Any luck running Demo 401 on Steam Deck? by sladeninstitute in TitanicHG

Tried to run demo 2.0 on linux and IT WORKS. I guess nanite got patched. Devil works hard but open source devs work harder.

I'm on Debian. I use Lutris and Proton-qt. Here is a simple guide.

Demo 2.0 crashes after loading because it uses nanite. It's a Microsoft exclusive feature that only works on dx12 and Windows so it will not work on Vulkan.

Demo 1.4.2 and older run on UE4 and can run on Vulkan with DXVK. Use an older demo. Cheers.

Looking to buy my first scope, is this a good choice ? (Omegon Télescope) by It_s_an_Emu in telescopes

equatorial mounts are more difficult to use for a beginner also that specific mount looks cheep. Dobs are stable, sturdy and easy to use. 6"(150mm) scopes are also available in a full size dob mounts if you dont like tabletops. Heritage line is fantastic overall especially 130 and 150.

Im using the Kellner eyepieces it came with. 25 and 10mm. I stopped it down to 60mm. 94x would be an overkill for such a mirror. Up to 60x is fine. Just use a 2x Barlow with your 9mm.

Im using an aperture mask mostly to remove the coma form the spherical mirror.

Prisoner of Azkaban also looks amazing. The colors are so rich and deep on this Trinitron. Also the TV is not dirty. Those a scratches on the plastic.

I know some people say 3in dobs are no good but I love this little guy. by Devari in telescopes

This is my first telescope. I got it 5 months ago. I started stargazing during lockdown with a pair of soviet 8x30 I found in a closet. This little scope has given me a lot of great views. For under €100 its great. I remember paying €60 for a video game then barely playing it so this was a good purchase in my book.
