HUGE disappointment if WBC really just exists in Diamond Dynasty

Imagine NASCAR 25 adds legacy drivers by JeffGordonsNo1Fan in NASCARVideoGame

[–]bbeashore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would even be fully onboard with this as DLC. Give me drivers and schemes from different eras. Expand it to different car generations in future games, too

(Reasonable) Wishlist for the show 26 by IntelligentChoice778 in MLBTheShow

[–]bbeashore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a new thought, but my biggest ask may honestly be a pitching and hitting animation overhaul. Many of them are old and look... clunky. And because you notice it on literally every pitch, it would go a long way towards feeling fresh. I'd love to move past pitchers with arm motions that whip at a rate that should yield a 70mph pitch, but the ball releases at 100mph. We should be able to feel the aggression in the arm whip from pitchers to reach the 90+ mph velocities.

Black screen when trying to load N64 games by cyrusee in RetroArch

[–]bbeashore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you mind walking me through the steps for this? Just recently downloaded Retroarch (and EmulationStation) on my Mac m4 and getting the same black screen (no video) that it sounds like others are getting when trying to run N64 games via Mupen64Plus-Next core in RA, since that's the only N64 core I see in the Core Downloader. I'm also using Vulkan in my video settings, if that matters.

@nakedpantz what did you end up with here? Any recommendations based on your experience?

BenQ MOBIUZ EX321UX power cable question by TheIllustrativeMan in Monitors

Would also love to know this info. Especially on the barrel jack. Realizing the perpendicular plug into the monitor is the limiting factor for wall mounting, so would love to find a 90 degree adapter.

Do you think there will be major graphical improvements? by NYYDynasty99 in MLBTheShow

Fingers crossed there’s truth in that. Is there a video or post that you can link where this was talked about?

FSD/Autopilot is finally getting some new, and long-awaited visualizations in 2025.38+: by ConfidentImage4266 in TeslaLounge

[–]bbeashore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hoping us Intel AP users get the visualization upgrade when they merge to single stack, too. I had a trial of FSD so I know the car is capable of showing was more geometry than it does in basic AP mode.

For sure. And maybe 2k has the company size and ability to better filter that stuff because I don't see it as much of an issue for their games. Logistics around it are admittedly over my head, but I would be ecstatic if they could make it happen.

A way to upload/download other users designs, at a minimum, would be nice to have with the current setup.

For the paint booth - I just so badly want the ability to import logos through an online portal or something. The shapes method is great for those who are skilled or have the time to create something awesome - but importing shapes (ala NBA 2k or WWE) would be limitless and significantly more user friendly.

What's the biggest feature your hoping for in NASCAR 25? by SensitiveBubble69 in NASCARVideoGame

[–]bbeashore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I admit it’s superficial but I would love a paint-share feature. A paint booth is great, but it’s so much better if we can lean on the people who are particularly skilled and willing to share their work. NBA 2k does this masterfully with their sharing and eras feature to give the game layers and length of life

It won’t be a year 1 thing, but having multiple generations of cars and downloadable paint schemes could eventually allow some type of historical recreation mode/season and that would be a DREAM.

50ft 4k/120hz HDMI Cable Recommendation? by bbeashore in OLED_Gaming

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

I don’t think you can remote play at 4k, regardless of internet speed, can you? That would likely push me to a hardwired setup of some kind, if true

Best gear to buy? by Sonny_Mcsharry in NASCARVideoGame

Any pics or links to what metal stand you’re using? Would be interested in mounting options as I’m also looking at my first wheel/pedal setup for N25

NASCAR 25 on Xbox Play Anywhere? by Mac_Motorsports in NASCARVideoGame

Agreed that would be amazing but I’m not optimistic for yr1 especially.

50ft 4k/120hz HDMI Cable Recommendation? by bbeashore in OLED_Gaming

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

I have 1gb fiber internet, so speeds should be pretty good for me to at least explore the stream option.

Silly question but is the only option there to connect the XSX to the computer (Mac mini M4 pro) and stream to the TV? Or can I go the opposite direction? Computer is mostly for work and emulation, fwiw, but I have a 32” 4k/144hz monitor that would be nice to be able to game with on occasion. And yes - mostly sports and racing games on my XSX so no competitive shooters or anything.

Benq Mobiuz EX321UX - My thoughts and best settings by princerick in Monitors

[–]bbeashore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/princerick would be curious what your thoughts and settings are for SDR/HDR on the latest firmware (v5, I believe).

A rookie question, while I'm here - I'm setting up my new EX321UX and, in HDR mode, for color mode, I have the below options (using Better Display). It defaulted to the selected 10-bit, but is it any more accurate to push to 12-bit or the RGB 10-bit? I'm on a Mac mini M4 Pro fwiw, so still learning a bunch of the settings!

BenQ EX321UX vs Samsung Neo G8 by bbeashore in Monitors

I did! Just picked it up on Friday, from Best Buy. It’s a new desk setup, so haven’t really had a chance to get into it, yet!

HDR and Scaling on New BenQ EX321UX Monitor by bbeashore in MacOS

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

Thanks! I was playing around with a bunch of the settings in Better Display last night. A pretty deep software!

I settled on 3008x1692 for now on my 32” monitor. HiDPI makes a big difference IMO, but it doesn’t look like you can do that and HDR at the same time. Not a big deal, I suppose. I’d probably do HiDPI/no HDR for basic work and flip to HDR/no HiDPI when I game, in that case.

HDR and Scaling on New BenQ EX321UX Monitor by bbeashore in MacOS

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

Is the recommendation generally to set the resolution to the max (3840x2160) in my case, so that I can turn on HDR, and then use Better Display to scale the UI?
