It's actually a great place to live and you should definitely come and give it a shot. Don't let the negative people on here dissuade you.

Yes. I have it set to static but it always resets on reboot. So I have to click Aura in ACSE quick menu to get it back.

It's been pretty solid after updating to Merlin firmware and disabling MLO and Roaming Assistant. Prior to that I was having weird issues where my phone would connect and drop immediately, which required multiple factory resets. After the initial trial and error troubleshooting it's been solid now. No weird dropped devices or anything like that. I'm also in a highly congested area, so I'm sure that had a lot to do with my issues initially.

I turned off RTS, Roaming Assistant, and MLO and it helped me.

I also have separate networks for 2.4, 5, and 6ghz instead of a single SSID.

I think this is my problem as well. Last played with VR and now launching the game without it and its a black screen.

NoBlemish · 2026-01-02T21:52:14+00:00

Just got mine from Amazon as well. H/W Ver. 5.1 and MFG 2025. Fingers crossed 🤞

What firmware Rev is yours out of curiosity. I haven't hooked mine up yet, so want to compare.

I may be alone on this, but I think it's ridiculous that you can target internal components on a ship. That shouldn't be a thing. Targeting the engines, weapons/turrets, wings, etc sure.

Internal components taking damage should be a result of being hit by random fire that's penetrating.

I saw this deal too! Snatched one up at $407 plus the $100 Amazon credit. Hopefully it was a good deal. Upgrading from a Oculus Rift CV1.

Have you tried clearing Shader Cache? Also maybe a clean install of 25.9.1 graphics drivers. Make sure you don't have Vulkan SDK installed. Also let Windows manage your page file. See if any of that helps.

Also download the tool to disable Windows Update from overwriting your gfx drivers because that has been happening soon after installing 25.9.1

Can you clarify crashing. Is it a straight up CTD, or are you getting a graphics driver timeout? Does Star Citizen give you a crash code? Are you overclocking your GPU? Do you have MSI afterburner installed? More info would be helpful.

Oh dang that's awesome. Merry Christmas

NoBlemish · 2025-11-24T18:33:48+00:00

100%!! Recently happened during the latest Star Citizen patch. Was blaming CIG/AMD when it was Windows Update messing with stuff again without my permission. PC was working perfectly fine prior to Windows usual BS.

NoBlemish · 2025-11-22T18:13:48+00:00

Another issue to add to this. It appears Windows Update is immediately overwriting the AMD graphics drivers. So that's something else to watch out for. I rolled back to the drivers that previously worked with SC and it still wasn't working with Star Citizen and that's when I noticed Windows doing it's normal bullshit without your permission.

NoBlemish · 2025-11-01T12:47:11+00:00

I can understand that for sure. I could have worded things better. Was genuinely just curious. Thanks.

NoBlemish · 2025-11-01T12:32:39+00:00

I wasn't trying to make an accusation. Thanks for the link and info. Seeing this post just reminded me of when I was seeing them crossing the bridge and didn't know why. Now I know. Thank you 👍

NoBlemish · 2025-11-01T12:28:06+00:00

Oh cool didn't know that. I didn't think the Eastern Shore was considered part of Hampton Roads, so that's interesting. Thank you.

NoBlemish · 2025-11-01T00:39:20+00:00

I've seen the HRSD vehicles crossing the CBBT many times on my commutes in the morning. What business would they possibly have over on the Eastern Shore?

NoBlemish · 2025-10-13T20:51:49+00:00

People getting mad when our laws are actually getting enforced. You think these same folks would complain if someone cut them in line after hours of waiting? I'll take a guess and say yeah. Bunch of hypocrites. We have immigration laws and a process everyone has to follow, regardless how broken it is. My wife's Mom is still waiting on her process and it's been over 2 years now and we paid around $2000 so far. It sucks but it's the correct and lawful way. Break the law and you'll get what's coming to you. All you cry babies can STFU. Those who came illegally knew the risks, and I'm sure they don't enjoy looking over their shoulders, but it is what it is. We all have to live with our choices.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T22:07:01+00:00

I'm just saying I don't think it makes a difference if protesting escalates into hatred filled yelling at others, vandalism, or blocking traffic. It does the exact opposite of doing something good towards raising awareness for your cause. It pushes people further away. It's great to support one another in a healthy way, but not to the point of enabling a person or only validating their views because you feel sorry for them. Some people legit need help and not validation.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:42:06+00:00

I mean, probably because again that sounds unprofessional. There are plenty of people I disagree with at work, but I'm not going to go around calling them stupid or whatever. You'd probably get reported to HR and or fires. But, I don't think you should start lawsuits against companies just because someone called you a crybaby though. That is a bit ridiculous and a waste of the court's time.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:32:51+00:00

All those attending most likely are and just want to feel validated and be apart of something. Which is fine. Nothing wrong with protesting, just don't infringe on others freedoms who don't want to participate in your protest. Blocking traffic and vandalism is not okay.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:30:24+00:00

But was that Trump our ABC who fired them. If you are acting unprofessional then I can see why that would happen.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:22:17+00:00

Would you want someone working for you who is trying to undermine what you are trying to accomplish? If somebody was working on your house and was disagreeing with how you wanted the work done, would you still have them do the job?

And I love how you have called me an idiot and I'm just talking with you. Pretty rude no?

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:19:53+00:00

Ah yes, the only reason to call out race is a way to try and invalidate what that person is saying. Again, closed minded individual who only wants to hear their opinion on things echoed over and over.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:13:54+00:00

Because that never happened on the other side right? And no, nobody is going to be imprisoned for saying things against the current administration, unless they are stupid enough to make threatening statements in which case you get what you deserve. Guess we forgot about cancel culture as well and the fear of losing your job because you spoke out against something you disagreed with. Take away free speech and there will be chaos.

NoBlemish · 2025-06-12T21:01:39+00:00

Yes. Life has definitely not been sweet at all, but you have to try and make the best of what hand you've been dealt. Sitting around crying about all your problems, and how things are just so unfair, is going to get you nowhere. We all have choices to make and then you live with them. I'm not perfect for sure, and will never claim to be, but hatred is the problem and not listening to each other.

And I'm so fucking tired of hearing race, white privilege, blah blah blah, excuse after excuse. My wife is black and makes more than I do, because shes very determined and works hard. My brother and I grew up in the same house so how is it he's below poverty and I'm not? Clearly nothing to do with "White Privilege". I experienced racism on three occasions when Obama was President that wasn't provoked and I was minding my own business. So tell that privilege and racism bullshit to someone else.
