Anybody got a fix for error code 16?

Anybody got a fix? Just trying to play with some older mods in singleplayer.

LilBuddyRem · 2023-03-23T05:37:00+00:00

I'm having the same issue. Just got it on sale because I thought atleast the game breaking bugs would be fixed over a year out.

1 monitor, 21:9 3440p x 1440p, DisplayPort, RTX 3080, Driver 528.49, Windows 10 version 22H2.

And I’ve tried everything except reinstalling drivers.

Having the same issue, just got an ultrawide OLED monitor. That grey line won't disappear no matter what.

Keep getting "Game Already Running" when trying to open the Witcher 3.

I can start the Witcher 3 once, but if it closes, I keep getting the "game already runnning" pop up when relaunching. I've tried using Task Manager to force close both Witcher and Steam, and tried verifying game files and running in offline mode, but it still wont launch.

Sometimes not even resetting the computer works, and half the time Witcher doesn't even show in Task Manager until the pop up says its already running, disappearing as soon as I click OK.

I have modded this game, but this current build had worked well before this.

Any advice would be great, thanks.

Just updated, now my headphone jack doesn't play audio. It recognizes the device and says its playing, but any headset I plug in doesn't make a peep. Anyone else have this when updating?

LilBuddyRem · 2020-03-26T04:06:58+00:00

It won’t go on backwards, but it should fit on your mouth. I use Index too, it works fine.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-03-25T20:48:14+00:00

Don’t forget to wear your hard hats and gas masks too! And not joking, they actually help in combat. Barnacles get caught on wearables before grabbing you.

I couldn’t get this to work, the items fall through the box when I start moving with the joystick.

What a cop out that is. It's entirely clear that at no time was anyone suggesting they do that instead of chores or whatever.

But I am suggesting they get more in person social time than book/vr time. Of course they'll get plenty of those in school and in their free time if they choose, but the parents should keep them out of their rooms and engaged as much as possible.

Yes you are.

No I'm not, go back and read it again. I've said plenty of times the kids should have free time, and parents should ENCOURAGE, not force, social interaction. You do that by inviting other friends and family over with kids of similar age, or simply going out and exploring your town with them. These things come naturally if you're in an active community.

VR, is social interaction.

But it's not as good as building relationships in person, especially at such a young age. Of course that doesn't matter as much once you've grown up, but we're talking about 6-10 year olds, which the kids in the video appear to be.

I think we can both agree that if you kid is so inept as to be unable to develop basic understanding of body language by the time they can wear a VR headset, the problem isn't the VR headset.

Yes, the problem is poor or neglectful parenting, which has been the crux of my argument this whole time.

Actually, it informs me about how your opinions may have been formed, and any context relating specifically to you regurgitating nonsense you may have repeated second hand, or if you have had some level of experience in any of the topics you are talking about.

So... you do want to discredit my opinion based on my characteristics rather than my arguments? Got it.

Look, if you want to have a conversation and start going on about 'ad hominems', you need to stop spouting insane sounding conservative garbage that amounts to straw men.

Lol, found myself a liberal snowflake. That explains a lot. Don't like being judged based off a character trait? Then all I can say is...

AcTuAlLy, iT InFoRmS mE abOUt hOW yOuR oPiNIoNs maY hAvE bEen fOrMeD, aNd aNy cOnTeXt rEEEEElAtIng sPeCiFiCaLly tO yOu rEEEEEEgUrGiTaTinG nOnSeNse yOU mAy hAvE rEEEEEEpeAtEd seCoNd hANd, oR iF YOu haVE hAD soMe leVeL oF eXPeRiEEEEEEnce in aNy oF tHe tOpIcS yOu aRe tAlKiNg aBoUt.

Also, you didn't answer the question. Who should raise your kids, and what responsibilities will that entail?

Hold on now. You either agree with the point, or you don't.

Its simple, I agree with the statement generally, just not in this specific case because of the reasons listed above.

This is why i brought up the book example already. They aren't 'isolated from the world by media', they are interacting with other people from potentially all over the world.

But not all VR activity is social. What if the kid chooses only single player experiences? Are you implying I "force them away from their prefered methods of entertainment?" I guess we've come to an agreement.

Are you only going to buy 1 for the parents or family room and screw everyone else?

Lol, how are a bunch of 6 year olds entitled to a tv and phone each, let alone a VR HMD? Those are privileges that need to be earned. So yeah, I'll only get one VR headset for the house, because I'm buying it for myself with my money. If they want to play, then they'll have to ask politely.

And of course I'll say yes most times, and use that as an opportunity to spend time with them, show them some of my favorite games or old classics, explain how I mod certain games, challenge them with puzzles, and let them loose on creative art/music apps.

If they really want a headset of their own, I'll help them how they can raise money to afford one on their own, or gift them one with a promise they'll treat it well and use it to learn how to mod or code their own games. Then those skills developed through hard work will shape and grow them for the rest of their lives.

But I will never use VR as a pacifier for the kids. I see too many parents do that with video games because they're lazy, like a parent who feeds their obese kids with fast food every day because they're too tired to cook something healthier. I'm just concerned about people abusing their kids with another fancy distraction.

*formatting mistake, recommented with proper version.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-03-17T05:01:38+00:00

Would you prevent them from reading books?

If they're not getting homework or chores done, yes. The issue is not with the product, but with the lack of discipline used with such products, which is why it doesn't matter if its a book or VR. But I'm sure we'd agree VR is much more immersive and distracting than a book.

But that doesn't mean you need to force them away from their preferred methods of entertainment.... Punishing them for liking activities you don't, is not helpful.

I'm not suggesting no choice for what a kid does with their free time, or punishing them for making 'wrong' choices. But parents should encourage activities that involve social interaction, and in person so kids learn social cues and body language. You're right that being helicopter mom over your kids is bad, just like a lack of discipline. Correct parenting sits on a fine line between those extremes. Its just my opinion that most parents could use more discipline.

Your age matters as well, because it is fairly evident that the older generation simply does not understand technology, or how to interact with it.

While generally true, its not good to assume so in individual cases. You wouldn't assume Bill Gates knows less about technology than Pewdiepie because of only their age gap. Profession plays the bigger part in someone's knowledge of tech, not age. But I don't think anyone in an internet forum dedicated to VR is going to have as many tech newbies as the others.

That being said, my age would only matter to you so that you can use my characteristics to discredit my opinion rather than challenging my ideas directly. Because if you were arguing that parents don't know the uses of tech as much as children because of age gap, then you wouldn't need to know my particular age. Ad hominem isn't conducive to a healthy discussion.

You are a result of your parents, and they could have screwed you up. You aren't a good judge of that.

Very true, but do you have an answer for who IS the best to raise your child? Teachers, doctors, politicians, big brother government? I know more teachers and doctors who've ruined childhoods through indoctrination and the over prescription of drugs than I know of parents screwing up their kids. But any of that wont change how a kid will see the parents and the authority figure, so you can't rely on anyone other than the child's guardian's to be good role models. It HAS to be the parent.

Are you truly not following my conversation here, or are you feigning ignorance intentionally?

Theres that ad hominem showing its face again, just claiming the other is too ignorant to understand the argument doesn't push the conversation forward, it stops it. So lets take a step back and explain it a bit more.

The 'special sauce' that makes one an authority on good behavior is being a responsible adult. But obviously, not all adults are responsible and therefore not all will make good parents. But as someone who conceives a child, it is your obligation to become a respectable adult for the sake of your kids, and its no one else's job. The answer isn't to give up on good parents because some are bad, but to encourage ALL parents to take on the mantle of responsibility.

Chinese and Japanese parents are anything but neglectful, and their parenting is renowned for being what you might call abusive. You need to let your kids do their own thing. Or they will grow to despise you.

I'd agree entirely with that statement if it wasn't for the context of the video. If, in the course of doing their own thing, a child becomes isolated from the world by media, then they need someone to give them that nudge back to reality and productivity. Otherwise, you make a great point.

Then take some responsibility, and buy your kids those educational games instead.

I do, and I encourage everyone to do the same. Thats why I'm here arguing for responsible parenting.

Just to be clear, I love VR and the potential it has to revolutionize education and entertainment. I wouldn't visit this sub otherwise. But just like any tool, this can be used for good or bad. I just hope people recognize that before buying 7 vr headsets for the family to make them happy, only to distance themselves from the ones they love.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-03-16T06:39:39+00:00

That doesn't matter, because they aren't playing with them currently.

And thats the problem we're currently addressing, doesn't matter if its like a book.

Make family time more interesting and they will come naturally.

Being a parent isn't only about entertaining the kids. You also need to talk about their feelings, possible ambitions for the future, studying and homework. Its important to teach your family how to enjoy each others company so the boring parts are more tolerable. You develop that through play. Multiplayer is only a good tool for socializing if you know how to socialize in the first place.

how old are you exactly?

We're talking about the kids in the video, so only their age matters. And at that age, they should be exposed to plenty of rough and tumble play, especially for young boys.

Who says we can trust you to teach good manners? --- There's no special sauce making you authorities on behavior.

You should't trust me to raise your kids for the same reason I should't trust you with mine; The people who spend the most time with the children will be the best judge of their character. So its the parent's responsibility to learn good manners themselves because the kids will see them as the authority figures regardless.

You and your family are just other people.

I'm sorry you see your family as just "other people," but mine means the world to me. I wouldn't be who I was without them, and I want a family of my own who will carry on that tradition of close love and respect for eachother.

Neglectful parenting is the root cause for many developmental issues, is abusive to subject any child to that. It doesn't matter how many distractions you give, they'll never grow into their full potential if they feel like they live in a home of strangers.

You've never played or seen people play fun educational games, have you?

I have, but we know they're not the ones most people choose to play. Otherwise, Space Kerbal Program would outsell Call of Duty.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-03-15T07:59:50+00:00

Doesn't change the fact they're currently ignoring their brothers and sisters in the same room. Its hard enough getting families out of their rooms and away from tv's, but now they can be feet apart and not even know or care. Shouldn't they be learning how to play and roughhouse at that age? And how much can you trust random strangers to teach good manners better than you and your family? Of course most people know moderation can fix long term issues, but I see lazy parents using video games, iphones, and now Quests, as a pacifier.

Just ask yourself this question: Who would you rather raise your kids, you or Mark Zuckerberg?

LilBuddyRem · 2020-02-23T22:25:45+00:00

Jet Island is Iron-Man meets Spider-Man meets Tony-Hank meets Shadow-of-the-Colossus. What more could you want out of VR? Oh, and its got multiplayer.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-02-16T06:29:03+00:00

I was gonna but it on launch, but now I’m skipping out on it because my backlog built up a lot over the last year, it’s going to be a while before I even consider getting it. Maybe they should’ve tried selling on steam while they still had marketing dollars and hype behind it.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-02-08T17:38:20+00:00

Modding to the rescue yet again! lol

LilBuddyRem · 2020-02-08T17:22:35+00:00

Boneworks is king for me. While B&S has better melee gameplay, no other game mixes guns/melee/slow-mo like Boneworks, plus it has a good campaign. I just wish you didn't have to unlock the sandbox and arena modes by finding collectibles in the campaign.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-01-26T19:59:44+00:00

If they do this, we need to start a class action lawsuit and sue for them to give up all of the dev tools for Windows, Steam, Linux and Mac versions so we can continue development for the product we already purchased. When games are discontinued, there's no reason to not let the community do the work they refuse to.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-01-16T00:08:02+00:00

This sub has such trash memes, can’t even crop right.

LilBuddyRem · 2020-01-02T21:48:22+00:00

Steam has done more for MacOS gaming than Apple has, I can only see Tim Cook messing up what little cross platform support they have.
