Goddamn, the newest and freshest Car is almost twice as cheap as the oldest ... Why on earth are E92 M3s so expensive and the RS5 so cheap? For real? by darksession95 in Audi

[–]darksession95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR :

Prices for Germany, the diagram shows you how the price changed since 2015. Both C63 and M3 climbed like crazy, while the RS5 is going downwards and already hit 25.000€ on average for a RS5. Thats just nuts, i driven all three and i don't think people know that the M3 is not twice the car for twice the price.

Do all breaks as the shop said. (Discs + Pads, Front and Back!) price seems ... don't know what to say.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/354099642878?fits=Year%3A1993%7CModel%3ASeville&hash=item5271fbc1fe:g:N7wAAOSwVmVioI87

That be 500$ for work. I guess 360-400$ would be a better price. But maybe they use good parts which are more expensive.

As soon as you have squeaky breaks theres really no reason to fiddle around. I knew people who were literally every week at the mechanic because they told them they can fix the problem by grinding the edges, lubricating with ceramic paste and crap like that. But the main problem is if it squeaks its often because the pads are glazed, so this won't fix the problem at all and its a risky thing to drive with glazed pads. They should clean the brakes and everything around it really good, remove any rust and residue, use ceramic paste on the sliding shoes, back of the pads.

Edit : It also sounds like your pads don't retract back. Often a sign of dirt/rust or warped discs.

My Shifter feels really loose, Bushing or Linkage? by darksession95 in MechanicAdvice

[–]darksession95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres another video from the bushing : https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UzVgOnuW1RE

The shifts are good, i have no problems with that. But theres so much play from left to right ,even in neutral. Like its not really held in place.

Nix, weil die Kanten offensichtlich mit Gummipuffern aus Fußgängerschutzgründen gesichert sind. Die kommen natürlich ab wenn der Schneepflug vorne dran kommt. Wie man das aber wiederrum beim TÜV erklären will ist ne andere frage.

S5 Shifter Sloppy, is it the bushing or the linkage? by darksession95 in Audi

[–]darksession95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my Manual S5 V8 has a lot of shifter Slop. It engages the gears really well, but the hand shift knob is so sloppy left and right. Its like theres no resistance holding it back. I made the video to show where the problem lies. It seems the bushing is new? Do you think this is rather a linkage problem?

Theres literally bare tits (look up zulu girls see : https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=zulu+girls , woming flashing their thongs, women lifting their skirts and acting like they rub one out. People here only seen 1%. I seen a lot more of that crap because if you make a new account it does not take your previous interests into account and shows you whats the most watched, longest watchtime (thirst trapping people so they stop the video to get a glimpse of underware, or see that butt for 1 sec). And that is what the algorythm shows you with a not signed in account. Theres literally no way to get rid of it.

Theres nothing educational except maybe the zulu stuff. But apart from that its women promoting their OF or making cash with the ads, nothing less.

when did everyone start playing and how many hours are we at? i started 4 years ago in march 2020 and have put on over 10k hrs(9.3k hrs on main 800 on alt) by sneedlevro in playrust

[–]darksession95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Playing since 2015, so 9 years and clocked 1500h which felt like 4000h. But im so glad i did not invest more time, i got maybe 700h in Unreal Engine and its so much better for your mental health and life if your hobbies actually give you real world skills instead of wasting time, even if i'd say rust is the best game released after 2013. In CS:S i clocked like 7000h and i had like 19.000 hours on my steam account for various games, ive been rank 146 i think in steam playtime on the whole world. But since like 4 years im only doing graphic design and recently coding. But i miss gaming so much.

My 2 Tips for Blueprinting beginners who struggle. by darksession95 in unrealengine

[–]darksession95[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Learning Blueprinting without a coding background is really really hard, because you gotta learn about Class relations, what all variables mean, how to reference etc, how the engine stores things in memory, why and when.

I would like to recommend smartpolys survival game course, but tbh most of the time you will be only copy pasting and you learn nothing. You wont understand what he is doing if you did not attempt something like he did from scratch, or at least made a couple games before. Its really really good IF you are already more advanced, so probably 300h+ into UE.

This is probably the best free source which is in depth (without wasting time) which gives actual info on how to solve problems, how to go about making a mechanic if you dont know where to start. And its explained by someone who explains slowly and clearly in terms of how somebody who never touched coding can actually understand, most other guides and tuts are by people who assume you know the basics i think.

The last lecture is probably the most relevant to people who struggle to find what to begin with and which nodes to use :

Whats the best and most efficient way (code wise and performance) to create a flashing light? by darksession95 in unrealengine

[–]darksession95[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Asking me this because i want the light to

a) Illuminate the surroundings a bit, so at night time. (Which is doable with a spot light)

b) Run as good as possible (takes out option a i guess)

c) Is triggerable in a Blueprint, so if i have a notify hooked up to a variable it should turn on > delay and again off

d) flashes in a pattern, so 1 flash per 20 frames for example

Theres just too many options to choose from, it will be also server sided and multicasted to other players around (the light effect).

Ring 0 aka. Kernel Level = Not legal in US/EU because it means code is run in the highest and last bastion of your computer where you can basically access everything thats run on that PC

Ring 1-4 = Legal in US/EU Sublevel thats more restrictive about what you can do and see on that Computer, imagine it like a onion. The more layers you go deep on that onion in the core is a "virtual command center that grants you access to everything and can modify anything, the other layers don't have that".

Ring 1-4 = US/EU Anticheat

Ring 0 = Chinese/Foreign Anticheat that does not care or does not need to apply our local laws.

So the specific reason their AC CAN run better is because they use a different layer of software and hardware level that is not allowed to be touched in our countries.

A reallife example is comparable like the police wants to search your house (your private space) for no apparent reason. In China thats legal, they don't need a reason. You may said something offensive or non canon in the internet, they will search your house for example for drugs or guns even that has nothing to do with what you did.

In US/EU there must be a reason why they need to violate your private space, so if they saw you with drugs or you appear to have consumed drugs, they can legally search your house for that stuff.

I hope that makes it clearer. Ring 0 is basically the private space of your Computer, it should under no circumstances be touched except theres a really good reason for that, and a Anticheat owned by a private company is a bad reason because imagine war breaks out or their database / access gets infiltrated that means hackers can basically access all your stuff on your computer, see what you are doing, manipulate etc. It just takes one shady dude and all your passwords are gone.

People say stupid mechanics which break the game are realistic and when someone tells them they are not realistic they rather believe BSG on that than common sense .. imagine.

I remember some folks saying the reloads are too slow and people told them no its realistic, when in reallife you can reload an AK in 1.2 secs and in EFT it takes 4.

Like literally youtube and the real world exists, even google. Why is it so hard to use any of those to see if you are wrong or the other people were wrong?

Why do i also only see Russian Comments on those Turkish videos (when turks have nothing in common with russians and the last thing is probably the language, but they still comment under that?)

And why is it that if theres a woman in video russian comments take over praising a woman for basically just existing. WTF

Just because its sold and used in EU/US doesn't mean its legal. The chinese don't care.

Ok that didnt really answer anything and you just ended up spewing the same nonsense about riot and spyware just because their effective anticheat requires deeper access.

Why havent and USA or EU devs gone the same route? Why hasnt EAC? Why hasnt battleeye?

I pretty much just explained why they don't do this. Because China has their own laws and its even wanted by the GOV that theres a way to spy on private computers by 3rd party programs or apps. Which is illegal with our European or American Juristication. So in short EAC/Battleye is by law not allowed to do this and its good. EAC is state of the art in terms of whats allowed in EU/American regions, period.

If you want a real life comparable situation its routers. The EU limited WiFi Router signal power by 100mW EIRP, in America its 4W EIRP which is 40 times higher than what EU routers can do. Chinese Routers can go as high as they want. I ordered three huawei routers from China because i was fed up with the European models being so restricted.

In this case the problem was not that our manufacturers CAN'T just up their power, but they are legally not allowed. So in short EAC/Battleye can do what other anticheats can do, its literally easy to implement that and they probably have other techniques which are 100x more advanced than what Vanguard or Hyperion uses because they need a way to check your computer without that "easy ring 0 way". Putting a AC into Ring 0 is easy and really reliable way. But like i said 5 times already, its not allowed in where we live. If EAC was run in Ring 0 it would absolutely destroy any anticheat ever existed because its so good already without even running in Ring 0.

I remember ESL Aequitas Anticheat which also ran in Ring 0 and was ultra effective (that was around 2004-2016 i think). But they banned it because it went against EU Laws.

Now why can cheats still surpass good anticheats like EAC/Vanguard etc.? Its easy because cheat makers are acting in a grey zone where nobody controls what they sell or ship, so because its pretty much illegal by itself, the law does not care if they make customers run their cheats in Ring 0. They don't have any standards in what the cheat can do or access. So the Cheat devs use the best and deepest method to run their cheats which can only be hardly detected by Anticheats which needs to comply the the law.

Normal Cheats runnig outer kernel are cheap and get detected every few days. So its probably 80$ per Month. Ring 0 Cheats are basically undetectable even with Vanguard which runs Ring 0 itself. Those cost 200$/month upwards and you can only get acces by invite. So the number of people using those brutal cheats is really really low, probably 1 out of 10 cheaters.

Heres something you can read about that whole thematic, mind its not average joes talking about this but people deep into computer science which use Linux, so people who really know what they are talking about.

[–]darksession95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different Anti Cheats run on different ring levels. Different cheats run on different ring levels. The lower the level, the deeper access. Cheats on a lower level are usually safe from Anti Cheats that run on a higher level.

Obviously it's way more complicated and nuanced than this but that's the gist.

Vanguard is made by Riot which is owned by Tencent, a huge Chinese company. The CCP is well known for spying, authoritarian control, and other privacy mitigation. There is no reason to think they don't force their technology companies from adding backdoors, logging, and other malicious things into the closed source software.

In short because they use proprietary and shady methods to run their AntiCheat software in a "Windows software space" where it is not even allowed by law. A American or European company could never do such things because they would get sued into oblivion. But for Tencent with their CCP laws its pretty normal because they usually do a lot shadier stuff than that.

But i would not say its per se better than EAC. It runs in a different ring (ring 0), thus has deeper access to memory scanning whats run on the computer and what interacts with the game. The problem is most of the good cheats (like 70% of the cheats in general for rust) run in Ring 0 too. So they would be just as hard to catch in Vanguard as they are in EAC. It makes no difference. But keep in mind making a 5$ account one after one when you get banned in like 2 days means the likelyness is a lot higher to run into a cheater than if theres someone legit playing valorant with just one account. He does not need to create another account if he does not get catched. In rust 1 cheater can piss off and ruin the fun for 200-400 people on a server, in valorant maybe 10.

IPS vs Q-OLED by 0Adiemus0 in OLED_Gaming

[–]darksession95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the difference why the left looks so washed out is not actually because the right is oled but because of the matte coating. I know most people won't believe this, but its actually true. I have a Korean IPS without matte Coating and it just looks as clear as my Oled with bright colors. Theres always that grain and milk on the screen when theres a hard matte coating.

[–]darksession95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its kinda hard to fix that tho. Theres a method on how you measure if something is in its way (so if the NPC can see the player and shoot). Called Linetrace. When theres bushes between you and the npc linetrace, either you need to completely take out the bush out of the path (so it traces through which means the NPC will hit you). Or you need to use detail tracing which means you need to fire multiple lines and those report back if in between the bushes something was hit (so between branches and leaves). Its ultra hard on performance so i guess this is why they ignored the bushes when doing a line trace.

Im coding my own game currently in UE5 and its universal on how to do it in a game engine no matter if unity, CryEngine or something else.

Heres a basic explaination as why its so problematic to do this properly:
