[agile tusk]

the "update"

. nightmare of a version known as 1.1 launch with game breaking bugs and all. but credit where its (not) due, 595.71 really did break a lot of games

[tall acorn]

a user here reported custom fan controls not working when using 595.xx drivers, not on .59

[dawn python]

For mac user, endfield is running perfectly via playcover now

Visual quality is so much similar to pc version which is quite amazing

[mental lodge]

I hope an official port comes soon

I was thinken of buying the Neo but like I won’t if I can’t play Endfield on it

[proven sundial]

Do not buy the neo it only has 8GB

[dawn python]

Official port will be heavier i guess

Neo is fine if you just play endfield

U need a controller btw. On screen key maping is terrible

8Gb on macos is different from 8Gb on windows

[proven sundial]

I am not changing your mindset i'm just stating

That's all

[summer pagoda]

You don't get it Xomori

It's APPLE memory

it's better

[proven sundial]

Mhm

Definitely better

[agile tusk]

you dont buy an apple neo to play endfield. you buy an apple neo for easier repairability (if apple doesnt charge a grand amount of parts that is) and for lightweight-use like education and work that doesnt require anything past excel

[dawn python]

Not sure how many of u guys here have been using macos but it is really good at managing memory

[agile tusk]

i am typing this message on an M4 Macbook Pro

ive used macos since 2014

macbook neos are running on an A18 chip, not the same as the M series

[mental lodge]

I mean, I do a check up list of all those things beforehand, Neo checked for the most part the important parts, however the will to play the games that I like is not there. But yeah I get your point

[dawn python]

Neo is very capable piece of hardware for the $500 price tag. The phone chip is actually overpowered af. It is just thermal throttling on phone

I believe u can find video on YouTube for game test on neo

[summer pagoda]

it also thermal throttles on the neo btw
you can slap a thermal pad in there and make it faster

[toxic atlas]

Huh
People actually believe that shit?

[mental lodge]

Someone tested it with cyberpunk and the experience was fairly ok

[dawn python]

Aint nobody gonna buy neo for gaming specifically but it can run ios version games easily. And absolutely not just running excel

[mental lodge]

Is not that is not the same, but apps and software is much more optimised for the Apple ecosystem to not use as much resources as other platforms

[dawn python]

I am using both and i say microslop is not doing so well

[agile tusk]

if gaming is not a priority, then why not i guess

[toxic atlas]

Windows is bad at memory management, yeah
But can't just say MacOS beats everything else

[dawn python]

I said macos was good at managing memory I didn’t say it was the best

[mental lodge]

Everyone knows the best at memory management is the Nokia N-Gage guys pfft smh

[dawn python]

I am also using arch linux but i am not linux expert so cant compare yet

[mental lodge]

I love tech and I love collecting

I don’t buy random stuff cuz yes

Normally I give it a purpose

[dawn python]

Bet u can run all mihoyo games as well as wuwa on neo as long as u use ios version

[summer pagoda]

can it run crimson desert?

[dawn python]

Ofc it can ||via geforce now||

[summer pagoda]

oh is it confirmed for geforce now?

another win for the koreans

L china

[dawn python]

Hot game like CD will arrive to gfn anyway

Gonna torture my pc this weekend with that game

[summer pagoda]

endfield not a hot game

[dawn python]

I guess

[mental lodge]

Has hot girls and hot men

[river copper]

Endfield is a soul game

[agile tusk]

when kuro announced native macos version for wuwa i was so happy. wished the other companies followed through, but i know plenty of reasons why it didnt happen. its a very niche target audience and more platforms = more resources needed for support

[sudden sinew]

soul-like-ish yea, not 50%

[river copper]

not souls-like, but more for the soul

[dawn python]

You are correct. From project management point of view, if mac user base is so low there is no point on releasing a dedicated version for it since the cost does not make sense (low ROI). They prob wont enable the ios version to download from appstore either because that version does not support keyboard mouse and they want to avoid unwanted negative feedback (my guess)

[mental lodge]

I need your opinion on a case

[toxic atlas]

Playing the challenges under leveled does feel like playing souls, with all the dodging

[mental lodge]

Lit or nay?

[toxic atlas]

if it can bleed, it can die

[summer pagoda]

That g502 is LIT 🔥

[dawn python]

I prefer using bare phone but your case looks good

[mental lodge]

Thank you gang, my father uses it to play the hit game Arknights Endfield

[mental lodge]

I would but I walk around a lot of rocky areas and I already suffered from a few cracked screens already

Don’t wanna tempt fate on this one

[dawn python]

Yeah u should use case

It is nice to touch and hold without case but it is slippery af

At least on my 15 pm

[radiant elm]

your father is fire

[mental lodge]

Hell yeah I agree

[dawn python]

Not sure if it is any better on later models

[mental lodge]

It looks gorgeous at least the natural titanium but damn is it slippery

[sudden sinew]

agree

[drowsy cipher]

i like having a stand on mine

[agile tusk]

-# when P5X first came out, i downloaded it on the app store (i was miles away from my PC). it was only for iPadOS but surprisingly KBM worked then it would always crash around 20-30 mins of playing. i knew that even with the app store 'compatibility', the game itself wasnt designed to run on the laptops. a missed opportunity but alas, game development is already hell on windows, mobile and consoles. how much more on platforms needing native support on mac and linux... oh well, emulators still thrive. glad to see endfield run on an 'unsupported' platform

[radiant elm]

[broken swift]

"It's a one hand game tbh" said by a soul veteran (me)

[radiant elm]

i agree

[toxic atlas]

damn

[proven sundial]

How old is it anyway ?

[drowsy cipher]

hah

damn thats a lot of hours

[proven sundial]

What a nice ssd

[drowsy cipher]

the second one is an hdd i have to admit. the first one is my boot drive

[steel swift]

5 years ish

[drowsy cipher]

thats an m2

[summer pagoda]

My OS drive for 5 years

[dense bronze]

congrats

SSD drive prices is like 400% compare to September now

[dense bronze]

pro tip the more capacity on your SSD the longer it last

[steel swift]

I have another laptop if this one dies

Just dont have dgpu

[dawn python]

it is quite amazing that the ios version of endfield looks very similar to pc version unlike other gacha games. Wuwa on ios looks like shiet compared to pc

[mental lodge]

Guys I think is time to buy that 4tb ssd

[dense bronze]

yes

only cost a kidney

doesn't specify it needs to be your

[mental lodge]

It’s worth it, I don’t need my kidneys anyways

[drowsy cipher]

you got two kidneys for a reason

[summer pagoda]

[drowsy cipher]

once the AI bubble pop you can mob lynch Sam Altman for causing all of this

(for legal reason this is a joke)

[toxic atlas]

And here we have an old ass HDD storage appliance that's about to get sent to the shadow realm (DR site)

[agile tusk]

he also signed a contract for chatgpt/openai to be used in military stuff so u can bet my ass i'd be throwing tomatoes at him once this ai bubble pops

[dense bronze]

only tomato?

i'm sending him to Nvidia driver department

[agile tusk]

i cant say more cuz i will get automodded.

[dense bronze]

along with Jensen

[drowsy cipher]

@dense bronze here is your catch all

[broken swift]

118tb

[drowsy cipher]

well for 144 drives that doesnt seem to be all that much

[toxic atlas]

It's a late-2010 storage system
You needed Internet Explorer to manage it 'till I got my hands on it about a year ago and reconfigured to support TLSv1.2

And no, the Edge Compat Mode wasn't a solution

[proven sundial]

bruh

[noble blade]

been running into a very weird bug where endfield refuses to close at all, task manager says access is denied, cmd keeps saying no instance is running

[proven sundial]

i need to be less efficient with my writes

[proven sundial]

must be because the permission level is higher

run the exe as admin

[noble blade]

i did

both launcher and exe

i also ran cmd as admin when doing the force quit commands

[proven sundial]

in properties you changed it right ?

[noble blade]

yes

[dark tendon]

You might want to try to verify your game files through the launcher perhaps

[noble blade]

i tried that and it just kept on saying an instance is running and wants me to close it

launcher refuses to close the instance

[proven sundial]

any errors occur before ?

[noble blade]

nope, the play button gets greyed out and then nothing happens

checked task manager and it still there

[dark tendon]

Oh you can't even play the game?

[noble blade]

relaunching the game launches a new instance, basically makes my pc run 2 games

[noble blade]

i play just fine, but it just refuses to close completely

[proven sundial]

can you open reliability viewer via the windows search bar ?

just to make sure

[noble blade]

ah im no techy but i will check it

[proven sundial]

Seems very clean

[noble blade]

the bug happened just minutes ago

i just restarted my pc unfortunately

[dark tendon]

Do you close the game via the in-game quit button or alt f4?

[noble blade]

quit button

bug is also inconsistent

[olive steeple]

Hey guys, I updated the game launcher, and I feel my game feels more heavy and I have always frame drop after I updated the game launcher, it's not like this when I play the game before the launcher update, anyone can help?

[proven sundial]

Specs of your device ?

[proven sundial]

Repaired the game via launcher and in-game ?

[noble blade]

i5-9500
ddr4 16gb ram dual channel
gtx 1060 6gb
1tb ssd

[olive steeple]

haven't do that yet, thanks

[proven sundial]

does dx 11 make a difference ?

[noble blade]

i haven't tried yet as i've read stuff about memory leaks being related to dx11

but i will test it

[olive steeple]

i got a warning message that I need to change to directx launcher, is it okay?

[tall acorn]

nvidia driver version?

[olive steeple]

the newest one, wait I forgot to check 595.79

there

[agile tusk]

rollback

[tall acorn]

consult the functionality tutorial that's in the pins 👍

[proven sundial]

let me know if the permissions are still denied

[olive steeple]

so I shouldn't use the newest driver?

[tall acorn]

you should revert to nvidia driver version 591.86, as future versions are unstable and will cause issues

[agile tusk]

dont use anything 595 for now

[noble blade]

ah another thing that might be useful is my graphics driver version being 560.94? i never update driver as my gpu isn't supported anymore

[jagged zodiac]

Did they break the game with launcher update? It's forever stuck on "releasing resources" on PC. (Mobile works)
And also, tf is this doing in the game launcher?

[tall acorn]

you can revert in the nvidia app, or clean install by following the Nvidia DDU Tutorial that's attached to the pins

[olive steeple]

do you know how to get that version again?

[tall acorn]

@olive steeple 👍

[proven sundial]

a driver should not deny task manager from killing a process

so you're good

[olive steeple]

thanks!

it helps a lot 😭😭😭

[tall acorn]

it's just a different HG game

[olive steeple]

you guys are so much of a help, I'm crying

[tall acorn]

you can ignore it if you don't play it

[noble blade]

thanks i will try

[radiant elm]

you don't have to cry

[jagged zodiac]

Switching to vulcan solved the forever "releasing resources", ig they broke dx11

[radiant elm]

just come

[tall acorn]

yeah, it's decently comparable whereas most other games aren't

[proven sundial]

if you still can't kill it with repairs and all that there is always the super kill https://stefansundin.github.io/superf4/

[tall acorn]

PC originating games usually have broken and unstable mobile versions, bad crossplay/compatibility/translation between the two, along with the graphics and UI sometimes being terrible or locked to unchangeable settings which impact the user experience

[noble blade]

dang hope that works, this is the weirdest bug i've ever encountered in any game.

[pseudo pond]

Question, what driver of Nvidia should I revert to off 595 that is stable/good? & as for the revert, I can go only back to 595.1 smt

[tall acorn]

591.86

[pseudo pond]

Ty Zen

Do I just manually download it off website?

[tall acorn]

arknights endfield graphics for low-end computers, consoles, and mobile devices, are pretty good compared to 90% of games out there

[proven sundial]

i always use this to kill annoying games

like fallout 76

[tall acorn]

it's possible to revert in the nvidia app, download the drivers and install from the website, or clean install following the DDU tutorial that's attached to the pins

[pseudo pond]

So if I keep reverting via app

That will work? I've used DDU before lol too

[tall acorn]

yeah

[pseudo pond]

Alright sounds good

[agile tusk]

ah yes superf4 i love that app

[tall acorn]

i'd recommend using DDU if you encounter any further issues

[pseudo pond]

Will do, simple I assume?

Oh ye it is in pinned, nice!

[proven sundial]

don't use it on emulators though

[agile tusk]

oh

[tall acorn]

yeah it's quite simple, but the guide is somewhat long so it's incredibly clear for new users

[noble blade]

fallout 76 also does this?

[tall acorn]

download drivers using Nvcleaninstall onto your computer -> tick boot into safe mode -> clean drivers using DisplayDriverUninstaller -> install new drivers you downloaded previously -> done

[proven sundial]

sometimes haha

[tall acorn]

basically just download, safe mode, clean and install, and then you're done

takes me like 4~ minutes for the full process if i'm ever switching driver versions

[noble blade]

lmao good thing i didnt play that, this is already annoying enough, needing to restart my pc everytime i close the game

[proven sundial]

yeah some games just don't work

especially bethesda games

except doom

[tall acorn]

can't say the same for the downloading and playability issues, but the in-game bugs aren't as bad to where the game is practically falling apart

[radiant elm]

i heard zencrox got promoted to head mod

[proven sundial]

Gameloop has a new client soon

this is huge

[proven sundial]

the one i am testing is in beta but only devkits

just for wuwa

[proven sundial]

Back to arbeiten

i will die by a million cuts

[grand flicker]

for some reason game is stutering today with small freeze frames. was working fine yesterday. Gpu and and cpu both are below 50%. was there any changes?

[drowsy cipher]

did you make any changes? say, upgrading your nvidia drivers?

[grand flicker]

nope

should i upgrade drivers?

[dawn python]

u actually should roll back

the latest nvidia driver is buggy

(assume that ur green team)

[grand flicker]

yes using nvidia but haven't upgraded drivers for probably 2-3 months

[drowsy cipher]

then you should be fine on that end. gamewise i dont think there was anything that should have impacted performance

[dawn python]

download 591.86, use DDU to clean uninstall your current driver then install 591.86

[summer pagoda]

Have you restarted your pc

[toxic atlas]

Or just switch to Dx11

[grand flicker]

ok will try to launch with dx11 also noticed on reddit megathread i am not only one

[gritty portal]

Same after launcher update my game is stuttering , laptop 5090 😭

[gritty portal]

Did dx11 fix it cuz this stutter is unplayable

[grand flicker]

sec setting up turrets on essence spot to test

[short ridge]

@proven sundial regarding dlss 5, can the devs ONLY use it for the environment and not the characters itself?

Or is that just not possible

[summer pagoda]

nvidia mentioned a masking tool in the streamline sdk

but unless the gen AI runs better than RT then idk about using it

better for skin

[proven sundial]

Pretty much what we can choose is the kind of lighting effects it has and which filter and texture overwrides

but nothing fancy

[gritty portal]

Ok dx11 fixed it for me , I also miss the latest Nividia update, did you upgrade your drivers?

[simple bear]

is it just me or the game keeps on freezing/lagging randomly

[short ridge]

Do NOT "upgrade" to 595.xx

[grand flicker]

yeah just tested enabling dx11 made it better

[dawn python]

nvidia is vibe coding real hard

prob competing with microslop at this rate

[gritty portal]

Hahaha I heard it has problems that’s why I don’t update when things come out

[dawn python]

[gritty portal]

Try launching the game with dx11 the devs messed something up today

[drowsy cipher]

i think its very funny that microsoft and nvidia are getting very visibly upset over the slop label

[summer pagoda]

is there any other vulkan title stuttering to hell with 595.79

[dawn python]

595.79 will crash wuwa as well

[gritty portal]

Maybe more AI can fix it , just 1 trillion dollars more

[short ridge]

By the words of the NVIDIA CEO we gamers the "low lives" are all wrong and hes the only one right about using AI

[simple bear]

im new to these computer stuff how do i do thatt

[short ridge]

Click the three dots beside the "Play" in launcher

[drowsy cipher]

haha i remember the last time gamers were grouped together as low lifes and "gamers are over"

[grand flicker]

on launcher there is small button right bellow play

[gritty portal]

Under the play/launch button in the launcher you can tick a small box

[summer pagoda]

no crashes all week for me

[shrewd pike]

i reinstalled game but it stuck in there, what should i do?

[short ridge]

Or toggle the " launch with dx 11" below the "start" button

[simple bear]

thanks guys

[dawn python]

i was playing normally until i clicked to teleport to the event location and it crashed

even reinstalling the full game client didnt help

[short ridge]

It just had issues with endfield and some other games, probably nvidias sphaghetti code doesnt like the KLAC

[dawn python]

turned out it was driver fault

after 1.1 update of endfield it was also stuttering as hell and i thought the game was having issue but no, it was driver issue

sorry endfield

[summer pagoda]

but no issue with the klac in dx11

[short ridge]

Dx11 has its own seperate problems

[shrewd pike]

like for 5-10 mins

CF.WARP ain't really a VPN, more of a fancy Proxy service

Try ProtonVPN (free for one device at a time)

[dapper saffron]

vpn changes your ip (i think)

dns changes your internet security (i think)

ayo

[proven sundial]

too late yall

i snatched it

[sleek matrix]

wait chat my opera gx is now in japanese

[dapper saffron]

yes

[sleek matrix]

i cant read all this kanji yet

[dapper saffron]

vpn does that when its on

haha

[toxic atlas]

Play with your daughters lol

[sleek matrix]

this wont make it innacurate when it translates stuff right?

[dapper saffron]

makes your internet think youre in x place instead if where you are

[proven sundial]

Good idea

[sleek matrix]

wait then what does dns change then

[dapper saffron]

more of an access thing

like you might not access x.com cause you have y dns

[sleek matrix]

ohh okay okay thanks

[dapper saffron]

and y dns cant read x site

its not 100% what that means but thats how i interpret it

please someone correct me

[proven sundial]

Pretty much dns is changing your route between server nodes

[agile tusk]

@gritty ridge i alr got garf cart but thank you for the codes nonetheless, im sure someone will use them

[toxic atlas]

More like hoping you get another Cloudflare edge gateway from a different DNS provider

[dapper saffron]

I claimed a code thank you

cant wait to have friends

[agile tusk]

-# lemme add u rq

[dapper saffron]

[toxic atlas]

Also fun fact
If you're not at your PC
You can redeem game codes as steam wallet codes from the app/website and it'll work

WHY IS ENDFIELD LAGGING SO BAD IN WULING

[silk jackal]

guys i heard duet night abyss installs a malware in your pc

[toxic atlas]

No their security is shit and someone managed to RCE into the game servers and from there into game clients

[dapper saffron]

aye what

Windows 11 is sending your gameplay data to Microsoft in real time.

It's called "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" and it uses your CPU WHILE you game stealing FPS and resources from your game.

Services.msc → find "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" → Disable

X · Mar 19, 2026, 8:37 AM

why is these popping up in my feed

[dapper saffron]

man, thankfully my laptop sucks, id have tried more gachas

dont wanna have my info stolen again

[silk jackal]

thank god im too picky with my games as well

[proven sundial]

Just use O and O shutup

easier

to disable all the telemetry

[silk jackal]

what is that

[proven sundial]

https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10

[dapper saffron]

what does that do

i had my stuff stolen from a malware on a company pc

and now im skeptical of everything

[proven sundial]

it stops your pc from sending data all over the place

and well takes back resources in the process

[silk jackal]

its a freeware

should be safe then

[dapper saffron]

do you happen to have anything that like

disables unneeded windows things

[toxic atlas]

Or LTSC

[proven sundial]

well that can happen later haha

[silk jackal]

xomori should i follow the recommended ones?

[proven sundial]

recommended is the go to the rest you can fiddle with on your own accord

[silk jackal]

i feel like im stepping on a landmine using this

ill hold this till im free, i dont want my laptop having a problem now, i have a test tomorrow

[dapper saffron]

hmm do you guys know windows things

i kinda have this lingering problem on windows

[proven sundial]

every option is described btw orayt

[dapper saffron]

actually is it okay to ask here

[proven sundial]

so you can read it thoroughly

[dapper saffron]

ah no

[toxic atlas]

Yeah, ask away

[silk jackal]

yeah i know but i dont know exactly would it do at the moment, so ill just hold it for now, i got some important stuff to do tomorrow

[agile tusk]

i had that game installed in epic like 3 months ago and then i stopped bc i cannot do grindy games thats akin to warframe... but wow

[dapper saffron]

my laptop keeps having windows crashes when i open, then rarely while running

[silk jackal]

crazy save

[toxic atlas]

BSOD?

[dapper saffron]

i had tried a few fixes then i reinstalled windows too but its persisting

its different things each time

[toxic atlas]

I stopped playing DNA when they shoved ACE in the 1.1 update without any warnings and broke it for my Linux setup at the time

[dapper saffron]

im hoping its not hardware thing

[toxic atlas]

Too bad tbh
Story was interesting

[agile tusk]

it disables tracking stuff (and more). dw i tried and tested it out. my pc didnt explode or anything. after the required restart, your pc should run normally. heck, itll run better

[silk jackal]

noted ill just do it tomorrow

studying for my fluids test now

[proven sundial]

Just don't let my physically access your pc

otherwise magic will occur

[silk jackal]

sorry what

[proven sundial]

magic like this

[silk jackal]

sadly my specs cant reach it

[drowsy cipher]

Xomori is rokos basilisk

[silk jackal]

i hate myself

[dapper saffron]

its gottento a blue screen where i look for things to fix the pc or it looks for ways to fix it

i remember something something kernel

[sudden sinew]

[sudden sinew]

you're an architect, build your own system structure, let others code it and enjoy your system

[proven sundial]

SHHHH

[toxic atlas]

How about in event viewer? Check see what the BSOD error and crashed module was

[proven sundial]

[silk jackal]

when i became an architecture?

[sudden sinew]

was /j

[silk jackal]

architecture????

[sudden sinew]

/j

[silk jackal]

still havent realised the mistake XDDDD

[agile tusk]

oh thats not good..

[silk jackal]

[toxic atlas]

That's the post-crash

Find the before

[dapper saffron]

where to look

[sudden sinew]

mistaken "engineer" with architect

and doub mistake architect (person) w/ architecture (object)

[toxic atlas]

https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html
You can use a tool like this if it doesn't show up in the event viewer properly

[silk jackal]

THERE WE GO

[drowsy cipher]

i can intuit your secrets

[sudden sinew]

[proven sundial]

my masterplan is not ready yet

Rhetoric is supposed to release next week

[dapper saffron]

it says its only up to windows 10

[toxic atlas]

It works on 11 as well

[dapper saffron]

how do i import the files for nirsoft to see?

[toxic atlas]

It should just find them

[dapper saffron]

mines empty

[toxic atlas]

Then those are not blue screens, but sudden shut-offs

Which means possibly bad PSU

[sudden sinew]

@dapper saffron can you please give a check in event viewer please?

[toxic atlas]

They only have the post-crash kernel recovery entries

No bugcheck entries

[sudden sinew]

lol

no journal

[dapper saffron]

the ones with the singles are the crashes

the ones with multiples are exes stopping

[sudden sinew]

seems like we can somehow start from there

hmm

[dapper saffron]

game crashes

i tried understanding this part but i couldnt

[sudden sinew]

may I ask when did the system crashes? after or before game crashes?

[dapper saffron]

almost always when i open up the laptop

never really crashed the laptop when games crashes

[sudden sinew]

ok

[dapper saffron]

rarely while im in a zoom meet

[sudden sinew]

may I ask which specs does your laptop have?

[dapper saffron]

its bad

lol

7320U 8GB

[sudden sinew]

8GB ram?
also 7320U is ryzen 3 iirc

[dapper saffron]

yeah

[sudden sinew]

hmmm

[dapper saffron]

i have tried a fresh windows install

but it happens again

so im actually scared its the hardware giving out

[sudden sinew]

looks like you can have a try with living on linux xD

[dapper saffron]

ive actually considered

[sudden sinew]

with windows for sure

[tall acorn]

double click on the windows failures, check for a minidump

[tall acorn]

a hardware failure won't get solved just by moving to linux

[sudden sinew]

looks like that endministrator got a memory leak

[tall acorn]

somewhere above

[sudden sinew]

well yesn't

[sudden sinew]

according to the specs and the amount of ram without extra vram

and the event viewer

[sudden sinew]

not if you don't ger used to linux and made a wrong move

yes if you know how linux works, and linux works well on 8GB than windows

[tall acorn]

actually crazy

i haven't been keeping up with that game at all honestly

[dapper saffron]

there was 2

[tall acorn]

is there anything overclocked in your system?

[dapper saffron]

i dont think so?

i never tried to, but how would i find out?

[sudden sinew]

page fault

looks like ram got issues

[dapper saffron]

wait is this over clocked

[sudden sinew]

iirc U processors don't have OC

[sudden sinew]

no

[dapper saffron]

i see

[dapper saffron]

[tall acorn]

just boot into your BIOS and check for an enabled EXPO/XMP/DOCP profile setting

[dapper saffron]

ram is soldered

[sudden sinew]

https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/laptop/ryzen/7000-series/amd-ryzen-3-7320u.html

[tall acorn]

laptop?

[dapper saffron]

yeah

[sudden sinew]

that's why I only buy laptops I know I can do a long journey with these xD

[dapper saffron]

i got it from a friend

[sudden sinew]

I see

a gift

treasure it

[dapper saffron]

so i cant really complain

yeah

thats why im tryna find a way to fix

[sudden sinew]

also, if you got a new one, make good use of the current laptop, like you can make it a storage or a good (minecraft, file, ...) server

[dapper saffron]

imma go check bios

my sister needs a laptop too so i might just pass it on instead

we cant really afford anything

[sudden sinew]

oh ok

[sudden sinew]

I see...

[steel swift]

8GB isn't enough

[tall acorn]

speaking of games practically falling apart..

8GB is enough to play the game, but isn't recommend for any modern game if you want a decent experience

[sudden sinew]

Agree you, but I'd not go like that

[broken swift]

8gb is enough for Endfield tho

[dapper saffron]

i went from 4gb and its night and day

[golden zenith]

oh dear.... Page Fault & a soldered RAM

[broken swift]

I can confirm it's running quite smooth (30+fps) on my 7530u 8gb

[broken swift]

40gb page file

[sudden sinew]

pg fault comes from RAM

and ddr5 on 8G

[golden zenith]

is usually RAM issue... might want to memtest tbh

problem is the "soldered" RAM

[sudden sinew]

you'd cope on windows

[unkempt plover]

try software side solutions first.
sfc /scannow
ram test like memtest
clean driver install

[sudden sinew]

regardless soldered or not

[dapper saffron]

am stuck on bios password

[sudden sinew]

wtf

[dapper saffron]

i forgot what i did

[golden zenith]

[dapper saffron]

when i accessed

[golden zenith]

ohhh dear.... someone set UEFI pass on that

[broken swift]

"More profit"-laptop brands

[sudden sinew]

time to find a bios reset way

[golden zenith]

just pray it not faulty....

else just RMA

[tall acorn]

ram test like memtest

[dapper saffron]

im in

[tall acorn]

just throw your account password in there

[dapper saffron]

i know i remember setting a password but i forgot

i just used an online thing

[golden zenith]

19 Mar 2026 Patch Nothing Note

[toxic atlas]

Could also be fuck-up by chipset driver

[dapper saffron]

where do i see this

[tall acorn]

first page probably

🤷‍♂️

[toxic atlas]

Soldered systems don't have ram/oc options

So that's a red herring

[dapper saffron]

am i looking at the bios

[golden zenith]

could be.... im thinking it most likely defective RAM

but who to say

[tall acorn]

laptops are commonly fairly limited in BIOS settings too

[golden zenith]

just hw test at this point

[toxic atlas]

I'd recommend a memtest
And if nothing shows up, windows being windows

[dapper saffron]

i did memtest in the past

i saw nothing

ill go retry

[golden zenith]

memtest86?

[toxic atlas]

That's an old bios...

[broken swift]

That bios looks ancient...

[dapper saffron]

i knowwwwww

[dapper saffron]

yeah

[golden zenith]

okay... most likely windows

windows being windows

[terse stirrup]

has there been anything about this thing

I notice it causes a somewhat minor stutter then the game runs fine but

[broken swift]

If your bios has "user scenario", try setting it to performance

[toxic atlas]

Not a game crash, but WebView Engine (browser screens within' the game)

[silk jackal]

what the heck is this

[golden zenith]

oh... their other game

[sudden sinew]

U processors....

[proven sundial]

https://giphy.com/gifs/female-mc-endministrator-absolute-gugu-gaga-LwaoVZAh5k0nFiPS6a

[broken swift]

Acer nitro also has the same ancient bios

[toxic atlas]

BIOS version
Not look

[silk jackal]

weird seeing a laptop worse than mine

[sudden sinew]

the EVO-X2 on UI too

[dapper saffron]

there are no advances

[golden zenith]

2022 bios vers....

[toxic atlas]

https://www.acer.com/us-en/support/product-support/A315-24P/NX.KDESP.004/downloads?sn=NXKDESP0043100D2073400

Here

Download latest bios and install

[dapper saffron]

oh no

bios install

[broken swift]

Chill. Even if the power is out, you still have the battery

[toxic atlas]

You have the release version of the bios for your laptop, basically 1.0

[sudden sinew]

1.27 to?

[dapper saffron]

which one do i choose?

[toxic atlas]

Oh wait what?

[dapper saffron]

1.27?

[toxic atlas]

Yeah, but wait a bit

Curious yours reports 1.27 already
But GOP is 2022

Could be worth a reinstall ig

[dapper saffron]

oh yeah it does show on the 1st page as 1.27

full disclaimer

i have never installed bios

[toxic atlas]

Lolwut
That's already on Steam

[dapper saffron]

should i reinstall

how even

[toxic atlas]

It's just running an exe, you'll be fine

Keep the laptop plugged in and run

[dapper saffron]

alright

this wont reset the files right

[sudden sinew]

bios version is 1.27 on their pc

and well

they updated

[sudden sinew]

update bios? no, unless you have a very special bios, worst case you can plug out ssd to go sure that it won't reset

but you're already up-to-date

so no need for bios update

[toxic atlas]

It won't delete anything on laptops

[dapper saffron]

[sudden sinew]

ik this too

[dapper saffron]

so do i reinstall or let it be

[toxic atlas]

Stop scaring the poor dude

[sudden sinew]

wha

[dapper saffron]

nah idm if it resets the files i got em on a single folder to copy

[toxic atlas]

It won't reset anything, it's fine

[dapper saffron]

[sudden sinew]

reinstall bios? no need tbh

[dapper saffron]

ill try running memtest again

[broken swift]

Updating laptop bios is much more safer than pc so don't worry

[dapper saffron]

i forgot memtest needs usb

[toxic atlas]

... Just update your chipset drivers and reboot
Path of least pain

See if that fixes it

[dapper saffron]

this?

[toxic atlas]

From AMD site or with SDI-Origin

Or hell just update all drivers with SDI-O

[dapper saffron]

ill try

[sudden sinew]

if it's beyond fix I'd recommend you using cachy, make your day light, and use Libreoffice via discover

what your 8GB RAM can do

[toxic atlas]

I'll ask Xomori to disown your ass

[sudden sinew]

whaaa

[dapper saffron]

[proven sundial]

DID SOMEBODY SAY CONTRACT FINE

[toxic atlas]

Speak of the devil

[dapper saffron]

before i forget i wanna thank yall

[toxic atlas]

[dapper saffron]

in case it doesnt work or if it does

[sudden sinew]

[dapper saffron]

fixed or not i have no choice anyway

[sudden sinew]

what's wrong with that distro...

[dapper saffron]

i actually was gonna do mint if ever

[proven sundial]

Nothing wrong with the distro

just fix first

[dapper saffron]

snappy driver not working

[sudden sinew]

that's a worse deciscion for your device compared to older devices

[dapper saffron]

ah

i know nothing about system things

[pale fiber]

my game is stucking on resource screen u see at the start of the game so uhm

[dapper saffron]

i just read some stuff and i try to follow tutorials

[pale fiber]

anyone can help or

[toxic atlas]

Just post screenshots and we'll guide you through using it

[sudden sinew]

you're at the correct place btw

[pale fiber]

yea this is tech support so I assume

[toxic atlas]

-# for community-provided support

[sudden sinew]

can you please elaborate a bit further?

[pale fiber]

it's simple

[sudden sinew]

-# yes

[tall acorn]

switch to dx11 and back to vulkan ✅

[pale fiber]

it stuck on te resource release(?)

[dapper saffron]

[pale fiber]

and it never went beyond

[toxic atlas]

HOW

[pale fiber]

yes I do switch vulkan/dx11

[sudden sinew]

speaking of the devil

[pale fiber]

yes I do reinstall game

yes I do clean reinstallation

[tall acorn]

restart your computer if it isn't working, and consult the functionality tutorial in the pins to change your DNS if it still won't finish releasing resources after that, @pale fiber

[sudden sinew]

which specs do you have?

[toxic atlas]

Like honestly I have never seen SDI-O crash

[tall acorn]

wait for 10 minutes+ on each step

[sudden sinew]

someone goes gambling today

[tall acorn]

@dapper saffron, what's your laptop model?

[pale fiber]

intel 520 8gb ram

[toxic atlas]

Aspire A315-24P
-# S/N: NXKDESP0043100D2073400

[pale fiber]

the thing is it runs perfectly before tangtang banner

[sudden sinew]

[dapper saffron]

okay it says 70 driverpacks

[pale fiber]

like buttery smooth

[dapper saffron]

on updates available

do i need all

[pale fiber]

after this patch it does not run anymore

so

[toxic atlas]

Install only the Indexes package

[dapper saffron]

done

[sudden sinew]

-# why tf are u mentioning their S/N

[dapper saffron]

[toxic atlas]

Now other drivers should show up in the mail app with "(internet)" next to them

Click select all on the left
Then install

[dapper saffron]

i check all?

alright

[toxic atlas]

Because Acer site requires SN for downloads/manuals

[dapper saffron]

do i want the restore point

[sudden sinew]

oh

[toxic atlas]

Nah

[sudden sinew]

F Acer

[dapper saffron]

okay i think i crashed it when i plugged in ethernet

earlier

[sudden sinew]

and assuming they BIOS-lock linux too

[dapper saffron]

now its installing fine i hope

[sudden sinew]

[pale fiber]

ok so I guess its my problem then

[toxic atlas]

How about you don't touch it during install and let it work its magic?

[dapper saffron]

[proven sundial]

Who said it is your problem ?

[agile tusk]

ur laptop needs to be in the psych ward the way it keeps on crashing out anyway let the installation do its thing fo rnow

[sudden sinew]

I'm questioning too

[sudden sinew]

[pale fiber]

it just kind of refuses too run but be4 that its kinda smooth running so

it is my problem now

[dapper saffron]

is it on log in screen?

[pale fiber]

no, alr logged in

[proven sundial]

Just follow what zencrox said if nothing works just dm me later

[pale fiber]

did

[tall acorn]

@pale fiber, switch your DNS or consult the functionality tutorial in the pins - #tech-support message

[pale fiber]

I did switch my dns

[tall acorn]

what's your region?

[pale fiber]

in game?

sing

server asia

[sudden sinew]

thought you're VNese lol

[pale fiber]

yea abt that

if I can I alr did

so back to the thing

I tried read the pin first

I did everything

so when I'm stuck I goes here to see if anyone have the same issues

not that I am trying to say anyone are useless, I am not that bold

but this thing was working before tangtang banner

solid 40+ fps, no fps spike

update came boom and now I have to play it on linux, which is worse than it is supposed to be

[agile tusk]

so stuck on resources releasing. intel 520, 8gb ram. switching to vulkan/dx11, and reinstalled game. doesn't work anymore...

[pale fiber]

yea

it just kind of refuse to play

[sudden sinew]

which distro are you using?

[pale fiber]

nobara

y u asking

im asking this on my windows lap

[jolly wyvern]

hi im the guy whoes client coudnt update, after trying to reinstall it, it now says error 56

[sudden sinew]

just to coordinate if game is workable or not

[toxic atlas]

Try GE if DW doesn't work properly for you

[sudden sinew]

ge+dwca (dwvk)?

[proven sundial]

Screenshot ?

[pale fiber]

im asking this on my windows lap

[jolly wyvern]

^

[sudden sinew]

did you change DNS?

[jolly wyvern]

whats that?

[sudden sinew]

domain resolver

something converting google.com to 172.217.23.238

[proven sundial]

weird before it was a download problem so must be connection related

[jolly wyvern]

idk what that is but i havent changed anything

[jolly wyvern]

my internet is fine tho

[agile tusk]

your internet can be fine and all, but it needs to be routed properly for endfield servers in particular

[toxic atlas]

GE-Proton can run the game just as well as DW-Proton can

[sudden sinew]

you know what "URL" is right?

[jolly wyvern]

yes

[sudden sinew]

a DNS (Domain Name Server) is roughly a "url translator"

[proven sundial]

just try it first and see

[sudden sinew]

it converts "https://google.com" to an IP adress like "https://172.217.23.238"

-# (source: https://www.nslookup.io/domains/google.com/dns-records/)

[jolly wyvern]

which one should i use? google?

[sudden sinew]

and sometimes DNS do not translate Arknights: Endfield domain for some reasons

[proven sundial]

try them one by one

no specific recommendation

[sudden sinew]

also no recommendation

[toxic atlas]

It depends on each country

[agile tusk]

different domains yield different results. quad9 works for me, so i just interchange between that and cloudflare's

[sudden sinew]

yup

[toxic atlas]

For Australia, maybe Quad9 or Cloudflare, in that order

[sudden sinew]

for Europe, Quad9 or Cloudflare, regardless of order
-# .

[pale fiber]

edit: reinstall windows/fix windows solve this thing

idk how

[toxic atlas]

Win10 or 11?

[sudden sinew]

-# ask microslop

[pale fiber]

10 ltsc

[sudden sinew]

oh

[autumn obsidian]

Releasing resources 0%

[pale fiber]

true I hate microslop

[tall acorn]

@autumn obsidian, #tech-support message

[toxic atlas]

We all do

[sudden sinew]

[toxic atlas]

So game straight up doesn't start or just bad performance?

[pale fiber]

well it does start

next thing you know I'm watching resource getting released on a loop

yeah that's my whole gameplay for like 2-ish day

s

[toxic atlas]

Ah, that shit

[sudden sinew]

rip

[toxic atlas]

I assume you already tried the usual?

• Deleting HGDownload & running game
• Restarting device & running game as admin

[slender berry]

[pale fiber]

if I tried and it worked I'm fixing my factory as of right now

but sad news

[sudden sinew]

smth occured?

[slender berry]

So regardless of some driver problems then my friend isn't the only one then
