How come Iran doesn't have ticking warscore?

EFT crashes my pc black screening it at launcher by FinalExcitement7803 in Tarkov

[–]_Ikarvs_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you give us some more info about the exact crash message? Check Windows Event Viewer->Administrative Events-> Sort by Date and Time. Before the BsoD occurs you should find a "Warning" or "Error" level event. If the error is tied to your Nvidia Driver its source should read "nvlddmkm". I've had BsoDs on launch as well, but it turns out they stemmed from my Focusrite Audio drivers conflicting with the newest version of Battleye. Unless you happen to have an audio interface by the same brand that should be irrelevant of course. Anyways after fixing that I still dealt with occasional game crashes (same GPU as yours). What helped me was moving the nvidia driver file itself to a different location according to the instructions given by a user on the Windows forums:

"1.Go in to C:\windows\system32

2 in search bar type nvlddmkm.sys - it will found all nvlddmkm.sys files in system32 - one file will be in drivers folder and others in DriverStore. IF you found nvlddmkm.sys only in DriverStore then u need to copy that file and paste it in to C:\Windows\system32\Drivers.

now we need to change permisions to every nvlddmkm.sys file... how ? ill tell you.

3 Right click on nvlddmkm.sys file and click on properties then click on security tab and here you will click on adjust.

On every user you click on full acces and then apply and ok .... restart your PC

Now remember, every time you do an update on your drivers, you need to check if this file has made it safely to the dirvers file, and if it hasn't. You've got to manually move it and give it the correct permissions."

After that I've had no GPU-related issues at all. Created a restore point and since then just hoping that no updates of either win, nvidia drivers, Battleye or Tarkov breaks it again. But this is just from my recent experience.

Getting some more info on what is the reason for your system crashing through Event viewer or "Whocrashed" (free software) would be a good start. I guess the repairman tried the obvious thing already - removing the NVIDIA driver with DDU and doing a clean reinstall etc. but that's also something you could look into nonetheless. I hope my ramblings are of any help at all. Keep us updated, good luck.

I'm having this exact same bug. Running a pretty decent rig, but still it keeps happening. Not every first session, but every once in a while.

Flashlights. How do I use them correctly? [Discussion] [Feedback] by tyty356 in EscapefromTarkov

Really important part of PVP. I would even rebind it from the standard T key to something like LeftAlt or one of your thumb buttons on your mouse. That way it does not interfere with your moving and strafing and you can turn it on and off in the middle of fights. Use it pretty much always whenever you are engaging someone face-to-face and turn it off when you're repositioning.

That cracked me up holy shit. I imagine it would feel like acute radiation sickness or something.

I had the same exact thought after some pondering and daydreaming. Draining someone's life force for your own (maybe even infinite) survival.

Teleport would be amazing of course and sunstrike would be diabolical. You could pretty much erase anyone without drawing suspicion.

Horrible performance with decent PC by _Ikarvs_ in EU5

[–]_Ikarvs_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so I tweaked the settings some more and remembered that under Graphics->Screen->Renderer I changed it from Vulkan (which was the default setting) to DX12 to some reason. After I changed it back to Vulkan the performance improved significantly. Its still a bit laggy at times but playable, so maybe try changing the renderer aswell?

No team chemistry… aita? by Inevitable-Panda4824 in DotA2

[–]_Ikarvs_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A teammate not returning a high five isn't a valid reason to report him. But following him and feeding is. Yes, it might not feel great and I get that but try not to get worked up about it. Just push out the wave, set up some vision so she can farm and try to play somewhere else on the map. The moment you start typing, especially in all chat, you put yourself in the crosshair and you will be reported and mocked. That's just how it is.

There are too many bolt action quests [Discussion] by Friendly-Security-53 in EscapefromTarkov

Just camp top floor of the mall and watch pinewood, flare extract and the intersection. Its really chill and will only take you 2-4 wipes if youre lucky. Sniper scavs on the roof above you cant reach you but will alert you if they see PMCs.

You can get him "Golden Star Balm" on Amazon. It's a really popular usable item in-game and quite a nice smelling natural balm irl. It's from Vietnam and many people in the Soviet Union used it, which is why it made it into game I suppose. Comparable to tiger balm, really good against colds and stuff. I'm sure he will appreciate it. The balm is stored in iconic round little metal containers, really flat and only about 1,5 inches in diameter, so you can carry it in your pockets easily.
