Starfield Modding is Quite Difficult for Now, Starfield Community Patch Founder Says

Despite the release of tons of mods to date, Starfield modding is considered to be quite difficult as the game's code is hard to work with, in addition to the current absence of support and official modding tools. At least, that's what one of the founders of the Starfield Community Patch group, Timothy "Halgari" Baldridge, said in a recent interview with Eurogamer. Last month, the group released its first unofficial community patch for Bethesda's game, addressing issues that haven't been fixed by Bethesda. According to the modder, the only reason that the team can successfully mod and fix many of […]

Starfield New Mods Vastly Improve NPCs’ Eyes, Architectural Textures

A couple of new Starfield mods that are available for download introduce significant visual improvements for NPC and architectural textures. Given how NPC generally don't look great in Bethesda's latest open-world role-playing game, the Retina-Photorealistic Eyes Overhaul is extremely welcome, as it replaces the game's eyes with real-life, accurate photorealistic eyes that significantly improve how NPCs look. The new textures are available in multiple resolutions, and they look amazing even in their performance version, which is better suited for 1080p resolution. Starfield environmental textures also leave something to be desired, and it is something that multiple modders tried to fix […]

YouTube is Getting a Bunch of Generative AI Features to Make the Experience More Intuitive

YouTube is doing something different in the form of testing new generative AI features that should make the platform a lot more intuitive. So far, my only idea about using the platform is to look up obscure clips from old movies or perhaps check out some new music videos, but Google thinks there is more to the platform than just these things, and having generative AI features is always a good thing. YouTube's new generative AI features should improve the user experience Google has announced that it is currently testing new generative AI experiments for YouTube. The new features include […]

Dimensity 9300 Is 11.7 Percent Faster Than Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in 3DMark Wild Life Extreme At The Same Power Usage; Overwhelms A17 Pro...

The Dimensity 9300 shares a unique CPU cluster compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Apple’s A17 Pro, and it appears that MediaTek’s gamble in not using any efficiency cores for its flagship SoC has paid off as its latest chip outperforms the top two players in the latest 3DMark Wild Life Extreme test. However, as one would expect, there is a noticeable power consumption spike as a result of using just Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 for the Dimensity 9300 this year. Dimensity 9300 operates at a 19.8 percent higher power consumption than the A17 Pro but obliterates Apple’s flagship iPhone […]

Epic Games Attorney Claims Google Destroyed the Evidence in Fortnite Case

Epic and Google are finally seeing each other in court this week, and things have actually taken a rather interesting turn. For starters, Gary Bornstein, who is representing Epic Games in this case, claims that the search engine giant has destroyed evidence, which is a bold claim, to say the least. Google's fight with Epic Games continues as more accusations are thrown at the search engine giant Bornstein made the following statement, “All we know is whatever is in the destroyed chats, as bad as the documents are, is worse. Or at least it was worse, before they were destroyed." […]
