Yes, my laptop came with 256GB Kingston RBUSNS8154P3256GJ1 https://www.notebookcheck.net/Kingston- … 712.0.html NVMe as an OS drive + Toshiba 1TB 2.5" HDD with an extra M.2 slot to spare.

The NVMe drive temperature is within higher 60s under load, still far from 84~88°c threshold. But i'm running out of storage space for this drive when I update Windows 10 to 20H2, plus I would like to migrate my game library to a faster drive and at the same time to maintain at least 20% free space on Kingston's.

You will noticed those on the skybox as it was pixellated even at 1080p, as well as walled textures were seemed blurry while on the move. I'd still have the raw video and the comparison are completely noticeable.

80°c is still fine for a laptop but occasionally I'm hitting higher 90s (I disabled BD PROCHOT on Throttlestop) when playing triple A titles, so yeah that's a stock paste for you. I'm gonna repaste it with Gelid GC extreme once my Samsung 1TB 970 EVO plus arrived.

YT's video compression is HORRIBLE, even at 1080p.

Should I crank it up to 50mbps and above while recording on Nvidia ShadowPlay to remove those artifacts?

I used what @ziba128 posted and it directly uses the discrete GPU, and at the same time I was able to set the highest refresh rate available in Video Option's Display Mode.

There are only two caveats which is not a deal-breaker though, but I should take note to those who want to try it:
- The text in Main Menu, Console and in-game's HUD were slightly blurred out and somewhat noticeable thinner borders for the latter especially setting up the resolution in non-4:3 aspect ratio monitors but it still readable enough
- For those who want to use RivaTuner Statistics Server to monitor the PC's performance in BF1942, then in DirectX 8.1 it will work but not using this ENB regardless of settings in RTSS.

Does this happen while gaming or when you also use it during normal sessions like web browsing and productivity work?

If your mouse is still within return period, then do that to where you purchased it and get a replacement.

Although dgVoodoo worked for me and it bypassed my laptop's iGPU (Intel® UHD Graphics 630) and used dGPU instead. But...

Regardless of screen resolution the application forced my refresh rate to 60Hz instead of 144Hz and it terribly produced not just ghosting but also screen tearing whenever I moved around the map, then when I tick "Enumerate refresh rates" in General tab and select my resolution with highest refresh rate available (i.e. 1920x1080, 143Hz) the game refuses to run at all.

It's a shame that it utilized my GTX 1660 Ti mobile GPU like a champ for my DirectX 8-based games and only those above are my drawbacks for dgVoodoo.

P.S.
I'm part of the "dark side" now though...
yikes

What's the use of very high fps if the monitor couldn't throw at it frame-by-frame, plus as of this writing only 360Hz are available for the consumer market and any game, especially older titles like bf1942 had breached beyond the refresh rate of that monitor will produce screen tearing and it's a terrible experience especially for competitive gamers.

As of this writing, only 6+1 "electoral college" votes are needed for Biden/Harris to win.

Sorry to ask this but, just like the rest of the world, does popular vote aren't enough in the US national elections?

#71 Re: BF1942 Discussion » Which OS do you use for playing this old game? » 2020-11-02 09:26:16

I usually played vanilla bf1942 and mods on Ubuntu 12.04 through Wine and for the most part never had any issues except:

* Fast user switching (aka Alt+Tab) will never work in fullscreen mode, though there's a walk-around on that through winecfg by forcing the game in windowed mode; and...
* Punkbuster doesn't work if you want to join a PB-enabled servers for obvious reason.

#74 Re: Technical Help » map loading » 2020-10-17 08:24:00

There's nothing you can do about that, as Forgotten hope secret weapon (a sub-modification of Forgotten hope) is notoriously known for having the longest loading times in Battlefield 1942 mods. That's the price to pay when a mod is having over 700 content at it's disposal!

What's the specs of your rig? Does your GPU a dedicated (e.g. Nvidia Geforce or AMD Radeon) or an integrated (e.g. Intel UHD Graphics or AMD Radeon RX Vega) one, and does it have enough VRAM?

The better solution for that is to create a desktop shortcut of BfVietnam.exe and set the target for a mod that you want to play by adding "+game BfBalkan" (without quotes) for example.

In Japanese atwiki page https://w.atwiki.jp/battlefield1942 look at "<<国内MOD>>(Made in Japan)" section on the left side, click one of the listed mods and go to the ones ended with "とは?"  (translit.: What is) that you would like to see.

for better understanding, just use Google translate.

#82 Re: Feedback » {suggestion}aim improvement » 2020-06-13 18:21:35

Rendering 3D ironsights in BF1942/BFVietnam were terrible due to engine limitations and low-poly count on handweapons in vanilla alone. Some have been done it like BG42:Pacific island assault mod (a BattleGroup42 mod for BFVietnam) and others are in 2D (cough cough XWW2, cough).

Only on matured Refractor 2 engine-based BF2 and it's mods like FH2 make it right.

There's also a latest map pack created by Fizzy as the version 1.1 from bf-games.net's download section is already deprecated.

Fizzy's Map Pack v1.3

Some of the maps are already adopted on bf1942 mods like BattleGroup42 and WarFront.

There are two online servers hosting FHSW; one was from Japan (Kabu.server FHSW0.61) and another from Germany (FHSW0.61 fhsw-europe.com). If it's from the latter then try to contact them in their forum and maybe they can help you.

The only con/s for this gaming laptop was the 144Hz panel that used on this SKU, i.e.:

Hidden text

Poor color accuracy (65% sRGB, 49% Adobe RGB)
Poor response time and ghosting on fast-paced gaming
