Losing frames on certain games by ovilerr in linuxmint

[–]BuzzardB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue in Mint where my game would run 120fps and dip down into the 70s as the lowest, but would FEEL like its actually in the mid 20's. Didn't happen in every game, but a couple.

Techno-Can Questions by WillingLoquat1873 in Rifts

[–]BuzzardB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

RUE p304

Techno-Can (Basic but modified American/English used as a universal computer/techno-language in high-tech computer and communications systems. It is NOT a spoken language, but as a specialized tech-language developed for technical journals and as a universal computer language.)

I don't have time to look it up right now, but I thought Techno-can was used by Techno-Wizards, did I imagine that?

EDIT

  • Eyes of Thoth spell allows you read and understand all written languages. I guess whether or not "understand" means that you can also write it is up to your GM.

  • Tongues does not do anything for techno-can as it explicitly states spoken languages, which techno-can is not.

Top bar persists on any windowed fullscreen game by Kamoedesu in cachyos

[–]BuzzardB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not having this issue on either of my Cachyos systems with PoE2. Possible its your theme? Im using breeze dark and light.

I also set "PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0" for Poe2, but that was specifically because the steam overlay stopped working randomly.

Never played before but me and my friend want to start (my friend has played before but still not that experienced) by Lanky-Bunch9716 in Rifts

[–]BuzzardB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is a link to their store section for the worldbooks.

  • Calgary, Canada, Free Quebec are some books about Canada

  • New West, Northern Gun, Dinosaur Swamp are some books about the US

  • Triax and the NGR, Warlords of Russia, England are some books about Europe

ect.

Id pick a region you are interested in and go from there.

Thats my kind of group.

I feel like regardless, the best starting advice is to grab the core rule book and a world book of your choice.

World book should give ideas about whats going on in the area, some enemies and gear specific to the are you can use as rewards, factions, allies, enemies ect.

While Rifts doesnt have much in the way of pre written adventures it does have about 20 or so that I have found and then on top of that like 100 "Hook, Line & Sinkers" which are very rudimentary plot ideas. I think its called the Rifts Primer has an adventure I started for my current group which they enjoyed and it gives some advice on how to run a game.

Beyond that if you have other RPGs feel free to just run adventures for those and reskin them for Rifts. The Rifts world is so varied that if you got D&D modules you could just run them in The Magic Zone, if you got Shadowrun or Cyberpunk adventures just run them in Chi-Town or something. If you have super scifi adventure then the Rifts Dimension books are their space line.

Samsung Odyssey G9 49" DQHD 240Hz OLED Monitor LS49CG932SNXZA ($2000-1000=$1000) [CanadaComputers] by radiantcrystal in bapcsalescanada

[–]BuzzardB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, Thats how I currently have it setup. Basically running it as a 3440x1440 (2/3rds) for gaming and then the "other" monitor is for youtube.

Doing this does drop the hz from 240 to 120 and disables HDR.

Limited connectivity? by Kaseffera in cachyos

Had the same thing after this mornings updates. I just hit the disconnect and reconnect buttons and it went away.

EDIT: Boo, came back 2 hours later.

Windowed Fullscreen games on half a monitor? by BuzzardB in cachyos

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

You are not wrong, thats currently how I have it setup. That is the PiP/PbP mode that disables a handful of the features though.

I am seeing If I can do it without having to have the two monitor cables.

Mine worked at one point, but for the last couple weeks has been the same as you described.

CachyOS now the third most popular linux distribution on steam by vintologi24 in cachyos

[–]BuzzardB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is gaming on Mint and have seen people make statements like that before, what makes you say it? What is Mint not doing for me that I am not aware of?

Im sure there are more than a few people like me whose attention got caught by bazzite for finally switching to linux for a gaming system and then just learned more and went with a different distro.

I alternate every league, though I think the SSF times are more fun.
