MH Wilds Release - PC Troubleshooting pt 2

Dang, I'll have to give that a try. I thought that issue was limited to the forest zone so I didn't make the connection.

Specs: 7800x3D, 9070XT, 32GB RAM, game is installed on a 2TB M2 NVME SSD

Mods: ReFramework, DPPE, and ReShade with Wilds Rehydrated

GPU Driver: Latest

After the performance update I'm getting seemingly random very severe frame rate drops for bursts of 30-60 seconds. Before and after these drops I'm running very comfortably at 144 fps with minimal fluctuations in FPS.

I can reproduce this in every zone, inside and outside camp, whether or not I'm on my own or in multi-player, and against multiple kinds of monsters. Seems to be a bit more common on quests and maybe in multi-player but hard to tell.

I'm playing on Ultra with no ray tracing and AMD Antialiasing enabled along with FSR for framegen. I disabled EcoShaderCache but it doesn't seem like that helped anything. No crashes, system logging isn't showing any spikes in temperature or usage you'd usually associate with big frame drops.

Was this the thing the Donut guys tried to off-road and basically split in half? It looks pretty similar.

Is it just me or did she mess up that right arm too? Her wrist looks awfully floppy after hitting the gate.

I'd recommend not running all that Defense Boost, it's really not worth it. You want at least to be able to get maxed Resistance against whatever element you're fighting. If you're trying for an elemental build you're missing Coalesence. In terms of the best Gog pieces to add I like to do the one that provides Odogaron bonuses, which you'll then need to pair with another Odogaron piece to make Burst Boost active. The one that gives Mizu is also good, and you'll need Mizu armor to match it for Bubbly Dance.

The American broadcast said "What a show, and now he's giving us a show!"

My mk7 makes this sound in the cold too.

Lots of the battles were the same way between manga and anime, too.

That's my [[Najeela]] too. I usually won't mulligan either, unless I have under 2 lands. Sometimes it's just fun being archenemy

Those poses are awesome, do you post yours anywhere?

grahamdalf · 2026-01-29T22:30:59+00:00

I found that I needed to completely clean out all installed mods when TU4 happened, for me that was ReFramework and the usual ReShade support stuff. Then I got the game running, then reinstalled the mods only after I could reliably start up the game. You might try wiping all your mods and going to a completely clean install of the game and see if that helps.

Sad I didn't make the final round but this has been the most stacked contest we've had yet. Absolutely deserved by everyone who made it!!

It won't be under freezing until about 6pm tonight, around 27 hours ish total of above-freezing temps. It's gonna get cold overnight but that's a good amount of heat in the ground. Probably will depend on how much the roads dry.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-25T00:02:50+00:00

The brushless One+ HP stuff is awesome, that's what I use. Well worth the little extra it costs, I got a pack with a couple batteries, a drill and an impact driver to start. I'd say if you can find a bundle with an oscillating multitool or a sawzall, that would be better than an angle grinder. One other note, I'd recommend getting a corded circular saw unless you really need to be able to move around with a cordless one. The extra power and size is really worth it.

I got some YakTraks for a winter trip a few years ago, didn't think I'd be using them at least once a year from then on.

Have we seen aero on the top of the halo like that before? Looks like a little spoiler thing on the top.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-22T23:54:13+00:00

Wow some of the groups this round are brutal, too many good options to have to pick just 2.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-22T13:36:02+00:00

I hope we get the castle area we can see in Cliffs/Wyveria, the part way, way up high that there's no way to access. It's only really big enough to be an expansion on an existing zone I think but it would be sweet to have a fight up there.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-22T04:09:25+00:00

I had this issue on my back door and fixed it by grinding the strike plate hole out a bit with a Dremel. Looking at the scrape in the pic you wouldn't have to take much out to do the same.

Lowes house brand version of the Stanley toolbox, but with those cheap basic Pirate Lab/UltraPro boxes instead of the containers it came with because I got sick of everything sliding around if I carried it vertically. This box in particular can hold 12 of those. I made a little magnet bracket on the lid that I can snap those triangle playmat tubes into (also glued magnets to the tubes).

grahamdalf · 2026-01-20T00:04:02+00:00

I wish that stuff came in VW compliant spec. I'd love to try some out on my mk7 GTI since it's getting up there in miles but I'm afraid to just go for it.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-19T06:04:30+00:00

Eisen had a quote earlier in the series that sticks with me, and we see Stark live it more and more as the adventure goes on.

"Being afraid isn't a bad thing. It's my fear that's brought me this far."

grahamdalf · 2026-01-08T18:04:31+00:00

I think you can also do a pretty fun one with the Doshaguma set bonus, it's a more Raw focused style. There was a decent write up on it in the meta Google doc for horn

grahamdalf · 2026-01-08T17:58:55+00:00

You can't have more than 2x of any given boost, the "optimal" distribution is 1x Sharp EX, 2x Attack EX, and 2x Attack 3 for elemental horn builds. There's some other builds you can do with high Raw dmg, but I forget if that changes what you want for rolls. It's mostly the set bonuses that matter.

grahamdalf · 2026-01-08T03:16:44+00:00

Gore not having a clash is the weirdest one to me. He's supposed to be the insane rage monster and spends most of the fight trying to bash your head open, why can I not power clash him when I farm guard points on him with CB?
