[tired ivy]

So AMD refuses to launch for some reason

Ugh

Should I just delete everything and switch to Linux already

[soft comet]

What pushed me to do a full switch was: there was input lag using a controller for a steam game on the windows dual boot, there was no input lag on the linux dual boot. It was probably a trivial fix on windows, but at some point, recognize you are looking for an excuse to switch and just do it for any reason lol.

[tired ivy]

So it really was the EXPO profile

• Disabled EXPO AI, nothing
• Deleted AMD Radeon Software with DDU and rebooted, nothing
• Disabled EXPO profile, works

now running with 4800 MT/S instead of the advertised speeds of 6400MT/s

Fuck

And I deleted AMD Software

Fuck AMD Anyways it wasn't running

Apparently you can't run games on EXPO AI while AI Snatch is gone. lol

I haven't even downloaded AMD Software yet

Lmao I think Windows auto-updated once again

[tired ivy]

I'm just short on cash I'll dual boot too

BTW can I run my other games previously installed from Windows through the Linux Bootdrive? Is that possible if ever? I got all my Steamgames + some online games on one drive if ever

If I can I'll prolly cheap out on the drive

[halcyon mural]

The freeze happened agen

2 tines

[soft comet]

No, they can't share steam game download files as far as I'm aware.

[tired ivy]

But other games can be?

I play NTE on the same drive

if I can then yeah, I prolly can cheap out

I'll try to look up dualbooting and if I can share the same drive for games

Honestly why did the 6400 MT/s speeds become a problem right now

I couldn't tone it down to 5600, 5800 cuz Gigabyte AI Snatch was the only way

[soft comet]

To clarify, you can't point your linux steam at the windows steam folder and have it just use that. If thats what you are asking.

But yeah looking things up will answer most questions

[tired ivy]

Feels funny seeing how smoothing the game's running without AMD Software right now

[tired ivy]

RIP if that's the case

I think I can reinstall everything here tho if ever

if not this main boot drive

With my Linux boot

the games anyway

[knotty plume]

1tb for whole windows?

[knotty plume]

Because format driver issue? Right

[tired ivy]

Yeah my mistake

[wheat turtle]

Just delay windows updates permanently

Ain't hard

It will only install security patches then

[tired ivy]

That's why it's confusing

cuz DDU on Safemode should've prevented that, since they make it so updates are paused right?

How the fuck did it get through

Also reenabled EXPO while not having AMD Software and the game runs fine NVM it crashed btw

????

Fucking hell

running smoothly too

[pearl flame]

Is this count as bug?

[tribal sky]

Hi guys, Endfield on mobile is kinda blurry ngl even on the highest settings. Is this a limitation on mobile ver?

For context, the device I use is Samsung Galaxy Tab S11

[summer pagoda]

open the samsung games launcher and check if it is lowering the internal resolution of the game

[ionic siren]

endfield keeps crashing on startup xiaomi 15t

anyone got a fix?

i tried delete cache and repairing game files

[tired ivy]

delete data

Someone had the same issue due to HyperOS update

[ionic siren]

i have to download 24gbs again??

it worked after i restarted my phone

[tall acorn]

@merry meteor

[tall acorn]

have you hard restarted your device yet?

@tired ivy

[halcyon mural]

Nop

[tall acorn]

what's your battery life percentage and heat around the time of the crashes?

you can try restarting your device

[halcyon mural]

Restart done

[halcyon mural]

I did not notice that

[tall acorn]

let me know whenever you crash again and i'll remind you to take a look at it 👍

[halcyon mural]

Oke 🐧👍

[karmic cypress]

are there any news on the Discord reboots when playing endfield front? The Devs should notice that the anti cheat is messed up and trying to fix it ..

[tall acorn]

@karmic cypress, you can enable hardware acceleration at the bottom of the Experience -> Appearance -> Advanced tab, since it's been relocated

• Note: This may cause different issues for discord and during gameplay, such as restarting, graphical/timeout issues, decreased gaming performance, etc, changing if it's enabled or disabled.

you can disable the game detection and overlay too

[rich anvil]

I am even more disappointed with android tablets now. My friends 1000$ samsung tab S10 Ultra can't use an NVMe enclosure. How can they even market these as laptop replacements?! My phone which came out in 2021 can use an external NVMe perfectly fine.

[karmic cypress]

this does nothing at all. same goes for beta features, dissabled overlay, cleared cache and so on ... right at this point the endfield anti cheat kicks in discord keeps reconnecting until u start discord in admin mode 😉

[merry meteor]

???

[tall acorn]

could you try placing new pipes? - https://discord.com/channels/950244160684834837/1506357632158531584

[merry meteor]

Already tried that in another spot in marker stone. Some spots let me remove pipes, some do not.

I think due to hitting level 3 in marker stone messed with pipes that got stuck by the changes

Placing new pipes works tho

[tall acorn]

have you attempted to delete the entire pipe both in top-down and third person views?

[merry meteor]

Only in top down. Gimme a few minutes for third person view. Just woke up

[knotty plume]

[merry meteor]

so. third person view won't let me remove said pipes too.

[merry meteor]

great, right?

[knotty plume]

Yes, my zipline spot get stuck previously at least give us warning HG

[tall acorn]

could you share a screenshot or video of what happens when you attempt to remove the pipe?

if possible?

[merry meteor]

i get the pipe limit warning

[golden zenith]

might as well call it The Great Fence of Endfield

[tall acorn]

you can't select the pipe and move it elsewhere either?

[merry meteor]

just removed a factory with some pipes. it now lets me remove said pipes now

[tall acorn]

did you attempt this in the marker stone area?

[merry meteor]

removed the pipe now and adjusted the line.

[merry meteor]

yep

[tall acorn]

how many individual pipes were you able to create at once

[merry meteor]

as many as i could until i hit that limit

but the moment i hit the pipe limit, i could not remove those pipes stuck in the fence. problem is solved for now. so to speak

[delicate sequoia]

do i need to do something?

[wheat turtle]

en not really it prob gonna fix itself after a few days or weeks dont worry about it

crystal disk now can detect fake samsung ssd which is nice

[rancid loom]

reinstalled Windows coz the issue happened again

[wheat turtle]

what issue

[rancid loom]

the issue with the black screen upon boot after a long shut down

[wheat turtle]

oh

[rancid loom]

coz it seems the driver quacked a Windows component

[wheat turtle]

as always

[rancid loom]

which is essential for making sure the GPU driver gets loaded

technically the driver is the one that's quacked

but just to make sure that I do a clean slate

[wheat turtle]

btw i noticed for both amd and nvidia release more stable driver by end of the year instead of the rest

higher chance to be more stable

[rancid loom]

because more people complain and they accumulate the complains

[wheat turtle]

could be

[rancid loom]

midway thru the year they kinda don't listen

[wheat turtle]

or they purposely make trash drivers cards can die faster

the studio version 596.36 has higher voltage draw from the cable

is endfield survey up again

[crimson aurora]

For some reason my fps drops whenever Im opening tabs or windows on my PC while the game is up
even after I close them it lasts for a while until it randomly goes back ;-; does the same thing with low settings and my pc can handle the game

[tall acorn]

what's your current graphics driver version?

laptop user?

[crimson aurora]

i have a 2060 cpu is a 10600kf

[crimson aurora]

on pc!

[tall acorn]

@crimson aurora

[crimson aurora]

mb 🫡 this is the version

[tall acorn]

@crimson aurora

[dusty harness]

how do i turn off the framerate lock

[golden zenith]

if you talking about turning off/uncapping the fps limiter, there no real way to do so without breaking ToS

[dusty harness]

bruh

ok well i have another question

i just opened the game and i have not force removed the framerate lock and the MSI Afterburner is reading over 400 fps

[crimson aurora]

i think its fixed now! turns out i didn't update since jan ._. tyty

[golden zenith]

Most likely FG is on, im assuming you on a a 50-series nvidia card?

[dusty harness]

i have a 50 series card yes but what is FG

[golden zenith]

FG = Frame Generation

[dusty harness]

ah

[golden zenith]

aka Fake Frames

[dusty harness]

yes

thats what it was

[golden zenith]

it up2you if you want to use FG, just do know it has some pros & cons

[drowsy cipher]

with a 50 card it makes more sense to do supersampling or DLAA doesnt it

if desired

[summer pagoda]

In endfield I FG 2x to push past the 120fps limit

[proven sundial]

||or use a ram injector||

[drowsy cipher]

knee deep in the frameussy

[bronze fiber]

Anyone know why my game is taxing the HDD instead of ssd?

[proven sundial]

Windows superfetch ?

That could be the only thing

If your game is installed on an ssd

[bronze fiber]

I did the download and unpacking in my HDD due to storage limitation but then moved it into ssd and rebinded the launcher so that it recognizes the new location. But the game still runs from the HDD somehow, my ssd was at 1-2% usage while HDD was at 100%

But if i unplug my HDD manually... It actually runs from the SSD just fine

[proven sundial]

Then there are some files remaining on your hdd remove all of them

[bronze fiber]

Literally deleted everything. It was in a single folder.

Is there a file somewhere else?

Pointer?

[proven sundial]

Even checked appdata and locallow ?

Otherwise that should be everything

[bronze fiber]

Doesn't this thing only exist in main/system drive?

[proven sundial]

Sometimes there is a 2nd link from main driver to the secondary(slave) drive

But never hurts to check

[bronze fiber]

Alr lemme try

[proven sundial]

also make sure the path to your ssd is correct and verify the game integrity as needed

nothing else pops up in my mind other than those

[tired ivy]

@toxic atlas Forgot to ask but can I run Minecraft on Nobara?

Wait

Maybe it's useless to ask since I forgot my Minecraft is on Microsoft store

[toxic atlas]

Either with the official launcher, or with prism launcher
Both available as flatpaks

Just look for Minecraft in the app store

[tired ivy]

Ok, will do

[thin eagle]

what version nvidia driver the recommended to use for endfield for free stuttering issue?

[proven sundial]

specs and current driver ?

[thin eagle]

3060ti 32gb 5600x using 591.74 it doesnt have significant stutter but sometimes it stutter a bit

[proven sundial]

596.21 is recommended as stable driver for now

make sure to use either ddu or nvidia their custom uninstaller

[thin eagle]

where i can get the custom uninstaller?

[proven sundial]

should be on nvidia their website nvidia cleanup tool

otherwise use ddu

[thin eagle]

ook thanks will try that 👍

[proven sundial]

https://developer.nvidia.com/cleanup-tool

there you go

[thin eagle]

btw is there an oldest driver that stable
i need to balance Wuwa, ZZZ, Endfield, NTE and my concern is indeed Endfield kinda build different

[proven sundial]

i know wuwa runs alright on 596.21 and zzz but NTE is kind of broken as of now

with all sorts of drivers

[thin eagle]

the 591.74 run fine on wuwa, endfield tiny bit stutter not frequent, NTE fine but high temp, ZZZ stuttering

[thin eagle]

with this i dnt need to restart like DDU right?

[proven sundial]

the cleanup tool will normally still need a restart

but yeah you'll have to see if these drivers will be close to what you need overall

it won't be ideal on any driver really

[thin eagle]

right if its too old driver NTE would be problem
kinda want to try 566.36

[proven sundial]

up to you what you want to try so far my 5070 ti does fine on 596.21 on all these games

but yeah the NTE devs have a lot of issues right now with their game

so i would not blame it on the driver regardless

[drowsy cipher]

also on 596.21, NTE, ZZZ and Endfield all run fine (3070)

[thin eagle]

how is the temp no Endfield and NTE? got past 60C? is it near safety limit 80C?

[proven sundial]

did the 3070 get the variable rate shading on NTE ?

[drowsy cipher]

didnt check lmao

[drowsy cipher]

i think somewhere between 60 and 70? i dont usually run my games with performance graphs. honestly my cpu is the bigger issue with the heat

[thin eagle]

alrit lets try 596.21 if its borked i can go 566.36

thanks guys 👍

[proven sundial]

have a nice day fellow gacha-enthusiast

[drowsy cipher]

i am currently building "other" factories

[proven sundial]

another factorio bonanza ?

[drowsy cipher]

foundry

yeah i should continue my nullius 2.0 playthrough in factorio sometime now that its finally out

[proven sundial]

that's fair i was replaying the dead space remaster yesterday

sad they won't make a continuation

it was a really good remaster

[drowsy cipher]

ive heard it was good, yeah

ive been playing some motorslice as well, nice little 3d platformer mostly with shadow of the colossus bossfights kinda

[proven sundial]

interesting i'll check it out along with foundry

[drowsy cipher]

theres a free demo with the first level after the prologue

[proven sundial]

Sounds good

[drowsy cipher]

nextfest was a really good idea by valve because now we get demos again

[proven sundial]

i mean it's better for the consumer and the developer in the long run

[drowsy cipher]

yeah but demos were nearly dead for over a decade

[proven sundial]

i really missed demos

pragmata demo really made me buy it

it was enough of a experience to just make me confident in the product

[drowsy cipher]

yeah, the demo was a good introduction

the 3d printed nyc from chapter 2 would have been a cooler visual to end it on tbh

the "outside" sections in general are visually impressive in the game

[proven sundial]

oh yeah those really look nice well back to code checking

[drowsy cipher]

i hate how slow she talks in the dialogue scenes ahhhhhhhhhhhh

[tired ivy]

Korean's tolerable to me

Unless you meant her choice of word

[drowsy cipher]

well the game really doesnt like you skipping dialogue and combined with her slow speech im often really just waiting for the audio to play because i cant skip to the next line (playing in jp)

[tired ivy]

Ahhh, I play the dialogues like a scene so I didn't really get to see the skipped dialogue tbh

I saw some that were goofy from frens

[drowsy cipher]

i alwaysd get mildly upset when the characters names are different. in this case the character say "requiem" but the subs say "lacrimosa". its the same in ZZZ with Rin -> Belle and Chinatsu -> Sunna and whatnot. Stupid

[proven sundial]

yeah i always find it odd just keep it simple and clear and don't change it if it's not needed

[thin eagle]

upd: 596.21 for endfield is good and smooth
no stutter
fine temp at ok state DX12 dlss on super performance - balance more than that increase temp quite a bit
around 55C overworld and Dijiang around 47C at 60fps
for 120fps temp increase quite alot around 65C to 70C 👍

[proven sundial]

i'm not sure if fps limiting works now for nvidia gpu's

did not test it yet perhaps it may be a nice middle ground for fps and temps if you are worried about it

[wheat turtle]

im back

[rancid loom]

Hi back

I'm front

[proven sundial]

hi front and back i'm smack

https://tenor.com/view/chen-qianyu-chen-arknights-endfield-arknights-point-gif-2697620687880843963

[wheat turtle]

me getting cooked like a rotisserie chicken

and its 7pm

[toxic atlas]

Yeah but did you notice her name is an entirely different thing in the JP dub?

[tired ivy]

Why is the speed capped like that

[knotty plume]

Nvme external?, or just flashdrive ?

[tired ivy]

Trying to move files to install Linux cuz fuck Windows

Emptying that USB Drive rn

I'll prolly need help later @toxic atlas

[mild steppe]

My PC crashed 😞
Do the events expire today or tomorrow? I finished them but didn't claim the rewards. I'm downloading the game on my phone but updating is pretty slow.

[knotty plume]

That normal, what distro you planning use ?, cachy os ?, arch ?

[tired ivy]

Was thinking Bazzite but going for Nobara as per suggestion

I can't run Gigabyte AI Sn-atch, cuz that breaks Endfield

I can't run on my full EXPO profile, else NTE gets a lot of microstutters

And sometimes AMD Software just crashes entirely

[toxic atlas]

Bazzite can be a real bitch the moment you want something slightly more advanced
Since you can't touch the system files out of the box

[drowsy cipher]

i mentioned that a couple posts down. they do the same thing in zzz

[tired ivy]

Also Gigabyte AI Sn-atch is just shit in general

[toxic atlas]

Snatch ain't filtered here, that's just the NTE discord being weird

[drowsy cipher]

is that a banned word because you use the hyphen

ah

[tired ivy]

Yeah I read it's an immutable system, so can't modify stuff like a dev

[tired ivy]

Nah I'd be assed if I forget I'm in NTE Discord

[drowsy cipher]

Cant talk about Hideo Kojimas Snatcher there?

[toxic atlas]

No

[tired ivy]

Bazzite for gaming would've been good if NTE and Endfield was on Steam too lmao

But since they work on Standalone launchers, no good

Maybe if I still played Wuwa, but even then I'd need to install NTE and Endfield separately

[toxic atlas]

No? You can just play them both no issue

[tired ivy]

Is it cause users can't fix things on the fly?

[toxic atlas]

Discord quests are a pain on Bazzite though
Need to install Discord in a distrobox instead of flatpak for quest game detection to work properly

[tired ivy]

anyways just waiting 3 hrs more

[toxic atlas]

It's all in userland, no issues there

[tired ivy]

So I can still fix them on Bazzite?

[toxic atlas]

There's nothing to fix though
It just works, Faugus, DW-Proton, install and go

[tired ivy]

Aaahhh

Well I don't really do Discord quests

Wait

I just realized

With Bazzite I can't mod

[knotty plume]

I forgot to ask how to add dwproton on faugus

[toxic atlas]

Mod what? Steam games?

[toxic atlas]

Just install it for Steam in ProtonPlus

Unless you're on some debian-based distro
Then you have to move it into the proper path everyone else agreed upon but debian-based distros

[tired ivy]

Endfield

I mean other games

👀

[toxic atlas]

=_= don't mod Endfield

[tired ivy]

Fuck

[toxic atlas]

The fuck are you transferring shit over USB 2.0?

[tired ivy]

It's technically 3.2 but I think it's cuz my USB hub is 2.0

I didn't even know until initiating it today

[drowsy cipher]

that means its technically 2.0 instead of 3.2

[tired ivy]

I can't place it on the back

Will it be safe to place it on the uhhh

Bios Flash?

It has USB 3.2 still but has "Bios Flash" on it too

[drowsy cipher]

should be

[toxic atlas]

That port is red 'cus it's the bios flash port, it doesn't mean it's actually a 3.2 port

Also yeah it's safe to use the bios flash port for other stuff

[drowsy cipher]

might want to check if its 3.2 or 2.0 in the manual of the mobo

[toxic atlas]

Or just the spec sheet online

[tired ivy]

I know about it being the flashport, I just dunno if it can be used on other stuff that I needed clarity

[toxic atlas]

It's the designated "use this one if you royally fucked up" port

[tired ivy]

I know there's the 2.0's up there which I use for some peripherals

[tired ivy]

with a switch

anyways File Explorer died

[toxic atlas]

You said you got an MSI board?

[tired ivy]

Gigabyte

[toxic atlas]

Ryzen?

[tired ivy]

Yea R7 9700X

For CPU

[toxic atlas]

What's the EXPO-rated speed? Of your RAM

[tired ivy]

If you meant for my Mobo's

Oh

I had it on 6000 MT/s

For max EXPO speed it's 6400, but I can push for 6600 with EXPO AI

NTE ran smoothly. No microstuttering anymore at 6000

But yeah cuz AI Sna-tch kept crashing on me, I think that's what's killing Endfield right now

[toxic atlas]

-# please do not use auto overclock or EXPO+ crap

[tired ivy]

I htink I even saw on Reddit that other Endfield players had the same issue around launch

[toxic atlas]

Stick to stock EXPO

[tired ivy]

Cuz of higher clock speeds

[toxic atlas]

Not all RAM is made equal, stick to the speeds on the box

[tired ivy]

6k is the cutoff where 5800 below are the more stable ones

Anyways gotta restart

[toxic atlas]

Your memory controller's native speed is 5600

[tired ivy]

Well am switching to Linux anyway so I def won't be using it anymore

[tired ivy]

huh? But it clearly shows 4800????

When I disable my EXPO/EXPO-AI profile

[toxic atlas]

That's the base DDR5 speed

[tired ivy]

Ohhh okk

Anyways gotta restart and resume copying

[toxic atlas]

The CPU memory controller runs best at 5600

Anything over and you're applying a slight overclock to your CPU without realizing it

[drowsy cipher]

why restart just because explorer died

just restart it via run

[tired ivy]

I didn't know that was an option lmao

[tired ivy]

I don't have other EXPO settings and kinda scared to manually tune mine

[toxic atlas]

Just turn on EXPO and set the ram voltage a tad bit higher

Since some mobos completely fail to self-regulate that shit on Ryzen for some fucking reason

[drowsy cipher]

usually just clicking the empty desktop will restart explorer automatically. if win+r doesnt bring up the run dialog you can also do ctrl+shift+esc for task manager and do file -> run new task

[tired ivy]

I want the ram voltage lower tbh since I run 67-74 C

But I haven't done tweaks yet

Outside of the ones I needed

[toxic atlas]

CPU temp? That's completely fine for Ryzen

[tired ivy]

Yeah

[drowsy cipher]

my ryzen usually runs at 80

[tired ivy]

I guess so, that's basically my temps even when loaded

[tired ivy]

bruh

[drowsy cipher]

not like its an issue

[toxic atlas]

If I truly push it (code compilation on all 32 threads at once) I reach 90-95

But that's still fine

[drowsy cipher]

good old prime95 also does the trick

[toxic atlas]

Nah just compile any chromium-based browser

[drowsy cipher]

hell yeah

[tall acorn]

@misty osprey

[misty osprey]

yo

[tall acorn]

could you see if this is still happening for you? https://discord.com/channels/950244160684834837/1506626796169199636

[misty osprey]

yup, give me a sec

[tall acorn]

and could you try repeatedly verify the integrity of the files by using the Repair function to see if it resolves?

[misty osprey]

Still occurs, did 2 game integrity checks from luncher and like 6 repairs

Also checked if maybe i had something in AMD software but i have everything disabled except antilag which doesnt change anything, also if you need to know i have max settings 60fps no vsync

[rose ferry]

Veryifing my game files seems to have fixed my crashing issue. Thanks.

[livid stratus]

anyone knows if nvidia 596.49 is safe

[proven sundial]

596.21 is still the best one so far for stability

[tall acorn]

what's your current graphics driver version?

[livid stratus]

596.36

[tall acorn]

@livid stratus

[livid stratus]

Ok I'll set to 596.21

[tired ivy]

@toxic atlas so yeah what to do with that. I looked it up and it's about paging file. Would I need it with 32gb of ram?

[toxic atlas]

Swap is basically your page file as a dedicated partition

How much ram you got?

[tired ivy]

32gb

[toxic atlas]

Allocate 40 if you want hibernation
Otherwise, 16 will do as emergency memory

[tired ivy]

What's hibernation in this case?

[toxic atlas]

Basically sleeping the PC
But a full shut down

[tired ivy]

Ohhhh so basically the shit Microsoft tried to do with fast start up

It stores some of them huh

40 gbs or what?

[toxic atlas]

nah, do at most 16

[tired ivy]

I don't see an allocation tab for it

[toxic atlas]

there's no windows update shenanigans so you can restart & shutdown your PC freely

[tired ivy]

Btw do I encrypt system or what

Just noticed that

[toxic atlas]

you on a laptop you move around a lot and go out with?

[tired ivy]

Ah, fair question

It's not like my PC will get stolen

[toxic atlas]

if it's just an at-home computer, i don't really see the point of it

[tired ivy]

It's installing now

Anyways I'll AFK

A bit

[toxic atlas]

plus if you need a secret space to store stuff, plasma (kde) has vaults
aka pseudo-partitions you can create and put files on, that are encrypted with a password

[tired ivy]

Okk

Ok maybe I should've removed my USB before afking

This normal every boot?

Rather every uhhh

Bios access

[toxic atlas]

yeah that's normal, it's your bootloader

though that windows entry isn't
you got two disks and one got windows installed?

[tired ivy]

Also does it really say Fedora?

[tired ivy]

Yeah it did. I tried formatting the drive but IDK why that part never got removed

[toxic atlas]

'cus it's in the bios

[toxic atlas]

we can remove it later

[tired ivy]

That's from a SATA drive I salvaged

Maybe I could install another distro there

[toxic atlas]

no i meant the windows entry is loaded in the motherboard's EFI variables

[tired ivy]

Anyways does it really say Fedora for boot option normally?

[tired ivy]

Ohhh

[toxic atlas]

yeah, 'cus Nobara is based on Fedora
they didn't bother to change that part

[tired ivy]

Okk

[toxic atlas]

open a terminal and run sudo efibootmgr

[tired ivy]

After my boot

[toxic atlas]

yep yep, after you boot up

[tired ivy]

What next?

[toxic atlas]

sudo efibootmgr -b 0001 -B

this'll remove the windows entry from there

[tired ivy]

Huh

It asked me for my password

[toxic atlas]

well yeah
sudo means "do this shit as admin"

[tired ivy]

My Linux password or Windows password?

[toxic atlas]

your linux user password

[golden zenith]

Hi Max

[tired ivy]

Okk I thought Windows cuz I had a heart attack

[toxic atlas]

got a fresh look huh

[knotty plume]

Get new Linux user

[toxic atlas]

nah windows is gone gone

you wiped the disk

[tired ivy]

Anyways this is good now right?

[golden zenith]

yea, with a Memory_Management BSOD in my head

[toxic atlas]

yup, windows got removed from the bios boot menu

[golden zenith]

[toxic atlas]

it do be like that sometimes

[proven sundial]

[tired ivy]

Anyways I'll update stuff first then install the things I need

Btw I can't use my steam library installed with windows right?

[toxic atlas]

you won't be able to use NTFS (without some pain), if you have them on a partition or drive you didn't touch during install

though most games on steam should be able to run just fine (if you use an appropriate filesystem)

[tired ivy]

Oh

So basically I need to wipe it to some other file type?

[toxic atlas]

yeah
though you can move games you can fit on your boot disk first, if you don't wanna redownload

make a folder and move stuff in it before formatting
use kde partition manager to format the drive as btrfs

-# main problem is NTFS support on Linux is basically in beta, the fact it works at all to copy files around is a tech wonder
-# it's as if you wanted Windows to read a MacOS-formatted disk

[tired ivy]

Ohhh I can still move them

Yeah I can do that

This shit wiped clean of Windows anyway and

[toxic atlas]

if you don't mind redownloading, just format that shit

[tired ivy]

I messed up

Should've installed drivers first

[toxic atlas]

?

[tired ivy]

Instead of the applications

[toxic atlas]

you don't really need those, unless it's nvidia

[golden zenith]

what are drivers on amd?

[tired ivy]

Oh, no need for drivers?

[toxic atlas]

nah you on linux now
unless you run some really, and i mean really obscure hardware, shit just works

[tired ivy]

IDK why but the wifi just keeps disconnecting now that I'm on Nobara

That's why I thought maybe I need to update it first

[toxic atlas]

just update the system normally

everything through the app store

also set those

can you do an lspci and share the output?

[tired ivy]

Which segment you need?

[toxic atlas]

the network controller stuff
but there's no identifiable shit in the output, just lists what PCIe devices are active

[golden zenith]

might as well lspci > file.txt & send it here

[tired ivy]

Don't have discord yet

[golden zenith]

oh... right

[tired ivy]

Wait

I can open discord on browser

[toxic atlas]

or... install it from the app store and login with qr?

[tired ivy]

I don't see an appstore available

I forgot what it was called on mint too

[toxic atlas]

should be called Bazaar iirc

[tired ivy]

None here

[golden zenith]

what abt Discover or Snap?

[toxic atlas]

open the Welcome app

pretty sure it has a button for it

[golden zenith]

you know what... how about we install it through the website

[tired ivy]

Found it on Nobara welcome app instead

Also now I understand why I don't see it

Bazaar

[toxic atlas]

sudo lspci -s 0a:00.0 -v

just want to check if it's using the proper driver

also the built-in app store should be named Discover, part of KDE

[tired ivy]

Lmao I keep disconnecting

Idk if I entered correctly or if I disconnected again but yeah no response yet

It asked me for password but nothing

[toxic atlas]

is the ID left of the wifi card in lspci not 0a:00.0 ?

[tired ivy]

I can't use Ethernet too

[knotty plume]

[tired ivy]

It is 0a.00

[tired ivy]

No I normally don't use it, cuz too assed to route a wire to my room

[toxic atlas]

and you saying this doesn't return anything?

[tired ivy]

It returned something asking for my password

[knotty plume]

Just type your password

[tired ivy]

I did, 3x already

[toxic atlas]

hit enter after? lol

[tired ivy]

Lemme retry

[knotty plume]

[toxic atlas]

time for realtek shenanigans

[tired ivy]

So it needed me to press enter

[toxic atlas]

need to check something, one sec

[tired ivy]

Gonna restart first since the programs that downloaded finished

[golden zenith]

Server on fire

Teriderp

[toxic atlas]

nah that was last night

[golden zenith]

[tall acorn]

@misty osprey, what's your current graphics driver version?

[toxic atlas]

lsmod | grep rtw89

[tired ivy]

That's the feedback

[toxic atlas]

so my main issue is assuming everyone knows how to use vi/vim

[knotty plume]

If know you will stick into it

[toxic atlas]

sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8851be.conf >/dev/null <<EOF
options rtw89_pci disable_aspm_l1=y disable_aspm_l1ss=y
options rtw89_core disable_ps_mode=y
EOF

after that, reboot

[golden zenith]

the very friendly text editor

[toxic atlas]

just copy the whole thing and paste in terminal

will ask for password again

[tired ivy]

yea it did

[knotty plume]

How to close vim

[toxic atlas]

[Esc], [:q!]

[tired ivy]

I don't even know what vi/vim is

[toxic atlas]

and hopefully you won't need to

[golden zenith]

basic text editor, like what Max Said

[tired ivy]

oh lmao

I can't do alt + prtscr anymore

Anyways no feedback

[toxic atlas]

just printscreen will do

starts the spectacle app

[toxic atlas]

that's fine, restart your PC

wifi should be fine now

[tired ivy]

okk

[tired ivy]

Yeah it's not having disconnects now

[ionic siren]

what setting on mobile is responsible for blurry graphics?

[silent zinc]

I dunno if you still have the problem but without anything you can switch controller modes with long press of menu button and just works

[summer pagoda]

render resolution scale

[ionic siren]

can i increase anti-aliasing or is that not possible? the edges of structures arent lined up

[summer pagoda]

AA will look better at higher resolutions

[tall pagoda]

hi guys, is Endfield on Sata SSD okay?
Asking for my cousin

[summer pagoda]

yea, that's fine

[tall pagoda]

As long as it is not HDD

[summer pagoda]

the performance gap in gaming between a sata ssd and an nvme m.2 sdd is small

[golden zenith]

as long as it able to run tbh... but recommended ssd

[tall pagoda]

Well he told me Endfield lags which it should not on a 3400G and GTX 1060

so I checked and I could only see HDD as an issue

welp whatever Sata SSD is fine

thanks guys

[golden zenith]

if the hdd speed is slow, it can stutter

[tall pagoda]

yep hence why I said let us try with my spare ssd first

I tried running Endfield on HDD to visually see what it looked liked

My eyes cried

[golden zenith]

at least it only stutter, cant be worst than the shit i see before

[toxic atlas]

It's not necessarily on the HDD max speed, but the random access speed

Random access will always be really slow on HDDs

[tired ivy]

@toxic atlas speeds on wifi is slower, it's fast but it still generally gets cut off. IDK what happened

Got to installing this now too

Anyways I go eep

[toxic atlas]

install wireless-regdb with sudo dnf install wireless-regdb (if it isn't already), then reboot
iw reg get should return the supported frequencies and the country

[wheat turtle]

pretty sure that does not works since the d not capitalize

[devout cloud]

Can someone explain me why my GTX 1660 super got 30 fps default and my friend laptop GTX 1650 got 60 fps default? It because of CPU or something? I really need answers.

Mine is desktop

[wheat turtle]

nvidia app things

[tall acorn]

@devout cloud

[devout cloud]

yo

[devout cloud]

?

[tall acorn]

what's your current graphics driver version for both cards?

could you check to make sure they're both updated to the latest versions

[devout cloud]

latest one

i just update it yesterday

[tall acorn]

which version is that

[devout cloud]

596.49

idk about my friend

i tried older driver and didnt work

[tall acorn]

@devout cloud

[devout cloud]

yea i tried that

didnt work

[tall acorn]

you'll need to revert anyways as the 596.49 driver has issues

[devout cloud]

ok but i already tried it tho

[wheat turtle]

whats is cpu and your friend's laptop cpu and are you getting 30fps ingame or the dafault settings is showing 30?

[devout cloud]

mine is default 30 my friend is 60 both default

[devout cloud]

as i remember his cpu is ryzen

[wheat turtle]

default doesnt matter i have a 4070ti and i get default 60 fps when i can run 120 easily

just set the 30 to 60 manually

the default you get is from nividia app giving settings to your build

[devout cloud]

always 60 fps bro i play others games easy 60 fps but why this game

[devout cloud]

i see

[wheat turtle]

just set it to 60 manually

[devout cloud]

ok

hope they fix it before wulling it default 60 fps really annoying

[wheat turtle]

fix what defaulting you to give 60fps from settings?

[golden zenith]

[golden zenith]

Nividia app? Nvidia App 2 confirmed

[coarse bronze]

is there anyway of changing the game to show playstation ui instead of xbox as i do not know the xbox button layout well? I launch the game via steam and proton using the guide in this server as I'm on linux

[golden zenith]

i wonder.... does steam input works with non-steam game on linux

cause i know Endfield does have Dualsense support

[golden zenith]

try disabling steam input & see if it works

not sure too much on linux so i trying to figure things out

[coarse bronze]

nahh sadly not. controller can still pull up the steam menu but thats it so steam does have the input enabled. luckily some of my muscle memory is starting to come back so it shouldnt be to bad as long as i dont get xbox x button confused for playstations XD it was a shot in the dark question but always worth asking just in case ^^ Thank you though :DD

[golden zenith]

hmm... im out of idea then

[golden zenith]

@toxic atlas , can help when you free?

[wispy grotto]

do any of ur game just crash if u keep performing gear assembly and gear artificing?

[tall acorn]

@wispy grotto, follow these two tutorials 👍

• Click here to navigate to [[Reliability Monitor Troubleshooting]](#tech-support message)
• Click here to navigate to [[Windows System Corruption Fixes]](#tech-support message)

[wispy grotto]

so this did happen before?

[tall acorn]

you can probably resolve it by verifying the integrity of the files, but there's probably a different issue on hand as well

[tired ivy]

Worked, thanks

[toxic atlas]

Sure

[brave tide]

yo the dlss method doesnt work anymore any other way to allow the game to turn on dlss

[proven sundial]

The only other way to do it is wipe the driver with ddu and put it to read only with the method

Not much else you can do honestly

[brave tide]

Is it safe tho..sounds risky

[proven sundial]

It's safe but up to you if you want to try.
do i personally think it's worth it ? No

[toxic atlas]

Only wired use is supported at the moment for PS5 controllers on Linux
HIDRaw needs to be enabled in proton (which should be by default in DW & GE), and steam-input disabled for the game

If you got protontricks installed, you can check the state of the controller and how it's detected by running control joy.cpl inside the prefix CMD

DualSense should be Direct-Input, Raw Device

@proven sundial now that I think of it I didn't get to try the wireless functionality on DWP 11
More stuff to do at home tonight

[wheat turtle]

[fading slate]

ok something is really wrong with my laptop
How is it that bad 😭

[reef ruin]

Wait why fps so low

I know 1650 is bad but is it that bad

[fading slate]

it was not that bad most of the time

I should get 110+ fps around here and there

not here somehow

I think i just have a massive cpu bottleneck

[reef ruin]

Drive throttle maybe

[proven sundial]

3X framegen ?

[fading slate]

oh yea

it used to be stable 60 also

here's the not upscaled fps

not much of a difference yea?

so my gpu is fine

standing at the same place

[tall acorn]

what's your current graphics driver version?

[fading slate]

latest

[tall acorn]

@fading slate

[fading slate]

it is 596

[fading slate]

so do i downgrade to .21?

[tall acorn]

i'd recommend upgrading your graphics drivers to 596.21, as each 595.xx AND future 596.xx versions have stability issues, and it also fixes certain issues that are present in previous drivers 👍 https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/267157/

when downloading the drivers -> select custom installation -> clean install

follow the nvidia control panel settings guide after clean installing that's above this link after you've finished

[fading slate]

Hello Xomori my laptop got f-ed again

[proven sundial]

i assume the voltage regulation on 596.36 and 596.49 is still not fixed

since another person had the same issue

[fading slate]

Right, let me try to downgrade

Else i'll assume it's my cpu that's the bottleneck

the new map is soooo beautiful and intensive at the same time gg

[proven sundial]

newer 4000 and 5000 gpu's are not suffering but the gtx 1650 M is on the backend

[fading slate]

so lucky my 1060 on my pc stopped at 592

[proven sundial]

just See what 596.21 does it's a lot more stable normally

[rancid loom]

damn voltage regulation issues on drivers are some of the worst

[fading slate]

i know 40 and 50 is superior but i don't think i will upgrade to them anytime soon
just gonna aim for 3060 for now then my cpu (i5 9400f) then the gpu again (not soon)

[rancid loom]

if you can only go for that GPU for now then sure

[fading slate]

it's gonna still be 5060 i think when 90 come out

[fading slate]

i can actually

but i dont play anything that needed that much "power"

[rancid loom]

[rancid loom]

understandable

[proven sundial]

just when you do upgrade overshoot the performance you want by atleast 20 percent for longevity sake

[fading slate]

sure i can buy a 5060 right now but do i really need 2000fps on osu? (just a 2d rhythm game)
Also the i5 9400f still a thing to be considered upgading)
Hearing about the AI shits make me just want to buy 2 1080ti with SLI then enjoy my elderly life 😭

[fading slate]

So, UV?

What's overshoot?

[toxic atlas]

You mean 582?

[fading slate]

Yes 🥀

[proven sundial]

it's just better to buy a gpu that's a little more above your demand

and well definitely go with price/performance if possible

[fading slate]

my demands are (stardew valley)s

[proven sundial]

yeah but your heaviest game is ?

[fading slate]

I think A9e is the most intensive game i ever play

[fading slate]

just cs, osu, a9e and uhhhh

[proven sundial]

Might aswell aim for that then

[fading slate]

youtube

[fading slate]

the 1060 with OC already gave me 120+fps stable

It's just im not at home

had to stick with this generator with screen

[proven sundial]

I see well just make the logical choice then

[fading slate]

Do you think 3060 is still good?

for like, 2 or 3 more years

i do want to get the 1080ti and stop but i do need some RT things for my school projects

[proven sundial]

get the 12 GB version then

[toxic atlas]

-# the 3060 is a 6yr old card now

When the fuck did that happen

[proven sundial]

ah well

less upgrades overall happen now

[fading slate]

Ofc

But yea my demands are low

Mostly cpu intensives

I hate the rtx tax

[tall acorn]

@fading slate, what's your monitor resolution?

[fading slate]

1080p

u saw nothing

[toxic atlas]

Dude playing Mario Kart at some extreme speeds

[fading slate]

fr typing on the joycons

[toxic atlas]

What would 1080cc even look like

[tall acorn]

i wouldn't personally recommend going for a 12GB card which is already 6~ years old, and definitely not if you're planning to use it until it's 9~ years old, granted you can afford it

[fading slate]

https://tenor.com/view/puss-in-boots-spinning-flying-cartwheel-gif-9051263

idk maybe sth like this

[proven sundial]

Relatively speaking this card is fine

[tall acorn]

i'd invest in a recent graphics card for 1080p

[fading slate]

1080ti then

goat

[tall acorn]

easily might as well get a brand new 5060 at that point

better value, performance, longevity, etc

[fading slate]

i will, later on

[toxic atlas]

Or if you don't care about the raytracing you could also look into a 9060 non-xt

[fading slate]

i still need nvidia for work so...

[proven sundial]

Pure cuda ?

[fading slate]

else i could just get the 9060 yea

[fading slate]

yup

Im not all in games thou

[proven sundial]

I think i uhhh

broke the driver

or sth

[proven sundial]

how ?

[fading slate]

hang on let me try restarting

ok it's been loading for quite a while

then said sth like "unable to open the application, please reinstall bla bla"

[wheat turtle]

nvidia app

breaking things

for past few months

[fading slate]

here

i think i skipped sth

but meh i can still use the legacy one

[proven sundial]

there is always DDU

[fading slate]

i just did

i used that

to reinstall driver

[proven sundial]

in safe mode ?

[fading slate]

yup

[toxic atlas]

Uninstall & reinstall it from Microsoft store

Because the fucking Nvidia app is UWP

[neat furnace]

weird, my friend's pc when running endfield with vulkan got high cpu usage and lower gpu usage. but when play with dx11 its normal 60+fps, His specs is 1650 super R5 3600

could be VRAM Though but im not sure

[fading slate]

aw man

[wheat turtle]

try disabing his nvidia overlay off

[fading slate]

so ddu again or just uninstall the app

[toxic atlas]

Try just the app for now

[fading slate]

alright

[proven sundial]

App it is

[neat furnace]

nope, he didnt have nvidia app installed

[fading slate]

could be driver

[wheat turtle]

[toxic atlas]

High CPU usage is expected for Endfield, especially on Vulkan

Dx11 is meant for really old hardware and GPUs

[neat furnace]

that's what im saying too, just upgrade the CPU and GPU LOL

[fading slate]

well

[fading slate]

i mean

the 1650 is fine

it's just the r5 3600 is old

ya know

so high cpu is expected

dx11 will utilized more of the gpu so

[neat furnace]

yeah 1650 is alright if you just play gacha games or comp games

[fading slate]

my 1060 is even 120+ here without upscale

1650 is fine except laptops'

[neat furnace]

with dx11 or vulkan?

[fading slate]

also WHERE

[fading slate]

anything works for you

it's not "what's better"

it's "what suited you most"

if dx11 gives you higher and more stable fps

then go for it

[knotty plume]

Try vulkan first if have issues use dx11

[fading slate]

the pc race is not "what's the meta"
It's just trial and error

i should stop saying nonsense lol

[toxic atlas]

No I mean really old

Like GTX 900-series old

[fading slate]

anything > 8-10 y/o are considered old

so the 10xx+ are not old yet

[neat furnace]

well he had problems with vulkan so, im just going to tell him to stick with dx11

[fading slate]

hit or miss then

random things people can't explain

[proven sundial]

i mean endfield vulkan uses async compute

so that could be a big factor

[wheat turtle]

[toxic atlas]

The 10-series is 10yrs old
Doesn't even get driver updates anymore

[wheat turtle]

someone with a 3600 also had same problem gpu wasnt getting used much

told guy to disable nvidia overlay

magically fixed

[fading slate]

😩

yea

not the 1080ti thou

wait no it just did

alright so >10 years

[proven sundial]

Alright well i'm off to get my toxic shit injected at the hospital

hope it works later

[fading slate]

im done

gonna test now

[wheat turtle]

wait if i m right they do get updated once every 6 months jut secuurity patches no?

[fading slate]

uhhh

maybe no?

[wheat turtle]

last i saw 750ti still running genshin and hsr

even wuwa

[fading slate]

wait they do

some small patches and bug fixes

[wheat turtle]

ye they wont 100% pull out of drivers

yet

but release very late drivers

[fading slate]

ok it's more stable now lol

@proven sundial

[proven sundial]

welp shitty drivers once again

[fading slate]

General tip: DO NOT UPDATE YOUR DRIVER

just check it every 3 months
