[tardy stump]

but their macs are kinda hmm

especially macos

[silver urchin]

Still gonna say no on that one

They don't make entry level PCs, so you can't compare them to entry level Windows PCs

That $300 laptop is never going to hold a candle to an Apple laptop

[tardy stump]

tbf their macbooks are nice

but i meant smth like the mac mini

[silver urchin]

I also think that's pretty okay, but I agree more

Mac Mini is weird, especially the newest one

I've actually thought about that to replace my laptop, but don't want to buy Apple

I'd also want to get another monitor so eh

[tardy stump]

you would be unable to game on it

[silver urchin]

Unimportant

I have a desktop for that anyways

[tardy stump]

oh wait i misread

oops

[silver urchin]

I use my lappy as my work pc

[tardy stump]

yeah but you would also need a portable monitor right

[silver urchin]

It'd just be replacing that, so it doesn't need to be super crazy or anything

[tardy stump]

i mean.... its so expensive

at least in aus

[silver urchin]

But I also want it to last for like 10 years

I don't want to buy a cheapo that'll have issues in 2-3 years and take itself to the dump

I'll pay double for a longer lasting pc

[tardy stump]

omg ive seen this vid of a guy building his first pc 10 months ago and he was like "i want full upgradability so i got x motherboard" (it was am4)

[silver urchin]

That's not hard to justify, can just apply it to my taxes later

[tardy stump]

hmmm wouldnt it be better to just replace it with a newer one later

[silver urchin]

Buddy...should've gone AM5

[tardy stump]

lol i dont think it was released back then

which is why he got memed

[silver urchin]

My laptop is already 10 years old, it's pretty ready for a replacement

Well, it's 9 years old next month to be exact. I'm rounding

[tardy stump]

i know for a fact that i would hate to run any 10-year-old machine, the ones my dad bought are painful

20 seconds to open chrome is just not it

[silver urchin]

nvm, June 28th it'll be 9 years old

[silver urchin]

Fun fact, I can restart my desktop at least 5 times in the same time it takes my old laptop to boot once

And it's not even using gen4 drives, just gen3 in gen4 slots

SATA be slow

[tardy stump]

i mean

tbf saturated gen3 is pretty fast

[silver urchin]

Yeah, but it could be faster

[tardy stump]

hahahahaha

my pc boots kind of slowly

[silver urchin]

I'll maybe upgrade it later, been thinking about going to AM5 from LGA1700 since 1700 has basically no upgrade path

[tardy stump]

i think it has to do with the memory controllers not really working out with the ram

AMD recommends 5200 but i set it to 6000 anyways

[silver urchin]

What's your cpu?

[tardy stump]

its

the

79

50

[silver urchin]

x3d?

[tardy stump]

nah

just the x

i kinda regret it i dont use the cores at all

[silver urchin]

Why not a 7800x3d?

It's better for gaming

[tardy stump]

but i also had the mindset that i didnt want to get a new one for a long time

[silver urchin]

Need it for more general tasks?

[tardy stump]

yes

but also

i got it in Jan

which was before x3d release

im not really sure if i would have bought an x3d that wasnt the 7800 either way

[silver urchin]

Your cpu's memory controller caps at 5200mhz

[tardy stump]

yeah lmao

so im probably getting slower performance by setting it higher

but numbers go brrrrrrrr

[silver urchin]

But numbers beyond what your hardware supports doesn't do anything

Except maybe increase power consumption

[tardy stump]

hmm

[silver urchin]

Not like your cpu will process the info faster just cause the ram can deliver it faster

[tardy stump]

haha

its probably also giving too much info and messing with the cycles

[worldly cipher]

A sign to get SATA SSD or M.2 SSD

[tardy stump]

i have

m.2

gen 4

[silver urchin]

SATA SSD is trash

[tardy stump]

the issue is most likely with the ram

the ram led stays on for a while as it boots

[silver urchin]

I have an mSATA on a SATA3 connection in my laptop and dang is it so much slower than my PCIe drives in my desktop

[worldly cipher]

I know but I can only afford SATA SSDs

[tardy stump]

arent m.2

50 bucks

(usd)

[silver urchin]

Yeah, I got a 1TB m.2 drive for like $40 a year ago

Some Intel drive, forget the name because it's just letters and numbers per usual Intel fashion

[worldly cipher]

I'm broke (student) so my upgrade option is limited

[vocal reef]

lol

[silver urchin]

But to use an m.2 drive, you may need a new motherboard, which means a new pc possible

So, I get not being able to afford that

[vocal reef]

my is limited too

[tardy stump]

lol new pc

[worldly cipher]

Luckily my A320 has m.2 slot sadly it's only 1

[tardy stump]

ouch

[vocal reef]

that is bad...

[tardy stump]

well not necessarily

[worldly cipher]

I'm storing some money for a 1660S for my 3200g

[tardy stump]

its just a pain

[worldly cipher]

Yep I haven't use the slot since M.2 is really pricy for me compared to SATA

[silver urchin]

Why that gpu?

Is it really cheap rn?

[tardy stump]

i dont believe that a 1660s is worth it?

[silver urchin]

If you're looking to play older games, it should be fine. But modern AAA games will die on it methinks

[tardy stump]

and i would 100% try super hard to replace the 3200g once u no longer need the integrated graphics

[worldly cipher]

Oh you have any good option besides 1660S

I did pick it cuz I've heard + Google bottlenecks with it is manageable

[silver urchin]

The 4070 is a great value, but also like 5x the price of a 1660 Super probably

[tardy stump]

i mean even then is a 1660s good value

[tardy stump]

nobody is buying the 4070 lmao

its like in stock everywhere

and this is right after release

[silver urchin]

Idk, it's a great value. It's like $600 iirc, basically matches the 3080 and uses less power than the 3080

It's a good gpu

[tardy stump]

it kind of matches the 3080

and yeah

its good when you compare it to nvidia gpus pricing

[worldly cipher]

3200G and a 4070 .... insane bottlenecks

[tardy stump]

in a void, however...

[worldly cipher]

And I only have a 500w

[silver urchin]

Yeah, that 3200G will bottleneck

4070's tdp is 285W

[tardy stump]

honestly tdp isnt that indicative of performance

[silver urchin]

Would probably want 750W or something

No, it's for determining power supply needs mostly

[tardy stump]

because u can have super efficient chipsets

yeah

[silver urchin]

And how much heat it puts out

[tardy stump]

i have air cooling for my 7950x and its working fine kekw

[silver urchin]

I do think a 1660S would be good to pair with that CPU, but idk if that's very worth the money.
It kinda feels like saving a little more and building fresh would give you a longer lasting machine

[tardy stump]

probably because going above 25% load is very hard

i would not buy a 1660s

[worldly cipher]

I did decide to go for a RX570 first but changed to GTX 1660S cuz ..... Date RX 570 is 2017 while 1660S is 2019

[tardy stump]

its not incredibly powerful and i dont think its super cheap

jesus christ 480 aud new

[silver urchin]

What about a 1650S?
Should play 1440p at 144hz in older titles

If the cpu can handle that anyways

[tardy stump]

woah woah woah

1440p

[silver urchin]

Modern titles will die for sure tho

[vocal reef]

i have 1600p

[silver urchin]

Older titles is the key phrase there, like 10 year old games and the like

[tardy stump]

it might just not have enough vram

oh my class is starting now

[vocal reef]

lol

ouch...

[worldly cipher]

I rarely play modern AAA titles

So 3200G + 1660S will be good enough for me

Also it's fine if I'm lock in 60fps ish aslong I can play the game with some decent quality

[worldly cipher]

I'll guess your 1600p is 1600x900 .... bruh it's 900p

[silver urchin]

3.68million pixels in 1440p, 1.44million pixels in 1600x900

That's more than double the pixels

[tardy stump]

Have u uhhhhhhhhh

Considered an a750

[silver urchin]

[tardy stump]

50/50 the drivers will keep updating lmao

[silver urchin]

Those have gotten much better than when they released, and they did drop prices recently

[tardy stump]

They are not bad now

[silver urchin]

I'm for supporting the new kid on the block too, but I'd probably wait for the B750

[tardy stump]

Do they have a release date

[worldly cipher]

Depends on the price

[tardy stump]

U gotta search it up for your region

Try looking it up now

[silver urchin]

Looks like Q1 2024 is the plan

[worldly cipher]

1660S is the cheap one

[tardy stump]

By how much

[tardy stump]

Hmm

[tardy stump]

If it's like 50 bucks cheaper I would still bite the bullet

[worldly cipher]

750 is $300 while 1660S is $150

[tardy stump]

Oh wow

Hmm

[silver urchin]

Intel GPUs also have AV1 encoding, but that's probably not gonna be too useful for you

Not $150 worth for sure

[tardy stump]

Ok in class now

[worldly cipher]

Goodluck

[tardy stump]

Surely it's much faster tho

[silver urchin]

Except it's not

[worldly cipher]

me having a 60hz monitor

https://tenor.com/view/rezero-rem-laugh-laughing-anime-gif-25098531

[silver urchin]

Oh wait

I was looking at the a380

My bad

The a750 is a little faster

[strong thistle]

A750 compared to the 1660 Super
1.AV1 Encoding and Decoding (Turing doesnt support Av1 Decoding)
2.Full DirectX 12 Ultimate Supports (Feature Level 12.2)
3.Bigger VRAM (6GB -> 8GB)
4.Bigger Bus Width (192 bit to 256 bit)

[silver urchin]

No DX9 support outside emulation though

[strong thistle]

[silver urchin]

So if they play a lot of DX9 games, then I'd still choose the 1660S

[strong thistle]

D3D9on12 API

[silver urchin]

or wait for battlemage

[worldly cipher]

Question is can the 3200G handle the a750 (low bottlenecking)

[strong thistle]

does it have Resizeable Bar supports ?

[worldly cipher]

Oh you mean the MOBO I'm not really sure but

I think not

[silver urchin]

You'd find ReBAR support in BIOS settings

Maybe in your GPU application settings, EVGA has it in their app for example

[worldly cipher]

Oh haven't seen that option

[silver urchin]

What about an AMD 6600 XT?

nvm, that's even more money

Your CPU should be fine up to a 2060 Super tho

[worldly cipher]

Money issues

1660S is the cheapest option

[silver urchin]

What about just going for a 1050Ti or 1650?

Those are pretty cheap nowadays

Should be able to get one of those new for under $200USD
And cheaper if you get used

[worldly cipher]

Oh yeah didn't think of that but I think 1660S is in the middle being cheap with power

Also I did some googling and foud out 3200G doesn't support Resizable bar @strong thistle

[silver urchin]

I'd avoid intel gpus then

Really wants ReBAR support

[worldly cipher]

A320M also doesn't support it

[worldly cipher]

So the A750 is out

1660S is the only way

[silver urchin]

I'd keep your options open, might come across some sweet deal

[worldly cipher]

I'll find who sells a 2060s (2nd hand)

[silver urchin]

And buying a gpu that will cause your cpu to bottleneck isn't inherently bad either. That's kinda something enthusiasts push since they want to get every ounce of performance for their money spent

They want to make their hardware burn

[worldly cipher]

Yeah also there's no such thing as no bottlenecks every (A)CPU + GPU will always have it

I'm just looking for that low bottleneck combos

[silver urchin]

I'm very much cpu bottlenecked on my desktop

[worldly cipher]

[silver urchin]

Can't even play over 60 fps in spiderman on max settings smh

[worldly cipher]

Ngl I'm used to game on low - mid settings 30-60fps

Cuz my 1st is a a8-7600 and now a 3200g

Guess I can call myself APU Man

[silver urchin]

My first pc had a pentium

[worldly cipher]

I decided to make an upgrade because Honkai will be upgrading there graphic system

[silver urchin]

they already did, they're just expanding it

[worldly cipher]

So I'm scared that in the near future my APU can't handle it (Unplayable)

[silver urchin]

If you can play the newer open world story chapters, then you should be pretty okay

But upgrades are nice~

[worldly cipher]

Yeah

I can't wait to graduate and work so I can buy a decent Pc

[silver urchin]

basically the first thing I bought when I got a new job

Saved a little so it wouldn't zero me out, but yep. Definitely took advantage of having a paycheck

[worldly cipher]

Anyway time to play Genshin adios

[silver urchin]

[worldly cipher]

Oh yeah one last thing the new Ryzen chips are weird for me

Why it looks like a puzzle piece

[vocal reef]

idk

[simple kayak]

how do u guys download sea server in apple when ur not in sea?

[silver urchin]

You see those exposed parts? those are SMDs, Surface Mounted Devices. Since they switched from having pins on the cpu to having pins on the motherboard (like Intel does), they moved some of the hardware from underneath the cpu to the top so that it could sit better in the new socket. Due to the positions, they couldn't use a normal IHS without increasing the size of the cpu and requiring a larger socket. So we get this weird shape instead

[finite turtle]

[tardy stump]

Grab the Intel 13900ks dewit dewit dewit

And then throw a stock cooler onto it

[silver urchin]

It doesn't come with a stock cooler lol

[tardy stump]

Hmmmm

[silver urchin]

Nothing above a 13400 does

[tardy stump]

Buy an i3 stock cooler

And slap it on

[silver urchin]

I have one from my 12400F

[tardy stump]

Pog

And then complain to Intel that their cooler doesn't work

[silver urchin]

I'll probably switch to amd though if I upgrade

[tardy stump]

Hmm yeah

Intel motherboards are kinda doomed

Same with am5 tho to an extent

[silver urchin]

I'd rather buy one high end AM5 board and be set for a decade lol

Well, probably will go mid-tier

I don't really need stuff like 5 m.2 slots, 3 is plenty

[tardy stump]

I meant the price not the upgradability oops

But yeah

I don't think AMD has committed to supporting AM5 for a decade tho right

I hope they do it would kinda suck if they didn't

[silver urchin]

I exaggerated a bit

[tardy stump]

Iirc they committed to one more gen?

[silver urchin]

But amd mobos are much better future proofed than intel's. Typically you only need to grab a bios update to get compatibility with new cpus

Intel? buy a new mobo lol

[tardy stump]

Pffff

Wait wait what Intel doesn't have bios flashback??????

[silver urchin]

AM5 will stick around as long as PCIe 5 is the standard. They'll move to AM6 when PCIe 6 is a thing

[silver urchin]

You can do bios flashing, that's a thing

[tardy stump]

Oh

[silver urchin]

The problem is that you can't get compatibility with newer cpus on older boards, like you can with amd

[tardy stump]

Yeah

[silver urchin]

They change the socket frequently enough to prevent that my theory is that chipset sales are a large portion of their revenues so they're incentivized to push sales of them

[tardy stump]

It's not inconceivable

[silver urchin]

There's still quite a bit of upwards mobility in the current gen for me, like I can go to a 13th gen, use gen4 drives instead of gen3

But if I wanted to do ddr5, I'd need a new motherboard. So

[tardy stump]

I was under the impression that Intel boards could support both

[silver urchin]

Idk, might as well just start over with the cheaper option in the longer term

[silver urchin]

Yeah, but mine can't

[tardy stump]

Ah

Rip lol

Is there customer support for irl merch?

[silver urchin]

i have a question
I'm downloading honkai on my pc for first time
and after the initial download
does it ask for some more download after entering the game
(like it does in the mobile (a few hundred mb in the playstore but quite a few gigabytes inside the game))
if yes, how much does it ask for?

[light remnant]

why is my download speed so slow?

does anyone know why?

thanks

[short brook]

sorry for the 3rd case after the 2 above me. So I encounter another "wrong server download". The "games" folder are already downloaded/installed. can it be used for another server? I want to transfer the "Games" folder from GLB server to SEA.

My friend is having that problem atm, but i told him to keep the "Games" folder because i had a feeling it can be used for the other server

[strong thistle]

#🔌technical-help message

you can use internet download manager or enable parallel downloading in your browser to download the update files

[stoic reef]

yes, and its about 15GB for full assets and 7 i think for minimal assets

[strong thistle]

if i remember you can use CollapseLauncher to convert SEA to GLB or reversed
https://github.com/neon-nyan/CollapseLauncher/releases

[short brook]

allright, let me pass that to him. thanks

[fathom ridge]

so a total of 15gb in the game plus 6-8 gb in the launcher, making it around 23gb

[stoic sonnet]

Hi guys

While organizing the files on my pc I came across these files in the Honkai folders, I understand that there is no Spanish version (my native language) for the game. However, I am very surprised to see these files with suffixes "Es", "En", "Fr", that correspond to languages, could anyone tell me what they are used for in the game, if there is someone who knows about game design or that kind of things, I would appreciate it very much.
(note, I don't pretend to modify the game, I'm just curious).

[lost venture]

en and fr seems for the in gamelang cause iirc the europe server (same client as na just diff server) has french

ES no idea at all on that one @stoic sonnet

@thick python serioulsy no idea how to fix it , am gonna try chkdsk again but everything on my D: was affected 🤔 idk how much of it was caused by the collapse thing or these things were purely coincidental same as my mic just not working at best reinstall but i dont want to go to the pain of it cause shit takes so long

[lunar gust]

collapse launcher caused disk collapse?

[lost venture]

so funny thing while it was updating it did this which i thought welp a reiunstall of the launcher would fix this then idk how coincidentally it must be but all my games where honki is located i.e D: just freeze a lot more, i thought at first pc was just too hot or something so i gave it a full day rest but opened it again and it seemed to crash and freeze way more so i did sfc/scannow and chkdsk d: /f /r to check and there was corrupted or bad sectors in it

but the freeze still occuring just as often as it was

[lunar gust]

check with crystaldiskinfo as well

[lost venture]

🤔 right

[lost venture]

also another very bad coincidental timing, my mic just not picking up my voice exactly around when collapse failed to update and did that thing in the pic, so like either BIG coincidence or that thing somehow fucked my mic

the latter is basically impossible me thinks but idk

[lost venture]

all is working fine it says 🤔

even the C:

[lunar gust]

check with victoria as well

could be hardware issue

which is the worst case

[lost venture]

this? , never heard of victoria till now tbh

[lunar gust]

ye, can just download from the official website tho
https://hdd.by/Victoria/Victoria537.zip

[lost venture]

idk how to intepret this shit

[lunar gust]

you need the test

select the drive and then go to "test & repair", then scan

will take a while

[lost venture]

oh the test n repair?

[lunar gust]

you can also select remap

if it will find bad (hardware) sectors, it will remap them

[lost venture]

this right?

[lunar gust]

you didn't select remap

it will just show you the errors, if there are any

you probably want to start this at the beginning of the day

otherwise gonna have to leave it running overnight

[lost venture]

do i pick verify or read?

[lunar gust]

read is fine

[lost venture]

kk ill do it on the morning then

will give upadte once its done

[lunar gust]

remember to set 'remap'

otherwise it won't fix anything

[lost venture]

yeh

[lunar gust]

if you see lots of errors tho...

like, hundreds

the drive is probably dead

or rather, one foot into the other world

those are read times btw, the blue one is the real bad one, other ones are not so bad

tho it's a little concerning if any red ones show up

normally the drive should respond quickly if it's not being used by any other process

[cosmic lion]

those files are just for the launcher, nothing in game
thats why you can open the launcher and its in your pc language (probably borrow from the genshin launcher now that the 2 are "the same")

[thick python]

This is actually weird. I'm pretty sure that Collapse doesn't even touch anything other than game files and its own executables.
you're running on HDD, aren't you?

Well, yes. There are few bugs existed but it shouldn't affect the disk though

[lost venture]

yeh like even I think its ridiculous but the timing on it is a little bit how do you say, really bad

[cosmic lion]

hey @thick python, idk why but collapse launcher wasn't able to update itself from .10 to .11 on my pc, just got stuck after the "download" finish never starting the installation process (i try like 5 times)
but i just manually update it by downloading again from git so im good now, it just to let you know

[stoic sonnet]

Oh

[stoic sonnet]

understood

thanks

[thick python]

Yeah, we have a really bad day for Collapse.
3 + 1 (soon) hotfix releases in one night

[left grove]

is it unusual for my artbook to be in transit for this long?

[thick python]

and yes, the bugs are really critical that we need to push the hotfixes ASAP

[cosmic lion]

GL with that

[cosmic lion]

it's normal, check where it it's with your track number, for example some countries can stop it from moving until pay some tax, that the local service don't put a track, etc. Still you can talk to CS to get assistance ( #how-to-contact-cs )

if you still don't create a username or link a email you can login to the game on your phone, go to profile, account, user data and finish those steps
or go to account.hoyoverse, login and fill the account security settings, keep in mind that this last one can still ask you to do the steps in game

[foggy otter]

quick question:

i created a acc with gmail then created an account with the same email(used to create the gmail but when signing in it was direct and not through gmail sign in)since then ive deleted the account created with the email(still in deletion phase) and want to link the email to the acc created with gmail
once the email's account is fully deleted will i be able to link it with the gmail? if so is there a way i can instantly delete the account.

[stoic reef]

so just to make sure i've understood this right, you created an account with the google sign in and then made another account with that google accounts email address? if so then yes once the hoyoverse account associated with your email address (not the google account) is deleted you can go to account.hoyoverse.com and sign in with your gmail and link the email address but there isnt a way to instantly delete hoyoverse accounts, the 30 day wait is an anti hacker measure so theres no way around that

[foggy otter]

even if i email them?

[stoic reef]

yes

if you're wanting to play on pc right away you can make a new email address and link it to your google account honkai account and then after your main email's hoyoverse is deleted you can go to account.hoyoverse.com to change the linked email

[foggy otter]

o

alr

[stoic reef]

if you dont want to make a new email then you can alternatively use the PC google play client

[foggy otter]

na imma just make a new email

[stoic reef]

aight

[stoic reef]

[cosmic lion]

[tardy stump]

did they

optimise the game or smth?

my fps doubled overnight??

[stoic reef]

No, they're would have been an update. Likely a driver update or Windows hogging less of it

[stoic reef]

[tardy stump]

well

on high render its now 120fps but on very high its still 40

and idrk what kind of update can give me +60 fps

[stoic reef]

Idk, if your driver got an update to optimize how is using shaders for instance that would have a huge impact, but could just be windows not bugging out and hogging your GPU if it was yesterday

Or the day before, etc

[cosmic lion]

Or that you are playing on less heavy maps/game modes

[stoic reef]

Yeah I was about to point out that all this is assuming that you're comparing the exact same map\stage with the exact same lineup

Since different characters and different maps use varying amounts of your gpu

[cosmic lion]

And about high / very high, for your GPU just play on high or bellow, the very high option use a 2.5x sampling so it's really heavy

[lost venture]

@lunar gust 🤔 the number near grid is an approx time it ends right?, progress is going steady nearly an hour going without problems i think

[odd wedge]

Updated

[tardy stump]

Oh yeah it was apho2 still

[tardy stump]

I guess that's possible

[lunar gust]

ye

[lost venture]

ah ok btw having greens here are still ok righyt? once its red is that when its really bad?

like bottom is worst case, but the higher is better? 🤔 so does that mean green/dark grey is around average

[lunar gust]

it's just read times

[stoic reef]

^

[lunar gust]

if some other application is doing something else with that disk, you may see higher numbers

since it's an HDD it will take more time to read

[lost venture]

ahh ok makes sense

[odd wedge]

ok i can speak now

hangover is no more

[stoic reef]

wb

[ashen bridge]

normal right?

[lost venture]

@lunar gust so left my computer for a bit then I came back seeing it frozen like this at 69.6%

🤔 its been like this for 10 mins now

[stoic reef]

if it only happens once then nothing to worry about. if it happens a lot then click yes and put the error.log in here

as well as your output log

1.Press Windows Key + R in your keyboard
2.type %userprofile%\Appdata\LocalLow\miHoYo
3.Send the output_log.txt here

[lunar gust]

I can see your HDD is filled with bad sectors by the logs

it's prolly dying

if there's any info you can still copy, do it

then replace the hardware

[lost venture]

welll doesnt seem like it

not to mention it doing this since earlier prob is not helpinh

oh its actually making progress still huh?

[willow falcon]

Well, UI bugged. Use App Caption to check progress

[lost venture]

once its done i just restart my computer i assume afterwards?

[lunar gust]

you can try running chkdsk on it afterwards just to make sure

[lost venture]

well ill just assume to close this then do chkdsk, /f /r right or just /f?

btw this is apparently what I saw on the logs

you know i only expected it to take like just the afternoon, but it went longer than I thought

[lunar gust]

hm

might not be completely dead, but it's starting to die

since physical sectors on the disk are dying

each HDD has backup sectors that it reassigns those bad ones to, but eventually it will run out of them

if you use that hard drive to store non-important files like games it's probably fine to use it for some time

I wouldn't store any important data there though

[lost venture]

🤔 welp i wonder how stupid it is making my own usb stick (just get a case then buy a m.2 2280 or something that can fit there) or its cheaper to just get an external ssd

a hdd is also fine still since i dont need the extra speed outside of boot times

[trim herald]

I have been getting the connection failure error (on mobile BTW) for some time now and I fixed it by copying the games data on my PC then deleting the game but after downloading all the games data it can't be transfered!
And I have tried everything I could find on Google and I don't want to delete the game and download it all over again.

[grand pike]

im searching how and where we can fight milsten or the imaginary taurus

but i dont found, is it possible to redo fight ??

[stoic reef]

thats a connection issue, the 4th pin has stuff to fix it. please try going down the list until its fixed (if you use protonVPN, dont use the japan connection, use either the netherlands or the USA)

[stoic reef]

milsten? i dont know who that is but you can ask in #💁gameplay-help since that question is more up their alley

[stoic reef]

hmm, tbh that doesnt tell us why d3d11.dll is doing that. do you mind copy + pasting your output_log here?

1.Press Windows Key + R in your keyboard
2.type %userprofile%\Appdata\LocalLow\miHoYo
3.Send the output_log.txt here

[grand pike]

it was the fight of hase the fight where bronya become thruth in the end

[stoic reef]

I see, since thats part of the open world im not aware of a way to redo that part but like i said i'd recommend double checking in #💁gameplay-help but im not aware of any way to redo that

[sleek vortex]

Hey yall, is there a way to delete the jp or cn dub of honkai so I can reduce the game's storage like how genshin does it?

Thank you in advance

[stoic reef]

not really, game by default only has jp dub for everything and the language choices only change the subtitles and dialogue texts and menus but theres only one dub for the cg's

[sleek vortex]

Ahh i see that's too bad cause honkai is taking so much of my storage, thank you

[stoic reef]

yeah and even if you change the non cg dub to cn theres no way to delete it really since everything is in a few giant audio packs

[vital ocean]

anybody know how to reset a password using a user ID?

everytime i try, it gives me the "account or password error" 🤷

[stoic reef]

make sure you arent accidentally putting a space at the end or anything. manually type it and all that. do you happen to have it linked to email or anything? know your UID?

[vital ocean]

i'm honestly not sure, i have this screenshot of my account but thats about it

[stoic reef]

that helps, so your in game nickname is not your username so that is probably why its not finding it. try a few email addresses that you have with the forgot password and if you cant find it then contact customer support #how-to-contact-cs your UID is that ID number there so they'll need that but just explain that you havent played in a while and cant remember the login and give them your UID

[vital ocean]

alright, thank you sm!!

[stoic reef]

np!

[uncut mauve]

why can't i hear anything in the game?

[stoic reef]

please first double check the in game audio settings, if thats fine then are you on ios, android or pc?

[uncut mauve]

iam on pc, and my audio settings just fine

[stoic reef]

then please first go to your volume mixer and make sure that the game isnt muted in there, theres two places to check, first right click on your speaker icon and click "open volume mixer" and then if thats fine click on your start menu and type "sound mixer" and click on sound mixer options and make sure the game isnt muted there either

[lost venture]

best guess is mysticism since he said imaginary taurus which is that

[stoic reef]

probably, but still cant be replayed either way

Is it possible to use an acc from phone to laptop/PC?

[stoic reef]

yup, but you'll need to make sure you have an email linked to your account since pc only allows username/email login. you can login on your phone and go to your profile > account and then click on user center to log you into account.hoyoverse.com where you can link an email address and set a password

[subtle ether]

so uhh my launcher isnt working whatever i do,i tried like uninstalling and reinstalling it again but it still doesnt work

[stoic reef]

whats it doing exactly?

[odd wedge]

How exactly does it not work, pls describe.

[subtle ether]

let me try it again hold on

nvm it works now for some reason..im rlly sorry for bothering you guys thx anyway!

[stoic reef]

its all good! sometimes its just windows being windows and you gotta try restarting it a few times

[ruby birch]

What's the typical size of the app

On iPhone

[stoic reef]

on iphone? i think its around 28GB full install

[ruby birch]

Ah ok thanks

That's crazy

Not long ago we were complaining about 11 GB

[stoic reef]

mhmm, pc version finally hit past 30GB this last patch

but iphone is either 25 or 28GB

i cant remember honestly

[ruby birch]

So like 60 GB by this time next year?

Roughly doubles every year right

[odd wedge]

You mean full game or just the minimum amount of assets?

[stoic reef]

idk about that lol i know the pc version has gone up about 7GB in the last 1.5 years

[ruby birch]

I think they're like close anyway

[stoic reef]

minimal assets is around 8-9GB smaller

[ruby birch]

8 to 9 GB is not much smaller to me I guess

Half as small at least

I'd be willing to say that's a lot smaller

8 to 9 GB smaller is still way bigger than the HUGE size we used to complain about

[odd wedge]

I didn't download the complete assets on android, it's currently at 18GB

[ruby birch]

Is there a way to undownload the assets without reinstalling game

[odd wedge]

sadly no

[odd wedge]

my pc crying

[ruby birch]

30 GB is arrogant

Any phone app that's over 200 MB is already arrogant

I give games a bit more leeway

[stoic reef]

ngl i cant remember back when the game was 11GB on mobile, maybe like 4.5 or something but its been forever lol

[ruby birch]

But 25 GB on iPhone

[ruby birch]

Not that long ago

[odd wedge]

growing a little too fast recently, i too not gonna defend

[stoic reef]

but yeah its a whole game and all that. they're gonna have to figure something out cuz they cant just keep adding more content and expect phone storage to keep up

might even see the day where the audio file isnt like a single 800MB monstrosity for just the BGM lol.

[lost venture]

[ruby birch]

Their apk growth curve is like exponential

But their story and content creation rate is like linear

[stoic reef]

bigger assets baby

ever since PE i think their textures are really noice

[ruby birch]

More detailed boba? Is that why?

I play at lowest graphics so maybe I don't benefit

[odd wedge]

oh large increase since they started OW story maps

[ruby birch]

Ok fine that map is ridiculous

[stoic reef]

true that too. PE and kolosten really started beefing up the stuff with the OW maps

[ruby birch]

Ok that's only 6.5 G difference

[stoic reef]

oh it shrunk

used to be around 8GB

[ruby birch]

Can the game take away my useless valks and only download when needed

Especially the ones I didn't pull

[odd wedge]

Full game size for android:
v5.0 ~12GB
v5.2 ~14GB
v5.4 ~16GB
v5.5 ~17GB
v5.7 ~18GB

[stoic reef]

not possible \

[odd wedge]

Large increase staring end of 2022

[stoic reef]

gotta be able to view them in the valks and do tutorials and stuff

[odd wedge]

I didn't do fresh reinstalls since then cuz busy

[ruby birch]

1 GB per version

From 5.0 to 5.5

[stoic reef]

yeah that tracks

[ruby birch]

I was thinking mihoyo doesn't respect their players enough

But then the truth is mihoyo doesn't need to respect players who don't have a 512 GB phone

Who aren't able to afford a 512 GB phone

sorry for the wait, it was a really long log but in this case the error log was right lol, it seems like an issue with your unityplayer.dll file. i'd recommend going to your Honkai Impact 3 sea\Games folder and delete the unityplayer.dll file (with the game and the launcher closed) and then next to launch in the launcher click the 3 lines and click repair now to redownload it

[lavish garden]

Heyy. Was wondering if there's any way to compress the last arc (32-35) cinematics a bit or have them play at a lower quality? I play Honkai on a PC without GPU (interrogated GPU, Intel HD 630) and I was comfortable playing every cinematic and the game itself up to this point on my native resolution (1600 * 900) but I can feel EVERYTHING just upgrading this last arc and I can still play fine but some of the cinematics (i.e the trailer in Ch 32 EX and Siegfried's cinematic in 34-4) are REALLY lagging. So much that I can't even watch them on the game itself and have to watch it on YT. I tried dropping my screen resolution to 1280 * 720 and it DID get better to the point where I can actually watch them but well... the game on 720p and rendering accuracy of "low" isn't exactly the best. Any solutions for this or do I have to bear with it?

[odd wedge]

Can't really do that, how much RAM you got?

[lavish garden]

8 GB

The ram is fine when I check on the task manager I think it's the GPU that's bottling it since it gets stuck on 100% usage

[odd wedge]

cuz the iGPU can take some RAM as shared VRAM

that is if you've got more RAM

an example

#🔌technical-help message

[lavish garden]

Hmm idk sounds like the RAM is chilling in my case

(This is taken while playing the cinematic)

[odd wedge]

Anyways, adding more RAM is not a viable option just for this 💀
Just thought I'd let you know

[worldly cipher]

You have 1x8 or 2x4?

[odd wedge]

1x8

[lavish garden]

1x8 bcuz I want to go 2x8

[worldly cipher]

That's why it's laggy

Dual channel isn't on yet

[lavish garden]

Can I fix it by going 2x8?

[odd wedge]

Should be good

[worldly cipher]

Apu / Igpu has a massive fps boost when dual channel is active

[odd wedge]

Did you see the link I sent?

[worldly cipher]

2x8 and a higher clock speed

[lavish garden]

Is the current 8 GB no good? 😭

[worldly cipher]

Yep

[lavish garden]

Damn

[worldly cipher]

The recommended ram now is 16gb (2x8) not just in honkai but all of em

[lavish garden]

Was thinking of just buying another 8 GB and going 2x8 but seems like I have to buy two of them now?

[worldly cipher]

Just buy another 1x8 if you have a 1 8gb on your pc

[odd wedge]

My UHD 620 can do okay with 2x8GB dual channel RAM

[worldly cipher]

The ram should be the same specs as your ram

[lavish garden]

Yeah that was what I was asking about. Can I just buy another 8 gb and add it on and be fine? Or is the current 8 GB not good enough?

[lavish garden]

Yh that's why I'm asking if it's good or not

[worldly cipher]

So let's say you have a 8gb 3200mhz ram you only need to buy another 8gb 3200mhz ram

[odd wedge]

or you could buy a better one if the price is same/not much difference

[lavish garden]

Uhd is for i5 6th gen I believe that's a lot better than i3 7th gen HD

[worldly cipher]

Brand doesn't really matter here

As long you have the same size of ram and it's clock speed

As for clock cycle ...... only applies if you really want to squeeze every fps drop

[lavish garden]

Current one I have is an 8gb 2400mhz should I change that and go like 3200mhz or is it fine to go dual channel with 2400mhz?

[worldly cipher]

If your mobo / apu supports 3200 then go for 3200mhz

If not then stick with 2400mhz

[odd wedge]

the gpu about the same I think

Yours slightly better

[lavish garden]

Will my lag be fixed with 2x8 2400mhz? That's what I want to make sure of

[worldly cipher]

The higher the mhz the better fps it gives when in dual channel

[worldly cipher]

Yes 2x8 2400mhz will fix the lag but having 2x8 3200mhz is better

[lavish garden]

Alright thank you both for your help

[odd wedge]

The price difference should be very little, get 3200 if you can

I asked my brother to buy a 2400 for me, he came back with one, and told me the shop was selling 3200 for the same price 💀

[lavish garden]

The thing is I have to buy two in that case and I can't afford that rn since I'm trying to buy a GPU too

But if I go with 2400 I only need one

Which is more affordable

[odd wedge]

you could just buy one 3200 for now, the speed will be capped at 2400 when you're using with the 2400 you already had
But in future when you can afford to get new device or upgrade, you'll only need to buy one to pair with the 3200

[lavish garden]

Hmm I can go dual channel with a 2400mhz and a 3200mhz?

[odd wedge]

Yes, it will be dual channel 2400, even when one is 3200

[lavish garden]

Right now I just want to play the last arc man Idc about upgrading stuff 😭

[odd wedge]

that is all while I assume the price for 2400 or 3200 you can find is little to none

[lavish garden]

Alright then I'll buy a 3200mhz for now that'll fix my lag too right?

[lavish garden]

Yh depends on the brand too but they're pretty much the same

[odd wedge]

cuz of my experience, wanted to die cuz I need to buy one more 3200 when I upgraded

[odd wedge]

Yeah

[lavish garden]

Alright ty so much. Now can I play Graduation Trip in HD without lag

[odd wedge]

The CG?

CGs are not affected by your video settings

[lavish garden]

The cinematic at the end of ch 35

[lavish garden]

Yeah the CGs play fine for some reason but it's the videos that lag for some reason

[odd wedge]

Yeah, the cinematic videos are called CGs

One thing about the CGs in-game

Is that the quality isn't great

[lavish garden]

Yeah I noticed 😭

Thankfully too Idk what I would've done if they were in 4k like the animated shorts in the last arc

[odd wedge]

so yeah people generally watch them off Bilibili/YouTube

It's the video file itself

The video itself is not in high resolution

They did something about it a few versions back, probably forgot about it. I did notice the quality is much better in the meow meow event (I do not know what it's called in English).

[lavish garden]

Yh the quality in the new event is fine and it doesn't lag either

Anyway how many cinematics does the last arc have?

34-35 specifically

There was one in 34-4 with Siegfried but Idk about the rest

[odd wedge]

You can find in the CG collection for an estimated amount

[lavish garden]

Ohhh true I forgot that's a thing

Ty!!

Nah not ur fault how are you supposed to know I have my overlay on 😭

But holy man I used to barely get 50 fps on low rendering accuracy and now I get 50 on mid rendering accuracy mid combat

JUST BY DISABLING THE DISCORD OVERLAY

THIS IS CRAZY

Are we supposed to receive an in-game mail or a direct mail from Hoyo CS? Because so far I haven't really received anything.

I've been checking the merch thingy on Ai Chan phone but there's nothing either

Heard the end of April is supposed be the last delivery window, which is almost here, So I was wondering how is this going to play out.

[odd wedge]

No, you won't receive email updates.

#🔌technical-help message

[odd wedge]

It's hilarious

[zealous skiff]

[hybrid flare]

Can someone explain to me exactly what I am supposed to do in the 4th pin?
I don't quite understand it.

Restarting router: combats bufferbloat and can reset your connection with your ISP

Trying different connection: likely to use a different ISP which will route your traffic differently, maybe going around a server that was causing you issue before

VPN: forces your traffic to take a different route, depending on infrastructure limitations

I've seen VPNs not work, but the problem in those cases was that there was one internet line to and from the town, so regardless of anything, all traffic went down those lines. It was unavoidable to have issues if those lines had issues

And if you really can't resolve the issue, #how-to-contact-cs

[stoic reef]

Discord overlay huh, you learn something new every day

Makes me suspect CPU bottleneck or even GPU if discord uses hardware acceleration for it's overlay

[silver urchin]

depends if you hardware acceleration turned on, I'd think

toggling that might resolve the issue too

And regarding RAM sticks not matching, ngl it's easiest to just buy a 2x8 kit and use those two sticks than bother buying a 1x8 kit and making sure it matches your current kit

Also the timings would be the same, any silicon differences won't matter since they're from the same batch

Mismatched RAM can cause weird af issues, though fairly rare

[stoic reef]

mhmm it might. and yeah it is easier but if cant afford a 2x8 kit then

[silver urchin]

It's ddr4 at most tho

That's like...$20?

ddr3 would maybe be a little more price-y since it's older and not actively manufactured the same

I haven't checked their device or anything, but if it's not ddr5 then prices aren't really high

[stoic reef]

older 2400 mhz yeah it probably is ddr4. i'd upgrade mine to ddr5 but my mobo doesnt support it i think plus i have 32gb so it would be a lot to upgrade that lol

[silver urchin]

2400mhz hmm

Sounds like ddr3

[stoic reef]

idk, 2400mhz ddr4 was very common around 5-7 years ago

[silver urchin]

That'd be fast ddr3, slow ddr4

[stoic reef]

if im remembering right

[silver urchin]

I think it was around then, it was still kinda newer. 3200 and 3600 are more common now, if not on ddr5

3600mhz ddr4 is the bleeding edge of ddr4 iirc tho

[stoic reef]

yup, nowadays its 3200 for budget and 3600 for more and it feels like an even mix of ddr4 and 5, though ddr4 is on its way out the door

[silver urchin]

Just like 2400mhz is the edge for ddr3 it looks

[silver urchin]

budget depends how much you bought

32GB is still overkill for gaming, ngl
Windows doesn't even grab it all and it's notorious for grabbing any spare ram it can

[stoic reef]

yup it is. 32gb in my opinion is just furture proofing your pc so you dont have to worry about it ever for like the next 5-10 years

[silver urchin]

I'm kinda excited for those 12GB DIMMs, gonna be interesting to see recommended RAM go from 16GB to 24GB before it finally hops up to 32GB lol

[stoic reef]

oh yeah those are pretty exciting cuz its just means its the start of a gradual industry increase. might free up enough of the 8GB market to even see the super cheap notebooks at walmart finally having more than 4GB of ram on a windows 10 lol

[silver urchin]

Just enough to work as a floor model, but not enough when you finally get home and put Office on it

[hollow crater]

uh, what this popup? I was on coop when it popped up. Says it's called BH3.

I just downloaded HI3 on my computer today.

[silver urchin]

BH3.exe is the game's executable file

[hollow crater]

Ah, so I should just allow access?

[silver urchin]

Yeah, it kinda needs network stuff to work properly

[hollow crater]

Oh, okay. Was kinda worried when WDF thought some unknown Honkai thing was suspicious. Thanks. 👍

[stoic reef]

tbh that isnt even WDF thinking its suspicious. it does that for a lot of non browser programs if it isnt already aware that it needs network access. i had to do the same thing for discord when i reinstalled it recently

[strong thistle]

[strong thistle]

DDR2 = 400 , 533 , 800 and 1066
DDR3 = 1066 , 1333 , 1600 , 1866 , 2133 and 2400
DDR4 = 2133 , 2400 , 2666 , 2933 , 3200 , 3600 , 3733 (LPDDR4 only) , 4266
DDR5 = 4800 , 5200 , 5600 , 6000 and 7200 (7200 for LPDDR5X)

[real ore]

Halp

[stoic reef]

try restarting your pc

[real ore]

If already did, whats the next step?

[stoic reef]

im assuming you're doing the regular pc client? not an emulator or anything?

[real ore]

Yup

[stoic reef]

then check for windows updates (manually click check for updates a few times if it says nothing is available) and restart your pc again, also make sure to run the updates before restarting lol

also do you have an antivirus on your computer? like avast or anything?

[real ore]

I have no antivirus beside of the Windows Defender

[stoic reef]

ok just checking

[real ore]

Ok!

[stoic reef]

yeah usually this error isnt caused by whatever game it is (happens to a lot of different unity games) and seems to usually be windows updates or antivirus but if not then i'll go back to looking for other stuff to try lol

[real ore]

Well, got bad news, it didnt work neither...

[stoic reef]

i see, from looking around its either an issue with your ram then or the game since its not an antivirus or windows update issue. since the game is a much much much easier thing to check for can you try uninstalling the game and then reinstalling the launcher/game?

hopefully just a broke install

if for some reason that even reinstalling it doesnt fix it then heres a nice long list of stuff to check on https://pupuweb.com/solved-fix-getthreadcontext-failed-fatal-error-gc/

[stoic reef]

im assuming you dont have FACEIT anti-cheat installed from something or other since if you did that would affect most unity games but i guess i should have asked earlier

[real ore]

I dont have a FACEIT ac, neither know which games use it (if a game uses it)

[stoic reef]

yeah idk which games use it but if its in your list of programs to uninstall then getting rid of that fixes this. but hopefully one of these things will work

[real ore]

Agree

[silver urchin]

Hi im looking for a recommended android emulator for HI3. I am aware that there is an official PC client but it currently doesnt support mouse control and I do not have a controller. Any help appreciated

[stoic reef]

emulator would be a little jank with mouse control and keep in mind that honkai is a very demanding game so even the best emulators have performance issues compared to pc client but from what i've heard, mumu is the best performance wise

[silver urchin]

thank you for your advice 🙏

[stoic reef]

i personally recommend getting used to the keyboard layout tbh. mouse doesnt translate well to the control scheme since apart from moving and camera control which your left hand would occupy, you have i think 7 other buttons to hit at any given time and most mice dont have that many buttons on them so your right hand would be constantly moving from your mouse to your numpad or wherever the other buttons are set

you can use the m ouse to menu and click on the on screen buttons on pc client but im assuming you're talking about using it to attack and dodge which is fine but theres 5 other things to do during battle that your non movement hand needs to do

but its all up to you , mumu is the best performing emulator and all that

[silver urchin]

I tried that before but I find it inconvenient for my sweaty palm always on the kayboard lol

[stoic reef]

i gotcha, i hope the emulator works out ok for ya then! just dont use bluestacks if you dont like mumu, it doesnt run the game anymore

[silver urchin]

I also tried bluestacks just today and I gotta say it did not perform well

I chucked in alot of ram in that and it still underperforms

[stoic reef]

yeah bluestacks either gives an official game version error and wont run at all, or is severely bad at running it. it was probably the CPU cores or not giving it a dedicated GPU being the issue

[real ore]

It worked, thanks (Firewall and i had to download the not all settings in download options)

[stoic reef]

oh nice! rude firewall lol but glad you can get in now :3

[fathom ridge]

so I played honkai before on a phone and reached level 20 (logged in with my hoyo account)
its showing in hoyolab that this acc was made in America server

now i installed on my pc and i can't login into the same account
which server is this acc i have no idea

i want my lv20 account back

[stoic reef]

the one in hoyolab that showed the account was made in america server, is it the lvl 20 one you want?

[fathom ridge]

yes

[stoic reef]

and on pc, is it set to the americas server or is there no server select option in the upper right of the login screen?

[fathom ridge]

no server select option

[stoic reef]

then you downloaded the SEA client which only has teh SEA server, please uninstall that and install the global client which has europe/americas servers on it.

link to the global client: https://api-os-takumi.mihoyo.com/event/download_porter/link/bh3_os/pcglobal/default

[fathom ridge]

so it's just the client issue, and I won't have to download the 15gb+11gb once again right

[stoic reef]

you will have to redownload everything, though the collapse launcher (link in the first pin) has the ability to convert your existing SEA client to a global client and just download the differences so it would be less than a full redownload

[fathom ridge]

so right now
i gotta download the client u provided above
delete my existing sea client
redirect the clients files to the one which are already downloaded

[stoic reef]

no not quite.

if you dont want to redownload everything then just install the collapse launcher from this link https://github.com/neon-nyan/CollapseLauncher/releases

install that and start it up and it has an option to change your game client

if you want to keep everything official then you will need to uninstall honkai completely, launcher and everything (uninstall, dont delete) and then reinstall everything from scratch with the first link i sent you.

[fathom ridge]

i don't want to reinstall the 11+15gb so the collapse launcher is my best option

[thick python]

Uhm, conversion file for 6.5 update is not available for now

[stoic reef]

oh mb

[fathom ridge]

@luna this is it right, global one

[thick python]

But if you want me to make it, I think you can wait for me. It takes time so if you have no other choice, I prefer you to reinstall

[stoic reef]

yes, though my bad for misleading you, client conversion for 6.5 isnt available yet in collapse so it'll have to reinstall, which is the normal method

[thick python]

No worries, it's just me having no time for making it for now

[stoic reef]

its okie i know you're busy

[thick python]

But If you want to wait, then I will make one for you guys since it's Eid Holidays and I have more time

[fathom ridge]

can i ask u something neon-nyan (not related to honkai)

[thick python]

Yep, what is it?

[fathom ridge]

do u speak hindi/urdu? just curious

[thick python]

Nope, I'm an Indonesian

[fathom ridge]

oo, i see

[thick python]

[obsidian quarry]

i dont understand

im haeving stronk

swapped to a new email now to see if that fixes it

IT FUCKING WORKED

[odd wedge]

You were just logging in to wrong account, there's nothing wrong

[surreal swallow]

anyone knows why when i start genshin a blue screen appears ?

[honest prairie]

how do i login to google account in honkai impact?

i download from steam

[odd wedge]

Steam client uses your Steam ID directly, no cross-save.

[honest prairie]

damn time to download hk again

[odd wedge]

also steam only glb client

You will need to install the game either from:

• Official website (links in pins)
• Google Play Store (#🔌technical-help message)
• Epic Games Store (GLB only)

[strong thistle]

@odd wedge

[odd wedge]

As you said Google account:
If you meant as in the marked icon in screenshot, and the HoYoverse account is not linked to email and password:
Login on https://account.hoyoverse.com/ via Google account, and link account before you login on PC.

[odd wedge]

what the bluescreen say?

[silver urchin]

how do i uninstall

[odd wedge]

You can run uninstall.exe in your HI3 folder, or just uninstall it like any other program in Control Panel.

[silver urchin]

i had two version of the game and the one i had to unistall wasn't showing up in the control panel

i just deleted the whole folder

[odd wedge]

works

[wise radish]

Is there any way to find my old honkai impact account username without playing for a long time on my hoyoverse account?

[ebon rain]

Why does Asia not appear for me

[cosmic lion]

Wdym? You want to play on sea servers?
If that is the case on PC and Android you only need to download the SEA client, on iOS you need a SEA apple account

[cosmic lion]

Are you trying to link your old account to hyv? Tbh only you can know the username (≠ nickname, aka in-game name) and CS can help to show a censored ver. of it, but you need to know your UID

And on the 5th pin 📌 is a complete guide of the link process if you need it

[wise radish]

yes, I unfortunately don't know my UID so I guess all hope is lost but i'll try your suggestion

[cosmic lion]

You can try using the email on the account retrieval and check
and most of the users that don't remember most of the time use a 3rd party login (Google account/Facebook/AppleID) but this last one only show on mobile

Keep in mind you need to do that on the account retrieval option

Still you better read the guide that Luna made on the pin I mentioned before, it's really complete

[wise radish]

Alright, i'll try that thank you!

[shut depot]

anyone else have NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID for https://honkaiimpact3.hoyoverse.com/ right now?

[odd wedge]

no, website is fine.

[hasty socket]

Is there any way to disable the black bar thing at the bottom of the screen?

This thing

That "I" doesn't do anything, it seems

[odd wedge]

Ai-phone > Settings

I believe it's Show Tips(?)

idk i'm not going to switch languages for this, need to restart game zzz

[hasty socket]

I just tried it, it seems to be gone, I'll have to enter into cutscene again to see

[hasty socket]

Yup, its gone, thanks

[stoic reef]

Oh I hate that error, I get it all the time at work when people travel overseas. Half the time they need to fix their time and date settings

And yup it's called show tips on English

[odd wedge]

never seen that before

[stoic reef]

yeah theres a dozen reasons for it but the most common is their computers time doesnt match the cert

[pale stag]

game crashes every few minutes
picture freezes but i can still hear sound and move character
temperature seems fine
any help?

[stoic reef]

can you try restarting your computer and if it still crashes can you put your output log here too?

1.Press Windows Key + R in your keyboard
2.type %userprofile%\Appdata\LocalLow\miHoYo
3.Send the output_log.txt here

[pale stag]

already tried restarting has been like this for a week

[stoic reef]

i see, while i look through that what is your graphics settings preset set to?

but after a short look through that output log, it seems like some of the shaders are breaking in the directx. are your graphic drivers up to date?

[pale stag]

graphic drivers are all up to date and settings are as low as possible

[stoic reef]

let me look around because your output log is full of these errors "ERROR: Shader Shader is not supported on this GPU (none of subshaders/fallbacks are suitable)"

just as a curiosity, have you tried reinstalling the game yet?

and is it crashing for all parts of the game or just the new nagazora area?

[pale stag]

i did try reinstalling
crashes appear everywhere even in main menu sometimes
other games started crashing as well like League of Legends
Genshin can't even last more than a minute

[stoic reef]

i see, so not just related to honkai

the issue is with your d3dll.dll file

have you checked for windows updates?

[pale stag]

yep is up to date

[stoic reef]

ok then to fix your d3dll.dll file please run a command prompt as administrator (click on start menu > type cmd > right click command prompt and go to more > run as administrator) and type sfc /scannow

that should hopefully repair/redownload the d3dll.dll file in your windows

[pale stag]

actually already did that too :/

[stoic reef]

and if that doesnt work then assuming your drivers for your 1060 are up to date with the april 18th driver, try rolling that back to a previous version

and if that doesnt work or if you've already tried it then try the stuff on this list, it should be faster than me suggesting things you've already tried https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-fix-d3d11-dll-not-found-or-missing-errors-2623232

[pale stag]

will do thanks a lot!

[stoic reef]

np and good luck!

[pale stag]

may i pm you in the future if i don't manage to fix it?

[stoic reef]

um sure you can though i cant gurantee i'll be able to fix it if that list doesn't work. though that list should get it fixed even if it comes down to reinstalling windows (i had to do that last week for a driver issue tbh)

[pale stag]

appreciate it ❤️

[cosmic lion]

Just in case... check your antivirus, a user said before that his AV was checking the game while running (Real time protection) making some files inaccessible for the game and with that making the game crash

[wispy fable]

for some reason, when I try to start an ER run, the elysia signet choice doesn't show up. My run just gets softlocked.

[cosmic lion]

most probably its just a connection issue, check the 4th pin 📌 for some ways to fix/bypass connection problems

[shut depot]

does honkai ever delete old accounts? i stopped playing during the glb 3rd anniversary patch. now i login and i started fresh.

[stoic reef]

no, accounts are never deleted ever. you either are on the wrong server, logged into the wrong hoyoverse account, or considering you havent played in years you might have never linked your old mihoyo account to the new hoyoverse account system

[wispy fable]

alright, I'll try a vpn. But if it were a network issue, why would it only affect ER?

[shut depot]

that's probably why. hoyoverse wasn't a thing back then

[stoic reef]

try the guides in this PIN to help https://discordapp.com/channels/418652140454674432/427673685026013184/1008290691224445000

but you'll need a new hoyoverse account and to do account retreival

[stoic reef]

could be a spotty connection so it comes and goes. the game could have also just bugged out. if you havent tried restarting yet can try that too

[wispy fable]

don't think it's an unstable connection, I'm connected to ethernet w/ 400/300 download/upload

and again, other content works just fine

[cosmic lion]

ER "save online" at the end of every stage and the first one don't have a fight so it just "end"
so if the connection have any problem then can take minutes to load or even kick you out on some cases
and doesn't matter the speed, if you internet have problem to reach the server because of the ISP routing then its going to fail the connection

[stoic reef]

unless your router is connected directly to honkai servers with a cable then the fact you're on ethernet with a good upload and download speed doesnt really mean anything. theres a long list of data centers that your connection goes through to get to honkai servers

[wispy fable]

ah ok

[stoic reef]

but like i said, game could be bugging and a restart would fix that but if not, then yeah its a spotty connection to honkai servers which can effect ER "saving" like iho said

[cosmic lion]

@stoic reef

[stoic reef]

[solid kelp]

Hey, has anyone tried using the ps5 dualsense edge with the iOS version of hi3? I'm trying to set it up but there's no cursor or anything like that to help me use the menu's and I kinda wanted to just use the controller without having to interact with the screen at all. If anyone could perhaps advise on this I would appreciate it

Controller works fine on PC obviously but I'd rather play it on the iPad due to the pc being pretty ass

[strong thistle]

@stoic reef @cosmic lion

[solid kelp]

The game registers the controller as there and such as I can use it to back out of the app but yeah, no cursor or anything. I can also do combat just fine etc

[strong thistle]

i just checked , there is no cursor functionality for IOS
you can only use the controller in the Combat

[solid kelp]

That's pretty unfortunate

[stoic reef]

[solid kelp]

Hopefully it's something they'll think about adding in the future. Thank you for replying

[stoic reef]

yeah mobile devices dont have the concept of a cursor since they're touchscreen so unless an app manually develops all the code to make a cursor and then make it work it wont have it

as far as im aware no mobile apps have a cursor including honkai

[stoic reef]

oh i forgot to say, i assumed this wasnt the case since it was many games (probably any using d3dll) i assumed it was a corrupted .dll but i could be wrong

[cosmic lion]

tbh most programs don't detect honkai as a game, so sound like its possible that some av would think is a malicious program

i have before in other games my av block their anticheat for example... but with hyv game no in my case

[stoic reef]

true, if it was just honkai thats probably the case but they mentioned it happening to most of their games including league of legends and stuff too. i'd worry if my AV thought every game was a malicious program

[cosmic lion]

better that way, so you know that nothing can enter your files... even you(?

[strong thistle]

d3d11.dll its the Direct3D 11 dll files , i think they should run the sfc /scannow command , since its a windows files

[stoic reef]

they already did that

[strong thistle]

what is the scan results ?

[stoic reef]

they didnt say actually. its supposed to auto repair corrupted files though right?

[strong thistle]

how about the DISM Command ?

[stoic reef]

they did not try that, and now that i double check, its not in the list of stuff to try in the link i sent them

[strong thistle]

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

[stoic reef]

btw if you havent gotten it fixed yet or gotten to the point of reinstalling your windows in that link i sent you you can try the DISM command by running command prompt as admin and try the commands delta sent just above this message

[stoic reef]

thanks, i was refreshing my memory on the command arguments

[arctic tundra]

hi if i reinstall the game will the game size be smaller its like 25gb for me rn

[stoic reef]

on pc or mobile?

[arctic tundra]

mobile

[stoic reef]

yes, but only if you select the minimal assets install option

which will ask you to download resources as needed when you go to enter a stage

[arctic tundra]

o ok i see

do u know if thats teh same with genshin

[stoic reef]

i dont know tbh. i only play honkai. i can try to double check real quick

[arctic tundra]

its alright thanks very much 👍🏿

[cosmic lion]

genshin is 25gb with eng va lang on fresh install

[arctic tundra]

trying to make room for star rail lol

[stoic reef]

yeah just checked, it doesnt appear to have a minimal asset download option but maybe i just didnt see it

[cosmic lion]

honkai 3rd is like 18gb basic assets
honkai star was ~15gb on beta... so probably can double or be the same as genshin

[arctic tundra]

okay thanks guys

[cosmic lion]

on genshin is just full download, the only thing that you can change the size is the voice lang,
where the size of each lang files are: ~4gb JP EN and ~3gb KR CN

[stoic reef]

ah i see, thanks for the info!

[cosmic lion]

still the game will download by default the eng voices on most countries, so if you you want jp voices on mobile you need a additional 8gb(for the unzip process) and after that you can uninstall the en files
i think on pc should be now double the size of every file

[stoic reef]

oof thats a lot

[cosmic lion]

the worst thing... you cant even replay story there so most space is wasted for end game players

ok i stop or slothy is going to be mad at me

[stoic reef]

true, open world games are like that though. with how "freeform" they are you end up needing to have all the space for everything at once and its a lot

i mean slothy's tired of the game sizes too

i'll defend the reasoning of why its probably too much work to re-organize the whole thing just to shrink game size but it is getting a little out of hand

[cosmic lion]

~~i think "nintendo" (tbh is other company) should share the compression config/file/etc. they use on smash ultimate... +900 songs and the game i think still is just 20gb ~~

[stoic reef]

yeah bandai is pretty proud of that tbh
