Eeeeyyyyyyy, the wow64 option was the ticket. I was bypassing the redlauncher, but entirely possible either redext or cybertweak’s is 32bit dll and broke without the flag. Though performance of the game not really affected, probably entirely because I run it with RT enabled.

Yet again bitten in the ass by skipping a paragraph x)

Thanks!

hmhm, seems like some games don’t even start with NTSYNC on. I had heard that Cyberpunk specifically gets pretty nice performance boost, but I can’t even get it to start. Oh well.

ooh, nice. finally some ntsync support starts showing up. I’m not expecting miracles, but in general it still should (?) be better than existing e/f-sync thingies in general?

edit: probably depending on the application/game, but still. Nice to see things moving forwards.

It’s great in VR, i just have an ancient oculus devkit 2 or so, its horrid mess of cables I don’t want to deal with

Too early adopter issues. :P

well, they probably didn’t back when 510 drivers were a thing (as the link you provided links to 510.xx driver documentation), but later on they were enabled.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA/Troubleshooting#GSP_firmware

The use of the GSP firmware, enabled by default since version 555 of the NVIDIA driver released in June 2024, is known to cause a range of issues including Vulkan failures and system crashes.

and https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/575.64/README/gsp.html

The GSP firmware will be used by default for all Turing and later GPUs

Which nvidia driver you’re using? If you’re using the regular old nvidia blob, you might want to try disabling the gsp firmware. But note that this can’t be done with nvidia-open, only on nvidia.

Previously the gsp firmware was a bit problematic on some systems and wayland, disabling it solved some issues. But it has been fine since the 575 drivers, at least for me (rtx3090)

I’m going to go with Euro truck simulator 2.

The experience of chill driving across europe and listening to podcasts is nice. The game isn’t complicated enough to affect listening experience, but also engaging enough on it’s own right that it stays interesting.

I have probably seen 80% or so of the roads and cities, bit they still feel fresh… Could be that I’m forgetting places faster than I’m getting familiar with them as well.

I do have a steering wheel and pedals, but they’re just too cumbersome to get out and my wheel stand is made for someone at least 20 shorter than I am, so the experience is hampered a bit anyway. Because I’m lazy I’ve just resulted to driving witn mouse and keyboard combo.

Edit: typos. Typing on phone is butts

While I do agree, I dunno how meaningful or realistic data it would offer when some users switch between platforms.

I could see a single short mini-episode where Duke shoots shit up and saves the day, and that’s the depth it goes. A whole series? Kinda seems a bit too thin for that.

Besides, considering the character: if they keep him as is - some people are gonna raise hell. If they don’t - other people gonna raise hell. I don’t see there being a winning move here.

But, eh, whatever. If someone really wants to spend money on making it happen, sure, go ahead.

edit:

“It’s a middle finger to everybody,” Shankar said when describing his vision for Duke Nukem. “When Duke Nukem blew up, a bunch of people sat around trying to turn it into a brand, when it’s just a middle finger. Duke Nukem can’t be made by a corporation, because the moment a corporation makes Duke Nukem, it’s no longer Duke Nukem. I don’t intend on having anyone tell me what to do on this one.”

as the article says. I guess they have a vision, but at the end of the day, a “middle finger to everybody” doesn’t seem like a commercial success. Oh well, remains to be seen what comes out of this.

winevdm as in this https://github.com/otya128/winevdm ? I have used that on Windows before, and if I’m not entirely mistaken, isn’t it a part of wine anyway? At least winevdm.exe exists in my wineprefix.

IIRC I have tried the game with proton(and/or -ge), it never worked on those.

I’m probably just going to accept dosbox for the game (it also fixes some minor graphics issues with it). I’m mostly concerned about old game installers - but then again, gog/steam don’t have those installers anyway, so it’s only an issue if the user is adamant on using original install media or so.

This update broke a game for me, namely “Castle of the Winds”, it’s a 16-bit windows 3.1 game. Not really a huge loss as I can just run it in win3.1 I have in dosbox - but it was pretty nice to have in modern resolution :D

Haven’t done much searching for remedies, but kinda looks like 16-bit support is gone https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=306297

Gotta wonder what’s the workaround, as many older games have 16-bit installers, even if the game was for eg. winxp or so.

I guess I could always just have an older wine on the side, but… I dunno. I’d like to keep it simple. :/

I did like Control, and I do like coop-shooters… but I would prefer some story campaign instead of few repeatable/grindable mission-types with minor run-to-run variance.

Overall, I’m definitely wanting to play through this to completion.

So, this game does have some story arc? Genuinely do want to know.

Stiff linear ones are my thing, currently using Durock L7 78g ones. Haven’t really felt the need to seek alternatives as they’re nice, smooth and my sausage fingers don’t cause accidental keypresses when just resting them on keys :D

With random flailing, most likely

Just to add: possible need to tap esc first, as your random flailing probably put you in insert mode, or something more exotic.

And only add w if you want to save the file. :q! If you don’t

so:

• posting not-funny in funny-specific community.
• advertising on a community which has rule against advertising.

5/5 performance right there.

In defence of Warhammer-fans, at least with physical products scarcity can be a thing, and as physical goods they do have resale value.

But yea, plastic crack is expesive. Wish I had a space to use a 3d printer. :P

Do you have any more red flags?

easy!

pledged of US$ 500 goal

US$ 500 goal

so essentially this screams of “grab any money we can and vanish” type of deal

when your main stat is strength, and you’ve entirely ignored int/wis

Seriously though, if the cable doesn’t want to come out with reasonable force, the solution is PROBABLY NOT to apply more force. What kind of cavemen do you have working there?
