[manic mural]

going to mess around with amprex build to be able to do SP better, current build:

[pale basin]

should be fine

[manic mural]

its not doing as much damage as I'd like

and well my rhino build is bad so I die pretty quickly and run out of energy a lot

going to put one more forma on

[pale basin]

ye you need the iron charge mod that i use since you get more armor for your iron skin

[manic mural]

I've decided to put one more forma on amprex

well

actually

I just need hammer shot

[manic mural]

and yea I have that mod, I just need to find a exhilus warframe adapter so I can have power drift on too

gonna grind nightmare missions for a bit for hammer shot

[manic mural]

@pale basin Updated build, it does SO MUCH BETTER in SP against acolytes, the previous build, for some reason, viral just didn't proc on them, so was kinda useless and didn't do much damage, but this build can actually do damage to acolyte, and allowed me to solo acolyte

[pale basin]

because of armor

you need to strip armor if you use viral

[hushed frigate]

Anyone else having issues with Forza Horizon 5 crashing? Game keeps crashing as soon as I get in sight of the finish line in the intro?

[pale basin]

game has crashed a few times for me but not that early in the game

[hushed frigate]

yeah its the only title im having any issues with so im stumped at the moment was hoping it was a early bug

[chrome sierra]

i murderd a cchad

that guy was running a slick, altyn, reapir and meta mdr with 5 mags of m62

and i had just killed killa and had 5 propanes in my bag that was dropped a water filter and a few tubes as well as a tetris

like bro

[pale basin]

@manic mural this is why the helminth is good to have

[split dew]

any good games rn like in 50under?

[manic mural]

so much strength

[manic mural]

depends on what you like

[pale basin]

my normal health

my health when i put my mote down

[manic mural]

what about speed mote

[split dew]

open world with a good story line

other than rdr2

[pale basin]

this is the normal fire rate for this gun

and with the speed mote

LMAO

i spent 20 plat for another catalyst and it was worth it just to do this

normal fire rate ^

with the haste mote

i used up the entire magazine in the same amount of time it took to shoot a few bullets in the first clip xD

[pale basin]

i made it ever so slightly faster

i really wish i had the resources to make it faster

i need a riven mod and a warframe mod but the warframe mod i want costs a lot. cheapest on the warframe market is like 47p

[manic mural]

where's your dual grakata

and put some fire rate mods on a dual grakata

[pale basin]

think the twin grakatas have the same fire rate as the normal one

[manic mural]

technically yes but twice the bullets so twice the fire rate >:P

I just want to see it burn through like 200 bullets in no time

[signal iris]

Y'all ever just play a game good enough to make you sad afterwards?

I just 100% a game and it took me like 11 hours and it was amazing and first time I've genuinely been happy in a while

I hit the random button in gamepass and it recommended a game called touhou lana nights and omg was that a good game

I really enjoyed it

I legit didn't stop playing from start to finish

Would highly recommend if you have gamepass. Around 7 hours to beat the game, around 10 to 100%

Very entertaining "Castlevania lite" game

It's good enough that I bought it for my switch the moment I finished it on PC

[full wing]

the walking dead season 1 and 2

(i mean the game)

[sour wind]

is it possible for someone to stream even at 720 30 with 2.5 upload?

[celest ibex]

Yes, easily

You can stream 1080p 60 at 6Mbps on Twitch
So 720p 30 shouldn't be an issue at 2.5

[sour wind]

what would be an estimate appropriate bitrate though?

[timid swan]

Assuming 24 bits per pixel, 24x1280x720x30 = 663,552,000, or 0.6 Mb/s

[timid swan]

720p@30fps should in theory take 0.6 Mb/s, or 60 fps 1.2 Mb/s, but in reality 30 fps seems to take 2.5-4 Mb/s

[sly bane]

The only game to do that was Jalopy for me

[vivid shale]

For me it was Horizon Zero Dawn and Titanfall 2 titanfall 2 confused me with making me cry lmao

[signal iris]

Horizon zero dawn was just mmmm

[vivid shale]

Its amazing

[vivid shale]

I cant wait for Forbidden West

[lapis oar]

this occurs whenever I try to start Halo Infinite

[spare folio]

Type dxdiag in search

And click first resulr

@lapis oar

[lapis oar]

I'm looking at forums that are saying older cards aren't being supported with halo infinite

and this is a 2016 Nvidia quadro

[timid swan]

Wait, you're trying to game on a quadro? No wonder it's not working. Halo is still in beta and it's probably not in the hardware list yet, if it ever will be.

[daring valve]

Gaming on a quadro

[lapis oar]

lol, I had a very tight budget for this laptop

my choices were either used business devices with dedicated graphics or new cheap laptops with integrated graphics

I chose the used route

[daring valve]

Understandable

[lapis oar]

but yeah, it hurts to play warzone on 30fps at 720p

[daring valve]

But dont expect much gaming performance from the poor little qaudro

Thats because its cores were more made for business and rendering work since it doesnt really have the same cuda cores as a geforce card sadly

[lapis oar]

I'm fully aware of that, I can't wait to get a decent desktop for gaming

[daring valve]

I bet

[lapis oar]

will be like 100 times the gaming performance

slightly exagerated

[daring valve]

Ik when they fix the big.little architecture for gaming then ill slap my way to 12700k so i have a better cpu to pair with my gpu

[lapis oar]

I'm hoping for the 12600k, amazing performance for the budget, i7 is kinda in a weird place between budget and the best there is

[daring valve]

Yeah but i do a lot of rendering as well so the extra cores will help a lot

[timid swan]

12400 is looking good too. It's all p-cores

[lapis oar]

12400 will probably be the gaming king

[daring valve]

12400 not running big.little?

[lapis oar]

nope, just 6 cores

[timid swan]

There was an accidentally released French review that was looking VERY good

[daring valve]

Hmm im glad i choose intel as budget friendly performer

[timid swan]

With it all being p-cores it'll get along with win10 scheduler too probably, and not trip the anti cheats

[daring valve]

Yeah but i dont think its the anti cheats but more rather the anti piracy

[timid swan]

Denuvo specifically is the biggest issue, it's a little of both

[daring valve]

I can understand with the quick switch of hwid

[pale basin]

@manic mural save up some plat or farm aya for some of the primes since theyre being unvaulted and the market is going to be flooded and prices are gonna drop

[manic mural]

@pale basin yea I got some plat and starting to get a few aya

Starting off I'm just looking for soma prime

[pale basin]

try and get nova or mag prime instead

[manic mural]

Hm

[pale basin]

even when soma prime goes back into the vault, its still relatively cheap

mag and nova on the other hand, no so cheap

mag prime before the prices started dropping was around the 250~300plat mark

[manic mural]

Hm okay

I was leaning towards getting nova prime, or should I try and get both?

When does this week of prime resurgence last until?

[pale basin]

try and get both, but if you can only get one then get the one that would be best for you and your play style

and it lasts till the 23rd

every tuesday is the reset and will rotate warframes

[manic mural]

Hm

[pale basin]

i assume you have limited play time, the biggest frames imo that would be good to get would be mag/nova/mesa/nekros/saryn

[manic mural]

I'm thinking Nova (for this week), but main ones being nekros for farming, saryn for damage, and I believe it was nidus that can become very tanky

[manic mural]

What about weapons?

I just really wanted a nice assault rifle/lmg so I wanted soma prime

[pale basin]

nidus is still new so itd be best to go for the unvaulted stuff first. as far as weapons go, i dont remember all the weapons that came with each pack so id have to look them up other than whats on their poster pics

[manic mural]

maybe galatine prime, reaper prime, boltor prime

that's the only ones that caught my eye

There's a list on the wiki

[pale basin]

soma, pyrana, dual kamas, venka, nikana, glaive, reaper

pretty much the only good weapons that are being unvaulted

vectis prime too kinda but you have to seriously commit to vectis if youre gonna use it otherwise its not worth it

also ye sadge that the list i just made is pretty much only melee's, lol but most of the good primary/secondaries in the game are kuva/sister weapons or stuff you can already make

[manic mural]

I already have vectis prime lol

bolter prime any good?

[pale basin]

not really

[manic mural]

hm

I really dislike how glaives work in warframe so I'll prob skip that, but I'll look at the rest

[pale basin]

_>

farm it for plat at least

glaive prime is probably the most expensive prime item there is

1 blade is like 160~200 plat

[manic mural]

hm

What about galatine prime?

Galatine supposed to be good

[pale basin]

its alright id say. biggest downfall of those types of weapons is the really slow attack speed. obv theres attack speed mods but you have to give up a mod slot(s) for attack speed

also dont remember if i told you this before, but just to make farming a bit easier for yourself when opening relics, share relics instead of doing random lobbies

[manic mural]

sharing relics scary

[manic mural]

random lobbies are fun >:P

[worthy jungle]

so im getting the quest 2 for hannukah, any tips for it?

any game suggestions?

[pale basin]

beat saber obv. pavlock also good

[pale basin]

@manic mural reason why i recommend mag

[pale basin]

saving up a bit so i can get some more frames that i need and want

[manic mural]

Hm

[onyx grove]

ahaha

not only carried the ball for a minute

but got nearly twice the number of kills as the next dude

new halo pog

[pale basin]

@manic mural i was doing some tests with Wisp and ended up breaking the game a bit

also baro is here this weekened

main mods to go for would be primed flow and then the corpus mods

[manic mural]

Bruh

[manic mural]

Ooo primed flow should be nice

Btw, I think I'm going to try and grind for rime rounds, primed cryo rounds just isn't that useful for every build

Learning to do the lua spy now, I can somewhat do it with volt, but I hope to be able to get limbo so it's easier

[pale basin]

ye the 60/60 mods are nice to have for versatility

also i somehow managed to spend 3k ducats

[manic mural]

I managed to only have like 300 ducats

I just need to grind void fissures lol

[pale basin]

sold off some more prime parts and made 1,115 ducats

[manic mural]

Nice

@pale basin supra vandal any good?

[pale basin]

not really

kinda just one of those weapons where it can be decent but its more of a meme machine

gotta put some forma into it for it to be decent

[urban sonnet]

I want to buy H150i cooler, but I want to ask first does it fit to MSI Z690 motherboard ?!

[spare folio]

Buy an arctic freezer ii

Or lian li galahad

Or ek aio

[clear hamlet]

Alrighty, I’m back lol. Bit of a long term review of a few months with the new platform

[raw niche]

GM 2 Ton Specialist | DaveBeee#7165 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[clear hamlet]

I’m enjoying it, it runs loud when under load, and uh, only like 3 instances of overheating I think

Hoping a new P500 Phanteks and Noctua CPU cooler will do the trick

[faint cypress]

If anyone here plays World of Tanks, I'm going to be playing a sheriff's account this weekend for the WoT turkey shoot. Schedule in link: https://worldoftanks.com/en/news/general-news/turkey-shoot-1121/

[candid cradle]

Has anyone used nucleuscoop before. Thinking about using it for MHW and the borderlands. Sounds like its a safe program
Was just looking on second opinions on it and its ease of use.

[timid swan]

OOF
Jay never really comments on games except the really bad ones like cp2077, so you know this is bad

[manic mural]

@pale basin new tileset? Spy in sortie

[pale basin]

not new, just comes up time to time

its mainly the sorties it comes up in but it can show up in the normal spy missions as well

[manic mural]

@pale basin we went and killed prodman

[pale basin]

jeez. did you at least have a credit booster?

[manic mural]

no :(

[pale basin]

rip

still a good amount of credits though

[manic mural]

@pale basin I killed prodman by accident though

didn't even notice

[full wing]

Question just got battlefield 2042

preordered on steam

but its asking for a key in origin

which i have not recieved

any help?

[celest ibex]

Did you launch through Steam first?

It needs to run an Origin setup

[full wing]

i require help it does this as soon as i get into the game

modded btw

[manic mural]

German bias

[manic mural]

Were you banned from the server..?

[lapis oar]

So if I get the pc game pass for like a single month, will I loose access to games I got for free with the game pass once my subscription ends?

[pale basin]

yes you lose access to those games until you get game pass again

[lapis oar]

such a shame

guess I'll have to dish out actual money to keep game pass

I was hoping I could get a month of gamepass free through microsoft rewards and then just keep all my games

[pale basin]

thats how a subscription works? you pay in order to use a service that is provided

if you got to the keep the games theyd literally make $0 money

same with spotify

[lapis oar]

still a shame

[pale basin]

spotify would go bankrupt

literally any service would go bankrupt

and its not even that bad

just wait for gamepass to go on sale again. it goes on sale quiet frequently for like $1 or $3

sometimes they do stuff like $1 for 3 months and stuff

giving out free games like that would be such a terrible business model

[calm reef]

Spotify is already struggling lol

[desert hazel]

[cold owl]

Yo what's up

[manic mural]

@pale basin why does the MR14 test say "this is your hardest test yet" when the MR10 test exists and its as simple as killing some lvl17 enemies

It's just kinda sad

[true compass]

Ok so i need tips, im goint to experiment with photogrammetry to scan myself into vr chat, im already getting a green screen and have a dslr and im gonna use meshroom. Is there anything that i must know that you guys could put me in the right direction

[pale basin]

it be like that. some tests are actually hard and some arent. going from mr30 to legel 1 is the actual hardest test in the game for mr rankings

[manic mural]

Legendary test is simple at least

[pale basin]

ehh... simple when said but hard considering quite a few people struggled with it

[manic mural]

I mean the mechanics are simple

I hate the stealth test

[pale basin]

stealth tests are easy because loki and ash

or be a giga chad like me and use wisp who is passively invisible

[manic mural]

can't you also do octavia?

metronome and spam crouch

[pale basin]

ye but you run the risk of killing enemies or attracting attention because of it

wait nvm, its her third that does the buffs

can also do ivara but its a bit more tricky with ivara since its little bubbles to go invis instead of just being invis

or drain all your energy to stay invis

[manic mural]

@calm reef ending of this song is evil, I thought that spinner was the end of the song >:(

Also, those circles being numbered 1, 2, 1, 2 is evil

[daring valve]

Might be vrchat but i honestly care less about the negative opinions but a random lad and i do handstands having a great time

[calm reef]

haha nice

i see you getting bettter

[manic mural]

Only barely, I still get overwhelmed often in these songs

[vivid shale]

so my skyrim didnt install with the .exe file any idea how to fix that?

without reinstalling again

i did a reinstall and it just didnt add the exe

oh its back now nvm

oh nvm it was the complete wrong directory

[warm belfry]

put ez on and try some harder maps

[manic mural]

ez being on is somehow making them harder, bigger circles means they stack more and I get more confused lol

[warm belfry]

yeah that's the funny part

badeu has some fun to watch ez stuff https://youtu.be/s1sBb7YATzY

[manic mural]

bruh

what

how do you even

[manic mural]

This is same map, I played with ez off and then ez on

[warm belfry]

ez is pretty hard to learn

i had to go down to playing 2* maps to learn it a little when i can fc 4.5+* maps, still struggle with 3* ez lol

[manic mural]

I can't fc anything above like 2* maps lol

[warm belfry]

what's ur name

[manic mural]

NotMr1111

I prob have trash stats

[warm belfry]

i mean ur still rank 1.7bil lol ur not going to be remotely good even if you're the next top #1 player

just keep playing maps, here's my stats i used to be worse than u less than a year ago https://osu.ppy.sh/users/16645425

[manic mural]

neat

[daring valve]

got minecraft and a high res texture with shaders to work in vr

[manic mural]

oh that's fun, FC

neat shader

[pale basin]

we gamin

[primal summit]

what games should i get

[timid swan]

New halo? It's free multiplayer

[manic mural]

@calm reef I failed on the literal last note of this song >:(

[manic mural]

?

[calm reef]

damn

one of the worst feelings

[vagrant widget]

I bet your gpu is burning hot rn

I mean, you have a 3090 that will handle it

But what’s your temps under vr gaming with shaders?

[daring valve]

68C

[daring valve]

My thermals are monitored all the time and my airflow pattern helps as well as fan curve

I also did a repad again and reapplied thermal paste to ensure proper cooling

[pale basin]

@manic mural if you havent already, redeem DISCORD100K in warframe for a 3 day affinity booster

[manic mural]

o have not yet

[pale basin]

rip, ive leveled up all my weapons that i had already

need more weapons to level up

[dreamy stag]

Y’all stop it

Stop targeting me

Dumb cat you know you are just trying to get me in trouble

[pale basin]

you in the wrong chat spork

[dreamy stag]

@pale basin thanks

[pale basin]

last zaw and ill have all the zaws and kitguns leveled up

[pallid plover]

is it posible to connect my oculus quest 2 to my laptop without usb 3.0 or usb c becuse i don't have those ports and this is a gaming laptop and is vr certified. but it can barely run minecraft at 60 fps

[worthy jungle]

What's the specs. And if I had to guess you probably have vsync on on minecraft

[pallid plover]

Gtx 1650, ryzen 5 4th gen I think but v sync is off and I get 30 fps

Laptop btw

[pale basin]

what about ram?

[worthy jungle]

Yeah that isn't right. Sure you don't have fps capped?

[spare folio]

Vr certified is marketing gimmick btw

[pallid plover]

8gb 2666

[pallid plover]

It’s set as 60 but I get 30

[manic mural]

Pretty bad ram, but 1650 isn't exactly the best at vr either, although Minecraft should be light

[daring valve]

Also a 1650 will not run oculus link

Needs to be a 1650 super at the minimum

[manic mural]

@pale basin Got a riven for my amprex, I think I have a decent enough roll, thoughts?

[full wing]

the critical chance boost definitely makes it at least decent

and theres no drawbacks to it

so i'd say it's a good riven, but not like one of those OP crazy ones obviously lol

[manic mural]

Yea it has decent crit chance and has 2 faction specific damage buffs

but well, wonder if I should try to roll for a riven that gives crit chance and crit multiplier

[pale basin]

its alright. id say try and go for crit damage instead and maybe try and pray for a negative of some sort. faction damage is kinda useless on a riven since theres already bane mods

also i did a 2.5hr sp survival last night/this morning

sadly didnt have a resource booster but still a good run

[manic mural]

21457 melee kills

go get sleep

[pale basin]

i spent 75 steel essence on kuva, spent the kuva to reroll my rivens and got absolutely nothing good

time to do another 2.5hr steel path survival for more steel essence

[pale basin]

its great when the smeeta buff procs so this happens

1.5hr survival this time instead of 2.5hr but still got a good amount of steel essence from this run

also got some affinity for my naramon school

[manic mural]

...

Too much time on your hands

[manic mural]

@pale basin the most I do is 30min, 5k endo is neat

[ivory sage]

[full wing]

How do I make these graphics better? This is awful! Definately not how it looked when I played it on PS4. I can tell you my PC parts if you need them.

I noticed the graphics during the scenes were changing on the fly but it still looked terrible. Is that A.I rendering at work?

Graphics card

Motherboard

And AMD Ryzen 9 I believe its the 12 core

I'm playing on a 42 inch 4K TV from Samsung. I didn't want a gaming monitor. I'm not the gaming PC elitist type.

as for resolution. oh wait! I just noticed HDR is off. Does that need to be on?

When I upgraded from console gaming to PC gaming. I still wanted to feel like I was gaming on a console, even though I knew this was a PC. Personally I felt like having a monitor made you feel like doing desk work. Having a nice big screen TV puts you in the gaming mood. You can also do gaming stuff and desk work on a TV. It's just a preference.

So now that you know my parts what is the best setting to change the graphics settings too so that I can get it to look like the experience I had on PS4? I honestly thought going in first time on PC it was going to look twice as better then PS4. As most games did.

[timid swan]

A 2060 at 4k

[full wing]

It says on the box it that it can handle 4K, HDR and VR gaming. I ran it by several PC gaming experts they all said I should get that graphics card. And the AMD Ryzen 9 processor was designed to work with low end motherboards and graphics cards.

[manic mural]

well um

[manic mural]

Check if that game has dlss

and at least up texture to high

[ivory sage]

You could do the best of both worlds and either get one of the 43" 4k 144hz monitors that exist. Both Asus and Gigabyte have one. I have the Aorus.

[manic mural]

and also, not really elitist when a 1080p144hz panel would be cheaper and better for gaming than a 4k tv

4k hard on GPU

[full wing]

Actually I kinda do have a monitor but they are portable monitors from the C-Force Kickstarter campaigns they work too. But I prefer the TV.

[full wing]

But 4K shouldn't be hard on a GPU that is designed for 4K that makes zero sense. Do you mean it is hard on this specific GPU?

[ivory sage]

the 2060 isn't a GPU designed for 4k.

it supports 4k output but so do IGPU's ya know?

[manic mural]

It is not designed for 4k gaming

and well, it's like saying a plane is designed for spaceflight, just because it can fly

[full wing]

So your saying it was more designed for standard HD gaming. But it supports 4K movies better then it would handle 4K gaming, so I would be better off playing games at lower settings and then enjoying it for 4K movies if I choose to do that right?

[ivory sage]

ye

[manic mural]

Basically, yes

[full wing]

I don't know much about PC stuff and a lot of it still goes over my head.

[manic mural]

But check if the game has dlss, dlss can help

[full wing]

dlss? Should I be able to find that in the game's Steam page?

[manic mural]

In the settings, but what game is it?

[full wing]

Horizon Zero Dawn

[full wing]

Hang on I shut off the game until I was able to get help. So now let me relaunch the game real quick.

[manic mural]

It doesn't sadly

[full wing]

Oh?

I just realized I didn't share my display settings. I posted my graphics settings earlier which I can repost if you need that again. But is there anything I'm doing wrong here with my current set up? I think the others can be ignored. Its just graphics and display that could cause terrible rendering.

I think HDR settings are unavailable because my HDR is turned off.

[manic mural]

can't do much there

but well, you should just up the settings if you just want it to look better

sure it will get laggy but well, looks

unfortunate that it doesn't have dlss

[full wing]

whats so great about dlss? I watched a Linus Tech tips video about it but so much more sophisticated language went over my head. So I couldn't understand all of it.

[manic mural]

Makes things look good and perform better

[full wing]

I believe my graphics card supports dlss. But what do I know. I'm only recently starting to understand a little more of this PC talk.

[manic mural]

The game needs to support DLSS too, but 2060 does support DLSS.

[full wing]

Doesn't the Geforce now experience have a hub that adds a library of games to it that it can use its features with? like dlss

[manic mural]

?

Geforce now is a cloud gaming service, Geforce experience doesn't do too much other than for drivers

[full wing]

This

[manic mural]

Yea, geforce experience doesn't actually do much

The "optimize" option just changes a few settings around

[full wing]

Yeah. I didn't have a good experience with that. The first time I tried playing Just Cause 3 with Geforce Experience I was driving fast in a vehicle, blewing stuff by crashing into them then I fell through the ground I was getting near a bridge so I fell into the water and I couldn't get out. There was an invisible berrier. It reminded me of No Man's Sky early days.

I won't be using it again.

[full wing]

I don't know if you can see that. I tried to find the name of my PC but we got one of the good ones at Costco and paid for the warrenty doubled with the manufacturers warrenty

[white horizon]

I had a huge haul on Steam today! A bunch of games my GPU can handle were on great deals.

I got a bunch of cool indie and past-gen games for the price of one Switch game.

[full wing]

I lowered the resolution because you guys or gals said that my graphics card isn't made for 4K gaming. Immediately I saw the Vram usage dropping is that a good thing or a bad thing?

[ivory sage]

It's good

[full wing]

I think I figured out my problem. I turned off antialiasing because I think it was that which was ruining my experience, visually it could be better. I would like to game at 4K, but I don't have too. My graphics card handled other games just fine. So it is weird that this is the first one to have issues.

[full wing]

Alright! I had a good gameplay experience after the changes were made! Thank you EVERYONE WHO tried to help and thanks for teaching me something new in the process!

[full wing]

No Man's Sky, Just Cause 3, I didn't like Just Cause 4. Mass Effect Andromeda I don't play Call of Duty or fortnite

[vivid shale]

Horizon Zero Dawn is an amazing game

I loved ir

It*

[full wing]

I played it almost to the end on PS4. But never really beat. If I had to guess I bet you did it beat it. This time I'm going to do it for real on PC.

[vivid shale]

Yeah i beat it then went to replay it but decided not to finish it due to the difficulty i was on in NG+ and then i got it again on PS5 and am working on beating it again

[worthy jungle]

Hey @proven radish

Dyk how I can play a vr game from my pc to the headset? I got it plugged in and the game launched

Pavlov

Yeah

Pavlov vr

I launched it in oculus mode

Oh

Where do I download that from? Steam store?

Don't have disc open on my pc atm, sorry for pics

That just says view your queue

Oh

Ty, it's installing

Do I have to launch that seperately?

Cool ty

[worthy jungle]

Sorry for bugging you so much @proven radish, having another issue, launched Pavlov again and steamvr is saying to plug in headset even though it's plugged in and I chose to allow it on the headset

Is it bc im not using a USB c to USB c?

It's a regular USB port to a USB c because I don't have a USB c port and didn't buy an adapter yet

Do I need the oculus app on my pc?

That'd make sense lmak

On it ty

Can all quest 2s do air link, and is there a down side to it at all?

You think it's worth buying an external Bluetooth card?

Wait you dont?

I just guessed it was

How's it connect?

@pale basin Should I use 1k ducats on a paracesis?

In preparation for new war?

I have 1330 ducats atm

[manic mural]

anyways :)

[pale basin]

you can if you want, sentients are pretty easy to kill without the paracesis but i dont know how many sentients or if theyre adding new enemies that would benefit us using paracesis

also nice

now youll actually be able to do the orphix missions in rj

[manic mural]

mmm

ima do it

[pale basin]

also aimbot prime and hydroid prime are available. of the 2 id recommend aimbot prime over hyrdoid

weapons, you already have the best one out of them, the redeemer prime so id just save the aya after getting aimbot prime

[manic mural]

Who dat

I'm having a new problem and I need help please?

[manic mural]

wat is it

[full wing]

I'm mostly seeing this with yuzu and Retroarch right now. It hasn't impacted me on everything so far that I noticed, but when I plug my PS5 controller in my PC to use it with Retroarch. I see the arrow move all over the place the same direction as where I'm moving my thumb on the joystick. How to I get rid of it? So that it is only just controller input without the arrow showing up.

[timid swan]

It could be the gyroscope is being detected as a second stick input, I had that problem with some games with PS4 controller

[full wing]

That sounds like a good conclusion. I wouldn't have thought of that.

[timid swan]

When you're binding keys make sure the controller is flat and level on a surface, and it should minimize accidentally binding the sixaxis gyroscope

[full wing]

where do I go to do that?

[timid swan]

Depends on what program you're using to bind keys

I haven't touched retroarch myself

[full wing]

well now when I load Retroarch the select rectangle or whatever you call it for retroarch. Keeps going up full speed and restarts at the bottom in a continuus cycle. I've also noticed it is detecting my PS5 controller as a dualshock 4 upon launch. weird.

But Yuzu is still doing the thing with the mouse its not as bad as what had just happened to retroarch.

[full wing]

Yeah Retroarch is still detecting my PS5 controller as dual shock 4.

[full wing]

I think I may have fixed it through Steam.

[full wing]

Not fixed.

[full wing]

does anyone know where I can buy old CD keys?
like NFS Underground 2 and Most Wanted 2005
I tried contacting EA directly to buy from them
I was even willing to pay like 50 bucks
but they just don't want to sell them

[tame cobalt]

of course they don't want to sell

licensing

they'd have to renew all the licensed content in those games

idk if anyone resells specifically nfsu2 keys

same with mw

[timid swan]

This is why emulation exists. When the company refuses to even sell you the game... Get an old PS2 disc and load up pcsx2

[dusky fjord]

Does anyone know how good the HP Pavilion Gaming desktop can run Rust? it has a Ryzen 5, radeon rx5500

[chrome sierra]

le clean shot

[vivid shale]

does anybody here use a oculus quest and knows how to do the mixed reality recording thing through the app? my phone is supported and im on version 140 but idk where the button is

does it maybe not show when im not on V35? im on V34 still but im charging my headset so i can update

[vivid shale]

So i figured out how to do it because Oculus has a support website for it but it doesnt show up on my phone for some reason…

[vivid shale]

I tried on my dads phone which is a iPhone 13 and still same issue

[timid swan]

Assuming you mean R5 3600 and not 1600 or something, you can do 1080p medium-high at about 80-90 fps

[stone skiff]

This is 1 of the lesser reasons why I prefer car games on consoles, especially ps2. Just have disc, never worry about a cdkey or server bs. Bummer.

[full wing]

My PS2 is burried deep in storage and our tv doesn't have the A/V cable connections so I will have to buy an HDMI adapter first

[stone skiff]

That in vr? Well, pretty rad either way

[stone skiff]

Dang. Yeah mine is in storage too. At least my old tv has composite inputs.

I was gonna ask about which of my games should be on ssd vs hdd, but I'll google*. Well, wouldn't mind any input.

[full wing]

I put any game I play often and larger games like fallout 76 and GTA v on my ssd. Games I play occasionally or that are small like fallout 3 or terraria go in my hdd

[stone skiff]

Gotcha, ok. Gta V i get, 20 min hdd load. Current ssd is a 250gb, so can only handle a few games. Think I'll clone to the new 1TB while it'so only 100GB to copy. @full wing thnx. A 4TB hdd is cool, but might as well use these good hdds.

[ivory sage]

Forza horizon 5 is so fun

[full wing]

yes

BUT

Can I introduce you to my friend

[ivory sage]

Nah

[full wing]

Best racing game of all time

dont @ me

[ivory sage]

@full wing no

[full wing]

well Underground 2 and this tie for first place

[full wing]

except quite literally yes

[ivory sage]

Nah

[full wing]

yeah

Forza is an arcade racer that is trying to be a sim racer. at least NFS knows it is an arcade racer

[ivory sage]

Forza horizon isn't really an arcade racer.

It's just like TDU

[stone skiff]

Hot Pursuit 2 was my jam.

[timid swan]

The burnout series had some good games in it too. Going 200 mph actually felt like 200 mph too.

[grim cairn]

yo anyone in this chat know how i could fix garbage bitrate on my link cable for my oculus quest 2

my computer is vr ready and can run my games but when im in environments with certains tones and textures the bitrate goes way down and its actually unacceptable

and it happens way too often in games, especially half life alyx

anyone lmk if there is something i can do because this problem is killing me

[pale basin]

what gpu do you have? just cause its vr ready doesnt mean it can or should run vr. also is your oculus up to date?

[grim cairn]

it’s a 3070, but it’s in a gaming laptop unfortunately

and yes I’m pretty sure my quest 2 is up to date on everything

[pale basin]

thats weird then. should be able to handle it just fine

[grim cairn]

well the weird thing is that it does run the games fine

But the bit rate just gets absolutely horrible at certain points

the laptop has type a 3.2 gen ports so I’m fine in that area

I don’t know if it’s my cable, my computer being bad at sending the video to my quest or what

I’m stumped

[calm reef]

what does a bandwidth test say

[grim cairn]

well the oculus app says it’s compatible and the Amazon page says it’s like above 5 gbps or whatever

I think that’s what u guys were asking

https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Powerline-Pull-up-Resistor-MacBook/dp/B01MZIPYPY

here’s the link

[full wing]

Horizon Zero Dawn JUST GOT PATCHED! It now supports DLSS!

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1151640/view/3132813305769623751

Maybe I can finally up my settings a bit and change it make it look better!

[calm reef]

i mean is that what the site says or is that what your test results say, because i have a very hard time believing it tested at 5gbps

[grim cairn]

Thanks I’ll check it out

[grim cairn]

well when i first got this laptop and downloaded the oculus app to get my link setup, it said my cable was compatible

but yeah the Amazon page says it’s over 5 gbps

from what i remember

also thanks guys for the help so far i appreciate it

I’ve felt really alone and hopeless about this situation because i haven’t been able to find anything quite like the issue im having

also I’m gonna be gone for four days so I’m not gonna see anything beyond this point in awhile

but I’ll come back to here

does ddu mean redownload? and also idk how to download drivers on safe mode

ah wait just looked it up

i dont know if i want to rip all the display drivers from my laptop

seems kinda sketchy idk if i want to ruin anything

because this laptop came in absolutely packed with softwares and programs built in

idk if i might mess something up

[vagrant yew]

Download Display Driver Uninstaller DDU - Display Driver Uninstaller is a driver removal utility that can help you completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers and packages from your system, without leaving leftovers behind (including registry keys, folders and files, driver store).

https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

its explained in full here

[grim cairn]

alright sounds good

thank you guys

ill try it out with a few other things to see if it fixes the problem

but ill have to do all that in like 4 days since im leaving in a little

thanks for all the help so far

i appreciate it alot

[manic mural]

Honestly I think the issue might be coming from that

Random software by the OEM

[ivory sage]

I love this game lol

[manic mural]

@ivory sage you seem like someone that'd enjoy just cause 3/4

[ivory sage]

I dooooo

Give me a Grapple hook and I'll literally swing everywhere

[manic mural]

Yea

I haven't actually played jc4 even though I've had it ever since epic games made it free

Played a good amount of jc3 though

[ivory sage]

hell, let me increase my movement speed and I won't use any vehicles.

[manic mural]

Fly to the moon

[ivory sage]

Like in CP2077 I never drive, cause running and the bus fast travel is faster

[manic mural]

[ivory sage]

Oblivion getting to 100+ speed was fun too.

[calm reef]

what does this return

[keen quest]

im getting fps drops on fortnite with performance mode enabled what is the cause of this

[pallid dome]

That happens on any and all hardware

Does anyone here have experience with the pre rendered CPU frame option in the Nvidia control panel?

trying to figure out if it would net some benefit to VR titles that are only using 19-32% of my CPU

[timid swan]

Test it and find out. Not all games respond the same to that setting.

[grim cairn]

is that on the oculus app?

nvm just found it

and btw im now on the official oculus link

wtf

2.3 gbps?

i dont think thats right

[calm reef]

looks fine, I only get ~1.6gbps

[grim cairn]

ah ok

well i just found a video

and im pretty pretty sure this will fix my odd issue

im really hoping

brb lemme try my games

[grim cairn]

k so i watched a video and it didn't work out at first but then i kinda messed around with what he suggested to do and now the bit rate got way better

not perfect yet

but it is way more enjoyable

im really happy i was even able to get this far

[short mural]

Why do people pre order games when it’s a digital download and they’ll never have to wait in line anyways?

[grim cairn]

delusion

[manic mural]

Sometimes preorder bonuses, most of the time, it's because they just want the game either way, and want to buy it early so they can play it on launch

[full wing]

I finally figured out how to dump my games from Wii U to use with Cemu. But the emulator never registered or worked either of my Playstation controllers, I've tried everything. Then I downloaded DS4 Windows now I keep getting an annoying make changes pop up which forced me to restart my computer. It's not happening now, but I would like to play Xenoblade Chronicles X again in peace.

[full wing]

Alright I fixed my problem on my own. Everything is smooth!

[primal kernel]

Carti is on “top” and has a lot of success “right now”. But he didn’t “wake up like this”, it’s been a “long time” coming. Before he would “pull up” in a “foreign” and put some “mileage” on his lambo in the “middle of the summer” he was a “broke boi” with his stummy hurtin, “lookin” for crumbs, hoping to one day “flex” in a new “location”

[marble lotus]

Is it a 30-series only thing? Where's that setting located? Sounds exciting.

[stone skiff]

Meh, general setting that doesn't seem to do much. I have it, & also might've been a setting for 970 & 660. Go to global 3d settings or select a game & scroll down a ways, you'll find it.

[marble lotus]

I knew i screwed up when i threw the grenade against the wall and see it bounce towards my friend (this is from other friend's pov)

[manic mural]

uh oh

[manic mural]

FINKA LMG IS THE WAY

did they remove the acog from lmg or does your friend not like acog

[daring valve]

He dont do acog

Also i realized that the vector 45 acp is such a nutty weapon

I need to start recording videos with my friends cause all we do is joke all the time

[manic mural]

high firerate is fun

ngl I've been tempted to get some kind of alt for seg, my main acc is just too high level to be in fun matches

or maybe I should try to purposefully throw so my casual mmr goes down

[daring valve]

Smurfing is ban-able but throwing mmr isnt sooo there ya go

[manic mural]

its just annoying

[manic mural]

I really don't want to be throwing and giving a bad time to other people

well

tbh I might just play ranked normally and try to have fun in ranked, that should give me a low-ish rank and my casual mmr next season should also fall

[daring valve]

Great idea

[manic mural]

Do you know if casual mmr is still based off ranked mmr now?

[daring valve]

Dont believe so

Im a silver 2 and placing against diamond and plat ranks in cas

[manic mural]

Its just I haven't had a rank for like 4 seasons

only been playing casual

and my casual mmr has basically be constant

My last ranked rank was Y5S2 lol

its Y6S4 now

Weird not for me

is that a good pc for medium 1080p settings on rust?

[manic mural]

It should do fine

[daring valve]

Suggest more storage but other than that it should suffice just gonna be rough on that 3000mhz ram

[stone skiff]

Also 2-4TB hdd for extra stuff or games that don't need the speed is a fine idea.

thats a cable issue sadly

I play minecraft

Oops I just realized you asked that awhile ago xD

Sorry for ping

[median vigil]

I was jw about the microsoft download on the app store vs downloading it off the web unless it forces into the app store anyway. Idk but it doesn’t matter now cause i just got it through the app store.

[pale basin]

theres a difference

theres java edition and bedrock edition. i assume because theyve updated the launcher in the microsoft store you can access java editon through that now as well but it has 1.9 stars so i assume that launcher isnt as good as through minecrafts website

[stiff geyser]

In the launcher I downloaded it said to get the new launcher from the store because it's better. I got it and it's literally exactly the same thing. So like why? Why Microsoft?

[pale basin]

its because the "old" launcher wasnt capable of launching minecraft bedrock edition and i believe it couldnt launch minecraft dungeon. new launcher its just an updated version to allow you to launch any of the 3 games

[loud inlet]

The new Minecraft launcher is actual booty cheeks

Hey Everyone, I don't post here much, but I'm looking for ideas or feedback.

I'm still a little new to the VR scene, I got a Meta Quest 2 Headset and want to learn more.
I want to write more VR-related articles and try to cover VR gaming in general.

I just finished writing this article on the Meta Quest 2 on Newegg Insider:
https://www.newegg.com/insider/meta-quest-2-guides-avatars-tutorials-and-metaverse/

What games or hidden gems should people really be playing or know about moving into 2022?

[ivory sage]

Skyrim

[humble bramble]

Tomb raider GOTY, rise of the tomb raider, and shadow are all free on epic rn

[stone skiff]

Imagine not already owning 2 of them.

[calm reef]

beat saber is a must have for vr. half life alyx is another really good one, boneworks is interesting with the physics, budget cuts for story gameplay. there are other games like township tale that not as many people know about, it's a open world rpg that's pretty good.
There are also the local asymmetric games like keep talking nobody explodes.
on a side note from games horizon workrooms is a very cool concept as a zoom replacement in the work world

[hazy basin]

Beat saber is the only reason vr is worth it

[manic mural]

Pavlov VR can be a fun shooter game, and Arizona Sunshine can be a fun zombie survival game, there's also just hotdogs horshoes and handgrenades which I don't even know what to classify it as other than a sandbox

[dense vale]

to me, beat saber feels like the only game which was actually made for VR, versus just about everything else which has been forcing other game concepts to conform to VR

[calm reef]

I also love puzzle games, the room vr is so cool

[ruby whale]

What’s the best gaming wireless mouse in your opinion?

[dense vale]

G pro X superlight

[manic mural]

Superlight or viper ultimate prob

[ruby whale]

Viper ultimate >> DeathAdder V2 Pro?

[manic mural]

yea

I don't think we'll be seeing anything above viper ultimate until they somehow do 8khz wireless or smth

[stone skiff]

8KHz really doesnt work well right now. 2KHz is ok in most games though. I forget where but I read a couple reviews on it w/ the wired 8KHz mouse.

[pale basin]

finalmouse starlight is the best lightweight wireless mouse out right now but thats assuming you can get it for around retail which is like, $200 or so with tax otherwise g pro superlight

viper ultimate is a good pick too but would only recommend it if youre getting it around $80~$100

[manic mural]

Finalmouse is weird

[dense vale]

it looks like the mouse skin you'd get for completing the game

[pale basin]

ye, for the starlight lineup they wanted a design of something like roman/greek design. mythology stuff and their color waves are also named stuff like that, most recent was pegasus and i think the next color wave theyre releasing is called poiseden or something like that

[dense geode]

i have created a janky setup for vr without actually buying any actual vr hardware

im gonna use my phone for a headset wii remotes for controllers and a xbox 360 kinect for tracking

[calm reef]

0_0

[dense geode]

who needs valve index when you have random stuff from old consoles and a dream

[dense geode]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMSPY9DBsSU

Oml some one did exactly what im gonna do

My absolutely stupid concept works

[timid swan]

Better be a motion plus wiimote at least, that extra axis is really helpful

[dense geode]

i do have a motion plus wiimote

this setup will be legendary

i could actually achieve really cheap vr

although my computer is sub-par for vr so next step after getting the setup going is upgrading my gpu to something like a gtx 1660 or if im lucky maybe a 3060 or like a 2070

i think my cpu is fine for rn but id like to get a 5600x or similar

seeing as i dont need the iGPU anymore

[full wing]

Where do i install genshin for pc (If its on pc that is)

[pale basin]

epic games and also i believe it has its own launcher if you dont want to use epic games

[full wing]

Alr thanks

Yo is the wiimote like accurate at all?

it’s not jittery and disconnecting etc

budget cuts is a pretty cool rpg

i finished superhot in like 3 days, super fun game though, would reccommend

[halcyon fossil]

budget cuts yes

i still need to get budget cuts 2

such a good game tbh

[daring valve]

There's quiet a few but if you want a music based a few would be like beat saber as the most common and there's and few others as well

[abstract wraith]

If you can do airlink or oculus link with a PC then you can play any steamVR game. That's what I do with mine.

[daring valve]

I use a cable cause wifi go brrrr with base stations since pc too far to do ethernet

And base stations play with my 5Ghz wifi and makes my 2.4Ghz no existant

[abstract wraith]

Wireless usually works for me but sometimes it just decides to be really crappy for no reason

It is quite neat to be able to play VR games on my PC that is in a completely different room than me though

Not worrying about tripping over a wire and literally going prone in games is so fun

[daring valve]

I used to play virtual battlegrounds when it had tourneys and I went prone with the 50 bmg and oh boi I was ranking in the top leagues till my wifi when I lived in arizona took a nice long nap lol

[worthy jungle]

aight so im still having an issue

its directly related to fortnite (yes i play, laugh at me)

when playing fortnite, or when i close/open it, my pc will freeze

two different freezes will occur

one where my screens all go black, but theyre still on, or where all screens just freeze other than my mouse

i have to hard restart my pc (hold power button) to turn my pc off

when i open my pc back up, i get a message from vangaurd (riots anti cheats) that it blocked an app from running on this pc

is it the two anti cheats colliding? (i know the anti cheats have a history of being buggy)

if so, would installing riot/valorant on an external drive and fortnite on an internal and taking the external out when not using it fix my issue?

[hidden jetty]

Does anyone know where SteamVR logs are kept, trying to diagnose a tracking issue but I can't tell which tracker is paired to which dongle or which base station is the one losing the tracking since they are sync cabled.

[daring valve]

me playing scp and i open a door and see scp-173 in front of my face breathing down my cheeks about to ask about my car's extended warranty and a i hear a noise behind me

i died to mr.planter's cousin

[daring valve]

but we were in a lobby with 62 people and it was hectic and one group got massively slaughtered by 069 funny enough

[manic mural]

They all spawn in as CI and slaughter every SCP with LMGs

[daring valve]

i wish it was just a nightmare honestly my friend and fellow other 2 group members watched me kick a dead body as a joke and 682 snagged them both and my friend just told me to run and i did then he locked the door behind us

we did a custom run and it was probably the most horrifying game i have ever played in vr or at all in general but i wanna do another run tonight will a full 64 player lobby but split up into group of 8 instead of 4s

[daring valve]

i love how it is full body compatible as well but i have yet to try or check if it is compatible with holosuits haptic suit or not

Immersive femur breaker

[daring valve]

oh lord yes

[manic mural]

How does it feel to die in the pocket dimension, that is the question

[daring valve]

havnt dealt with that yet

[glacial nimbus]

My framerate doesn't change at all when I turn my graphics settings up, would anyone know why this is (foxhole)

[daring valve]

Do you have a framecap or vsync on?

[glacial nimbus]

No

[ivory sage]

is your monitor set to the correct resolution

[glacial nimbus]

Yeah

It's a laptop so it's just on 1080p

[ivory sage]

oh, sorry

I meant correct refresh rate. but yeah probably

open up nvidia control panel and disable the integrated gpu. to make sure its running on the GPU

[glacial nimbus]

It is running on the dgpu

And I have tried disabling the igpu and it goes wacky

Kooky even

Positively absurd if you will

[ivory sage]

hm

[glacial nimbus]

Yeah it doesn't have a mux switch

So when I used my brother's monitor the frames were a bit better

[sudden yew]

i have no sound when playing rdr2, i have the steel series arctis 7 and i have looked online for an answer and cant find one. does anyone know a solution?

[tidal trout]

have you checked your default audio settings?

[tidal trout]

or even audio settings in game just curious.

[sudden yew]

yep, i set them to arctis 7 chat on both and also tried the arctis 7 game

also tried changing things in mixer

[manic mural]

huh

[worthy jungle]

Curious about this, not planning on buying this

A: is this legit or is it a scam website

And B: how do haptic suits work?

https://www.knoxlabs.com/products/tactsuit-x16?variant=32865233010735&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gclid=Cj0KCQiAuP-OBhDqARIsAD4XHpdwaBA4Se5UTPpFnFC1hBBDx-fqAPbh7bbT1ogm5zh40U47VDus7x0aAstKEALw_wcB

[daring valve]

yes they work via bluetooth

i have the suit from holosuit but yes it works with haptic compatible games

but it uses mini motors to generate a vibration in each location to simulate touch in games

[stone skiff]

Haven't played in a while.

[daring valve]

this is from my friends pov after some shenanigans

@calm reef starting playing a little osu again, what the heck is this and how do I get past this

looked like spamming keys didn't get me through that line of circles

[calm reef]

lemme try to find good example

[calm reef]

looks like what you would call a stream, in that vid it actually looks like you are going a bit too fast. streams take a long time to get used to but once you get it not too bad until you hit very high bpm songs. what I would do is try to think of a consistent rhythm, this song is a good example of that: https://youtu.be/FfYeCjcfNck hear the very consistent beat and try with 2 fingers to tap to the rhythm. the goal here is to be very even not necessarily trying to go as fast as humanly possible

after some time you can kind of hear that even consistent rhythm the mapper was trying to bring out or even create in the song used

like if i was making a map i would probably put a stream right around after 1:40 of this song haha https://youtu.be/bs5aLFn7GTo

I also just love this song

[manic mural]

huh

much thanks

[manic mural]

Do you have a specific map in mind that I could try playing with?

This is getting pretty late, prob shouldn't have pinged, but another small thing, with these that are just circle+slider or 2 circles, I've been pressing the same key twice, but its getting harder with the circles getting closer together, and sometimes mapper mix in 3 total circle+slider, which messes me up and I have to use 2 fingers, so should I just try to use 2 fingers whenever there's 2 circles? Another thing is that I seem to be clicking everything a bit too quickly and early with 2 fingers...

[calm reef]

personally with the pattern of that map i would do 2 fingers slowly, can be done with 1 but could get annoying after a while. sometimes I would challenge myself to play one map with only 1 finger and see how far i get to improve how fast i can go with just 1

[calm reef]

I played this map on relax for a while to practice following streams: https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/742961#osu/1816113
and then this one to actually play on anzy's insane but it might be a bit too hard could try on half time: https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/934878#osu/1975855

my anger is immeasurable

[manic mural]

Isn't that a fc?

Much thanks for the maps

[calm reef]

no i slider broke within the last 10 or so

@onyx grove did you get this email too?

[onyx grove]

nope, i apparently havent been playing enough

[manic mural]

Huh

I haven't been playing much recently, just a few games

[pale basin]

if only they sent me that when i used to actually play

[onyx grove]

if they sent it to me i would tell em just how stupid this game is now

[manic mural]

lol

[onyx grove]

and ofc the new UI changes

the worst

[manic mural]

my eyes

[onyx grove]

literally just looks bad

theres no other word for it, its just not designed very well

[manic mural]

and hurts eyes

[onyx grove]

like, from a design perspective

[manic mural]

why is it so bright now

it tries to be modern looking

by adding edges and bright things

but that just hurts eyes, the old more grayscale ui was so much nicer on the eyes

[onyx grove]

halo infinite character models going brazy

[pale basin]

wdym? its a cosmetic

[onyx grove]

missingno themed cosmetic

[onyx grove]

this is either the most optimized FPS game ive ever seen, or the absolute worst

this is in the menus

time to check the cpu frametimes

me when game crash O_O

wouldnt be a ubisoft game if it didnt tho, lets be real

[stone skiff]

At menus, I'd say crap. 99% so you can't easily browse the web or something? Idk

[onyx grove]

yeah, definetly just the menus

in game, its hitting 35-40%

this is across 24 threads too

pretty evenly distributed

[obsidian topaz]

anyone have BO1 and want to do the moon easter egg? i dont have the focusing stone so you would need to have it

I just started pc gaming i play my pc games at 720p to 1080p i cant tell difference on my 28 inch monitor

[onyx grove]

@manic mural u play extraction yet?

is not bad

fun PvE

[manic mural]

Nah, reviews say it get really repetitive with no story so I'm not going to fork out 30$ for it

Might get it if it goes on sale

[onyx grove]

its on pc game pass for dolor

its significantly less repetitive than cod zombies, thats for sure

but thats all it really is, but with seg ops

so its fun for a bit

i would pay

$10

i think thats how much the game is worth

[manic mural]

Yea 10$ sounds right

[timid swan]

Dang Origin, brutal callout

[pale basin]

[daring valve]

I can be that friend on origin if ya wanted one

[spare folio]

ill be ur fren on origin

[timid swan]

Thanks but I'm not on there often, I just found it funny how they phrased that.

[distant sinew]

any recommendations on casual pc games to play with a friend?

[ivory sage]

Terraria, Minecraft, Stardew Valley, Starbound, Halo.

[timid swan]

I guess halo counts as casual lol

If you do co-op and not multiplayer

[pale basin]

warframe

[manic mural]

Warframe is grindy but casual

[manic mural]

[austere ermine]

hey I was using virtual desktop for my quest and when i closed out of my quest and closed out virtual desktop, the screen stayed at 1920 by 1080p even though my screen is normally at 1366x780p. I cant change it back in settings either and idk what to do. can someone help?

[austere ermine]

solved.

[stone skiff]

Left 4 Dead 2 if on sale

[vivid shale]

so my computer when i run certain games usually games that are graphic intensive my entire PC crashes and ramps the fans up really high and will just stay like that without allowing input to the computer or displaying anything on the screen could this potentially be caused by a faulty power supply?

everything in my computer is new as of last month besides my RAM and storage drives...

if needed i can get a video to show an example of the crash

[vivid shale]

Nvm i think its GPU… it reaches 99% util just before crashing

[daring valve]

What psu are you running?

[manic mural]

Could be windows, could be drivers, could be ram, could be gpu

[tidal trout]

What's the build and do you have airflow in the tower it could be overheating too that will trip safety shutdowns I've had that happen on a Asus laptop

[vivid shale]

i5-12600k, 2080 super, 32GB 3200MHz RAM and the PSU is a Rosewill Glacier Series 700W psu and the CPU is water cooled

I wont be able to send a pic of the PC till late tomorrow to show airflow though and this also happens when i just boot up the pc where i boot then i go run a game and it’ll just crash the whole pc

[glacial nimbus]

australia moment

[spare folio]

how does australia have anything to do with this?

[glacial nimbus]

my wifi speeds

[spare folio]

so u have bad speeds

[glacial nimbus]

abysmal

most of australia does

[spare folio]

i mean you get what you pay for

that looks like a 50mbps plan

?

[stone skiff]

Yep, 6ish * 8=50. Probably means the net going down. I'd blame my router or power outage before my internet provider.

[glacial nimbus]

nah its an 100

[spare folio]

makes sense

thats kinda normal

probably crap isp provided router

that cant handle multiple devices

and ur on wifi

[stone skiff]

[deft sun]

just bought a gk61 as i am getting into pc gaming, does anyone recommend how i should mod it

[minor jackal]

What gpu should I get for vr?

[timid swan]

It depends on the game but you'll probably want a 2080/3070 or better for a smooth experience

[vivid shale]

well troubleshot my PC first thing i did was remove my GPU and tried playing on the integrated GPU of my CPU... worked fine so i guess that means the issue is either drivers or my actual GPU...

luckily if its not drivers i still got warranty

[vivid shale]

Appears to be drivers so far

I reinstalled them and so far the issue hasnt occurred

I just had to say it…

It did it again

Its not temperature issues either i did an open air test

[vivid shale]

Actually now im leaning more to it being psu as i checked the event logger and it said it unexpectedly lost power

[visual moon]

@16chunk render distance in Minecraft means 8chunk to the right (from player) 8 on left, 8 front and 8 back?
Or is it 16 left, 16right, 16back, 16front?

Probably 8-8-8-8

[ivory sage]

Should be 16 each direction

[prisma hatch]

bru i get 2.5 mbs 4 if i am lucky dont complain

and i am not in australia

[tidal trout]

Anyone playing rainbow six extraction yet?

[tidal trout]

For one you need to upgrade your cpu your gonna bottleneck your gpu with that one, I run a 9700k and a 2080ti they work excellent together, second go to your bios and reset to recommended setting for now and change them after you make sure there are more problems if so move on from there. The cpu was just a good suggestion you don't have to but it'd run better overall.

[manic mural]

what

excuse me?

[manic mural]

2080 super is definitely bottlenecking the 12600k

9700k is much weaker than a 12600k in basically every measure, single core and multi core

P&E cores are great on 12th gen

[tidal trout]

How it's even lower grade from what I understand.

[manic mural]

although that reminds me

[manic mural]

windows 10 or 11?

[vivid shale]

11

[tidal trout]

That'll do it 11 is trash

[manic mural]

yea was wondering if scheduler would've been the issue

[manic mural]

nah gotta have 11 atm for the scheduler for 12th gen

don't think they fixed it on win10 yet

[tidal trout]

Oh that sucks

[manic mural]

i3 i5 i7 i9 labels are meaningless

newer arch with faster cores

and also more cores

and more threads

[tidal trout]

How many cores is it?

[vivid shale]

If its scheduler would the only way to fix it then be to downgrade back to 10?

And the bios was untouched besides XMP which i disabled and the issue didnt fix

[manic mural]

could put some blame on psu

glacier not the best

[tidal trout]

That's like comparing the 2080ti to the 3000 series cards their not worth the upgrade

[vivid shale]

I got a new one coming in Wednesday… hopefully it fixes

[tidal trout]

Except 3090 which is a stretch

[manic mural]

doesn't matter if they're a crap ton faster, which they kind of are

[vivid shale]

3070 is better than the 2080

[manic mural]

6 p cores that are hyperthreaded plus 4 e cores that aren't hyperthreaded

[tidal trout]

But I'll have to upgrade components eventually

[manic mural]

ends up with 16 threads
