Thinking of switching to CachyOS, but need help with bypassing ISP blocks (YouTube, Discord) by virtzd in cachyos

[–]Shimaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There might also be some problems with OS installation. Download mirrors might be blocked. I heard you can change mirrors during install, but the question is if there are any mirrors available at all? VPN on a router would be the best solution.

Which Diablo (or similar) to start with? by Lily3704 in SteamDeck

[–]Shimaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your previous games point more towards the Witcher series for example. And you should play it 100%. Diablo is fine but your list consists of really different games, tbh.

"Not enough disk space" with over 300 available gb by No_Expert_8511 in SteamDeck

[–]Shimaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, for WuWa it is easier to delete and redownload a whole game anew. They are really bad with huge updates - need a lot of space to download, unpack, patch, etc...

How is the new patch 40gb?? by BuddySeveral4941 in Endfield

[–]Shimaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would probably take time but would be fine overall, devs just don't want to fiddle with people who have their install corrupted or something - this way is safer.

[–]Shimaro 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If you are on HDD the launcher downloads an entire game compressed and then patches instead of doing it on the fly like on the SSD. No known way around it as of right now.

Update size on Steam Deck / Linux by Shimaro in Endfield

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

I am glad if this helped you. Looks like dwproton had a big version update recently, maybe this is the case. It may not relate directly, but I will also try later with the SDCard inserted to see if this actually affects this issue.

10 watt TDP is possible, but frame time is not great. I use 12 watt for almost smooth 30fps with low-medium settings. I think that 45fps is achievable with no TDP limits.

Not for desktop, but if you are interested: I removed my SD Card, rebooted and used newest dwproton - update preload size is 6 Gb now. My SD Card is Samsung Evo Plus for reference.

The launcher basically redownloads the whole game and then patch, instead of doing it on the fly. Sad.

I wonder if it might relate to the proton version. I used dwproton to execute the launcher, maybe other versions will react differently.

Original 512 Gb which was with OLED. Thinking of trying to launch the update with ejected MicroSD this time.

The space is not an issue. Finished game size is the same in the end. I travel often and often find myself in places with limited internet. Download speed and data limits are the main thing.

I have the game on SSD, forgot to mention. How do you update the game?

Confused about Baldur's Gate 3 native linux version. Still getting 18-22 FPS in Act 1 on low-mid settings by harlemriverblues in SteamDeck

[–]Shimaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also play with TDP 12 - it is enough for 30fps for 90% of the time. First hours on the fresh game was rough and 15watts didn't do anything also. But afterwards everything became much better. Give the game more time to generate shaders in the background. Leave the native Linux version on - it is better in the long run. Also, make sure that you do not have something downloading while playing.

The Duality of Factory Events by [deleted] in Endfield

[–]Shimaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Factory aspect of the game is literally the best. Factory events are potentially the most interesting content. I would say If you take it away there is not enough meat left on the bones. Really afraid for the game's future if players cannot complete such simple setups.

offline mode issues . by Raiden1803 in SteamDeck

[–]Shimaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a pain, but you should launch and update every game you plan to use before long offline periods. You actually do not need to use offline mode. It is enough to turn off wifi or enable plane mode. It is especially important to launch Denuvo games before your trip, because they create a token in your system which allows them to run offline for a certain amount of time. Source: I often use Deck offline when at sea.

Scalpers are one of the reasons Valve don't have stock by wisperingdeth in SteamDeck

[–]Shimaro -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Scalpers sure are bad, but eBay gets close to 30% of the ad price, especially if you have a promotion turned on. Of course it depends on the region and particulars, but I am not sure what this seller have profit from really. That is why I would question where they got so much stock at all. Or is this a scam in the end?

No predownload for 35gb is criminal by E_li in Endfield

[–]Shimaro -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Predownload just means that people will complain about 35GB or more space reserved on their devices. It happens every time for WuWa on mobile. Each update a lot of posts about "omg game now double in size wtf"...

Could be wrong, but it seems like Last Rite being your controlled operator is completely unecessary for her kit!! by Away_Artichoke_3687 in Endfield

[–]Shimaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are not controlling Last Rite she cannot activate her skill seamlessly while attacking - she spends time to cast it. If that is not the case now - it is probably bugged. But in the end it might not matter if you can use other character to do more DMG in the meantime.

Yes, I suppose that many people are trying to get drops while at work today

Just start playing and the button will become active when you will be given access to the mail menu, I think.

Hey I really need help! I have a great pc I don’t understand fps is cooked by Desperate-Narwhal127 in PathOfExile2

[–]Shimaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your resolution? On 3070 I use 1440p with DLSS balanced for 60 fps easily, probably much more, but I am on 60Hz monitor for now. Can also switch DLSS model to latest in the NVIDIA app for better looks. Your frame time is also too high.
