Yo. I actually was reading about changes too recently. I will log in in the next week or so as I still have an account with a load of cartel coins it seems. Last time I logged in I was not leader but pretty sure we still had the guild.

Decided to login in to SWTOR today. Did the guild get disbanded?

Also, what's up?

After a period of inactivity leadership gets transferred to any active member left. I guess when there are no active members left it gets disbanded. I think last time I checked Nocry had ownership? I'm trying to remember what the situation was last time I logged in and caught up on the story expansions, but it's been awhile.

I've simplified a lot since first doing this. Got rid of vrperfkit since my current rig can handle better fidelity. I'm not supersampling with OTT as setting max resolution via Oculus seems to work fine. The biggest things to do are to take the slider all the way to the right in the resolution of the device and go to Oculus Debug Tool and raise the encode bitrate to 480+. I've also upgraded to the Quest Pro!

I made some additional slight changes. It was discovered that changing the encode resolution width to anything other than the render resolution width can create shimmering, so keeping it the same is better. I also updated my PC with a new CPU, RAM, etc. so tweaking some settings to reflect that.

I'm using the default 1.0x resolution at 90hz (3712x1872) and changed the encode resolution width to match (3712). I'm also experimenting with upping the refresh rate to 120hz (mostly for Pop One), but I haven't had enough testing to see if I'm keeping that setting).

Long awaited update! For my 2019 build I was able to boot by messing with voltage settings in the bios, but I never could get it completely stable - especially when I upgraded my GPU to a 3080 in 2020. Finally now in 2022 I've upgraded my CPU, motherboard, and RAM again. I also got a new case, PSU, and cooler so...basically a new rig.

2022 System:

Motherboard: MSI Pro z690-a DDR4
CPU: Intel 13600k
Cooler: ID Cooling Frostflow x240 (liquid cooler)
GPU: Zotac 3800 Trinity
RAM: Teamforce 16x2 3200mhz DDR4
Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow
PSU: MSI MPG A850 GF Gaming
Drives: 500GB m.2, 250GB and 1TB SSD, 4TB HDD
PCIe: Anker USB 3.0 expansion card, OKN Wifi 6E AX5400

I do a lot more work on my PC now, and this rig is great at both gaming and as a workstation!

My stability started to nosedive, so I bit the bullet and got a new CPU and motherboard. Intel 13600k paired with MSI Pro z690-a DDR4 motherboard. No power issues! No crashes! And runs like a dream! https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/57068072

I slapped a cheap liquid cooler on it (ID-Cooling Frostflow x240) and it keeps it nice and cool! The only tweak I had to do was changing MSI's CPU Lite Load setting from 12 to 5 as MSI is giving the wrong voltages for 13th gen, making them too hot.

I'm pretty sure my original issue was just a faulty board (or CPU).
