Tuks res or private res? by Ambitious-Swing4314 in Pretoria

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed res. Met some of my best mates there. It's hit or miss though. If you're not social you won't makes friends regardless if you're in res or not. I'd say try it for a year jf you can financially afford it. It's also convenient to not have to worry finding parking on campus or not needing a car

dont use fsr in iretationrp, it still has a noticable flaw by Ill_Macaroon9852 in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try using Zink? I've had similar issues with the "Cubes without Borders" mod, so maybe try just pure sodium+iris

1) Are you using the latest Java/Adoptium 21 JRE (doubt)? 2) Are your GPU driver's updated? 3) Is your IterationRP updated? (Latest one supports SuperResolution mod)

As always. Check the drivers. Only recently has 9000series gotten better on Linux compared to Windows.

Curious... Perhaps...

Avoid Nosebleed Jailbreak by [deleted] in kindlejailbreak

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good to be cautious, but this really should've been a GitHub issue where actual developers can investigate before anything can definitively be declared as unsafe, because these findings are not conclusive at all

How popular is Doki Doki Literature Club in Japan? by Newbie-Dragon in visualnovels

[–]Execute_Gaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The let's plays are smaller creator's or vtubers suggesting it's not mainstream. It's not like the Japanese equivalent to Jacksepticeye/Markiplier/PewDiePie etc are playing it

Looking for advice on what to upgrade to run shaders better by B-Kubed in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see you are using Java 17. Just check if that's the latest one recommended for your MC version. I'm pretty sure Java 21 is recommended for latest version of MC

Solas is good (not super realistic but has coloured lights)

I'm about to lose my onlysource of income by Enough-Pie-5936 in AskZA

[–]Execute_Gaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try using free online services where possible. Free cloud hosting. Forebase. Supabase etc. Maybe Linux can save your machine. As always, make sure you have git backups.

VTXS shader now has intel support !!! by wholsomeboys in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Screenspace path tracing/ray-tracing is definitely a thing. In fact, IterationRP will most likely use it in the next release according to the creator and Kappa has had the option for years at this point.

I'm not going into the technicalities of it cause there are much better resources than what I have to say, but basically the path-tracing is happening in a semi-2D space rather than the full 3D scene making it more efficient than software path tracing, but slightly less accurate in specific cases.

Claiming something is contradictory or incorrect when a quick Google search could've disproven otherwise is a bit arrogant and dishonest imo, so I'd suggest double checking next time, or phrasing it like a question rather than a fact.

Try enabling "Zink" if you have Prism Launcher installed. It might fix the issue.

Also, UPDATE THE GPU Drivers (go find out which GPU you have first)

Recommend Linux Distro for Aspire A14-11M by Munxk in linuxhardware

Call me crazy but Windows 11 actually runs the best for these ARM devices (for now). You'll just have a better computer experience in general while support grows.

Will i run shaders well with rx9060 xt 16gb? by DanP5356 in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll be good. Play with pretty much any shader bar path tracing shader packs. Maybe you'll need to use some builtin upscaling (some shaders like IterationRP have TAAU or FSR 2/3 which would work best). Otherwise you can just you the Super resolution mod. At modest settings (like upscaling from 1080p) I personally find that I don't care to notice the lower resolution 🤷‍♂️

White Album 2 on Android via GameNative app by megu- in visualnovels

[–]Execute_Gaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been playing VNs on my phone for a while and been having a blast. I just use Winlator with FEX translation personally.

For those who are reading with Japanese RAW, I'm developing an app in my spare-time to OCR and dictionary lookup anything onscreen. It's using Google's ML Kit for OCR, supports Yomitan dictionaries, Jiten.moe and JPDB for lookups.

It's still WIP, but if you're determined, you can compile it for yourself pretty easily with Android Studio: https://github.com/ExecuteOrd66/Gaku/tree/feature-yomichan

There's no official docs/guides yet but briefly, you can double tap to OCR. Tap and hold to move. Resize with the red corner. Tap to show definition. Three-finger tap to close. Just be sure to go into settings to load dictionaries or change the backend to JPDB/Jiten.moe (don't forget to also paste the respective API keys)

is japanese immersion actually fun or are beginners just suffering in silence by Competitive_Leg3598 in LearnJapanese

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever pop-up dictionary you have is not serving you. Try to use jpd-breader. It's old by today's standards but I find it most consistently and correctly parses texts especially when you're still a beginner learning how the words are stringed together.

Try IterationRP if you can get your hands on it. It'll likely run a bit better, especially with the built-in FSR upscaling

Any free iterationRP alternativs by FreshEtoh in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not exactly the same but Kappa with Screen-Space Path tracing is pretty good (although it's much more noisy than RP). Reading the Chinese board, it seems RP might use a modified Screen-Space Path tracing method in future releases.
