The worst kind of an Internet-herpaderp. Internet-urpo pahimmasta päästä.
AFAIK the hype went overdrive because some performance numbers showed like 200-700 % higher framerates (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.14-NTSYNC-Driver-Ready) - which were apparently comparisons to running games without e/f-sync vs ntsync.
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.
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)
While I do agree, I dunno how meaningful or realistic data it would offer when some users switch between platforms.
huh? or did I miss something here?
edit: or are plain-text curlable websites a feature I’m not aware of? Or curl’ers use some striptags feature?
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. :/
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:
5/5 performance right there.
Do you have any more red flags?
easy!
pledged of US$ 500 goal

so essentially this screams of “grab any money we can and vanish” type of deal
corn and petting? the future sounds great!
thanks for the explanation.
so… corn? Is this a thing or just something edible the cartoonist randomly chose?
But I do like corn though.
What do you mean, you don’t use string parsing method to round to integers? /s
couldn’t post as they’re still trying to escape their selfmade hell. /s
heh, I was just watching it, saw your post about it. Thanks for making this!
The differences seem pretty minimal, although occasionally the frametime graph looks a bit less bumpy on ntsync side, but that’s about it. Even if the avg, 1% and so framerates are tad lower.
