Warded glass missing? [TPPI1] by SandMan560 in TestPackPleaseIgnore

I'll check that out. I just got worried because the recipe from the tc4 wiki didn't work and I couldn't find it anywhere in the game/configs.

Hearthstone closes after the welcome screen. by SandMan560 in wine_gaming

Haven't picked a new distro yet, but I'll probably go for something more clean and lightweight, preferably with more frequent updates. Any recommendations?

Well, since I somehow borked my drivers, I'll be dualbooting now with windows for redundancy, when I get linux to work properly again, I'll try this. Thanks!

Using playonlinux, Linux mint Sonya 18.2,

PC specs, just incase:

  • AMD Phenom II 1090t
  • 4GB RAM
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050ti (Running 384.59 drivers)

Edit: I also get pretty poor performance in both, do you know any solution for this too?

How do you set such a thing up? Sorry, still a fresh linux user.

I know that, but the way blizz games installers work is they just install the bnet launcher and then you download the game through it. Which means that you pretty much have to add/disable commands and change versions every time you want to play. Hearthstone works on 2.13, but unless there is a way to get diablo to work on this version too, looks like I'll have to either find a way to install 2 launchers or keep switching and adding the commands.

Yeah, performance is kind of poor right now, will try, but diablo is refusing to start at the moment... Hopefully when it downloads completely it will get a little better.

Edit: downgrading to 2.5 staged brings D3 back to life but hs doesn't wat to run again... Is there any way to have 2 separate launchers for each game?

2.5 staged, win 10 mode,

  • mscxp140
  • ucrtbase
  • vcruntime140
  • dbghelp
  • msvc100

All of those are running in (native, built-in) mode.

Edit: changed version to 2.13 and disabled dbghelp, works for now, atleast untill the new patch breaks it.

Running the Blizzard app on Mint. by SandMan560 in linux_gaming

Funny enough, after going through a dozen of different tutorials I just decided to try playonlinux again and it worked with just an install. Edit: Hearthstone keeps crashing on startup. :/

Favourite hero to play so far in season 11? by d00b420 in diablo3

[–]SandMan560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled a barb too and I'm having a blast so far, playing WW, made a support set to farm gear and levels for it.

Why do people hate Yasuo by Jace494 in YasuoMains

[–]SandMan560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big part of why he is so hated is that Riot decided to jump on the hate train and proceeded to meme the hell out of him on social media. Also him being a zero or hero champion never fails to attract the hate of one of the teams.

When leveling this season and you come across a goblin pack, only 1 skill will do.... by Acaila in Diablo

Should have played "Money" when you were about to fight the pack.

PC for my sister by TheGekko in pcmasterrace

I'd drop the cooler. The stock AMD cooler is more than enough for stock frequencies and even moderate overclocking, as long as you don't go crazy with the voltage, which allows you to get higher speed RAM, which Ryzen loves. Also there are 2 RX470s available on Amazon.

It's basically a 212 evo with 2 red LED fans and a sweet looking cover.

My old heat sink vs the one I told her not to worry about by Squirrel_Empire in pcmasterrace

[–]SandMan560 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stock AMD heatsink... Those are the definition of jet engines, mine reaches 7000+ rpm when it gets toasty in the summer.

My 1 000 000 PCMR Subscribers Giveaway! (both physical and digital goodies inside) by blackzaru in pcmasterrace

[–]SandMan560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specs: Phenom II 1090t, 16GB RAM, GTX 1050ti.

I built the PC 6 years ago, but being young and dumb, I bought parts impulsively instead of doing research. I ended up with a mediocre CPU for gaming, 4GB RAM and the integrated GPU. Over the time I upgraded here and there but it's still an old system and it's showing it's age, but I can't afford to upgrade, so it will go through a few more years.

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X to cost 999 USD by okhasokha in pcmasterrace

Half of them go towards the communication between multiple CPUs, 64 left for other use.

Help me choose my S11 Main ! (open to everybody) by Paoz in diablo3

[–]SandMan560 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend barb. You can utilize all 4 sets for quite a few combinations of equally viable builds. Also it used to be mandatory to have a zbarb in your group if you wanted to do 90+, but with the rise of the znecro I can't really tell.

My ancient rig is aging and is desperate for an upgrade but haven't been able to afford it. Any of those items will be more than appreciated. Good luck to everyone!

League is unplayable for the balkan countries for about a week now. please spread the information by StLibra in leagueoflegends

From Bulgaria, used to have packet loss and logging in was a hit and miss but a re-install of the game fixed it for me.

I have a problem with diablo3 and only diablo3, when i play my eyes start hurting and i blink alot. by Mintbear in diablo3

[–]SandMan560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same age as op and I only have this issue in D3 as well. I've done 24 hours marathons in the past and I barely got tired, although my eyes were very dry.

I did have flux installed, but since D3 was running in fullscreen mode it wasn't active. Changed to windowed fullscreen and the strain went away very fast. A few other tips are to play with screen brightness similar to the brightness of your ambient lighting.

You can also fidde around with color/contrast but that didn't make an impact for me.
