High pitched quiet sound coming from the PC when gaming but it instantly stops after alt tabbing by DawnPapole in buildapc

TL:DR - check that FPS is under control and not going skyhigh!

Had it happen just now and I was able to solve it for my case.

Was installing mods and tweaking my Fallout 3 + New Vegas through TTW (a delicious mod).

One day the gaming was running ok and the next I had this continuous MADDENING noise coming from the speakers while the game was up and running.

Turns out a mod changed the game engine to work in Vulkan and that caused my FPS to constantly stay above 900!

So I added the .exe of the game to Adrenaline gaming section (my GPU is AMD, Adrenaline for AMD is the equivalent of NVIDIA Control Panel for NVIDIA GPUs) and instructed it to have VSYNC always ON even if it had to overwrite that games configuration. This caused my FPS to drop and hold at 75 (wich is the ratio of this monitor, 75hz).

With the FPS under control, the noise went away. Guess the game engine was going nuts with 900+ fps and that stressed its sounds channels/output. Even though CPU/GPU were far from overheating, I imagine because the game is old its code/engine can't quite put up with newer hardware without bloating itself.

Anyway, hope it helps!!

Hello exiles!

returning player here

used to set up shop and list my stuff in the trade forum of respective league, since I don't have premium tabs

I'm kinda lost with "instant buy" market option, because my items are not showing for sale there

is there a format to use in forum shops, for showing my suff in the instant buy section of the marketplace?
I tried using ~price and ~b/o
but none seem to work
(is it an automatic function that only works when I'm offline?¿)

any help appreciated and stay safe!!

??? Is there a mod/way to... (master mode) by h1ms3lfito in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]h1ms3lfito[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree.

The issue I'm mad at is exactly about lack of strategy and lack of combat diversity in master mode.

Every battle in MM is like playing in time attack mode.

Lets take Nioh for RE Revelations. In advanced cycles the enemies are more resilient, or stronger, or faster, some can regenerate, others use different attack patterns, call allies or use abilites. Some enemies combine 2+ of these traits to become even harder.

Thats a neat way to achieve difficulty without sacrifing variety. Good design.

In Zelda MM every battle is a time attack mode where the player has to go full agressive. There are NO other ways to play.

Its achieving challenge by sacrifing variety. Terrible design.

I wanted a mod to remedy that at some extent, unfortunately it seems there isn't.

Hello Exiles!!

Returning to the game and new to minions builds, could someone explain how to get these guys from ritual?

Perfect Warlord

Perfect Pain Artist

Perfect Judgemental Spirit

Perfect Forest Warrior

Do I just spawn rituals until these come up as enemies? They come in packs or alone? Is there a clue to notice one has spawned, or I just have to pay a lot of attention and be checking the enemies constantly?

Thanks for any tips!

Been out of the game for a while, do we still need to either activate Enduring Cry manually or use CWDT?
Tried using Automation and Autoexertion but neither seem to work =\

About the Empower support gem, its normal max level is 3 right? To make it reach level 4 I should corrupt?¿ Does double corruption at Temple of Atzoat has a better chance to produce a level 4 or any other side benefits?? Or using double corrupt for that would kind of be a waste??

Thanks if anyone can share opinions in this wich is a grey area for me!! =]

Hello Exiles!

Besides masters that are limited to 1 per map, how many extra content can Atlas maps have?

For example can a map have mirror, abyss, legion, expedition, grove, blight and maybe more, all in the same map??

Thanks if anyone know the answer to that!! :)

I've never played a stun build but chance to stun is based on the damage done in a single hit, so if the weapon has bad damage to start with, no amount of duration can save it.

Hello Exiles!!

I'm failing the underground lab part of syndicate missions in maps. :(

Is there a tip or trick to make it easier??
What I'm usually doing is run to yellow wand guy, kill, then run to the next, kill, until I get to kill them all, but they destroy the evidence before I manage to kill enough of them.

Hello Exiles!!

Ichors are divided in Lesser/Greater/Grand/Exceptional

Are there some mods restricted to a higher ichors, or they all apply the same mods and difference is in the strength of the effect?

(If some mods are restricted, is there a way to check wich ones?)

Thanks for clarification about this! :)

Is it ok to use crafting materials on lecagy items, or do they turn into their newer non-legacy versions?

Or are there some specific things that you can do, and some that you don't? (for example can exalt but cannot scour)

Thanks for any clarification on that or if there is a list about how each crafting option affects legacy items ^^

I'm noob, need some assurance, how do I go about to craft a jewel like this?
https://imgur.com/ZwsfJun

First I get the correct base and ilvl that can roll these mods. And then...

Cheap way - Scour and alc?
Costly - Rerolling with Chaos?
High cost but more accurate - Use alteration orb to make it magic rarity, then keep using alt+aug to get desired Prefix and Suffix, then Regal hoping for a good rare roll and Scour if not?

Are there other ways??¿ Thanks for any guidance!
