[SEE NEW THREAD]

[midnight tide]

I might skip it we'll see...

[wet crane]

it certainly helps but yea it's not a must pull

[midnight tide]

like Mornye or Sk basically

weapon is optional if you have 5 star standard weapon

[wet crane]

nah it's better than those by a long shot

[midnight tide]

I mean yeah she's a sub dps after all

[wet crane]

Phrolova disagrees haha

[midnight tide]

I will slap static mist on her and call it a day I think

[midnight tide]

this statement is true only for pure support character

I forgot Ciaconna is actually a sub dps

[wet crane]

yea super fast rotation subdps

almost as fast as Sanhua (If you do a quick sawp combo during the rotaion)

[midnight tide]

I will pul her especially since I dont have Lynae anymore in my Iuno team so

[midnight tide]

Sunhua is crazy fast i dont think a character can ever be faster than that

unless it doesnt use skill or echoes

[wet crane]

Mornye is really fast too

but her Liberation animation is long

[midnight tide]

Mornye I dislike the long animation of her forte

you cannot cancel it with your ult

[wet crane]

you can cancel it with your ult

[midnight tide]

it doesnt bring you the concerto value

according to my testing

if you ult before the animation goes off

[wet crane]

just wait for the "floor effect"

before cancelling

[midnight tide]

it doesnt give you the concerto

[midnight tide]

yeah but that's basically the end of the animation at that time

xD

like I was doing it 0.5s too early (canceling with ult) and the concerto didnt fill up proprely

[wet crane]

https://youtu.be/e6RKXqPhjU4?si=Qv9TiPUlIu5mfrVq&t=50

it's her liberation animation that's annoyingly long

[midnight tide]

wait

he doing the forte after the ult ?

🤔

but yeah the liberation is her longest animation by far

Lynae on mooncloud ??

[wet crane]

oh yea

[midnight tide]

what am i even watching

[wet crane]

this is a day one video XDD

this guy is just using w/e echos most of the time

but his rotations are good

[midnight tide]

overcaping crit rate on mornye but fine ig

yes

I mean mornye Lynae Iuno team is easy to play

[wet crane]

Moonlit is like 2-3% weaker

lol

not much

[burnt oyster]

i have coral but im not investing in mornye sig nor sequence

gonna keep my acc maleless as well so

more excuse to save pulls

if sigrika cant pair with anyone but luuk then good bye to her ig

got like 50k on the new mode but i'm too lazy to play my weak teams to get more

[wet crane]

but you are a dolphin

[burnt oyster]

how so

not even s0r1 all of them

[wet crane]

ah

I thought all of them are at S0R1 min

[burnt oyster]

most of them has but

mornye/zz doesn't

mornye sig is not a good p/p

i'd rather go vertical amy to s3 if i want budget power

but you generally dont need the last rewards of the mode anw

[wet crane]

fashion is more important

than stats

[burnt oyster]

i can't even see her swing the weapon xD

so thats why

[wet crane]

she uses her weapon

[burnt oyster]

like its one animation that has it

wasn't it

[wet crane]

but yea you are in air most of the time

😄

[wet crane]

she uses it on the ground

to attack

[burnt oyster]

i want to grab amy bike skin

just for the chassis

[wet crane]

it looks horrendous imo

oh for the chassis

well yea

[burnt oyster]

got the moon something spending stickers

just not the chasis for that

[wet crane]

I don't like these character skins on the bike

[midnight tide]

You have way more character than a standard player

[rustic oriole]

fund me too

[midnight tide]

So dolphin is accurate to me

[burnt oyster]

maybe for late comer

[midnight tide]

I mean I guess it depends on the definition ig

[burnt oyster]

i just do mp usually

no bp

[wet crane]

bike skins:

[burnt oyster]

sometimes top up if i really really want something and lost 5050

but like it only happened once

lots of red

idk how people get so lucky with this game

[rustic oriole]

Gws

[midnight tide]

You’re defo luckier than me

[wet crane]

I'm on a lucky roll atm

[rustic oriole]

LMAO

[wet crane]

it won't last tho 🙁

[midnight tide]

I won 2 50/50 as a day one player

[burnt oyster]

if i won 3 times

i know next one i lose 100%

[rustic oriole]

if it was like for flight / bike / futuer stuff

I feell like its worth

but just for bike .. idk :/

THE BODY IS RLLY NICE THO

[midnight tide]

Yeah basically I ve seen people winning 3 times in a row then lose 6 in a row

This game is rigged with 50/50

[wet crane]

I won the last 3 50/50 🫣

but I lost 10 other in a row

[midnight tide]

I bet you aint winning the next one

Well see

[wet crane]

hold my beer

[burnt oyster]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1240527759189475418/1471112209634562192/image.png?ex=698f1102&is=698dbf82&hm=64e7c7236fb0b6c664098dbd9d43018cc84a72b01bf42f2e9d2ca4652c0b01ec&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=3128&height=1806

ye

[midnight tide]

I lost 10 in a row and won on Aemeath and got her weapon in 10 pulls

[burnt oyster]

if this isn't rigged

idk what is

what's the odd for this to even happen

[midnight tide]

It should not be allowed to happen in the first place

And yeah this is really sus

[wet crane]

I used that one we got for "free"

XD

[midnight tide]

The exact same rolls

[wet crane]

crit damage and attack% was fixed

[burnt oyster]

ye ik it's 100% not photoshopped cuz it happened right on my acc

😭

[midnight tide]

If you could select the substat then it would be kinda worth it

[burnt oyster]

that's the pain part

30 coral as a lesson

[wet crane]

it's mega random for 60 corals

[midnight tide]

Yeah i dont even bother buying one

Poor value

[wet crane]

I was just lucky again lol

[burnt oyster]

ye one was enough

i'm just really desperate for the last piece on my amy

cuz for me good build > sequence in term of satisfaction

[midnight tide]

I dont get how HSR hell even genshin does it for a fraction of the cost

And somehow kuro is doing worse than them

Idk

[wet crane]

it's hared to get a good echo set than buying sequences

so yea

[burnt oyster]

well i played hsr hardcore for a long time, gearing in wuwa is much better for casual

but it's x10 the pain for anyone min max

[wet crane]

worse?

[burnt oyster]

i think the early rolls for character are very rigged

i got so many easy double crit on my amy

[midnight tide]

Yes it is worse

[burnt oyster]

during the first 300 tuners

[wet crane]

Wuwa is one of the most profitable gachas atm according to the reports and tencent

[burnt oyster]

but after that

[glad mauve]

I wise man once said @echo ridge

[burnt oyster]

3000+ tuner

[midnight tide]

Talking about the tuning substat thing

[wet crane]

oh rofl

[midnight tide]

Not wuwa overall

[wet crane]

[burnt oyster]

we all know

also wuwa is just superior in technical to most of the gacha so not even a comparison

but i think endfield has really good clarity

vs wuwa with DLAA

i need 4k to make wuwa looks good

not sure why

[wet crane]

endfield is nice, I just don't like the combat and the factory stuff lol

[burnt oyster]

but endfield look incredibly sharp with 1440p DLAA

[glad mauve]

540p GTAO and SSR though

and DoF

[burnt oyster]

oh

[glad mauve]

with wobble wobble

[burnt oyster]

that

we dont talk about that

[glad mauve]

Anyways, we added kino GTAO now with vis bitmask

and AO modulation

looks bretty good

[burnt oyster]

i stopped playing Endfield cuz of the factorio stuff

and time constraint sadly

[glad mauve]

Story mid atm

[burnt oyster]

looks time consuming

[glad mauve]

Midfield

[midnight tide]

until silver palace comes out yes

but once it's out then no

I've played the beta and the game destroy wuwa everyday

technical aspect I mean

[burnt oyster]

the numbers looking funny tho

i heard the performance quite bad

seen my friend streamed the beta

[midnight tide]

It is bad yeah but so was wuwa back to CBT2

UE games need time for optimisation

[burnt oyster]

true

[midnight tide]

I disliked the combo tho

they need to work on that a bit more

[wet crane]

the characters feel less grounded in silver place for some reason

i don't love the art direction

[wet crane]

it depends on the UE version, there is a 100% chance that it cannot be optimised if it uses ray tracing

Silver Palace is not running on UE 5.3 either

[burnt oyster]

me on the way to find a hdr flashbang png

[midnight tide]

there's UE5 titles goodly optimized even with RT

there're rare but they do exists

wuwa is still shittly optimized in some areas

[burnt oyster]

the finals come to mind

but i dont play shooters sadly

not anymore at least

[midnight tide]

the art direction is always personal, I was saying in a technical aspect, SP is superior

[latent violet]

The finals is a custom branch of UE5 i think?

[wet crane]

wuwa is custom UE 4 it's a miracle that it runs this well tbh

[midnight tide]

I agree but still

UE games in general have very bad optimisation

[wet crane]

which open world UE game prior to 5.3 that uses RT has good optimisation?

[midnight tide]

ARC too

prior to 5.3 ? I will have to search my memories

[midnight tide]

SHF ?

wait CO33 is actually UE5 too

[wet crane]

Silent Hill f is not really open world

or CO33

[midnight tide]

I mean the only OW which comes to mind is Wukong and it runs like shit

[wet crane]

both games are 5.1+ so at least the CPU side is fixed

more or less

[midnight tide]

but it's a weak exemple to prove a point, the studio is new to optimisation with this engine

[wet crane]

btu wait

[midnight tide]

how is dune awakening running ?

[wet crane]

there is no hw ray tracing in Silent Hill f

[midnight tide]

it's lumen

afaik

but SP is also using lumen

[wet crane]

dune uses 5.3 afaik

or maybe 5.2?

but it runs like shit

[midnight tide]

palword has hw rt ?

[wet crane]

no idea

[midnight tide]

until down remake

uses 5.2

run decently but I need to check RT

it has RT yeah

but not really OW

oh btw SP is using version 5.4

[glad mauve]

UE5 not beating the allegations

[wet crane]

5.4? and it still runs badly? not a good sign tbh

[midnight tide]

it's CBT1 bro cut them some slacks

specifically in my case, the framerate was decent, but the stutters...

[wet crane]

Wuwa got worse over time

5090 is the new 3060 ti when it comes to requirements

[midnight tide]

I agree, we can thanks nvidia for that since every developper optimise their game now with dlss and FG in mind

[burnt oyster]

guess i'll just ignore max scoring the new mode

already merged all of my old echo cuz they take too much space

some doesn't have moonlit yet cuz the acc only built 2 set with swappable 3Cs

[lean moon]

don't you worry the rtx 6090 will fix it with price tag of just 10k msrp

[midnight tide]

Coming in 2028 at the earliest !

[lean moon]

don't forget with mfg 20x

[echo ridge]

https://youtu.be/BnMpsBM8H7k

[frozen token]

I think this games default black floor or gamma kind of high

[rigid yoke]

also think of that, but in black scenes it's perfect black

so i just gamma 1.2 with lilium black floor fix sacrificing black crush in perfect black scenes

or i think it's the devs intention since almost all has ips screen excluding android phone that has AMOLED idk

[frozen token]

Thats what I remember most going from RTX hdr to Reno is the black in RTX hdr were way more to my preference. fixed now

[echo ridge]

the shadow slider exists

🙂

buddy you set the shadows to 75

and then complain about the black floor

💔

[frozen token]

[rigid yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/aww-aww-cute-love-so-cute-cat-gif-292935567208914472

[frozen token]

Honestly the slider does way less at Exposure 3 I have to set it to be negative for any real impact and that resets anytime I reboot the game because its outside of preset paramotors.

That said I wll now have it at 0

[echo ridge]

switch to advanced

change shadows to V1

[frozen token]

ok

[echo ridge]

also

i dont know why you're trying to force low blacks

on a scene that's clearly well lit

[frozen token]

@echo ridge Just out of curitosty are you on OLED or other

[echo ridge]

4k 240hz oled

[tepid pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/money-money-money-gif-3641396535535975514

sounds expensive

[frozen token]

1000 nit mode or a True black mode?

[echo ridge]

1000

[frozen token]

ooooooh

We will never see the same thing then

[echo ridge]

TB400 won't change the fact that you're intentionally crushing blacks

[frozen token]

Yah just a lil

[wet crane]

Super high contrast and deep shadows at noon in direct sunlight

[echo ridge]

he's one bt709 -> p3 toggle away before a plasma certification

[wet crane]

I went outside 5 minutes ago, yea I know it sounds crazy, but I saw no 0% blacks not even under my car, what can I do to fix it?

[echo ridge]

wear sunglasses like your pfp

[wet crane]

ah true

[echo ridge]

0% black when your exposure is -5.00

[glad mauve]

has to also clamp to 203nits

SDRlets told me you dont need more

[echo ridge]

i blinded myself now all i see is 0%

perfect blacks achieved

[frozen token]

Opinion on this setting

[wet crane]

the only real solution

[glad mauve]

acktually thats fake news, blindness doesnt cause pitch blackness

[wet crane]

off is bugged so on

[echo ridge]

on some scenes the environment will be too dark

otherwise it can be better for your usecase

since you want those blaxxx

[wet crane]

what if you remove your eyes?

[echo ridge]

here

[frozen token]

what

[wet crane]

true blackness

[burnt oyster]

exactly what you see

[echo ridge]

some scenes are designed to ramp up exposure using AE

and has no fallback

if you dont encounter those scenes your life is fine

[frozen token]

Your contrast is perfect if everything is black

[echo ridge]

i prefer AE off but not enough to bother with the bugged scenes so i just have it on

🤷‍♂️

[wet crane]

Yea I would also prefer AE off

but the game was clearly designed with AE on in mind

they added the toggle because people wanted to turn it off

so they were like “fine you can turn it off now “

[echo ridge]

devs listened

https://tenor.com/view/devs-listened-wuwa-genshin-could-never-gif-6459591100973185639

[frozen token]

You also ever notice how the game get darker for a sec at night then it gets brighter

[echo ridge]

absolutely no QA though

but hey they did hold HDR back because it wasn't up to their standards

can't wait

[wet crane]

https://tenor.com/view/do-not-touch-it-programmer-walking-cow-coding-gif-17252607

[frozen token]

I dislike how so many nice looking places are used once and then never again in this game

O this looks nice without any off the gambling stuff on it

Best part about the hud toggle is you get to see the game load in

[rigid yoke]

ye it's like hacking shit

[burnt oyster]

we have hud toggle in renodx menu?

havent looked

i usually just use simple/intermediate

[vital moss]

You can hide your uid

Good if you have oled

[burnt oyster]

thought uid is hidden by default

but aight

i always hated the eye icon

with the immersion mode

[tepid pendant]

no

there's also some shitty coordinates that are always on your screen

all the time

can't disable either by default

[burnt oyster]

oh that

yep

[rustic oriole]

What if u don have moni for sunglasses

Any other diy methods

[wet crane]

you can use a marker to "paint" your eyeballs

[rustic oriole]

temp marker xD

then I should be fine!

[queen sail]

For me, that was on by default, when I installed Reno. I like the idea, but it botheres me alot, that it cuts the button prompts in half, so I disabled it again.

[frozen token]

I thought about his and remembered that when the sky is clear and sunny irl shadows actually look actually darker because of perceived contrast. Im just going by vibe I think thats the look I like for this game.

[echo ridge]

shadows look darker

they dont look absolutely crushed

[frozen token]

Thats why im constantly fucking with it

[rigid yoke]

just don't get it pregnant and you'll be fine

[frozen token]

Contrast test the area

Was RTX HDR

You cant actually get back there

I hope they add a replay feature to the game

Yah I like how blacks looked when I was using RTX HDR Especially on Galbrenas jacket

and yes I know shit was borked here

[frozen token]

I found one of those auto exposure areas. AKA a cave

Ok will just set shadows to a really lows setting now

My real problem is with the games character hero lighting.

Auto exposure off

Auto exposure on

[frozen token]

Even tho this game has RTGI The character lighting hardly changes. It seems to depend on the world area light or whatever its called

NPCS and characters cant get darker than a certain amount but they can get brighter

[echo ridge]

because character is rendered and overlayed on top

of existing environment

its artistic direction

[frozen token]

Yae

[echo ridge]

nothing new

many anime games o this

[frozen token]

I wouldn't notice if my game wasn't in hdr thats for Shure

[glad mauve]

that anti soul gas increase as you enter the cave

goes from a bit of fog to MAASSIVE fog instantly

[frozen token]

https://tenor.com/view/maxwell-gif-9346150164116943936

Gah I hate that this games night is just day 2

Think im gonna stop fiddling with it now

[frozen token]

Would be funny if this is why hdr was delayed

[echo ridge]

its noticeable even in sdr

when you walk in a clearly dark area and your character still glows

since they're excluded from all lighting calculations

[frozen token]

I LOVE FOG I LOVE FOG I LOVE FOG

[frozen token]

I lied

[frozen token]

What I see when I try and look directly at then sun

[rigid yoke]

Absolute Blinding ✋🗿🤚

[echo ridge]

nice sdr screenshot

[ebon hearth]

is the preset you're using custom-made or just HDR look? would love to request it

[echo ridge]

hdr look

[frozen token]

I understand the sliders now

[sour sorrel]

Do you guys recommend any shaders for gtao or smth, so eg. grass in Huanglong won’t make me wanna puke

[frozen token]

Ah so Peak 1000 mode on my monitor is better for games that dont really care about real darkness and my True black 400 mode Is for perfect contrast from 0%ints(Blacks 50) to 100%nits(100 highlights) so games that care about realism

I have only had this thing for um 2 years

At least im better than the people that don't turn on the full color range of their monitor or set there refresh rate to max

[rigid yoke]

peak 1000 is if you want the good small highlights with dark low light scenes, though it will dim in bright scenes, can either distract you or not if your room is dark anyway

[mental ibex]

do we enable fakehdr.fx?

[frozen token]

Thew only time I ever noticed ABL stabilize turn on was death stranding when you looked up at

Pure white clouds

[rigid yoke]

yeah depends on the person if they don't mind it as they can treat it as "eye protection"

[frozen token]

Legit tho looking at a 42in screen somewhere with an avenge of 200 nits+ hurts

[rigid yoke]

heard of a term somewhere from YouTube, perceived brightness

42in output 200nits is brighter than 27inch 200 nits

[wet crane]

You bought a character bike skin

[sturdy cloak]

Just to be certain : The game still doesn't support native HDR right ? To know if I can upgrade dlls fg to tranformer or not.

[wet crane]

it doesn't, at the moment

maybe next patch

[sturdy cloak]

Thanks

[wet crane]

https://youtu.be/iiB82WaIqTY?si=f6r2HiZyWaVr6-H8 hmm interesting

[dusty tiger]

Surprising since Changli doesn't do combust mechanic

I am happy for QS players, but I don't have enough A.D.D.s to do all that. XD

[wet crane]

yea, it's just fun 😄

Almost all my crashes are related to Frame gen turning off and on again in menus

[dusty tiger]

I don't even use FG and I still crash 50% of the time.

[grave tiger]

your pc is unstable

or u have amd?

[dusty tiger]

It's literally only WuWa. XD

[grave tiger]

wuwa is very sensible to unstable settings

[dusty tiger]

Borderlands 4, First Descendant, Endfield, Warframe, CP2077, Stellar Blade all have no problems.

[grave tiger]

doesnt matter

some games dont care

only times wuwa crashed for me was unstable oc

[dusty tiger]

I mean. Even if I run my GPU at stock it still crashes. There's nothing I can do about it.

[grave tiger]

cpu?

ram?

every oc matters

[dusty tiger]

CPU is stock. ram is only 6000MHz. Nothing crazy.

[grave tiger]

so expo?

[dusty tiger]

Yeah.

[grave tiger]

you might have unstable vsoc voltage

[dusty tiger]

Meh, maybe.
I'm not playing setting hunter for 1 game that is super sensitive. Too much time.
No other UE game has this problem.

[grave tiger]

whatever floats your boat

in case you want to try, set 1.3vsoc and see if it still crashes

1.3 is the max you can set

[tepid pendant]

stable settings, no overclocking no underclocking, stable system, the game still loves to crash.

So its not a settings issue

matter of fact, its the fault of chinese devs.

[grave tiger]

yeah i doubt that

[dusty tiger]

I would expect something like CP2077 or First Descendant to show a stability issue with an unstable clock long before a UE4 game.

[grave tiger]

I told you, it doesnt matter

some games just are more prone to crashes caused by unstable settings

i could run cp2077 with more aggressive ram/cpu overclocks

and wuwa would crash

[dusty tiger]

Yeah, it really shouldn't be like that.
Not disagreeing that WuWa could be sensitive to something that other games aren't. But it really shouldn't be an issue.

[grave tiger]

dunno what to tell you, some games just do that

[dusty tiger]

Don't think I've ever played a game that has crashed this much.
Except maybe OG Crysis on my Pentium Core 2 Duo back in the day.

[echo ridge]

it is

literally trash

you can crash with FG

even without using dlssfix

[grave tiger]

no idea about fg, i dont use it

[echo ridge]

plus this game has been having

RT crash issue for long time now

wouldn't be surprised

[grave tiger]

nah it was before

in 2. something

they fixed it

or nvidia

[tepid pendant]

lol

[grave tiger]

nvidia driver were also trash before

[tepid pendant]

as if kuro can fix this game

that's bold

if anything they've been breaking the game.

I've had 0 issues with XeFG pre 3.1

after 3.1 XeFG is ghosting a shit ton

[dusty tiger]

Like a clock

[tepid pendant]

Yeah, fix those unstable settings as stated by that other guy

Clearly the system settings are at fault for this piece of shit of game crashing

[dapper flare]

i havent crashed with RT on once

and I dont use FG so

even with the aggressive undervolt this gpu has, on top of aggressive PBO settings

[dusty tiger]

Apparently this crash is just what the game does now. Cool.

[rustic oriole]

This happened to me once while riding the bike in 3.0 area without RT

xD

all other crashes were repeatable

[frozen token]

Actual reno question. Is there a reason blowout restoration/blowout is not touched in the presets

[echo ridge]

already set to the appropriate amount

[frozen token]

Is max nits always sopposed to be pure white?

[echo ridge]

whta do you mean pure white

[frozen token]

I mean the verry brightest thing on the screen I think

when you can see a max bright

Im probably talking about a non problem

[frozen token]

Ok finally figured everting out and deiced im going with HDR look with 1000 peak, game brightness at 500, Shadows at 45, Highlight saturation a lil up at 55 Bloom at 33 for now.

I like the full screen brightness of my True Black 400 mode vs the Peak 1000 mode of my oled.

and yes if ABL stabilize is kicking in im not noticing it

[echo ridge]

time to blow this guy's mind

now what if I tell you

you can use peak 1000

but with less ABL

[frozen token]

How tho its grayed out in the OSD when preak 1000 mode is selected

[echo ridge]

https://github.com/DespairArdor/QD-OLED-APL-FIXER

[frozen token]

Ok will try later

[rigid yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-death-stare-stare-look-car-gif-17449959

[vital moss]

I have that in my monitor but it sucks

Destroys details

[sour sorrel]

Thank you so much for this what the fuck

[grave tiger]

Do you use fg?

[grave tiger]

Yeah sorry for trying to help him

[tepid pendant]

All you did was assume that the game crashes under X conditions.

Which are system settings

Go figure

As if this game hasn't been crashing for people on different systems.

Everyone has unstable systems now I guess.

[grave tiger]

I said try to increase vsoc voltage to 1.3

in my experience wuwa was crashing because i had unstable overclock settings

no other game was crashing

as soon as I lower them wuwa stopped crashing

im running rt and no fg

fg could also be the culprit

[dark scroll]

wouldn't vsoc past 1.2-1.25v be pretty hairy for like any CPU?

[grave tiger]

no, 1.3 is max

you cant even set more than 1.3 anymore

[tepid pendant]

Wouldn't risk it with x3d stuff though

[grave tiger]

its the same for all 7000-9000 series

x3d doesnt matter

[tepid pendant]

It wouldn't if x3d cpus wouldn't be suicidal.

[grave tiger]

100 posts on reddit on asrock boards dont really make statistics

[dark scroll]

huh. For me stabilizing CPU+RAM OC raising CPU_1V8 (or whatever it's called) to 1.84-1.88 helped more than 1.2 vsoc over 1.15.
But that's for 5600X + B-die DDR4, so no idea how muc hthat helps.

[tepid pendant]

Oh this guy is the "If I don't believe it, its fake".

[grave tiger]

5000 is different

[tepid pendant]

x3d chips can't die lads.

[dark scroll]

fair)

[grave tiger]

yeah too bad puget systems said failure rate is below 1.5%

[dark scroll]

x3d can't die, if they catch fire, they just get reborn in flames like a phoenix?

[tepid pendant]

Failure rate is still a failure rate and people would rather minimise that failure rate instead of taking on your advice.

These chips are dying across all boards, not just asrock.

[grave tiger]

1.5% on millions of sold cpu is normal rates

[tepid pendant]

Is it?

[grave tiger]

it is

[tepid pendant]

Is it though?

[grave tiger]

Yeah

can you stop ragebaiting

[tepid pendant]

Elaborate how thousands of CPU's dying is normal

Within 6 months of usage

[grave tiger]

thousands loool

schizo

im done with you pal

[tepid pendant]

Calling me schizophrenic because you're stupid enough to believe your own delusions.

[grave tiger]

enjoy your day

[tepid pendant]

[dusty tiger]

Nope

[grave tiger]

dunno then

maybe try a game repair

you are on nvidia right?

[vital moss]

I use opti fg haven't had any issues

[dusty tiger]

I just did a fresh game install.

And I always DDU when I update drivers.

[grave tiger]

okay, ddu everytime isnt needed

[rigid yoke]

how? last i used it was prior 2.7 and it causes flicker with RenoDX, i assume it's with DLSS-fix?

both xeFG and FSR FG

currently using Lossless for FG

[vital moss]

No

I use Nukem

Anything else crashes anyways

No issues with nukem

[echo ridge]

fsr3fg interpolation is really trash on particles

i'd rather use lsfg for this game

[rigid yoke]

nvm i thought you got a hack setting ot something
i use rtx 2060 super so FG doesn't even show there even with settings tweaks

[tepid pendant]

Optiscaler

[rigid yoke]

FG option doesn't really show in rtx 2000 cards so it's no use 🙁 nukem dont work

[tepid pendant]

it does with optiscaler

[dusty tiger]

You have to edit the opti.ini in order to make the spoof work. By default it is just set to spoof AMD cards to look like Nvidia cards.

[hidden nebula]

The hashes of the dx11 and dx12 are the same? I used the toolkit and i found the ui hashes for the xxmi.

could i link those to renodx sliders?

[faint monolith]

They are not the same

[dusty tiger]

Anyone capture WuWa /w RenoDX running via OBS?
It's just washed out when I try to capture it.

[dusty tiger]

I used this filter and settings to make it look decent.
Not sure if this is the right way to go about it or not though.

[wet crane]

The new event area looks really nice

good RT and lighting quality

[midnight tide]

I agree

sadly the event itself is not my cup of tea

[wet crane]

I like it, we can find out what the other characters are doing

It’s not permanent. I hope that we get a customizable sonoro “home” sphere in the future

I think that this is basically a test event.

They want to sell furnitures and stuff imo

[frozen token]

Yall remember the genshin home "gpu farm"

Where you would just fill rooms with things that gave you the most points to space ratio

[midnight tide]

that"s precisly what I dont like about it

basically the same thing as genshin

[wet crane]

Idk how they implemented it in Genshin and yea it’s pretty limited, but still, I want a customizable home 😅

[rustic oriole]

Would be nice if its truly customizable

With no chains attached

[midnight tide]

unlikely because of mobile's limitation

Genshin faced the same issue

well i'm too lazy to learn optimal rots

wanna buy a new cpu but i'm waiting for zen 6

feels like it'll help me from a 7950x more than 4080 Super -> 5080

feels like there are microstutter during recording

[midnight tide]

depends on the resolution

[burnt oyster]

4K DLSS 4.5 Preset M (Performance)

or DLSS 4 Quality (K)

whichever give higher fps

[midnight tide]

first option

usually

but yeah 4k your processor doesnt give you much more performance

be sure to check reviews before buying

[burnt oyster]

that's usually the case with native res tho

nowadays we're running dlss to get playable fps so i'm not too sure if it still hold

[midnight tide]

it does to a lesser extent

but if you're always using dlss P yeah I would check reviews to see if it's worth it

I have a 7800x3d and the difference at 4k with a 9800x3d is negligeable with dlss Q

[burnt oyster]

ye but thats like x3d vs x3d

mine is not even x3d

heard the gap is insane for games

lower res than my internal tho

[midnight tide]

yeah t'as at 1440p with one game

and even then the difference seems really high to me

@burnt oyster

8% faster at 1440p basically

2% at 4k

[sour sorrel]

You’re talking about native res right

[midnight tide]

yes native res still

at 4k

techpower up doesnt test with dlss

[burnt oyster]

DLSS Perf on M is still 1080p tho

iirc

i doubt it's this low

[midnight tide]

huh bottleneck doesnt work like that

it's the final burden on the gpu which induce the charge on the cpu

even if you're rendering in 1080p, the dlss algorithm to reach 4k is not costless

in other words, your performance at 4k dlss P preset M is not your performance at native 1080p

[burnt oyster]

yes i'm aware of that

[midnight tide]

I would be curious to see a comparaison with dlss P tho

[wet crane]

one core CPU limit is an issues in wuwa. This frankenstein UE4 is not great

the difference between 7800x3d and 9800x3d is not negligible

[midnight tide]

non x3d chips usually boosts higher in monocore task

I think it is negligible in most cases

RT might be the only way where the difference is noticable

[wet crane]

I mean in wuwa

[midnight tide]

oh I thought you meant UE4 games in general

idk about wuwa

[west plank]

HDR appears to be clamped for me when ingame, but when I open the Reshade overlay it's unclamped. Anyone else have this issue? I tried switching between fullscreen and borderless, and the issue persists. It seems to happen on dx11 and dx12 for me

[grave tiger]

something on your end

do you have other mods installed

[rigid yoke]

maybe autohdr/rtx HDR?

[alpine orchid]

heh, I had one of these. My 9800x3d died after about 6 months. Stock clocks, no pbo, vcore and vsoc were kept under 1.2v, power limit was set down to 105w, thermal limits at 75c and it still kicked the bucket

[tepid pendant]

Dw according to @grave tiger that's by design and normal.

Also within 6 months.

https://tenor.com/view/matthew-mc-conaughey-dallas-buyers-club-coincidence-focus15-gif-8603942

Most of them die at 6th month mark.

[alpine orchid]

at least AMD didn't ask too many questions, they were pretty efficient about the RMA

[grave tiger]

unlucky, mine still works after a year

overclocked too

[wet crane]

rover is not mentioned

hmm

[wet crane]

mine is undervolted with PBO in an Asrock board (B650, up to date bios) and no issues so far (~14 months)

thermal limit at 95C

[grave tiger]

isnt 95 the default limit

[wet crane]

it is 😄

no real reason to keep it under 95C btw

the chip is designed to run at 95C

mine never reaches 95 tho

it reaches 88-90 during all core shader pre-compilation

until the fans spin up

[grave tiger]

? im not using below 95

i agree its useless

[wet crane]

Austin limited it to 75C

[grave tiger]

oh didnt see that

[wet crane]

it's VDDIO that was killing 9800x3Ds btw

not really the vcore or vsoc

aka memory oc

badly implemented expo profile

i mean 1.3+ vsoc can also kill it

[grave tiger]

really? I tought it was never acknowledged

afaik there isnt really a reason other than normal failure rates

[wet crane]

reports said that it was the memory oc+pbo that killed the CPUs in asrock boards

but who knows

[wet crane]

yea there were like what? 200-300 reports?

[grave tiger]

my friend has oc with asrock and still works

[alpine orchid]

Yeah, I just was hoping maybe I could protect it from dying but nope LOL

[grave tiger]

lower

https://www.reddit.com/r/ASRock/comments/1q3ff0t/9000series_cpu_failures_deaths_megathread_4/

[wet crane]

my memory is also overclocked

[grave tiger]

you're right its in the 250 range

[wet crane]

but the voltages are fixed

[grave tiger]

still very low

[wet crane]

yeah

[alpine orchid]

it was crazy seeing the daily reports of it

used to be cpu failures were really really rare

[wet crane]

maybe, or maybe people were not reporting the "deaths" on reddit 😄

a lot of early Ryzen CPUs died

3 in our office alone

lol

[alpine orchid]

I didn't post mine

just kinda rma'ed it and panicked in my friends' discord

[wet crane]

but if it dies asrock replaces the mobo with the CPU so its fine

[alpine orchid]

I bought an asus board to replace mine. I'll have to reach out to asrock and see if they can refund/replace my board. I didn't want to take my chances on it lol

[wet crane]

understandable

I don't really think that asus is better tbh

[alpine orchid]

at the time they didn't have many reports. I've seen a handful recently so I'm hopefully this one will survive

[tepid pendant]

Be aware that these CPUs are not immune to other boards either.

[wet crane]

I think it's the CPU that is very sensitive to certain voltage changes

[tepid pendant]

A few of them died on various boards other than asrock.

[grave tiger]

its not but it seems that asrock is not really following amd specs on some bioses

[wet crane]

they weren't for sure lol

[grave tiger]

hence 99% of the reports being on asrock boards

[wet crane]

the new bios versions seem to be fine tho

[grave tiger]

yeah seems like it

[wet crane]

I'm keeping my B650 asrock ITX board for as long as I can, It's really nice MB

[alpine orchid]

what vddio is considered dangerous? isn't this usually set = vdimm?

[wet crane]

1.4+

yes but auto VDDIO was kinda "bugged"

[alpine orchid]

great, mine was using 1.4 at xmp

[grave tiger]

1.4 is fine

[wet crane]

1.4 should be fine

[grave tiger]

its expo

[alpine orchid]

well, 1 chip already died so maybe it was something else

[grave tiger]

you shouldnt need more than 1.4 anyway

prob asrock old bios

[alpine orchid]

I liked the design on my taichi but it had all kinds of random issues

honestly the whole board was a nightmare

[wet crane]

the soc voltage also went above 1.3 too in a lot of cases soo yea

[wet crane]

I had memory training issues on the older bioses too

[alpine orchid]

even running stock/jedec, pcie devices would randomly disappear, it failed to boot like 80% of the time and had to be rebooted several times, it took like 10-30 minutes to boot sometimes, it was haunted

[wet crane]

ugh

[grave tiger]

that does sound also like a cpu issue

[wet crane]

mine just retrained memory now and then lol

[grave tiger]

you have mcr on auto?

[alpine orchid]

I'd spend half an hour trying to boot and then I'd finally get it to boot and the gpu would disappear

[alpine orchid]

yeah I wasn't sure how much was the board and how much was the cpu just dying

[wet crane]

not anymore, this was before I manually OCd my memory

[alpine orchid]

once it booted, if everything loaded up right, it would be fine for several days

then I'd turn it off at night and try to boot the next day and it was like playing russian roulette

[grave tiger]

yeah id say cpu was prob bad

[wet crane]

yea

[alpine orchid]

apparently my batch was one of the higher failure rate ones according to the surveys

Hopefully the new chip can at least survive until nova lake comes out

[hidden nebula]

do you know how to link the dx12 hashes to dx11?

[wet crane]

My current rating, it's not terrible

[dapper flare]

does anyone have the sanity to play tower and how the hell do you do it

meanwhile illusive realm with this meme team gets 6000/6000

coulda beat the scar boss at the end but started rushing it at 30% hp on phase 2 and it insta killed buling lmao

[queen sail]

ToA I only have the units to clear the side towers. The middle is just not doable for me. I missed a lot of characters, when I took a break from the game for a year or so.
WiWa is even worse. But I still get a lot of astrite out of all the endgame modes.

[dapper flare]

last time I played whiwa the multi target emphasis made me want to uninstall the game

[frozen saffron]

last 2 floor is just a joke, not worth doing if you don't have the shilled units or tryhard

[vital moss]

Guess I'll also give it a try but I'm not expecting much

[burnt oyster]

not sure if i need it for a tv but i'll try it as well

[wet crane]

It’s a damage/build check, it’s not that hard if you have good teams

[tepid pendant]

good teams with good builds*

or rather decent teams

[wet crane]

yeah

[sour sorrel]

I’ve set the transition speed to to max, cause it looked bad when all flashy and bright colours appeared when casting ultimates

[sour sorrel]

Btw do you know what to do to make it work in Enfield chief

[grave tiger]

should be the same for all games?

just place it in shaders folder

[dapper flare]

i have fully built carlotta team so unless by "good builds" it means "perfect 5pc echoes" it's dumb

[wet crane]

you dont need perfect echoes just 3 good teams

fully built

you can do the first 2-3 side floors with 1-2 decent characters

[dapper flare]

getting 3 stars on final floor is aids though

that's my main issue with it

[wet crane]

I have no issues but I’m a day one player

[midnight tide]

Disclaimer : cartwheel without ciaconna is not a good team

I struggled hard for that last floor just to get 3 stars and I have very good echoes

[wet crane]

Use a better team to clear the last floor

the new whiwa was easy at least

well with Phrolova

[sour sorrel]

I did, while it works for WuWa, I’d does not for endfield. It’s showing in game, but it doesn’t work. Changing its settings doesn’t do anything as well

[tepid pendant]

meh, Carte, ARover and Chisa works fine

[grave tiger]

hmmSpin

[midnight tide]

It's a meh team, not a good team

you have to be very careful with erosion stacks because they're not being constantly applied without ciaconna

or without cartwheel S2

I find myself regulary swapping back to her without completing my rotation, because I dont have enough stacks (up to 9 with chisa)

[latent violet]

My reading comprehension fails me whenever I open up the wuwa skill descriptions so I base my team comps on what prydwen suggests for various characters

[vital moss]

anyone happen to have reshade fxh

Nvm

Not sure what to think of that EOTF shader

Any of you guys that actually use it

[grave tiger]

spiwar

[echo ridge]

dont overdo it

"conservative" settings

after this you'll also need lilium tone mapping after EOTF boost

here's how both should be set up

this is to raise brightness in scenes that are supposed to be overall bright while keeping highlight power in dark scenes

[grave tiger]

do you think its worth it? Abl doesnt really bother me

[echo ridge]

Then dont use it

I like it

But its very minor extra perf cost

So i dont use

Cause i need every frame i can get in this dogass game

If i have extra frames its a nice to have

[grave tiger]

it removes frames?

hell nah

[dusty tiger]

Everything has a cost.
Unless you have headroom when playing the game, then you're going to lose frames.

[frozen token]

It only takes like 1 fps from me at most

[frozen token]

[vital moss]

I don't really like how it looks so I'm not using it either

[echo ridge]

use the preset i suggested

and also

this is only for oled

miniled im not sure you should use

[grave tiger]

do you use that setup on every game?

[frozen token]

I also assume we should set game brightness to 203 then use the Bost strength to brighten the game?

Probably better to adjust it in reno first

Boost strength, compression start, and Saturation comp seem on point. APL trigger depends on the monitor/brightness setting in reno?

[echo ridge]

No

Game brightness is whatever you're comfortable with when you're not hitting ABL

[echo ridge]

No

The point of the boost is to match the average brightness that you lose when ABL triggers

You set 120 brightness for example and thats how you like it in a spot where abl doesnt hit

Then you go to a bright spot

Abl triggers

Your effective game brightness is lower

The reshade fx boost your brightness back up

[echo ridge]

Should work for every game save for some where the eotf boost gets confused and doesnt trigger even though the APL is high

Zenless for example

Wuwa works as expected

[frozen token]

[frozen token]

Works good

Eyes hurt a bit tho

[echo ridge]

i won't even ask what kind of settings you're using

UI brightness set to peak brightness

[frozen token]

I will say frame gen artifacts are way more noticeable at this brightness

[vital moss]

That part is pretty obvious yes

[midnight tide]

bro is killing me with his screenshot i cant

as long as you enjoy it bro more power to you

[wet crane]

No

[tepid pendant]

I'm wondering why the colours for the most part look so bland

And then there's some really bright shit around then

Like the 4th screenshot

Everything looks so bland

And then that random plant is overly bright

[midnight tide]

because they're being destroyed with white lmao. Bro has exposure set at 3

[frozen token]

Nah its not anymore

[midnight tide]

oh ?

mb then

[tepid pendant]

It still looks weird even if the exposure is not set at 3

[frozen token]

If you look at it in Special K Image Viewer it might look better to you

[tepid pendant]

I'm viewing it through my phone, surely it does good enough of a job at it.

[frozen token]

How good

[tepid pendant]

Surely Samsung display does good enough of a job at it.

[frozen token]

Im on a 4k 42inch

so

[tepid pendant]

Doesn't change how the colours work though

Does it

[frozen token]

Looks so fucked on my phone

[tepid pendant]

Okay at max brightness, it looks slightly better, but still looks really bland and then just overly bright objects.

[frozen token]

I'm doing the thing

[tepid pendant]

yeah idk

looks weird

it reminds me of the time I played without Reno and the game just has this weird cum stain filter that's transparent.

grey-ish

[midnight tide]

the "reno" badge disapeared ?

[wet crane]

the boost lvl went down

it dropped from 17 -> 16

[midnight tide]

I sadly wasted my two boosts on other servers a long time ago

[wet crane]

me too

[midnight tide]

Ohh its back ?

Thank you whoever boosted the serv

[vital moss]

Any place in the world map where I can test this APL shader? I've copied your settings @echo ridge but I don't see any change in the overall image.

In Startorch Academy, it results in a subtle brightness increase. Detail still seems to be fine 🤔

[rigid yoke]

what y'all language you choose in WuWa?

English sounds disconnected but good quality so far
Japanese sounds muffled
the other two haven't tried yet, if only there was replay button for stories 😕

[glad mauve]

No language

play in silence

I imagine the voices in my head

[odd plaza]

There's an option to replay dialogue somewhere, I happened upon it recently

[rigid yoke]

hope you can find it cuz i wanna try out the languages

Gallery > Main Story

[rigid yoke]

perfect for my testing thanks!

[echo ridge]

its because he's blowing it up with eotf boost

and completely misusing it

but whatever

[frozen token]

Yes

[echo ridge]

he's not even playing in hdr

it's basically SDR with extra steps

[frozen token]

I like the Mandarin dub

[tepid pendant]

Sounds like a waste of oled.

[dusty tiger]

After 1.3 I have no complaints about Eng dub.
But I also don't like reading subs. So the VA has to be pretty bad to make me switch off dub.

[tepid pendant]

You listen to full dialogues?

[dusty tiger]

Yeah. Autoplay

[echo ridge]

More power to him

[tepid pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/abbott-elementary-praying-prayers-pray-give-me-strength-gif-25350525

[echo ridge]

But at that point i would just play in sdr and boost the brightness up

[tepid pendant]

Listening to full dialogues sounds horrendous

[echo ridge]

Its not high dynamic range anymore

Cause theres no dynamic range

Its just high

[dusty tiger]

What's the point of acting if you don't listen to it?

[tepid pendant]

I prefer the JP dub, and then read the dialogue ASAP and get over with it.

I'll take JP over Eng for animated cutscenes all day long.

I have PTSD from that one time in 1.0 with Scar.

[frozen token]

It's also not as bad as everyone thinks it is but there's no way for them to see.

[echo ridge]

it is as bad

i opened that thing on my 1500 nits oled tablet

and yeah

it is as bad as i imagined

[rigid yoke]

oh? was Scar's performance bad? personally found him better than all voices in EN department

[echo ridge]

your average luminance is so high at this point you're better off playing in SDR

like legit

[tepid pendant]

Pretty sure my phone display does over 2000 nits

It is decently bad looking.

Literal PTSD

[echo ridge]

even a well mastered hdr show doesn't reach that retarded level of average luminance

[frozen token]

No way to show you the image after my monitors ABL fuckery just assume it looks less bright then the pictures.

[echo ridge]

I also have a qd with abl

It looks bad regardless

But

Its okay

Do whatever you want

[frozen token]

I will

[tepid pendant]

more power to him as you said

SDR with extra steps on OLED

[dusty tiger]

Yeah, that one's no longer in the game.

[tepid pendant]

[echo ridge]

Yea

[tepid pendant]

Yeah, I know, I just have PTSD ever since this did happen.

[frozen token]

To be fair tho was looking at the sun

Just use ingame filters at that point
