Can Steam __FULL__ Download In Sleep Mode

Anyone have any idea if Steam will keep these downloads going while the computer's put onto Sleep-mode? cause i don't wanna have this running while i'm out to college (to save power) and have a full on Bright-as-fuck Screen blasting the room during night and that running Motor sound, (When i'm sleeping.)

**bleep** it...I replied but the website required me to log in and killed my original comment.

Here's the gist of my experience with both my and my girlfriend's quest 2 headsets.

It's a 50/50 coin toss on if the headset will go to sleep when taking it off. I have the sleep period set to max.

I'll often lift the headset up onto my forehead to review my PC monitor or engage in the real world. Sometimes, the headset stays active and I can slide it back down to continue playing.

Other times, it goes to sleep immediately. The worst part, is that when it goes to sleep and I have to re-wake it, the guardian setting will be lost, requiring me to set up the room once again.

It's pretty irritating and I wish I could just have an option to "leave screen on" since I always turn the device off manually when I'm finished playing. >_

Well, if it's detecting it's not actively being worn, I think it enters sleep mode to conserve power. I think the settings you guys are looking at affect how long of inactivity while being worn you have before it enters sleep mode. AKA, settings that will allow you to watch a movie or TV in VR without touching the controllers and it not shutting off on you.

Besides, the Quest 1 did the same thing last year. Yeah, it's annoying when trying ti input a complicated password you keep in a text file (that's on a removable flash drive) such as my current wifi pre-shared key. But at the same time, I find it more annoying when I take off the Quest and it keeps exiting sleep mode 2 or 3 times while I'm putting the lens cover in place.

I was thinking of using Batocera on my arcade cabinet. But one feature I have on my current setup is system sleep. Actually both features would be nice, right now, ES has a dim option, but it would be handy if after the specified interval it would put the PC to sleep, and any keypress would wake it up. This would would probably only work for x86 builds as I don't think ARM systems even have a sleep.

Sleep mode (or suspend to RAM) is a low power mode for electronic devices such as computers, televisions, and remote controlled devices. These modes save significantly on electrical consumption compared to leaving a device fully on and, upon resume, allow the user to avoid having to reissue instructions or to wait for a machine to boot. Many devices signify this power mode with a pulsed or red colored LED power light.

In computers, entering a sleep state is roughly equivalent to "pausing" the state of the machine. When restored, the operation continues from the same point, having the same applications and files open.

Sleep mode has gone by various names, including Stand By, Suspend and Suspend to RAM. Machine state is held in RAM and, when placed in sleep mode, the computer cuts power to unneeded subsystems and places the RAM into a minimum power state, just sufficient to retain its data. Because of the large power saving, most laptops automatically enter this mode when the computer is running on batteries and the lid is closed. If undesired, the behavior can be altered in the operating system settings of the computer.

A computer must consume some energy while sleeping in order to power the RAM and to be able to respond to a wake-up event. A sleeping PC is on standby power, and this is covered by regulations in many countries, for example in the United States limiting such power under the One Watt Initiative, from 2010. In addition to a wake-up press of the power button, PCs can also respond to other wake cues, such as from keyboard, mouse, incoming telephone call on a modem, or local area network signal.

Hibernation, also called Suspend to Disk on Linux, saves all computer operational data on the fixed disk before turning the computer off completely. On switching the computer back on, the computer is restored to its state prior to hibernation, with all programs and files open, and unsaved data intact. In contrast with standby mode, hibernation mode saves the computer's state on the hard disk, which requires no power to maintain, whereas standby mode saves the computer's state in RAM, which requires a small amount of power to maintain.

Sleep mode and hibernation can be combined: the contents of RAM are first copied to non-volatile storage like for regular hibernation, but then, instead of powering down, the computer enters sleep mode. This approach combines the benefits of sleep mode and hibernation: The machine can resume instantaneously, but it can also be powered down completely (e.g. due to loss of power) without loss of data, because it is already effectively in a state of hibernation. This mode is called "hybrid sleep" in Microsoft Windows other than Windows XP.

A hybrid mode is supported by some portable Apple Macintosh computers,[1] compatible hardware running Windows Vista or newer, and Linux distributions running kernel 3.6 or newer.[citation needed]

ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is the current standard for power management, superseding APM (Advanced Power Management) and providing the backbone for sleep and hibernation on modern computers. Sleep mode corresponds to ACPI mode S3. When a non-ACPI device is plugged in, Windows will sometimes disable stand-by functionality for the whole operating system. Without ACPI functionality, as seen on older hardware, sleep mode is usually restricted to turning off the monitor and spinning down the hard drive.

Microsoft Windows 2000 and later support sleep at the operating system level (ACPI S3 state) without special drivers from the hardware manufacturer, except of video adapters. Windows Vista's Hybrid sleep feature saves the contents of volatile memory to hard disk before entering sleep mode. If power to memory is lost, it will use the hard disk to wake up. The user has the option of hibernating directly if they wish. On PCs that enable Modern Standby, Hybrid sleep feature is unavailable.

In older versions prior to Windows Vista, sleep mode was under-used in business environments as it was difficult to enable organization-wide without resorting to third-party software.[2] As a result, these earlier versions of Windows were criticized for wasting energy.[3]

Sleep on Macs running macOS consists of the traditional sleep, Safe Sleep, and Power Nap. In System Preferences, Safe Sleep[7] is referred to as sleep. Since Safe Sleep also allowed state to be restored in an event of a power outage, unlike other operating systems, hibernate was never offered as an option.

In 2005, some Macs running Mac OS X v10.4 began to support Safe Sleep. The feature saves the contents of volatile memory to the system hard disk each time the Mac enters Sleep mode. The Mac can instantaneously wake from sleep mode if power to the RAM has not been lost. However, if the power supply was interrupted, such as when removing batteries without an AC power connection, the Mac would wake from Safe Sleep instead, restoring memory contents from the hard drive.[8]

In 2012, Apple introduced Power Nap with OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) and select Mac models.[10] Power Nap allows the Mac to perform tasks silently, such as iCloud syncing and Spotlight indexing. Only low energy tasks are performed when on battery power, while higher energy tasks are performed with AC power.[11]

It is so annoying, as we can not continue flights by loading saved *.FLT files, the Sim crashes as well after waking up PC from hybernate or sleep mode. So right now it is not possible in no way to save and continue a flight some time later, allways CTDs. Anyone with same issue?

I imagine you would also encounter issues with world time, and possibly real weather/flights/other aircraft as well. Your flight would say one time, and the world would be in another time. It is hard for me to imagine why you would want to allow your PC to sleep or hibernate mid-flight.

You may be better off pausing the game, (PAUSE/BREAK key, not ESC) then allowing the PC to sleep, as I suspect using the ESC key does not stop the aircraft from moving. The game might still crash due to the timing problems and losing sync with real world weather, other aircraft and live flights (if you have those enabled).

It appears, from my experimentation, anecdotally and without empirical evidence, that CTDs only happen to me if I load MSFS after waking the PC up from sleep. If it is after a fresh boot or a restart, there are no CTDs I can remember. Noticed this randomly and have been observing it for over 1.5 months now. Wonder if anyone has experienced the same.

hello folks,

so i had this problem for a very long time now

when playing a game (steam) and being afk for a while, the pc (Laptop) goes to sleep, all black screen etc.

after returning the sound in the game is gone.

other sounds like videos and the sound test function still works. but no sound in the game.

the only thing that helps is quitting and restarting the game.

That should be tied into the game(s) in question utilizing specific outdated sound software, or utilizing their sound software in a clumsy manner. *As I recall* the process: PCs won't shut down if there's an active audio context connection; Depending on how a game and its associated sound software is configured, this can result in a game being set up to effectively lock out sleep mode (due to the resources remaining in use), being set to load in and out of sleep mode without issue, or being set to load into sleep mode but then fail to reattach to the associated hardware resources once returning from Sleep Mode. In that last case, given how the context'd need to be reeactivated, and that a context is enabled specific to a given game, this results in the game in question needing to be reloaded to reactivate the associated sound. [If I'm misrecollecting anything, and anyone happens to notice, do please note corrections.] 17dc91bb1f
