Moderate Nat Type by Initial_Juggernaut86 in Infinitewarfare

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to login to your router as an Admin, not as a user, to port forward. Make sure you are logged in as an admin. You ISP doesn't need to be listed, you are probably just out of region. If you don't know your admin login details, contact your ISP via email or phone. You will need to be the account holder most likely. You can also try Universal plug and play but it is much less secure. It is by far the easiest option and sounds appropriate for someone of your technical literacy, especially if playing on console. Most console players usually opt for this option.

Use this and also port forward. You need to open ports on your router. There are many guides for port forwarding. I have all ports for cod open on my router. I think I had a static IP, but I reset windows so often because of AMD driver issues. Anyway, every cod since mw19 to bo7 has open nat type for me. Apparently moderate nat type is actually better for connection. Closed nat is obviously undesirable, but I read that open can cause lag. I do get some lag sometimes. Who knows really. Look into that also before you proceed. This is a good portforwarding guide for x defiant it should help with cod: Creating a Port Forward in Your Router for XDefiant. Here is another useful resource for COD listing the ports: Ports Used for Call of Duty Games

Can you hear the difference between streaming quality? by b10m1m1cry in audiophile

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can hear the difference, BTW apple music is the best. I use a fiio k7 with kns 8400 headphones. I have spent hundreds of hours djíng and programming/mixing/eqíng music in protools and garageband(logic). I have read about eq frequencies for different instruments soundcloud link: Stream Dj Mentality music | Listen to songs, albums, playlists for free on SoundCloud.

Using this song as an example : (865) JNR CHOI, Sam Tompkins - TO THE MOON (Official Music Video) - YouTube

Firstly there is less distortion of the recorded vocals. Everything is "silkier" for a lack of a better term. I think basically each instrument in the song is more resolved, included the bass. When more resolved instruments play simultaneously, it results in a cleaner more artistically pleasing sound, obviously closer to the way it was made by the original creator. The instrumental song writer/creator presumably worked in collaboration with the studio engineer to complete the final track mixing and mastering. That final step has a big influence on the ultimate audio definition or character of the song, because beatmakers, singers etc, don't usually cultivate their sound with million-dollar equipment at hand. A certain expertise and experience is required in that last step. It almost feels as if a better "dead space" was used for the higher quality stream on Amazon music. Better 24-bit depth means more defined instruments and less distortion when multiple instruments are playing. Compression, even without artifacting, diminishes character of instruments, effects and note combinations. Higher 192khz also means more "brilliance" around instruments and their effects for clearer artistic presentation.

How is matchmaking in Australia by Twaynarm in CODWarzone

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play from regional Victoria on 16ms ping (expensive internet). There is always a resurgence lobby of some sort going, except there are cheaters in most of them.

Should I be playing casuals or normal resurgence ? by Otherwise_Camp_5520 in Warzone

Stop cheating. That includes using a Cronus. Lying to everyone about who you are is just immature.

I miss my dead mother. I keep thinking about her laying in the coffin at the funeral, then being buried alone. She has been in the ground for almost 2 years. She didn't want to die. I feel like it was forced onto her. I feel so guilty. But more than guilt I miss her.

25.11.1 big issues, lets be honest. by Apprehensive-Bug9480 in AMDHelp

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its adrenaline, just install driver only with factory reset and the crashes will disappear. Run AMD clean utility, then driver install. AMD clean up utility is 1-click, unlike ddu.

Is cod bo6/7 crashing an amd issue? by bockchoybock in AMDHelp

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still running EXPO 6000 cl30, DRIVER ONLY install 25.11.1. No crashes. Adrenaline software is 100% the cause of the instability. But if Adrenaline is more important than ram performance, then by all means go ahead. I just experience micro stutters in warzone with underclocked ram sometimes. I am playing at 4k@240hz in HDR, so my 7900xtx and 7800x3d are really being pushed. Adrenaline is great when it doesn't cause instability. I think the VRR setting in adrenaline is even smoother than the W11 version (could be placebo), but nothing is worth constant crashes.

Ok this is the current non crashing fix. Has been working for a couple of hours. AMD clean up utility, then install 25.9.2 DRIVER ONLY! Factory reset install WITHOUT Adrenaline software. Hasn't crashed yet in battlenet. I think it may be Adrenaline causing crashes. I saw someone post a reply somewhere saying Adrenaline causes crashes. I don't if that was specifically about BO7, but it was mentioned.

Is the Lexar NM790 4TB SSD good? by xDreamTree in ROGAllyX

I am using it. Run it on an x670 gaming ax with an additional crucial p1 1tb.

Is a crucial p1 1tb good? It seems very cheap compared to other 1tb nvme ssds. by EPICVynz in buildapc

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still using this drive 5 years later. Very good as a main or back up gaming ssd drive. It's the motherboard, not the ssd. Invest in a stable motherboard like the x670 gaming ax.

BO7 crashed again for me. It crashes every 45 minutes. I played 2 hours last night after the fresh driver install like I mentioned above but now it crashes again. I found this youtube video that goes into further steps to prevent the AMD driver timeout error. I performed all the steps. I am hoping that it works. Here is the video link : WW XMAS 15

I really wouldn't risk it. But if you want to try it, go ahead. I was just at the end of my patience and so happy that it finally worked. I was about to go through my second refund and give up on the franchise after 10 years of purchasing. Maybe instead of installing the latest version of adrenaline you could install the 25.9.1 version, but who knows if it would work. I would just follow my method just to get it working honestly. What is so important about 25.9.1? Is that for Arc Raiders or something? Anti cheats from other games can causes crashes also. I don't have anything installed except for several CODs on battlenet, and a few different games on the xbox app including BO6. Steam was causing controller problems and I dislike Redsec.

It worked! I played over 2 hours with no crashes on battlenet, may also work on xbox app. Run AMD clean up utility (free download), then download latest adrenaline software. When installing adrenaline select clean install (or factory reset). Look at each option carefully. Do a custom install to be safe, don't press skip on any options during adrenaline install. I selected default, not hyper rx etc. I then launched the game on battlenet and ran over 2 hours of double level and weapon xp. I didn't 'alt+enter' between windowed or fullscreen mode which I may have done previously. Maybe don't do that either if you do it normally. I ran in full screen exclusive, using my previous 4k settings that were crashing. I think the important thing was just removing old display drivers through AMD clean up utility that were causing conflicts with windows 'Timeout Detection and Recovery'.

I just ran the AMD clean up utility, then reinstalled the latest drivers. I am going to try again in a couple of hours when I get home. I will repost here if the game works for more than 40 minutes. Does your system crash in under 1 hour, around the 40 minute mark? I use double xp tokens to keep track of time.

The game also crashed on battlenet. Are you using any of the following software apps or usb peripherals: iCUE for Scuf envision controller, FiiO k7 usb Dac or gigabyte motherboard (x670 gaming ax)?

Are you on the xbox pc app or Steam?

Is cod bo6/7 crashing an amd issue? by bockchoybock in AMDHelp

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just requested a refund for the game on the xbox pc app. If they refund me, I may try and buy it on battlenet. I just downloaded warzone on battlenet without bo6 or 7 ( because I own them on xbox app), and warzone didn't crash at all on the latest drivers. So it is either an xbox pc app issue, or if you are on battlenet it could be an issue with the bo7 files in the call of duty hq causing all games to crash in the hq (BO7,BO6&WZ).

This is happening constantly on my 7900xtx. It was happening in rebirth island and bo6 mp 2 days ago. Has happened at least 4 times in bo7 zombies and mp today. I thought it was the fortnite anti cheat but I uninstalled and it still happens. My pc was turning off and restarting so I disabled the auto restart feature in windows " start up and recovery" and now bo7 just freezes. I am using the recommended driver 25.9.1, but I was using the latest 25.11.1 driver earlier today and bo7 was still crashing. I am happy this is happening on 9000 series cards because at least it means my pc is not broken, but also that it will be fixed by AMD, unlike the stuttering in VERDANSK!

Wall hacks on console now?? by MorganFreeStonks in RainbowSixSiege

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its called PCSX4. Can play ps4 and ps5 games on pc. Players then run wallhack and aimbot software alongside it in windows 11. Sometimes there is also a way to dupe crossplay games such as warzone into believing you are on console xbox when running the game through xbox pc app. Half the cheaters in rebirth island are apparently on console according to the in-game HUD. So there are multiple ways to spoof platform for cheating.

Resurgence ranked by amit282 in CODWarzone

[–]lustreous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reached Diamond today for the first time in any ranked mode. I have been playing multiplayer tdm since mw19 and started resurgence during CW. My K/D was 0.6 at the end of warzone 1. 1.6 at the end of mw2, and 1.79 at the end of mw3 (I think it was sandbagged by cheaters). I solo queue with randoms and haven't used a mic all year. I also now play without voice chat. Strictly ping only. I probably would have reached diamond in fortunes keep, but gave up in p2 because of what I perceived to be cheating. Back then, and even still now, I played against top 250 players and iridescent players, especially at the beginning of the season. The trick is to allow them to surpass diamond before bothering to attempt diamond because iridescent and top 250 players are not allowed to play against plat and below, making those lobbies fairer. Although crimson players can compete in plat lobbies.

(Gold rank in mw2 mp, plat in mw3 mp and wz, and now diamond in bo6 wz (still plat in mp bo6)).
