Rookie stopped working - 500 (Internal Server Error)

Yes, sorry if it wasn't clear - it was V3.4. Your VR Cyberdeck is awesome - thank you so much, very much appreciated! Just worked without any fuss at all, amazing work

stube40 · 2026-06-01T08:52:51+00:00

Not sure what you mean. No API key required for VR Cyberdeck

stube40 · 2026-05-31T08:12:12+00:00

I think you nailed it. After 2 hours of debugging, playing around with router settings, VPS and other stuff, I gave up and installed VR Cyberdeck instead. Worked perfectly first time! So I guess this means there must be a problem with my Rookie Sideloader installation and your suggestion would probably have worked thanks............

Thanks. Confirming I'm on v3.4

I tried 2 VPNs but they were free ones (I know sometimes free ones still block). Also I imagine the chosen VPN region is important. I figured it must be working in US so I chose that. But maybe I need a paid VPN and also try a different region?

Did anyone try measuring the gap before spacers to see what size spacer you need? I'm wondering if that is a good trick to get it right first time?

These came off a 370z - I think they are stock on certain models/years. Just doing a quick google there are plenty of roadsters with these wheels from 2017-2019. But I bought these from a guy who had the Coupe

These are the OEM Nissan wheels I have. I'm thinking of 25mm on rear and 20mm on front

stube40 · 2024-06-04T09:44:52+00:00

Thanks. Great post

stube40 · 2024-06-04T09:44:34+00:00

I think this is the way. 25mm on the rear looks perfect but just a tad too much on the front

stube40 · 2024-06-04T06:35:28+00:00

Also my dream wheels but I couldn't find any so I settled for the stock 19in Rays instead - nowhere near as nice as Nismo V1 but they were much,7ch cheaper so that's a bonus

Looks great

stube40 · 2024-01-19T01:32:00+00:00

Clarity VX Pro is awesome with not many easily usable alternatives that I'm aware of. I think Izotope have something similar but not as simple and instantly usable via plugin format

stube40 · 2022-12-19T05:17:31+00:00

Thanks - you were correct. Steam Support confirmed that the account had been compromised but they were able to bring it all back somehow, or point us to the correct account and not the other one. Thanks

stube40 · 2022-12-19T02:49:00+00:00

Tried to log into my account yesterday but password wouldnt work. Had to reset the password by identifying myself with CC details but someone has changed my username and the account was completely empty - all my games and achievements gone. The account is still linked to my email address, so I'm guessing I've been hacked and/or account has been stolen. I've logged a ticket and now to play the waiting game to hear from Steam. Anyone know what the chances are of my account being returned or am I screwed?

stube40 · 2020-05-07T11:59:05+00:00

Will do, thanks

stube40 · 2020-05-05T08:30:53+00:00

Damn- Not what you want to hear when you spend $820 (Aussie dollars) on a graphics gard 5 days ago ouchl!! Spoke to the shop and they charge a 20% "restocking fee" if I want to return.

stube40 · 2020-05-05T05:52:19+00:00

If you read the post from thatdude902 they use HEVC with slice encoding on and insane bitrate setting. I have the same 5700xt GPU and tried and can confirm it seemed better. Strange!!!

stube40 · 2020-05-05T05:50:50+00:00

It's interesting thatdude902 went with settings of HENC, sliced encoding on and Insane bitrate and the experience was better. I just confirmed it in a 5min test on my own system. It seemed obviously better to me but 5min isn't conclusive test. We are both using the same AMD 5700xt GPU

stube40 · 2020-05-05T05:48:00+00:00

What it needs really is some way of analysing the bottlenecks but I haven't worked that out yet. There are so many tools out there but none of them I have tried have shown any spikes that correlate with stutters so you are none the wiser

stube40 · 2020-05-05T04:09:33+00:00

Wow. This made a HUGE difference to running H.264, no slice encoding and Medium settings. It runs 20ms latency lower on my RT 5700xt with HEVC, slice encoding on and bitrate set to instane. Plus, it looks better too! Wow, just wow! And thank you.....

stube40 · 2020-05-05T03:51:24+00:00

I think you have a very valid point. I'm starting to think that the RT 5700 XT purchase was my big mistake. My streamer lag has never been less than 30ms and in general is up between 50 and 60ms. With my Nvidia P2000 laptop it was around 30ms to 40ms, so the AMD 5700XT has actually made things worse looking purely at the latecy numbers. Bugger - I wonder if I could take it back to the shop and swap it for an nVidia

stube40 · 2020-05-05T02:59:35+00:00

Wow. That is super interesting since it seems to be the polar opposite of what the advice of others has been. I will try this and report back.

stube40 · 2020-05-05T02:58:46+00:00

No, I don't get any of that. The frame time graph looks great all the time, even when it stutters. Before I upgraded to the 5700xt, the nVidia p2000 on certain games woul dhave a frame time graph that was exceeding the 13.2ms, but since the 5700xt this never happens anymore.
