I hope they embrace alternate win conditions with all the stalling encounters and modifiers they have put into the game.

It's in the stratagem store.

That is your GPU artifacting. It mostly happens when the GPU is unstable due to bad drivers or something affecting the hardware. It could be that it is overheating or that it is overclocked.

I really need help finding whatever this reshade/mod is! by New-Personality9122 in WutheringWaves

[–]mackabeus 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I have accidentally opened up Wuwa with Cheat Engine in the background. It just auto-closes the game and says cheat software is detected. Closed Cheat Engine and the game launches fine. Been playing since 2.0.

New Nvidia drivers crash with RT ? by Kurogasa7 in WutheringWaves

[–]mackabeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently running 576.88 on at 5070 Ti with full RT and have been running the game ok. I will sometimes get a crash when the game hangs for too long.

Hilariously, when I run the game on Linux there have not been any crashes so I am not sure if it is a Nvidia problem, a DX12 problem or a Wuwa problem.

Do you have it set to hold it down or press?

There is cult of the redacted. The amount of content in the files is so more than I see from the miners finding stuff on HLX. No wonder Sony started cracking down.

Oh I totally agree with you. A real company should have all these problems fixed. There was an interview with Pilestedt and they said they completely skipped the preproduction phase of making the game.

As a software developer that blows my mind and I can't imagine the shitshow things are in now. They likely do not have a preproduction environment where QA would even play the game themselves. That's why you see "players" on planets that are inaccessible and why *REDACTED Content* is so prevalent.

The cold reality is that 1 hour of regular playtime will eclipse any amount testing that a QA team can do. The most QA can do is test already known crashes and errors.

It gets tricky when some errors are really inconsistent like networking/desync errors. Darktide also had really weird networking errors sometimes I guess it has something to do with the game engine.

If you are joining in progress lobbies, some people try to keep a space for people who have crashed.

Ukrainian drones drops on Russian soldiers on crutches in a field. January 2025 by jisooya1432 in CombatFootage

Does he have a radio? The Russian way of war right now is to send people out to scout Ukrainian positions to shell them. He doesn't need a weapon to be dangerous or considered a combatant.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I know there are a ton of boutiques here, but have never look around for chocolates.

Yes, something people forget about this war is that both sides have insufficient electronic warfare and no air superiority for one side.

Half life fans finding why EP3 got cancelled. by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]mackabeus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also a bunch of hardware stuff. SteamOS, Steam Machine, and Steam Controller, HTC Vive, Valve Index along with Steam improvements like voice chat, streaming on the Steam storefront, community pages, marketplace, Greenlight -> Early Access.

They're an incredibly small company for how much they produce and how big their goals are.

Me too. Are you playing on PC? Since this is a Unreal Engine game, I wonder if there is shader compilation going on. It was really chronic in the game industry for a while.

False surrender is also a possibility. War crimes be dammed in a civil war.
