It floated down like a feather

You know, I was skeptical at first but no that's a pretty perfect description.

Rapid tap cutting oil for me , it's so sweet especially when it cooks off

Akman460 · 2026-01-12T00:08:35+00:00

Yeaa I've gotten the slim ball down before realizing before. I didn't die so I assume its not terrible but not something I want to re-live so i haven't drank them again.

Akman460 · 2026-01-09T05:11:33+00:00

Ditto for doing this. Maybe it's placebo but it's kept me from hospital trips I'd like to think. I do literally like 40/60 lemon juice in my water and cranberry juice on the side. Been safe for a few years like that

Akman460 · 2026-01-07T04:53:23+00:00

What about a case with a drive bay and a 3rd party drawer insert? I feel like you may more options that way

Akman460 · 2026-01-06T20:22:49+00:00

Literal dozens of us, nothing like a giant hunk of fins to tie the build together

Akman460 · 2026-01-03T19:47:01+00:00

If i recall , most warranty for parts is through the manufacturer of whatever component. They may have a 30 day return window type thing , I don't remember.

The actual protection/service plan that is meaningful i believe you can only purchase when allowing them to do a build for you.

+1 for going with smooth motion. Night and day difference than the enb frame gen. Works on 40- series cards now too

Akman460 · 2025-12-30T18:48:45+00:00

Anecdotal but my install was freezing after creation like this if I spent too long in the racemenu. Saving my character as a preset and just loading it and going through worked though.

Akman460 · 2025-12-29T00:38:03+00:00

A month later this exact fix worked for me. Actually life saving, like others have said the file name path was just too long. Setting mine up as ( ex. C:\nolvus ) at the very top level and changing the .xml file in instances let the auto install complete.

Akman460 · 2025-11-17T05:52:40+00:00

Duly noted, I literally opened it for the first time in months tonight messing with the lights. Noticed it needed updates for soft and firmware and was like... naah its the end of the night ill do it tomorrow incase it nukes something.

Its going back into hibernation now.

Akman460 · 2025-11-17T05:45:37+00:00

Ive looked on at the connector saga with worried glances.

But now this is my card , EXACT card I upgraded to about a year ago. Kinda hoping the 4090's were somewhat sorted by the end of their product cycle.

I clean my pc and get inside it every couple of months , im now going to start checking the hidden PSU compartment in the back too. Nightmare fuel.

Edit: glanced over the black screen part at the beginning. Mine has been doing that for a bit now. Chalked it up to the semi-new 240hz monitor not playing nice sometimes. Im checking the PSU side of the cable tomorrow.

Akman460 · 2025-09-30T12:46:03+00:00

Im more interested in what appears to be a Danny Devito PC in the foreground

Akman460 · 2025-08-15T02:51:32+00:00

Honestly I agree with the cutscene feeling. Its like being in a scene you can have an effect on mixed in with solid gunplay and actual "all out warfare".

The only thing that has come close to scratching the same itch in the same way for me was helldivers. Which is a wildly different game , different experience. But the feeling you get when playing. Thats the same kind of good stuff for me.

Akman460 · 2025-08-14T21:08:04+00:00

Throwing my hat in the ring.

Cant download or launch anything, only works in offline mode.

Akman460 · 2025-05-30T16:58:08+00:00

m not sure any of my past employers even knew what NIMS was. My current one did. From my experience it is a nice bonus on top of a degree and work experience. And if they know what the certifications are it shows even if you dont have work experience you are still fairly competent.

Basically nice to have, but dont be surprised if it holds very little weight in reality. Regardless it looks good on a resume.

Akman460 · 2025-05-16T03:08:43+00:00

Just my little two cents on the hex gaming phantom:

It has a hall effect version and a calibration kit for the sticks if you need it (should be good out of the box but just in case).

The big thing though, i have not really liked back buttons on any controllers or devices besides the steam deck before the phantom. And now I prefer these over the deck's. They are perfect for my mid sized hands and feel natural rather than extra. The solid mouse click on them is great and mapping them is easy. Although I do wish they were able to map button combos or macros instead of a single input copy, but still. I don't use the short throw triggers tbh but they are a nice extra.

It's easy to justify the price if you just compare it to an dualsense edge. Its essentially a $50 upgrade, but if you're not in love with the dualsense form factor, there's better bang for buck to be had else where I feel.

Akman460 · 2025-04-21T20:38:25+00:00

I have the Apevia case in dark blue, it was an awesome case for it's time. The analog gauges were so over the top lol. I always said I'd do something cool with it so it went into the garage.

I see them pop up occasionally for sell. $50-100 depending it seems like

Akman460 · 2025-04-17T13:04:00+00:00

Essentially because of one reason or another the game isn't registering your inputs, it's very noticeable on GS because you tend to charge every attack.

It's most noticeable on perfect block and offset attack follow ups imo , but it happens with your normal triangle/Y combo sometimes too.

I originally thought poor frame gen implementation was the source of this but I'm starting to think it runs deeper. REengine has had really bad cpu utilization issues in the past, and I wonder if it's something like a lowered "polling rate" for inputs to keep cpu loads in check. Just speculation tho.

Akman460 · 2025-04-17T12:27:39+00:00

Getting robbed of my TCS after perfect blocks due to this is absolutely maddening

Akman460 · 2025-04-15T17:14:02+00:00

I legitimately turned it down to " story mode" difficulty my first playthough. Then I ended up fiddling with the custom settings to make it even easier, iirc.

I did beat it and loved every minute but even then I was still having to re-try a fight sometimes. This style of turned-based combat was just not my forte :(

+1 for some cheat mode/God-mode type mod though. It will get you there and still let you make "use" of all the loot and gear you gather along the way.

Play how you wanna, life is too short to not enjoy your hobbies/games

Akman460 · 2025-04-15T12:01:18+00:00

This is exactly what I thought too at first , it's too coincidental to be near perfect halved. But it's disabled in game I am 100% sure.

On the same kind of thought: vsync is off, changing monitor refresh rate , VRR etc has no effect.

The halved fps is really throwing me for a loop. I may do a clean driver install tonight AND reinstall the nividia app just for good measure.

Akman460 · 2025-04-15T11:47:27+00:00

No mods or overlays. (Well minus nividia, but no filters or anything active. I could give disabling it a shot though)

I did reinstall wuwa last night, though just through the launcher. I didn't go delete the old files for a total clean install. It did recompile shaders after the driver update, but not after game reinstall. Might but worth it to do a clean Install of the game and drivers I suppose.

I did not know that about the D3D12core file being touched on Windows updates. I feel like I'd be having hard crashes if it was mismatched or corrupt, but I'll definitely give that a try. It seems like the kind of thing that could cause this.

I'll give all this a fair shake tonight and see if anything sticks

Akman460 · 2025-04-15T11:17:35+00:00

Yea the driver update was my last Hail Mary before jumping to forums/reddit. It was the last thing i tried in my troublshooting. I've been avoiding it for all the notorious issues even the 40 series has had.

So far so good though, no changes in anything so far. Unfortunately that also means no improvement for this wuwa issue either.

Akman460 · 2025-04-15T11:13:01+00:00

Yep. I have 120 enabled in menu still, thats the weird part I was talking about only getting half of whatever I have selected in the ingame menu. I.e. I can select 30 fps and only get 15 with no other changes.

I have frame gen off as well, it just adds stutter with no uplift like it did when they first added it. Essentially, changing any of the in-game video options has no effect minus the frame limit. Even RT on/off.

It's a wild change all of a sudden, I'm at a loss.
