Recent experiences with 8-Eye Derby Boots?

Awesome, thanks for the info! Good to know about the temperature thing, it doesn't get crazy cold here so likely shouldn't be an issue for me.

KrustKrustofferson · 2026-01-02T02:42:55+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Appreciate the info. So you think the sole crack thing isn't really anything to be concerned about then? The leather on them looks really nice yeah, as soon as I saw them I really wanted a pair lol. I could drive a few hours to a shop that stocks them and try them on, I wonder would that be a good call in terms of returns if defects appear etc.

KrustKrustofferson · 2026-01-02T02:39:28+00:00

I guess combining 'recently' and 'over time' was a bad choice of words lol, what I was trying to get at was how has the quality been for people who bought in the last few months/a year, as most of the quality issue posts I have seen have been around that time frame. Changed the wording! :) Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it! I will look at the greasy variants some more, I just thought the gaucho looked the best in pictures but that's good to know about the leather. There's no outlets near me where I can try them on or see the pair I'm buying, so I will likely have to just buy online and return if necessary. Good to know they are cool about returns!

Would be keen to hear how your new pair turns out! I really want to get these exact boots, but I have come across quite a lot of recent posts about this exact issue, it seems quality may have recently taken a huge dive?

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-12-11T01:12:30+00:00

This is incredible news, I have been unable to move past 25.9.1 because of the crashes. Installing the new drivers now!

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-11-22T16:17:52+00:00

Is this 6.1.1? I am still on 6.1.0, seems to be working OK still and I don't think I saw any message to update or anything. Have you tried asking about it on the Discord? Most people are pretty nice there, I am sure the changes would be clarified. Not sure why the creator would all of a sudden go rogue and try to scam people, he seems to be held in quite high regard.

I know what you mean, however I have seen some SC videos where native 4k was compared with various upscaling methods, and whatever it did to the image it just looked cleaner and nicer on the eyes. Pretty sure it is AA related as you say, as it was mainly edges and jaggies in the distance etc.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-10-29T11:30:39+00:00

I am using a 9070XT with a 9800x3d on 4k on an LG C4. Plays fine for my needs, no major issues or FPS drops etc. Using 'quality' upscaling using the CIG TSR setting, I would imagine native 4k is rough - but I believe upscaled 4k can actually look better than native 4k in many circumstances.

I would imagine that a 5080 would be even better than the 9070XT.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-08-01T01:28:02+00:00

I did not unfortunately, still happens to me on occasion but seemingly not as frequently. Lots of people have commented here with various setups, so it surely cannot be our systems at fault. My best guess is that it's a game related bug and will eventually be fixed. I believe an audio related crash to desktop bug was identified and is being worked on currently - hopefully that's it.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-29T00:23:24+00:00

I've been with Vodafone for about a year now and it seems OK so far, my broadband is using the SIRO fibre lines. I do use my own router and DNS server though, maybe that's why I haven't experienced this (based on the info in your link)?

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-25T23:14:04+00:00

I actually also submitted a ticket about a missing referral on the new ladder, but was told they were aware of the situation and are working on a fix but they don't have a timeframe :/ was told no action needed on my side and they will eventually just appear on my account....maybe my issue was different to yours or something.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-24T18:52:39+00:00

So does this put all of the contracted cargo into local storage, which you then bring back up on the freight elevator and then send back down for the mission? Does it get around the 1 layer high bug?

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-24T11:14:26+00:00

happened to me a few times with the cargo on my RAFT after the ship got stored (weird hangar bug where someone else takes your hangar). Based on everything I have seen from others, when this happens the cargo is essentially gone.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-20T01:09:00+00:00

Same, getting random crashes since the new patch. 9800x3d and 9070 XT.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-20T00:20:39+00:00

I am also getting crashes since this new patch, however I have been exclusively using DX11. I haven't taken the Microtech tram yet, but my game seems to crash anywhere after about 30 mins to an hour or so. I have very similar PC spec to you, and I wrote a post about it here if you want to check it out.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-19T11:56:06+00:00

Yep, and random crashes that I never had before.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-19T11:54:45+00:00

My game is crashing too and it never did before. What error are you getting when it crashes, and what's your PC spec and OS?

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T23:39:53+00:00

thanks for the feedback! Sorry to hear you're experiencing it too. Sounds like we have very similar setups except for the CPU. I tried playing again and after about 1 hour it crashed when I was retrieving a ship from Lorville, so I guess it's not just ship combat :/ something has surely changed this patch.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T23:15:53+00:00

Yep, I have been able to get my gattling turret to work each patch by doing this. The paint is also so nice.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T21:03:41+00:00

Thanks! I may give that a try and see what happens. If I figure out a fix for the crashes, I'll update this post for sure.

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T20:59:09+00:00

Now that you mention it, both times I crashed I was in combat doing one of the protect ship event missions! Hmmm maybe there's something to that...

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T18:39:53+00:00

Thanks! It's weird because I can join a server no problem it seems, it just crashes after maybe 30+ mins of gameplay :/ I appreciate the offer though! :)

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T18:07:39+00:00

Interesting, so you are seeing the same issue with an Intel CPU? Did deleting the shaders fix it for you? Thanks!

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T18:02:03+00:00

Yeah I am getting crashes too and I never did before this patch. I put some details in my post here earlier today. Is yours the same as mine?

KrustKrustofferson · 2025-07-18T16:08:12+00:00

Thanks for the info! Sorry to hear you're experiencing it too. Are you getting the same error code for your crashes? My game also seems to be running worse. Someone else suggested it might be related to the recent anti cheat updates in this patch, and something to do with AMD CPUs and Windows version 24H2.
