{Contest} Kill the computer! Hydroneer at Minimum Requirements

[long sand]

I am currently testing how many drills it takes to kill it.

[spiral shoal]

do you need a big save?

[long sand]

send anything you want me to run on it.

[spiral shoal]

set the keypad up top to 1000 for full 2 FPS fun
or i mean, 2 FPS on my PC

i have a bigger save but i'd need clearance from its creator

[long sand]

hah it can't really run the base game! this might kill it immediately

[onyx fossil]

{Contest} Kill the computer! Hydroneer at Minimum Requirements

Messed up the spacing. Title should be good now

[worldly yoke]

I'm sure @brisk oak will be able to wreck this

[onyx fossil]

the hard part is getting the save to load smoothly, then crash so hard it BSOD's the computer once you turn stuff on

if the save is too big, it just won't load

[brisk oak]

My min specs are more than what the engine can put out. But my latest save does take about 5mins to load up.
Good to go Steef.

I can get ya a newer save too

[spiral shoal]

that's probably better, yes

[brisk oak]

Sent

Max, TY for the Tag buddy, means lots.

[spiral shoal]

i'll run it on my PC to get your baseline

[brisk oak]

ok, is that my save? If so, I didn't you'd share it here

[spiral shoal]

ohh... sorry then

[brisk oak]

no worries

[spiral shoal]

did you send it to him directly? or are we aborting

[brisk oak]

I sent my save to you Steef 😉

[spiral shoal]

thanks for that

the purpose of this channel was to abuse his min spec pc lol; guess we'll make do with my own 1k drill save for that

[brisk oak]

Ah, ok, I reread things. I can send it to him then.

I sent him some msg's and my most resent save

[spiral shoal]

i got 80-92 FPS staring to the floor in south hope
14 FPS looking at south hope build
allright time for my FPS to shit the floor... looking at the main valve and turning it on

[brisk oak]

Be sure the belts are turned on too 😉

[spiral shoal]

looks like it

[brisk oak]

There's belts on the back side too. I forgot to turn them on before n oh my was it laggy. 1 fps every 20seconds 😮

[spiral shoal]

oh let me clear the ore and check

i see your save still has the start stop bug 👀

my dirt tester had that for a bit too

[brisk oak]

yeppers

[long sand]

yikes! its taking a while to even load in!

[spiral shoal]

allright time to measure frames per minute

[spiral shoal]

yeah, took me like 2-3 min

[brisk oak]

Takes my 9900k n 64GB ddr4 3200 speed ram around 5 mins are so to load it, lol

I think my save uses around 11GB's or so of ram

Never timed it though

[spiral shoal]

hmm i need some animated thing so i can count frames
but i dont want to look at belt hell

ok i got a dripping pipe going

[long sand]

only using about 2.7GB sofar

[spiral shoal]

uh oh

i'm stealth recording it so i can sleep on it and see the FPM rougly

[long sand]

this could take awhile...

[spiral shoal]

or i guess SPF is good too

[spiral shoal]

yeah, turning on all of the drills takes a bit too lol

[long sand]

OAH I LOADED!

[brisk oak]

Sweetness

I'd suggest a 10 second drill burst.

[spiral shoal]

This is perfect for FPS counting

[long sand]

seems to be missing a few pipes

[spiral shoal]

if his min spec PC can even do that without stopping

[spiral shoal]

i made a T pipe in the corner so i can count the frames

[brisk oak]

Yeah, it's still in the building phase

[spiral shoal]

i need to hurry with the 10K project it seems

[brisk oak]

Gotchya

[spiral shoal]

well i mean the only purpose would be most lag without using a magnet

[long sand]

how would one go about turning on this machine?

[brisk oak]

I can show you on stream if you like.

[long sand]

is it at south hope or ember cradle?

[brisk oak]

South Hope

[long sand]

ah that makes sense

it spawned me at ember cradle

[spiral shoal]

let me guess, you looked towards the hill lol

if you look across the map towards SH, fps dies already

[brisk oak]

it's a little huge, lol

[long sand]

i see it 😄

oof thats a bit laggy

[long sand]

that would be helpful

[spiral shoal]

i'll go and sleep now, though i think my FPS wont change

[brisk oak]

Ready when you are, on Twitch now

[long sand]

AH i found the valve 😄 im dieing!

OH NO

eh i still have 2-4 fps

[brisk oak]

sweet

I'm loading up on my stream to help ya out

[long sand]

alright

[spiral shoal]

currently i have 8.8 seconds for 10 frames. we'll see if it mucks by morning

[jolly sail]

#Toaster

[digital bolt]

Now remote play the game

With someone than see how much fps you get

[clear cloak]

You all are overthinking it.
Just send in a save with a single pan with a few thousand gems inside. No lag until you touch the pan, and then a total crash as it attempts to leave the ground.

[spiral shoal]

Crash, you say?

[onyx fossil]

PTSD flashbacks

[onyx fossil]

dig through #1029129547297333279 for some heinous files

[digital bolt]

Wait is that the file you were talking to me about

[brisk oak]

Diggingbandit, I hope the long walkthrough helped out a bit.
I did run 1080 T2 Drills for 1 minute for ya, but it looked like your name left my chat just beforehand, hope all is ok and no pc on fire, not that this game would do that(game engine lags out first, usually)

[digital bolt]

How many fishes?

Spam spawn fishes until it crashes and take screen shot of how many it took lmao

[spiral shoal]

how do you screenshot it when its crashed 👁️👄 👁️

[digital bolt]

Give the save to a different pc or person than have them screenshot it

[onyx fossil]

Elgato will screen record until the crash

[spiral shoal]

it doesnt save because it crashes..

[digital bolt]

Elgetout with your overpriced capture cards

[onyx fossil]

no on another computer

[spiral shoal]

i dont have a capture card :eye;

[spiral shoal]

then still, it doesn't save before it crashes

[onyx fossil]

like one computer records the Min-spec ones

it'd be like recording a console

[digital bolt]

Use the other computer as a capture card?

Hmmmmmm

[spiral shoal]

you have fun paying 600-800€ for a capture card

[digital bolt]

Smart

He could actually record until the crash

Good idea

[onyx fossil]

ive had my PS4 crash when streaming, and the elgato just records the black screen until it comes back online

[digital bolt]

[onyx fossil]

they're only like $200: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014MQIVPS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

$250 for the newer model: https://www.amazon.com/Elgato-Internal-Capture-ultra-low-latency-dp-B07VWXCXM7/dp/B07VWXCXM7/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

[digital bolt]

This is why I say elgetout of here with them overpriced capture cards

[brisk oak]

or just use those high priced cell phones to record your screen, lol.

AverMedia 1080p capture card( I use one) only cost around $130'ish and it does great for 1080p streaming to Twitch.

Maybe I can fire up my 2001 Pentium 4 desktop n test my huge 1080 T2 Drill setup on it, lol.

[spiral shoal]

Sadly "only 200" is still too much money for me

[woeful carbon]

what would happen if you used geforce now

[brisk oak]

That wouldn't use the pc, it'd use GeforceNow, of course, lol.

[woeful carbon]

i was asking because i wonder how well it would run your massive save
