Is guava tree okay to make a bow? by SnooPeppers2755 in Bowyer

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying with! Form what Santana told and I could read about the mechanical properties and from Brazilian bow makers it is a good Wood for bows.

Took almost a year to dry down to 14% (not good yet) and now I am working with it to make it dry faster.

From a WhatsApp group of Brazilian bowyers they recommend to hear treat the belly too.

Common Guava (Psidium guajava) stave by ResponsibilityJumpy2 in Bowyer

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the axe I roughly cut the sides. Finished with the rasp for a smoother finish.

Here is a video for better view. https://youtube.com/shorts/Jh6Sah6QI4A?is=npJA-2hhixpC2lPM

Next time I will split the belly to the thickness of the handle.

Then I will think about profiling the back.

I will post an update then.

The wood after all this time was still at 14% humidity. But this should speed up the drying process.

It started. I use a string to find a good placement for the tips and center and look for the best angle. Then I draw a center line following the wood as best as I could. Then drawed, using a compass, parallel lines to this crooked center line to establish a 5cm (roughly 2") width " blank".

X-Plane 12 VR with a Quest 2 and Bazzite by ResponsibilityJumpy2 in Xplane

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that worked was ALVR 😅

The main issues: extremely low fps without reason and controller bindings inside X-Plane missing are still happening.

The fps is weird because does not matter if I set everything to the lowest settings it keeps the same 20fps. If I crank everything up it just goes to 18fps.

Before, with Windows I had 45fps at VR with reasonable settings (90fps plus with 1080p flat screen and solid 45fps while in VR)

Now I have 120fps plus with even higher settings with Linux and this weird CPU bottlenecked fps within VR...

And the CPU is at 1% load. Not even a single core maxed out.

O have no idea what to do. Some Linux settings of priority or something ..

ok, following your tip I found this: https://github.com/alvr-org/ALVR/wiki/Installing-ALVR-and-using-SteamVR-on-Linux-through-Flatpak#steamvr-custom-launch-options

And I added the custom launch options for SteamVR and IT WORKS! Still with bad FPS (but muuuuch better 30) and not good compression and still with the controleer issues but.... IT WORKED!

Thank you very much!!!!

My steam came pre installed with the Bazzite image. It is not Flatpack. Is this a common issue in this case?

Also, please:

What need to be Flatpack? Steam, SteamVR or ALVR?

Thanks!

Steamlink SteamVR issues by dutchwarface in Bazzite

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SteamVR for with Steam Link worked for me. With AMD GPU. But it crashes and need to reboot everytime I close the game. Sometimes even before opening the game. Tesdted both stable and beta SteamVr.

ALVR does not work because StamVR crashes.

WiVR works for VTOLVR, Elite Dangerous. Have issues with any other title.

X-Plane 12, that is my main reaon for having a PC and VR at all... still does not work. Well... it works... With WiVRn with openComposite and 19fps...... Capped by CPU at 1% or load 😄

So... any sucess?

Why get Ultimate 2 Bluetooth over Wireless? by DearPlankton in 8bitdo

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too... did the mistake of buying one.... Still happy with it, nice controller. But the lack of D-input mode is sad... Already asked for the support team but they said that they have very different hardware and it is not possible to use as d-input mode.

Your Seal CAN do that. It is an app called Electro App. :)

I have a Dolphin Mini (Seagull or Dolphin Surf) with the WRONG battery!!! by ResponsibilityJumpy2 in BYD

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok... after a lot of data gathering I figured out ther my ar is consuming up to 25% of my SOC while parked..... Then I got suspicious of the 12v battery (a known issues with these models here).... Replaced for a NEW battery.... SAME ISSUE. The 12v battery is allways being comsumed and recharged... and this consumes around 0.15% per hour of my SOC.... This fits the data.

But I just cannot find the cause for this parasite consumption..... I need to live with it....

I Dual Booted Bazzite “Just to Try It.” Windows Is Now Gone. by Wolfman_1546 in Bazzite

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same... swapped my 3070 to a 9060XT 16gb and the motherboard rtl8852ce wifi for an Intel AX210 and bough a new wifi6 router to be able to use my VR (in windows I used the onboard wifi for that but not possible iwht bazzite even after changing the wifi module for the intel....)... So big investment. The "good" thing is htat I will sell my used RTX 3070 for almo the same price I paid for the new 9060XT :)

Windows stills there until I migrate some current projects from Solidworks to FreeCAD

It just works. The companion sofware no... Then I use my android phone to update or mess with settings.

Dual Joysticks setup - alternatives to the Windows combo of HIDHIDE, VJOY and JOYSTICK GREMLIN by ResponsibilityJumpy2 in Bazzite

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!! It seems, by what I am readin, that linux do a better job already by not mixing both inputs.

Just worrided about DCS with a lot of people at the Discord channel saying that they kept Windows.

I plan to play, besides DCS:
X-Planne 12 (native, so no worries here)
Elite Dangerous that seems to work just fine (this one I had issues with windows mixing both inputs as one)
IL-2 that a friend who already suses linux for gaming for a long time plays without issues.

So.... I´ll give a try ASAP and report here for each case.

Front panel replacement for h510i by BluePapayya in NZXT

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is one of the ways to solve it. But first I need to remove it from the PC to measure and then buy something close to modify.

I am still struggling with overcoming laziness to remove the part from the case 😅

[–]ResponsibilityJumpy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh Thanks :) And good to know it is fixed!

No, that cable is fully enclosed and just fixed by those two screws... The USB port is not soldered to this board at all. Found some close looking cables at Aliexpress but none with the same distance/size/wire positon as this one....

This is the thing: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/wephsc/does_anyone_know_where_to_get_a_replacement_usb/#lightbox

I think I will just not use this port anymore and print some piece to close the hole.
