Fixed a bug which caused Dynamic Boost to not engage on certain Ampere GPU based notebooks.
Added support for Dynamic Boost on notebooks with AMD CPUs.


I hope one of these means they finally fixed
this [External Link] bug.

Tempest Rising looks like the RTS I've been waiting for
16 Aug 2022 at 7:31 am UTC

Quoting: Just_IrishThe last Classic RTS I enjoyed was C&C Kane's Wrath. Everything else to follow with that formula has fallen short. I hope that this turns out fantastic and not make the mistakes that a lot of developers have in the last decade. I'm always a big fan of Doom-like rip-and-tear music, so just this reveal trailer is getting me hyped. Graphics are looking pretty legit, too.
Same here! Still playing C&C3 KW with my buddies every now and then (works great on wine/proton btw).
I am pretty excited for this one!
Could it finally be the successor of C&C3 KW for our LAN evenings?! :grin:

Don't Starve Together: Waterlogged is out adding a new ocean biome

Don't Starve (Together) is so much fun and with the updates there is always something new to explore.
The only issue (for me) is that you have to invest so much time into the game to get somewhere.

Quoting: Arcadius-8606This all look interesting but I can not get pass the steps to get this up and running properly on POP OS 21.04. Is there a demo file I can use to see if this is working? Something like the homebrew stuff for other emulators.
Use this guide:

And follow the firmware section of this Reddit thread to get even more games working:

Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu gets much improved performance and rendering accuracy

Quoting: KristianIs there any reason this would not run or would run comparatively badly on a Steam Deck?
Not really. Considering the ongoing improvement and optimizations with emulators, the Deck will be great.
I dubt it would be enough powerfull on the cpu side, but i hope to be really wrong
I've been able to run some games on my Ryzen 5 3500u in Yuzu.
New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe runs at a stable 60fps for instance (undocked).
That was before these optimisations were implemented.
I assume the Steam Deck APU is more capable than the 3500u.

Quoting: SlipieI hope that one day they will fix the HiDPI issue:

Right now everything on the screen is so tiny by default.
I kinda worked around it with this theme https://github.com/MoriTanosuke/HiDPI-Steam-Skin [External Link] but it makes steam ugly and inconsistent.
Actually one of the apps in a long list that look terrible in HiDPI, I ended up moving back to a 1080p monitor until things can be improved.
Yeah I should have looked into that before I bought a laptop with a 3k screen.
