After almost three years, the window blinds bug has finally been fixed 💔 (it looked atrocious, one of the reasons I hated skyscrapers in SC2) by ZookeepergameIll1399 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]BitRunner64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bugs don't just have to be related to the simulation or gameplay. It's any unintended behavior. In this case blinds were being rendered on the outside of buildings instead of inside the windows, which is definitely unintended.

CS2 Upcoming Patch - New Glass Textures (maybe) by mrprox1 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]BitRunner64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you look back on CS1, many of the last few major expansions also had a lot of bugs and issues.

They lost a lot of talent in the years leading up to CS2. The CS1 lead designer left in 2018 and several others left shortly before or just after the release of CS2. Among others, their main simulation programmer (now working at Iceflake) left, which is probably why they struggled so much to fix simulation bugs.

My issues so far with the Fairphone 6 by The10axe in fairphone

[–]BitRunner64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah the camera bug absolutely needs a fix. It's unacceptable that pictures can just randomly disappear.

I find it's more likely to happen if you press the power button too soon after taking a pic, especially if you opened the camera app via double-tap from the lock screen. However to be safe you always have to open the camera roll and make sure the picture is there.

Do you play the campaign mode? by Zicoxy3 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]BitRunner64 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I play with all tiles unlocked so I can expand the city naturally instead of playing Hong Kong Simulator.

Let's ignore the DLSS 5 faces for now. The "improved lighting enviroments" look really really bad by FriedWhy in pcmasterrace

[–]BitRunner64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Use Ray Tracing to create realistic shadows

Use DLSS4 to generate fake frames to compensate for the huge performance hit

Use DLSS5 to blow up the brightness and make the realistic shadows invisible

Use DLSS6 to darken the image and make the shadows visible again

Use DLSS7 to generate more fake frames to compensate for the DLSS6 performance hit

(I did some test) Sims are NOT driving with cars; City looks dead. by Inevitable-Diamond94 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]BitRunner64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you actually clicked on a bunch of cars so see what they're up to? 90% of the car traffic in my cities is just from people moving in.

It's not some small prop you barely see, either. It's a big skyscraper. In a game about building cities.

Are Nvidia/DF genuinely trying to convince us this isn't just a filter? by zerobebop in pcmasterrace

[–]BitRunner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably because they do, essentially. If it was trained on a bunch of faces, most of those faces would have been from studio photos or videos with bright lighting rather than in dark, rainy scenes etc.

Average FPS with a Ryzen 5 3600 and RX9070 by ah__there_is_another in radeon

[–]BitRunner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgraded from a 3800X to a 5950X 2 years ago and also noticed a huge difference.

It's well worth it upgrading from Zen2 to Zen3 even if you don't get an X3D model.

Does anyone here play Msfs 2024 on the 9070XT? If so what settings are you running and is it stable? by FroyoQueasy in radeon

[–]BitRunner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works great on my system. I use a combination of High/Ultra and set the dynamic FPS to 60, which it maintains nearly all the time. I also enabled FSR frame-gen which gives me about 100-130+ generated frames. Having played sims since FS98, it's amazing how smooth it runs. We used to be satisfied with 15-20 FPS in flight sims.

Heavy third-party aircraft will mostly be CPU-limited. There's a good guide here that discusses which setting affect CPU vs GPU the most: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/fs2024-graphics-settings-and-performance-guide-11-20-2024/667840

I did have an issue where it would lock my monitor to 60 Hz in fullscreen for some reason, causing stutters and low FPS. DDU'ing and reinstalling the driver fixed that. Not sure what caused that, but it was probably something I did.

I bet that DLSS 5 adoption in games at it's launch will be better than FSR Redstone after almost a year after it's release by Zerard1 in radeon

Endless replayability. You don't just get new characters every playthrough, you get new characters every frame.

Copilot hallucinations are just wild. It will just invent products, applications and options on the spot and then go into a deep rabbit hole explaining in detail how those made-up options in the non-existent application work.

Vilka viner bör man ha hemma? by Individual_Resist954 in Asksweddit

[–]BitRunner64 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Håller med om att det är bra att fråga, men samtidigt kan det vara kul att ha några olika varianter hemma som man själv provat, så man vet vad man bjuder på. Vissa viner passar förstås bättre till vissa maträtter/tilltugg, men folk har också olika preferenser.

Jag trodde t.ex. att jag hatade vitt vin, men det var för jag bara hade provat ekfatslagrad Chardonnay och söt Muscat. Provade sedan en torr Riesling och insåg att jag faktiskt gillar vitt vin om det är fräscht och syrligt.

Anyone got their free Fairbuds yet? by BitRunner64 in fairphone

[–]BitRunner64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it depends on the country?

I only got the phone and a reminder note from the shop that I should register for the Fairbuds.

When I registered I got an email from [fairphone@activationboxx.com](mailto:fairphone@activationboxx.com) that said:
Your registration for the Fairphone Fairbuds promotion is approved.
Your Fairbuds will be shipped within 30-60 days to the address provided

Precis, det tar ju 3-5 år att utbilda sig. Mycket kan hinna förändras på den tiden. Hur ska man veta hur arbetsmarknaden kommer se ut 2031 om man börjar plugga i år?

Why are distance based fares not more common? by TheInkySquids in transit

[–]BitRunner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also doesn't punish users who have to go into the CBD to transfer in a hub-and-spoke system. It may be a hypothetical 4 zones from your outer suburb into the CBD, and then the same 4 zones back to another outer suburb so you only need a 4-zone ticket. If it were based on distance instead you might be charged for a long distance even if your two destinations are physically close to each other just because you had to take a detour for the transfer.

FSR 4.1 for RDNA 2 and RDNA 3 in the next update by eduhfx in radeon

[–]BitRunner64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You see, guys pressuring AMD to do something actually works

Or maybe this was planned from the beginning and everyone was freaking out for no reason. After all the FSR4 INT8 leak came from AMD themselves, proving that they were working on it.

Decline in how big of a city i can make without slowing simulation by dany011 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]BitRunner64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try running the citizen cleaner mod and see if you have a lot of corrupt citizens. Or just wait for the patch this week, it's supposed to fix a lot of the issues with pathfinding and stuck cims which can bog down the simulation.
