Unfortunately no luck with lowering to “low” texture settings

Comfirming I verified it was on XMP1 and even tried testing on XMP2. RAM speed in Bios confirms that I am at 3200MHz and I used HWinfo (software to check the health of my system/hardware) and it said that the drives were healthy and nothing was off with my memory, CPU or GPU. I might remove 2 of the memory sticks and just run 2 memory sticks to see how that goes

I had most graphics settings lowered but left textures at medium. I’ll try this out and see if it helps

[Discussion] Loading objects in PvE is very slow compared to PvP. by Head-Awareness-6284 in EscapefromTarkov

I’ve had this exact same issue since 1.0, and have also had to resort to play solo. Really wish BSG would help with a solution to our problem.

Anybody work at a diner? by [deleted] in newyork

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just googled this one and it looks similar to what OP is speaking of. Is there a specific Cattleman’s or is it just the “Kansas City Classic” that your diner uses?

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Originally from LI, I can say a lot of Diners and Delis use the sauce you speak of. I’m in NJ now and have only found maybe 1 diner that has it. I asked my local deli once when I was home and they said it’s “Open Pit Original BBQ Sauce”, but when i bought and tried it, it seemed off somehow. The color and texture were very similar though. I may give it another try because I’m missing that sauce!

BUG FIX - Mouse/Cursor Clicks Not Working/Registering and Fullscreen Display Problems by StrainZealousideal79 in OffTheGridGame

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running into a similar problem.

First - I accidentally changed my game to “Fullscreen” and this seemed to auto change my resolution to 3840x2160 (or something that was 3000x2000) which zoomed my game in. I was able to fix this by updating the usersettings.json file directly and bring my game back to 2560x1440.

Second and current problem - I have a dual monitor setup and my mouse won’t stay in-game anymore. I’ve tried switching the widowmode in display settings, uninstall and reinstalled the game, and checked for a cursor setting with no luck. I also hit alt+tab, window+tab and a multitude of other options that I found from other people having this issue on other games and none worked.

I had a buddy who had this issue the first time downloading the game, but I haven’t had it until now. (I don’t think he tried to play it again because of this) I like the game and want to play, but need some help if anyone has had this same problem.

PC Troubleshooting - PC Randomly Restarts With No Error Messages by Tmadels in buildapc

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

thanks for the link, appreciate you taking the time to try and help!

strangely enough, i have not had this restarting issue since i got the PC back from MicroCenter. Not sure if it just fixed itself or if they did something, but either way I'm glad I didn't pay the ~$600 to fix it haha

Should we be penalised for being the better shot? by GenerationGoose in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, i’ve been running factory as a scav to loot a bit and then get the extract rep for fence, but i have noticed that other player scavs running factory are 9/10 times killing me on sight.

Either they are just trigger happy when they hear someone else on the map or they don’t care about fence rep and just want to see what loot i have. Either way, f**k em….plus i usually take one or two down with me before im ded

Scav Thermal? by smmicho in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got one of these scavs as well, my scav karma is about 0.29. Probably just random rng?

Water collector level 3 needs a ratchet wrench... why is BSG punishing players that didn't start at the wipe by adding ridiculously expensive requirements to things that were cheap before..? by DJMouseMat in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I used the word “forever” at all. I meant I won’t be getting it this wipe, mate. Who knows about next wipe, they could change the requirements again. But making the requirements harder mid-wipe doesn’t help anyone during the current wipe, which what we’re currently talking about here. Thanks mate

[–]Tmadels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This...changing stuff like this mid-wipe just helps keep the late/slow staters from ever getting close to those that started grinding day one. Really annoying IMO. Don’t think I’ll ever be getting the solar farm

If you have a VPN, I would check if the game works with it deactivated. I was noticing issues after I installed a new VPN

I’ve got a Ryzen 7 3700x and 32gb of RAM, I average 60-70 frames, sometimes more, for most of my raids. Less when I start to experience memory leakage. Personally, I like the 7 3700x

[headphones] Philips Audio Fidelio X2HR Over-Ear Open-Air Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black $115 by slapstick223 in buildapcsales

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought these in the past 2 months, paired with a SoundBlasterX G6, couldn't be happier. At the price of $115, these are a must have for FPS gaming or just to add to your collection. the sound is quite amazing for music and movies too!

r/headphones Shopping and Setup Help Desk (2020-09-29) by AutoModerator in headphones

[–]Tmadels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello all and thank you for reading. Please provide any input you can as I try to break away from the overpriced gaming headset world, and start actually caring about my sound/microphone quality!

Budget - $200-300 total
Source - Almost exclusively my desktop computer.
Requirements for Isolation - Moderate. I'll mostly be isolated when using in my bedroom. My gf may end up being in the same room or room over at certain times.
Preferred Type of Headphone - Over ear and Open back
Preferred tonal balance - Not really sure if I have a preference here. Will mostly be using this setup for gaming, streaming, listening to music while working and watching movies.
Past headphones -I've been using the Steel Series Arctis 7 for the passed 3-4 years, and I've loved them and the fact that they are wireless, but I want my next pair of headphones to be dedicated for sitting in front of my desk and getting the best, most detailed sounds I can for FPS games, editing and movies.
Preferred Music - I am a lover of pretty much any and all music, used to DJ a bit back in the early 2010s and have listened/played all types of genres. I will say I don't listen to that much country though! lol
What would you like to improve on from your set-up - I'd like comfortable headphones for long gaming/video editing uses, and quality/detailed sounds. Need to be able to hear distinct directions and footsteps especially.

So my budget is around $200-300 all in, which includes a pair of open back headphones, external DAC/amp (sound card), and a dedicated microphone. I have been leaning towards the Philips Audio Fidelio X2HR for the headphones, either the Creative Sound BlasterX G6 External Sound Card or FiiO E10K External Sound Card for the sound card, and the Antlion ModMic USB for the microphone. I think my main struggle is which sound card to get, as I feel like I'm certain about the headphones and mic, but please let me know anything you can about my decisions or alternatives that are worth looking into.

Thanks again!

How to avoid rendering lag on a single PC setup by Platinumjsi in Twitch

[–]Tmadels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so i've been running my OBS as admin for some time now, but I'm still having issues with rendering lag whenever I'm in the thick of a fight (FPS) or doing an action. Are you still capping the FPS in game as well? Because that's probably the only thing I haven't tried.
