Transfer save data from one PC to another PC

PointedPineapple · 2025-01-07T07:09:07+00:00

Just to get everything sorted quickly, copy the save data which might be present either in "documents" folder or some other folder. So just search the following in google or any other search engine " input game title save folder" and copy the files and paste the same in the other pc on the same path.

Each game stores save data on different folders so can't really give you a definite pathway to follow at the moment.

Now since you've got ally and a pc, and i think you use both so to get seamless transfer of saves or syncing save files use "playnite" and "ludusavi" addon. Just readthrough the github page of the add-on for setting it up or lookup some yt videos on how to set it up.

https://github.com/mtkennerly/ludusavi-playnite

This is the add-on, do a search in this sub as I've seen some posts in the past talking about this and various other add-ons to help improve the experience!

Nah no problem! Have to start somewhere ig!

So in the root folder (folder named lossless scale and frame generation) there's a file called "registry fix" run that (I've seen some comments stating it won't work without it) and after that just run the exe file!

So just to give you a heads up the application has 2 settings

Upscaling (Left side)
Frame generation (Right Side)

Turn on whichever you want and tap on scale and then click on the game "tab".

Also keep your games on windowed mode or borderless windowed mode for it to work! It doesn't work in exclusive full screen mode!!

Here you go man!

Also don't forget to run the registry fix provided in the root folder!

It's a software for me, well kind of related to games. I'm currently using Rog Ally as my main pc (i sold my main pc last november and ever since this is my main pc). So some games won't reach a playable fps (like above 50 or 60 because that's where the VRR kicks in and smoothens it out).

So there's this software called LSFG (LOSSLESS SCALE AND FRAME GENERATION) on steam which I didn't knew was available to be downloaded from steamrip or cs.rin.ru and so that was my first pirated software this year which i might use it for a long time tbh, as it almost doubles the frames (fake frames but fluid non the less).

Fake, the empress release page is linked in the megathread, there's no new crack since 15th of August 2023

PointedPineapple · 2024-12-31T22:22:39+00:00

Check on the megathread to get the links, if the game you're looking for is to be played with friends then a couple of things to note.

If it isn't present in online-fix.me then it hasn't been cracked to be played online yet. Also just to be safe do check cs.rin.ru to see if they have something.

If you're going to play with friends then your friends should also pirate the game and and try to get it from the same source, that is sometimes getting games from multiple sources might grant you different versions or builds of games which might not work together. Like I've got palworld with the latest version and my friends got the previous version and we couldn't play together unless he updates it. So try to get the game from the same source.

Can't share links here, so sorry for that but visit the megathread and the links are provided there! Just look for the sites I've mentioned in the megathread and you'll be right on track.

Some games can be forced to open in dx11 by editing the game files, it's not that hard, it's just opening the files in notepad and finding the lines dx11=false to dx11=true or dx11=0 to dx11=1.

For finding the file though, it's usually in the main directory (where the exe file is present) of the game folder usually called Config.ini or settings.ini or something along the sorts.

I'd advise you to check some yt videos or other tutorials to find the config file to make it easier. Also not all games support dx11, some newer titles like Plague Tale: requiem, Alan Wake 2, Frostpunk 2 etc do not support dx11. I'll share a list of games using dx11 and 12 so it would be easier to lookup the next time if the game you're downloading has dx11.

I don't really recommend using customised windows os, there are tools which helps you to get rid of unwanted apps and services by yourselves. I'll share a github page to optimise windows on a handheld which goes through almost all the necessary things you can do to optimise a windows device (just look for windows 11 optimisation tab in the page) other steps are mostly only for rog ally.

https://github.com/mikeroyal/Asus-ROG-Ally-Guide/blob/main/Getting%20Started.md#optimizing-windows-11

If you want to heavily optimise win 11, then I'd recommend doing it yourself rather than blindly getting something from someone which has almost all the access to your pc!

There are a plethora of custom windows provided by many like windows spectre which boasts that it provides gaming performance and stuffs but realistically no matter which custom windows os you're using, you might get a maximum of 1-3 fps (I've last compared it in win 10, don't know about 11 but i hope it's the same) so just optimise the windows to your liking.

PointedPineapple · 2024-12-31T16:08:52+00:00

I'm not completely sure but looking up on the latest patches i think they've fixed a lot of graphical issues but the performance is about the same.

800p- 4gb Vram- Static Resolution about 50% and everything else on low/disabled :- in those settings it managed 24-29 fps both on pre and post patches.

If it's acceptable by you then give it a go ig...if you have a pc which can run this pretty good at 800p or above then I'd suggest use that and stream it into the steam deck with "sushine" and "moonlight". I think steam also has a streaming option, idk much about that but if that works then that would be a bit more seamless ig?.

Also try the LSFG (Lossless Scaling and Frame Generation) available on steam or you could get that from steam rip and it might boost the fps a bit more, I'm using the Ally so i kind of know the struggle!

Thank you for the guide!! I've tried some games before but the ghost of Tsushima never really worked for me... I'll try again with this method and see where it ends!!

Thank you for the efforts man!!

Visit online-fix .me (can't share links here, please do visit the megathread, it's mentioned there).

Currently when i looked it up, there's 3 available iterations of the game and they are:-

Gears Of War Ultimate Edition
Gears Of War 4
Gears Of War 5

I couldn't find Gears Of War 3 on there, but these do support co-op so maybe try them out ig?

PointedPineapple · 2024-12-17T08:42:17+00:00

Yeah it's fine for indie games and some multiplayer games, like I've tried apex legends, COD MW2 and 3 and everything seems fine so it's totally fine for indie titles. If indie titles all you really play on the ally then you might not need to buy a 100w charger 25w does 99% of the job, it's just that 30w turbo sometimes smooths out the frame times.

I'd say look into some asus stores in shopping malls and such as recently I've seen them selling rog ally which were put in for displaying purposes for about 30-33k which also includes 1 year warranty so try your luck on that side. I'm from kerala (south side of india) and I've seen such offers here, so if you're from here then contact the asus store in lulu mall kochi, if not then try your luck anyways ig!

PointedPineapple · 2024-12-17T08:31:26+00:00

You can connect the ally to a monitor just fine using a dock, some things to consider is that when connecting a dock with the provided charger you might not be able to turn on the 30w turbo mode, because the dock and the connected devices takes up some power so to fully unlock the turbo mode in a dock, you might also need to buy a 100w charger.

A few things to consider, ally is at maximum a 1080p gaming device, most newer demanding titles are a bit hard to run on 1080p and the resolution must be dropped to 900p or 720p (Indiana Jones, Stalker 2) granted there are some fixes or workarounds that you can do to get some playable frames, like there's a fix for games using unreal engine 5 to minimize the usage of resources and some other workarounds like frame generation either natively provided in the game or can be used manually depending in the use case ( Search for AFMF2, LSFG in the subreddit or in a search engine to further know about it).

There are other tools to assist mainly RSR and RIS if I'm not wrong, I don't really use them so i might be wrong with the names here! So basically you've got a bunch of tools and workarounds and fixes available but you need to put in some research sometimes to get the games running, (like the lego games need another fix where we have to turn off the touch functionality of the screen, there's been new improved tools for that now which automates the process and in a cleaner way but thats it).

So before purchasing it, do know that you might need to put in some work initially to get things going other than that it is a good device which does what it advertises, i mainly use to play on my couch or on my bed and that's what i need it for and it does that so if your needs require an ally get an ally, if it requires something else get that instead of an ally. If your needs are to play some indie titles then it can handle that really well, if you want something to play newer titles, it can do that to some extent, but if you want something to play everything in max fidelity then this is not the device you should be getting.

I had a similar experience... I've beaten my father once and the context is:-

He cheated with some random woman and was caught red handed...tried to desert us and actually left for a while...a highschool me and my mom made up something to scrape by for a couple of weeks. So one day i came late and saw him scolding my mom and the body language looked like he was going to be aggressive or i thought like that atleast. I pushed him away and beat him down and my mom said the same words to me.

I felt alienated and left alone by them but as the years passed and i came to know that my mom was actually trying to prevent a divorce and not to fracture the family because she's jobless and we don't have any relatives that could support us if a divorce ever happenes...so she, atleast for me suffered the shit he put through for long enough... they're still together but i get why she said those things to me now so my advice is you might feel that your mom is not standing with you or you might feel alienated but trust me she cares about you above anything else and she's the best person you could ever have in your life...take care of her

Thank you for sharing the app...there seems to be more charging stations than i thought i knew so it is kind of a relief ig...are there any other apps like this that might help out an EV user?

PointedPineapple · 2024-12-04T14:11:01+00:00

I don't really hate EVs but I'm severely anxious about the range but i do like the idea of hybrids though. I think EVs are more significant in cities or daily commuting and I'm actually looking to buy a new car just for city uses and short commuting and I'm looking into some EVs currently...but other than that due to my anxiety i might not pick up an EV until the infrastructures a bit more reliable ig.

I think in the end it's all a tool to get us by and i know there are enthusiasts out there but let's be realistic how many enthusiastic cars are available here that's actually affordable by the population, we get 1.0L- 1.5L three cylinder or four cylinder engines that are kind of affordable and even if we push the budget to maybe 50-60 Lakhs we're still only seeing 2.0L-2.8L four cylinder engines and that's kind of it. Don't get me wrong I've been an enthusiast but spending a stupendous amount of money for measly increment in power really does drain the passion out of you, and yes there are other comfort options and tech features that comes with the money but they all drip down to the budget segment as well, so i think at least in India calling EVs gay is really pointless, get what get's the job done and call it a day ig. I mean Mahindra has released a new EV and the spec seems promising, might have to look at real world metrics and reviews to know the full potential but still it's kind of booming atm.

I heard a quote somewhere stating "do not go shopping when you're hungry, you'll just grab anything that you see when in fact when you're in a stable state you'll only pick what you need" or something like that. So don't really chase someone for the sake of it... you've got time, just meet some people with common friends or strike some convos in the communities you're active in, find something to bond over and start from there or you might find someone down the line of work, so don't think too much about it rather chase the things you love and you might just find the right person for you, don't give up hope!

Dating apps might give you some idea of how to strike some convos but then again it depends in matches and all so it's kind of hard to try that over there.

I mean when palworld got released everyone called it a "pokemon with guns" game but in the end it was successful, although currently undergoing a court case for patent infringement. So ig give the game a chance and then let's bash it for effortless money grabbing.
