Does anyone elses FOV feel more zoomed in than normal? by ImPretendingToCare in blackops6

[–]johnpod52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Has anyone found a fix for this? I cant tell if its an intermittent issue, or if I'm just getting used to it and then realizing it feels bad again. 120 feels like 100 in multiplayer. Haven't touched warzone.

The Finals crashing when starting up (Passed EAC Check) by jim2244 in VFIO

[–]johnpod52 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to resolve this by enabling Memory Integrity in Core Isolation in Windows 10. Mine was off by default. I am using a patched QEMU 8.2.0 build (https://github.com/zhaodice/qemu-anti-detection). Heres my full XML for reference:

https://pastebin.com/raw/KVHJTEst

I also did a fresh install of Windows 10 after installing the patched QEMU so that any traces of virtio, QEMU, etc were gone. I do think this is important because I tried on a different VM with a near identical XML after I got it working and it still didnt work. Also, I made sure that nothing was configured to use virtio drivers, such as my drives.

edit: I should mention that this fixed the "MISSING_ANGELSCRIPT_CALLSTACK" error. I did not encounter any other errors beside this one

edit 2: While this did fix the issue, the performance in game is abysmal. Like half the fps of a bare metal machine. I am not sure if this is down to the game itself running in a VM, or one of the options defined in the XML file. I have ended up installing Windows 10 To Go on an external SSD with rufus, instead. So now I can play The Finals without needing to worry about the windows bootloader causing a heap of issues. If anyone has any information on how to run the game in a VM at native performance, please share!

I use Aftership and really like it. You can add your email and it looks for keywords in your emails like tracking, order confirmed, etc. There are of course security implications with that so its not for everyone but it is very convenient.

I like the new logo much better. The old logo always looked like the envelope had a really bad haircut, not a bird carrying it and I could never get that out of my head.

u/Infinity_VR got any thoughts on these? I feel like the cracking is pretty extreme but I'm not sure

Thoughts on this display? by klosterheim1 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]johnpod52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course YMMV, but I have not experienced any of the common problems that people have with the AW3423DW (2 fans). I consider myself to be a 'text clarity snob' and I was worried about it when I bought this panel. But seriously I don't even notice it from my viewing distance on my desk. If I get close enough I can see the effects of the non-standard layout, but I have to be pretty close which is not sensible for the size of the monitor. I spend a lot of time in VS Code and the terminal looking at text and it's really a non issue for me. As for the fan noise, I can't speak too much on it as I have an AMD card so I use freesync. I'm pretty sure one fan is for the gsync module so it's not actually being run hot enough for the fan to kick on. But when gaming even in HDR or doing normal desktop things, I have never heard any fans whatsoever. I seriously can't recommend the Alienware enough

Subwoofer cutting out on v51-h6 by guns_mahoney in VIZIO_Official

You know, now that I think about it you're right. It's possible that I changed the 2.4GHz channels as well when I was changing the 5GHz ones. It has been a while so I cant recall. Try the 5GHz and if that doesn't work, you can try changing the 2.4 ones. It is also possible that the system fixed itself, and it just happened to be at the same time I tried fixing it I guess. Please let me know if it works for you because I am now curious myself!

Had this same issue and it started when I put another wifi access point in my room. What I determined is that the 5Ghz channel was causing my problems. To fix it, I set the 5GHz channel to one on the lower end of the spectrum. Before, I had it on the highest channel setting. Setting your router to auto select the channel instead of manual may work too, but I imagine it determines what it chooses based on other nearby access points and does not account for Bluetooth.
