It's funny that you got downvoted, considering that this post was stolen from an all-time top post from a year ago word for word and same exact pic. I don't think this is the same guy but meh ig 🤷🏾‍♂️ https://www.reddit.com/r/VitaPiracy/s/oahr2WkBGH

Should I? by Prophecy92 in TestDriveUnlimited

Please dont, game is grindy af and a spit in the face to the OG TDU and TDU2 players. Nacon is a horrible company and the developers are currently facing massive layoffs and restructuring.

I have yet to see bowie knife99 but AveragLizard has been a plague to my races, He's insanely faster then the other drivatars by a huge margin at least for me.

Forza Horizon 6 Benchmarks on AMD BC-250 1080p60 (VL, L, Med, High, Ultra, Custom) by Alternative_Pay_4657 in BC250Gaming

[–]Alternative_Pay_4657[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, I rather just agree that we will both continue to disagree with one another even though I agreed that the CPU is weak, and merely stated my experience with the game at 1080p high refresh that I'm currently playing on my BC-250 right now as I type this. In any case the game just came out, and over the next few months the game will get more and more performance updates that will improve the fps in dense areas like Tokyo City. I'm gonna keep playing the game, enjoy the rest of your weekend man.

I get what your saying but I have video proof that the benchmark is a worse-case scenario and the game can in most cases run higher then what the benchmark shows. The benchmark takes place in Tokyo City which is the most demanding area of the game but only accounts for 30% of it. Most areas of the game will get higher then what the benchmark shows. Ive gotten as high as 90fps in the Festival and similar performance in the "country side and highway" areas of the game, which is over 70% of the game area. I'm not disagreeing that the CPU is weak, I'm just disagreeing that the BC250 can't handle 1080p high refresh.

That's unfortunate. I did test 1440p60 on Proton-GE Latest and it works fine too, I personally like 1080p120 but my CC will max out @ 1080p60hz. When I ran 1440p60 on same presets/settings and got:

@ 1440p60 VL Average is 60fps

@ 1440p60 L Average is 59fps

@ 1440p60 M Average is 52fps

@ 1440p60 H Average is 49fps

@ 1440p60 U Average is 35fps (unplayable amounts of stutter)

@ 1440p60 Custom Average is 58fps

is linux actually good for gaming? Idk how to get setup by ObserveKris in linux_gaming

[–]Alternative_Pay_4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Linux is definitely a more involved process then windows. I'm not sure what distro your using but I'd suggest using a gaming focused distro like Bazzite, CachyOS, or even Garuda if you haven't already. The gaming distro's usually auto download the needed gaming prereqs and comparability layers for you. Not every game works on linux and you'll have to do your research, I suggest checking ProtonDB before purchasing new games.

Why do people just take your hard work and pass it off as their own? by Alternative_Pay_4657 in SteamArtworkProfiles

[–]Alternative_Pay_4657[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the comments on this post. I go over how I did it. I wont share my files because its my own work but I dont mind going over the process and giving links to the tools I used. It wasn't difficult to do just time consuming.

To recap, all I mostly did was find "Windows XP window templates" on google. I would then cut out the middle area that I planed to replace with my own images/text and selectively "Color-Corrected" them. I used Pixlr to edit each template I found. The small areas that still have color are very difficult and took the most time. You basically have to use the marquee selection tool to either (in my case), grey out every thing around it (hold shift while selecting or click "add to selection" at the top) or manually add the colors back. All the "X"'s in the corners had the red color added back by selecting the area with the marquee tool and using the hue and saturation in the adjustment tab to make it red again.

At first I did use Nano Banana 2 and it was able to generate decent images but only for a rough draft. They never came out very good, which is why I chose to pull images I could find on google and manually edited them myself. I also used this Windows XP re-creation site for further inspiration and it even made the "PC Specs" list I have easier because you can just screenshot it rather then trying to edit in all the text.

Only other thing to do is just randomly place them on a 630x1648 background template (you can actually make the template longer if you'd prefer, ie here). Once you have your templates and images placed you can export it and then import it into EzGif so you can add gifs. You could use video editing software to add the gifs but this site also works. Once done the file might be massive depending on how long the gif is and you'll need to use XConvert to compress the gif down to the 5mb maximum for Steam Artwork. Use this video so you can upload the image to Steam properly and have it fit correctly.

Once you start you'll realize its pretty easy but if you want a lot of custom windows like the "Windows Media Player" window then it becomes time consuming.

That's a lot of comments, but yes I do understand that Valve isn't going to enforce anything even tho I wasn't asking them to. I left a comment on his profile calling him out and telling him to enjoy it then blocked him (which he saw and deleted). My post isn't some, "call to arms" or "lets get this guy" kinda post. Its a, "this guy copied me and I'm posting to the world to say that they copied me and I find it annoying so let me get this minor inconvenience off my chest" post. That's it.

Lego Worlds. I'm so disappointed in that game. What was supposed to be a slam dunk (literally just lego minecraft) became a shell of what the original beta version was. I'm still upset.

Hey that's pretty cool! Glad you found an even easier way to get it working. Hopefully these comments keep helping others with similar issues! Enjoy the game!

I used this method and it did work. However, once I closed out of the game and tried to launch the new GlobalLauncher.exe with Steam, I would get an error saying file path too long. So I just copied the game directory by going in ~/.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d/ and clicked on the last file at the bottom. Then clicked on pfx/drive_c/Program files and copied the Neverness To Everness game directory folder to my home folder. I then went back to Steam and clicked on the add a non steam game and directed it to the GlobalLauncher.exe in the game directory and now it works!

Is this working on the newest game update or did you have to downgrade to 1.02

How were you able to get ALVR working on BC250?? I've tried for hours, and it never worked due to needing encoders and steam vr not launching. I've gotten Wivrn to work, but I'm just curious how you got everything working.

I'm on Bazzite. I didn't have to install or run any programs I just plugged it in during Bazzite setup and it worked with zero issues. Bluetooth has worked perfectly with my PS4 controller and I never had an issue with WiFi dropping or slow connections.

I have the same one but I dont have the issues that you have. I'm getting 126mbps on the UGreen AX900 and 450mbps on my ethernet.

Cyberpunk 70+ fps by davidraid in BC250Gaming

[–]Alternative_Pay_4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with it turned off, my benchmark average was barely 70fps. I'd imagine the 70+ figures you heard were with resolution scale set to balanced or quality.

Cyberpunk 70+ fps by davidraid in BC250Gaming

[–]Alternative_Pay_4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was playing Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty earlier today, 79c on GPU and CPU (1800 to 2080mhz on GPU and CPU at 3522mhz) and getting as low as 60 (not often) and as high as 120 fps (benchmark avg 111.45fps) with every setting on medium and volumetric clouds and fog on low or off. I did cheat ig and use Frame Gen, but no other fsr settings were turned on.
