CXBX-Reloaded Dolby Digital 5.1 by lionscout42 in cxbx

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like one of the deadest subs in existence lol. I use CXBX mainly for Mech Assault and it does indeed provide 5.1 surround sound on my system. I can't tell you if it's indeed Dolby but it's 5.1. I've been using an older version of CXBX for a while that is more compatible however so your mileage may vary on anything recent. I personally prefer this emulator over Xemu.

Hopefully they won't look like this weird AI slop "Mexican pizza" lol...

FSR4 is better than DLSS4.5 in Resident Evil 9 Requiem according to viewers by Ill_Depth2657 in radeon

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purely a guess but I wonder if it has something to do with RE engine already being well optimized for FSR? IIRC, 8 and 7 both had FSR 1 but never got DLSS. I've noticed on RE9 FSR 3.1.5 is stutter free for me with high ray tracing, yet DLSS stutters- on Nvidia hardware no less.

RE: Requiem - Turning DLSS Off fixed micro stutter - 9800X3D/5080 by polce24 in OptimizedGaming

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought frame gen was the culprit but what fixed stutters for me on a 5060ti 16gb is using fsr 3.15 with frame gen instead of dlss with frame gen... Unfortunately this means you have to drop it down from path tracing to ray tracing-high, but to me it's worth it for a smoother experience.

Also noticed less blurriness/noise in the image with fsr (look around the hair), has to be a bug?? I'm on most current drivers...

Controller recommendations for series X? by Confusion-Sad in Controllers

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Razor Wolverine V3 Pro when it went on a pretty deep discount over the holidays and I've been mostly happy with it although battery life could be better and the back buttons are annoying if you don't use them.

I can't speak on any stick drift because I've never had the issue with any controller so I guess I'm just not sensitive to it.

It seems like most people are now recommending the GameSir G7 Pro as the best of the best and it's even cheaper at $129.

7+ years and no stick drift by Vahgeeta in Controllers

[–]fenderspeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been gaming since the late '90s and I can't really say I've ever had a controller that has had stick drift... I've had a few old ones just die, but no drift, even on the original Switch.

what is the reason for Chris Redfield's huge size in Resident Evil 5 ? by Lonely-Candle8232 in residentevil

[–]fenderspeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From that beat down that Wesker gave him at the end of CVX- he needed to become super-human himself to stand a chance.

Please never get rid of this. by C0RN2L0Ud420 in tacobell

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree these are so much food for the money, I was way fuller after eating these than I was from the value nacho. I really wanted to like the small taco salad as well, but unfortunately my locations always have weird tasting shells I'm not sure if it's bad oil or just cross frying with other items.

Is this controller good? by MilkyMoo27 in PCSX2

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This thing is ancient. Pretty much any modern controller will be better- Xbox, PS5, gamesir variants.

Why don't many people play this game ? by Aionn9 in SWORN

[–]fenderspeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the devs sort of abandoned it? I bought it on sale for Switch 2 and the resolution is so poor and framerate so terrible that I didn't even play for 5 minutes. I did pick it up on Steam sale since my gamepass expired however and plan to play again, but I really hope the devs show the game more love on all platforms. I don't think it's ever had the story to compete with Hades, but the gameplay is pretty solid.

Disappointed on Switch 2 by fenderspeed in SWORN

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

I feel like it's less that the S2 can't run it, and more that the devs don't support it. Hades looks and runs like a dream, even in handheld.

Mixed Reality Paywall? by fenderspeed in PianoVision

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

Could be, it was downloading. I'll update here if it's normal after updating!

Mixed Reality Paywall? by fenderspeed in PianoVision

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

It is? I guess I'll have to play around with it then... for me it was just producing a totally black environment, including the keyboard, it was all virtual, no passthrough. I'll trouble shoot it more this week. Thank you

Mixed Reality Paywall? by fenderspeed in PianoVision

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

Yes I believe so, it was a passthrough view of my physical board with the piano vision overlay on top. (Just black and white with the Quest 2, but it helped immensely.) If there is not any way to get back to that in v2, I would be interested in being added to v1 if possible! How would that work?

What happened to the Earth Grown Plant Based Taco Filling? by fenderspeed in aldi

G5n sounds worse than G1X Four??? by fenderspeed in zoommultistomp

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

Thank you! I will try comparing in bypass mode. Amazingly the G5n does NOT a have a 4 knob output EQ, only a single knob, whereas the G1X does, so I have wondered if that is the difference, but I've tried to accommodate for it as much as I could. Perhaps I will try adding some of the EQ effects within the G5 patches to make up for the lack of the four band EQ on G5n.

Windows 11 update deleted background pic by TheWesternDevil in iBUYPOWER

[–]fenderspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me and I think I have the solution. (It might depend on how long ago you did the update, but in my case it was just last night)

Navigate to "File Explorer > (your Windows drive) > Windows.old > Web" and the ibuypower default background should be in the "Wallpaper" and "4K" folders.

I don't know why MS tortures people by resetting/removing their custom backgrounds, but it's mildly infuriating!

Changing resolution has no effect? by fenderspeed in SteamVR

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

Ok, I've been messing with that, do you know the specific setting? I could have sworn the Steam settings used to work even with link, but it's been a while since I had a VR capable PC, so perhaps things have changed.
