Replacing inverse transpose matrices with adjugate matrices in our new code base. Inverse transpose is slower to calculate and less robust.
@EricLengyel wrote a fantastic article about that:

@IanCutress ian you should make path tracing work at 60 fps on the steam deck
English
I made some of my code 23x faster in about 15 minutes. Turns out I'd completely fucked the memory access pattern and spilled over my per-thread register allocation. And this was in 64-bit. A friend then accelerated it another 10x by changing a complicated predicate into a mask.

I think it's possible they delay dlss 5, not because of any backlash but because I find it really implausible that they actually make it work on even a 5090 in 6 months.

@DS2LightingMod has anyone tried it on handhelds like steam deck? lol

Performance testing thanks to discord member Loreciao. Looks like RTX 2060 onwards should be able to hit 60 for HD as well with Quality mode. Was a bit concerned about first gen RTX cards.
Specs:
2560x1080 Resolution (21:9)
R7 5800x
RTX 2070 Super.
DLSS Quality (Preset F)

@AgileJebrim @prime_31 from what i see online, it's similar to Switch 2, not the 9 year old Switch 1 these games were built for... i understand your frustration with the engine though.
English
I generally like Nintendo games but the engine Nintendo uses for BotW/TotK contains content popping and performance stutters. That was personally disappointing to me.

@Jawmuncher @XaelEpcut they should just add an alternative for the server check (like a password or something) that they publicly disclose when the game goes live.
English
@XaelEpcut Nope. To enforce these kind of restrictions, they’re done via online checks now.
Which benefits a short-term problem but not a long-term one. As that check will mean anyone that tries to play (even after release) will need an online check before being able to play offline
English
No game should be doing this.
As you’re effectively asking for physical titles to be coasters from here on out.
Physical titles being fully on the disc > leaks you can ignore.
ben@videotechuk_
Crimson Desert is the first game to lock down early disc copies, more publishers need to do this to prevent leaks, especially @RockstarGames Well done @CrimsonDesert_, hopefully this becomes a norm.

@EskilSteenberg @SebAaltonen Yes. the USB-C spec has support for Displayport - no Thunderbolt needed. The MacBook Neo supports 1 external screen at 4k 60fps.
English
@SebAaltonen Can you connect an external screen without Thunderbolt? That feels like a serious limitation.

2x bigger SSD and 2x more RAM at the same price. 256GB SSD + 8GB RAM are the bottlenecks, and we know that already from past experience.
Let's wait for benchmarks to see if A18 beats Core i5 1334U. I would assume Apple is faster, but enough to beat 2x bigger RAM/SSD?

This is the MacBook Neo's competition btw 😭

@fromsoftserve blame sony for not making it happen

@Vudak_ 100%. We're so lucky Bluepoint got to do both a Remaster and a Remake of Shadow of the Colossus. Perfect result. They actually did a remaster of Demon's Souls for PS4 Pro as well but PlayStation cancelled its release to focus on marketing the PS5 Remake instead.
English
I absolutely recommend people emulate the original on the rpcs3 emulator after. It’s super easy to setup and runs like butter. And then you can really appreciate the artistic differences with the designs and OST. Plus I’d love if the OG was playable on PS4 and PC natively one day
English
100% agree with this. Newcomers don’t have the OG as a reference and I honestly think the artistic changes don’t take away from it giving people an authentic Demon’s Souls gameplay experience at the end of the day. That’s what matters most to me.
Lance McDonald@manfightdragon
(Sorry if it upsets people but I still believe the Demon’s Souls Remake is the best way to play the game for a newcomer in 2026)

Wow a laggy, incoherent, jumbled recreation of training data from a game released in 2009 showing no new or interesting gameplay

@2_left_thumbs is the game in question Öoo? The game has zero words, and manages to explain its puzzles purely by gameplay. literally one of the best puzzle games ever made and you're shitting on the developer for no reason.

Developer: No AI has been used in the making of our game

@2_left_thumbs People from smaller markets are telling me they're very happy I'm not using AI for translations.

@real_EnVadeh Garbage collector overhead is a small price to pay in situations where memory safety is critical. Fil-C brings guaranteed memory safety to the already existing billions of lines of C code. A memory safe OS is already viable today with Fil-C; no other toolchain can do that!

@gaynwatch check the github, there's a new build with crash fixes. if you have any problems, feel free to DM

@AcesDust yo how'd u place @rainbowpikmin 's engine within ur switch's filesystem, can't exactly get it to work on my end?
English
@JoaoBapt @rainbowpikmin i have a homebrewed switch, so it was just:
- compile the repo into an nro file with switch devkitpro toolchain
- copy the file over and run it
English
@AcesDust @rainbowpikmin How did you run that on the Switch?

speaking as the artist who designed Young Liz for Bioshock Infinite, I love to see an article promising a bold new future where she could just look like someone’s half-assed cosplay instead

There's a future where you and your graphics card decide what a game looks like, not the developers. Read the full story: trib.al/gQsdOCx
