![]() You'll be able to use this to see which games work with various labels. But it's also been working with developers to ensure there's plenty of compatibility. Valve has created the Steam Deck Compatibility program to verify which games will and won't work with the console. The company has said that many games will run out of the box. Valve is keen to make sure that as many games as possible are playable on the Steam Deck. Valve said Steam Deck can be plugged into your TV, monitor, or "even your old CRT if you have the right cables.” The Stem Deck comes with USB-C ports that contain HDMI, Ethernet, and USB data, as well as Bluetooth. It's not required, however, and has been delayed for a while. Valve plans to sell a dock that you can use to prop up a Steam Deck to plug into external displays or TVs. Other features include chat, notifications, and the ability to stream games to Steam Deck directly from your PC via Valve’s Remote Play feature. It features cloud saves for the syncing of files between devices, and it has a suspend/resume feature to force the device into sleep mode. Valve says you can plug in a mouse, keyboard, and monitor - plus you can install PC software on it ( including Windows), browse the web, and use it to access other game stores. In fact, Steam Deck can be used as a full-fledged Linux computer by more advanced users. Steam Deck offers access to the Steam library and runs a version of Steam OS that's optimized for mobile gaming. Similar to the Switch, Steam Deck comes with two shoulder triggers on each side, and there are four back buttons (two on each side) for even more options. The front of the handheld machine also has ABXY buttons and a D-pad. Steam Deck has two thumbsticks and two Steam Controller-style trackpads beneath the thumbstick that can mimic the feeling of using a mouse. That also means Steam Deck supports AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution for upscaling similar to Nvidia's DLSS. It has a USB-C port, which offers external display support for up to two 4K monitors at 60Hz. The claim is up to eight hours of battery life, though in our experience and testing it's more like two to three depending on the game. Valve says the Steam Deck can charge and play at the same and will come with a 45-watt power supply. Other features include built-in mics, a gyroscope for motion controls, and a "40 watt-hour battery that provides several hours of playtime for most games". The GPU will apparently have access to up to 8GB of that shared memory. The Steam Deck boasts 16GB of unified LPDDR5 memory, with a total of 88GB/s of bandwidth. You can also expand the storage via microSD on any of the models. There are three different storage tiers available, though: 64GB eMMC storage, 256GB NVMe SSD storage, and 512GB of high-speed NVME SSD storage. In terms of power, every Steam Deck offers the same power 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and an AMD APU containing a quad-core Zen 2 CPU with eight threads and eight compute units’ worth of AMD RDNA 2 graphics. ![]() ![]() When your desktop/laptop restarts, you'll then be able to see the BIOS settings from where you can enable Virtualization. ![]() Select "UEFI Firmware settings" and lastly, click on "Restart now ".Click on " Troubleshoot" and then "Advanced options".In the "Recovery" tab, click on "Restart now" available in front of Advanced startup.

Carve’s controls, which treat your hands as your feet, take a bit of getting used to but, once you get the hang of them, they feel fantastic. You have several tracks and modes here and, while none of them are technically a race, there is a time trial mode encouraging you to find the fastest route down. Trade the wheel for a board with this ace take on winter sports in VR. ![]() Best Quest Racing Games: Other Carve Snowboarding Plus it’s still getting updates to this day, including a big new 4.0 launch recently. This has everything you’d expect – cockpit racing, multiplayer options, power-ups and even cross-platform play across different headsets. When it comes to kart racers, you have a few choices on Quest, but our pick is this fun take from developer MotionX.

A host of modes including competitive multiplayer and even campaign co-op ensure this one ticks all the boxes and there are extra points for the control style that simulates a real remote control, too. If you were to ask us what the single best Quest racing game was right now, we’d probably have to pick this serviceable Micro Machines clone, which offers fun diorama-sized VR races.

Still, that doesn’t mean they’re not worth playing. Or at least they are in the traditional sense – there’s only a handful of driving games on the standalone headset, and they’re mostly arcade-driven takes, with no simulators for the Gran Turismo and Forza fans out there. The Meta Quest (formerly known as the Oculus Quest) has a lot of shooters and sports games, but one genre that’s surprisingly lacking on the platform is racing titles. Get behind the wheel with our list of the best Quest racing games. ![]() The term “runaway thermal event” appears frequently in these reports, referring to a phenomenon where the battery enters an uncontrollable, self-heating state.Īnother frequently appearing term is “thermal containment bag,” an item that only became commonplace on airplanes in 2016 following a number of explosions of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphones. The flight was diverted and the aircraft was taken out of service due to the smoke in the cabin. The power bank was secured in a containment bag by airline personnel. “A passenger’s portable power bank began to smoke and burn inside of a purse that was placed under the seat. Yet some incidents result in flight disruptions, like a Southwest Airlines flight on August 26, 2022. The flight continued without further incident.” Flight crew personnel were notified and submerged the device in a Thermal Containment Bag with water. The device was reportedly not in use at the time it began to overheat. Regarding an American Airlines flight on August 17 last year, the agency reported, “A passenger's vape pen began overheating in the cabin during a flight to Philadelphia. Flight attendants were notified and secured the power bank in a Thermal Containment Bag,” according to the FAA’s report of that incident. “Prior to departure a passenger's lithium battery power bank started to overheat and smoke. Most of these incidents were caught early and resulted only in a short flight delay, such as the United Airlines flight on August 29, 2022. ![]() And for several dates last year, the FAA recorded more than one incident in a single day. In 2014, for example, the FAA reported only nine lithium battery incidents all year.Ĭompare that to last year, when nine lithium-battery incidents were reported in each of three months: May, July and August. As more personal devices are powered by lithium-ion batteries, the number of these incidents has risen sharply over the past decade. ![]() Libdvdnav:DVDOpenFileUDF:UDFFindFile /VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO failed Libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access The directory where you installed VLC and run "vlc -I qt" ![]() Warning: if you can't access the GUI anymore, open a command-line window, go to logger interface: Copyright ? 1996-2010 the VideoLAN team logger interface: VLC media player - 1.1.0 The Luggage NB: Right-click -> Properties on the relevant CD/DVD drive in 'My Computer' tells you the filesystem. Be nice if I could autoplay a DVD accidentally created using CDFS though, like WMP does.Įxcept for that, VLC is marvelously idiot-proof. I am actually quite ok with that, but I tell some friends VLC is the bees knees. I think this may be happening a lot.įor now, the only solutions I have is to play using 'Open folder' or to reburn the DVD as a UDF filesystem. I know DVD should be UDF file system, but in my ignorance I just copied some AUDIO_TS+VIDEO_TS files round and burnt them to a DVD without knowing to set the FS as UDF. I have seen quite a few DVDs showing these symptoms, and I think that is the reason. The reason as far as I can tell (and DVDOpenFileUDF is a bit of a giveaway) is that one of them is a UDF file system - plays fine on VLC, the other is CDFS and won't play on VLC. I now have a pair of DVDs, BOTH start up ok in WMP. The disc FS can be inspected using windows explorer perfectly ok. 'Open folder' works fine, but 'Open disc' gives that error. VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd://J:\'. ![]() Looking quite hard all over the web gave me no solution. ![]() ![]() Temperatures only a degree or two above the recommended temperatures can kill chicks within 15-30 minutes, depending on how high the temperature is and the stage of development of the chick embryo. Although it is not recommended, slightly lower temperatures will not kill the chick embryos, but can increase incubation times and produce weakened chicks. The same average egg temperature of 100 o F can be maintained (for the entire egg) if the higher temperature of 102 o F exists at the egg's uppermost point.ĭo not allow temperatures to exceed these recommendations, even for only a short period of time. Therefore, increasing the temperature at the top of the egg will compensate for the egg's cooler parts. The reason for different temperatures is that circulating air warms all points around the egg shell while still air temperatures are warmer at the top of the egg than at the bottom. The recommended temperature in this type incubator is 102 o F. The temperature in this "still-air" incubator is measured using a thermometer with the bulb positioned at the same level as the top of the incubating eggs. If the incubator used has a fan for air circulation, the temperature must be adjusted to 99-100 o F.Īn incubator without an air circulation system requires a higher temperature. ![]() The recommended temperature within an artificial incubator depends upon the type of incubator being used. The incubation temperature of naturally (nest) incubated eggs is controlled by the hen. Therefore, eggs of several different bird species can be incubated at the same time within the same incubator. This is the ideal temperature for incubating. Temperature Setting: You should set the temperature at 99 F for hatching quail eggs. And set the humidity to 65 to 70 percent on the 23rd day of incubating your chicks. Proper humidity inside the brooder is at least 45 to 50 percent. The eggs of almost all domestic bird species (and many wild species) can be incubated at the same incubation temperature. Humidity Setting: Set the humidity of the incubator properly. The incubation temperature requirements for most hatching eggs is surprisingly uniform. ![]() Overall, College Hoops 2K8 for Xbox 360 is a game that will evoke nostalgia for retro gaming enthusiasts. ![]() Additionally, the lack of depth in game modes may leave some players longing for more variety. The controls can be clunky and lack the fluidity and responsiveness that we expect from contemporary games. The graphics and gameplay mechanics feel dated, especially when compared to more modern basketball titles. ![]() ![]() That being said, College Hoops 2K8 does have its drawbacks. It's a realistic element that adds depth to the game and truly highlights the influence of a cheering crowd. The 6th Man Meter measures the current level of crowd enthusiasm, and by performing well and raising the excitement, you can gain advantages such as reduced fatigue for your team and a decrease in the opposing team's confidence. The energy and excitement of the fans can actually affect gameplay. The 6th Man Advantage is a feature that truly captures the essence of playing in front of a passionate crowd. Remember those spirited couch gaming sessions with buddies? This game brings back those memories. This adds a competitive element and allows you to showcase your skills against friends. In terms of multiplayer support, College Hoops 2K8 allows for up to four players to compete against each other. It's a great way to challenge yourself and track your progress while also paying homage to these beloved athletes. This mode allows players to test and improve their skills through passing, shooting, and defensive tests against former college basketball stars like Mike Conley Jr., Julian Wright, and J.J. One of the standout features of College Hoops 2K8 is the All-American Training Challenge. While it may not be the most polished or groundbreaking title, it still holds a certain charm that will resonate with retro gaming enthusiasts. Been playing a lot of dead space and Batman: Arkham Asylum , being older titles will see what happens when I start playing newer stuff.College Hoops 2K8 for Xbox 360 offers a nostalgic experience for fans of classic basketball games. For the most part frame rate is good but when the system has to ramp up the audio seems to chug. I'm having similar issues with the titles I've played so far. I'm thinking about upgrading my PC motherboard to support an i9 chipset just to get emulators to work better. Not to mention some older but better Madden titles as well as NFL 2K5. I can get gameplay to work at decent frame rates with a i5-7600K, which I am very happy with, but I need audio to get fully emersed into college sports games like NCAA 14 Revamped, College Hoops 2K8 and NCAA Basketball 2010. I use RPCS3 mostly for older sports titles and I'm having one hell of a time getting audio to work. Audio seems to be something everyone struggles with along with constant frame rates. Lower end CPUs have different issues with different types of games. I'm sure you are running a high end CPU with a good motherboard, so you should have no issues. My small bit of time with it, I've notice that its picky on the game you play.Ĭompatibility list helps but it all depends on the CPU you are running since these emulators are so CPU intensive. I'm new to emulation, Wondering what the best games are to play with RPCS3. Hella confused as I'm a noob with all this just got a pc recently. I I'm having some issues as the versions of games I have are different then what's compatible for example:Ĭompatibility list:BLES01040, BLES01041 ,BLUS30624Īs far as I can tell my copy plays fine but I don't think I get the game updates that the copy's in the compatibility list has. Much less which of the good games will work well in RPCS3. I wish I could give more specific game recommendations, but I'm not that into PS3 games, so I don't know what the good ones are. And even the games that are designated as playable aren't always guaranteed to work perfectly without any hiccups. Both PS3 and Xbox 360 emulation are in the very early stages, so you need a pretty strong computer for it to work well. The results you get will depend on how powerful your computer is though. In theory any game designated as "playable" should be just that - playable. I'd recommend taking a look through the RPCS3 compatibility list: ![]() Microsoft's need to make decisions for you in Windows 11 is most evident in its strictly-enforced hardware requirements. The Start menu will be on top but align to the left side of the screen.Īlso, if you use the Start11 Start menu replacement, there's an option that allows you to align your taskbar to the top and, unlike the registry hack method, it aligns the menus with the taskbar.įix: If you still want the taskbar on top, even with those caveats, see our article on how to move the Windows 11 taskbar to the top. Most notably, while the taskbar will sit on the top of the screen if you perform this tweak, notifications, the calendar and volume menu will still be in the lower-right corner. However, there's a registry hack that, as of this writing, will allow you to position your taskbar at the top of the screen, with a few caveats. Windows 11 does not provide any officially-supported way to move the taskbar. The software giant wants you to have your taskbar at the bottom of the screen and, if you want it on the top or side (as you were able to in previous Windows versions, that's just too bad. ![]() With Windows 11's UI, Microsoft is like an arrogant chef who, after cooking your dinner, instructs the waiter to remove all the salt and pepper shakers from the table because they don't want you changing the flavor of their dish. How to replace the Start menu in Windows 11. Better still, in Windows 10, you can scroll down an alphabetical list of all your apps right away, but in Windows 11, you have to hit the "All Apps" button to get there.įix: Fortunately, there are three good Start menu alternatives. The Windows 10 Start menu measured 648 x 639 and held 30 icons. Excluding the height of the taskbar, which is about the same, the Windows 11 Start menu measured 645 x 740 and housed 18 pinned apps and four "recommended" shortcuts, a total of 22 icons (with room for 2 more, a total of 24). I compared the size of the Start Menu on a 1920 x 1080 display on both operating systems. Even worse, Windows 11 makes you click a second time to see a list of all your apps. ![]() However, in Windows 11, the Start menu is designed to be showy rather than functional, sitting in the middle of the display by default and taking up more screen real estate for fewer icons than in Windows 10. How about some humility, Microsoft? What we want out of Start menu is to give us quick access to all of our programs and then get out of the way.
