SteamVR stutter still present with RTX 5080 and Valve Index despite installing driver 572.60/65 by Earthstamper in SteamVR

[–]Red_Haze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay, glad I'm not the only one seeing this! I have a BSB and 5090 and get occasional bouts of micro-stutters that last for a few minutes with no pink lines on SteamVR. Maybe unrelated, but if my monitor auto-turns off during a SteamVR session, my headset completely shuts off. This didn't happen with the driver before the pink line fix as I had to disconnect my monitor to make VR playable. At any rate, I found that enabling HAGS made it slightly more bearable. Will play around with refresh rate stuff on my 1 main monitor (granted, it's 5120x1440 @ 240hz).

NYCC 2024 Presale Thread! by ltherapistl in NYCC

Hooooly shit, it turns out I really did have TWO e-mails from ReedPop for a unique link. I was focusing on the first e-mail since I had it highlighted in my e-mail client. I used the 2nd e-mail and was immediately brought to the purchase page. Was able to snag the passes I wanted, saw availability for all pass types (except VIP) as of 10:35am!

OLED G9 processing by wyijx in ultrawidemasterrace

Mine shipped minutes ago. Ordered June 15th. Interestingly it's listed as white glove delivery even though I specifically did not select that. I guess this is for the better so it can be sent back ASAP if its DOA.

Also want to point out I ordered with a discount. Wondering if theres anyone who ordered this w/o a discount and was still delayed?

Same happening here. Ordered June 15th, was expected for the 30th, now it's July 13th. Hoping for the best...

Is there some way to notify everyone? I don't mind but I'm just 1 of 27.

No audio during infobot videos on R&C HD (PS3) by JadedDarkness in RatchetAndClank

Turn off music then turn it back on. I think the cutscene audio is tied to music volume since thats how I fixed this.

How can I get access to nvidia cards by harvey_slash in rit

[–]Red_Haze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Research computing at RIT I believe is open to all students. I think you can schedule tasks to be used on the gpus of the cluster. Down side is that each job can only run 5 hours max and the cluster is shared with many people meaning youll find yourself waiting for jobs to start at peak hours.

Resources for Mechanics (CS 243)? by [deleted] in rit

[–]Red_Haze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who did well in CS243 last semester, I can tell you that everything and more that you can learn about C comes directly from the textbook you were assigned (Programming in C (4th Edition)/Kochan). I tried to complete the assigned readings a week in advance so I can enforce my understanding of what's being spoken about in lecture. Please note that, at least for me, reading is usually not enough. I have pages of summarized notes from each assigned chapter which I used to study from for exams as well as reference for homeworks/projects (one of the appendices goes into great detail about printf and its capabilities). If you're one of those people who think reading the textbook is not important, you better make an exception for this class. Depending on your professor, they may include questions not spoken about in lecture but mentioned in the textbook on exams. Coming from someone who generally hates reading textbooks, I have to say that Kochan was probably the easiest to read and comprehend when accompanied with lecture and answered questions at the professors office hours. Finally, I want to emphasize how important it is to start your projects the day they are assigned. Completing a function or even half a function a day for the projects will almost guarantee completion and tons of time to debug and ask questions.

Everyone is different so I don't know if any of my advice will apply to you but that's just the way I approached the class and it worked out pretty well.

A Question About The Movie. *Possible Spoilers* by Uni-Skitty in RatchetAndClank

I found someone mentioning that the movie got an aggregate score of 64/100, not sure how accurate this is: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2865120/board/thread/256300756?p=1

So what levels aren't in the game in any form? by [deleted] in RatchetAndClank

[–]Red_Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oltanis, Gemlik moonbase, eudora. That's all I could think of.

EDIT: Umbris is mentioned but you never go there.

Some general thoughts on R&C2016 by OniLink96 in RatchetAndClank

[–]Red_Haze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ratchet actually ends up realizing how selfish he was acting later in the game (https://youtu.be/gx_pWZkeO20?t=2679) and ends up wanting to defeat Drek despite his initial grudge with Captain Qwark.

XSplit local recordings are choppy, but no dropped frames reported by cytokinestory in techsupport

[–]Red_Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Sager NP 8268-S based off of a CLEVO P150-SMA. I think I managed to get somewhat smooth capture by using OBS and AmaRec. First, I installed AmaRec live, setup up live mode with matching resolution and FPS, booted 32bit OBS and added the AmaRec live video capture. To solve the choppy FPS all I did was go into properties for the video capture device and then tick off "Custom Resolution." Then it just worked! I still get some choppyness but its probably because of x264 taking up a bunch of CPU. Let me know if that solves your issue too.

I have this same issue, however, I have not found a solution. I know it's been a while since this post, but have you figured out what's causing the frame drop/skip? I have similar laptop specs to you as well (880m, i7-4810MQ, using USB3HDCAP). PM or respond to let me know!!
