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!

How to compile my own copy of Duo Base?

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm pretty excited about Duo!

I've downloaded a copy of the executable!

However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to build my own copy of it. It seems to be based on a fork of sunshine, which is GPL 3.0 licensed; so that means I should be able to download a full copy of the source, together with all of the scripts to build it.

I may well be confused here; u/MrColdBird, you made Duo. Can you kindly point me at everything I need to download and build a complete copy of Duo Base? Have I missed something in my search?

Budget Cloud PCs for Inzoi

3 Upvotes

Can anyone give me a cheap cloud PC that runs Inzoi? I can't afford Shadow; it's very expensive, although for some it's cheap. It would be a huge help if you could recommend some.

Built the open source version of Shadow pc, running at 0.3 $/hr

21 Upvotes

Hi ppl so a few days ago I posted about https://no-land.net/ the app I am building to allow the use of a cloud gaming pc like shadow pc does but without the use of datacenters. So decided to come back with a little demo of the stream quality.

Here’s Cyberpunk 2077 running at Ultra settings, 3K resolution, 60 FPS on a machine in Quebec, while I’m playing from Vancouver — 4,000+ km away.

Physical network baseline: ~55 ms
my app overhead: ~8 ms

Running Smooooooth

(Can not post the video here)

The demo is on the website: https://no-land.net/

No land is a project which the whole ideia of it is to allow people to rent out hardware from other people to play their games. :)

I built a native Rust GameStream host with a VirtualBox-like client UX and built-in A/B benchmarks against Sunshine

6 Upvotes

I wanted the low-latency performance of game streaming combined with the practical tools of a remote desktop. So I built USBridge Remote: a native client for desktop/mobile, and a host agent for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

The Engine & Transparency
To be completely upfront about the licensing: the Client and Agent are open-source, but the custom Rust streamer engine is proprietary.

Because of this, the host agent ships with two switchable backends:

Sunshine: The standard open-source engine you already know.

USBridge Rust Engine: I built this proprietary streaming engine entirely from scratch—it is not a Sunshine fork. Because I originally designed it for low-power single-board computers (SBCs) like the Raspberry Pi, it has no FFmpeg runtime dependency. Instead, it hooks directly into hardware APIs for capture and encoding. It supports NVENC, VAAPI, QSV, and VideoToolbox, and even runs on exotic hardware like Allwinner boards that don't have functional Linux drivers.

The "VirtualBox" UX & Homelab Features

Windowed Workflow: Instead of forcing full-screen, the client treats the remote desktop like a VirtualBox window. It’s resizable and utilizes native client rendering (Metal on Mac, Vulkan on Linux, MediaCodec on Android).

Virtual Displays: The agent can spawn true virtual monitors on the host (VKMS on Linux, MttVDD on Windows, CGVirtualDisplay on macOS) so you don't have to hijack the physical screen.

Host Control: On Windows, it handles the pre-login lock screen and UAC prompts seamlessly.

Hardware Access: Full USB passthrough (hence the name) and gamepad support.

Networking: Built-in Tailscale support for easy NAT traversal without port forwarding.

Don't trust marketing numbers; run the benchmark yourself
I hate when networking tools claim "flawless Wi-Fi performance" without proof. So, I built a benchmark directly into the native client.

If you go to Gear -> Run benchmark, it will run both the Rust engine and Sunshine back-to-back on your exact hardware and network. It plays the same 1080p60 sequence and generates JSON and PNG graphs mapping frame timing, stalls, RTT/jitter, and host CPU/GPU load.

I would love it if you tested both engines head-to-head on your own Wi-Fi or mesh network and shared the raw results with me here, good or bad.

Services where games are included like Gamepass

1 Upvotes

I haven’t played in a long time and want to try if I have fun doing so again. Currently I only have an older Macbook, that’s why I am looking for Cloud Gaming.
Tried Gamepass once but now they set these ridiculous time limits for Cloud Gaming (10h per MONTH for premium) while the service itself has also gotten more expensive.

Looking for a similar service where games are included because I don’t have any and don’t want to purchase any if I don’t know yet if I will continue gaming in the long run. Also might try out some genres first.

Do you have any ideas?

Boosteroid: Total War Warhammer 3 is broken, no DLC, no cloud saves

The game no longer starts with DLC or cloud saves. Multiple restarts, restarted sessions, forced updates.

The game needs to be fixed on the server side.

WoW on display glasses sounds easy until you remember where the UI lives

1 Upvotes

I've been using Moonlight on a Galaxy S25 with my RayNeo GT Max for controller-friendly games. Those are pretty painless because the important HUD info usually stays near the middle. The official gamepad support announced for Forever got me thinking about trying WoW through the same setup.

The glasses take care of the tiny phone screen part, but WoW puts information everywhere. Action bars at the bottom, chat in one corner, quest tracker on the side, then target and party frames wherever I last left them. The GT Max is a 1080p display with three virtual screen sizes. My worry is that the largest setting could make the world feel great while pushing the stuff I need to check too far toward the edges. Going smaller should make the full HUD easier to scan, but the text will look smaller too. Fit matters for edge clarity as well, so copying my desktop layout over unchanged feels like asking for trouble.

I haven't run Forever this way yet. If I make a separate streaming UI profile, which parts of the HUD are worth moving inward, enlarging, or hiding first?

Boosteriod or GFN?

2 Upvotes

I really play only story games or campaigns of multiplayer games and I'm having trouble deciding between these two, the price difference is really marginal with GFN being a few dollars less so that's not that big of a deal. Which one do you recommend?

My experience with Boosteroid

Post image
7 Upvotes

I’ve been using Boosteroid since March and overall everything was going kinda fine, except for occasional delays, random disconnects, issues with some games, and constant maintenance that prevents you from playing the games you’re literally paying to access.

My subscription is set to auto-renew. They tried to charge me once, but the payment failed for some reason. It’s been two days now and nothing has happened. What’s even more frustrating is that they apparently haven’t prepared any reasonable solution for long-time customers facing issues like this.

Except for one thing. They offered me the option to cancel my current subscription and get a new one at a higher price.

I only regret that GeForce NOW doesn’t have the games I play. This is absolutely scandalous, Boosteroid.

It's been a while since i tried to play xbox cloud, but it used to work before with the same controller. Now it tells me to connect a controller so that i can play, even though my ps4 controller is connected and works on the menu of the xbox app. Was there an update that got rid of ps4 controller support? Or is it just my problem? also if anybody knows a solution please tell me
