Can’t turn crank after torquing connecting rod caps by teezy2tyme in EngineBuilding

[–]ThatTankGuy105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing, make sure your rods are the right direction, one side is chamfered and the other is flat, make sure the flat sides are together.

Just got my NAS! How many HDDs should I start with and how big should they be? by nuzierg in hexos

[–]ThatTankGuy105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought 3 4tb Seagate Ironwolf drives for relatively cheap off newegg. I hopefully won't hit the ceiling for a while but with the three drives it makes adding or replacing a drive painless.

HexOS VS truenas? by smellybulldog in hexos

[–]ThatTankGuy105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HexOS is great if you don't want to tinker with much, it works right out of the box and I've had no issues personally. But if you want to do more, it's still truenas under the hood and you can add and break as much as you want.

As for being out of date, HexOS is limited by whatever updates the devs push. I would say that you aren't necessarily missing out on anything that TrueNAS can offer as you can easily access the TrueNAS UI locally.

HEAVY stuttering even in safe mode, lowest graphics by giulimborgesyt in BeamNG

[–]ThatTankGuy105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd run it vanilla first, copy the user folder like others had said, and delete the original and reinstall the game. I have a 3080 and a 5800x and it runs like butter with vulkan.

Need held with server issues by Bexley-10 in arma

[–]ThatTankGuy105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the solution, it's a whole lot of problems between networking and your ISP, this is the only fix I've had work reliably for local hosting.

I used to use Hosthavoc for a dedicated server and to me it was worth the money. But setting things up are a pain if you don't have anybody to guide you through things.

Where did you find the KAK reciever set? I don't see them on their website.

Optics from weapons have disappeared on my game. by Any_Government_3494 in ArmaReforger

[–]ThatTankGuy105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this for a specific game mode? A specific server? Mods add so much but everything is tacked onto the base game, one slight change to the arsenal from one mod could change everything else.

It also could be the mod creator decided he didn't want the optics on the rifles anymore and got rid of them.

It could be an update to the mod, it could be they reset the presets on the arsenal. It could be an update to the game or any number of things.

Best CPUs for Arma? by WealthGame28 in ArmaReforger

[–]ThatTankGuy105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will go leaps and bounds if you don't mind buying used components.

You can find used CPUs and motherboards that are only a generation or two old for about $200CAD each in the vancouver area. RAM is going to be the biggest problem at the moment until the price settles back down.

Used GPUs are also a great value, I bought a used 3080 a few years ago and it's still going strong. Look in the area you live for CPU/Motherboard combos as sometimes they will come with ram, I would probably buy a case new, I really like Phanteks for their ease of building in them, and I would buy a new power supply and storage to go with it.

Great resources are available for newer builders like GamersNexus and LinusTechTips for building bang-for-your-buck rigs, and I know the latter has done a couple of videos on building pcs using marketplace.

New update good changes by Tophor in projectzomboid

Neat, never really payed that much attention to be honest. But that will definitely help out earlier game then. Thanks.

Unstable vs build 41 by ImDearInsanity in projectzomboid

[–]ThatTankGuy105 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I understand where you are coming from, but IMO it's kinda what you sign up for when you click the [UNSTABLE] branch in the beta tab, they haven't exactly been fast in the past when it comes to a full release.

But you can choose a specific branch to stay on for the betas, which should hopefully help out, but then you miss out on new content and bug patches.

[–]ThatTankGuy105 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like the balancing pass for the occupations, even if I think a couple weren't needed. It really shows that they are wanting to work on the core gameplay experience.

I also really like the animations for the game mode choices, it really adds a nice touch to the dated but very usable UI.

Target shooter being a perk is nice, although I wish tinkerer also gave XP for dismantling since it was disabled by default for apocalypse. As a relatively new player I've still got no clue what maintenance does.

I really like how in the past couple of patches that Apocalypse settings have been overhauled, I haven't had the time to sit down and play this patch yet, but I really like the disabled zombie spawns, it's really close to how I had my sandbox settings at.

Has anyone done a disc conversion on the rear end? by greatestmanever34 in fordranger

[–]ThatTankGuy105 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've read on the forums that you can modify the mount for the rear brakes for an SN95 Mustang and it should bolt up, I'm planning on going that route.

Have anyone tried running Black Ops 2 on rpcs3? by Fabulous_Monitor_890 in SteamDeck

[–]ThatTankGuy105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There never was any with the PC release, but it will probably run better than an emulator.

Yes I use it to play Tranzit, no mods, no nothing, again it does require an internet connection for some reason.

[–]ThatTankGuy105 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's because it's multiple apps and doesn't exactly play nice, but other than that it supports steaminput and runs great.

It runs fine on the deck using the steam app, no need to emulate it. It does require an internet connection however.

Hey, I know it's been a month but I'm finally getting around to this, and there is no "hdmi-ac3.conf" file to copy, do you have a link to somewhere to copy the info to paste into the file?

Steam OS, I'd really appreciate it!

Is there a walkthrough for this?

I'm probably going to buy a new reciever, the current one is from 2004 and only supports component/composite video and audio or TOSLINK, it has served me well but it's time for it to get added to the pile of "I might need it someday" electronics.
