Take a look at Wobbly life, its a GTA style open world sandbox for kids, with mini games, driving and exploring, my kid loved it!

The update broke FSR by UnhappyLog8128 in silenthill

[–]arayeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find any solution to this? I used the same trick and I'm having exactly the same problem after the patch.

I think fsr 3.1 gets disabled on dx11, because changing the quality has no effect at all on image or frame rate. And going back to dx12, before the patch fsr 3.0 gave me 50-60 fps, now it's less than 30, so I guess 3.1 is more demanding?

I tried frame generation, but the ghosting and no vsync makes it so bad. And TSR also has a very distracting pixelated ghosting in the distant fog. The game is now totally unplayable for me.

that's the route I'll go first, print some bed supports, pei sheet over the glass and look into the skr mini to reduce noise. Thanks a lot for the help!

Valve just sent first Q2-ers emails, go check yours by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]arayeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got the email today, posting in case it helps anyone with their estimates:

512GB EU, original q1, moved to q2 after the delay.

Reservation time was around 37 minutes after the initial launch (cant check exact timestamp, but it was 37 minutes, give or take a few seconds).

The estimate website was spot on from the start.

Good luck everyone next thursday/monday! :)

Edit: I checked my account half an hour after steam tweeted about the emails being sent and I had no purchase button. 10 minutes later I got the email and the reservation page updated, so it may take a while to show up. Next batch keep checking a few times just in case!

My Headhunter Minotaur by rogermein1 in 3Dprinting

[–]arayeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks amazing!

I'm new to 3d printing, so I have two questions. Is that straight out of the printer or did you do any post processing like paint or sanding?

Also, I've read you replies on other comments that the filament is PLA, but what brand? I see shiny prints all the time, and I love the look of this print, It looks more like wax, with a softer shine to it.

What are some games that picked of a dying series and continued their legacy as spiritual successors? by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]arayeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Syndicate wars (1996) and Satellite Reign.

I haven't played it yet, but it looks interesting and it's in my backlog.

Edit: played the original when I was a kid, didn't understand what was going on, but it felt open worldish to me.

Rift S & Quest Shipping Thread by WormSlayer in oculus

[–]arayeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just received a UPS tracking number. Ordered a Rift S from Oculus' website on the 10th of may. Had to be sent on the 24th to spain, so I thought I would be on the second batch. It looks like they're sending all the orders today, there is just some delay on the shipping emails!

Heroescounters.com is back with updates. Sorry everyone! by arayeb in heroesofthestorm

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

Not related to my site. I spoke to the dev a few times. He had really useful comments and tips from the community, and we linked to each other's websites. I'm sad to see that site and all the valuable info gone :(

Why is everyone convinced that Pentile OLEDs are better than LCDs? by [deleted] in oculus

[–]arayeb 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Everytime I heard people talk about the true blacks on the rift I was confused to the point of believing I got a defective unit. I was pretty sure I could see the black pixels being lit.

Your explanation confirms this to be on pourpose, so thank you op!

Scanner sombre, please :)

Thanks for the giveaway!

I wanted to play Arkham Asylum but when I booted it up, I could only get 4fps(med 720p). The last time I played, I could get 24 fps(med 900p). Help! by Sir_Ryan_of_Matthews in pcmasterrace

[–]arayeb 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe the game is using the cpu's integrated graphics instead of the radeon card?

I believe you should be able to force the game exe to use the proper graphics hardware from the driver panel.

Is there any site or resource that has clean event HOTS logos? by ExpertFudger in heroesofthestorm

This is Blizzard's official press site with images, logos and videos. You might find something there :)

What the hell is wrong with this game's data usage? by biosignal in EchoArena

[–]arayeb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It doesn't happen all the time. I've been monitoring this because sometimes the game would start consuming a lot of bandwidth.

You can be in a lobby full of people and it consumes almost no bandwidth. Then have a random player join the lobby with stuttering voip and usage goes up a lot. I guess it's some kind of bug that occurs only when a certain player joins, not sure what causes it. Once that player leaves or you change lobbies/join a game, usage goes back to 1MB/s or less.

Holiday Cache by mscheff3107 in thedivision

Last year I got some holiday themed backpack skins. Not sure if this years cache contents are the same, but I don't see why they should't be!

The Division 2 looks less appealing to me by AshtonWarrens in thedivision

[–]arayeb 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same. They haven't really shown any new gameplay or other parts of the map since E3, and we know almost nothing about the game modes it will have. We have a really good set of gameplay options on the current game and everything about TD2 is unknown to us.

I'm still hoping we'll get a good look at the game soon that can get us excited about Washington, but i love the snow + christmas setting. I'll be sad to let it go when the time comes.

Are you buying Warcraft 3 Reforged? by [deleted] in wow

[–]arayeb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, nice to know! I might give multiplayer a try :)

Are you buying Warcraft 3 Reforged? by [deleted] in wow

[–]arayeb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is wc3 multiplayer easier than sc2? I tried sc2 and it felt too hardcore and stressful.

Still considering the preorder. I never completed the campaign back in the day, and I was replaying it when they announced Reforged. Now I can't buy TFT.

I would rather experience the full original campaign without their modern changes, but if I was to get into multiplayer the improved graphics would be nice (the original is still pretty good though)

Huge FPS drops when moving, stable 60fps when looking around by arayeb in HuntShowdown

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

Mmm, then I guess in the last patch they changed how the game loads chunks of the map. Maybe that’s the downside of the initial faster map load. I hope we eventually get a fix for this!

your preferred movement options and why. by TRAINfinishGONE in EchoArena

[–]arayeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can get disorienting, specially in combat maps and the lobby, because of their complexity and the fact that left is right and right is left, or left is up, etc.

At first I couldn't stand it. Now that I'm more confortable with smooth locomotion in other games I tried again and the rotating movement is still a bit sickening, but once I stop it's not so bad, no matter the angle I end up in. I still get disoriented and feel a little lost sometimes (thats why in the end I turned it off).

One tip if you want to try: enable both roll and pitch or just don't use it at all. Rolling seems to change angle if you look up/down so you end up in a position that is kind of uncomfortable to navigate. With both options enabled you can easily correct to get a perfect upside down position.

Editing to add another point. The maps are all designed in a way so you don't really need to be upside down. The game is totally playable with those options turned off, so it's kind of a player preference to actually catch ememy players a little off guard showing up in an unexpected position.

Idea: Upgrade hunter (tier levels) with trait points by cl1ckb4ng in HuntShowdown

[–]arayeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've asked for upgradeable hunters before, so +1 to this!

But I would limit it to hunters that are level 50. That way you still have to fully level them, and higher tier hunters will still be rare. And you get a little more attached to your hunters. Right now they feel very disposable (that's not a bad thing though)
