk was full
oof
I installed a NVME drive SSD on my ps5 without a heatsink; the systems detected read speed is significantly lower than whats advertised
should I just return it?
max is 5500
PS5 says
3600-3800
max is 5600*
READ
What did you buy
Also you should be able to fit a slim heatsink on it still, just not the big chonker ones that are like a quarter inch thick

I don't trust their stuff as far as I can throw it. They've always been a low-end quality vendor
You shouldn't run into thermal throttling just on the initial test though I would think
PNY sucks
I suppose you could try blowing a fan at it without the case and see if that changes the results
I went the opposite direction for now and used an old HDD for external storage of PS4 games and archived PS5 I'm not playing atm
Has there been a fix for the sound issues yet? Only thing I can hear in game since Maint is bgm and system sounds
PNY for awhile was one of the best vendors, they were also the only 3rd party vendor that could sell Quadro cards but I have no clue about now days

Hahahaha
not sure where to ask but
what is up with gamepass on PC? i got like a hundred XVD drives in device manager
its making things slightly difficult, to say the least. keeps freezing controller inputs
yes
my input freezes coincide with the XVD drive being removed or inserted, which triggers a device manager refresh
drive/s
wonder if it goes away if i delete the gamepass games 
each one is a virtual drive for just that game
https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/djex2r/have_2_xvd_drives_that_appeared_in_my_device/ atleast going based on this thread
13 votes and 11 comments so far on Reddit
hmm. only have forza and like two more games
they said to disable them but idk 🤷♂️
well if you have 3 games from gamepass that makes sense
oh that is true
each one is a different drive
gonna try deleting them
lol okay
nearly got me killed in a dungeon 
appreciate the input 👍
sleep is for the weak 
crossposting from qnh, maybe possible to get an answer here
Hi. I am struggling with an issue right now - When I attempt to take a screenshot, I am given a Screenshot Failed error.
The screenshot folder reverts to Read-Only as soon as it is altered
Adding the game folder AND screenshot folder AND game process as exceptions in AV is not working.
Does anyone know the solution to this problem?
onedrive possibly
sorry, i neglected to mention - the issue was fixed by me reinputting the directory. Not sure why, but we take those, I guess
you guys think they'll do a patch for dx11?
Anyone here whos like a pc genius ? I wanna buy a new pc the next few weeks and dunno anything about that stuff lol
dx11 fine here
i have had no dx11 crashes also
yeah, i mean mine is my own fault lol so it's just you
do you have an obscure or niche hardware configuration?
inb4 5700 XT
😔

the dark age

5700XT!?
there are no geniuses here, but there are some nerds who know a bit

if you know nothing, buy a prebuilt
hi shue
aside: this endwalker shit is epic af
buy a prebuilt and then install an AIO
its alright, the constant 10 minute long cutscenes are getting old
truth
spoilers
is this a sega cd game
Buy a prebuilt and put rgb everywhere
I mean, this IS the game
this discord channel? I agree
worst cs was the unskippable one towards the end that was super boring
i watch the story after lol
nah, i prefer watching it all together
I mean its on the loadstone forms theres quite a fair amount of people with dx11 issues. My issue is when loading up the game..there's audio crackle as soon as the game opens. This never happened before 6.0
this is an example here
I mean, stick to there then if you don't want to answer basic questions
it has to be your drivers because i haven't encountered any of these issues 
I had a few people help me, tried everything for like over 10 hours. drivers updated. reinstalled the game, bios updated. video card updated..I switched usb ports..I tried different speakers
dx9 works fine but dx11 something is up
so you don't actually want help
unless I need a chipset or something
k
you have a chipset
what? I do want help? I never said I didnt
we all do
uhh sec
ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (Socket AM4) USB-C Gen2 AMD Motherboard
amd Radeon xt 6700
leave it alone 😭
you won't enjoy the replies you're about to get
I mean I have an amd gpu too
...jesus im looking for help not slander?

okay, and everything worked fine before? theres people that have amd and game works fine? besides that trying to figure out what maybe the issue here also. I also tried voice meter, audio switch nothing
real talk, AMD support is your best bet
have we tried shutting down and turning off the psu for a minute
they will never fix drivers unless they get hassled enough
True 
Same for nvidia though tbh
people need to bug SE and AMD, directly
jesus
take the wheel?
You know Jesus can't drive right

lol wtf
its an old meme, I think someone made abunch of these pictures for loved ones that passed away and some asshole just wrote text over them hahahaha
damn
some other tec dudes told me could be se fucked up because they did something new with the audio this expansion, could be windows bug idk
they added spatial audio
@south mantle the unfortunate reality is that Nvidia has roughly 4x the market share of AMD, but in this channel we see the literal opposite in terms of problems, EASILY 4x as many AMD problems as Nvidia
would never recommend AMD for FFXIV, it's fine for some people but the issues are disproportionate
besides talking about nvidia and amd, like this is the only place thats comparing, dont know why? because likke I mentioned everything worked fine before, trying to resolve the issue because im not the only one
okay you're really stuck on amd
well yes, it's a hardware and drivers issue
it's an honest thing 🤨
and i am using amd
you knew better and yet
it is not without ground that they say what they say lol
well i have had very few problems with my current gpu lol
and the problems i do have are my own fault 
and here's the thing, we compare because we've seen literally hundreds of people come here for help over recent months
we see trends
Which is mostly "amd be kinda sus with ffxiv"
right
okay I have a question if you can help
hi whats your question
could you tell me which device is the chipset driver? or maybe I dont have one?
you said crosshair viii right?
yeah crosshair viii hero
yeah this doesnt really help, go to asus' website and grab the chipset drivers
I would go to ASUS directly
i mean either works 
oh no no im there its just that..this is what it says heree
AMD Chipset driver V3.10.22.706 for Windows 10 64-bit, Windows 11 64-bit.(WHQL)
NOTICE:
Due to the different structure for drivers, suggest you remove the old driver first before install this version driver.
I would use Asus ones yeah
I was wondering since it said remove the old driver but im not sure if I have an old driover or not
oh okay use that
yeah yeah

did you use DDU when changing video drivers too? that may help
never had to do that for intel and nvidia
yeah but atleast for our cpus it doesn't run like the sun to get its specs 
lol
oh no I havent done any of this, so my question okay I have the .exe now..and im downloading the asus driver chipset..but I herd it can conflict with each other the audio from asus and amd or?
what do I do first?
chipset
AMD doesnt make audio drivers
the chipset will use Realtek
in 95 percent of the case
they don't but the drivers do have a driver it installs lol
the video card does audio
both packages will have the same audio driver
video card only does if you use HDMI out
wrong
DP
IT WILL BE INSTALLED
do we even know if they're using video card audio or motherboard audio
no
do they know?
I dunno

does the audio know
no
i don't need to imagine
okay so dont run the cleanup just run the chipset driver V3
Imagine having speakers
i'm doing that right now
the cleanup removes any drivers
"Hey guys"
open the windows
why yes I am watching hentai
blast it on your surround
oah okay, so just wondering run the chipset and after instal see if the problem continues with dx11?
I'VE HAD A ROUGH WEEK AT WORK AND MY GF IS HANGING OUT WITH HER FRIEND JEFF AGAIN
yes
yes 
I guess leave everything the way it is right? I just wanna make sure
okay thanks
at that point I would just go play something else
that's what you get for buying AMD
ouf
it isn't that lol
at 418 now
i'm just playing other games while it does the queue
lmao fuck you
you evil bastard


oh ncie it failed anyway lol

wtf
uh that isn't good
it said something about already installed
i have never had chipset fail to install 🤨
did you do the cleanup utility first...
^
no you said chipset first
but okay ill do the cleanup..and then what after?
cleanup -> chipset -> audio/gpu
you literally told us it said uninstall first...
okay
268 NOW
this queue is going to take forever lol
I dont even wanna play
time for lunch
ohh I need to do this in safe mode
no you don't
ideally you would
The amd cleanup utility needs safe mode
just disable windows updates 😎
or the driver will be loaded
It did when I did it
hmm idk
this sure sounds like a lot of work
that's just owning a pc in general lol
Literally told me "hey to finish uninstalling ima put your pc in safe mode so prepare your ass"
some PC's
lmao
I have never had this kind of stress updating a driver
-.-
I couldn't even begin to guess
you're supposed to be helpful mr tech mentor
Hank is a duck
my PC has worked flawless for the last 5-6 years now
my prior AMD configurations always needed dumb shit done to get things to work
JUST MY 2 CENTS
IM OLD NOW
I DONT HAVE TIME TO FIX SHIT
WELL EXCEPT AT WORK CAUSE THATS MY JOB
BUT THATS BESIDE THE POINT
my old nvidia 1060 had more problems than what i currently have so nah
had a amd driver crash 10 minutes after installing when I did a clean windows install
my 1070 has worked great, well aside from evga's terrible cooling fuck up that fried my first card
bruh, nobody cares about fortnite
Oh hey performance improvements for halo infinite
yeah
same lol
people definitely do care about fortnite
it's awful and the gunplay is shit
fortnite event in 3hrs
...
Shue its only cuz your kids play it
and my wife
the known issues seems good
Fortnite family?
the same issue that's been there since the feature release lmao
let's be real, you're absolutely deluded if you think fortnite isn't still massively popular
game is so accessible
that's cus you're old
i personally hate they direction fortnite has gone lol
When I got my XS Max years ago
not just their ceo
I tried fort nite
tim sweeney 🤢
Had no clue wtf I was doing
And I somehow got first place and I literally ran around lost the entire game
LMAO
fortnite is more popular than ever tbf
first game is a bot game
idk about that
most of the games i played had too many bots to enjoy
okay clean up is done..amd software is gone and all that. now is when I do the chipset..and then after install the latest graphics card driver right?
Fortnite refers to a videogame series, set in a post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested world. It is produced by Epic Games, and uses the company’s signature Unreal Engine. At present, there are two games that fall under the Fortnite umbrella: a team-based survival shooter called Fortnite: Save the World and Fortnite: Battle Royale, which as the name ...

how dare you come in here with your references and statistics
hyperbole is the language of the internet!
I'd say they're ticking over quite nicely
personal opinion!
Best game is space cadet pinball
sure they lost the ios players, but they're still making absolute fortunes
tbf this is registered not active
hmm chipset installation failed still..after cleanup
looking at their source it's roughly 80m monthly
wtf did you manage to do 
did it say why it failed?
idk what you told me..clean up and run chipset unless I have the wrong setup?
hmm
2,874,373 Players Online
that's pretty popular
and discounts your "bruh, nobody cares about fortnite"
it got some of it atleast
you don't even care about amd so you've had fortnite support shush
what
should I download the latest amd software first?
fortnite support has been in nvidia forever lol, plus dlss/rtx
i'm confused
you don't half talk some bollocks lol
what one were using?
the audio on your board is realtek and divorced from the chipset and the chipset driver isn't appropriate for the gpu
you mean my video card? the 6700

baseless claim
gets proved wrong
strawman
i still find it weird for the stats given this
but i mean it's possible 🤷♂️
Dreww are you using audio from your GPU or from the motherboard jacks?
GPU I believe
try audio from motherboard
here is why i don't believe your source but i could believe that there are still a lot playing
Bidori shut up, you're just looking silly, help the person
-.-
actually im sorry my bose speakers connect through usb and its on the motherboard yeah, but I also tried my soundbar which is connected through my tv through hdmi cable on the video card and same audio problem
yeah
to the latest?
yep did it about.. 5 days ago or so
yeah everything works fine. its just the moment dx11 version of ffxiv opens it gives me that audio crackle. I tested it with other games like genshin, I ran video playbacks..dx9 works fine too
I would suggest unplugging bose usb speakers, and the hdmi soundbar, and testing basic 3.5mm audio from mobo
okay boomer
wonder if my spakers has that plug
try it with headphones
just use a pair of heaphpones?
does this sound issue happen elsewhere too?
oh yeah I used a logitec headphones and the crackle sound is still there
if it's crackling it should be doing it for other devices as well otherwise it could be just that speaker
for dx11
usb wireless
try wired 3.5
because it could be usb that is the problem since amd had issues at one point with usb
I dont think I have one I gotta fine my old one lol but ill try that

the radeon software version I see an optinal and recommended I guess ill just do the recommended verison
worth a shot 🤷♂️
just curious did something even install;; with the chipset? from the previous picture I posted
yes
okay
the powerplan failed which really doesn't matter much
and another thing failed that might be more important 🤷♂️ but lets go with what we have for now
okay, downloaded the software now and assuming I gotta reboot, and ill try ffxiv dx11 again
yeah
@hard driftyep..dx11 still has the crackle sounds. tried wired headset and still there. changed my audio to my TV and changed the 48hz to the 44hz and crackle distortion sound still there.
yeah theres mutiple fourm post about dx11 audio issue as well
on the loadstone and reddit
guess just stalk the forums and wait for a mod to say how to fix or acknowledge it's an issue
Yeah, I have the same issue. It's just something we gotta deal with until they fix it or we see something new.
can't help much aside from what we tried since i don't/haven't had the issue 
yeah it is an issue. heres hoping SE has it on deck for fixing sometime this weekend 🙏
but i am sure there are other fires too
At the very least it's still playable
hotfixes will probably be in a week or two
i expect earliest is tuesday but they still have family and such for holidays so might be later
Plus it might not be super high on their priority list
There are definitely worse bugs to have
@hard driftdudeeeeeeeeeeeeee
no fucking way
look at this
Sound settings>Advanced sound options>App volume and device preferences, (with game open). Alternatively "Sound mixer options" typed up from the start menu
The "Outpout" box i have circled was blank. i changed it to my headset.
This may not work for everyone. i hope this helps somebody. If it works for you please...
its fixed
oh hell yeah, I'll try it lol
lmao like i said, stalk the forums
this is interesting ive been trying to figure this out too, ill give it a try when i get back ingame
From what I've noticed lots of fixes work different for everyone
did it work?
yesterday changing the equalizer settings around worked (mostly), but today it isnt so ive been trying literally anything else i could think of LOL hopefully this does something
yeah it worked
lol
shit happens 🤷♂️
WOWWW
thank you for linking this maybe itll work for me and if it does i owe you my life LOL
Hello, I'm trying to find out if i already preordered latest expansion. I have the game on steam. But can't figure out where to look to see if i already purchased it.
LET PEOPLE KNOW THIS IS SOLVED
good find @south mantle. your our hero
@deep sapphire want to pin that for now?
thanks to the fourms but yeah people need to know this here too
the dx11 audio issue theres a lot of people having my problem too
I was going to wait cause the audio noise was unbearable but that does definitely fix it
omg im so happy
pin what
Sound settings>Advanced sound options>App volume and device preferences, (with game open). Alternatively "Sound mixer options" typed up from the start menu

This may not work for everyone. i hope this helps somebody. If it works for you please...
that
ty

just so we can direct people for now
did you delete it at first lmao
no I pinned your message asking to pin it

lol
that's funny
no idea why that did that on dx11 what a simple..few click issue...and here I re installed everything...drivers..all that shit..im so upset but happy
i mean maybe you fixed other issues 
that'll learn you to come down to #technology-discussion
right guys!?
you just want out of a job already shush lol
NO

hank just doing a bad job so he can get fired smh
they won't replace him anyway
As long as I don’t get mentor
I'm sure you won't
Rude 😭
i heard things die even quicker 
i'm in a constant state of pain queue
hi guys, is it possible for the PS5 to reach 120 hz for FFXIV?
possibly but depends on resolution and congestion 
cuz a friend of mine has a monitor that goes up to 200hz at least, and ps5 can go up to 120 hz. Though his game still capped at 60hz
Think you also need hdmi 2.1
what resolution
you do yeah
unless the monitor is very new i doubt it will have that
doesn't the game also have to support it for ps5?
yeah same thing i was just reading
1080p
ffxiv doesn't have support for it seems plus i doubt it has 2.1
Anyone have issues with sound cutting out in large scale battles. Specifically PC combat sounds. I just did the first trial and my timing on roatation was all over the place because of lack of audio queues
Sound settings>Advanced sound options>App volume and device preferences, (with game open). Alternatively "Sound mixer options" typed up from the start menu
The "Outpout" box i have circled was blank. i changed it to my headset.
This may not work for everyone. i hope this helps somebody. If it works for you please...
no idea if it's the same but might help
Its fine most the time, but in large fights like Bozja they cut short. Did the first EW trial and its the first trial in the game to cut my audio like Bozja
ill try it anyway, thanks
awesome, ill relay the information u guys provided me thanks!
for the record, unfortunately this fix didnt fix this issue for me - still experiencing bad audio stuttering during big fights. at this point i think itll just be something to report and hope they address soon LOL
yeah, only other thing we can say is check forums and see if someone has a fix
Yeah. I'm checking forums as much as I can, I'll let you know if I see anything
good place to keep a snack
I have a duck in my freezer actually
it's part of my xmas dinner maybe
awwww so cute XD
hiii

omg
let me read
But that seems like a sound fix?
The problem is the general instability of DX11 and the crashes
just checking in if any solution has been found
AMD GPU? 5600/5700xt?
No, Nividia
you're just in an unlucky minority then, it's usually AMD users with directx crashes
On the forums and reddit the majority of post are both AMD and Nividia
I still haven't found a source that it's a majority of AMD having that problem.
Do you have one?
the people who come in here asking for help
Ah okay.
Nvidia has 4x the market share, but I'd say it's easily the inverse of people coming in here with directx crashes, far more AMD users
Yes, but the Dx11 crashes are both AMD and Nividia, i'll come back tomorrow and see
Vega?
you are extremely unlikely to get a solution in here by tomorrow, we've been seeing this for many months and your mostly likely solution is to hassle both SE and nvidia
I'm fully aware, I've been having this problem for months also
And i've asked several times
but what else can i do?
this problem has persisted for YEARS
for directx issues we can literally only parrot the same advice, update drivers, turn off audio enhancements, reinstall windows, etc
and SE wont make any sort of announcement
or recognize it even
I've done all of that + all of the stuff in the reddit post
we're literally just players, you need to hassle the people you're paying money to
coming in here daily won't achieve shit, harsh reality
It doesn't harm to put a message here once ever other day does it?
Who knows
someone might have found something
this is group therapy lol
you know this is not an official support channel or anything, right?
actually, my dad's uncle's cousin is lead systems engineer at square-enix, he's fixing this problem right now
your posts have made a difference
we're helping out of the goodness of our hearts
people come in here with weird expectations like we're getting paid for this or something
It's not like we are asking you specifically
I'm just putting up a post in case someone knows of a fix
doesn't have to be you.
Keep on at SE support and Nvidia and Microsoft
you know, the people who can actually fix it
well duh
the people you have paid money to
more like coming in here and complaining like we're SE employees and have direct source code access to fix whatever problem
and giving us attitude like 'well duh' is really not going to be well received
who knows why DX11 mode shits the bed occasionally, I bet SE's engineers don't either
if they knew they would have fixed it
probably lmao
hitting some kind of power limit or something and crashing the driver
it's an SE spaghetti code issue
and you can stick your passive aggressive ?'s too, Merineth
you get no more help from me, that's for sure
I'm just here to talk about cars lmao
why can't SE just make the lobby server bigger 6head
Ah what a shame, it was such good "help"
aiyo, I wanted to talk to hankku about the GR yaris anyway

I don't offer help because I'm one of those people where everything Just Works like 99.999% of the time so I don't know any of the issues people have or the workarounds
my interest in playing google meta-fixer is actually an infinitesimal value
it's all good, I'll just carry on playing FFXIV crash free and laugh at entitled people who can't
honestly, you couldn't pay me to do tech support anymore
expansion is great btw
i actually quit my job recently... i wasn't even tech support, but a network engineer, but i got tired of people using me as their techsupport to do their jobs because they suck and don't know how to google lol
i mean... these were other network "engineers"... 
i didn't mind so much at first, but it became way too frequent 😦
yup... it's like you are their crack...
damn, no hankku though
I wanted to talk to someone about cars even though hank only wants to hump his 83 chevy truck
lol
anyone know any programs or widget that makes it so where your icons disappear on your desktop with just a double click? Im not sure if rocketdock or rainmeter does that or not.
not that, when I double click the desktop my icons disapear and doubleclick icons come back.
just forgot which program I used for that
found it

hopefully this means i can upgrade cpu soon
Hey guys question. I did something and now my chat does not change its speaking channel i.e. (say,tell,party, etc.) with Tab instead it pulls up this thing with (language, greetings, roles) how do I go back.
Why is it I can hear music only but no dialog,fighting sounds etc in the game
are you using virtual surround or windows spatial audio
https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2021/12/valve-shows-off-final-packaging-carrying-case-for-the-steam-deck/
I really dig their choice of packaging
Just windows spatial I think
i love it when the protective packaging is a reusable case instead of a useless disposable hunk of plastic
Wait im wrong I just using speakers no headphones
Everything was working last night and when I finally get into the game the vocal and attack sounds and such stopped working but music is playing
Check the pinned comments someone posted a forum post that can fix some weird sound issues that’s been happening
Otherwise if you have the wrong sound channel set for your speakers you’ll have audio playing in speakers that don’t exist
ok I will check into it ty for the advice
np hope you can resolve it 😄
When are the Steam Deck sales starting then?
Ah, the article mentions Feb 2022 at the earliest. Can't say I'm surprised the date got bumped.
I can't remember if I reserved in time for the first month or the 2nd month
