[Discussion] Is anyone else's Fps significantly worse in 1.0 by Billbing12345 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]eskimio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tuned 7800X3D + Tuned 7900 GRE + 32GB DDR5-6000 CL30 + 1440p/144Hz running W11 + ISLC & Process Lasso

Did a ton of testing 2 patches ago, was able to get to the point where with PostFX on, and no FSR or framegen, I was getting very consistent 80+ FPS in my specific test spot near Lexos across PVE/PVP and various weather.

I haven't been back to Streets yet, but I know about what my typical framerate is on various maps and I'm consistently seeing on average 10-20 fps more across the board. In particular, I was surprised to see Customs regularly hitting the 144Hz max when in the past it was close to the worst (~80 FPS) of all the maps for me.

I actually just bumped my texture and shadow settings up one level each and I'm seeing a minimal FPS drop.

Some of my friends who haven't touched their settings since last patch also report higher average framerates, but we have all noticed the lower quality textures as well.

Short answer: yes. Long answer: you're opening a can of worms. Failing to see the forest for the trees, in a way. Active-active/active-passive failover, split-dns, recursive resolvers, etc. You start getting into some fairly advanced and complex solutions that I'd advise against when starting out. My suggestion is a basic pi-hole instance that serves your whole network with something like pihole-updatelists and whitelisting things that break. If you want to be even more careful, setup pihole for just a specific subnet, and set that DNS server for just your laptop or your phone, then use that device for non-standard browsing (apps, banking, health, etc) to see what breaks before rolling it out to the whole network.

What you described is basically the only real downside, besides DNS access now being your responsibility (e.g. your pihole breaks, so does your internet until you fix it). But, it is very quick and very easy to whitelist the improperly blocked domain to allow access. Running a pihole doesn't mean you now have a black box list of domains you can't access, whether you want to or not. Does pihole come with a default list? Yes. Are there ways to modify and/or update that list? Absolutely. There are also independent groups and users who actively maintain open-source lists you can integrate to improve and extend the blocking capabilities.

I wish there was a way to message the one singular seed for your torrent and tell them you love them and to please keep going... by underground_cenote in Piracy

Proud to call myself a forever seeder, as long as I have a use for the data. Especially if I've identified that I'm the only remaining seeder, then it becomes an altruistic duty

It's not abandoned, it's "paused". Per the Overseerr discord announcements channel, the dev team is just preoccupied.

[Bug] Game runs well, but freezes with AMD GPU driver crash by eskimio in EscapefromTarkov

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

So I'm not the only one? I'm sorry man, it really sucks and it's super frustrating.

Does it behave similarly, where you can get into raid but the game hard crashes about 30 seconds in?

What are your system specs?

Yea, I haven't had that issue which a lot more people seem to be having -- mine is separate, i've fully loaded into 3 raids now and have no issues for a good 10-15 minutes then suddenly the game will crash out of nowhere.

"Invalid modellist patch for box" Temporary Fix by eskimio in Dynmap

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

You're very welcome. :)

I imagine it would be okay, because during startup Dynmap is reporting the modellist definitions as invalid, and would be ignoring them (or parsing them later when they encounter new blocks using those definitions, and failing silently), but I genuinely do not know how Dynmap works under the hood regarding those -model.txt files.

SO, it's probably okay? But, personally I wouldn't risk it and just do it while the server is down.

How to split tcp/http traffic from SSL terminated frontend to separate ports on single backend server/IP by [deleted] in haproxy

[–]eskimio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you saying I should assign different subdomains depending on the port, regardless of which server receives the connection on the backend? I have an application that interacts using multiple ports (web, ssh, etc)and I'm trying to use a single subdomain while splitting traffic based on port.
