Quoting: CorbenI'm wondering which are those price differences within the EU? Checking SteamDB the countries using Euros aren't listed separately. So I guess at least via the Steam store those prices are all the same. Then it will be keys that you can buy through retail boxes, and I guess there the store which sells them defines the price. Having those region locked seems strange to me.

I guess it is referring to the practice of distributing some Game Keys and blocking them if issued in a different country, which sounds like a scheme for applying different prices.

No. They've included the (proprietary) library with their (proprietary) driver, exactly as I said. What they haven't done, and aren't likely to, is help open source projects - like vkd3d or Q2RTX - make any use of that. I'd like it if it were different, but it isn't.

It is:

It is a company, with Resource Management and project assignments for its employees. It isn't that they wake up in a morning and say: "wow, let's help vkd3d-proton guys today".

Quoting: ikirutoI think if Nvidia herself takes on helping the developers of VKD3D, then anything is possible. But this is fantastic. :)

Nvidia had the opportunity to create a means to utilise the DLSS library that they include with their driver in their own open source game, and they explicitly refused to.

It's entirely within their means to be more helpful, but they don't want to; that's why lots of people have a low opinion of them.

Quoting: The_Aquabatinteresting thanks for the command, I wonder if this works with other games. taskset does not solve this problem?

taskset changes the process affinity to cores, and it works in some cases. But if the kernel finds out that a core (with lower affinity) is free and there is a scheduled thread, it will assign it to the free core.

In order to let CP2077 work properly with my CPU (a AMD Ryzen ThreadRipper), I had to force the shutdown of the cores far from the GPU bus in the hw topology.

I dealt with it very personally some time ago: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/3933/post_id=25255

Or for lazy people like me, try these commands here below:

 
$ cp Cyberpunk2077.exe{,bak}
$ offset=$(xxd -u -p Cyberpunk2077.exe | tr -d '\n' | grep -ob 753033C9B8010000000FA28BC8C1F908 | cut -d: -f1); echo 743033C9B8010000000FA28BC8C1F908 | xxd -r -p -s $(($offset>>1)) - Cyberpunk2077.exe

Quoting: einherjar*cries in NVidia*

it works also for NVidia btw.

I have completed the tutorial and the first mission (2h of gameplay so far). No critical bugs or issues so far on Nvidia RTX 3090.

So basically you shed only one two tears:tongue: Hope it's fixed asap.

I have to correct myself: it works better than expected.

I have been able to record and post a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N2J3C-YYpU [External Link]

(it is a fresh video, HD resolution is still under processing)

Just the following remarks:

• The graphics with no RayTracing is abismal


• The framerate with no DLSS is criminal (20 FPS)

All the graphical settings (textures, shadows, etc.) can give me a gain of 3fps if I put everything in low. Honestly it is better than expected.

Online services don't work for me, and tbf I don't consider it a bug actually...

Here below a few screenshots:

Quoting: mishugashuThis is the first time I've seen AMD ahead of Nvidia! The times are changing. Maybe next time I need to buy a GPU, it'll be AMD. What a world.

Honestly I was going to purchase an AMD GPU at this round, and I would have if I had found any in the stores.

By the time there will be back again a supply of AMD cards, CP2077 will be fully playable on Nvidia too.

Quoting: scaineI'm currently running the latest 5.9 from mainline using the low-latency option. It works really well, but I think I might give Liquorix a shot, since it will update automatically, AND includes the fsync patches. Liquorix (https://liquorix.net [External Link] ) support PPA and AUR updates, which is pretty cool.

If you're on an Arch-based disto, apparently the Zen kernel is also worth a shot (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Kernels&oldid=407966#Official_packages [External Link] ).

Anyone know of any other reliable, solid options for kernel upgrades, particularly on an Ubuntu-based distro?

I don't know. I tried both of them but in my case they both introduced some stuttering and lagging in both the Desktop Environment and the games. Even with the most recent 5.9.0-9.1 release.

In my experience (and I have tried several kernel releases and flavours. A few threads in this forum can prove it) nothing has been better than recompiling the vanilla Linux kernel from a stable or LTS branch. Having the latest brand new bleeding-edge kernel release might be good for testing purposes, but for demanding both performance and reliability you have to stick with the stable releases.

Quoting: LordDaveTheKindKingdom Come: Deliverance. Let me get this straight: the game is borked like hell, and not because of Proton.

Wonder if the latest patches introducing mod support did more harm than good there. I played it shortly after it came out and it was smooth sailing, except for some stability issues I attributed to certain DXVK versions.

It is more stable, excluding some crashes when going in prison or on fast travel. Mods (in particular the Auto-Save ones) are essential for playing it.
