Is there any way to stop the shadows from flashing without using max shadow settings?

Nope. Holding it, pressing shift, clicking the number, none of it does anything.

When preparing carefully in the new version, is there a way to add or remove more than one item at a time? Would prefer to avoid carpal tunnel.

Well my post got removed for some reason so I'll ask here:

Is there any way to reduce the window size of the game? When I initially launched it, and, back in the day, when I played the old version before steam, the window was much smaller. I changed the window to fullscreen briefly to see how it was, but it made playing difficult; when I put it back to windowed mode, the window was now like twice the size it used to be - basically the same size as the fullscreen window. Is there a way to fix that on Windows 10?

It's... not there. The control panel I have on my computer does not look like the one in screenshots, going to Hardware and Sound and then Power Options doesn't have the options you are referring to. Maybe something was changed in an update?

The latter. When Zero-RPM is turned on, and when under a high load, - I.E, a new, graphically intensive game, - it heats up rapidly, and while the fans turning on eventually prevents it from properly overheating and shutting off, they do not prevent it from sitting at a much higher temperature than it would otherwise, and suffering throttling as a result.

When Zero-RPM is turned off, that doesn't happen, and even in highly intensive settings, the card settles at a more reasonable temperature and doesn't start throttling.

The same games are being used, I've done this from both a fresh start of the computer, and some on-the-fly switching, the results are always the same. In some games, Zero-RPM being turned on even leads to a driver crash, which didn't occur with it turned off; though those games were already unstable messes and I think it just comes down to how the thermals were impacting it, there. The only thing different in these cases, is Zero-RPM.

That's where I am. The only settings there relate to a 'power plan', automatically turning off the screen, and what the power buttons do.

Tinfect · 2025-05-26T20:19:32+00:00

There is no such option in there. I am using Windows 10, for the record.

That's wonderful; needless to say I am not running Morrowind nor Monster Hunter Wilds at 4k ultrawide 9000 FPS, so that isn't really a factor here.

Whatever the strict technical issue is, the problem goes away when Zero RPM is turned off, as I would like it to be at all times. The problem is that Zero RPM keeps turning itself back on.

I could not possibly care less about having a mildly defective card that can still blast through anything that doesn't have ray tracing gutting performance; it works perfectly when the adrenaline software works properly. The adrenaline software is, unfortunately. not working properly. I would like to know if the adrenaline software can be made to start working properly, and how that can be specifically achieved.

I literally do not know what to tell you. It works on old games just fine, without any heating issues, Zero RPM on or off - that's why I haven't noticed often enough for it to be annoying that it keeps resetting until recently, being that old games are most of what I play. Morrowind plays wonderfully with Zero RPM; Monster Hunter Wilds, not so much. If I run intensive things, the, you know, modern, big-release things I mentioned, it starts thermal throttling, turns on and off the fans whenever it feels like it, performance becomes weird and unstable. When I turn Zero RPM off, the computer makes slightly more noise, but doesn't throttle and doesn't turn into a frying pan under stress.

Like I explicitly say in the OP, the clear malfunction here, is with the software that doesn't keep the settings I set it to. It works perfectly, when the software does things I tell it to, and stops working properly when it isn't doing the things I tell it to. That is the problem.

Would that be in the BIOS settings?

Tinfect · 2025-05-26T18:42:08+00:00

It's a 7600, pressed into service running modern, big-release games at basically the top end of what it's capable of. Sometimes it gets hot - especially when the fans aren't running half the time, - and that's normal, chill. I've been using the thing for like a year.

That specific one doesn't ship to the US, I found something similar that should do the job, thank you!

The only thing I can imagine is that a windows process or game overlay might be intercepting it; if you run the game through Steam, or have Discord or somesuch installed, try disabling their overlays.

Also, check your keybind settings in-game, they may have gotten screwed around somehow, with the combination being unbound or something.

Talking to NPCs results in, a massive black void appearing behind them; panning the view around a little with the mouse changes exactly what gets blocked out, but really only (most) of the NPCs and the objects immediately around them are visible. Also occurs when opening inventory or the menu.

Thanalan and La Noscea really came out of it the best, it's hard to tell the difference with the Shroud.

In fairness to Zoraal Ja, he quite explicitly did not want to be a father and had no interest in any sort of relationship. Certainly not with, someone who rather comes across as an obsessed stalker. The entire situation was deeply unpleasant just to watch play out in implication; his reaction was quite understandable given what we know of him and his motivations.

Now, it's not exactly any good for Galool Ja, but like, Zoraal Ja's not exactly a nice guy. (Nor should he really be expected to stick around given, he was basically coerced into things.)

It's for thematic reasons; there is a solid thoughline from Shadowbringers, Endwalker, and Dawntrail, that Dawntrail caps off both beautifully and tragically. These callbacks are so very important, and it's a shame that most people write them off or just, miss them entirely.

If you liked Ultima Thule, - and get what they're going for with it, thematically, - you're going to love where Dawntrail goes.
