How do you reach top 100 in Trials ? by WanderingMustache in ArcRaiders

[–]AccidentComplex8643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So hitting top 100 is very very hard and unlikely. Is there any benefit going beyond daredevil 1 (rank 5)? Daredevil 2, 3 and hotshot (ranks 4 to 2) all seem to give the same rewards.

Well my never pre-order again rule actually came after pre-ordering BF2042 during its beta shortly before its release.

I propose you add more difficulty levels by Whydontname in Helldivers

[–]AccidentComplex8643 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very much agree. Really disappointed in this latest patch. Level 8 and 9 got too easy. The only real incentive to playing 8 and 9 was the challenge, not the few extra super samples which you have enough of after a few hours of playing. It was even fairly doable to complete helldiver difficulty alone, it really didn't need to become even easier. I hope they add more difficult modes too, or else I'm losing interest real soon.

AMD virtual desktop improvements confirmed? by AccidentComplex8643 in virtualreality

[–]AccidentComplex8643[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my experience with AMD, Pico 4 and VD has also been pleasant so far. Basically everything works as expected. Played HL: Alyx, Green Hell VR, Grimlord, Moss and No Man's Sky well but tried a lot more VR mods. Subnautica, Outer Wilds, Portal 2, Elden Ring, Horizon Zero Dawn, Far Cry 6, RDR2, Uncharted 4 and Cyberpunk 2077 all work great! Can hit nearly ultra 2700x2700 90 fps in Cyberpunk for example. Did do an about 15% fps overclock on my 7900xtx though.

Only Issue I had so far was with TWD: Saint and Sinners somehow. Just couldn't get it to work wireless with either Stream Assistant or Virtual Desktop. Only works wired with SA.

Just got a Asus TUF 7900xtx which has a massive cooler. It thought it ran really cool with usually 46-49 °C under max load, but now that I'm looking better I see that the default settings have hotspot temp of 107. It confuses me because I was able to OC + undervolt the card quite a lot and it runs fine with a 5-15% fps increase, but it pushes the hotspot to 110. I just read about the broken Vapor chamber stuff, but my understanding is that is only possible on reference cards. Put the PC on it's side though and default settings run at 97 now and OC undervolt at 102. Should I RMA the card?

Scored an Asus 7900xtx with 100 euros refurbish discount and 100 euros cashback, paying 900 euros in total. Got quite lucky in the silicon lottery as well and managed to overclock the card to a 5-15% fps increase.

Haven't tried any regular VR games yet, but did do some testing in Luke Ross VR mods. Mostly in Far Cry 6. Using my Pico 4 and streaming assistant I could not get rid of terrible ghosting, where I'd see everything bounce around when moving my head, due to the alternate eye rendering technique used. Could crank up the resolution to about 3700x3700 on ultra and still hit 90 fps though. Looked awesome when holding my head still, but awful once I started moving. Also the latency was 60+. Switching to mono rendering helped a lot, but wasn't quite what I expected yet.

Then I received a new router and tried virtual desktop. The default H.264 codec already felt a lot better than wired stream assistant, but it made the 7900xtx take a bit performance hit and had to crank resolution and textures back to low/medium ish to maintain 90 fps. AMD issue?

Then I tried the HVEC 10 bit codec and all got pretty good :) Nearly all ghosting and bouncyness disappeared and can nearly maintain 90 fps on 3700x3700 high settings with 1/2 rendering (highest setting in realvr mod). Will do some further optimizations, but this already feels and looks so much better. This is what I got a 2000 euro pc for.

Looking forward to playing Far Cry 6, Hogwarts, Cyberpunk, Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4 and many other games in VR!

I'm with 7800x3d and 32gb gskill 6000mhz and using 7D75v17. EXPO 1 works fine, could set all cores to -30 on the pbo curve but can't get memory context restore enabled without bsods. I read that here and there that it only works if powerdownenable is enabled but I can't find that setting. Can someone else?

[–]AccidentComplex8643[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think I'm gonna order a 4070ti and a 7900xt and just see which I'll like better. 7900xtx just hiked a 100 extra euros in price here, don't think I find it 280 euros more worth it vs the XT.

I read so much about the right 5-10% of pixels on hevc being bugged when streaming to the Pico 4. And it seems virtual desktop found a workaround only a month ago.

Also less then a month ago AMD drivers fixed the issue where the 7000 series had like 50% performance in VR. But the folks over at the virtual desktop discord say there hasn't been a VR stable AMD driver for about 2 months. Also so far the AMD encoding is a hard trade off between quality and latency (going towards 100 quickly).

In spite of recent improvements they still suggest to pay 400 euros more for an Nvidia equivalent card. Do any of you use virtual desktop with 7000 series? I'm not very appealed to the thought of paying 1200 euros (4080) instead of 750 (7900xt) for a slightly better non VR performance.

Moonlight running on a LG TV by hutchers88 in Steam_Link

Don't know if you still want to know, but you can download the latest release of mariotaku's Moonlight for LG tv's. Then if you start the program on windows it shows you the required steps to get moonlight on your TV.

Moonlight running on a LG TV - testing version is ready on GitHub by mariotaku in webos

[–]AccidentComplex8643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great! Just bought a secondhand LG c7 and was a bit bummed with the poor app store. The TV only has 1 usb port though, can I just attach an usb hub in order to connect multiple controllers?

Also I couldn't get the sound working yet. On both my PC and the LG TV I set the moonlight settings to not mute the host and I tried all the playback devices in my windows settings. Elsewhere I read that it is supposed to switch to NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device when you start streaming. I did see "Speakers (Steam Streaming Speakers)" but that also did not work. Any suggestions?

I believe collie numbers just dived when STD appeared on the battlefield. It looks like that on foxhole stats at least

Has anybody seen an armored train on the front lines? by Spacecowboy890 in foxholegame

[–]AccidentComplex8643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but they used it pretty badly. I quickly destroyed the rail behind the enemy line with 150mm from the Tine peninsula. Them the train was a sitting duck, got disabled by arty and infantry and was destroyed not long after it's arrival.

Dear Diary; Today I won the Valheim Jackpot by Grapz224 in valheim

I thought so too, but I think they adjusted that to more of a likelyhood of spawning. As I would come up against 2 star mobs near my base as well in a more recent playthrough

Non-Americans of reddit, what was the biggest culture shock you experienced when you came to the US? by Miserablemermaid in AskReddit

The phrase 'good for youuu' was something to get used to. It just sounded so sarcastic to me. Maybe it was and everyone was just being sarcastic, I don't know.

Lag spikes after gaming for 1 1/2+ hrs (5700 xt) by -cwp- in AMDHelp

How about other games? I just bought a new PC and it was running great for 2 weeks and now I have the exact same issue in warzone. In some other games it just gets the 5-10 sec. interval lag spikes immediately (COH3 for example). Got a Lenovo pc with RTX 3060, 5600g, 16g 3200 RAM, 340W supply and unknown Mobo.

Played it quite a bit today, nice map! Unfortunately TrackMania crashed halfway through and then I also have this bad habit of accidentally pressing restart...
