I’ve never had issues with Cura losing my stuff (been using it with an Ender 3 since… 2019 I think) but the backup plugin is connected with your account. It’s a wonderful thing! New computer? Login, restore backup, everything is like you left it.
I do make sure to use it before any update because I have seen the same kind of posts as you have.
In Voyager I had to “delete” my account from the interface and then add it back again before it worked again. Now in fairness the button shows “log out” while doing so, but still it was an unusual step so probably nice for others to know. :)
Depends. Lately I’ve been playing things that are not… ideal on the Deck. For example American Truck Simulator runs very well, BUT! I kinda doze off if it’s night, so my way around that is a big screen, less comfortable position (plain old sitting at a desk) and a secondary screen with Netflix or something. Snow runner I prefer the Deck. It just feels right. Also my main game got me playing regularly again, and when it’s the PS version… can’t really play it on the Deck.
So yeah, it’s down. Hilariously too, if you consider that for ATS I’m just using my Mac!
Side note: it hurts bad to see Baldur’s Gate running… smoother than on anything else I have, because it’s lightweight enough graphically, but the base M2 whips both the Deck’s cpu (fair enough) and the Ryzen 3600 in my gaming pc that should be better because of the RTX 3060…
How old of a Xeon? Because it won’t be a fast result, but maybe you are fine with it. Back when I tried this, SD 1.5 could do 20 steps at 512x512 on my Ryzen 5 3600 in roughly 7 minutes…
Yeah, I think I overdid the bit with “extra detail” and ended up giving her an older look. Still an image I’m happy to have wrangled out of Stable Diffusion :D
Doing it the PS3 way could be the least complex option: just auto turn on 30 seconds to check if there’s updates every day, download if needed. On the deck it would also require a power check (just don’t if it’s not plugged in) and a further check if it’s a connection marked as having limited data. Still a decent solution imo.
You can craft stuff, upgrade weapons and space suits. Lots of things are just crap to sell, and here’s a thing I enjoy doing: I find a mission asking me to kill a pirate in a ship somewhere, go there, “convince” them to let me in their ship, then I “negotiate” a transfer of ownership. I land somewhere I can buy and sell ships, sell my new acquisition. ALL THE CRAP it had gets moved into my ship. I go sell dozens of note pads, singular playing cards, half eaten sandwiches and so on, all nearly worthless stuff but it adds up lol
Yep. The os isn’t tiny, plus there’s all sorts of extra stuff. For example 1gb is gone on every Deck because that’s reserved for swap… and then shader cache sneaks in and depending on the game you might run out of space in no time.
