I’m on an AMD system, but adding “VKD3D_CONFIG=no_upload_hvv” to my launch options fixed all the weird stuttering and significant performance issues for me. It disables reBAR while the game is running, which I wouldn’t think would do much, but boy was I surprised when it solved the issues! I’ve also seen some reports on protondb that running the game through game scope might solve your issues on Nvidia hardware.
“Collapsing” by Demon Hunter slaps. Thank you, Killing Floor 2, for introducing me.
The older Tribes titles if you’re into classic arena shooters. Tribes 2 had some maps and modes that were more Battlefield-esque too. The old Age of series were excellent LAN games as well (empires/mythology). These are PC titles and I’m not sure of your target platform.
Epic generally works fine through Heroic launcher. Though I’ve had some occasional problems with Heroic and in those cases Lutris running the Windows Epic Game Store Launcher solved every time. Steam and Proton are still the easiest plug n play though.
My napkin math says I’m closer to $212~ per day for my household… That’s still WAY higher than I would have expected. And we try to be pretty frugal in some areas. That includes taxes though. Just shelter costs ballparks to $90-ish per day. Start adding in food, transportation costs, communication costs, taxes… It all adds up REALLY fast. Close to $200/day in just bare essentials to exist and operate within the modern world in my area of the US.
Literally just started doing this last week. I did NOT expect it to work so much better than the name-brand app for such a “closed system” as Sonos.
My old Nexus 5 was my first smartphone and probably still holds the top spot for price, performance and usability (at the time) of any phone I’ve owned. My current Pixel 6 is somewhat close- but there was just something SO solid and magical about the old Nexus 5.
I’ve got it opening YouTube links by default… At least from within other apps. In Firefox I can also hit “open in app” and it pops right up. Casting works too.
This might be due to windows hibernation behavior. When you shut down windows 10 and 11, it actually hibernates the drive instead of a full shutdown. You can disable it by turning off “fast startup” option(s). I haven’t had to do it in a while so I can’t recall exactly where the option lives. Hibernated drives get marked to prevent writing to them as it may corrupt the windows install.
