TRIPLE it! :P 12:02 Megaf no, resolution in Minetest, that could be like, low, very low 12:02 rdococ Actually, we should just use super awesome futuristic vector screens already. 12:03 * rdococ decides to completely ignore the fact that vector screens already exist, and in fact aren't that great 12:20 Fixer stop tripling resolutions 12:20 Fixer make affordable fucking 1920*1080 instead at least in your fucking craptops 12:21 Fixer who needs 4K shit when you can't even buy <1000usd laptop without shittiest 1366*768 piece of shit from 90s and eyes also bleed 12:22 Krock why not green/black only for the real matrix or hacker feeling? 12:23 Fixer laptop screen from 2017 has worse picture than my 17 year old flat CRT 12:24 Fixer grainy, mirrory and ofc half white - half black 12:25 Fixer also, 60 fps is considered enough, but not under 12:42 Fixer also due to my aging hardware causing BSOD problems espeically on above 100 fps I've installed special tool that caps fps at my choosing 12:43 Fixer to decrease power draw 12:56 * rdococ draws a lightning bolt, frying Fixer's hardware for good 12:57 rdococ what we really need is a cathode ray gun 12:57 rdococ for shooting at stuff! 13:09 Fixer i need to test this, bsods, corrupted screen linked to GPU is not good 13:09 Fixer bsod via ati driver ofc 13:10 Fixer i will not enable vsync, it simply sucks 13:10 Fixer bad mouse lag 13:32 Calinou yeah, not a lot of games bundle V-Sync lag fixes 13:32 Calinou ezQuake does, but not much else 13:32 Calinou (I don't know how it works) 13:32 Calinou make affordable fucking 1920*1080 instead at least in your fucking craptops 13:32 Calinou if you search well, you can find 1080p laptops for €550-600 13:32 Calinou so, it's quite affordable now 13:33 Fixer Calinou: search well 13:33 Fixer Calinou: i've searched and found only some HP Pro Book not quite in 550-600 range 13:33 Fixer and few other 13:35 Calinou which country do you live in? 13:36 Calinou I disabled all FPS caps in games here, gives minimal input lag and maximal smoothness 13:37 Calinou many games lock to 250 FPS (intentional limitation) or 333 FPS though (engine limitation found in all id Tech 3 games) 13:37 Calinou and I can't get Quake 4 above 60 FPS :< 13:37 Fixer Calinou: i've limited it to 100 for now, I have strange crashes/bsod/imagecorruption on very high fps, and i don't want to use vsync 13:38 Fixer crash occurs in two opengl games 13:38 Calinou running Sauerbraten with no FPS cap since a few minutes ago: https://media.hugo.pro/OpenHardwareMonitor_2017-09-24_15-38-02.png 13:38 Fixer minecraft beta and pioneer 13:38 Calinou (temperatures in °C: dark red line is GPU, magenta line is CPU) 13:38 Calinou the game is running at 750-1000 FPS 13:38 Calinou :) 13:38 Fixer and Colin Mcray Rally 2005 (DX one) 13:38 Calinou my monitor has high input lag, so higher FPS helps a lot in minimizing it 13:39 Calinou higher framerates can also decrease ping (or at least the one reported in scoreboard) 13:40 Calinou this is the case in Xonotic at least 13:41 Fixer Calinou: 2 minutes test in OCCT and I have bsod :( 13:42 Fixer PSU values within norm 13:42 Fixer puzzled 13:42 Calinou reset your BIOS settings entirely 13:42 Calinou it helped me once 13:42 Calinou what's your PSU model? 13:42 Fixer i have not changed bios much 13:42 Fixer Calinou: don't remember, probably noname %) 13:43 Calinou IhrFussel: I'm fairly sure most people will notice the difference between 60 Hz and 144 Hz 13:43 Calinou based on the input I got 13:43 Calinou however, I've never had a 144 Hz monitor 13:43 Calinou I'm a 60 Hz pleb :| 13:43 Calinou (32" 1440p doesn't exist above 60 Hz) 13:44 Calinou Fixer: there's your problem :P 13:44 Calinou noname PSUs are bad at handling high load, and are often unsafe 13:44 Fixer Calinou: yes, I'm suspecting that 13:45 Calinou CPU-Z/GPU-Z here: https://media.hugo.pro/2017-09-24_15-45-41.png :P 13:48 Fixer Calinou: https://i.imgur.com/EFpqxVw.png 13:48 Calinou fun fact: Yamagi Quake 2 freezes on start if you set the FPS limit above 500 13:48 Calinou and above 250 FPS, its movement prediction is really wonky 13:49 Calinou the game is pretty smooth at 250 FPS already, there's no real point in having more anyway 13:49 Fixer and your monitor is 60 Hz anyway (probably) 13:50 Calinou it is, yes 13:50 Calinou but having more than 60 FPS decreases perceived input lag, and increases perceived smoothness 13:50 Calinou this is due to how monitors and rendering engines work 13:50 Calinou (G-Sync/FreeSync aim to solve this by introducing variable refresh rates) 13:50 Fixer yeah 13:50 Fixer input lag is different 13:50 Fixer with vsync it is horrible 13:50 Calinou smoothness is also greatly improved by having higher FPS 13:51 Calinou at least on my monitor 13:51 Fixer i've set limiter to 120fps, will investigate if it causes bsods/grey screens 13:51 Fixer grey screen is reported on several amd cards 13:51 Fixer rx480 13:51 Fixer 7970 13:51 Fixer now i have this too 13:52 Fixer some guy found a way, by increasing VDDC iirc 13:52 Fixer it is smth about power supply of videocard, very probably or card problem itself 13:54 Fixer Calinou: when I had shifted screen day ago with image corruption OCCT give me literally no errors, so probably not a ram problem, but if its GPU problem that will suck 13:55 Fixer could be old monitor issue with sync problems somehow causing gpu bsod? 13:58 Calinou I don't know, probably not 13:58 Calinou the GPU does not BSOD, the OS does :) 13:58 IhrFussel Calinou, the average joe will not see any difference, no 13:59 IhrFussel Gamers who play several hours per day maybe 13:59 Calinou you could try overvolting the graphics card a bit (to your own risk) 13:59 Calinou IhrFussel: even if you play a game 10 minutes, you will notice it 13:59 Calinou of course, you need a PC which can consistently output > 60 FPS 14:00 IhrFussel People can barely tell the difference bwteeen a CONSTANT 30 FPS and 60 FPS...I'm not talking about FPS drops 14:01 rdococ I wouldn't mind a system which would vary between 40 ~ 60 FPS. 14:01 IhrFussel Almost all games do have frame drops so of course the player will see that the smooth gameplay isn't as smooth anymore 14:01 rdococ Unfortunately, my system varies from 10 ~ 40 FPS. 14:01 rdococ s/40/30/ 14:35 Megaf Fixer, no screen matches CRT 14:35 Megaf no LCD screen* 14:35 Megaf only Plasma and OLED can be compared to CRT 14:36 Megaf but they will use almost the same amount of energy perhaps, to match CRT in everything 14:37 Megaf and still, the will be stuck to a fixed resolution 14:37 Megaf so yeah, CRT for the win 14:37 Megaf I had a 17" inch SAMSUNG 795 MB CRT that could do 1920x1200. It was awesome 14:39 Megaf https://www.cnet.com/products/samsung-syncmaster-795mb-crt-monitor-17/specs/ 14:45 Jordach Megaf, meanwhile in 240hz LCD panel land 14:46 Jordach what's input lag 15:05 sfan5 so there's this Minecraft in-game modding "convention": http://btm.asie.pl/moon/ 15:05 sfan5 asie has suggested doing a panel on the Minetest engine, supposedly Terasology is doing one too 15:05 sfan5 even though it should be obvious: you need to have a Minecraft account for this 15:05 sfan5 any interest? 15:05 * sfan5 eyes Calinou 15:06 * rdococ eyes an eye 15:16 * Jordach eyes sfan5 15:17 sfan5 >.> 15:19 Calinou lol, that site design 15:19 Calinou "NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT.
