sooooo....anyone know if theres a good analog setup for tarkov?

Hey guys. I got my wooting yesterday for birthday and just wanted to ask if someone managed to rebind the Accelerate and Brake axis' in PUBG for the controller. Or do I need to switch between two different analogue profiles (one with Left Sick on WASD and the second with the triggers on WS and Left Stick on AD)

#

Please don't slap if I posted in wrong channel. Sorry if so 🙂

#

Dang. I also tried editing the controls INI to rebind the axis', but that had no effect ingame 😛 Thanks

Are Dying Light 2 delayed?

Have they even announced the release date for DL2?

No. It was originallySpring 2020 I think. But now it has no date.

I think it is either A. game companies are afraid of releasing unfinished shit like they have been for the past couple years, or B. they are following other game dev companies to try and make their product seem more finished and more enticing, or I guess perhaps C. they realized they set unrealistic goals and the actual development team told them they needed X to get it done and that release date Y would not give them X

young crow
#

C is actually super common

#

not just in game development

#

now it’s usually people who have zero idea how long it takes to create something who set goals

#

in my experience, bug finding and fixing is almost never accounted for

#

but this exact process is long as fuck

#

everyone doesn’t have the same pc configuration... and that’s what makes it pure hell

hushed iris
#

it's none of these

#

games back in the day were incredibly less complex

#

these days, everything connects to the internet or has a multitude of dynamic systems because gamers demand nothing less

bronze niche
#

so explain why we did not see as many delays literally 2 years ago

hushed iris
#

we did, you just don't remember

bronze niche
#

all I remember is major releases like dishonored 2 coming out on pc unfinished

hushed iris
#

ubisoft has been in the business of releasing super buggy games for a while

fringe salmon
#

and they basically announced a delay on all of their games to change that

hushed iris
#

yep because it's affecting their bottom line

fringe salmon
#

more money in the games industry -> more people coming in, including those who just care about the money so you get more managment that mishandles stuff and it took a while for consumers to say no to bad releases is also part of why we now see more delays than 2 years ago

#

it's a mixture of things, including higher complexity ofc

hushed iris
#

the other thing is, a lot of games in the past have had built-in buffer zones to account for delays so that perception remains unchanged

bronze niche
#

so like you said C

#

smh

#

its C then

hushed iris
#

it has nothing to do with the language used

bronze niche
#

wat

fringe salmon
#

no he mean point c of what he said

bronze niche
#

yeah

#
they realized they set unrealistic goals and the actual development team told them they needed X to get it done and that release date Y would not give them X```
hushed iris
#

sorry i misread

fringe salmon
#

I say it's a b and c all in different parts depending on the case

hushed iris
#

i was just scanning

#

lmao

fringe salmon
#

dw I also was confused at first

hushed iris
#

"C is actually super common
not just in game development"

bronze niche
#

well yeah

#

hence why i added it

#

cause like

#

its everywhere

#

I mean fuck

#

I deal with it here in my job

#

and this is just IT

hushed iris
#

everyone wants to look good or placate people so they can be left alone

#

that's how unrealistic deadlines come about

bronze niche
#

why does a construction company say they can do it in 1 year

#

and end up taking 3?

hushed iris
#

to win the bid

#

it's more costly for the client to switch construction companies after they blow the deadline

fringe salmon
#

because getting the bid and then taking a fine is worth more than not getting the bid

hushed iris
#

^

#

it's calculated

bronze niche
#

sorry that was totally a rhetorical question

#

I know the answer

#

I work in construction as IT

fringe salmon
#

ouch

hushed iris
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

fringe salmon
#

don't wanna switch lmao

bronze niche
#

switch?

fringe salmon
#

don't want your job is what I mean xD

bronze niche
#

oh

#

I dont want my job man

#

in some ways it is better than my previous job

#

but in others it is much worse

#

I mean im by far not the smartest person

#

but the people I work with are construction people

#

so

#

they would almost as gladly throw a laptop across a room as use it correctly

#

and I manage the phones

#

which they break constantly

Can anyone recommend a game that uses 12+ GiB video memory?

small comet
#

crysis 1 max settings 240fps

#

do it

keen urchin
#

doubt

small comet
#

well the game wont need 12gb of vram

#

but ur gpu will still shit its pants

fading spade
#

minecraft + 4k resource pack running at 8k with ray tracing shaders

small comet
#

good rt

#

amd card

#

ya no

#

theres a conflict in ur statements

keen urchin
#

🤔
To be fair, minecraft was the only game I could think of yet

fading spade
#

dont the new seus use ray tracing but they dont need nvidia cards?

small comet
#

minecraft doesnt eat vram tho

fading spade
#

or do they ? idk

small comet
#

my rtx 2080ti had like 7gb used max with raytracing and all that shit

keen urchin
#

Yeah, the SEUS shader works on AMD card since I think E8 or E9

fading spade
#

ahhh

small comet
#

k thats after i stopped paying

keen urchin
#

It never used RTX

small comet
#

i never said it did

#

just that i know the builds that did exist ran so shit on an amd card

keen urchin
#

Urgh, all shaders run like shit :p

small comet
#

idk i got like nice 80fps with rt, 4k and all

#

id call that running p good

fading spade
#

I can only get above 60FPS using lite shaders with most options off ;-;

keen urchin
#

I got like what, 70 or so with Sildur's Enhanced Default or whatever?

fading spade
#

same

keen urchin
#

But even with just Optifine installed minecraft doesn't exactly run like a charm

fading spade
#

wat?

small comet
#

ya like what

#

it totally does

fading spade
#

for me it makes the game feel smoother when moving the mouse

small comet
#

the game just runs smoother in general with the right optifine settings

keen urchin
#

Yeah, sure

small comet
#

the only time i wasnt able to play fluently was back when i had an amd cpu

#

the piece of crap called fx

#

idk

#

4100

#

or smth

#

garbo

keen urchin
#

But even then, it could be more fluid

#

But if I start measuring things against Witcher 3, then there isn't much that's "good"

small comet
#

im about to install a clean mc and optifine just to show u that it runs smooth

fading spade
#

:PPPP

keen urchin
#

It does. As long as you look in one direction and don't move.

fading spade
#

I just copied over my entire .minecraft folder from my USB backup and hnnng all my settings are there no need to change anything or install optifine

small comet
#

no with moving and normal gameplay

#

easy to reach 200+ fps

#

sure one can like

#

go near 1000

#

1200 fps

#

with standing still

#

staring into the sky

#

and all that dumb shit

keen urchin
#

Maybe my 5820K was a piece of shit. Every chunk loading caused a microstutter

small comet
#

chunkload is hdd/ssd and ram

keen urchin
#

Frametime went up to like 50ms

#

For that frame

#

Sometimes 70

#

I'd need to test with the new system

small comet
#

normally ud not get any stutter even if the chunk doesnt load

#

its a wonder normal mc runs at like 60fps

#

fuck no forge for 1.15.x

fading spade
#

i never use forge

small comet
#

ok in 1.14.4 it seems i cap out at like 160-200fps with optifine and everything maxed

#

and the internal shader

fading spade
#

BTW IM SO HAPPY

#

The new Optifine works on OpenJDK 13 :DDD

#

before it crashed whenever you entered a GUI

#

WOOOOO, no need to keep java 8 anymore

keen urchin
#

Should I get Skyrim Special Edition 🤔

keen urchin
#

I don't know if I'll like it

#

Worst case: 9.39€ down the drain...

fringe salmon
#

if you dont just mod it to have tomas the tank engine instead of dragons flying around

keen urchin
#

God, there's something wrong with that game

#

10 minutes and I'm starting to feel nauseaus

#

I dunno

fringe salmon
#

no tearing/frame spikes etc.?

small comet
keen urchin
#

@fringe salmon Probably everything

novel umbra
#

@keen urchin maybe weird fps?

#

Skyrim exclusively likes 60fps

#

It looks to behave 10 years older than it is

small comet
#

wha

#

all bethesda games run best on 60fps

#

cause physics are fps bound in all of them

#

even fallout4

fading spade
#

O.o

small comet

inner meteor
#

@keen urchin only game that really made me feel nauseous was The Talos Principle. I can’t play that mf although it's such a great game

chilly fox
#

same here with talos principle. had to stop playing it and never quite figured out why :(

novel umbra
#

the only thing that gets me is VR when whatever you are doing crashes and the image doesn't move when you do

orchid prism
#

You don't play Talos. You speedrun it and break the bounds constantly. 😄

keen urchin
#

It did run at 60FPS

#

But there was heavy tearing until I turned off 'vsync'

#

And there is a hell of a lot of stutter

#

And I think massive input delay

#

@novel umbra But I wanna mod anyway, just not sure if I should figure out the performance issues before or after modding

#

@inner meteor ESO didn't work out of the box either for me, though not as bad
And then there's a few UE3 games, like the entire Borderlands series, that perform poorly on default

novel umbra
#

there are some basic fixed I would recommend isntalling either way

#

so you can actually do all quests

keen urchin
#

9 years, and the game is still such a mess

#

How come modders picked that game to build a huge scene around it?

#

It's pretty much like Windows
A total mess, but with so much time put into its development starting from scratch isn't economically viable

#

Wouldn't be surprised if they have been having something in the works for a couple years now, that will then be ready for TES VII...

#

I thought, Special Edition, reworked rerelease of an old game, should be fine?

BETHESDA
good game

#

ya no

#

that has dies a long time ago

tough jay
#

I think it would fare a lot better if it's singleplayer and has a community to fix their shit

small comet
#

i mean

#

they patched in multiplayer netcode into their skyrim/fallout engine

#

200IQ move

#

on how to lose all ur playerbase

tough jay
#

rule one of any multiplayer game is: never trust the client

small comet
#

rule 2 of a multiplayer game dont use an engine designed for singleplayer ONLY

#

rule number 3 dont run ur servers on potatoes

#

thats the job of lol

tough jay
#

if you have to run an engine made for singleplayer games, don't use one that can be modded to the core

small comet
#

fallout 3

#

fallout 76

#

and the joke is

#

the creation engine is just a slightly modded gamebryo

tough jay
#

oblivion also

small comet
#

this is literally what is happening with cod

#

the same engine since pmuch ever

tough jay
#

Honestly you can build upon an engine

small comet
#

like i get that its not easy to develop a new engine

#

but come on

#

the thing is

#

they didnt even build much upon the gamebryo engine

#

in fact

#

id say the gamebryo is better than the creation engine

tough jay
#

still the engine is really good for modding, that's why they use it. The alternative would be using unreal like everyone else.

small comet
#

altho prob the worst offense bethesda did isnt even fo76

#

its the 500 editions/versions of skyrim

#

i own more copies of skyrim than cells in my body by now

#

like i said dont get me wrong ik that making an engine isnt easy

#

but lately they just poop out the worst shit build on the same bugged engine

tough jay
#

The main problem is that they never bother to fix issues, even if there is a working community patch already.

small comet
#

exactly

#

even minecraft has a better engine immo

#

altho it doesnt even really have an engine in that sense

tough jay
#

Performance of the java version is horrendous though especially the default server client.

small comet
#

yet it runs more stable than skyrim

#

so /shrug

#

and id say its as easy to use a third party server client as using the official one

#

Here is why Minecraft is better than any Bethesda game:

  • not as buggy
  • has multiplayer
  • is actually sandbox open world
  • gets constant updates
  • easily exchangeable textures
  • multiple modes of playing
keen urchin
#

So, if I turn off vsync in Skyrim I get massive tearing, despite Freesync, still horrible input lag, but at least I'm not instantly nauseaous

#

How can you have tearing with Freesync? Does the game produce torn frames? what

keen urchin
#

Oh, and the tear line is like 50 pixels thick?

small comet
#

@keen urchin u listened to the part where i said this engine is 12years old and has more bugs than there are atoms in the universe right?

#

not sure when the gamebryo engine was initially made

#

so i went with fallout3 release

#

oh ya

#

so 23years of bugs

#

thanks bethesda

#

i place all my trust in u for tes6

#

which will prob be even more of a bug fest

#

inb4 its an mmo like fallout 76

#

but they already have teso

trim rock
#

Starfield tho

small comet
#

whats starfield

fringe salmon
#

can't see any bugs in tes6 when you are still talking about bugs in starfield WeSmart

keen urchin
#

What a good guide for modding Skyrim?

small comet
#

nexus mods is ur friend

keen urchin
#

Apparently it's not that easy

novel umbra
#

starfield won't work lol

#

the devs complained a lot about it

#

they can't get it to work correctly in their old engine

#

never got updated enough

#

ehhh

#

would have to search it out again

#

was shortly after the announcement teaser

#

we obv don't know what they exactly plan for it

ripe tendon
#

Start here and if you don't really like it then you may just have to try a few on Google and see what speaks to you. Overall the info should all be pretty similar. Also I'd take mod/save cleaning info with a grain of salt. It may be useful for smaller mods but most med-large mods have taken care of that.
https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/wiki/begin2

#

And get ready to spend a lot of time doing it because unless you want a nightmare to deal with enable mods 1 at a time starting out.

novel umbra
#

I'd rather go on nexusmods than google tbh

ripe tendon
#

Doesn't really matter for a modding guide. If it's popular enough Google will send you there anyway

novel umbra
#

oh yea

#

tbh modding the game is msotly extremely easy

#

nexus mod manager and loot make it easy

ripe tendon
#

Pretty much. Just time consuming. It's like an addiction sometimes too, lol.

novel umbra
#

this makes it very easy to get load orders right

#

works for all the bethesda gamebryo/creation engine games iirc

#

so bethesda fallout as well

keen urchin
#

@ripe tendon Found that guide. Also STEP. which is better?

ripe tendon
#

No idea. I've never used STEP. Seems like a modpack, more or less, that is made to look Skyrim look better with a few fixes while staying true to vanilla Skyrim.

#

Staying true to vanilla Skyrim is not why I mod so I guess I never came across it.

keen urchin
#

STEP is a guide

ripe tendon
#

That would definitely be why I never came across it then, lol

#

I was a wing it and break it and fix it Skyrim modder

#

Very frustrating but kinda worth it at the time

orchid prism
#

Sensible reasoning re: not supporting Mac and Linux anymore in RL.

novel umbra
#

yea it is sensible, not saying that

fallow bronze
#

dx9 on linux and osx? 🤔

#

did they use the wine wrapper or something?

orchid prism
#

What I don't get is why they don't just go Vulcan and double dip. Eff Apple. They made it clear they don't want games 🙄😄

fallow bronze
#

because that requires work

#

and constant testing

orchid prism
#

Not really?

#

It requires... A rework of the engine, which they're already doing.

novel umbra
#

Yea

#

Vulkan would be a decent choice

fringe salmon
#

They said they looked at Vulkan and found it better/easier to go to dx11 with what they have instead of Vulkan

#

Sounds like something that shouldn’t matter if you have a solid foundation but who knows if they have a shit backend or not

keen urchin
#

Most likely reason is: It's easier to stick to currently set deadlines if they use DX11

weak cypress
novel umbra
#

There was no reason for it either way

#

Wc3 ran fine on modern pcs

#

Only reason would be online play

orchid prism
#

Oh please. Blizzard don't care. They're just covering their ass.

#

No one wants to get sued for someone making a DBZ tower defence map.

#

Business as usual.

small comet
#

yep

#

i mean they prob didnt expect wc3 maps to blow up this big

#

and spin off into their own multi million dollar games

fringe salmon
#

No they just want to not hate themself for not buying dota when they could and dont want to lose another game idea

#

Like tony said

small comet
#

except this wouldnt apply to game ideas

#

while the map itself is ip of blizzard the gameidea itself isnt afaik

#

plus even lol and dota2 arent what dota for wc3 is/was

#

imo the wc3 map is still better

orchid prism
#

Blizzard can't force you to give up code or assets.

#

Their TOS doesn't hold water.

#

Besides I can think of SO MANY maps in SC2 that use existing IP.

small comet
#

like i can get them securing layout etc which would consist the map

#

as in the visuals

#

but code etc is literally something they cant just force to give up

#

super cool that old wc3 maps just work right out of the box

orchid prism
#

Yeah exactly. They can definitely copy a good designs and turn it into a new Dota

#

Wait they just work? That's awesome news. Was worried the encryption would fuck with the loading. So many modders trying to protect their maps.

small comet
#

so far all of the old maps i tried worked super fine

orchid prism
#

Noice. Will have to break out my old obscure maps.

how long have you owned it?

fading spade
#

Since 2018

orchid prism
small comet
#

psure u wont get that refund

fringe salmon
#

nah there's a chance, bc of the no more linux thing they are offering refunds under certain conditions beyond the normal ones

fading spade
#

they are offering refunds

#

but the website links back to steam support -.- so hopefully steam knows what going on and accepts requests for the game

small comet
#

but

#

rocket league is still on linux?

fading spade
#

Yeah but you cant play online or the shop + friends wont work

#

and trading

#

you cant do anything online anymore in the game

small comet
#

i mean i could give a comment on this if i really wanted to

fading spade
#

do

small comet
#

u chose to use an OS that is not widely used for gaming in particular

#

imo not the fault of the devs

fading spade
#

its the fault of epic games buying out the devs

fringe salmon
#

no they would've done the same without

fading spade
#

Doubt it

small comet
#

i dont

#

do u know how hard it is to dev a game to work on 3 systems and crossplatform?

fading spade
#

how is cross platform hard?

#

the servers are not run on the client

small comet
#

because netcode has to match thus if theres a bug on one os they have to fix it so they dont break other OS's

#

this isnt like discord or smth

fading spade
#

hmm

small comet
#

where they can fix it for 1 client later but update the rest early

#

literally everything has to work the same for online crossplatform

fringe salmon
#

because changing DX9 to DX11 is less risky/less work than completely switching to vulkan or supporting both

small comet
#

and that

fading spade
#

so when they said "new technoligies" they meant the new DirectX?

small comet
#

like DX pmuch advertises itself to be easy to switch to newer versions

fringe salmon
#

64bit instead of 32 and they are switching to dx11, thats what they said on the offical post

small comet
#

the 64bit is prob not the main reason tho

#

id say mainly dx11

fringe salmon
#

those are the two things they are doing, but yes, 64 bit doesnt really matter in OS support

small comet
#

dx for any other os than windows is a bitch tbh

#

when new games only come with dx12 u wont be able to use win7 anymore either

fringe salmon
#

yesn't

small comet
#

well ill say yes

#

dx12 runs best on win10 from my limited testing

fading spade
#

doesnt it only run on wndows 10?

small comet
#

yesnt

fringe salmon
#

they recently made it run on win7

small comet
#

only for certain games tho

fringe salmon
#

less than half a year before EOL'ing win7

#

no they made it open for all after they first made it a thing for WoW

small comet
#

uh no

#

well yesnt again

#

wow was the only game actually released in that time

#

but they worked with multiple devs

fringe salmon
small comet
#

didnt see that

#

anyway back then it was multiple devs but only blizzard got it out before that then

fringe salmon
#

ah maybe idk, always thought it was just a dumb idea

small comet
#

anyway i still didnt see that much of a perf boost on win7

#

while playing wow

fringe salmon
#

no the main point would be that you can develop it in dx12 but not alienate win7 players

small comet
#

u still somewhat do

#

with shite performance

#

i mean sure the hardcore win7 bois can play

#

but theyll be like "it barely runs better but i heard its running alot better on dx12"

fringe salmon
#

one team tries to get win10 to be on more machines, another team in the same company wants more dx12 things so they offer more reason to stay, it makes no sense imo

small comet
#

or "i read a guide that says dx12 give X% perf gain"

#

and i guess this wasnt a M$ decision

#

but

#

well

#

win7 gamers

#

and their outcry that they cant get the "perf gain"

#

which is what literally everyone wanted like 2 years ago

fringe salmon
#

but so close toward EOL it makes no sense, a year or 2 earlier I could've seen the idea, to give people a reason to develop on dx12 only

small comet
#

same with vulkan... people heard it makes doom run better and they wanted vulkan in every game

orchid prism
#

It does though.

#

Doom runs butter smooth on even low end PCs.

fringe salmon
#

nobody said anything else, it just doesn't mean adding vulkan to a random game makes it also run better

small comet
#

exactly

#

but thats what gamers thought

#

and my best guess is they thought the same about dx12 and thats why windows made it public after they saw it being able to run on win7 and not just win8 and newer

keen urchin
#

How can you even 'add' Vulkan to a game?

#

You build games on it...

fringe salmon
#

by adding support for it

small comet
#

u dont build games on a graphics lib

#

u build them on engines

#

engines use different libs

#

some engines can use multiple libs by giving them a certain setting

ripe tendon
#

I think every game that has dx12 that I've tried has given me much better performance with dx12 vs 11. It's a bummer it isn't the case for most or even reliable for most

keen urchin
#

It's sorta weird, but often D12 gives better perf than DX11 with an AMD card, but the difference is often much smaller or even negative with Nvidia cards

I wish I was her because then I would have a beast computer and be cis gurl

#

woooooo

#

i had a shitty computer ;-;

weak cypress
#

What's stopping you?

fading spade
#

money

weak cypress
#

Did she start with a load of money?

fading spade
#

she is twitch streamer

#

she make money from people watching xd

weak cypress
#

Go on.

fading spade
#

becomes the most boring twitch streamers who no one donates to

small comet
#

not with that atitude

weak cypress
#

That's the spirit.

#

You need a hook, and a network.

small comet
#

no to both

#

u just need to stream smth ure passionate about

weak cypress
#

That helps, but a network is probably the most important part.

#

You'd need to hang with cool people instead of these nerds.

fading spade
#

get a spare phone and make tutorials on how to flash custom kernels

small comet
#

for example

fading spade
#

probably be the only one doing that without an india accent tbf

small comet
#

ud need to keep at it tho constantly

fading spade
#

true

small comet
#

so upload a vid each week or so

#

and dont give up just cause u dont have 10mil subs after a year

weak cypress
#

Upload a vid? Do you know how live streaming works?

fringe salmon
#

yes but you don't seem to know upload speeds in ireland KEKW

small comet
#

last time i checked u dont stream tutorials

weak cypress
#

That sounds like a niche market to me.

small comet
#

so?

weak cypress
#

An untapped one.

small comet
#

this dude

#

restores paintings

#

its boring af tbh

#

yet i still watch way too many of his vids

ripe tendon
#

lol, some turd asked me to trade 2 games for Dying Light Bad Blood...a game they are literally giving away for free to DL owners, haha.

orchid prism
#

😄

small comet
#

@ripe tendon what 2 games for smth that costs nothing? great deal bruh id literally jump on that deal instantly

ripe tendon
#

they wanted 2 of my SYNTHETIK, Death Squared, or BATTLESLOTHS 2025. No crazy games for sure but not for a current freebie that I have access to

#

Just some user spamming 190+ free game offers with their bot to other users. Likely those with low feedback so they think they don't know any better, I imagine.

#

Can comfirm now, Skyrim SE is MUCH more stable than LE when modded

bronze niche
#

but how is the modded switch version

small comet
#

u mean

#

how is the switch version

#

since

#

its the same as any other console

#

and pc

#

its just SE

bronze niche
#

last time I went to the modding site I usually use it had a mod section dedicated to switch

small comet
#

ya cause they work differently when loading

#

the game itself is the same tho

bronze niche
#

well

#

no fucking shit

small comet
#

same bugs and glitches as on pc

#

like 1:1

bronze niche
#

other than motion controls apparently

small comet
#

well "motion controls"

bronze niche
#

I know

#

smh

#

but it is "different"

small comet
#

the only difference is FS structure

fringe salmon
#

Yeah but i don’t want to know what they had to change in that buggy engine just to change filepaths

Blasphemy, Tom Howard descended from heaven and he bore that game engine in his arms, it is the perfect game engine, flawless

Heh

#

WC III Reforged didn't go so well for Blizzard, it seems

orchid prism
#

Yeah... mixed bag there. Some legitimate complaints, and then some childish ones.

keen urchin
orchid prism
#

They showed off some new cutscenes at Blizzcon...that they reconsidered. So that's warrant for a refund.

They also changed their TOS which got people's underwear in a bunch...but it literally didn't change in practice.

keen urchin
#

A common complaint I see now is that people owning the original game can't seem to play it any longer?

orchid prism
#

Yeah - Blizzard basically released a patch that turns the old game into the Reforged client, except without the new graphics.

#

Which was done to let them keep playing Ladder and custom games with new players...but they also added some weird bugs to the campaign.

#

So...rushed, forced release

small comet
#

easy fix

#

use the cracked copy

#

and dont patch the new thing

#

ez pz

#

i agree with mansen tho that this is prob not blizzards fault but the activion part of actibliz

orchid prism
#

Mhmm.

#

I 99% play custom games for 4player LANs with friends, and every map I've tested works fine in Reforged. With new graphics at that.

#

Bueno

small comet
#

ya its just that its missing things they promised

#

including the reworked editor

#

new map features etc

orchid prism
#

Here's hoping they fix bugs fast, and the pressure from fans force them to get the editor in.

small comet
#

wha

#

the editor is in

orchid prism
#

You just said otherwise bcaWhat2Confused2

small comet
#

i just said theres no reworked one

orchid prism
#

That's what I meant... 😄

small comet
#

prob wont happen in the near future

orchid prism
#

Otherwise modders will just continue using the fan based editors with the reforged assets linked in. Like in the old days 😄

small comet
#

they promised new map features etc for the editor and more functionality in general

#

as in more programmability and shit

#

which is why people feared old maps breaking

orchid prism
#

I assume they're using a modified SC2 engine. So they gotta be careful 😄

small comet
#

i assume they actually got pressured into releasing their game 200years too early

orchid prism
#

Now I just need modders to re-do SC1 properly. In 3D as it was supposed to be 😄

Blizzard should have just tried to do warcraft 4

small comet
#

would have failed the same way

small comet
#

i eish they could have stayed their own studio and not this bullshit activision mix

fringe salmon
#

or get a better buyer, like microsoft who seem to leave their studios work pretty much independant

small comet
#

or that

#

i mean they do have some thibgs they will prob want like weve seen with mc

#

but geberally its untouched

elder swallow
#

Activision really went full stonks mode a long time ago

#

Cant remember the last good game they made

#

I remember enjoying cod world at war

#

Mw2 was when I thought it was becoming a bit over the top and stopped buying

keen urchin
#

Last good game by them I remember is Civ:CTP

orchid prism
#

The Civ game that wasn't Civ 😁

keen urchin
#

It wasn't?

orchid prism
#

It was a spinoff. They lost the license by the time the sequal was going to be released.

It lets you do a lot more different things that Civ II never did

#

Like a Space View

tacit rose
#

Right, because I was a dumbass, anyone here who wants a code for American Truck Simulator: New Mexico (I brought it twice), just mention me here and I will send it to you in DM XD

fading spade
#

is that a DLC? I dont have the base game xd

tacit rose
#

yeah, its DLC

fading spade
#

ahh, fair

tacit rose
#

it was on sale on humble, thought I didnt have it and brought it, found out then that I did XD (been claimed)

keen urchin
#

@orchid prism Too bad I could never get it to work again since Win 7 :(

#

CTP was great, imo a worthy successor to Civ II

#

Anyway, got Skyrim running with like 130 mods so far, mostly meshes and 4K textures

#

But you really notice that it's a 2011 game

#

4% CPU, 22% GPU, stable 60 FPS

#

But so much motion lag I get sick/migraines after less than 5 minutes

orchid prism
#

😄

elder swallow
#

its pretty nice how far game engines have come along with using multiple cores and such

wraith edge
#

you know how you can walk faster in csgo but be cuiet, Can I get band for doing that?

If you're just using features built into the game why would you get banned?

@wraith edge you can't do it in ESEA and faceit

orchid prism

#

or why does it have nothing on it?

orchid prism
#

Used. Hackable

#

Previous owner reset it before shipping.

novel umbra
#

oh ok

small comet
#

just get hbg

#

and atmos

#

ez pz free games

bleak pike
#

piracy scene strong im guessing?

orchid prism
#

Probably.

orchid prism
#

Possible to jailbreak.

#

Which in my case means using it as a handheld emulation device to replace my PSP.

bleak pike
#

😦

#

I need a new game

small comet
#

why does everyone say jailbreak

trim rock
#

Because you break it out of the manufacturers jail, giving it freedom to run whatever software you want.... at least that's how I see it

small comet
#

except the only real thing thats called jailbreaking is ios related

#

in all other scenes its usually just called CFWing

sleek gorge
#

not quite as catchy

small comet
#

altho there was ps3 and ps4 who also called it jailbreaking i think

#

but to come back to the original topic ofc piracy on the switch is booming

#

theres no real Way to demo most games just like on the pc

orchid prism
#

Jailbreaking is the easy way to say it. IT's what anyone can recognize. And it's not entirely wrong either. 🙂

bleak pike
#

Shh does it matter

orchid prism
#

😄

#

For arguments sake though CFW is the big option. You can do temporary breaks.

small comet
#

well with switch its recommended to do the injection way anyway

#

and emunand

#

so a 128gb microsd is pmuch a must

#

i mean 64gb is a possibility but ud only get 32gb od useable sd space

orchid prism
#

I'll perma CFW mine as soon as I get a stable temporary one going.

#

And I grabbed a generic Kingston 128GB to get started with. Should be plenty for emulation. 🙂

small comet
#

i will actually suggest against perma cfw

#

since it technically breaks the fw 1

#

and should fw 2 also break ure actually fucked

#

rather mod a joycon and use a phone to inject payloads on the go

#

i mean there will be cold boot fw at some point in the future

#

i mean if u ever need to reboot u can just go to hbmenu anf launch the reboot to payload

#

never need to cold restart a switch to update cfw or anything

#

and you will want to use incognitorcm to delete the console cert

orchid prism
#

To each their own. I like having a permanent solution. Not like it's going online ever again. Or running a single Switch game. 😁

bleak pike
orchid prism
small comet
#

like i said if fw2 for some reason gets corrupted you can buy a new switch

#

300$ paperweight

#

not that any cfw is permanent anyway

#

its all temporary

#

its just "permanent"

#

atm only fw1.0 is perma cfw-able

#

it has cold boot and all

#

not sure how you define permanent

#

but yes to each their own was more to inform you the best way possible so you didnt spend money on a future paper weight

orchid prism
#

Not a fan of modchips in handhelds, and there's only a finite number of old Switches that can be Fusee'd

#

It's permanent in the way that matters to me 😄

#

I... have just been told AutoCRM does not auto-tether. Guess I'll need to keep it on at all times regardless.

small comet
#

yes

#

thats what i told u

#

its not permanent

#

the only way is modchip or fw1.0 switch

#

for untethered aka permanent

orchid prism
#

Ufff... looks like I'll have to order a jig. Been at it for thirty minutes with paper clips 😄

small comet
#

oh noe

#

never do tzhat

#

and even jigs are a weird thing

#

order a high quality one

#

saves u from broken pins down the line

#

since they can easily break due to scratching

orchid prism
#

Honestly this was just for a proof of concept. I definitely want to order a more permanent solution.

small comet
#

thats why the actual recommended method for long lasting pins is a quality jig that slides in just ike the joycons (so the pins are curved and dont stab the small pins in the rail) or you place a resistor between the pins inside the right joycon

#

or mod chiping

orchid prism
#

Feel free to link me a good one on Amazon 😄

#

I was just looking at a 3D printed one tbh

small comet
#

they all are

#

the difference is the metal insert

orchid prism
small comet
#

some basically just place in a piece of wire

#

that scratches the pins just like a paperclip

#

and then theres better ones with thinner bend ones

#

that just slide in like a joycon

orchid prism
#

Sure - Still doesn't help me get closer to a good one 😄

small comet
#

those are rather expensive tho

orchid prism
#

Also american 😄

small comet
#

ya just look for the nice curved pins

#

idk where to get good jigs

#

i modded my joycon

#

easier to use on multiple switches

orchid prism
#

Welp. Ordered this one - Here's hoping they can ship from UK to DK in a day as promised 😄

small comet
#

lol

#

inb4 drone drops it off

orchid prism
small comet
#

what fw is the switch on

orchid prism
#

Uhh.... 9.10 or something?

small comet
#

so latest

#

nice

orchid prism
#

Yeah it was basically in use up until I bought it. Just system reset.

#

At least I got it fairly cheap and with a 128GB SD

small comet
#

how cheap?

#

btw how do u know its unpatched?

#

serial?

orchid prism
#

Serial indeed.

#

240€ for it in great condition.

small comet
#

could get one for 175 only needs display replacement

#

actually not even

orchid prism
#

Not around here you can'd 😄

small comet
#

only the touch infront

orchid prism
#

But if I ever break this and it doesn't make sense to repair it, I'll ask you where to get one for sure 😛

small comet
#

sad i dont have the money for it rn

#

otherwise id buy it

#

they have another for 180

#

also unpatched

#

sad times

#

id even grab both

orchid prism
#

Anyhoo - One thing at a time.

Proof of concept
Installing emulators
Buying some new joycons in a fancy colour...or just new shells.
Profitssss

small comet
#

"installing emulaturs" Kappa

#

aka drag and drop onto sdcard

orchid prism
#

Yeah there's a nifty ninite like site that packs an SD card for ya. Very neat

small comet
#

hope its a good one

#

wouldnt be to hard manually either if u just want emus

orchid prism
#

Just lazy tbh 😄

#

Retroarch usually gets the job done on any consoles.

small comet
#

i can see that i mean extracting one zip to the sdcard instead of 2 is easier

orchid prism
small comet
#

btw dont bother with hekate

#

just use fusee

orchid prism
#

Figured as much

small comet
#

for you theres nothing to gain from hekates multiboot or super configurability

small comet
#

an optional thing id still recommend even if you only plan to use it as an emu now is to do the whole incognitorcm thing

#

just makes the switch unbanable and basically revertable to a fully functioning stock switch in case it should be ever needed

orchid prism
#

unbannable

small comet
#

yes literally

orchid prism
#

Said no jailbroken console owner ever 😄

small comet
#

no its literally unbanable

#

cause

#

it removes the console cert and only stores it on sdcard

#

thus the console cant auth with nintendo servers

#

and nintendo cant ban the cert

#

cause its never send

#

it removes all nintendo online functions but allows you to freely use wifi etc for everything else homebrew related

orchid prism
#

If you say so - still skeptical 😄

small comet
#

no literally is

#

you can also "unban" a console

#

by using another switches cert

#

thats their way of console banning since i think the wii

orchid prism
#

Time will tell 😄

small comet
#

i mean 2 years have i been using cfw and stock on the same console

#

still no ban

#

both use the internet

#

1year

orchid prism
#

I meant re: my console. Can't get banned, if I don't have custom firmware yet 😄

small comet
#

not 2

#

oh ya

#

i mean u could still get banned even without cert if ur switch ever crashes and u dont have a nand backup from before doing the first cfw boot

#

we dont kow how nintendo knows if crashlogs have been cleaned

#

but if u do u get banned

#

if u dont and u crashed in cfw u also get banned

#

if u connect a fully working switch to a nintendo service with the cert

Love that I can throw 4K textures at the VII and it just shrugs them off like 'no big deal'

ripe tendon

5700 xt is decent at 4k too isn't it?

#

I'd like to see some new Witcher 3 4K benchmarks

elder swallow
#

depends on if you can tolerate lower than 60 fps

keen urchin
#

Witcher 3 Ultra runs 140FPS on my VII at WQHD

#

A 5700XT will be able to handle it at UHD

ripe tendon
#

I could get 60 fps with a 1080 Ti only the Witcher 3 with a few things turned down. You can probably manage ultra with a decent cpu. I was using an old Xeon

ocean spade
#

@ripe tendon depends if 1080, 1440 or 2160. 1080 is heavily dependent on CPU, 1440 is mixed and needs a good match between CPU/GPU, and 2160 currently is heavy on GPU more than CPU.

bleak pike

this pretty much sums up why i love lback flag

fallow bronze

The pirate part is fun. The AC part is pointless and droll. Also the boss ship battles are pretty uninspiring.

fallow bronze
#

sorry

bleak pike
#

@orchid prism I’m excited for skull and bones tbh

orchid prism
#

Yeah... I've had a gameplay trailer of it on our store PCs for ages

sleek gorge
#

Yeah I'm very keen for that game. Whenever it comes out...

fringe salmon
#

im skeptical optimistic, I got burned by sea of thieves

sleek gorge
#

Sea of thieves has it's moments

#

I haven't played it long, but I've always enjoyed it

#

But I think if I kept going it would get old fast

fringe salmon
#

its fine with friends or family or fun game to joke around, but it just had nothing on release

#

I got enough out of it to consider it a good game, but on release they 70$ were a scam

sleek gorge
#

As did I, and the one thing that stood out prominently is how salty their discord server was

#

I went in and asked for help with ADS controls, as there was no way to increase the sensitivity above a super sluggish pace

#

And man, was that a bad idea

#

Just getting so much anger from people because I wasn't happy with how the game is and "it's fine on xbox"

#

But other than that, fun for a few hours

#

I suppose more people inevitably means more bastards

fringe salmon
#

oh yea ADS not changeable sucks, the fight system is definitely adjusted for big noobs/xbox

#

and oh boy yea the xbox elitists are strong in that game

trim rock
#

Yeah it was definitely barebones on release but I was roped into a group and played with them a lot, was decent fun for a bit... but I'm not insane enough to complete the grind to become a pirate legend, the grind is just too absurd

fringe salmon
#

if you play smart and with events and such it's not a grind that much anymore

#

but jesus christ what the fuck did people on release do to grind to legend on that build

#

on release people grinded that shit like it's the WoW on console because it has 3 missions that are the same but reskins instead of 1 repeated mission

trim rock
#

Ffffuunn...

fringe salmon
#

I did some grind, then did the ship raids, island raids, that gave a shitton, then achievements give blue coins that you can trade for ranks with the factions and that rapidly sped up the leveling

#

but I just can't understand how people like the fighting mechanics so much that a big part actually plays the arena mode where you just fight

trim rock
#

People play that? Last time I tried arena I was in the lobby for 20 minutes with at most 4 other players joining

fringe salmon
#

its been months since I last played so idk

#

maybe it was just people trying it out at first then

trim rock
#

And yes ship combat is ok, pirate skeleton whatever combat is godawful

fringe salmon
#

tried it once, thought "yup, this sucks" and went back out of the game

#

we had a 3 man crew and the middle size ship they added later was actually amazing for that

#

so that worked out really nice

#

even with two people that middle class was just the best option

fading spade
#

DAMN BOI

small comet
#

so anyway ya just wanted to learn how easy it is to switch enabled hacks, how they work for the hacker, how they look for others etc

#

cause u see those pros doing overwatch videos and deciding on people anc saying "oh ya hes using spinbot" and shit

fading spade
#

They look for other hackers?

small comet
#

thats how csgo works yes

#

if u arent caught by automated systems then reports are queued into the overwatch system

#

there people with a certain criterium can review cases

fading spade
#

Ahhh

small comet
#

and give judgement

fading spade
#

Interesting

small comet
#

exactly

#

i had the plan to basically get educated myself first

#

and then do overwatch videos

#

that teach pmuch everyone else

#

for example have u ever seen a player just randomly spinning around and headshoting everyone?

fading spade
#

No cause I don't play csgo xf

small comet
#

not csgo specific

#

well its not called spinbot

#

at least in the inner circles

#

exactly

#

cause only everyone else sees that

#

officially its anti aim

#

not really useful in the purpose of csgo since hitboxes are pretty optimized

#

constantly changing hitbox rotation and angles yes

#

then the next interesting thing

#

wallhack

#

completely useless on its own

#

cause csgo also there very optimized

#

player data isnt send for every player

#

only in a certain radius

#

its almost like gps

#

too far away it gets sloppy

#

so usually us use minimap hacks for it

#

also silent aim

#

really nice thing tbh

#

it is

#

like as in

#

the game is boring then yes

#

exactly

#

silent aim is prob one of the most ingenious things ever

#

literally instead of making you aim towards the head

#

it just flings the bullet in the right direction

#

and this can be adjusted to be super accurate

#

or also have randomness

#

it is

#

easy

#

dont use spray patterns

#

welcome to the source engine

#

basically

fading spade
#

:')

small comet
#

the server relies on the client doign those calcs

#

so that servers can run smoothly and not check pattern s etc every frame

#

cause especially with p90 etc this gets really heavy

#

so each client does it for their own

#

but what if the spray pattern is completely ignored

#

straight shots everytime

#

or shots in very specific directions

#

thats why everyone hoped csgo would get source2 at some point

#

but ya theres super many nuances to hacking and how someone can hack

#

like with the right settings you can prob appear super legit

#

so anyone wanna play a round

#

yep

#

same

#

also rather boring

#

cause

#

there is enough preconfiged files for my cheat for example that appear legit

#

as in automatically relying on actual randomization for headshots and small aim assist etc

#

and having reviewed some recordings of myself

#

i couldnt even tell if i was cheating or not

#

well yes and no

#

yes cheaters want to beat other players but from what i can tell having talked to many its more like an ego boost to them

#

they completly blur out that they are cheating

#

and only see the rewarding part as having killed someone

#

correct

keen urchin
#

Like drugs?

small comet
#

yes

#

blur out the negative part

#

and concentrate on rewards

#

and this gets addictive

#

fast

trim rock
#

just fucking permaban them from all games forever, fuckers ruining games forcing invasive anticheats and shit, probably will eventually push all gaming to streaming services

small comet
#

can still be hacked

keen urchin
#

Let's not go down that rabbit hole

small comet
#

anyway i will prob actually do full on rage hacks on the second account to get it banned and forget it about it

trim rock
#

I think the point there is to give yourself that small boost

keen urchin
#

Or, save yourself the time learning to play legit

small comet
#

combination

#

the small boost and thus better rekking

#

and not needing to spend years training

#

and refining skills

#

not directly

#

more a decent status

#

u oinly need to generally aim the right direction and run

#

have a small sense of the game itself

sleek gorge
#

In singleplayer games I get it, you're only changing your experience which is fine

#

Multiplayer, there's a very limited amount of scenarios where cheating is fine by me. For example GTA online, people who would make it snow, spawn rare vehicles etc. That's harmless imo

bleak pike
#

It’s annoying

I dunno, grind is part of game design
I don't particularly mind it

#

People always act as if it's something bad

but games can have bad game design, and in singleplayer you can only take away from yourself so there it's really whatever

cheating is sad no other way around it. If games have bad design in your opinion don't play it

Yeah, but then why play the game in the first place?

if you like 90% of the game but hate 10% you can still enjoy the other 90% if you cheat away 10

For every gane with x design, there's another one with y design

grind is essential for creating the right pace for progression. welfare gear defeats the purpose of progression

Maybe I'm the odd one, but I think cheating is like looking up the solution to a Sudoku puzzle. Why bother?

#

because the puzzle has one interaction and you cheat 100% away in that case, if you play idk some shooter and you really like everything, style, gunplay, sound, story etc. but one weapon you want is behind an easter egg that takes 10 hours, you can still enjoy the rest of the game by giving yourself that easter egg weapon

unique bane

that reward will feel much better when you earn it
