[storm cairn]

thats even choppier than me

[fair raft]

[proven sundial]

Keep it simple bucketheads

[woven jay]

Ohhh so I would have to check it a week later XD when I started the game on day1 it was not there yet cuz its Jan 28, thanks for the help

[golden zenith]

im confused, what just happen

[rancid loom]

I am keeping it simple lol, it's just that the train of thought is being broken

[reef blaze]

Someone please help me fix my arknights lag :(( i already disabled the nvidia thingy, but still it feels too laggy to play even though my graphics settings is low 😭😭 I don't understand what's wrong, this is my laptop specs

[mossy sky]

they are all minor issues that I can solve in various ways. But sometimes they are really inconvenient.

[storm cairn]

lowk thinking ur rage baiting us

[rancid loom]

aight, although let us know if you still have troubles

[storm cairn]

have u tried running the game through the .exe yet?

[reef blaze]

I'm not I'm serious, it's laggy 😭 it's like barely playable at times idk what's even going wrong, like my other games run so smooth but this one feels laggy

[reef blaze]

How to do that?

[mossy sky]

hav you turned this on?

[storm cairn]

hold on

[reef blaze]

Oh let me check

[storm cairn]

im not on my pc

[rancid loom]

C:\Program Files\GRYPHLINK\games\EndField Game and then search for the Enfield.exe

[rancid loom]

@reef blaze go to that directory in your File Explorer

[reef blaze]

I have this "optimizations for windowed games" on

[storm cairn]

just leave those

[storm cairn]

i doubt they are the problem

🥀

[reef blaze]

Ohhh sure I'll do that right away

[mossy sky]

damn, I don't use win 11

[rancid loom]

are you on Win10? if so it's almost the same

[proven sundial]

Yeah windows eleban

[storm cairn]

tf is eleban

[proven sundial]

Sorry had to say it

[reef blaze]

I have a question, I've noticed that when I turn it to 120 fps in enfield it gives me warning that it's too much for my device? But as far as the specs go i don't think that should be happening

I just feel very confused what's the best graphics what to do or not to do to stop it from lag sigh

[storm cairn]

yo im serious urban dic doesnt even have it

[rancid loom]

you can force apply it if you think you can handle it

[mossy sky]

win 11 is currently unstable

[storm cairn]

that thing is bullshit dont trust it

[reef blaze]

Oh sure then I'll do so

[rancid loom]

Win 10 is also unstable and vulnerable too coz there's no security updates for it

[reef blaze]

What graphics settings shall I choose for my device?

[storm cairn]

max everything out

trust

[sudden sinew]

"let's go gambling"

[storm cairn]

why does he speak so formal tho😭

[rancid loom]

Ye you should be able to handle max settings @reef blaze

[mossy sky]

ye but I don't have any important data on my computer so win 10 still best rn

[storm cairn]

he just like me in my ielts's testing 😭😭😭😭😭

[rancid loom]

aight. regardless, it still has almost the same Settings layout

[sudden sinew]

They dunno you nor you know them

[reef blaze]

Damn 😭😭 this is crazy I never did that thinking my device won't handle it and it was already lagging 🙁

[sudden sinew]

/j btw need infos before

[mossy sky]

and I was using kaspersky for the security

[storm cairn]

lmao

[rancid loom]

what?

[storm cairn]

@proven sundial

[rancid loom]

oh lord

[proven sundial]

Remove REMOVE

[mossy sky]

[storm cairn]

i wanna get Max too

[golden zenith]

DONT hes going Xray

[storm cairn]

im not im not

[golden zenith]

he i mean

[mossy sky]

is that bad?

[reef blaze]

I'm running enfield.exe rn

[rancid loom]

aight let us know what happens

[severe current]

how to fix infinity releasing resources help please

[drowsy cipher]

You know 99.99% of gamblers quit just before winning big

[sudden sinew]

Hi there!
If possible, can you please try the game right now and see if your task manager at the "performance" section shows your laptop is running the game on the rtx 4060 or not please?

[reef blaze]

Sure, I'll also set the settings to high to check what's going on

[rancid loom]

how do we solve this again? was it the regedit one?

[proven sundial]

Nope

[rancid loom]

my memory is failing me coz I'm old

[reef blaze]

Oh sure lemme check rn

[drowsy cipher]

wasnt it clearing the downloader cache in the launcher folder or unzipping it manually?

[rancid loom]

my memory is shot bro lmao

[drowsy cipher]

same, tough week at work, too little sleep

[severe current]

No, I used a VPN to fix it, but it doesn't work anymore

[golden zenith]

is it stuck at 0% releasing resource?

[rancid loom]

@proven sundial how did we solve this again?

[severe current]

Yes

[storm cairn]

Find \Endfield_Data\Persistent\HGDownload in the game files
and delete it
then run the game as admin, and wait for 5 minutes

here

[golden zenith]

try this
#tech-support message

[rancid loom]

@severe current

[proven sundial]

I'm letting you guys think

[sudden sinew]

Alright thanks, is the game still lagging? Normally your RTX 4060 is capable to run on 120fps max settings without much lags.

[rancid loom]

my memory is shot lmao forgive me

[storm cairn]

i forgo

his ram

the game after the latest patch do use more ram

abt 10% more

[reef blaze]

I came in game I'll check the new areas as that's where it lags the most

[storm cairn]

and using up quicker too

[sudden sinew]

wait his ram bottlenecking real

[rancid loom]

go to Wuling

[sudden sinew]

big suffer

[reef blaze]

Oh sure

[drowsy cipher]

what were they doing in wuling, really

except making it offensively chinese

[sudden sinew]

[reef blaze]

I don't have wuling unlocked

😭😭😭

[storm cairn]

might have to tune down to medium with some of the setting off tho

[severe current]

ooh where is this?

[rancid loom]

optimizing Zhuang Fangyi's assets

[reef blaze]

I made it high (default), with volumetric fog as medium

[sudden sinew]

no need yet, we're testing and see

[reef blaze]

Rn no such lag

😭😭

[drowsy cipher]

all i need is quirk chengus

[reef blaze]

Idk what's this blackmagic it's not lagging rn help other times it lags so much like barely playable

[sudden sinew]

wait are you running on dlss perchance?

[storm cairn]

that one might not be the right one sorry

[reef blaze]

Oh yesss

[severe current]

i found it

[rancid loom]

it's in appdata, go to your windows search and type in run

[reef blaze]

I'm running it on this

[sudden sinew]

as I figured

[reef blaze]

Ohh what to fix then?

[drowsy cipher]

what in the name of christ compels you to take pictures instead of just screenshotting it

[sudden sinew]

let me find past sessions for optimizations...

[rancid loom]

:

[drowsy cipher]

[storm cairn]

@severe current try this instead

we dont know honestly

YO

HELL

[reef blaze]

It's slow to do so, since I don't have disc opened on my laptop, so I just took a picture with my phone and sent

[rancid loom]

creazol is lagging

[storm cairn]

my isp is tweaking

[reef blaze]

TYSM for helping me out!

[rancid loom]

[severe current]

i try

[drowsy cipher]

[sudden sinew]

ever tried to set on DLAA instead of dlss frame gen?

[storm cairn]

dw im just lagging

[reef blaze]

I'll do it rn

[sudden sinew]

or find somewhere where it shows dlaa

[rancid loom]

go to your Nvidia app

not in game

[reef blaze]

Omg it's smoother in dlaa

[sudden sinew]

yeah give a try attempt

[storm cairn]

what

[reef blaze]

It feels smoother and more beautiful

[sudden sinew]

[storm cairn]

HOW

[rancid loom]

oh mb

[sudden sinew]

Allxtend's tip

[reef blaze]

I don't know this is the smoothest I ever played

[storm cairn]

NUH UH

#tech-support message

[rancid loom]

ever heard of a work called "Gacha Troubleshooing"?

[reef blaze]

Uh.. I just went to my aic factory

It's lagging again 😭

[sudden sinew]

You gacha too much on your PC huh...

[reef blaze]

I don't know what's going on

[patent shoal]

[storm cairn]

BUT HOW CAN IT SMOOTHER

[sudden sinew]

[sudden sinew]

I am asking

[rancid loom]

calm, can you monitor your usage rn

[storm cairn]

ITS DEFEATED THE WHOLE IDEA OF DLSS

[sudden sinew]

you gamble on DLSS icic

[golden zenith]

imma go read manual, ping me once it settled

[reef blaze]

How to do so?

[proven sundial]

You good ?

[sudden sinew]

[drowsy cipher]

silky smooth 12fps

[patent shoal]

yeah I think im gonna do smth irl instead. Creazol having a stroke rn

[rancid loom]

wait how about we let him turn of DLSS frame gen?

[sudden sinew]

framegen

[severe current]

@storm cairn still

[storm cairn]

IM NOT I NEED ANSWER

[rancid loom]

ye looks like it's the frame gen kicking in

[sudden sinew]

good idea

[golden zenith]

Try this solution
#tech-support message

[storm cairn]

hold on uhh did u follow my message or ignores message?

[sudden sinew]

ok your memory bottlenecking for real now...

[rancid loom]

creazol is in another dimension, Imfao

[reef blaze]

Why is that happening? 😭😭 I don't have any other app open

[storm cairn]

nah dont worry thats plenty

[reef blaze]

It's 16gb ram

[storm cairn]

the game just hogging that much

[reef blaze]

Damn 🙁

[storm cairn]

i have to see for myself in which world dlaa feels smoother than dlss

[restive wagon]

For me, i think it was after the new update on intel Arc, i have a B580 and now Intel put a new update which had some Firmware update too and now Endfield is causing some Black screens at the start and feels like this but more laggy

[reef blaze]

Oh I see.. it's definately very laggy

[rancid loom]

well he's on an Nvidia so I doubt that update on Arc does him any good tho

[stray umbra]

Can someone explain, what is wrong with endfield launcher

[reef blaze]

I turned off the dlss, frame gen, etc stuffie

[stray umbra]

Now I can't even download the launcher

[sudden sinew]

your rtx 4060 is more congruent to my radeon 8060s in fact xD

[stray umbra]

[ionic hatch]

Hello, sorry for barging in, but is there already a solution for the CPU spikes?

[rancid loom]

what's wrong with it?

[reef blaze]

It's again smooth now, but I'm doubtful how much it'd last

[storm cairn]

huh? why you have to?

[proven sundial]

No solution but the devs are working on it

[rancid loom]

creazol are you okay? have you tried restarting your Discord?

[sudden sinew]

expecting it to lag less then...

[storm cairn]

ill say u got 4 hours of playing till u have to restart ur pc

[reef blaze]

Damn..

I'll try this out too

[stray umbra]

The problem is, I don't know

[storm cairn]

im good what ur talking abt😭😭😭😭

[sudden sinew]

ram limit gone hard

[stray umbra]

It's been stuck for 10 minutes

[rancid loom]

wait...I haven't tried fully running Endfield while I sleep....should I?

[stray umbra]

I tried direct link from web, Google play

But none work

[sudden sinew]

[storm cairn]

can u send us a ss of the launcher's downloading?

[sudden sinew]

lessee how your pc suffers

[ionic hatch]

Okay, I hope the problem will be fixed soon. 🙁

[rancid loom]

bruh... I mean you say there's something wrong but you don't know what's wrong with it. How can we help

[stray umbra]

finally something shows

network error, how ??

[proven sundial]

A major patch should come soon so not to worry i already informed

[stray umbra]

i can download honkai starrail in 20 minutes

[rancid loom]

welp it's the waiting game for the pc fixes atm especially that error

[restive wagon]

The black screen issue at the beginning used to be solved by reinstalling the game, but now even that's not working.

[storm cairn]

alr can you googling cloudflare warp and use that?

[stray umbra]

but i cant even download endfield launcher that just couple mb ??

[storm cairn]

endfield just do that

[sudden sinew]

chill, try vpn 👍

[stray umbra]

may i know the logic behind this dissaster ?

[storm cairn]

i honestly dont have other better explaination for u

[sudden sinew]

isp issue, packet losses on your side

[storm cairn]

jittering

[stray umbra]

what is isp ?

[rancid loom]

ye isp issue may be the culprit here... can't connect to download servers for Endfield only.

[rancid loom]

your Internet provider

[sudden sinew]

internet service provider

[proven sundial]

Your internet provider

[storm cairn]

internet service provider

[stray umbra]

i think this is what u ask for

cloudfare warp

[storm cairn]

yes thats the one now try download the launcher again

[sudden sinew]

as vpn? yeah
tried it out?

[toxic atlas]

WARP doesn't always work, as it's more of a fancy proxy service than a full VPN

[proven sundial]

So how was the x-gay

?

[rancid loom]

more like a DNS alterer if you ask me

[sudden sinew]

this is a moment

[stray umbra]

uh, not working XD

[toxic atlas]

Confirmed pneumonia

[rancid loom]

caught in 1080p

[toxic atlas]

Just grab ProtonVPN, or any other good VPN you trust

[storm cairn]

havent used protonvpn to guide them through🥀

[sudden sinew]

wait perchance are you playing in china?

[storm cairn]

no dw

[proven sundial]

Make sure to thin your mucus plenty with warm drinks

[toxic atlas]

It's a free account and free to use for one device at a time

[stray umbra]

malaysia

[sudden sinew]

ah

[storm cairn]

is that like bad or like disaster?

[toxic atlas]

I already got a treatment sheet, dw

[rancid loom]

Copilot says

[stray umbra]

one more try using vpn, link to Taiwan

[toxic atlas]

Not disaster, but not far off

[rancid loom]

so yeah you need VPN

[stray umbra]

something fishy

[sudden sinew]

@toxic atlas can I ping the servers w/ console?

[toxic atlas]

? What is?

[storm cairn]

ye they are fishing u

be careful

better be hurry

[stray umbra]

im not any engineer expert of this web thingy

but

[toxic atlas]

beyond-asiapacific.gryphline.com
beyond-euandus.gryphline.com

[sudden sinew]

yeah this

[storm cairn]

lol dw we just messing with you. its safe

[stray umbra]

i should have this stats

but in proton vpn is just few kb/s

[toxic atlas]

You're just pinging cloudflare edge, not directly server

[stray umbra]

not working too

hmm, im out of ideas

[sudden sinew]

[toxic atlas]

PC reboot, VPN on, try after?

[proven sundial]

I see you are using a tencent client

[rancid loom]

tried pinging the server and it is responding tho

[storm cairn]

a what

[sudden sinew]

congrats

you pinged the api

[toxic atlas]

It's a CF Edge, not the direct server

[rancid loom]

oh it was? lmao

weirdga moment

[proven sundial]

China version windows

Tencent client

[storm cairn]

🥀

this country smh

[proven sundial]

Explain why are you using a modified and cracked windows ?

[rancid loom]

coz it helps him organize stuff

[stray umbra]

crack windows ?

[sudden sinew]

speaking of proxying xD

[rancid loom]

his words not mine

[proven sundial]

I'm going to backscroll

Brb

[rancid loom]

aight

[stray umbra]

bye

[storm cairn]

but what give off tho? except his older messages saying smth about tencent

[toxic atlas]

Ain't that just the norm?

[stray umbra]

ok, im gonna try updating intel and nvidia

[rancid loom]

cracked is the norm
modified? I don't think so

[storm cairn]

debloated counted no?

[golden zenith]

i kinda interested in how Xomori figured it out in a photo.... but i let him do their things first

[stray umbra]

good news it work

[rancid loom]

[stray umbra]

bad news , i cant launch it

impressive i would say

[rancid loom]

[proven sundial]

Nah just from the picture it's one of those tencent clients that auto restricts connections

[rancid loom]

I'm not too familiar with that client. But the more you know I guess

[cinder olive]

Is it safe to run endfield on linux?

[stray umbra]

and for some mysterious reason, the official link also work

[proven sundial]

I've seen it before

[toxic atlas]

Yup, just follow the tutorial in pinned

[rancid loom]

yes

[stray umbra]

IT engineer got a work is, if its working, let it be

the source of problem, not important

[storm cairn]

whay

[cinder olive]

No chances of getting banned?

[storm cairn]

what

[storm cairn]

ye

[sudden sinew]

nuh uh

[storm cairn]

what just happened

[sudden sinew]

if you can explain, then sure you can keep

else you've to ensure a more secure way

[toxic atlas]

Anticheat is deck & linux -friendly, discord mods are not against it, devs are not actively against it

[storm cairn]

why this guy got google play emulator on his pc nowm

?

[rancid loom]

Nope as long as you follow the installation in the normal way

[rancid loom]

It's a Tencent client

[cinder olive]

Alright then

Thnx for the info

[stray umbra]

100 hours, good night everyone

[cinder olive]

Been thinking of getting cachyos

[rancid loom]

I feel this lol

[storm cairn]

its

[toxic atlas]

If you don't want to use Steam for it, you can also use Faugus or Lutris instead

[storm cairn]

google play games

[sudden sinew]

chances to get banned is 0.001% unless you cheat in an epic way

[stray umbra]

becuz im not chinese chinese ?

im malaysian

[storm cairn]

am i tripping here

[stray umbra]

i can use china apps and outside of china app

[toxic atlas]

Don't scare the new user already

[storm cairn]

no no thats not the point. u good tho

[proven sundial]

You need to restart your router every once in a while with the os you are running just saying

[stray umbra]

thanks guys for helping

[sudden sinew]

agree, @cinder olive apologies

[stray umbra]

it work, 4.7 is nice

just praying that it wonk dislink

[rancid loom]

is it because Tencent client automatically reconnects you to their server and restricts connection to some every once in a while??

[storm cairn]

yo holy fuck will this guy play endfield om the shittiest emulator?

[proven sundial]

Pretty much

[potent charm]

Hey I just got this error and the game closed what happened?

[rancid loom]

u scaring the new user huh, bad t404owo

[stray umbra]

google play is a-ok, its still on beta.

lots of game doenst have pc client, like arknight...

[sudden sinew]

[storm cairn]

1 sync ur windows clock

[rancid loom]

guys ACE triggered on him omg

[storm cairn]

2 its vanguard

idk why

[stray umbra]

so, just curious, is the launcher that unstable for endfield ?

[storm cairn]

but vanguard happens to be on while i get this error twice

[stray umbra]

i heard there is a lot of cases when the game in beta and on launch

[sudden sinew]

anticheat moment

which games do you play?

[potent charm]

Tabletop simulator recently

Vanguard isn't on

[storm cairn]

table what

[potent charm]

Game on steam

[sudden sinew]

and which tools or applications are you running?

[storm cairn]

oh i thought u gnna be a tabletop

[sudden sinew]

idc about runnin on steam or not, anticheat can still be a factor bcz of the games on steam

[storm cairn]

not a boardgame

[rancid loom]

the launcher is uncommonly unstable but the game should be the one unstable in the first release. that's normal.

[storm cairn]

🥀

is that defender trying to say something?

[potent charm]

No not really

[proven sundial]

I think this issue is because of memory integrity being on

Windows 11 ?

[potent charm]

Yis

[sudden sinew]

what defender?

[stray umbra]

i just close the cloud thing, and the download speed skyrocket

[short ridge]

13.6mb/s😭

Holy what i would give to have that kinda wi fi

[stray umbra]

and it jumpbetween 1mb/s to 20 mb/s

unstable like hell

[sudden sinew]

275mbps

[proven sundial]

Can you check memory integrity in windows

[potent charm]

One sec

[storm cairn]

fym thats common

[potent charm]

It is on yes

[stray umbra]

one dumb question, why when using wifi speed test, i can have 200 mb/s, but when i download game, its only 10mb/ｓ　？

[proven sundial]

Well this is one of those games that hates memory integrity

[storm cairn]

the one showing u in speedtest is megabit per sec

this here is megabyte per sec

[storm cairn]

lmao right

[sudden sinew]

this is news

[potent charm]

So I just turn it off?

[proven sundial]

At your own risk

[potent charm]

[storm cairn]

its not big of a deal

[sudden sinew]

when luck is a factor

[storm cairn]

vanguard dont even complain

i have it off for 2 years now

bugs free trust

[proven sundial]

Yeah but your os slowly corrupts without memory integrity

Just saying

[golden zenith]

huh, didnt know that... teach me more senpai

[storm cairn]

alr this is new wdym by slowly corrupts?

[sudden sinew]

same

[proven sundial]

This is a memory failsafe

[sudden sinew]

ahhh

[patent shoal]

bro downloading HSR from yesterday and its not finished yet

[potent charm]

The game was fine from the start, but since like yesterday the game had weirdly low fps, and just now it crashed

[storm cairn]

so it isnt just a VBS but also that?

[proven sundial]

Yup

It's not there as a joke hahaha

[storm cairn]

im still not seeing whats the correlation here...

u know where can i read more abt this?

all i could and ever find was some.half ass docs

[golden zenith]

in linux land

[storm cairn]

ill touch u

[short ridge]

Yea uhh....

[proven sundial]

I'll explain more later

[sudden sinew]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/hardware-security/enable-virtualization-based-protection-of-code-integrity?tabs=security

[storm cairn]

are you STILL downloading the game🥀

[short ridge]

Yes

I started at 3 am

Now its 9 pm

[storm cairn]

not really what im looking for tho

[stray umbra]

i can feel the desperate energy

[storm cairn]

but thanks:D

[short ridge]

Well i wanna play the game so what else can i do but wait

[sudden sinew]

what ru looking for then

[storm cairn]

its midnight here i gt sleep

[sudden sinew]

gn

[storm cairn]

the part where it keeps the system from corrupting

xomori will ping me in dw

🔥

[sudden sinew]

protects you from malware or stuffs corrupting your windows yes

[rancid loom]

@proven sundial you mean I should be enabling this?

[proven sundial]

You technically should

[golden zenith]

like Xomori said, at your own risk

[sudden sinew]

real

[toxic atlas]

It's recommended, but might make stuff like some android emulators throw a fit

[rancid loom]

Ye like Mumu probs

[sudden sinew]

it's a ram-virtualization technique lmao

[rancid loom]

I have Mumu emulator so yeah that might've thrown it off its rocker

[toxic atlas]

That doesn't play nice with all virtualization software, especially older vbox versions if those emulators never updated their internal tooling

[sudden sinew]

ik that too

[toxic atlas]

Mumu should be good iirc
Though if you have issues you can always turn it back off

[rancid loom]

Already turned it on and testing the emulator out if it throws a fit

Nope it doesn't

Aight we good guys

[golden zenith]

what about ACE?

hopefully it doesnt throw a fit

[rancid loom]

You want me to try running AKE?

Hold on

[toxic atlas]

Ah, right, KLAC
Though recent versions of ACE should be fine

[north forge]

no you're a KLAC

[rancid loom]

Only reason I'm running an Emulator in a PC anyway is for Azur Lane

[proven sundial]

You returned shunt boy

[north forge]

Wait are you trying to emulate AKEF's mobile version?

[rancid loom]

No?

I already have the official client on PC, why would I even use an emulator

[toxic atlas]

I'm using WayDroid for OG AK

[north forge]

I need to read the ocntext I can't figure out a reason why emulators would be brought up in this channel if not for the sake of emulating AKEF's mobile verison

[rancid loom]

ye better backread first

[proven sundial]

I'm starting to think gentoo is genpoo

Too much small annoyances

[toxic atlas]

Well yes, but that's the fun of it
You can optimize basically every single thing

(though I will never use it in prod for any reason anyway )

[sudden sinew]

agree

[proven sundial]

Definitely not a daily driver for me

[toxic atlas]

Though that wiki is great if you want to learn inner workings of Linux components

Goes a lot more in-depth than the arch wiki, but not as in-depth as LFS

[proven sundial]

Well perhaps i'll try it another time when it's not for a client you know

For now i'm just speedrunning

[toxic atlas]

And if you go for LFS... Satan bless 'cus God won't be reaching out anytime soon

[rancid loom]

Currently running AKE

AKE isn't flagging anything so far

[proven sundial]

Well hopefully it stays that way

[golden zenith]

well that good

[rancid loom]

No memleaks as well. Memory is at 65-67%

[proven sundial]

Actually i wonder if most people that have memory leaks have memory integrity on or off

[golden zenith]

good question

[proven sundial]

[rancid loom]

Good insight. Maybe something to look into for troubleshooting

[patent shoal]

but, isnt the default settings for mem integrity is off on a fresh install

[proven sundial]

It should always be on

[golden zenith]

OOBE is on

[rancid loom]

It should be on since it's Windows recommended settings

Or in this case Windows security

[patent shoal]

eh?, is it tied to regional things, because on every fresh windows install I did, its off by default

[golden zenith]

??? nani

[rancid loom]

The only time I had it turned off is because after I installed Mumu, Windows security notified me that it was off

[proven sundial]

You have a weird windows then

[patent shoal]

hmmm, is it because im using enterprise

the iso is from microsoft itself

[proven sundial]

Ah enterprise

The windows that supports shitty old software

[patent shoal]

ah yeah, its enabled by default on fresh 11 installs

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/oem-hvci-enablement

[rancid loom]

Is both the LTSC and Enterprise different with each other?

I haven't checked

[patent shoal]

different on the update

and which LTSC u were talking

IoT or just the normal LTSC

[rancid loom]

Normal LTSC

[patent shoal]

well, no point for asking that in the first place (my bad) the IoT just adding support for LP and old hardware

[rancid loom]

I only stuck myself on Home and Pro Editions of Windows so I'm not that well informed

[patent shoal]

and to work in usual factory / company deployment that requires no internet usually

[patent shoal]

the reason why im using enterprise is because on enterprise, there's no AI shit that installed on Home and Pro version

[rancid loom]

I see

[proven sundial]

We are all trying to dodge the same thing

But the bullets will hit in the end

That is why i am on linux already hahaha

[patent shoal]

yeah, but instead of using the script that messes with the policy settings, Im gonna opt in to the one that doesnt have that in the first place

ehh, linux is a hit and miss for me

so I cant fully migrate to linux

[proven sundial]

Makes sense but linux is growing rapidly

[golden zenith]

same here... still trying to learn it though

[proven sundial]

Won't be too long

[stray umbra]

IT WORK

[patent shoal]

yeah but since Im working with propriertary things, if it doesnt have support on linux, I fucked up.

[stray umbra]

IT FINALLY WORK

[proven sundial]

Got it got it well dual booting is always an option

[patent shoal]

oh, I got dedicated device for linux instead

[golden zenith]

i got a 20y/o pc to learn it

• a home lab in case

[toxic atlas]

Go through a Gentoo installation

[proven sundial]

Have to start somewhere

[patent shoal]

I bet Ign0rES already setup a basic router and pihole + dns at some point

[proven sundial]

Took me 32 min for it

[vernal hawk]

That works as well I guess.
May i ask what obstacles holds you back on Linux atm?

[patent shoal]

im still looking for alternative (just to play with) for OPNSense for build your own router solution

[patent shoal]

I used a software (for work) that doesnt have support on linux atm, and the software maker wont add linux support atm

thats on software side

[toxic atlas]

OpenWRT works fine even without the Wi-Fi component

[vernal hawk]

I see.
You had expect they had give you a work PC/Laptop for that... oh well lol

[patent shoal]

on hardware side, imo linux prefer a custom hardware like PC desktop instead of laptop (specifically gaming laptop)

idk why but I cant setup linux properly specifically on Asus gaming laptop

[patent shoal]

yeah

[toxic atlas]

Some laptop manufacturers are just ass

[patent shoal]

yeah

[toxic atlas]

Dell is hella guilty of that

[blissful lance]

I just had an error where my game crashed, but instead of completely freezing my computer and forcing me to restart, I was able to end the game process.

Fun part is that after ending the process, I got an error that my SSD was unavailable 😄

This game is so broken 😄

[vernal hawk]

probably driver issues. Laptop's have a lot of custom stuff going on.
There is solutions to everything, just a bit more work.

[patent shoal]

yeah, im sticking with linux on desktop atm

on laptop I use windows for ease of use and no tinkering needed

[patent shoal]

the game make ur ssd disappear ?

[toxic atlas]

You could check out the arch wiki with your exact laptop model, see if there's a support page for it with what works what doesn't

[vernal hawk]

I do have Linux on my Laptop too but thats how I can tell its extra work.
ArchWiki is a good source even for Non-Arch users on this stuff.

[blissful lance]

yup. After a restart it came back tho so no worries

[toxic atlas]

Sounds like that windows bug with beta firmware drives

[vernal hawk]

That makes me wonder whatever crashed first, the game or the SSD.

[blissful lance]

this has never happened in any other game before

[vernal hawk]

cuz if your SSD just randomly commited not feeling so good, the game will obviously crash. But then it wasn't the games fault

[patent shoal]

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ASUS_ROG_Zephyrus_Duo_15_GX550

well they have a page for that

[blissful lance]

and it's a samsung ssd with updated firmware

[patent shoal]

but not quite my model

so

[blissful lance]

so unlikely that its the 2025 ssd issue

(or whenever it happened)

[patent shoal]

did u tinker with low level nvme driver (new windows things) ?

[blissful lance]

nope

[patent shoal]

but it shouldnt cause any problem since I already use it

ah, then its different problem

[blissful lance]

I mean, usually the game freezes my pc and crashes my GPU driver 😄 This time was a bit different 😄

[proven sundial]

Weren't you the person that had slow access times

[blissful lance]

So if it is a problem with my pc, it's deeper than the SSD 😄

[blissful lance]

emmm, no

I posted 1 or 2 days ago about my installation getting corrupted often

[proven sundial]

Fair enough

Have you monitored in the windows event viewer

What error it gave ?

[blissful lance]

Looking at it now...

[blissful lance]

A lot of disk related entries. A bunch or warnings about failing a paging operation and this error about a driver error

Could try disabling paging on this drive...

[proven sundial]

Don't disable paging

You'll make it worse

[blissful lance]

worse how? 😄

[golden zenith]

i think you giving me too much credit, for now i had OPNsense running just to test. i did want a pi hole but i already screwed up my proxmox setting & setup to the point of FUBAR. im planning to reset in the future.

[proven sundial]

It will cause the drive to deteriorate

We don't want that

Which drive is it again ?

[patent shoal]

but its fun to tinker with that network things

[blissful lance]

Can also try switching from pcie 4 to 3

Samsung 990 pro

[patent shoal]

isnt openwrt only for a router device ? not for a custom built or (mini pc)

[proven sundial]

Do you have over provisioning enabled on the ssd ?

[rancid loom]

so I tested it out. nothing's wrong rn

[golden zenith]

i agree... other ppl using the network so i cant just delete it

[rancid loom]

wait no why would you revert to a slower PCIe version if it works fine on 4?

[patent shoal]

ahh, u didnt set up a backup line yet ? so if u purge the current configuration u can use the backup one for temporary use

[blissful lance]

no

[proven sundial]

You should

[patent shoal]

[golden zenith]

yup, like i said FUBAR

[blissful lance]

to see if it fixes the issue

[blissful lance]

not related to this problem

[proven sundial]

Alright do as you wish

[golden zenith]

oh well.... my plan is to learn linux now before fixing my home lab.... it chaos at this point

[patent shoal]

its normal then

[proven sundial]

We got another Pebcak

[golden zenith]

you not wrong there

[patent shoal]

since imo, if I dont saw any trouble / issue for a while, I bet that something troublesome will come

its like

calm before the storm

[golden zenith]

oh i know.... dw

[proven sundial]

I'm always prepared for issues haha

My mind never rests

[rancid loom]

I've been wondering, how do I overprovision my NVMe? or is it even capable of doing so?

[proven sundial]

Every sata and nvme sdd can do it

[golden zenith]

any ssd drives can be overprovision

[rancid loom]

so how do I know if it is overprovisioned?

[proven sundial]

Check your partitions

Also check your ssd model

[rancid loom]

Lexar NM610 Pro

[golden zenith]

dont copy mine, all those black unallocated are overprovision

[proven sundial]

Ah dram less

[rancid loom]

ye

[proven sundial]

Best to over provision 10 percent

[rancid loom]

so wait I put in some unallocated space?

[proven sundial]

Yup

[rancid loom]

oh.....

what do I do with the unallocated space tho?

just leave it unallocated?

[golden zenith]

nothing, dont touch them

[proven sundial]

Nothing the ssd will automatically use it as a buffer

[rancid loom]

got it

[proven sundial]

And as a speedup sector

Also prevents your ssd from degrading faster than usual

It's a win win

[patent shoal]

is that a must ?

i thought it already auto managed by the ssd itself

[proven sundial]

It only over provisions small amount without manually assigning

But that's not really good in the long term

[patent shoal]

ah

well, Im gonna applied it on new ssd then SOON™

[rancid loom]

aight

[short ridge]

[proven sundial]

What the hell boy

[drowsy cipher]

500kb/s
oof

[rancid loom]

wait is it 10% of my total space or is it of my total available space?

[golden zenith]

Total

[rancid loom]

guy is suffering from isp hell

[rancid loom]

aight

[short ridge]

I took like 2 days to install where winds meet on here once

[proven sundial]

Shiiitt

[golden zenith]

dammm

[proven sundial]

I really wish i could share some internet

[golden zenith]

same here

[drowsy cipher]

im never going to move anywhere without gigabit fiber ever again

[short ridge]

The millisecond i get a job i am getting better wi fi cuz this can NOT continiue man😭

[drowsy cipher]

wifi aint going to help your landline bro

[proven sundial]

They are not giving us Gigabyte ethernet

Scammers

😂

[short ridge]

Well i need a better internet anyway and then i will probably also get a ethernet cable sooo

[drowsy cipher]

so no wifi involved at all. why say it then

speak with precision and eloquence

[short ridge]

I need a better internet provider, which will give me better wi fi router to use for the ethernet cable so yea i am technically getting better wi fi

Nothings wrong with my message

[drowsy cipher]

i also want the ability to slap everyone saying their game "lags" when theyre having performance issues

[rancid loom]

done overprovisioning

[drowsy cipher]

those are not the same thing

[short ridge]

My download speeds aint great but i never have issues with ping

At least THAT

[rancid loom]

weeell the metric for internet providers always uses bit instead of byte so...

still a scam nonetheless

[proven sundial]

I know i'm just waiting for a moment to strike

[rancid loom]

oh btw just to make sure I did it correctly

[golden zenith]

look good

[proven sundial]

All good

[short ridge]

100mbps wi fi is 100GEL a month in here....

Holy shit

Wtf

I just looked it up

And thats the highest you can go in speed

[proven sundial]

You are sol

[short ridge]

This is like 40 bucks

[short ridge]

I am what?

[drowsy cipher]

in my opinion overprovisioning manually is snake oil but you guys do you

[proven sundial]

Jajaja i make servers for other people it makes a huge difference

For write and read consistency

[blissful lance]

SSDs nowadays have build in provisioning, there is no need to do this...
Also, SSDs are not that fragile anymore 😄
A better habit to form is to not keep your drive full so you don't wreck it's performance

You can even check the status of said feature

[proven sundial]

Shit out of luck 😂

[drowsy cipher]

providing servers and running a gacha client are entirely different usecases

[proven sundial]

Even on a consumer basis

It provides enough of a benefit

[drowsy cipher]

i have two identical drives, one overprovisioned manually and one not, and they perform exactly the same within a 2% error margin

[blissful lance]

overprovisioning does not affect performance

[drowsy cipher]

health is also the same

[blissful lance]

people do it to try to extend the life of the drive

[proven sundial]

You guys can think of it as you will i'm not here to change your mind about it

[blissful lance]

If we assume this drive was used 8 hrs a day, it's 5 years old and without any manual overprovisioning still 99% health 😄

(is my drive, I just took the pic)

[drowsy cipher]

mine have been powered on for an average of 23 hours a day over 6 years

[rancid loom]

this is a 2 year old drive iirc

[drowsy cipher]

damn

[blissful lance]

someone didnt clear out old partitions when reinstalling windows xD

[drowsy cipher]

yeah its an old disk i hooked up when i built this and never could be bothered to take it out

its dangling loose somewhere in the case

ill get an 8tb ssd next paycheck or so and then ill finally pull that bandaid

[blissful lance]

@proven sundial I might have figured out my game-crash-ssd-issue.
I had pagefile settings set to auto, but windows decided to assign no pagefile to that specific drive.
I could try explicitly setting it to enable the pagefile on each drive. Think it could work?

[blissful lance]

Do you have need for that much storage? 😄

[drowsy cipher]

well if you look, all my drives are nearly full

[blissful lance]

Wait. Thats almost 10 tb of storage already :DDDDD

Didn't pay attention to the numbers before xD

[drowsy cipher]

the most bothersome one is the one with 5.25gb free because the database running on it refuses to boot below 5gb free space

[proven sundial]

Standard pagefile on nvme is 1gb

[blissful lance]

Think I should set a minimum size instead of letting windows handle it?

[proven sundial]

You can try and see how it fares

[rancid loom]

welp as long as I can still use it. I'll use it till the SSD dies

[drowsy cipher]

[rancid loom]

in any case I did overprovision it so the wearing should slow down

[drowsy cipher]

i havent had an ssd die on me yet. one of my current drives is an hdd that ive literally had torrent clients running on for about 18 years and it refuses to kick the bucket

[proven sundial]

Every drive is worth gold to me

Dying is not an option

[drowsy cipher]

remember to seed

[proven sundial]

Having 32 TB of storage is perfect

[rancid loom]

that's kind of server grade storage wtf

[proven sundial]

Like i said dying is not an option

[rancid loom]

ye I understand why kek

[proven sundial]

Besides got em cheap

They all got dumped by the company

Because 95 percent usage was not enough

Who throw away ssds with 95 percent left

[drowsy cipher]

companies clearing out is always good deals

i made a lot of money reselling thinkpads

[blissful lance]

then are those enterprise grade or normal consumer ones?

[proven sundial]

Half are consumer half enterprise

[lilac belfry]

Hello!
I wanna ask, what does region affect exactly?
I've heard different things from different people so I'm not too sure
Also I'm planning to play on na server, since my friends on there too, how much will my ping roughly affected?

[proven sundial]

Still snatching up 8tb nvme drives for only 130 euro

[blissful lance]

😄

[rancid loom]

Region only affects your monetary transactions, not where you'll connect. The only servers available are either Asia or Americas/Europe

[lilac belfry]

Thank you

[rancid loom]

damn get me one of those

[drowsy cipher]

[rancid loom]

Your welcome. and fair warning. DO NOT USE PAYPAL

[proven sundial]

I'll wait for another dump

Will let you know

[drowsy cipher]

is paypal even enabled again? last i checked it was still "under maintenance"

[rancid loom]

I dunno but it's best they know what to not use whether it's enabled or not

[drowsy cipher]

only use paypal to send perlica 30k

[lilac belfry]

No worries
I've heard about it too, thanks for the heads up

So that's what the meme is about... 😅 (I missed the party)

[proven sundial]

I'm off going to change up my Cachy os

[short ridge]

Or i could get starlink, pay like 9k for the router system and then 300 a month for internet

[brisk jewel]

Daily sign-ins still being a pain in the ass....

[drowsy cipher]

daily sign ins outside of the game always suck and i wish devs would stop doing them

[rancid loom]

oh Hoyo does that for all of their games iirc. I'm surprised Endfield had that one too

and yeah it sucks

[drowsy cipher]

yeah i have a hoyolabs page open solely for zzz

[hazy venture]

bro that's not alot of rewards for signing in ngl-

[drowsy cipher]

i cant understand how people play genshin, ive tried it and the controls are just ass

[tall acorn]

isn't worth it imo

[drowsy cipher]

free stuff is always worth it

[rancid loom]

ye but they could've just at least put the free stuff inside the game and NOT outside of it

[tall acorn]

actually it is worth it

[drowsy cipher]

thats what i said earlier

but they want you to "engage" with their "wobsite"

[tall acorn]

honestly has some of the worst movement in any game

if "clunky movement mechanics" was a game, you'd have genshin impact lmfao

[rancid loom]

ye the movement just gets clunky for a while. heck Endfield has better controls and animations despite being on the same platform

I kinda wonder why, after all these years, Genshin can't even try to modify their Unity

they tried to modify their game requirements yea but not much has changed with their controls, animations or graphics

[drowsy cipher]

my booze delivery arrived, the weekend is saved

[dim hazel]

literally $50 and $200 for the initial dish, don't forget the $30 to not use their trash wifi and use an actual dongle to a proper router

[golden zenith]

if i remember correct, there a reason why daily bonus is outside the game.... but it china specify only

cant remember it though

[toxic atlas]

Can't have built-in incentives to keep playing

Considered "addiction-prone features"

[golden zenith]

ahhh

yea

[toxic atlas]

Though global shouldn't be affected, maybe they had the service like that for CN and just reused it

[golden zenith]

yeaaa.... it suck

[rancid loom]

guess they can't be bothered to separate global system's and China's

[toxic atlas]

More like lazy to implement a new system for global and just copy-pasted the CN one

Half the time I forget about the SKport login bonus

[rancid loom]

I don't even know there's a login bonus

[golden zenith]

oh there is

[toxic atlas]

It's like the OG AK one
Though on web, instead of in-game

[boreal wraith]

what happened here

[tall acorn]

..? is this a real tech issue? 🤷‍♂️ #contact-us

[boreal wraith]

I have no idea what I got

[tall acorn]

usually never do them, but checked it and realized it gave 14 1/5 pulls a year

[boreal wraith]

it takes 30 mins for the banner history to refresh

[tall acorn]

which adds up with all the other little stuff you can do

[brisk jewel]

As a total F2P user, every little bit helps.

[noble lark]

i just installed enfield in my pc and it installed norton 360, do you know why ?

[rancid loom]

this is tech support not flex support

[tall acorn]

where did you download it from?

norton 360 definitely isn't bundled with this game

[boreal wraith]

What part of my post made you think I'm flexing

[noble lark]

the official website

[tall acorn]

uninstall norton 360

[rancid loom]

The game isn't bundled with Norton

[tall acorn]

didn't come from arknights endfield though

[patent shoal]

sus

[rancid loom]

ye...

[patent shoal]

[rancid loom]

also...who the frick would use Norton given their reputation?

[noble lark]

idk it was installed today after i installed endfield

[tall acorn]

didn't come from arknights endfield

[noble lark]

weird i don't remember installing it

[rancid loom]

we understand. but it didn't come from the official website certainly

just uninstall it and be on your way

[noble lark]

i went to endfield website and clicked on the download for windows

[rancid loom]

can you give me the link to the website? DM it to me just to be safe, we don't want others clicking it here

and then I suddenly get a virus on my computer

[patent shoal]

and the dm came with

oh the usual scambaits here in Discord

man they've been running rampant

french holy moly

[noble lark]

wait i just remembered but i also installed msi afterburner, i think i clicked on a install with norton by mistake my bad

[patent shoal]

[rancid loom]

sacre bleu

[patent shoal]

this is why people need to pay attention when installing software in these days

[noble lark]

peak stupidity

[patent shoal]

I hate when they include a bloatware into an installer

[rancid loom]

also that link is the official website in french alright. And as proof that it only included the launcher when I downloaded

[noble lark]

i think it was an a default option when i installed msi afterburner, but i clicked installed and i tried to cancel but i guess it got installed anyways

[tall acorn]

[rancid loom]

probably when you tried to install MSI Afterburner, you just tried clicking Next and Next without reading if you were installing optional software

[noble lark]

yea i think i saw it at the last moment, but i didn't have the time to cancel

[rancid loom]

when I install something...the only thing I'm not reading is the EULA or ToS

everything else I will read coz they do this kind of atrocity in installers most of the time

[granite geode]

What is wrong with keen wuling detector? After using 4 reveal box on the map. When i get to the chest location there is no chest at all

[tall acorn]

there's butterflies somewhere nearby that you have to follow to unlock the hidden chest, @granite geode

[faint tiger]

Anyone know how to fix this

[rancid loom]

can you check game integrity?

let us know what happens after

[faint tiger]

got this now

[tall acorn]

use a vpn

[faint tiger]

But I never used one

[tall acorn]

change your DNS then

[faint tiger]

Aight lemme try

[rancid loom]

if you're on win11 just go to this section if ya wanna change your DNS manually

or you could just use the cloudflare trick

Though I had to put my laptop on turbo mode and fans sounded like a fucking jet engine, nothing a headset doesn’t solve though lmao

[rancid loom]

Sounds like Turbo mode meant Turbo fan mode

[kindred frost]

I didn’t know gaming laptops had so much stuff 😭

I open my gaming laptop for the first time and there’s like a billion settings

[tall acorn]

has all of the essentials that armoury crate has, but without the bloatware that comes with it

[tall acorn]

assuming you have it installed as something else will often times install it on certain ASUS laptops

lets you adjust the fan curve and a few other small settings

Not the butterfly, i mean a lot of chest in wuling keen detector reveal fake chest position

[tall acorn]

could you share screenshots in-game and for the detector for the ones you're encountering that don't have actual positions?

[rancid loom]

there are new mechanics in Wuling which Valley 4 don't have so....

Oh wait i think you're right about the butterfly, far away from the chest location

If you still need more memory, there’s no reason to downgrade to an unsupported old OS like Windows 10. On Windows 11 you can simply disable widgets (weather, news, etc.) and free up around 1.5–2 GB of RAM. Just run this command in PowerShell or CMD (as admin):

winget uninstall "windows web experience pack"

By the way, the app on your desktop looks nice. What app are you using? I have something similar, MyDockFinder from Steam. It’s the best dock app I’ve seen for Windows.
Check screenshot, all apps closed. After a fresh restart, Windows 11 uses about 1 GB of RAM. This is a licensed Enterprise version of Windows without any modifications or custom builds. Only widgets disabled.
Even the prices for lower‑end memory aren’t great right now, so I think this advice will help many who haven’t managed to upgrade to DDR5.

MORNING

[maiden anvil]

i dunno why but everytime i take a screenshot with my laptop it makes the screen extremely bright for no reason

my eyes

[drowsy cipher]

first thought is some kind of HDR issue

[storm cairn]

the uh

ye

but its snipping's HDR

[tall acorn]

i don't think this is HDR, but you should be able to go here to fully disable HDR on your laptop

[radiant ermine]

so uhh i found the issue its kinda gamebreaking

[dim hazel]

unsupported OS

[tall acorn]

check reliability monitor for error codes, @radiant ermine

[dim hazel]

guess ESU and Long Term Service Channel do not exist

[tall acorn]

W10 being "unsupported" is a great reason to downgrade alone for me

means you won't get spoonfed shit updates that introduce random bugs and vulnerabilities to the OS every single month

or just brick your entire computer
