As you might have noticed, our previous moderator /u/TooEarlyForMe closed the sub during the protest and subsequently deleted his account. This left this sub unmoderated and soon banned.

Today, reddit has added me as moderator so we can open up the sub again. I hope that we can revive /r/cloudygamer and return it to its former glory - a place to discuss all things around cloud gaming.

For now, I don't see the need to change anything about how things were before. Should the sub get subjected to a lot of spam, I will soon start searching for additional moderators that want to help keep the sub clean. Hopefully, a well setup AutoModerator can keep most of the spam in check though. If you do see any spam, please use the report button. Thanks!

Does anyone have any experience with antstream? I was looking to get back into retro games, and this seemed like it might be a viable option?

Parsec error -6023 (Sometimes -11004 too)

0 Upvotes

I just moved and changed Wi-Fi, it's the same provider but, of course, the IP is different. Previously, I had zero issues with using Parsec, we logged in the first time and it worked like a charm. However, now, it doesnt work. I've opened the UPNP from the network site, given ports access and everything the site reccomends. I'm on Windows, thanks for helping in advance.

I have a Thinkpad with Intel Core Ultra 258v, and in moonlight I have 4:4:4 color enabled, but when I connect from my mac I get a message saying "your pc doesn't support 4:4:4 encode", and core ultra integrated graphics should support it.

A little help here please...?

0 Upvotes

Hey ˚.⋆꒰১ ໒꒱⋆.˚!! I feel terrible about this... but I genuinely cannot afford Baldur's Gate 3. I'm thinking of downloading It from Anker Game's, but I know that there's no way In hell that It will be able to run at all on my Lenovo ThinkPad... Is there any Cloud Gaming sites that I will be able to use...? I've thought about Shadow PC but I'm terrified of getting In trouble for getting caught pirating a game (⇀‸↼‶)! And If I do try, is it guaranteed to work? I'd really appreciate any help whatsoever, Thankyou so much ♡!

I built a multi-user Moonlight streaming tool for Windows — Avalon v1.0

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a project called Avalon, and I recently released v1.0. Figured some people here might be interested.

The idea is pretty simple: what if you could let multiple people use the same Windows gaming PC at the same time, without setting up a separate VM for each person?

If you've used Sunshine and Moonlight, you probably know that they're great for game streaming, but normally you're still sharing the same desktop.

Avalon takes a different approach. It creates separate Windows sessions on the same host, each with its own virtual display, keyboard/mouse input, audio, and Moonlight connection.

There's also a web UI where you can create instances, manage sessions, configure displays, and pair Moonlight clients.

I know Duo already exists and tackles a similar problem. I'm not claiming Avalon is better — I just wanted to build my own implementation and see how far I could take it, especially when it comes to session management and the web interface.

I finally recorded a proper demo of it running.

My test setup:

Intel i5-12490F

RTX 4060 Ti

32GB RAM

Windows 11

In the video, I go through creating instances, pairing Moonlight clients, running two independent sessions, and reconnecting multiple clients.

Everything was recorded on the host PC itself, including the Moonlight clients and OBS, so it's more of a functionality demo than a proper network latency benchmark.

A few limitations worth mentioning:

Windows 10/11 x64 only, no Home edition support.

Gamepad support and HDR aren't implemented yet.

Concurrent streaming is limited by hardware resources and encoder capabilities.

It's still early, and there's definitely room for improvement. I'm continuing to work on compatibility and stability.

GitHub: https://github.com/AvalonStream/AvalonStream

Website: https://avalons.cc

Demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EX0ZoGwiWts

I'd really like to hear what you guys think, especially if you've used Duo, Sunshine, or a VM-based multi-user setup before.

What features or improvements would make something like this useful for your setup?

Feedback and criticism are both welcome! :)

Best Cloud for Android games?

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone, as title says, what's the best app to cloud stream mobile games directly on phone , without massive downloads? I'm talking about games like mobile legends or genshin impact. I already tried cloud moon but the latency is not really great, any other recommendations? Thanks in advance

Shadow PC is actually legitimately trash.

6 Upvotes

So I thought I was lucky, I guess. I ignored all the naysayers on here, thinking "surely, *I* won't get screwed over. They must just be angry and exaggerating!"

Well, nope. Turns out this is legitimately one of the shittiest services, who doesn't care about their customers at all.

I feel like with every customer, they just set a timer for when they feel like refusing service without explanation.

I've tried connecting two days in a row now, and I have waited for over an hour with a 0 queue, multiple times each day.

There is no issue with the data center I'm tied to, and support has absolutely no answers.

If you are thinking about getting it, please please do not waste your money. You might have a few good months if you're lucky, but then they will decide that it's your time, and suddenly you won't be able to use a service you're paying over 50 bucks a month for.

Absolutely inexcusable for a paid service to treat their customers this way.

ParsecWebTurn infographic!

0 Upvotes

A lot of people have been asking what the differences are between the official Parsec client and my ParsecWebTurn solution.

So I put together a little infographic (with some help from AI 😄) to highlight the key differences, features, and advantages of each approach.

And if you look closely, you might also spot a little sneak peek at something new I've been working on... 👀🚀

🔗 https://github.com/vampywiz17/ParsecWebTurn

Just a quick disclaimer: This is a personal, independent project with no affiliation to or involvement from Parsec. I originally started developing it for my own use, but I'm really happy to see that others are finding it useful too! 😊

Questions regarding Remote Gaming

3 Upvotes

Last year, I took a trip to California from the East Coast and tried to remotely play games from my home PC using my phone. I had Apollo and Sunshine set up on my PC, but the experience was basically unusable.
I was getting close to 2 seconds of input delay, constant lag, and frequent disconnects. It felt like everything was happening several seconds after I pressed a button.
I’m planning another trip and would really like to figure out what went wrong before then. I’ve seen people using things like Tailscale, UniFi Teleport, or other VPN/network setups to remotely connect back to their home network, even from hotel Wi-Fi.
Does anyone know what could have caused that much latency and instability, and what setup would be best to prevent it? Ideally, I’d also like something I can test from home before the trip so I know it actually works.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Duo Manager Epic Games Launcher

1 Upvotes

Hello!
We wanted to play a game called remnant from the ashes,
but it requires us too have two steam acounts open at the same time (we can do this thanks to Duo Manager Process Patching i have supporter version so we even managed to open 3 steam games at the same time with their corresponding accounts)
But we also need to have two Epic Games open at the same time because the game for some reason NEEDS to have Epic Games Installed and running with an active acount (even if you dont own the game in epic) because the multiplayer runs through Epic Games Online Services , EpicGamesWeB Services or Something i dont really understand well,
if i login in Epic the host PC, the client session also logs in with my account even if the program isnt running there, when the client session opens it will be in the host account and when changing to the client Epic acount it also changes on the Host pc making it impossible to run two of the same program with different acounts at the same time, is there any way to fix or workaround this? Help would be greatly apreciated! the worst part is that we need to run 3 games at the same time...

Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 - Not working.

1 Upvotes

It just crashes immediately when clicking on an app..

I've tried the official release on google play, artemis, and the chinese version. As soon as i click "desktop", it just crashes and closes app.

No hdr on, i've tried all codecs

**EDIT:** I found the cause, the keyboard/case that comes with the Yoga tablet, it causes an issue with moonlight it self and is the sole reason behind the crash. I am able to reproduce it with it connected, and when i remove the keyboard, it runs. While running, on reattaching the keyboard, it immediately crashes. Repeatable. - ***I have reported on GitHub.***

**EDIT 2:** For anyone wanting a fix, you can do it your self by cloning the repo and replacing the following line "```if (deviceKeyCode != KeyEvent.KEYCODE_UNKNOWN) {```" with "```if (deviceKeyCode != KeyEvent.KEYCODE_UNKNOWN && deviceKeyCode <= maxKeyCode) {```" In app/src/main/java/com/limelight/binding/input/KeyboardTranslator.java, inside KeyboardMapping.
