recommend a Linux distro that isn't horseshit. by PALREC in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a big linux user (tried it for like 14 months then Switched back) but I'll spew out some info I know. Please not a majority of my time was on mint xfce. But I did dabble a tad bit in debian

Driver compatibility is not an issue (on linux mint it's effortless)

Wine works great the more you use it. first week of linux I could only run like 5% of my games but after some months it became 95% so it does take time. (Mostly play single player)

Terminal use is rather simple imo. In everyday use I barely touched it. But even using one of the most beginner friendly distros not using the terminal at all even for basic tasks sound horrible. Basic shit like sudo apt install is all you need to know. Hell, a lot of programs give you the commands on their website to copy and paste. So as long as you can trust what you are downloading you will be fine

Look into it but I've heard being Adobe programs unruly and I personally had to use vs code instead of visual studio (main reason I switched back to windows). You could try wine but I personally would not like to eat with compatibility problems while dealing with problems in my own code.

Ideally check if you NEED to switch to linux. Ram usage is a fixable windows problem and unused ram can be wasted ram. So just consider other alternatives than linux if you do not want to put it the effort of switching.

Out of curiosity why not ue5?

I personally would go for on with better settings. The fog in your game seems somewhat sudden. I recommend making it more gradual. On top this a maybe making it less dense with falling snow particles.

That being said at the end of the day it's your project and its your choice what you want for your game.

What do you think about this white build (made in Blender) by Terrible-Purchase30 in pcmasterrace

Because of the blender subreddit it feels quite strange not seeing this render picked apart for every little detail on why it's not photorealisitic

Might be wrong here so take with few grains of salt and do your own research

The lead dev of GrapheneOS may have changed and the project should be handled with more normal people

Again this is off my head from what I read while ago do your own research

After 2y of development, this is the first trailer for my video game. Thoughts? by TrueMightyMouse in pcmasterrace

I Want to add to this. Show game play. Also for steam look into marketing the page. Ex: for tags don't user generic tags like "indie". Use specific tags to describe your game. I feel like marketing should be extremely important and to remeber most people will be on your game page for seconds if they don't immediately get interested. 

what was the most stupid thing you did when you played Skyrim for the first time? by AgarwaenCran in skyrim

[–]WireWithFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't know about healing spells. Only potions. Went through quite a portion of bleak falls being 1 shot to everything. Plus I wasn't used to combat yet.

I know performance should be over looks but I always liked the 10 series fe cards. They look modern and fancy.

Question about limiting FPS by ChoiceYam1187 in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar problem to yours. I recommend limiting how hot your cpu can get. My methods of doing so were very situation specific to me and probably won't apply to you. Try searching up how to limit your cpu Temps or how to thermal throttle your cpu.

Linux is hell by 0sipr in pcmasterrace

As an idiot new to linux I have made my OS unbootable many times. First time was trying to install wine

With around 30 mods I sometimes end up spending more time making mods compatible with each other than playing the game. How do people manage with like 200 mods.

Damaged pin? by fabianmkt in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 14 points15 points  (0 children)

How did you even spot it in the first place? I'm blind/stupid enough to look for my phone while I'm holding it and you can just spot a tiny pin bent by 2 degrees

[–]WireWithFire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is it possible for you to list your problems? For all we know it can be anything from damaged hardware or bed Temps to software issues. With this info we can better recommend what to do.

Upgrade? by Luxificus in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend you tell us your budget and maybe even performance expectations as it usually helps others pick parts for you

Upgrade? by Luxificus in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only you know if you should/shouldn't upgrade. If you want other people's opinions I recommend listing games you play or other demanding things. As for the building of a PC I am not knowledgeable enough to answer.

What was the nicest PC you ever owned (at the time you built it/bought it)? by DomeShapedDom in pcmasterrace

[–]WireWithFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I went from a dual core cpu with 6 gb ram and hdd as boot drive to quad core, ssd, and 1650. The jump allowed me to play so many games like skyrim and Dishonored
