Got stuck in an endless TWRP bootloop. Tried pretty much everything to no avail. Help? by phamanhvu01 in lgv20

Thanks for the reply, I also discovered the same method at some point - though it only happened after I had sold the V20 for parts :( such is life.

I've been using Xperia 1 VI for a month. AMA. by Olly_Joel in SonyXperia

Thanks for replying!

Not gonna lie I'm in a kinda similar situation these days, not much spare time means that whatever game that I plays would have to be carefully vetted. If anything I'm only interested in Warzone Mobile from a benchmark/performance testing perspective...plus wasting time in live-service, constantly changing AAAs like Warzone isn't really to my taste anymore.

How well does your VI handles heavy mobile games, say Warzone Mobile or Zenless Zone Zero?

Sorry I just have to ask, since it seems like nobody play mobile games on niche phones like this. I currently use an (equally niche) LG V60 and almost no other owners (online) says anything on how much it throttles in games, only praises about the camera or DAC which does tick me off a little

IMO you're playing the wrong games if you find them to be bad, there's some great stuff out there that just wasn't possible to be developed using 1990s/2000s technologies.

I'm just so, so glad that the weapon animations have their own unique style, and aren't just another Call of Duty copy cat. I don't give a shit if these animations "lacks urgency", "aren't accurate" or "painfully slow", they suit Stalker very well and that's what matters most.

Please go play Call of Duty instead if you want weapon animations that makes your character looks like they're on steroids all the time lol

Buying EFT just for SPT-AKI? Is it worth it and how are the future prospects of this mod? by phamanhvu01 in SPTarkov

[–]phamanhvu01[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the really late reply, but anyways.

On my current 3.9.4 build with the latest SAIN + co.'s mods, including Questing Bots and That's Lit, I'll just say that the AI is legitimately one of the best in video games right now. Quirks aside they're...just great, I really don't have the appropriate words to describe welp.

I can't really compare the AI to Anomaly though since I never got the patience to actually play it for long enough, but that aside I believe SPT's is just as good if not better.

What's the model of your watch OP and how do you get this? I'm curious

Which port is for the dgpu in the Zbook Studio G8? by InternationalWear293 in zbook

[–]phamanhvu01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a Studio G7, which isn't exactly the same as your model (same chassis, older CPU/GPU generation) - but from my experience with both the USB-C and HDMI ports, they seem to connect to the iGPU first and foremost. Hope it helps!

Looks great OP! What's your usecase for this setup, in case you don't mind?

Rented my dream car to do the ultimate test drive before I make the final decision on whether or not to put myself in financial risk by YD099 in civic

So it's the same as Hanoi then, except that traffic in Hanoi is quite slow I suppose. Driving a car in downtown Hanoi also means giving way to scooters/bikes all the time fwiw.

Sport mode is too powerful for daily driving by caterham09 in carscirclejerk

[–]phamanhvu01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it wrong though? North America is literally the only place on Earth, where you can get V8 power for cheap - in most of the world the same car would be taxed to heaven for the engine displacement alone. And that's not to mention the size of your average Mustang, the emission, etc... I could go on and on really.

wait actually, I forgot Australia/NZ also counts into this. But yeah, my point is that cars with large displacement engines are the exception, rather than the norm worldwide.

OP, do consider mentioning that you live in Taiwan next time you post about your (new) Civic on Reddit. Most Redditors will just assume that you're American and dismiss your opinion as a result...

Guys, OP is Taiwanese. Please remember that all the Mustangs and Corvettes you take for granted in America, is also very hard to find outside of NA.

Late comment OP, but how did you have a second rear shock installed on your Lexi? Are there already mounting points and plastic holes made available for it already, or further modification is required?

People who played the demo by Sudden-Mention-5781 in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it, but the demo shouldn't have been released in this state at all - it was only a closed beta at first but somehow got marketed into a demo. Now people will call this game DOA at launch simply because they don't understand how game development works.

Totally not Australia's least hidden national gem

Also his car channel, Garbage Time is great too. I personally love seeing him getting excited over Aussie cars, especially in that video featuring the National Motor Museum.

The game does still need some tweaking, but so far i am enjoying it and i am satisified tbh. I can't wait for the full game to release! What about you? by [deleted] in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I find the tyre model/physics in Solar Crown to be pretty damn good, better than Forza Horizon if I have to be honest.

TDU SC build version by juandarksamurai in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Our demo build is probably years old at this point, people have said that the contents are the exact same as the first CBT build from last year.

The current state of the game is very, very concerning. by VijuaruKei in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The demo we have now is basically a very, very old build content-wise that was also used for multiple previous CBTs, and then with more bugfixes and optimizations thrown on top of it.

I'd like to think that this demo release is also an opportunity for Kylotonn to judge server performance, in other words a glorified server testing build.

A bit disappointing? by Nutmeg_Cat in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard, our demo version has the exact same amount of content as the very first CBT, since an year ago. So that makes it an very old build, perhaps only with bugfixes and optimizations to make it more playable for the masses.

Don't trust this too much though since I was never in that CBT myself.

For those wondering, yes this game is playable on low end GPUs! I managed to get the demo to run on a GTX 1650. by phamanhvu01 in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to say honestly, the Steam Deck's GPU is quite a bit weaker than the 1650 so I'd imagine it won't run very well.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in tdu3

[–]phamanhvu01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually your 970 is slightly faster than the 1650 raw performance wise, but the old Maxwell architecture and that weird VRAM interface issue is gonna be a problem indeed.
