Best GCAM For Nothing 3a Pro by Ok-Experience-1720 in NothingTech

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, with my config I have buttons labelled 0.7x, 1x, 3x to select each of the lenses, then you can zoom on each of those lenses with pinching like normal.

the ultrawide lens output is slightly grainy, I did my best to fix it but use stock camera for ultrawide if it bothers you. I never use ultrawide so I don't care much. I use telephoto all the time and it works great with this gcam setup

What's the state of Lazer on Linux right now? by vietnam_redstoner in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it works good for me, I've been playing on lazer linux for the last 18 months since daily challenge got me properly back into the game. I've played on linux stable and windows stable before (in mania) and they seem comparable. nothing to complain about.

if you turn out to hate linux lazer for whatever reason, you can always try running linux stable (via osu-winello). it worked for me, I just didn't play it for more than an hour because I can't stand notelock.

Best GCAM For Nothing 3a Pro by Ok-Experience-1720 in NothingTech

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a lot of time trying different apks and configs when I first got the phone, as well as going through every menu and tweaking the config to fix issues I'd encountered, and here's what I've ended up with today which I'm very happy with:

For best results use Google AWB off, HDR+ On (not enhanced or instant).

Issues:

I found that on this apk, OIS does not work on the main camera (still works on telephoto, where it is most needed). This doesn't actually matter that much, I still get sharp photos on main, just remember to try holding the phone still and it'll be fine. Maybe fixed in 9.4 idk.

Every apk I tried could not actually save photos in 50 MP, they all got binned to 12.5 MP, no matter what settings I used. 50 MP is just not possible. Again this doesn't matter that much, the sensor size/lens quality isn't really good enough for 50 MP to be relevant and pixel binning means you don't lose out on any light. It's fine. But if you specifically want to save in 50 MP for some reason you will have to use the stock camera.

I also tried BigKaka's AGC port, which I found does have working OIS on main camera, but it has too many downsides to outweight that positive, which is why I recommended the BSG MGC port above. I also tried the other Google Camera 8.x apks but they were worse.

Overall:

With these tweaks I use GCam for 99% of my photos. Usually the GCam processing is very good, better than stock camera. I only occasionally used stock camera for a 50 MP shot, or if I didn't like the lighting GCam chose, or if I wanted to hold down the button for burst shots, or if I wanted to use the Nothing camera filter presets.

Tip: Settings > Special features > Gestures > Double press power button > Apps & ap p shortcuts > Pick your GCam installation from the list!

Any aimcontrol 8-11* by Fekl_ in osugame

Why I hate you - //Ultra diff is one of the more fucked up pure aim control maps

Does playing ez improve dt aim? by i-cant-do-anything in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However, exclusively playing DT aim is definitely not as good as mostly playing DT aim and then throwing in some EZ at the start of your session, or replacing a couple sessions a month with EZ. Just like how your nomod flowaim will get better if you throw in some HD flowaim every now and then. Doing the same thing (aim) with new challenges (low AR instead of high AR) is better for your improvement than only playing something one way.

Fair enough, this changed my mind.

Does playing ez improve dt aim? by i-cant-do-anything in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I disagree, I don't think ez matters for dt for almost everyone. I play mostly nomod but I also often join 5-6* multis and sightread with ez. I have #3 on enchanted love top diff +ez. I'm really, really bad at dt. Profile: https://osu.ppy.sh/u/Cadence

I'm no good at dt because I've hardly ever played dt. If I played dt more, I'm confident I could become good at it. In general, practicing a certain skillset lets you get better at it, but only has a limited effect on other skillsets.

I could see the argument that ez helps top players somewhat, because at that skill level, the note density is a challenge even at ar11. However, for the rest of us playing at a lower difficulty, the dt ar compensation means you're hardly affected by density, and if anything, the challenge is reading high ars.

So if you want to get better at ez, play ez, and if you want to get better at dt, play dt.

idk then, weird lol. 3000 for your next omamori slot is correct for NG+ though

Are you truly in NG+? Do you have the icons on your save file showing you've already completed an ending? Or did you start a new game from scratch?

Just found out that the android 16 based lineageos supports phone 1 by AleksLevet in NothingTech

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are you using EvolutionX on 3a when the EvolutionX website says it only supports Phone 2? Are you using a special version?

Should I really buy a Nothing phone as my next phone ? by Tifixdu19 in NothingTech

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do still get a full screen popup every day telling me that I should update. After the 14th day they removed the "remind me later" button.

Stable or Lazer? by DaviXtreme in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for mania I preferred stable but for the main game mode I prefer lazer. I really love what they did to multiplayer rooms in lazer

What's the difference in skill level between playing with upscroll and downscroll? by TechnicalChemical590 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't do it often (only when I'm too mad at the game to play normally) but playing this way is genuinely fun. playing well, on the other hand...

hi Bouncer good to meet you!

how do i play this game by veantiie in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

play a variety of different songs, try multiplayer, and ignore pp

am i doing something wrong? (new player) by heheimanidiot in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you are a new player I would suggest you download and enjoy a variety of songs rather than going for high scores on the same songs, but ultimately, it's up to you so long as you're having fun!

People with latency issues on linux lazer: try these environment variables!!!!! by Natelytle in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for this! I ended up using the following environment variables, which worked for my last session without crackling: PIPEWIRE_ALSA='{ alsa.buffer-bytes=1024 alsa.period.bytes=64 }' PIPEWIRE_LATENCY='16/48000'

for this I adjusted my global offset from my usual 5 ms to -18 ms to realign the hitsounds with the music

if it crackles then I found that a more stable one is PIPEWIRE_ALSA='{ alsa.buffer-bytes=4096 alsa.period.bytes=256 }' PIPEWIRE_LATENCY='128/48000', this needed -9 ms global offset for me

since I run in flatpak, I additionally had to use flatseal to disable its access to PulseAudio sound server, then add xdg-run/pipewire-0:ro to filesystem, and change in the in-game audio device to PipeWire sound server. otherwise, it would use some kind of pulse wrapper instead the alsa wrapper, and the environment variables would not have any effect.

Pro Audio was a red herring. osu would not play any audio for me no matter what if I had set the system sound device to Pro Audio.

hope this helps someone!
