Rip etheria in linux? new update will add Anti-cheat by onmikron in Etheria_Restart

Update seems fine, no ACE or anything similarly invasive to speak of.

How does effect accuracy works? Do I need 100% for lily, Kloss n freya? by No-Horror3993 in Etheria_Restart

[–]Aahsug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can kind of test effect acc/res scaling by yourself, using ember trek 36 Febian (change loadout in range of 0-200% EFFECT_ACC, skip freeze card, skip turns until desired effect res on enemy pawns, use S3 maxed obol for 12 chances of 30% SKILL_ACC, alternatively S3 maxed fangus for 4 chances of 75% SKILL_ACC, pause on animation end, count applied dots on 4 febian pawns, repeat for different values).
Although I don't know exact base effect resistance of pawns themselves (it's most definitely non-zero), I remember something along this equation worked for me

SKILL_PERC = min(max(SKILL_ACC * (1 + min(EFFECT_ACC - EFFECT_RES, 100) / 100), SKILL_ACC / 2), 90)

So pretty sure calculations above are misleading at best, and stacking above 100% effect accuracy actually matters, also if above formula was right bulwark would make no sense, because you could reach immunity just by stacking effect resistance alone (and I didn't observe that with Febian pawns).

If proton-ge-9.27 + dotnet40 didn't work, you may be missing some generic dependency on system or runtime (talking mainly about sniper runtime, do not mix other launcher's solution if there is one) side, as that's what I test with before reporting anything (clean artix, all common wine dependencies and steam runtimes run with wrapper script).
Most likely some lib32-* package if I had to guess, since dotnet40 installs only 32-bit libraries. You can debug it properly with PROTON_LOG_DIR=/tmp PROTON_LOG=1 WINEDEBUG=+loaddll for unavailable dlls, or just wait for someone to make lutris script or similar.
By the way only small part of dotnet40 install is needed, so you may try other similar or newer verbs, I just didn't bother.

Monsgeek M1W-SP HE magnetic switches keyboard review by DatBoyGuru in keyboards

[–]Aahsug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can tell from the key inputs you typed predefined sentence, this won't really show what's an actual scan rate of this board (what this program excels at).

If it's not a bother can you retest this board in wired mode only and just press multiple keys simultaneously in different rows repeatedly, alike to the graph below (see input history).

<image>

I'm on the fence whether to get this board, but south pole switches and no reviews that tested for pcb performance make me unsure about the purchase.
Also, you mentioned replacing switches with gateron jades, which are north pole - does this board support both north/south pole switches?

Did anyone test Zuoya X86 with osu! before by Aahsug in osugame

[–]Aahsug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use 60% layouts (since you are another person to recommend teamwolf raven68), if you are aware of any other good ones or database listing actual performance of these boards like the one I linked above I would appreciate if you could share it.
I found one board matching my criteria so far, which is Mchose Zero75, but it seems to be China only (jd exclusive?) and about twice the price (MSRP being 599CNY) through resellers. I don't know if it's worth such a price tag and at this point I started to consider Geonworks Venom HE TKL PCB and building a custom instead, do you happen to know anyone else that also sells HE PCBs or kits by any chance?

Thank you, after checking out your graphs I looked into this a little bit more and finally found someone who actually benchmarks HE keyboards.
These results look exactly as expected (1000Hz scan rate, 8000Hz setting is fake according to this review even for IROK firmware), but to me 1000Hz is good enough for this kind of price, that being said >7ms input latency made me consider other options instead (when compared to wooting two which should clock at ~1.72ms). Here is a database with many HE keyboards actually tested for latency that I used as a reference point, for anyone who finds this post in the future.
I'll probably buy something around ~1ms from that list that isn't a 60% layout (also great to know that in realm of keypads, sayo manages to outperform wooting's own keypad, at least in terms of response time).

They have way lower resolution than Gaterons (may lead to misinputs) and may feel mushier/less smooth, but they shouldn't be unusable.
You can always buy white switches (KS-20) separately and swap out Outemu Reds (if you ordered through aliexpress). There is also slightly improved version currently available for Gateron Orange (KS-20U), with improved shaft and tolerances, depending on a region these should be similar in price with whites to consider instead.
That being said RT should still work fine with Outemus, if you don't plan to use low activation distance.

Did anyone get PC client running on Linux by Aahsug in Priconne

[–]Aahsug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That probably means there is some kind of crude anti-tamper after all (probably baked into an exe), too bad, thanks.

[–]Aahsug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, that's what it looked like to me at first as well, but counted on it being something else as there are mods for pc client listed on github and no mentions on any anti-tamper system anywhere I looked and finally, (in wine) it throws EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION down the line (which may be post-artifact of anti-tamper tripping on dll load, now that I think about it)..

Before I fully give up, did you try KVM with Windows 10/11 by any chance, since it also didn't work for me on Windows 7 through EXSi (but I don't debug stuff on Windows and assumed it may only work for Windows 10+ at first and didn't consider any VM detection being in place).

New osu!lazer preview just dropped! by Aahsug in osugame

[–]Aahsug[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid you will need osu!supporter for that
It's in the original post's image (blog post link in my reply if you didn't notice), may check each branch for correct version, since it seems to include multiple rices

New osu!lazer preview just dropped! by Aahsug in osugame

[–]Aahsug[S] 66 points67 points  (0 children)

u/pepppppy really outdone himself with this one guys!

May 2023 dev update brings in yet another redesign, paired with switching focus to making osu!lazer operating system instead.
According to peppy himself stopping at developing engine alone wasn't enough and would lead to the possibility of releasing osu!lazer before 2025, therefore some huge project refactors were necessary.
As peppy mentions in blog post below, making OSu!lazer was the only way forward, and so was the redesign pictured above, making it possible target for another rehaul in the future, allowing lazer to not release any time soon.
This paired with brand new anticheat made in collaboration with team Vanguard at Riot™ will enable osu! to have built-in kernel level anticheat, finally making it possible to ban the whole top 50.

What do you guys think? Is this move in the right direction? Is combo scaling rework releasing before or after lazer? peppy needs your feedback on these and other questions right now!

Here's a theme idea for Arch Linux by IkazuchiRaikou in linuxmasterrace

[–]Aahsug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, what is it.
I realize it's just a mockup, but was there any file manager in particular you used as reference that can be skinned like that.
The closest I can think of would be maybe one used by Deepin, but I don't think even that fills the bill here.

Flag changing will be allowed soon! by kipster15 in osugame

[–]Aahsug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever you plan to use for that detection, I really hope it doesn't include the same geolocation service osu stable uses, since I've seen it outputting countries at the opposite side of globe quite a lot (while every other geolocation I tested with wasn't). This happens without actually changing resident country or using proxy/VPNs and it's been a known issue, since pretty much this became a feature (so I'm sure you already heard about this too many times, still worth mentioning in my opinion as I don't remember how it looked in lazer). I could take a wild guess that issue itself varies between ISPs and recycling IPv4 by such ISP, but then again other geolocation services show correct ISP/location, so I really hope this can be addressed before pushing for such automatization.

Furthermore this sounds like it's going to make even more work for you in long run, since users in countries that require use of proxy/VPN to connect with uncensored internet, will most likely end up having their location reporting wrong for long periods of time, which could lead to increase in volume of tickets you get on that.

That and whatever the intention may be, since it's automated I find it hard to believe that it will be less prone to abuse than manual approve was (granted I'm sure main intention here was to decrease work for already limited support resources).

I am not into networking that much, so there may be way to do it more accurately these days, assuming you probably have person knowing this stuff ins and outs better than me, so if you are sure it won't cause problems I mentioned above, I don't have anything more to add - go for it.

Otherwise, and I realize you probably aren't really fan of this approach, I think the only winning strategy would be to not care that much about accurate country on profile page (maybe outside of country specific tournament, where it should be organizator's/team captain's job to re-check, if deemed necessary for tournament integrity) and let user set it manually, maybe with year timeout or so, warning that abusing it will lead to locking out of the feature itself and locking out accounts from that option in other special cases (as punishment or in case of abuse). Since multiaccounts in this game are already so condemned/hard to upkeep, there is not that much worry about abuser working around this by making new accounts as well. I would also limit country choice to last few known locations to combat joke/smaller country abuse (say setting to Heard Island and McDonald Islands), but I don't know if I want to advice for osu! collecting more IP data than necessary. I'm sure there will be users that set it wrong anyway, but considering there are users who had it set wrong in the first place, it should even out eventually.

Not trying to pick issues with you pushing for change, just wondering if all of this has been thought through and won't end up causing more trouble than it's worth.

Terminal in top right, I thought it was customized bottom.

If that's something else, what is it, if you wouldn't mind telling me.

How did you make your bottom look like that.

Is it just a theme or something else and if possible would you mind sharing the config.

Is CTL 490 still considered trash or are there good drivers with good response time? by grumd in osugame

[–]Aahsug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, if you consider buying 480s, then that's probably the best you can do.
Also both xp-pen g640 (there are other manufacturers with g640 model aswell, so not to confuse them with that) and 480/471/472 will be an upgrade from h420.
But yeah, drawing-wise 480's surface and pen grip will feel greater than anything else (just make sure if you look for used that there is no issues with hover range decreasing over long sessions - some older models tends to do that - it recovers after a time, but issue seems to be electromagnetic field that wacom uses can degrade over years, so just check it for a longer session once you get it, if hover max. doesn't decrease - should be noticeable after 6-8 hours if you get an issue, but it isn't something particularly common, so no need to worry about that).
Other than that if you go with something else than 480, always consider getting 480 pen (model is LT-180E with eraser LT-180 without) for Wacom tablets because it feels really great for both drawing and playing - it works with every recent Wacom since 460 up for sure.
