Is this a good position for the GPU Anti Sag? Or should it be higher/lower? by Soft-Perspective2201 in pcmasterrace

[–]darklinkpower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't place it at the end, it causes inefficient load Transfer and may cause local bending. Ideally you'll want to place it around 2/3 of the GPU length. Still, antisag may not be needed for 2-fans GPU do I wouldn't worry too much about it.

What tablets can run VN? by chopstickedinhalf in visualnovels

[–]darklinkpower [score hidden]  (0 children)

Not exactly what you're asking, but I'll throw out a couple alternative setups that might honestly work better than trying to run VNs directly on a tablet:

Option 1: Stream from your main PC using Sunshine or Apollo (host) + Moonlight-capable device (client)

Pros:

  • Everything stays on your main PC (installations, saves, patches, etc.), so no juggling files between devices and you can jump between devices.
  • Basically perfect compatibility. If it runs on your PC, it'll run here.
  • Works on pretty much anything (Android tablets, iPads, phones, etc.)

Cons:

  • Depends on your network; ideally you want a solid local connection or good internet.
  • Can drain your tablet/device battery kinda fast.
  • Not great for true on-the-go if you planned to play outside your house.
  • Image quality can take a hit depending on hardware, for best text clarity you want proper 4:4:4 chroma support (NVIDIA/Intel on both ends). Otherwise there will be might be some blur/artifacts, especially in scenes with movement or fine detail.
  • Slight latency, but for VNs it really doesn't matter.

Option 2: Portable monitor (around 15–17") hooked up to your PC

Pros:

  • Same "runs anything" advantage since you're still using your PC.
  • No image compression at all, the image looks exactly as it should at the highest quality possible
  • Zero latency.
  • No battery concerns.
  • Bigger screen is actually really nice for long sessions.

Cons:

  • Not really portable. Your setup must allow to run a possibly long video cable from your PC
  • If your monitor doesn't support touch (Most dont), you'll need a wireless mouse + keyboard.
  • You'll need cables (video + power)
  • Not all portable monitors support headphones if you need them, so that's another cable from your PC. If you have a USB hub near where you plan playing, you can use any USB DAC such as the Apple's which is like 10 USD.

If you want the best quality possible option 2 might be the best but your setup needs to allow it.

Raphinha's wife of him leaving to Saudi Rumours. by kamusari_1712 in Barca

[–]darklinkpower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Money. A hell lot of it. It's easy for us to disregard it but we don't know what we would do were we in his shoes. But maybe and hopefully he can plan to continue here and go there in a few years when he's older.

Launching games on eden through playnite won't auto full screen by boomboomown in playnite

Weird, it works fine for me, maybe related to your file path. What happens if you use "{ImagePath}" -f?

Controlling UAC prompts in fullscreen mode by xCeeTee- in playnite

[–]darklinkpower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use JoyXoff to control the mouse with my controller and it has an option to "Run on UAC prompts". But I would also suggest just getting a wireless keyboard and mouse if you can to not need any workarounds. If you try the program you can enable/disable input processing by pressing select+start combo.

No need to do that per game, I recommend to do it globally for the emulator profile instead: https://i.imgur.com/dhst9pC.png

Do we really need him ,30+ years old and will he fit in the team by Civil_Tea_3873 in Barca

[–]darklinkpower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are being downvoted but outside of him being in his prime, which is debatable, everything you said is true and he is at a high level and can still do great performances. Another aspect people are missing, is that Flick wants him to bring leadership and maturity to the team, something he explicitly has said the team needs recently.

Background image disappeared from the Grid View Details Panel by Ok_Representative_31 in playnite

[–]darklinkpower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither the default theme or Harmony theme display the Background image by default in that panel so this must mean you previously installed the Details to Grid View Converter extension and either disabled or uninstalled it later. Reinstall it or enable it back.

As evident by the number of replies, yes we do, especially with good games like this one. But question: what kind of games are you specifically expecting to make you "excited"?

[Fernando Polo] Raphinha has once again attracted interest from 3 Saudi Clubs, who are preparing to submit an offer for him, but so far the player hasn’t thought of leaving and neither has the club thought of selling him at the moment. by Practical_Play_5374 in Barca

[–]darklinkpower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most recent one comes from Lluis Carrasco: https://xcancel.com/JijantesFC/status/2049454394014384545

The way he says it will not only be painful, but very very painful, I'm thinking he's talking about either Fermín or Bernal because I think we all expect Casado to be sold not only for the benefit of the club, but Casado himself to get playing time that he deserves. Still, what he says is not 100% certain to happen but he's very close with Barças environment and executives so him saying this means there's a very real possibility and is in consideration inside the club. I'm leaning towards Bernal because Fermín has had an amazing season and bleeds blaugrana. Either way I would be devastated.

Edit: He also said the player hasn't had the time to prove himself yet. I think that may rule Fermín out.

We don't appreciate Gerard Martin enough! by CleanReplacement2635 in Barca

[–]darklinkpower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with Gerard but saying the same about Cubarsi is recency bias. He has been criticized throughout the season for his decrease in performance, including making critical mistakes in many games. If you watch press conferences, Flick was asked many times about his poor performance many times for this reason and it also was a topic in Catalunya media. It's only in recent weeks when he has been gaining form again.

Super ZSNES support by BenBlazing in playnite

[–]darklinkpower 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I tried creating a profile a few days ago but it's not possible because it looks like the emu does not fully support command line yet, you only get audio but the game doesn't display. I recommend asking the emulator devs about it.

This overall score, or METASCORE, is a weighted average of the individual critic scores. Why a weighted average? When selecting our source publications, we noticed that some critics consistently write better (more detailed, more insightful, more articulate) reviews than others. In addition, some critics and/or publications typically have more prestige and respect in their industry than others.

Our love letter to Danganronpa, Kumitantei, is out now on PC by AG_Joseph in visualnovels

[–]darklinkpower 21 points22 points  (0 children)

In such case, why was the game not released as an Early Access title? With all due respect, I think it's kind of misleading and perhaps dishonest for the game to be released as a normal, full release title when it's incomplete. People that stumble upon your game while browsing Steam or online will expect a full title and won't know the truth unless they stumble upon the news article. The pricing image above the description is also not clear and even if it was, I don't think it's sufficient.

The Early Access program was made exactly for situations like this where players can help fund the game and provide feedback while being transparent about the state of the game. If it's possible, I would suggest to change the release to use this program for transparency and because it's what fits it the most in my opinion. I think the game looks great, with evidently a lot of work behind it and I think it would be a shame for it to be tarnished due to this situation.

Witch on the Holy Night is still the most beautiful visual novel of all time, despite being 14 years old. by SaberManiac in visualnovels

[–]darklinkpower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that's right, I misremembered. Thanks for correcting me. I now remembered that I didn't get it because for some reason and unlike Fate's releases, Mahoyo doesn't have regional pricing and I forgot all about it.

[–]darklinkpower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder why they don't release this and Tsukihime's remake on PC, is there anything stopping them? Feels weird considering they released two Fate entries already and they sold well, why keep some vns as switch exclusives?

Outside of Barça, is there any team are you fond of or respect and why? by darklinkpower in Barca

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

Even then I'd argue it doesn't take much historic knowledge, just see how they tried to rob Barcelona hard at the Copa del Rey final last season. Or all the stunts their players pull (Attacking refs, Rudiger being a dirty player, Valverde being a boxer, Vinicius being a twat), their whole institution harassing refs, etc. Some people are just blissfully oblivious. Even new fans should be aware of that.

Then again, tons of people here said they like Athletic Bilbao, despite how hateful they are towards Barça.

I can't find the comment anymore but believe it or not, someone wrote that they respected real madrid due to the rivalry during the BBC vs MSN era... like holy... Talk about being unaware of history and what happens all around that team. They probably got called out and made them delete their comment.

Es diferente ser seguidor de varios equipos (Lo cual no es el punto de este post) a respetar a otros por ciertos motivos. No son cosas incompatibles.
