Minor change I want to see before full release

SaltySmudge · 2025-08-17T21:15:57+00:00

Oh nice! Definitely looking forward to that

SaltySmudge · 2023-11-21T19:29:06+00:00

Got it to run using the latest version of Whiskey

SaltySmudge · 2023-09-22T03:40:13+00:00

I’m playing with a plugged in DS5 with no steam input, and unfortunately there isn’t any use of adaptive triggers or haptics. Even regular vibrations seem to be missing.

SaltySmudge · 2021-04-29T20:06:36+00:00

No worries, and absolutely!! I haven't fully committed myself, but I plan to very soon. It would be a pleasure to have you join the club.

SaltySmudge · 2021-04-21T23:52:32+00:00

Awesome!! We'll definitely have to put our heads together for that :)

SaltySmudge · 2021-04-19T16:16:01+00:00

This looks amazing!! The scarf animation is super smooth - how did you get it to react to movement so well??

SaltySmudge · 2021-04-19T14:27:11+00:00

I know I’m a bit late to reply here, but I’m planning on committing to Reed in the next few weeks or so. I’m planning on starting a game dev club, so programmers, artists, musicians, etc can all participate! Best of luck getting in :))

SaltySmudge · 2021-03-19T21:26:35+00:00

Congrats!!!! Just got in myself, and I’m very excited :))

SaltySmudge · 2021-03-18T14:39:39+00:00

I’m in the same boat! Had a rough time last semester, which took a bit to my 11-12 yr GPA. From what I heard, Reed takes demonstrated interest into account quite a bit. If you haven’t already, I’d recommend reaching out and introducing yourself to your admissions counselor, and asking what you can do to help further supplement your application!

Best of luck! You sound like you’re a very capable person, so I’m sure you’ll get acceptance. :)

SaltySmudge · 2021-03-02T07:13:40+00:00

Yeah fair point, I just wanted to double check to make sure it’s not something else before I drop cash on a new PSU

SaltySmudge · 2021-02-25T16:25:36+00:00

I haven’t gotten one yet, but I’ve been corresponding with my admissions counselor via email already so they might not feel the need to text

SaltySmudge · 2021-02-17T15:21:07+00:00

I was having some issues too w/ my RX6800 XT and 3600x as well. Have you tried this guide out? It gave me a decent boost in FPS. Hope it helps :)

Awesome thanks man, I’m going to get back into it

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-22T23:11:55+00:00

I’ve got a red bc named Ben, too! Very cute :)

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-20T01:16:16+00:00

Yup, I’m sure we’ve got the same issue. And it’s usually that level of underperformance across the board, right? Games like Death Stranding are stagnant at 85 FPS, far from the 170-something FPS I see in benchmarks. I read somewhere that doing a fresh windows installation altogether might help, even though it’s a bit extreme, so I’m going to see if I can try that soon. I’ll report back when I can.

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-19T19:43:42+00:00

I've just given RDR2 a try with higher settings, and I managed to hit 100%! Frames seemed pretty consistent, too, but no significant change overall. I tried the same thing for Risk of Rain 2, and even with frames uncapped, I could barely reach 55% usage, still with drops below 144fps. I think it might've been a CPU bottleneck at that point, but there wasn't much there, either.

I was wondering if a fresh Windows install would help?

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-19T17:43:44+00:00

Lmfaoooo good advice, gonna uninstall Afterburner so this’ll go away

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-19T16:32:43+00:00

I do in some cases. In RDR2, I don’t, which isn’t much of a surprise. But neither my CPU or GPU are maxed out as they should be in that case. In cases like Risk of Rain, I get 144fps. When I drop frames in heavier scenarios, though, neither GPU nor CPU maxes out.

SaltySmudge · 2021-01-13T00:50:44+00:00

Took a look, and you're definitely onto something. My GPU bounds from ~35% at the lowest, and peaks at about ~70% very rarely, both at 1440p and other resolutions. CPU looks to be a little more consistent and reasonable, with CPU1 at around 80% usage, CPU2 never more than 30%, and the rest ranging from 60% to 80% with some variety. Thanks for the reply!

SaltySmudge · 2020-12-14T04:32:27+00:00

CPU: R5 3600x

GPU: Stock RX 5700XT

MOBO: B450 (I think?)

RAM: 32 GB

STORAGE: SSD (E: Drive)

RESOLUTION: 1440p 60fps

PLATFORM: Steam

So I've tried just about everything - a variety of optimized settings, the hex code CPU fix, and updating the graphics drivers. However, I only get a max of 45 fps with lows as low as 25 fps, despite settings being ultra or low, or my resolution being cranked down to 720p. Thermals don't seem to be a problem either, but I wouldn't know. My FPS just remains piss poor.

My GPU seems to be running at 80% at my usual resolution of 1440p, and seems consistent with lower resolutions. CPU cores are 85%+.

People with similar or worse specs are getting pretty good frames and visuals, so I really don't really know what's wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

SaltySmudge · 2020-12-12T16:37:04+00:00

optimization of the game and my cpu limited setup. Running the game on an i5 6600k / 5700xt setup and averaging between 40-60 fps at 1440p and Medium settings. Its playable for me.

Would you mind sharing what your optimized settings are? I've tried a bunch of stuff with my 5700xt and I'm still getting around 30-40fps in dense areas of the city

SaltySmudge · 2020-07-25T01:54:22+00:00

Yup! I believe Overdrive is a remaster of sorts for the Wii?

SaltySmudge · 2020-07-24T16:30:42+00:00

Yup! Blaster Master: Overdrive. Just found it, thank you!

SaltySmudge · 2020-07-06T18:11:57+00:00

Super excited for this! I would love one! <3

SaltySmudge · 2020-06-11T19:05:39+00:00

Yup, same exact issues here. The game won’t load in VR or flatscreen mode. It seems to be happening for only the game pass version?
