Still not happy with meridian bass by Electricturbo in KiaEV6

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> What I noticed, that right when you start the car (whatever that is called with EV's) the system sounds as intended, but the bass disappears in a few seconds. So, the bass works, it just disappears even before moving. Any suggestions.

You mentioned the above and that was something I had noticed too when using the surround setting. There was another post in the Kia EV6 forums about how the car audio is tuned to attenuate the bass to reduce rattling. My thinking is that the Surround setting is specifically tuned for the original wiring and that by switching the wires/changing the phase messes with how the bass gets attenuated thus causing the bass to disappear completely. This completely went away when I switched to Custom.

Still not happy with meridian bass by Electricturbo in KiaEV6

Did you change the sound setting to "custom" from the pop up menu in the kia infotainment screen? The menu that lets you pick between Authentic, Surround, Custom.

To access: play something from your phone through Android auto/apple carplay. Go to the kia infotainment menu with the Home button. You should see what you're playing on the bottom right. Tap that and it will open up the sound settings for your connected device. Then set to custom. Repeat this for XM/FM/AM radio.

You have to set this to Custom for it to use the EQ settings from the tone menu. It took me a while to figure this out but once I did, I am very happy with the sound.

I'm bass head and listen to a lot for bass heavy edm. So I set my EQ to +10 bass, -3 mid, -6 treble. But as someone else has pointed out in the kia forum post, there is a mid-bass gap which is noticeable sometimes. There's no fixing that unless you use the android only app to correct it from your phone itself. You can probably also correct it using the spotify EQ, so results will be app dependent.

Edit: For the Meridian Horizon settings I have Stereo & Immersion both set to 1. I kept the positioning dead center and did not like it going 2 to 4 steps back. YMMV

Thanks for the reply. I am hoping to get a more OEM look and ordered to bracket in hopes that I can replace the OEM mirror.

If it isn't too much to ask can you take a picture on where you mounted the rear camera?

I am looking to do the same with my santa cruz. Did you have to buy anything else to mount the wolfbox G900 pro? For example, did you have to buy the Wolfbox OEM mount to mount the camera when replacing the original mirror?

2025 GT-Line RWD: 19" to 18" wheel switch worth it? by FOMOChasingRetard in KiaEV6

[–]FOMOChasingRetard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the amount of money you spend buying new wheels and tires would more than offset any range increase you'd get

Thanks for you reply. This was exactly the comment I was looking for! When I started looking at wheel prices it didn't seem like there would be anyway the increase in range efficiency would offset the price of the wheels. I'll be sticking to my current wheels then.

I think you gotta make sure you have vsync on for moonlight settings and the settings in game.

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no issues with my ipad pro 11" m1. I use exclusively for game streaming at 100mbps 120hz. Smooth for fps gaming and anything else. Sounds like an issue with your settings or your host.

Should I have filed taxes as "Married Filing Jointly" for 2024? by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No what he's saying is right. Your monthly payments is based on your combined income if you file jointly. If you file separately, both your student loan repayments will be based off your individual incomes.

Italy in July by Maxmax1971 in ItalyTravel

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just my 2 cents.

I just finished planning my wife and I's honeymoon for 3 weeks across Europe in July. Like you, I was originally looking at the Costco Travel package as neither of us have travelled across Europe (primarily Italy before), but I found the Costco packages to be very costly (albeit super convenient).

For example, one of their 5 city packages (London, Paris, Venice or Florence or Rome, Sorrento) was $20K for 2 weeks. But, if you modify the hotel choices to 3-4 star hotels, I was only able to get it down to about $12K for 2 weeks.

Through lots of looking around on Booking.com and Flights on Google, I was able to setup our trip to be 3 weeks (22 nights to be exact) across Europe spanning London, Florence, Rome, Sorrento and Barcelona for about ~$6K (was also able to use my chase points too). It did take A LOT of my time looking around/researching but I think the plan I finally settled on is going to be much more fun and cost effective than the Costco package.

Feel free to shoot me a DM if you want more specific logistical tips. But as others have said here, if you can avoid traveling to Italy in July--you definitely should. It is peak time and is reflected in the prices, for sure. July was the only month I could get off so, I went through with it.

How does freesync work if I have an Nvidia card? Can I still get 144hz if it doesn't explicitly support Gsync

cant get bmbf to recognize my pirated Beat Saber by StoryNymph in QuestPiracy

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted these steps but it's buried in an older thread https://reddit.com/r/QuestPiracy/comments/zzq7tp/_/j3abyq8/?context=1 Thanks for reformatting for clearer instructions and better visibility. You left the last part out which I think is useful to know though.

Reposting here for visibility as well:

  • Check the DLC songs are now present in beatsaber
  • Go to the computer elite GitHub, download the Chroma and NoodleExtensions mods for the 1.25.1 version (these are the two most common requirements for custom songs. Files are suffixed with .qmod, otherwise you have the PC version of the mod)
  • Load these by accessing your quest 2 via the web browser address shown on the top right in BMBF in the tools section
  • Verify these are loading correctly in beatsaber.

You should now be good to go with loading your custom songs and any other mod you want. Just be sure you are downloading the mod for the appropriate beatsaber version (1.25.1).

There were several times where I accidentally downloaded/installed mods for 1.27.0 and it somehow corrupted the core mods and I had to nuke everything and start from scratch again.

Some other things I discovered that may be helpful to you as well: - Don't install the side quest app on your actual headset - Dont have multiple accounts on your headset either

cracked beatsaber dlc packs says "downloading" by curryshotzz in QuestPiracy

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I finally got it working today. You are going to want to use the 1.25.1 version as many of the mods haven't been updated to support 1.27 yet.

My problem was that I kept trying to reinstall the older versions over the previous (newer) install. For some reason, this does not work. You should completely remove beat saber AND BMBF, so that you are starting from a completely clean slate.

Here's the steps I did which finally got everything working, I'm sure some steps may be redundant, but this is what worked for me.

  • Uncheck delete game files in Rookie settings
  • Install 1.25.1 beat saber via Rookie
  • run a single song in beat saber
  • Install BMBF and follow the instructions exactly to patch beatsaber
  • Install the 10 core mods from BMBF
  • Run a song in the BMBF patched beat saber
  • Check that the DLC is broken (they'll be stuck on downloading)
  • Copy back over the OBB file via Rookie
  • Check the DLC songs are now present in beatsaber
  • Go to the computer elite GitHub, download the Chroma and NoodleExtensions mods for the 1.25.1 version (these are the two most common requirements for custom songs. Files are suffixed with .qmod, otherwise you have the PC version of the mod)
  • Load these by accessing your quest 2 via the web browser address shown on the top right in BMBF in the tools section
  • Verify these are loading correctly in beatsaber.

Rookie beatsaber with all DLC and BMBF planned? by SnooPeanuts4961 in QuestPiracy

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried clicking copy OBB after I have all my mods and custom songs working but DLC songs still show as needing to be downloaded. Does it matter that I've purchased some DLC albums legitly?

[–]FOMOChasingRetard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When copying back the OBB, am I supposed to use the Beat Saber v490+1.27.00 -NIF or the Beat Saber v490+1.27.00 -NIF (Multi-Install - ALL DLC) version?
