yea, 3090 sure won't do 4k rt in basically anything. I tried Cyberpunk on 4k (with the nvidia whatever resolution thingy which lets you use resolutions higher than native res), and cyberpunk basically was 30fps max on any settings. 1440p is a lot smoother ride.
Malix
1440p, dlls transformer balanced, ultra all, rt high, path tracing off. Runs fairly stable 60 fps everywhere. Dogtown streets and the market street in the arena dip noticeably tho. (Edit: one or two niche options might be one step down from max)
Edit: other specs of my system are 5800x3d, 32gb ram. Atm running on linux, but I did run it for years on win10 on same hardware
Added support for AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution Frame Generation 3.1 for compatible hardware. It can now be used in combination with any upscaler.
So, if I'm parsing this right, I can use it with dlss upscaler? Kinda wild. Nice to have the option, even if I'm not nescessarily going to use it. (Edit: my 3090 doesn't support dlss fakeframes). Anyway, gotta try it out and see how it do.
Updated the End User Licence Agreement. You will be asked to accept it again when you load the game after updating.
got to wonder what's changed in there. I always dread these things.
heh, I was just watching it, saw your post about it. Thanks for making this!
The differences seem pretty minimal, although occasionally the frametime graph looks a bit less bumpy on ntsync side, but that's about it. Even if the avg, 1% and so framerates are tad lower.
got to wonder if that launch might be simultaneous with the 2.3 update
AFAIK the hype went overdrive because some performance numbers showed like 200-700 % higher framerates (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.14-NTSYNC-Driver-Ready) - which were apparently comparisons to running games without e/f-sync vs ntsync.
maybe perhaps related to this: https://arstechnica.com/security/2025/07/browser-extensions-turn-nearly-1-million-browsers-into-website-scraping-bots/
the affected addons list only mentions jiffyreader for chrome (or some addon masquerading as actual jiffy reader). Could be Mozilla found the addon doing something it shouldn't?
edit: in jiffy reader's github: https://github.com/ansh/jiffyreader.com/issues/342
~~blender 2.79b was the last one to ship with the engine, it's been abandoned for ages~~

This looks absolutely delightful. Thanks for sharing!
they're not really platformers like, eg. Mario, they're a lot slower with the focus being on environmental puzzles (levers, boxes, elevators, avoiding obvious enemy sight etc), with the occasional escape sequences here and there. The puzzles aren't really any sort of headscratchers, basically "how do I get there? oh, I drop this box to break the floor here (telegraphed hard)"
If Little Nightmares -series is familiar, they're basically like that. While the puzzles aren't hard, they're generally timed to allow the obvious enemy to get close enough for the player to "pucker up" a bit and then flee the scene with a relief.
Finished Kathy Rain 2 few hours ago. Very nice point & click game with reasonable puzzles. The first game and this one went kinda off the rails towards the end, but it seems like "a thing" this series does, I say hoping there's a 3rd one.
The pixel art is just stupidly gorgeous with modern lighting/reflection effects and voice acting is good accross the board.
If anything negative, there's quite a bit of back and forth traveling to unlock-stuff-to-do-the-thing-elsewhere, it comes a off as a bit of "trial and error" style of exhausting options to get the crucial hint to progress. But other than that, the game is great.
There's absolute bonkers amounts of cosmetic mods. Most body/clothing/chrome mods depend on other mods so I just don't bother, I like to keep it rather simple.
That said; there's few mods I do recommend:
But at the end of the day: only you know what you want with mods.
Worth noting that some mods require other mods, a notable one is CyberEngineTweaks (CET). CET will crash your game if you're not running a version specifically made for the version of the game you're using -> this means that every update, regardless of how minor, will break CET, which will make game crash on launch. The dev is generally quick to update, sometimes few hours after a patch drops, sometimes within a day or two. It's not the end of the day to wait a bit, imo.
