Quoting: KlaasSo we expect a performance boost from FSR 2.1, but we do not know how much performance is decreased by the engine switcheroo.That's true! Guess we'll find out on December 14th though.

Quoting: setzer22Nice, I remember not being able to reach consistent 30FPS for this game on my Steam Deck, so I'm wondering if the new version will make performance a bit better.Judging by Liam's video on Cyberpunk (in the article), I'd imagine you'll see a 10-15fps jump from FSR 2.1. It's an insane performance bump.

Quoting: dibzThey should have just copied Debian's different release names from the start, "stable, testing, and unstable."Yeah, but no way a commercial firm is putting "unstable" in the title of pretty much anything!
Doesn't get more straight forward then that.

I'd just prefer that they created an Xcomposite capture that somehow recognised games - like capturing anything that started a borderless fullscreen canvas, for example.

Quoting: CorbenI mentioned my solution for this on Discord a while back, but will repeat here. I have one "Game" scene which has about 20 sources - one source (Xcomposite) named and capturing each of the games I play. Then, when I switch to the Games scene, it automatically picks up whatever game happens to be running. Yes, it requires a touch of maintainance here and there, but it means that I don't have to constantly update one Xcomposite source to a new game window whenever I decide to play something else.Quoting: XpanderYeah i heard that, but why switch from a working solution to something that breaks plugins :(From what I've heard, nobody wants to touch that code anymore. So it had to go. With the switch to qt6 many plugins broke... well, the usual update thingy, sometimes old stuff has to be cut off :-/
Too bad if really good functionality is lost then.
Quoting: XpanderXcomposite is pretty similar to perf with nvfbc to be honest, thats not an issue really, but i have to select what window i want to record then every time and if i want to record whole desktop, its sad story. Fullscreen capture (XSHM) is just epicly slow when you launch a game on the desktop. nvfbc was performant in all situations.Exactly my reasons to use nvfbc still as well. I can just select one of my workspaces to capture, don't have to create sources for each window, etc...
Before I used nfvbc I had one scene where I created a capture window for each game, and used it as a nested scene in my main scene. But still, needed it's own source for each window to capture.
Hmm... how about a tool, that just creates a "window" of a workspace? Is something like that available? If there was a performant way of doing that, it would solve this issue.

Quoting: hardpenguinLove this game but it was riddled with bugs on Linux, including locking the display.Wow - I never experienced a single bug! I guess I've only played around 20 hours though, and only in multiplayer. You know, honestly, given the chaos of this game, maybe there WERE loads of bugs and I just took them for gameplay. Absolutely possible in a three-player game! :grin:
Old Unity version was the suspected culprit so an update might be a great thing here.
Ubisoft making a return to Steam with Assassin's Creed Valhalla on December 6th

But as someone who won't buy a Denuvo game, ever, I appreciate that the plug-in puts that information on the store page in a way that I can't overlook. It also does, way, way more than just alert me to various DRM. I particularly like the link to ProtonDB, and also the price matching you get for stores like Fanatical. The colour-matching on wishlist and library items is also great. I pretty much can't browse the store using the client these days - web all the way for me!

Quoting: mylkaYep, of course. I wasn't intending to give the impression that you needed the plugin for that.Quoting: scainethis info is right above the languages. you do not need an addonQuoting: BlackBloodRumDid they remove Denuvo yet? :neutral:According to Augmented Steam (extension for Firefox)... nope.
nice to have ubisoft back. i like AC and FC. splinter cell remake and hopefully a new prince of persia
but i hate the launcher. just a waste of DISC and RAM. especially on the stream deck you do not need more junk wasting RAM

I have fond memories of these guys - GBA, DS, 3DS, Gamecube, Wii, and even Wii U. It was that last one that broke me. Annoyingly, I'd bought it before they announced that they were closing the DS and Wii stores. If I'd seen that dick-move coming, I wouldn't have wasted my money.
They're repeating the move next year, closing 3DS and Wii U digital stores, presumably, again, to force existing customers to upgrade to Switch. But why bother? You know they'll just do it again, over and over - mediocre mid-term hardware release, then announce store closures of all older hardware.
Being a Nintendo fan at this point is like being an Apple fan. Same model really, and feasible if you keep opening your wallet.

Such an amazing game, especially in online co-op with a couple of friends. Absolute, utter, glorious chaos.
