Finally went to a proper industrial party again, and it was a joy. Udo Wiessmann from Winterkälte and a tiny Japanese girl called Yu Kawabata, who played one hell of a set. Very danceable sound, and surprisingly similar in its vibe to the Darkpsy of Deviant Force Records, a label here from […]

Yay, #Nvidia released a new version of the #DLSS5 DLL with much better performance. \o/ Of course it doesn't work with the #OptiScaler fork that I'm using now because of much better compatibility compared to the ReShade add-ons. 🙄 No worries though, in this day and age it shouldn't take more […]

Very enjoyable game so far. Didn't know how much I missed cover shooters. The gunplay is awesome. Everything has such an impact. Optics are gorgeous; Megalights is doing a great job in creating almost a path traced look. DLSS 5 works very well and pushes it into photorealistic CGI territory […]

Now that I finally have a good baseline, I can apply #DLSS5. Looks pretty good. Interestingly there seems to be none of the brightness flickering that I've seen in other #UE5 games. Is this Lumen behaving differently? Or Megalights? #gearsofwareday

Of course default HDR settings are completely off and look terrible. The menu also exposes Unreal's HDR variables directly, which are kinda unintuitive. A bit of tweaking later I now have something resembling good (= similar to other UE5 games after calibration) HDR output with correct […]

"self-defense" Google Maps updated its satellite images of #Gaza. I knew it was bad, but I wasn't expecting such a level of destruction. I've never seen anything like this. Whole cities just gone. Completely eradicated. I don't care about the reasons. This is pure barbarity. It's despicable.

Turns out #ControlResonant becomes much more enjoyable when un-sponging the enemies through the magic of cheating. Now the game has a nice pace. Most environments are still kinda meh (matter of personal taste), but there actually is a bunch of nice FBC lore to find, and that's what it's all […]

Playing #ControlResonant. Not a fan so far. I don't like the combat. It feels chaotic and the enemies are frustratingly spongy. Even graphically it's a downer. Yes, the path tracing is gorgeous and surprisingly performant, but the environments are boring compared to the mid-century brutalism […]

Octopuses (Octopi? Octopussies?) can flips their colors in under 0.2 seconds. That's about 5 fps, which is borderline playable. So the question is: Can you run Doom on an Octopus?

Playing 007 First Light with path tracing and DLLS 5. ~ 30 fps on a 5090 lol, but with 4x frame generation surprisingly playable.

One consequence of the wide availability of high quality coding agents is that game modding became incredibly fast. It's like four days since the DLSS 5 DLL leaked, and now there's already modded support for older GPUs down to RTX20, and games without build-in support for DLSS and down to Dx9 […]

Testing the leaked #DLSS5 DLL with Cyberpunk 2077. Performance is abysmal, but the results - oh boy! The vanilla game looks broken in comparison, even with path tracing. With DLSS 5 there is SO much more depth and detail in faces. In seriously looks a whole generation apart.
