Say ''hello'' to me *crying*
My dear pc I've spent 3000€ on is finally back in business.
My last screenshots from sso are from May 10th. This is from 04.092022 1.45
My pc hasnt worked before today since May 10th 2022. One day it turned off (and other things happened) and it showed blank when turned on). I sent it off for repair. It would've cost me 1124€ + shipping 60€ for them to fix it. So I only paid the 60€ and I was told my graphics card needs replacing.
So I bought a new rtx 3070 ti (I had a regular rtx 3070) and a new power supply (760W) because the 550W provided with the old pc didn't suffice for the lenovo custom-made rtx 3070.
And so I changed the parts. Carefully. And tested it blind. PC turned on. Success...
Except it wasn't. I plugged in to my monitor. And blank. Nothing. No ROG start-up screen that says ''press del or f12 to enter bios''. Nothing.
Suffice to say I gave up. I let it go. I did everything right. I had dissected my pc and put it back together around 4 times at that time. I knew what I was doing. Everything was plugged in correctly.
This was June 19th 2022.
Fast-forward to now.
I'm playing SSO on my laptop. Bummed I can't use my 32 inch monitor, my proper pc with Reshade looking like this picture, while I'm going about my business and quests and races. Not using my brand-new speakers that cost me another 150€.
So I decide to plug in my old pc. My new pc doesn't work... So the old one does, right?
It didn't. Same problem. Blank. Nothing.
So I decide to plug it in my tv. I see that I can't use the HDMI port. It doesn't show anything. Lucky I'm me, I have another 3 HDMI cables on hand. So I pick the closest one and plug it in. It works. It shows up on my TV menu. And it shows the pc booting up.
The pc didn't work of course, I took the hard drive from it which I'm using for my windows 11 on this computer. But it shows something. So I plug in my new PC.
And it works. It boots up. It takes me to the Windows sign in screen with my dear Shenhe as my background picture. And I go in. And it's black. I restart, it installs some windows updates. And after restart it logs me in. I'm in. I see my PC.
Then my case tells me it doesn't detect my graphics card. My device manager says Microsoft Basic Display Adapter on my video adapter space. I google. I find an article that says this is normal on new graphics cards without updated drivers. Geforce Experience has drivers to install. It wouldn't install new drivers if it didn't recognize the graphics card, right?
And lo and behold. I log on to SSO. And I get my sweet sweet Reshade presets. I restart the pc. I plug in my monitor. And this is working. I'm sitting on my living room floor, writing this, because I don't dare get up and take my setup to my office space in case this stops working. I'll do it after and inform you if it works.

So I made this today, in my quest to find the perfect way to train horses, but not having to train for 3 hrs every day just to do it in 3 days.
So this is my training route that takes a little less than an hour (around 50 minutes, I timed it), but let's say an hour of playing, if you don't get distracted, nor do many mistakes (which I did even when I timed it).
You can start anywhere you want, because at least I'm mostly using trailer to travel the distances, only differences being Starshine Ranch -> Firgrove, Steve's -> Baroness's racetrack (from where I take a trailer to the Manor, not necessary, but saves some time), Manor to Yelena and the Goldspur races.
You can also do both Pauline's tracks or both Minka's tracks. Up to you, they take around the same amount of time and give the same amount of xp.
Do with this information what you will.

Trying to get by without photomode.
If you don't know what that means, there's a bug causing Reshade 3D effects not to work in photomode... I miss the zoom and being able to set the scenes however I want.

Well, that PC had a motherboard problem, so I bought a new motherboard and build it anew. Now there's a windows 10 problem that I'm not gonna fix rn.
So before I do that, I don't know/remember all the effects I used. But there's like 8-9 effects in total. adof, mxao, cinematic tools or smthng and depthhaze being the main effects...
I'll get back to you once I get a clean installation of Windows and hopefully fix the problem...

I bought a new PC. I didn't know playing SSO with Reshade could be such a smooth experience. No flickering of 3D effects, no players having an effect on it, no FPS loss (playing @120FPS). tHIS IS AMAZING
Nvidia Geforce RTX 3070 8Gb and AMD Ryzen 7 3800X for the win. I don't regret spending money on this at all.
I also bought an extra case (this is a pre-built), and I was afraid of dismantling everything and building it back. But then I encountered booting problems and pretty much dismantled the whole thing and put it back together and it fixed my problem so I'm not so afraid anymore.
Have a good one-

Hello, hello
Excuse me for being quiet for so long, I am in fact somewhat active on my Instagram...
But anyway, I got accepted to study environmental engineering!!
I'm gonna be an engineer!!
It was a hard road, but I nailed my test and was accepted straight away (I mean I was notified right away when the results were published). Now I'm possibly moving to a new apartment, too.
So good job me.
Have these dino valley photos to celebrate this
