peq42Keymaster
new update after a while: Solarxr IPC Driver is now supported on monado! And wivrn apparently has implemented that version as of a week ago
all thats left is a feeder app, according to a contributor on github
peq42KeymasterVRChat performance on Linux Mint got a bit better, with the new kernel 6.14 being available(it improves Wine/Proton performance)
The new kernel sadly didn’t fix the 1 month+ old issue with Linux Mint and some Realtek network adapters(that come in many motherboards). It still is crashing when I try making a hotspot using 5Ghz
peq42KeymasterBlender 4.5 LTS is officially out!
- Vulkan backend is now equivalent to OpenGL, supporting OpenXR, Subdivision, USD/Hydra, and more, with improved performance. OpenGL remains the default for Blender 4.5.
- Linux users see enhancements for Wayland and X11 platforms.
- Blender 4.5 introduces new nodes: Vector Math, Vector Rotate, Vector Mix, Value Mix, Clamp, Float Curve, and Blackbody.
- Dependency graph building is up to 18% faster in Blender 4.5 for data-intensive projects.
- Adaptive Subdivision has been improved with multi-threading for better performance.
- Eevee’s texture loading and shader compilation are now faster and multi-threaded by default.
- Liquid simulation performance in Blender 4.5’s physics code is 1.25 to 1.5 times faster.
- Blender 4.5 supports ProRes video output, multiple SVG imports, and various file handling improvements.
- Big Endian support is deprecated and will be removed in Blender 5.0.
- macOS support for Intel hardware is deprecated, with Blender 4.5 being the last official release for Intel-powered Macs.
peq42KeymasterVersion 8.5 Alpha 1 is out!
- Closures and first-class callables in constant expressions.
- Backtraces available on fatal errors.
- #[\NoDiscard] attribute to highlight the importance of consuming a function’s return value.
- (void) cast to intentionally disregard a value.
- Support for casts within constant expressions.
- Introduction of the pipe operator.
- New array functions: array_first() and array_last().
- PHP CLI now supports “–ini=diff” to show changes from default INI settings.
peq42KeymasterVRChat remains stable 2 weeks later with the experimental proton version, which makes me believe the final 10.0 update onward will work just fine with it.
SlimeVR however seems to not work properly. The app, I believe, was made using java and even with openjdk installed it would just display a blank screen. I’m reporting it to devs to see what its about
EDIT: Seems like that was only the flathub version. Some incompatibility with wayland? Anyway I tried the .deb on their github and it worked just fine
peq42KeymasterFeature request to WiVRn denied, but for a good reason: They want to keep compatibility and whatnot with other tools as easy and good as possible. Thankfully I been shown a tool I didn’t know called “wlx-overlay-s” that should work with WiVRn(and even steamVR, monado and others) so thats good
peq42KeymasterProblem is, even with upgrades the type of cable used is way too fragile when compared to something like usb c
Personally I sent my extensions to a friend whos upgrading them into full trackers for me
peq42Keymasterlittle bit of an update: The cables mentioned in 4 have been improved according to them and are covered under warranty. I got the new ones and, at least within a month, they haven’t broken/shown any signs of breaking
Update 2(22/04/2025): made no difference. Two months or so after it arrived and problems started happening again. The trackers also come with horrible wifi adapters that every so often have problems.
peq42Keymasteroh and as an extra bit: The wiki links to cables, which is nice if you need replacements(you will very soon after getting them)
not so nice is how the aliexpress link doesn’t tell you the cables are basically ONLY HALVES.
peq42KeymasterNew version just came out officially, so I tested on my system(has a Ryzen 7 7800x3D) and… well barely any difference at all in games.
On top of that, the (much) lower amount of threads decreased the performance for productivity(video editing, blender and overall multitasking if there are lots of applications open) a bit, so overall not a good trade
peq42KeymasterAlso can we all agree to let UserBenchmark die? https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Intel-Core-Ultra-9-285K/Rating/4173
Saying “he Intel Core Ultra 9 285K averaged 37.9% higher than the peak scores attained by the group leaders. This is an excellent result which ranks the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K near the top of the comparison list.” outside of April Fools is quite sad
peq42KeymasterGood bye Google! Thanks to the help of the form plugin devs, the forms no longer make use of google’s recaptcha!
peq42KeymasterEver since this update, 38% of all requests hit Cloudflare‘s cache instead of the website’s servers, reducing bandwidth usage in 27%.
Page loading speed, derived from script updates, improved by about 10% for users near the server(in Brazil) and about 50%+ to users far away. Total Blocking Time also is now under 70ms on all benchmarks.
peq42KeymasterNew few changes made to the backend to simplify some queries to the database.
On top of that, further re-coloring has happened: Side menu is now a very dark shade of blue, links are a shade of orange and so are buttons. Home link now won’t reset the whole website to english if you’re navigating the portuguese version
peq42Keymaster1.1.5 changes:
Server>
-Fixed issue where admin passwords, whispers, etc would show in global chat
-Fixed error causing Free4All server to immediately disconnectClient>
-Improved Multiplayer synchronization between players -
