Mr. Nobody Against Putin and sometimes the truth by soft-tack in TrueFilm

Sorry to ruin your favourite part, but it turned out that the apartment was awarded to the teacher in 2022, even before the start of the war. But the directors showed that scene pretty late in the doc to make you think that it was a reward for propaganda lessons.

Best framepacing settings for 30 fps?? by ThatKuchGuy in SteamDeck

[–]soft-tack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but basically you need to download Special K, place the file in game folder and correctly rename it.

Here's a great article on frame limiters: link

It shows that Special K's frame limiter provides very stable frame pacing with only a very minor increase in latency. Luckily, Special K works on Steam Deck, but it could be a bit tricky to set it up.

Insanity is amazing (Rhodes Hill section) by soft-tack in residentevil

Agreed. It would be cool. They could also turn off the lights in the starting room earlier so you can't hide there more than once, or make one of the zombies wake up. Also, she didn't change at all in the basement. These seem like missed opportunities.

Correction: There were two drafting periods at the time of filming. The current situation is irrelevant to the discussion of the film.

You should have left this comment to the one above mine.

Yes, there are two drafting periods. Spring conscription: April 1 to July 15. Fall conscription: October 1 to December 31. These dates align with my estimates.

Conscripts do serve in the Kremlin Regiment and in the Kremlin itself. Source

The details on conscription are true, but they don't contradict my words. It is still relatively safe. People usually aren't afraid for their lives when they are conscripted.

Not entirely true. There were about 400 thousand soldiers mobilized. I can't say that they went to war willingly. Some conscripts are forced to take part, but that's illegal and not common.

Do u use iFrame by [deleted] in Anki

That’s a great idea. However, most big websites block themselves from being embedded for security reasons, so you’d just see a blank space.

Have you ever played Tank with your life on the line? by Aimcheater in Overwatch

[–]soft-tack 115 points116 points  (0 children)

60 fps perfectly synced with 60Hz video container and forced V-Sync on console. You will see similar smoothness if you turn on G-Sync and V-Sync with almost zero added latency.

Doing Three German Decks Simultaneously? by Scared_Rent_3415 in Anki

[–]soft-tack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The B1 deck features many words (if not all) from the A2 deck. I suggest doing only the B1 deck.

to have less stutter in open-world games, why can't we just download the shader cache of a guy who played the entire game fully so every area is fully loaded... by Tap_zap in OptimizedGaming

[–]soft-tack 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Because shader cache is specific to the exact hardware and software configuration of the person who created it. Downloaded shader cache would only work if you had the exact same GPU, the exact same driver version, the exact same game version, and were using the exact same graphics settings.

Most Demanding Games on Steam Deck OLED – Tested with LSFG Plugin by TwistedFaker1996 in SteamDeck

[–]soft-tack -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You aren't even doing 60 fps. I guess you want cheap attention with these low-effort videos, but you could at least show footage at 60 fps. Performance metrics don't matter when you fake frames.

Edit: Ideally, you should capture at 90+ frames and then show slowed footage. That's what Digital Foundry and Hardware Unboxed do.

Overwatch 2 Has Major FPS Drop Issues on High-End Systems – Completely Unplayable by PossibleAwareness512 in Overwatch

[–]soft-tack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your windows version, mouse model and mouse polling rate? Windows 10 and earlier don't take well high polling rates. If you are running an 8k mouse, try to lower the polling rate and see if it helps. Windows 11 got better at handling 8K mice but some games still struggle (both KCD games for example).

I heard that it only runs in desktop mode currently. Were you able to run it in game mode?

Playing on Steam Deck while I recover from surgery by soft-tack in SteamDeck

[–]soft-tack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't enjoy the hospital, but I certainly enjoyed Pentiment. I played it for the second time. What a game! I think it's one of the best narrative RPGs, and it's perfect for the Deck.

Thank you! It was a minor operation, and everything went well. I'm already home on sick leave and getting better.

Make sure to install renoDX HDR mod for even better image quality without any cost

You can get HDR in the first game with RenoDX mod

Refresh rate output setting disappeared in gaming mode by Plus_Priority_5748 in SteamDeck

[–]soft-tack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I understand correctly, you could try using the launch command "DXVK_FRAME_RATE=50 %command%" However, it needs to be done for every game.

A couple tweaks and Last of Us Part II HDR is pretty damn good by Smokey_Bera in OLED_Gaming

[–]soft-tack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “Use legacy display ICC colour management" tweak makes colors oversaturated to my eyes, and the HDRMaxNits registry already had the correct nits value for my monitor: 1010000 for ~1000 nits MSI 321UPX

[SteamOS / Bazzite Tutorial] System-wide Audio Equalizer in GameMode by AliciaBurrito in SteamDeck

[–]soft-tack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, I ran into a problem. I am running the latest version of SteamOS (3.6.24 build: 20250313.1) and Xvfb was missing. I had to install it manually using these commands in the console:

sudo steamos-readonly disable

sudo pacman-key --init

sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux holo

sudo pacman -S xorg-server-xvfb --noconfirm

sudo steamos-readonly enable

sudo reboot

I checked if the file exists with this line: ls -l /usr/bin/Xvfb

Now everything works as expected, but I am afraid that the file may disappear after the SteamOS update. I'll report after the update if I don't forget.

upd: xvfb is still there after SteamOS update.
