  1. It's possible that cvar isn't archived or something like that. Whatever the reason, you can probably get around this by adding that cvar to your autoexec.cfg in your darkmod folder.
  2. I've had a brief look at the code. It indeed looks like unbindPad only unbinds the pad buttons. However, I just discovered a workaround: try setting in_padDeadZone to 2.0 . This increases the deadzone to values the sticks can never reach, effectively disabling the sticks.
  3. Stuff like this can usually be avoided by using bordlerless windowed mode rather the exclusive fullscreen, or toggling between these modes.
  4. Oh thanks for reminding me. Time to catch up on a supposed masterpiece.
  5. I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.

  6. Wouldn't those be rather low-res for TDM? Also, what is the licensing on those textures?

    Deathloop actually did quite well financially. It's also been out 4 years, so it's no surprising at all that it's free on Epic by now. I absolutely adored Deathloop for its unique style of multiplayer. If you don't enjoy multiplayer, then this game is not for you.
  8. The whole story of The Witcher has always been all about Ciri and anyone who does not see that is not a true Witcher fan. Even people who just played the games should know that the story of Geralt ended in the Blood and Whine DLC. Also, Ciri is actually considered a witcher, so the series naming still fits. That being said, I do hope they do something interesting with the combat system. Playing as Ciri in W3 was always soo boring.
  9. Seems like it. Multiple gaming news outlets have been reporting about it as well. I bet @cabalistic is probably jumping with excitement, when he reads this.

    SIFU is sooooo good, if you enjoy brawler-like games.
  11. I actually fixed it now. My 3060 Ti OC used to overheat. I RMA'd it, but Gigabyte was having none of it. So, I had to undervolt it to prevent it from overheating, and it turns out, that undervolt is simply not stable in some modern games, most notably UE5 games. I had tested many games and benchmarks with that undervolt and never had problems. Then two years later, problems suddenly arise. I ruled out that the undervolt could be responsible for the crashes because I saw the game crashing even with "MSI Afterburner" (the undervolt / overclock tool) closed. However, this conclusion was simply incorrect, because closing MSI Afterburner does not revert the GPU to stock state, the undervolt will stick. I am now running a super conservative undervolt with a slight underclocking of my GPU and the game is absolutely stable and I can now even raise many settings to high or epic, which used to produce the crash much sooner. I finished the game by now and I too am blown away. Here's my review, if you care for it. I omitted all my technical issues with the game, because those were simply on my stupidity.
  12. Man, these crashes are getting out of hand, I am in the finale of act 2 and it keeps crashing on me... It's so annoying that I am thinking about quitting, although I really enjoy the game and I am so close to the finish-line. It's a huge bummer! Some people reported that switching to DX11 renderer would help with the constant crashes, but it didn't work for me. I tried various ini tweaks etc. Just now I even tried disabling DLSS and setting everything to low. Still crashes eventually. It seems to dependent on the area, as I had sections of the game without any crashes for a whole evening. Then again, there were sessions were I had 10 crashes. I eventually created a "kill and restart" batch so that I at least could quickly get back into the game. By the way, it turns out that those LOD issues were due to me using the DX11 renderer.
  13. Avowed looked like a 9/10 for me at first, because exploration, visuals and combat were great. However, after some time, I found the pay-off of the exploration was not very high, as the loot is mostly meaningless (yaaaay, a tree branch). Then there's the problem with the lacking enemy variety and, as a result, also lacking combat variety. The few basic enemy types are also grouped up in the wildest combinations, which kind of eats away from immersion. The soundtrack also gets old rather qickly, which led me to put on the "Epic Fantasy Music"-Playlist on Spotify in the background... Eventually, I stopped playing for these reasons, but would still rate it 7/10. For Anti-woke-warriors, this game will probably be more of a 4/10 or something like that...
  14. I like Clair Obscur quite a bit, but it crashes fairly often for me. Also, in Act 2, some of the models look really broken, as if an LOD-model was loaded in rather than the high-poly model. It is weird, because I know that the game uses Nanite. Did they actually intentionally include such low-poly models or is this bugged?
  15. Sorry for not being around enough lately. I am extremely busy at the moment. We are trying to build a home and the German bureaucracy is killing me! Meanwhile, child number 2 is underway. 🙂
