That’s nice. But I think most people literally just hook up the big screen with an actual display cable.
Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

There were apparently several, now that I look into it. I didn’t know that.
They seem to try to mitigate other issues, like asset streaming and other general bad practices in the code of the game.
It seems there are many things wrong with how Elden Ring was coded.
I suspect most people who buy one already have another gaming device. If I’m gonna play couch co-op games, I’m just switching the video output of my desktop to the projector, not docking my deck.
I do want to add that new games can also require new packages, the way Alan Wake II did at launch. Even on Arch you had to compile the development version of Mesa for it to run.
Yes. But Valve didn’t do anything special. They provide pre-compiled shaders for all games on the deck and can only do so because of how directx shaders are handled on linux.
All games on linux and windows when using DX12/Vulkan must compile shaders. They should be compiled during loading screens and such, not gameplay, then cached for use later.
Elden Ring in particular, didn’t precompile shaders before gameplay, and then when it did compile them, it would discard the shaders rather than cache them. As a result the stutter would happen non-stop and never go away.
On linux, the equivalent compiled vulkan shaders are cached by VKD3D, eliminating the stutter except when a shader is used for the first time. On the deck, Valve will deliver the shaders precompiled with the game download to eliminate the need to compile them at all.
The fix of providing precompiled shaders was only possible on linux due to the use of VKD3D. And even without them, on linux the stutter would go away after a while as VKD3D will cache them even when the game doesn’t. Fromsoft had to update the game to fix it from their side on windows.
It is. In fact at launch it ran better than on high end windows PCs because linux handles directx shaders better.
Oh hey, the delivery girl is back!
She’s cute.
Immersion, yes, but also haptics provide feedback.
Lots of games use it to tell you things, like when your health is low, when to time something, when you took damage vs blocked successfully, when you’re close to a secret…
Used right, it’s another sensory input channel in addition to sound and visuals.
One of the biggest genres that I use a controller for, because I consider KBM to be unplayable for it, is racing games. And there haptics are used to tell you TONS about what is happening in the game.
I set up !ballisticng@sopuli.xyz as I’ve seen the game mentioned all over lemmy now.
Hoping to eventually organize some online tournaments, but we’re gonna need players :D

Hoping to organize some online tournaments. Maybe monthly? Gonna need players :D
50?
So they left out vibration so it wouldn’t be the usual 60?
Those savings don’t take the price down to “will buy” they take the featureset down to “will never buy”.
You can disable the news pop up that opens with steam, and it opens to your library, not the store page.
The only “hype” it’ll show you then are the news on the library pages for the games you own.
Other way around. Pure and Pulse were PSP first, then PS2 and later PS3.
The PS2 port of Pulse is graphically superior, and can be run using PCSX2. HD has the same content.
Instability might be due to shader translation, should go away as more shaders are compiled and cached.
Vita3k for 2048 runs very well (with compilation stutters only at first), and you can get the HD and Fury DLC for it to access the PS3 content (though with lesser graphics).
Nah I think most of us just don’t think this one makes sense.
Like I get in what way it’s supposed to be funny. It just isn’t.
Me: is this some joke I have too many known-good btrfs snapshots to understand?
Yeah that’s the right way.
You’ve still got some brackets in odd places but nothing that breaks anything.
Naw dude you just broke it.
They are telling you to remove the markdown links entirely, and just plain write the names of the communities, they will turn into local links on most clients.
Short of answering any questions about a product I ask, all of them.
If I want or need something, I will come looking. Anything beyond that is the market trying to solicit demand where none need exist.
So much waste could be eliminated if that just… Stopped.
