dude tell me what to do
@@peak swift Go to settings and set to ENG language
@peak swift error 1 soln dude
They said I have to do it using Chinese version
Now they are all gone
@peak swift u there??
Lost me dude
wait
then tomorrow
Yeah
powerful CPU
wow
which os you have ?
w7
right click on speaker open volume mixer then max your tgb volume
then use different headphone
my headphone it's normal
the problem are in the game sound
i playing cs:go and do not happen't that
@peak swift anything ??
i can hear normal
but with lowest volume
are so hard to identify where is footsteps
change your equalizer setting
@peak swift
It's in the max
in game settings too?
yep
i think my headphone driver do not supports emulator
i don't know
set to "default" ur headphone
try to turning on "Loudness Equalization" or "Auto Volume"
When why clean my cache my game is gonna been removed?
@peak swift nop
just will reset ur settings in the game
is anyone lagging a lot on tencent buddy?
Always....
that's your pc being outdated for the game m8
or maybe integrated graphics
or your internet is bad
outdated? 8gb ram, amd a10, amd radeon r6 (512 mb) and I have 50+ ms on Asian server...
my laptop can run bf3 and bf4 on low settings hehe
Well, the fact its emulator and it can take my fps to 30 limited... After cpu fix there are some improvements or my settings should be working
what is your specs?
16gb i7 7k 5gb gtx 1050
Then you asking for lags here man?
Well, idk about that.. I'm here for to fix my emulator! sorry if I bother you
check your settings
I was on Directx+ switched to smart mode, and dropped from 2k HD to 1080p, I still play ultra graphics, tho
I'm on smart mode and I can play little good
My amd a10 have 4 core and 8gb ram but if the tgb takes all cpu usage so setting on any numbers won't work ...
Still any advice would be apricated! ๐
untick render and enforce
first 2?
ye
everything else good?
yep
@peak swift
ur pc is not bad
but "emulation" takes lot of power computing
so... emu needs 2~5x more power than games
Is phoenix os better for low spec?
Render cache, render global cache and rendering optimization, how they affect your frame rates and stuttering? Any advice because if any of them helps me in reducing my lag then I will untick them for sure
I know my rig can go up to 60fps in this game, I have played many heavy games then this, for eg, World Of Tanks, I have played it on medium settings and 95% of the times or more I got 60+fps and WoT is one of the few games that are CPU based!
And if it is true that the emu requires more power than the games then Tencent should launch it on Windows Store as a game by itself like if u want to play Pubg Mobile on pc then go to the windows store or steam and install it from there
Games like WOTB don't require an emu for u to play it on, simply get it from steam or Windows store and they work without any stuttering and also they gives a lot better frame rate compared it if u play it on any emu
Because WOTB it's made for PC (x86 architecture) and not for Mobile (ARM architecture)
This is where emulation comes in.
so it requires a lot of the PC
@peak swift umm, wait
@peak swift actually mate, it was created for the mobile devices first, then it came on Windows store and steam
that is mobile version
Yah but u can play cross-platform
yeah
So if the Pubg Devs make Pubg mobile at x86 architecture then it will be really good
but pc already has a pubg version
@peak swift I mean the pubg mobile version mate
Pc also has a world of tanks version other than blitz version
But wargaming still launched blitz on pc because of the demand
They didn't even gave a shot to put it on emu, they made it directly for the Windows store and steam
mobile is for mobile devices ๐
we play on the emu (a type of cheating)
they will not want to unite the two worlds
Then create a pubg emu oof
even using emulator, has filter to join only those who are in emu
Exactly
And it should be on that Windows store version too
Or they should fix their emu
U took too long to write that though xD
(A little pubg's fault, even in the mobile it is very poorly optimized)
I myself see a lot of problems in TGB, sometimes a lot of stuttering, sometimes an error, and a strange issue is with me, that is when I aim too much down or up and if I click there then the taskbar opens or date and time settings opens or start menu opens etc
@peak swift u r really true
yeah tgb sucks ๐
However that issue doesn't seems to come when I set the game resolution to 1080p but then the world doesn't renders nicely ๐
set to 1080p and "display HD"
the view distance will be great
but fps will drop too much
Btw, for those who are having a problem in which when they throw a grenade or when the spectate someone and that guy throws the grenade and then the game freezes but u can still hear the things going in background like moving and walking, the problem only comes in AMD graphics and the solution to that is updating the driver
@peak swift that's why
I m myself depressed now because of the fps and I can't tolerate it letting it go more down
What I m typing oof
Gtg cya
๐ค
i got it
Emulator is too laggy nowadays
we do not have any specif time or date for the season 4 update, please keep an eye on the #news for any further information.
@hollow dome that's a funny way of putting it. The game was designed to run on an android device, and the emulator is designed to emulate an android device so the same game can run on a windows PC
whether or not Tencent have put in code to help it run better in the emulator that it would without we don't know, but I suspect that they have
so in effect, the game+emulator as a single system were designed to run on PC
One thing though that needs to be said - PCs vary considerably in performance. Tencent have never indicated what the minimum spec for TCGB is. People having performance problems fall into any of these categories - emulator is misconfigured, PC is misconfigured, PC hardware is underpowered, user has unrealistic expectations of performance. Quite often I see those who complain the most fit into at least two of these categories lol
so while the whole system (game+emulator) was designed to run on a PC, the performance that you get depends on many factors. This isn't all that different to running the game on Android, though I think people are more realistic about how well their android device will perform for gaming than people here complaining about TCGB performance.
@neat sedge Do you think this emulator will be able to break free from it's 60fps curse like all the other emulators
Cemu, PCSX2 has done it
@gleaming rock for two reasons maybe not
first off, the game has a built in frame limiter that maxes out at 60fps - this would need to be disabled
second the game runs in a borderless window which has vsync
so we'd need to be able to disable vsync as well
@gleaming rock there was something I saw yesterday that I wanted to mention to you if you have a momemnt
let me get a screenshot from my laptop, this will be of interest to you
Okay
might take a minute or two to boot up and get in game BRB
I'll wait
will be as quick as I can
while its going in - were you aware that on laptops with no discrete GPU, the overall TDP of the CPU+GPU is shared?
and even on laptops with discrete GPUs, the iGPU can sometimes suck cycles away from the CPU?
damnit windows update has kicked in and I can't get a clean reading
Knew about that one but as sometimes the performance of many people who come here complaining about FPS are usually using a terrible seting rather than having a decent hardware
@gleaming rock I tend to disagree
that says more about "expectation of performance" than something measurable
"decent hardware" is a judgement call - to me, all that matters is the FPS
For example I've seen people with an 8600k get worse performance than people having a cheap laptop cpu like a 7200u
I usually create a list of what settings they must use and most of the time it works for them
I'm listening
unfortunately this isn't a clean trace because windows update is running in the background, hence you'll see disk and CPU are pegged
but you should notice that both GPUs are active
even though I have set the game to use only my Nvidiia GPU
this is because the game runs in a window, and the Intel iGPU is handling desktop compositing
now my CPU is maxed out and my iGPU is thirsty too
but they share the same overall TDP and the CPU cannot clock higher because the iGPU is very active
on a laptop without discrete GPU, the load of the game is shared between CPU and GPU within the same TDP
the more GPU load, the lower the CPU can clock up
the whole integrated system is hitting thermal limits - only Intel really know how a 75% CPU and 25% GPU load will get balanced
My IGPU always seems like it doesn't exist as the performance on the Task manager shows little to no usage
as it is, even on my laptop, I can't hit max clocks on the CPU end as my iGPU is sucking watts and pushing me closer to the TDP limit
yeah me too most of the time I ignore its existence. However it seems that this is wrong.
it is definitely having an impact
there is a nontrivial load on the iGPU
which means the CPU gets less of a share of the overall TDP available
on a system with a weak iGPU and a low TDP, this means a severe impact on performance
so that would be u-series and other low TDP chips
I reckon I can clock higher with a CPU-only load
Also how can I tell if I can replace the cpu on my laptop or not
Does the cpu have to be "Not M series" in order for me to do that
no it seems I'm wrong there I can't reach higher clocks with a CPU-only load at 100% on all four cores
@gleaming rock I have no idea if you can change a laptop CPU - you can't buy a laptop CPU retail either, or can you?
I suppose a clever refurbisher could pull a CPU from one laptop and put it in another, but details on socket compatibility are scarce
you'd be on your own there ๐
anyway, it is not a contentious point that the iGPU takes performance away from the CPU
in a situation where you need 75% CPU and 25% GPU, you are going to see problems the more constrained you are
@neat sedge I mean I heard that you can use a desktop cpu on a laptop <if it fits the sockets>
But not sure if it's true
@gleaming rock I'm sorry but I have no idea on the likely feasibility of that but I think the cooling solution would fail
and we're back to TDP again lol
remember you need X amount of cooling for Y amount of heat output (TDP)
laptop cooling solutions and PC cooling solutions are VERY different
That was my biggest concern but someone told me that this problem can be countered by using better cooling methods like
Thermal pads or paste
Going back to what I was saying. The thing to remember - the takeaway point if you like - is that the iGPU shares the same die as the CPU cores.
it has to work within the same TDP envelope
any time the iGPU is active, it impacts on the performance of the CPU in high-stress conditions
in other words, if the iGPU is highly loaded the CPU might not be able to reach full clocks, and vice versa
how Intel balance this kind of load I don't know = more testing required
nearly everyone here who comes to complain about perf has a laptop
food for thought
We currently do not have a specific release date for the upcoming update. Once we do, we will publish further information in #news.
@hollow dome sorry mate no idea
england
I must be about the only english bloke that plays this game as well
@neat sedge Since you said you're from england
I am starting to think you have a voice similar to captain price
not really
but I did live in London for 15 years nearly and I can do a good captain price impression
@gleaming rock good morning
mornin
Who is captain price is this a price tag ๐
COD4
@gleaming rock had your breakfast?
"how'd a muppet like you pass selection" "soap? what kind of name is soap?"
@hollow dome Captain price is one of the most memorable characters i've seen in a video game
which is why I can still quote him years later
also having lunch
@hollow dome is it good?
@gleaming rock wow
I would like to try it
@neat sedge average
@neat sedge All right soap it's your turn for the cqb test you have to run the cargo ship solo in less than 60 seconds
Gaz holds the record at 18 seconds, PICK UP THE MP5 and replace any flashbangs you used
๐ค
In my whole village no one plays pubg except me
@neat sedge lmao
Anyone here is a mobile geek?
BRB
@neat sedge me to ๐
I have gamers all around here but they don't really have a fixed category as not sure what they play
@gleaming rock
Not a mobile geek dude
@peak swift not a geek but know about mobile
my phone is running into a problem dude
@peak swift i can help i think
@keen reef do you have twrp installed?
@peak swift whats a twrp actually? R u talking about android or what?
anroid dude
@hollow dome If you played COD beta,
Did it have any single player or just some multiplayer
well that clears it you cant help me haha
oh
@peak swift btw whats up with twrp?
UMM I just installed android p
And it worked fine actually
but after reboot
my device aint taking touchess
@peak swift u mean touch input?
@gleaming rock i played single player
And can't even restart ur device now?
hold the powerbutton for 9 seconds
That's why i never try custom roms
@peak swift u can restart it or what?
I can. but im just thinking why is this happening
i was hoping if anyone could give a solution
@peak swift it happens due to incompatibility of app for a device, as u know. There are many android versions so there are chances of this to hang phone easily
I just prefer u to restart ur device then it will surely fixed
@hollow dome Single player in the mobile version?
Interesting
the only thing i can do is restart lol
No it zombie mode i guess
@peak swift not exactly actually unless u know how to reset ur phone using volume keys
@hollow dome Zombie from Black ops?
That doesn't really count as single player
@keen reef i know that
Le 2
@peak swift hmm same specs as my phone
Worst phones
@peak swift should have taken a TWRP backup before flashing dude
was it not an official rom?
I've used LeEco le 1s it has network problem since i purchased
I've never heard of this brand
@hollow dome its a budget fon so can't expect more
either way, not really the place for it - try XDA
But i use mi. Devices one of best in my opinion
I have a bunch of Oneplus phones now, not sure if I'm a fan but I keep buying them
@keen reef am using asus since 4 months feels good
@hollow domeasus has heavy duty devices
I'm still here using NOKIA
Not even a joke
@gleaming rock I used to have a windows 10 phone. Not a joke either.
Can't tell which one is worse
Nokia made some great Windows Phone handsets
I have two device one for calling one for gaming purpose
dedication to the cause
In India there is only brand Rules and its Xiaomi
@neat sedge lumia 1020 was the beast with 41 mp camera the first ever fon with that great camera
Dudes
I had destiny 2 on my battle.net account
It's 104gb
Not gonna download it ever again
@keen reef I didn't have one, but I had an 830, 930 and 950 - all had great cameras
@gleaming rock what 104 gb
@gleaming rock isn't the last day it is available free?
Yeah dude
I thought about getting it, but I don't have a battle.net account and can't be bothered with more launchers
I added it from my browser
Those windows phones are sold these days at 40-50$
anyone using any other os/emu other than tgb and how's the experience?
@hollow dome you couldn't give them away now
These daya*
@robust temple Been using Memu
Pretty good but similar to TGB
Lol typing with left hand
#emulator-chat is dead 'cos we're all in here lol
guys I've got to head off for a late lunch, catch you all later
Anyone use poco F1???
Emulator chat has slowmode
@keen reef my friend uses asus Zenfone 5Z
Instead of poco
@hollow dome im talking about Mi poco F1
Cuz im thinking to buy it looking for some reviews
@neat sedge Since you're from europe I wanted to ask
Do the Russians drink more Tequila than Irishmen
Do the Irishmen drink more Beer than Russians
Or is it the other way around
I Never saw that device

@keen reef Never said I was
Hello Frands drink tea
@hollow dome
don't remind me of that woman
@gleaming rock do you drink tea
๐ ๐ ๐
@keen reef lmao
@hollow dome I prefer Coffee with a side of salt
@gleaming rock just kidding dude
Theek Hai
Or guessing
Anything goes trending in india ๐
@hollow dome yr tea pine se muje pimples ho jate h so i don't drink tea and also don't like
There corrected
@gleaming rock dude he was asking do u drink tea?
I answered it
If you scroll up
When i told my villagers that i talk with people's from another country they be like pikachu ๐จ
@hollow dome where u from?
Pikachu๐ ๐ ๐
@gleaming rock i also prefer coffee but with milk without salt
@hollow dome What do you mean "They be like Pikachu"?
@gleaming rock he means they got amazed by knowing that he chats with foreigners
The latest Pikachu meme
Oh that suprised pikachu meme spammed on reddit
Yeah
People forget about the Muk reaction every time he sees Prof oak
That's what I do to nobody
@hollow dome remote? Indians ki trah btade state
Assam
@hollow dome i see the state of tea
Yep
Please talk in Emu chat
Ur originated from their or what
I don't want the admins to notice
Jio has provided us the reason to live
@hollow dome Go to #emulator-chat dude
@gleaming rock just realised something about what we talked about earlier, I'm a complete doofus
Realized what?
Whether or not the CPU/iGPU can reach full clocks is wholly dependent on the cooling solution
assuming the cooling solution is scaled correctly to the TDP of the processor, and the workload doesn't exceed Intel's design limits, it should reach full clocks
A small detail I missed as well
But can make a big difference in practice
I'm a doofus
iGPU doesn't take performance away from CPU
its thermal throttling that would cause a reduction in clocks, and only that
so anyway feel free to ignore my next brainwave ๐
going in game now for a bit - HMU if you want to join
@neat sedge I found that superfetch makes my disk usage 100%, turning it off will affect my pc drastically?
I have it turned off
Oh k, I will do that too
and I also have added an exclusion for antivirus on my TCGB folder
Do u use third party anti virus or Windows defender?
Turn off superfath and prefetch
@peak swift now u r telling me like I m a kid
I was just too lazy to do so
That's why I asked it here
Sorry, I did not want it to look that way.
i'm Brazilian! It's so hard chat in eng ๐
I still dunno what superfetch does
But know what Prefetch does
Well gotta go again
@peak swift np man, xD
@gleaming rock SuperFetch is a technology in Windows Vista and onwards that is often misunderstood. I decided to delve into this technology to see what it is all about, and to dispel some of the myths surrounding this feature.
Very succinctly put, SuperFetch is a technology which allows Windows to manage the amount of random access memory in the machine it runs on more efficiently. SuperFetch is part of Windows' memory manager; a less capable version, called PreFetcher, is included in Windows XP. SuperFetch tries to make sure often-accessed data can be read from the fast RAM instead of the slow hard drive
That's a copy paste btw
If I will copy paste more things about superfetch, will I be treated as a spammer?
@silk comet tell me please
Thanks for fixing the lag/freeze issue!
Oh, I forgot, it was fixed but it wasnt you
Thanks for nothing
Can someone help me here please? I got some issues where the emulator installer keeps getting restarted when it reaches 100%
I looked online and couldn't find any solutions
@peak swift why not just reflash a stock image? depending on your device you might be able to do it from fastboot mode, or from TWRP with a zip file. Should be able to use a power button + vol up or down to get into one or other of those modes maybe
and ALWAYS take a backup before you flash a custom rom lol
@topaz temple it's a known issue I'm afraid. Tencent recommend temporarily disabling your antivirus but as far as I know, if it fails to install or fails to boot the emulator after installation it will basically never work
Rip
Hmm i will try it
@topaz temple let us know how you get on because so far, if it fails to install properly there's no fix I currently know of
Aight, its gonna take long to find out, since i got a bad net >.>
My tgb still fails to be above 40 fps
Was there actually a fix?
Well my game used to be 40-55fps always
It's getting annoying
Fps drops
Well i can play on phoenix os 3.0.6 above 50 fps
But it doesn't help me record anything
There are no good recorders
Unfortunately all PUBGs have Optimization as a problem, PC version, console version and after updates Mobile version
All due to the Unreal engine
I hope pubg project thai OBT comes soon
That engine is too broken
im also waiting for project thai too
So i can finally stop PUBGM
Yeah that is the only hope for emulator players
The only complain i have with Project Thai is his graphics, Ultra doesn't seem to surprise me
I think they could add a bigger option to make the graphics stronger for powerful PCs
@ @tame raft what is project Thai ???
I haven't played in it's CBT but it looks like a lite version of Pubg PC
I played cbt
Its so smooth
Game is well optimized
I wait obt too but i think it takes so long
@gleaming rock did the emulator actually get fixed??
@plush delta How do you define "Fixed"?
I mean what problem are you referring to
If it is the 100% cpu usage then yes it got fixed
The game will suffer poor performance if you don't use the appropriate setting or have a decent pc
Can you tell me the exact name of the cpu
Like is it an i5 8600k?
And what's the name of the gpu
The VRam of your gpu doesn't really matter here
Wait so is it a 940mx?
@plush delta A 940mx with 2gb DDR3?
If yes then you can try my settings
@plush delta Something I want to correct
Don't mind me if I'm too nerdy
Don't use the word "lag" for low framerate
Cause it doesn't make sense
Since LAG mostly refers to any kind of Input/output/connection delay
Like Input lag
network lag etc
Yes so that IO delay is between the CPU clock cycles and the game engine
Thus lagging performance
That's bound to happen since this emulator is in a rough state
What kind of processes are running on your background?
Since this is a cpu dependent software I disable processes like steam, origin etc
@gleaming rock I got 4gb ver of graphic but other than gta no game use more than 700mb of memory
@peak swift Depends on the game most of the time
TGB doesn't really use that much VRAM so it doesn't matter that much
I uninstall whole emulator and game then it got worst game is not even playable
If only pubg pc gameplay was as good as emulator
But it's settings issue I install phoenix and got best results on pubg and other games soo
@plush delta I still disable it still
As far as I know about how emulators work
They get smoother as you play the game
The performance drop mostly when you encounter new type of area or object for the first time
Btw @gleaming rock whts Ur sliver role on Ur profile
@peak swift You get it once you reach level 30 in this server
Go to #481204134859505684 and type !rank
Check #481198147478224896 for more info
Well I got a test so gotta go
@tame raft What was the problem dude
Guys is that anyway to run whole pubg mobile game in gpu with highest graphics possible because i have 1050ti but cpu is pentium g4560 which quite cheap ?... Can u guys ask the developers about this?
@here
@cloud nacelle This is an emulator so it will be mostly dependent on your cpu and programming it to use the gpu more often is the biggest challenge for all emulator devs not just for android emulation, so your question is like asking car companies to make flying cars for public as it would be easier for people to use
Also using @here tag works only for admins
@cloud nacelle The best thing you can do is turn on "Prioritize dedicated gpu" in the emulator settings
and change the gpu usage to "NVIDIA/AMD" instead of igpu in the graphic control panel
I dont understand, yesterday i was play TGB no lag bur rn im lagging.
Ping or dm if u have a answer
Okay Thanks @gleaming rock Buddy!
@peak swift My best guess would be that they are prolly working on the server for the upcoming update
that's why maybe
Ok
@cloud nacelle isn't your rig bottlenecking?
@cloud nacelle unfortunately I have no contact with the developers directly, just a gamer like you
I don't think Phil does either, though he is a mod
Nope no contact
@cloud nacelle with a 1050ti, assuming all other parts are up to scratch, you should be able to max out the graphics in TCGB. My laptop has a 1050 2gb (mobile, obviously) andHDR in 2k res is perfectly possible
I don't use the built in AA though, its uglu
*ugly
Even if you maxed out everything the only thing that you can increase is the resolution
Try something like 2560x1440
hey @gleaming rock I'm still chewing on that TDP business. I just found out about power limit throttling and read this interesting article
I'm trying Intel XTU on my laptop now to see if it hits power limit throttling
I'll check it out
@neat sedge I recommend you delete the link as it's not allowed according to the rules
It's better if you dm it to me
interesting quote from the thread "A low power U series CPU is not designed to run at full speed indefinitely. Depending on the manufacturer, long term, it might not even run at the full Intel TDP rating. Buying a U series CPU is a real crap shoot. "
I'm not bothered about the rules lol, if I get banned I just won't come back here
I'm more of a benefit to the server than it is to me, if you know what I mean
Currently facing some problems with my keyboard o it's harder for me to type
There it is
The S key didn't register
so I found out - there are three types of throttling that affect Intel CPUs
there are two bits of software that can identify throttling issues - Throttlestop and Intel XTU. I'm playing with XTU now - its more of an overclocking utlity but it will tell you if your CPU is throttled.
I used XTU for undervolting my cpu
I'm just using it as a system monitor right now
I was wondering why my laptop doesn't reach full clocks under load
wait I gotta restart my pc to finish installing my drivers brb
k
my laptop is too fast for this test lol
I can't get it to throttle 'cos it hits 60fps just fine
never mind
but I'm still convinced that TCGB does not like u-series CPUs
nor old Core 2 CPUs neither
nor AMD APUs
I'm back
yay
@neat sedge I am using a U series cpu and let me tell you
It hates it but not that much
2 core 4 thread or 4 core 4 thread?
do you reach full boost clock?
Didn't check
task manager utilisation graph only tells part of the story
need to take into account clock speed
you need a 8 core cpu
if you're not reaching full boost clocks while playing, you could be throttled. There are three types of throttling.
@lethal matrix 8 core is not that necessary
@lethal matrix nope runs great on a 7300HQ
runs even better on a 6600k with a 25% oc
@lethal matrix do you mean 8 physical core or 8 logical cores or threads
@lethal matrix nonsense mate I do it every day
@lethal matrix probably not but I have it oc'd anyway for other stuff
@lethal matrix A quad core is enough
For this emulator
it is a point of fact that this game can be maxed out on a low-end gaming laptop, I've got one sitting right here
@gleaming rock sure but not a fix 60fps
+/- 2 fps
hp pavilion power 15-cb060sa
the game isn't glassy smooth either way - the built in frame limiter is poorly coded and the frame times are all over the place
@neat sedge what are you talking about ?
it will never feel exactly like a good PC game running at a rock steady 60fps
i got the game in 60 fps constant
@lethal matrix good for you but did you check your frame times
@lethal matrix if it works great for you that's fine. But you don't need an 8-core CPU to max out this game
end of discussion really
@neat sedge there is no doubt in my mind that more is better
@lethal matrix even
slip of the keyboard
more is better - more cores, more clock speed
but you don't need all that to have a decent experience
most of the people that come here for support dream of a steady 30fps at 720p
we are focussed on helping them
We are talking about the minimum for 60 here
Not as much as needed
I gotta restart again
My driver wasn't properly installed
BRB again
minimum spec
@neat sedge I want to talk about something involving graphics technology
Do you think Graphical and post processing effects like Ambient occlusion or other post fx settings will disappear once they perfect ray tracing?
@gleaming rock no
ambient occlusion is a kuldge
but other post FX like bloom, colour grading, light adaptation etc. will still be needed even if you have perfect lighting as they're part of the stylised look of the game
lets say we have perfect lighting in a game - ray traced reflections and shadows, the full works. Assume the engine outputs a HDR image - still need tonemapping to map it to a non-HDR monitor.
I have to tonemap HDR images taken with my camera to make them look right on a regular screen - real world has too much dynamic range for the camera, and way too much for a monitor
besides we don't just try to make games look real, sometimes we want them to look stylish as well
movies are heavily colour graded
Yes that makes sense but What kind of graphical effects do you think will be visible in future games
back in 2002 nobody expected for spucalar mapping to pop up
not even cubemaps
Do you think there will be something will replace or add to the list of current graphical settings
Now that we have PBR and HDR, if we have ray-traced shadows and ray-traced reflections is there anything else??
There can be
We never know
Dynamic AI
Or realistic particle effects similation
Molecular simulation
I'd rather see stuff that is more interactive than pretty
so that walking in the landscape leaves you with some sense that people have passed by
imagine PUBG but you could look at broken branches and footprints to see if someone had passed through!
Realistic particle effects can be interactive
Like wind blowing dust off of surfaces
or using any wind source to remove smokes from smoke grenades
PUBG would be great with more particle effects - it should look like Black did in a firefight
who remembers Black?
I've heard of it but never played it
its fun but dated
but the gunfights were intense, smoke and dust and sparks everywhere
not bad at all for PS2 era
I heard F.E.A.R. was good but never played it.
it also had great AI apparently - that is something lacking in even the prettiest games of nowadays. I thought AI and animation would get better.
Ratchet and clank is one of the most graphically impressive ps2 game I've seen
As well as Half Life 2
It was on the original XBOX
I always liked wipeout pulse - that looks great in PCSX2 upscaled
I haven't played many platformers like ratchet & clank though
and I didn't know half life 2 was released on consoles (then again, I haven't ever played it on PC either)
Speaking of wipeout I am thinking of a similar gamecube game praised for it's graphics
F-Xero?
Can't remember the name though
F-Zero X
Waverace?
Yes that
It was meh on Gamecube
but it was a launch title on N64, one of the few games we had
played a lot of it
but Mario Kart was just way more fun
I heard Red Dead Redemption 2 has a Decaying corpse effect
as a part of its attention to detail
and shrinking horse balls
yeah
when its cold
I still want to play all the uncharted games
I'd probably fit a bit of RDR and TLOU as well
just waiting for rpcs3 to get better lol
that's another one coming on fast
I have kept my old Xbox 360 waiting for Xenia to get gud too
one day I will sit and rip all my old games and try them
It's amazing how much Yuzu has improved in the last few months'
do they have a Patreon and full time devs?
Not sure
I heard they put bounty on their issues
First guy to fix it gets a reward
That guy can be anyone even outside of the team''
that's not uncommon in open source projects
they have a patreon just checked
maybe I will need an 8-core in my next upgrade lol
this i5 doesn't cut it according to some people
Or maybe a 16 core threadripper
my mate has gone full Ryzen, but then he plays Star Citizen
I will probably pick up a cheap skylake i7 next year
but the boy needs an upgrade for his box first like I told you
a fun little project
gotta go now'
me too - catch you later
So the update is coming after 6 hrs right?
Is the update is coming in game or we have to update from menu
@gleaming rock i honestly cant hit 60 fps on i7 3630 qm
With all the sorts of settings I've tried
It is a 4 cores 8 threads CPU btw
tfw pubg fixed lag a bit but mouse stutter is still there ๐ฆ
@velvet pendant What dpi and resolution are you using
@tame raft qm stands for quad core mobile so I guess it's a laptop cpu
Base frequency is 2.40 <less than mine>
Max is 3.4 <mine is 3.1>
What settings are you using
Would you mind reminding me again
When will the update be available for emulators?
@peak swift Since it is an in-game update it will most likely be the same time as of play store
You won't see the upgrade button, you have to open the game for it to update
hey admins :)...my mouse have extra keys...i tried to remap keys in TGB. but cant...help?
@scarlet wadi None of us here are the devs but as far as I've checked extra mouse keys are not yet supported on TGB not even macros
๐ฎ i see.TQ for info
Hi I find lots of lag in few days is there any way to fix it
@willow pelican Are you getting that 100%cpu usage bug If yes then leave the emulator open for a few minutes as there will be an emulator update in the background <No need to open the game during this time just the emulator>
I recommend waiting for the update which is most likely tomorrow as they must be tweaking the servers for the 0.9.5 update
@gleaming rock so kind of you ty
wait a sec
Ok
let me check the cpu again
@tame raft As I said earlier
4 cores
2gb ram
turn on only these settings : "Prioritize Dedicated GPU" and "Rendering Optimization"
Also other stuff I explained earlier about DPI
and API
@neat sedge I somehow managed to run
The custom rom
It's superb
Android 9.0
@gleaming rock yo Phil whatsup
When will the crew challenge be available for emulator players?
@peak swift good to know you got it working. I thought we were getting Android P for my Oneplus 5 soon but no sign yet
@neat sedge you can install the global beta
Well, there will be any improvements for emulator players from the new update?
@peak swifthow you install new updates in emulator ?
Well, there is 2 way first let emulator auto update the game or just reinstall the game.
But how update emulator
It isnt a client update
Not game
I remember that I waited much for last update but it didn't auto-update so I reinstall it and I got new update before my friends
@halcyon elm For Tencent Gaming Buddy, the dropdown menu on the launcher features an update button.
For manual game updates, the play button on the launcher will say "update" instead. Auto game updates will just simply update upon running the game.
Thx hex
Its normal to have 100% disk usage?
nop
When is the update released for emulator
anyone got the game update for emulator?
I do not
Nope
@earnest hearth not yet
Whether the update is released ?
Or yet to be..?
still waiting for the update @willow pelican
@summer ore no, it is seriously bad to have 100% disk usage, it will make your pc work slow! To check which application is doing this, head to task manager, click on performance tab and click resource monitor which u can see at bottom of the task manager, then click on disk usage list and check which application is doing this, simply Google the application which is doing this and get to know that whether it is good or bad to turn it off, or DM me for further details!
I have seen many cases saying that disk usage is 100%, even I solved mine yesterday
now i got problem Failed to log in. Please try again
Is the update out in India?
why does it shows failed to send the network request to check for updates
when i click on the update button it shows that
@stone turtle download mini malwarebytes in pc
Download malware bytes and run it and scan
Once the scan is done restart your pc
For more things see YouTube about that error
@willow pelican How's that supposed to help with sign in error?
Well if that works for you then I don't have any rights to stop you
Is there anyway to solve than this
Just follow the instructions they give
Is there anyway to solve than this

I didn't got the update on my emulator,I'm an Indian.
I dunno, did it even came on phone yet?
@vagrant bay all my devices are updated - iOS, Android & emulators. I'm in the UK so I guess its a regional rollout and you might have to wait a bit longer.
Season 4 Update will release on the 21st of November on IOS, Android and Emulators.
so season 4 update will roll out tomorrow?
Yep
DP + 3X Scope needs a fix
J got the update
@gleaming rock If I install the game on emulator. Will I downloaded 0.9.5 or 0.9.0 and then the ingame update?
If it is available then you'll install 0.9.5

Emulator is awsome new update fixed ping
Any one on emulator got standard engine instead of aow engine ????

hey ...i still have 100% cpu usage hel
@scarlet wadi what config are you using
@scarlet wadiand send a screenshot of your settings...may be some one will help
By config i mean specs
OK
update fixed something?
Hmm My pings actually got better
But the movement feels more stiff for me
Like some kind of input lag
When is will come update on emulator
I agree with the input lag
It was hell hard for me to aim on someone's head who was just sitting with 8x scope
No matter how slow i was moving my mouse the aim was jumping bits by bits
@near coyote Already out
@gleaming rock I'm here
Do i have to reinstall the emulator everytime when the a new update comes out? Or is there a way around it?
Okay so first go to control panel
@cinder compass You don't need to reinstall at all when any update comes out
@glad inlet Go to control panel first dude
Oh okay.
@glad inlet Then go to "Network and Sharing Center"
just write the entire instructions and I'll copy and save it. Thanks
okay then
From there click on the connections which has the name of your wifi network
Then click on properties
then from the list double click on Internet Protocol Version 4
and on the lower settings select "Use the Following DNS server address"
Then on the first box type: 8.8.8.8
and on the second box type 1.1.1.1
You can find better dns servers if you search on google
Another option can be using DNS benchmarker
@glad inlet And we're done
What should be my fps, i get around 30-40, can i get more by some change in graphics settings?
I have the same spec and I jump around between 40 and 50
Yeah its around 50 on home screen but when match starts it drops to 40
@exotic valve I am using these settings if you wanna know
So probably same
@gleaming rock thanks man
What do you search on google for best dns
@gleaming rock that's mine
@worldly mountain Well as I said Search for DNS servers
The best way is to download DNS Benchmarker
@exotic valve Turn off "Enforce Global Render Cache" dude
@exotic valve Also don't use that high dpi for that resolution,the mouse movement will fill odd
DPI in this game doesn't affect performance but overall UI size in other games and the android settongs Use this info
To get the best results select the dpi according to resolution
1024x576 = 120 DPI
1280x720 = 160 DPI
1366x768 = 240 DPI
1600x900 = 320 DPI
1920x1080 = 480 DPI
Whats dpi btw
Dots Per Inch
Think 1366x768 will be good for my config?
I use a higher resolution than you and I get a readonable performance
I'd say pin that msg btw, very useful info
Mine is 1536x864
Okk I'll try higher resolution too
I will maybe
Ight thanks. I'll try the dns
Anytime dude
@gleaming rock this setting help me , thanks
Anytime dude
@gleaming rock is your open GL is select on intel graphics card ??
