There are random crashes/freezes for some users when using directx12
To Do • Priority: Low • Fix: None

Some players experience random crashes and freezes when running shapez 2 with DirectX 12. The issue occurs intermittently during normal gameplay after setting the graphics API to DirectX 12. Log analysis reveals repeated errors related to failed memory address access. Switching away from DirectX 12 reportedly prevents the crashes. The issue has been reported on a semi-regular basis by multiple players.

One time crash when pausing with 'P' and minimizing game
Done • Priority: Medium • Fix: None • Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

A player experienced a one-time crash to desktop when pausing shapez 2 using the keybinding 'P' and then minimizing the game window to search the Wiki in their browser. The crash occurred without warning and the player could not reproduce it afterward. Log analysis revealed a fatal Mono runtime error and a native fault reporting error, but insufficient data was available for full diagnosis. The development team attempted multiple reproduction attempts across different builds but could not rec...

Crash reported by user after new update
Done • Priority: Medium • Fix: None • Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

A player experiences repeated game crashes after updating to version 0.1.0. The crashes occur within minutes of starting a new Normal difficulty save, typically after completing one or two milestones. Log analysis reveals a SerializationJsonException when reading a blueprint file and NullReferenceException errors during deserialization. The issue appears to be caused by incompatibility between save files from version 0.0.8 and 0.1.0. The problem was resolved when the player deleted the old sa...

There is a delay when unpausing after editing a large wire circuit
Done • Priority: Lowest • Fix: None • Resolution: Won't Fix

When unpausing the game after editing a large wire circuit, the game stops responding for a noticeable period. This can be reproduced by pausing, deleting a wire in a large circuit, and then unpausing. The expected behavior is that the game should not momentarily freeze when unpausing after editing a large wire circuit. This was closed as won't fix since there are calculations the game must run when unpaused, and the issue is considered minor and niche.

Big savefiles have very long loading times and cause the game to freeze if it's minimized while loading
To Do • Priority: Medium • Fix: Post 1.0 • Game: 0.1.1

Large savegames with over 500k structures experience very long loading times, and the loading widget stops spinning during the process, which may lead the operator to believe the game has crashed. When the game is minimized while loading in borderless mode, a "stopped working" error message appears, though the game will eventually load if given enough time. Testing across multiple versions shows loading times have generally increased, with borderless mode being particularly affected when focu...

Done • Priority: Medium • Fix: Dimension Update [0.1.0] • Game: 0.0.9-rc6 • Resolution: Cannot Reproduce

Also what do you run, DirectX 11/12 or Vulkan

But the game not starting at all like that is weird.

carmine coral
#

Like this.

#

If the game still doesn't run properly, then can you delete the following things in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\tobspr Games\shapez 2\

  • Local Folder
  • Shared Folder
  • settings.json
  • achievements.bin
#

Then if that doesn't work, then can you verify the game files?

vale hull
#
