I’m into it so far but the traversal stuttering on PC is really hampering my enjoyment of the game.

Wondering if I should have picked up the PS5 version instead.

GPU is Radeon 7900xtx, so pretty new.

I may switch back to distro Steam. I was trying to get as much Flatpaked as possible but getting HDR working is more important to me.

The problems is what constitutes as politics is very different to different people. Is a gay man posting about his relationship with his husband political?

Yeah I was running the game under Plasma 6 with HDR enabled and inside a game scope container.

Sounds like there are some issues with Flatpak and HDR so that may be what I am hitting.

What additional configuration are you referring to?

I got it to engage, the game thinks it’s running in HDR but it just looks really bad

Ah - thanks for the heads up about the Flatpak version. I have everything running in Flatpak, Steam as well, so that may be why I’ve had zero luck with HDR.

Got it working, added to -f --hdr-enabled to the Additional Options section under the upscale options in the Gamescope tab. Note that you need to have upscape ticked even with additional options added.

Unfortunately it looks washed out and awful.

I wouldn’t have thought to try that, thanks. Can confirm it looks like it is running Gamescope now. However I am still not getting an HDR switch in Alan Wake 2.

Getting the following errors:

“CreateSwapchainKHR: Creating swapchain for non-Gamescope swapchain. Hooking has failed somewhere! You may have a bad Vulkan layer interfering. Press OK to try to power through this error, or Cancel to stop.”

“QueuePresentKHR: Attempting to present to a non-hooked swapchain. Hooking has failed somewhere! You may have a bad Vulkan layer interfering. Press OK to try to power through this error, or Cancel to stop.”

Thanks! I actually have that installed already.

How do I tell Heroic to launch the game under gamescope vs the normal compositor?

Don’t they already use FSR on the 5?

What does “experimental color management” mean? Is that HDR support?

Can anyone expand on that?

Sure, you could probably write an awesome new AI for black and white but you could also write an awesome 3d renderer for the original Mario World.

My point was that the AI is really core to the game, and I am not sure how they would replicate it in an accurate manner. If you wrote a new AI it would be a different game.

I wonder how they will translate over the AI from the original. That was a huge part of that game, so much so that I would say Black and White with a different AI isn’t the same game.

Game is Hunt Showdown and they don’t have sharpening as an in game option.

I will take a look at vkBasalt. Little worried that could trigger a ban from their anti-cheat.

I’ll answer this for people using GE - https://github.com/sonic2kk/steamtinkerlaunch/wiki/Wine-FSR

I don’t think these options would work in my scenario but I could be wrong

What is the rest of the text for the bottom one? I must know

The same is true for blue states.

If your vote is not important because your state is locked in on a presidential candidate, local issues / candidates are worth voting on. They can have a more direct impact on your day to day.

Funtoo 2

It was more that older batteries can’t handle the power draw, so they would shut down if the power draw spiked by an expensive operation.

It was a really bad user experience so Apple throttled so phones wouldn’t crash.

Good quote. Here is more of it for context:

Fable was profitable - “highly profitable”, Lionhead’s Simon Carter told Eurogamer - but in a now too-familiar story, it and its genre was seen by Microsoft as just not profitable enough. “That category is not the biggest category on the planet,” said Robbie Bach, who was the President of Entertainment & Devices Division at Microsoft before Don Mattrick assumed the role. “It’s not soccer. It’s not American Football. It’s not a first-person shooter sized category. So at a commercial level, I would say it was successful, but not wildly so.”

Wildly successful was what Microsoft was after. A pitch for Fable 4 was rejected. “It was like, you’ve reached your cap of players for RPG on Xbox and you need to find a way to double that, and you’re not going to do it with RPG,” Fable’s art director John McCormack told Eurogamer at the time. “I thought, yes we can. I said, look, just give us four years, proper finance, give us the chance Mass Effect has, Skyrim has, the games at the time. They’re getting four years and a lot of budget. Give us that, and we’ll give you something that’ll get you your players. Nah, you’ve had three shots and you’ve only tripled the money. It’s not good enough. Fuck off. That’s what I was annoyed about.” (Worth noting: Skyrim went on to sell 63m copies, as of June 2023, The Witcher 3 over 50m.)
