eat a lot of stuff we dont like
and yeah not everyone is a pet person
we are all unique
I knew a girl who had a pet skunk once, now THAt people were scared of, but it was super affectionate and wanted snuggles all the time
nothing wrong with that ๐
skunks are
great
im sad a lot of pets have to have the gland removed but
they probably live good lives better than in the wild in many cases
spunky little creatures
I am sure hers was a rescue animal also
there you go
rescue โค๏ธ there's a lot of animals out there you can take in
but you do need to learn some stuff for various species
to be able to accept them
i watched videos for a long time but learning how much work it takes
You seem to be a pet person. I am nore of a technology person.
I have always wanted an Australian Blue Heeler dog though
They are cutein a ruff ugly sort of way, that I think looks very cool
you enjoying enshrouded :D?
or course it does
I know quite a bit about that
So, this 17gig update, is it just a bunch of bug fixes or something?
how long has it been since you played last?
A couple of days
wait you got a 17G update? ...why?
Dunno, I've been keeping ot updated as well
Are you on the Alpha channel?
Shouldn't be
the last one I got was like a week ago and it was like 4g
or something like that
Game version is default public version which was 4 days ago
And I didnt even see any updates on the site
Just getting some random unknown ghost update specific to me I guess, lmfao
I checked in the game news on Steam, that last large update was like April 21st
Yeah, i also wasn't able to find any trace of any large uodate since then
Yeah, maybe uninstal it and just do a fresh install of the latest version .. something is very odd
I mean, I was having issues with Vulkan Shaders, kept having to just skip it because it would take like, 40 minutes and then just permanently hang at 100%
maybe check for updates for drivers, the vulcan libraries, and for the game redistributables as well
There is no update, if you've got something 'downloading' on steam, then it's a steam thing, most likely varifying files, which for whatever reason it still calls a download even though it doesn't download anything.
Okay, because yeah, just double checked, no updates for any of my drivers were missed, so it must just be steam being weird
The main thing that got me was it was 17 gigs, if it was 1 or 2 I would have just assumed it was just steam doing steam things
You have shader precaching on, don't you?
Yeah
Prolly a shader refresh.
I found that disabling the steam cloud saves stopped the weird lag I had in the game every now and then
Well, I didnt have to skip Vulcan shaders this time, so maybe steam actually did something useful for me with that
like I would cast with my wand and the effects would appear a half second later. That seems to be steam cloud sync lag .. I also dont need the Steam cloud anyhow, as I only play on one device
interesting, it might have been an issue and so you had to re-download a pile of shaders ..
Likely you will now see this for other games as well
If so, they are taking their time even populating, lol
So, not a game update, just a shader cache . Try another game that has Vulcan, ans see what happens?
I only generate my own shaders, as I had issues with games crashing when ising shaders form other people
Disabling steam from precaching shaders solved that completely for me, I also increased the shader storage in my video drives a lot from the default allocated space
Hi guys! Hope yall are doing well. I recently started playing this awesome game. I have a quick question. I purchased the original soundtrack of this game and cant seem to find it anywhere on my game. Is it like automatically downloaded in my game?
Try right clicking enshrouded in steam, hit manage, browse local files, and there should be a music folder
Ok lemme try that. Brb
No I oly see a Backup folder and other .dat files
Maybe I have to restart the game and see?
Ij your library, at the top of the list, there should be a drop down menu, maybe if you swap to soundtracks it'll show?
Oh yeah I saw it just now. wow never seen this before ๐ ๐
Ngl, I had to look that one up, lmao,I apparently have 6 different soundtracks i didnt even know of
wow thx a lot. I was like wht do I do as I have a stream coming up and was panicking.. Bless u ๐
No problem, glad I could help
Dangg and this one has like 130 tracks.. Wowww
The only soundtrack I have is for Goat Simulator. And I had no idea I had it.
Thats pretty good if a deal, isnt it only 8 bucks?
So I will turn off the game music and play these 130 tracks on my music player right?
I apparently have like 3 for return to moria
No it was like 4 bucks
Yes? I have never messed with that, I just turned off most games music and rock out with Spotify while gaming
Ahhh, even better
When my wife and I want to game to music, we put on GDRadio.net and listen to Grateful Dead concerts. ๐
Yeah spotify is the best best, no doubts. But for enshrouded we need a proper medieval kinda music I think. And playing 130 on loop should be good i think..
And all these tracks are just banger imo.

Happy mothers day to all the moms here we love you and youโre a great mother!
hello guys i want to ask for a weird kind of help. Long story short my friends progressed a lot without me and im very behind in exp. Im 20 olevel and they are 28. Is there a chance anyone that doesnt want exp scrolls give me some so i can catch up with them?
Also happy mother's day to those who may have lost their moms, and those who may have lost their children. โค๏ธ
Need items for your new build, or resources to craft or fight that boss? Look no further than The Shroud Depot, a community run server that resets every hour on the hour.
Shroud Depot Resource World
In-game server IP: enshrouded.gv80.me:15639
@snow zodiac this might have what you want.
is it an enshrouded server?
what do i do
Join it and have a look through the chests there might be scrolls there. Tbh you're better off leveling up manually, doing a bit of grinding, cos the experience scrolls aren't going to do a lot for you. They don't give high XP
Yeah it's a server
how do i join ?
Open the game. Add the server. Click join.
no pw right?
Open game - "Join server" - type IP address of server - join server
Dude all the info is in the tab I just sent you
I'm not gonna read it for you and answer your FAQs as well, just read it and follow the instructions :p
Another update? Damn
Patches?
oh GOD now it's gonna spend ages doing the shaders
I wouldn't mind this if it wasn't currently once a week, I want to play it not watch it load
What do you mean "they" removed you?
The server resets and will kick everyone maybe you joined as that was happening try again
Yeah I was gonna say I doubt you've been kicked already
Oh and shout out to the Depot thank you for everything!
Absolutely, invaluable place
when i put the server info again it doesnt let me in
There are a couple depot servers have you tried another?
And join without a password
The Shroud Depot a place where builders get stuff built! Haha we need a commercial for it I think would be fun
You get it?
@pastel oyster lol ๐ please ๐ make this happen!
Happy Mothers Day ๐ ๐ฅ
well you can also download the files, might make things easier.
it could be possible that you joined right when the server was resetting, as it resets every hour.
I love this option and from the description it seems easy enough to do but I just feel weird about messing with the files of the game as a non techy person itโs scary to me. I wonder if there could be a more user friendly way to do this like with the world sharing features?
Surely the only other way would be to join a server with an edited ini
Which is just as techy, ll
Lol
Iโm hoping for a feature for world sharing in the future with an option to download worlds from there easily
Like click a button that does all the file sharing for me so I donโt have to mess with game files
I donโt even know what that means lol ๐
Sorry Iโm a big dum dum caveman
๐ ๐ You can edit a servers config to make day shorter or longer, change weather, make enemies easier or harder etc etc
Ah ok like in the programming not menu section in game
Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing mother's out there who are there kids world. ๐
LOL I went to watch TV while the shaders compiled and i came back to the title screen with no character on it, it looks like they've just popped for a smoke or sth xD
They got tired of waiting fpor you.
Hah yeah "why are they off watching tv god damnit"
Bro has stuff to do, not waiting on you
quite right too
how do you hold to attack on the wand?
if you mean the heavy attack... wands don't get those

I think you have to tap it over and over, like with all weapons
yeah it makes no sense since they dont even have a charge attack
I am hoping they'll get a charge attack soon 
Hi. Sorry if i have asked in an other chan but :
Does the skill "Fatal Precision" (ranger tree) work with magic attacks (like magic staff or others) ?
I've seen several builds with but when you're looking in the char stats, it seems not working.
Hi everyone, can I find a team of Russian speaking people here?
thanks
You're welcome, big fan of what you did to Francis
where can I find out how good a weapon I have and can I find the top weapons of different classes?
But we already got one.
Hey y'all got two dumb questions, hope y'all don't mind.
- Are there any summoner type class/skills in this game?
- Y'all think there'll be a discount soon? I'm just a broke student, I'll be buying either way but thought of asking just in case lol
I'm under the curse of the Fallen. Where can I find the cleansing tonic?
- sort there is something but depend what you mean as a summoner. There are skull being summoned when the target is dead for example
- The next major steam sale is June 25 โ July 9, 2026,If Keen decides to put it on sale before then, no one knowsโwell, at least I don't .You can ask him tomorrow when the CM is online if he knows anything
Ok cool ty
And by summoner I mean summon a monster/pet thing to fight alongside me. Nothing too fancy, just a typical summoner type class/skill that you would normally see in MMOs.
you must check on your steam, maybe now it's on sale with portal knight, so you get two games but i'm not sure
the only summon right now is from necromancer skill.
Ohh they have necromancy? Perfect then, that's my favorite. Tyvm for the info.
No problem you welcome!
There's something you don't read every day lmao
Just imagine you rocking up to the College of Winterhold like "Hey do you guys do necromancy? That's my favorite!!"
The sun came out here, it's lovely. I'm Minecrafting, working on my forever world
hello everyone!
I really don't understand the nerf to updraft. Were people having too much fun with it?
I used to log in to the game, sometimes, to just relax and fly around, but now it doesn't feel as good anymore.
it definitely wasn't us having too much fun i can tell you that xD
not that there's a lack of fun
I'm under the curse of the Fallen. Where can I find the cleansing tonic?
should be in your personal crafting menu
Hello everyone
What's cracking
hi
hi is someone know how i can download world foram shared worlds? (i wanna play with my gf on it)
shared worlds cant be used like that at the moment unless the author uploaded it or is willing to share the file
just for viewing/exploring
oh okey thanks
Do you have any download recommendations?
im not even sure what worlds have been uploaded like that for download
maybe some of the builds in the https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1200109637815517184 have links
Thanks
Hey guys is anyone having difficulty making sugar at the farmer she no longer is offering this in her menu in fact all the foods she used to have are gone for me
there is a cooking station now
I can make food at my kitchen no issue but I cant make any sugar ugh
try the cooking pot/campfire thing
ok will do ty for responding
i remember making sugar with it recently
there were almost too many recipe in each npc so they did some cleanup and moved some of the recipes to other places
That was very smart on their part.
Still bugs me the NPCs do this for free. Would be nice to have currency of some sort. Sorry to piggyback lol
i mean keep playing you might get your wish
Im scared to ask will we Lose all of our progress when the game goes Live??
no you shouldn't lose anything
the world is updated a lot over time so things outside your land-claim might change a bit but otherwise there's little reason to suspect you'll have to worry about that
Well you get gold coins now so currency is in the loop lol
Hello there! I'm french and I'm not that good in english. But I'm curious for news about the game and the community.
hello people, Superfast here from Greece, cheers
Parakalo' !
Ti kaneis ? ๐
( oh sorry english only) it means how are you
Hi
hello
Hello
The walls are alive!
hi, some brazilian player for play?
will the axe chopping animation be less clunky in the future?
Why is it so hard to catch Silverback fish for sushi recipe, been fishing for hours and caught only five where as have caught 20+ of the other common fish??
You're going to Brazil
o.O

Good morning flameborn!!!!

Good morning

Hi friends
How's your Monday started flameborn?
I made screamingly spicy schexuan eggplant for lunch
In the worst way possible.
Meeting.
And now I've got no LTE where I am. 
Forgot my Switch 2 too, etc. this day will be the worst.


mm, boar juice
yellow
Bb moar juice 
PURPLE
how's everyone doing
sucky as usual
so relatable
apart from work, good actually
Crying in german bureaucracy.
I'm awesome. Just ate way too much. Had lasagna and cheesecake for my kids birthday... time to chill and kill.
sounds like a nap is required
hahah, that'll definitely happen. Hopefully not while in mid glide lol.
I will never understand why the world call it lasagnA and not lasagnE
Sounds very good! Cheesecake with strawberry?
No, was a plain baked cheesecake. I perfer it like that. It was SO good.
Oh yees it's also very good!
One day i will learn how to make a good property cheesecake
hi
guys is there a server i can join to explore while my friends are away cause the server we play is hosted locally and im not the one with the save files
pousai aderfe mou
Ehh kala, esu? ๐
The discord for LFG is pinned in the lfg channel
where cant find it
Press on #1195389948069675009 the pinned post is the official discord for lfg
im in the discord. i mean if there is an ingame server to join real quick to farm some exp
Dude, late game crafting became a thing? Rn its easier to run around on higher level zones looking for chests lol
There's nothin really stoppin you from also just making a singleplayer world you can play at your own pace, it's pretty easy to skip ahead with an existing character and race through the quests you cant stip
LORE - my blacksmith doesnt give me the new lore titled - " Tales of Yonder (1/1) " ( Revelwood chapter )
As far as i know, there isn't a official server, are all hosted by players
How daaare you saying the truth.
๐ฎ
I don't know! Blue fault not mine!
Wow now I am the issue.
I imagine that lore is gone. It looks like they removed lores tied to a person and not a page in the world
anyone here know how to configure peer to peer hosting server roles? cant see a way to alter permissions per role in the JSON file unfortunately
outside of the stuff in the in-game menu?
dont worry about it, I have managed to source some assistance ๐
.
hi all
Yo!
I'm having an existential crisis. I've been using the spiral staircases cause who doesn't love spirals?! but the NPC's don't use them
so none of them can make it to their beds
I'm feeling guilt about it lol

in my village the npc like to jump down from the cliff instead of sitting down near the fountain and enjoy the life...
They wanna be Flameborn too!
Give them gliders. Watch them grow up and leave the nest 
no no they just like to stand inside the mountain....
No fix for fishing yet. ๐ข
Hello ^^
is it broken? Was just gonna start that quest today, lol
Oh no I can't wait to see the crash-outs for a longer shader compilation lol
it's LONGER?
I knitted half a scarf yesterday waiting on it
Improved crash detection even more to help us diagnose and fix future issues. This affects a lot of VFX files, therefore shader compilation might take a bit longer than usual. Sorry about that, but we promise itโs for a very good reason!
By this rate I'll be giving scarves out left right and centre, I'll be able to do a whole one before it's loaded
Gaht dayumn
Right in the patch notes...
Haven't got round to reading them yet, only just stopped to think
and i'm not even doing that very well
Okay I have now read the patch notes
I'm at 10% within a minute though so... mileage may vary lol
hmmm, let me know
ah they shadowfixed the heavy attack animation jank !
woo
unless fixing dodge roll fixed that on the side
How are things coming with the steam deck support? ๐ฎ

I know its already been mentioned in chat, but another shader compilation? ... Its almost like the game doesnt want me to play it.
Well I walked away from the PC and came back and I don't see the Shader Compiling message in the bottom left anymore
so... 20 mins? give or take?
Still about half a scarf xD
Yeah it's a bit long but it's apparently for good reason so
mine took about 5 mins to load shaders. I guess pc specs matter maybe
good for you then
lol, Feel like I need to apologise now
๐
fking shaders
My pc's dad can beat up your pc's dad!
lmao
i hate those things
tbf normally they do take a while, but not this time for me
I take 2, one blue and one purple please.
Why does the compilation of shaders become a thing in modern gaming? I love the game, but that waiting really pisses me off. It is maybe the first game where I'm not sure that I like receiving updates. There is really nothing to do with it?
I answered this a few days ago so I'll just copy what I wrote again
"Good graphics sells, shaders have become a lot more intensive and complex because they make games look really good. Shaders used to be compiled in real time because they were simple enough that that was viable, but at this point trying to do that on consumer hardware runs into a lot of bugs and performance issues (which you can see in Enshrouded for example, if you try to play the game before shaders are done compiling)."
Modern games use waaaaaaaay more shaders than older games, because they make games look very good. The consequence is that that makes games harder to run on consumer hardware, and shader compilation is a way to reduce how difficult they are to run by doing a lot of the processing work up-front.
All that said, we know shader compiling is very time consuming in Enshrouded, speeding up the process is a big priority for us before 1.0
Before?
Will the "Dodge/Roll Stuttering" fix also stop the stuttering when using daggers after successive attacks??
Not sure, but let me know if that's still happening lol
I posted an F1 about it a few days ago. with a short clip and all my files...
Wow, if you send them all I'm sure they'll appreciate the meme-files. 
My meme's are all password locked๐
Update 0.9 confirmed! 
the "Faster Shader Compile Copper and Silver Coin and Horses" update
likely the official update name, my dad works at Nintendo 
I can't believe they only added stairs going in 1 direction xD
it... it is very silly, lol
they should let us mirror all props, and even scale them to some degree
I can imagine that scaling can be problematic; but ye.. and if items cannot be freely mirrored; just add 2 stairways XD
Good news, maybe... It seems to be "fixed" It'll take more testing, but for now it looks good๐
I donโt understand the big deal having to wait for shaders or anything else for that matter have we as a collective society lost all of our patience everything has to be instant gratification now days?
Yes
Insert Veruca Salt meme here
A really stupid question: Can't we just save the shader files and copy and paste them?
All good things come to those who wait๐คท
False haha but still hope thatโs how it works lol
And hard work and determination will get you far in life right lmao ๐คฃ
The big deal is it's not tiktok ๐คฃ
Brain rot I guess idk
Nooooooooot how it works ๐
you very much can not lol
that's why i say very stupid question ๐
I swap between versions of Enshrouded, versions that are already installed, and it has to recompile shaders Every time 
also while compiling shaders, the game say 11 threads, but my cpu has 24. what i'm missing?
If you COULD just copy, then it wouldn't need to recompile them as much as it does ^^
i mean my CPU has 24 threads
Cmon are you telling me the modders donโt have a mod yet that makes the shaders go faster lmao ๐คฃ
the other 13 are on standby...just in case
because it throws away the old ones when the version changes... you could very much copy them somewhere else before you change versions and then copy them over when you get back to the original version. But only if nothing else changed (like GPU drivers etc).
where are they then? lol
@pliant quarry I have a complaint.
only one? XD
deleted, because you changed versions.
this is my favorite activity! 
Relevant to this conversation, yes.
no like, where do they go so I could copy them? lol
skill issue
Lmfao
Uhm, I'd have to check what the toolfix script does. There's info online tho about where the shadercache is for Enshrouded.
Got em!! Hahaha
You promised me longer shader compiling... this one was QUICKER than normal!!!!
lol
Hey I specifically used the word "might" for a reason smh
is quite faster to be hones i have 2 games open and already 53%
False advertising
"where are the other threads"
probably in your other game
I'll let you off the hook this time....
even if i close the game enshrouded use only 11 out of 24 i think
WoW, such generous
Ryzen CPU?
Enshrouded sits at 13 for me, but goes down if I load another game
yes, 7900 X3D
I only use 9... works for me'
Mobile enshrouded when? Lmao ๐คฃ
I think it technically works on steam deck!
Yeah I wanna ask Q about this aswell. I think it comes down to the AMD/Windows X3D Scheduling with the cores.
idk cause I am too poor for steam deck, I bought a switch 
I have 32 cores but shader comp only uses 15 Threads, so I'm curious as to why that happens
Maybe it's not fully optimized to get the most out of XD3โI'm not sure.
I canโt afford one of those Iโm poor
aw same dude!
nono, the problem is, only half the cores have the 3D Vcache
and Windows optimizes to use only those cores for games
seems to me Intel does better in the shader department
which probably comes down to the 3D V-Cache and the X3D chips, again.
yea
Iโm saving my money for the new steam cube thingy when it comes out gonna give it a go see how it compares to pc gaming or whatever idk
It's going to be a waste of money
Its well known that Windows and AMD run the games on the Cores with the fast cache to optimize for performance, so they let the non 3D Cache cores sit about doing almost nothing game related.
8 minute and is done with 2 game open so i can't complain at all!
Mine took 20 mins this time around.
PCs/graphics cards are pretty much that already as soon as you buy the top one itโs outdated and need a new one anyways to load these massive shaders lmao jk
you mean the new steam machine?
Yeah Iโm curious about it
I booted the game like 30 seconds ago and already at 10%
this be fast
Oh yeah, for sure.... I'm just saying, if you already play on a 1/2 decent PC, it's not worth your time to buy one...IMO.
Core 0-7 are hammered tho, and so are the threads.
As i complained to Toast, it was quicker than normal, for me by about 5 mins ^^
Iโm not much for consoles but I see this thing as more of a hybrid so itโs very tempting to check it out
My hardware is 6 years old and wasn't top of the line at the time either so ๐คท
I'll be more interested when they finally release their OS... THAT should be good.
Yes that too
I'm wondering if theyre even using something like the PSO stuff or just "shader is there, shaders needs compiling"
Absolutely no idea.
But that's a me question lol. Because I know my way around the Unreal Editor and I know that no game I ever played had to compile so many shaders like the Unreal Editor does all the time lol
Far beyond my understanding of the matter ๐
Change one project setting and it compiles north of 10k shaders for 30 minutes on all cores
Iโm so ready to dump windows FR
Ouch.
Microsoft is the devil.. mama said
Same... I'm still on W10, thank gawd i never "upgraded'
I did like an idiot
Depending on the project for sure, but the Editor just compiles every possible shader it could ever use. Kinda wish some games had that option in the final release.
And now I'm wondering if the shader selection here is actually "selected" or just "compile em all"
I can imagine it being 'selected' because from time to time we compile shaders and for me it literally takes seconds to compile them, other times a couple of minutes and on the average 20-25 mins.
I still have my original install USB if it goes sideways and auto updates. I'll wipe everything and start again clean... Ain't no way I'm using W11
Thatโs smart dude
Yeah no I mean, there is a difference between "Shader exists" and "Shader actually gets used for displaying stuff in the game". Which is what Im talking about with the UE Editor.
It sure does select "Shader didnt change, dont need to recompile". Which is what you refered to here I guess?
Yea that's what i meant. There's a different process as well then?
Unreal has some black magic level tech behind it but it comes at the cost of being extremely hard to run if devs don't optimize it lol
Yeah, but there is also no "come on game, let me just compile all the shaders you have"-Option on a "shipping game" using UE. The Editor compiles them all tho.
every game I've ever played using UE5 is total trash...
Which is something I wish I could do for some games with the constant stutter struggle.
I heard Forknife is good with it tho๐
Embark studios have proved that it's a great engine when used properly. The Finals and Arc Raiders are both incredibly beautiful and technically impressive games that run great on most hardware
It's all black magic behind the screen anyways.
yeah, I never played either of them....pvp, meh lol
The Finals mentioned ๐ฃ๏ธ ๐ฃ๏ธ ๐ฃ๏ธ
That's the whole thing about Stutterstruggle with Unreal. You can't just compile all the possible shaders in a AAA UE Project or you're gonna sit there for 8hrs. Thats what the PSO Caching stuff and relativly short shader precomp comes from. BUT it rarely, if ever, catches all the shaders the game actually needs, hence, it stutters.
We need a better solution for this in general going forward.
I think UEs problem is that it's such a common engine that's so easy to use that it ironically makes it very easy to create janky, unoptimized games with it haha. That's more of a dev problem than an engine problem, though.
I agree with that
more than a Dev problem, I'd call it a management problem
Faster faster faster
Ahhhhhh so you mean, what the AAA's do is hide the fact they have 1000000 thousand shaders by not compiling them all and then there is game performance issues... Yea i can see that, after all, looking at all the grumbles with shaders here ๐
Unity had a similar reputation for a while I remember. It had a reputation that all unity games were janky and unoptimized, but that's because it was one of the easiest engines to get into (especially for solo devs). So a lot of people's janky, unoptimized projects just happened to be made in Unity.
like. it functions, but good luck catching any rares or epics!
Sonic Team has proven time and time again, that you can make Janky Unoptimized projects without using Unity! 
Yeah. They try to find all the shaders the game needs during playtest sessions and all, but you'll always miss some and then you get shader compile stutters during gameplay.
But you don't want a consume to compile 100% of every possible shader that could be used in the game either. Because then, well, like I said, you're gonna sit there for 8 hrs probably at 100% CPU usage.
especially if they make MMOs with UE5
Yeah Enshrouded is quite hard to run in general, I think that probably contributes to our shader compilation being longer than some people are used to, we try to optimize things for in-game performance as much as we can.
I know it's easier said than done, but i'm surprised they don't have a 'catalog' of shaders they use and can use that to seperate what's needed and what's not.
However, your graphics engine is new, so it's still in development
How many developers are working on UE, and how many on Enshrouded?
People are just impatient
Yeah, all the optimizations for us have to be done in-house, we can't exactly wait for Epic to make an engine update for us ๐
Yo
(from google) Following major layoffs in March 2026, Epic Games has approximately 4,000 total employees. Engineering is the largest department with over 1,400 staff, dedicated to Unreal Engine and live services, while the company has millions of active external users and developers.
Keen Games, based in Germany, generally operates with a team of approximately 50 to 100 employees
50 to 100 employees? 
Thats the thing with shaders. You cant really do that.
Maybe you could. But it would take so much time to do that analysis and youd have to rerun that every time a material changes.
Yeah we're around 60-70 last I heard I think
Yea, as i say, i know it's easier said than done ๐
including positions like me in publishing, marketing, HR, etc.
clearly there's no excuse, get 3 of them working on the coin unicycle so Van will be happy 
...but don't make it a mount, make it a 2H weapon, to really confuse Van
What is a coin unicycle ๐ค
it's the thing Van wanted me to request on April 1st, lol
If you have to ask, you don't want to know.
Penny farthing ?
I don't know enough about graphics programming and shaders but Ive seen how different materials cause different shaders to constantly recompile. Change one value in a material and the whole 210 shaders that material uses need to recompile. Dont ask me why, but it is what it is
๐
sorry we had to change them from Penny Farthings to Quarter Farthings
inflation
it's like a unicycle with a training wheel lol
Spaghetti code comes to mind ๐ If it works don't fix it !
^ me with the updraft 
Yeah naw, Im not getting into shader coding anytime soon lol
Neither smart nor patient enough for that 
I have the patience part at least 
and then.
horse armor dlc.
A lot of game files are interconnected for optimization reasons, same reason why hotfixes like this can be several gigabytes despite having relatively "small" changes. When a small tweak is made to a big file, the whole file has to be redownloaded and recompiled.
But yeah, I'm also not an engineer so I don't know the exact technical details.
horse pachinko machine I am pretty sure is the next update..
I recall a story from EVE, where a single dev coded one of the structures in the game, the dev in question passed away in an accident and from that point on, no one knew how their code worked, and anything they tried to do around that code broke the game ๐ Eventually to the point they fased out that particular structure...
Yup, reference dependancies. I can only imagine what a hellscape that is on a shader level lol
Its bad enough with .dll references at my workplace

Sounds like Microsoft.
I can imagine that sort of thing happens everywhere though. One leaves a company on bad terms and doesn't tell anyone what they've done and how ๐
FF14 has the same problem: the code is outdated, and the original developers who created the game are no longer around, so the new developers are struggling. This is also why the game has released updates much less frequently in recent yearsโthey donโt have the workforce or the right people to work on it.
I do love stories of the opposite though, where someone loves what they're doing so much they add extra features, that don't get used.
Twilight Princess has a couple of those
my favorite Twilight Princess Fun Fact, is that the fishing paddle boat was programmed to let a dog ride on the front of it.... but there's no dog in the fishing hole
I despise .dll errors........they are the bane of my extistance
The works being the .dll the file exists error
whadaya meeean... coworker checked in revision 31992 while I was doing my stuff and now I gotta take his untested bullshit and drop that to QA without any info what actually changed... arghh 
I'm more in the "you gotta take this change in the other .dll with you cuz you where stupid enough to use the current branch to compile against. live with the consequences"-camp

sounds like a great idea for ๐
check existing entries before making a new one tho
yeah, found someone pretty much suggesting the same thing too
and i totally dig the worms for fishing that they suggested too
guys can you upwote it if you have time? i don't want to spend the rest of the eternity eating corncobs, popcorns and other food made with corn
I look away for 2 hrs and you guys use up all the activity in it
there's a limit!?
sadge :/
autobahn does not have limits!
In germany it has.
Except you're in a different one than me.
in some part there is no limits!
As you said there are limits though!
The limits are the people not getting outta my way when I come at them at 200kmph on my bike 
c'mon move your stupid VW up at 120kmph outta the left lane ffs
75 is fast though.
mph or kmph? ๐
you only need to go 88 to time travel.
I know that, I'm wondering what you're talking about 

because we legally go 100kmph on roads that just go from village to village lol
so 125 ish kmph on a highway is effing slow lol
shouldnt that be 35-45. gotta be saaaaaafe
He's US, he needs to shove the car at these speeds.
speed is dangerous
speed is scawy
sigh. american speed limits suuuuuuuck
nice country road.
25mph
and the tourists go 5-10 under.
We all know they needed to put these speed limits or else Toast would outspeed everyone.
i could easily out race Toast in my bug.
It really highly depends on where you're at in germany tho
Generally, its "up to 100kmph" but depending on where in germany you are, you really don't wanna try and push your luck actually hitting those speeds lmao
don't underestimate the zippyness of my 2006 ford focus that's barely held together by rust
corners like a go-kart, accelerates like a 40t truck 
exactly lmao
you will beat me on the straights but I will zip by you on the corners
especially if it's off road or snowy conditions, that front wheel drive makes it a handling beast
I got a 2017 ford focus. and that still won't accelerate lmao. Granted, its a rather low power engine, but still, its funny, doesnt matter if i push the pedal half or full down, result is the same lol
id smoke ya! ๐
beep beep!
Every time I drive another car it always bothers me how touchy the acceleration pedal is, because it like... actually works
Hahaha you sound like my aunt. Her old focus still has a kick, but you gotta be careful with it and brake really early
herby's a tough fight
Hi
My car is older than yours! 2003!
And yes has some rust but it's okay!
sadly no image perms, i cant send the ungodly amount of people who are trying to contact me on discord ๐ญ
you can send images in other channels most notably like the https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1235270718577578085 or https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1046840542006345841 or even https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1200109637815517184 if you want to release it more officially
feel like those are specifically for enshrouded tho
but nice to know incase i want to send enshrouded images
there is a cozy corner?
yeah its a channel group at the bottom
ah, i guess it goes in off topic
sounds good ๐
@visual lance are we enshrouding tonight?
Hell yeah
Gentoo made me cry.
hello trying to figure out discord new to this but trying thanks for having me.
Hey welcome!
anyone elses Yaks just clipping into the wall and stuff? I have made an underground enclosure but they keep wanting to goto the door thats like up above them?
any advice on how to arrange the yak enclosure so they dont keep getting stuck in place?
as everyone knows, Cats are Liquid...
but little did anyone know, Yaks are a 5th state of matter 
yaks are quantum
My yaks yearn for the underground walls and their destiny is to starve until I come to harvest their wool. 
paranormal yaktivity going on rn. hes just stood half way in the wall ๐ญ
hello
I wonder if Enshrouded will see their roadmap through. Game development takes time and hiccups occur so it wouldnโt be unexpected but I would love to introduce this to my PlayStation friends. I love it on PC.
pretty confident on this end
help might be available depending on what
is this right place to ask
there's some help channels below specifically for it, this is more like teh general chat
ok
https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1060205542766825512 this channel and the ones under it
thanks
if anyone wants to play, hit me up
Looking to play with others?
If you're interested in grouping with others for a new play through, or to build, then head over to the LFG forum in the Enshrouded Discord server #1195389948069675009

If you were me, and be thankful you are not, where in the Kindlewastes Shroud would you look to maximize your quantity per minute of Shroud Sand.
you would not go to the kindlewastes for such a task, you would go to Nomad Highlands, and look for ||bright green "Acidic Mycelium" in the shroud||
then mine a lot of ||"Sandstone" in kindlewastes... then using the Laboratory, make|| a ton of it really fast and easily 
Why mine three things when you can mine one?
well... would you rather:
- Mine 100 shroud sand
or
2: mine ||10 sandstone and 5 acidic mycelium||

Given the time it takes to get in and out of the shroud, teleport, find places, teleport, combine, teleport, deliver........
I know of a good and easy place to farm ||Acidic Mycelium|| 
(my wife is trying to talk me out of your way. lol )
and it's near an elixir well... so you just go to the checkpoint and teleport oooouuuuutt 
The Wife Spawn has acquiesced. I shall go for acidic mycelium.
woo! okay I will DM you the map
Wow.
When she gets up from her nap, we will be approaching 10,700 shroud sand. Good thing I listen better than my wife does. โค๏ธ
Stations will work with the server shut down, yes?
My game keeps crashing ๐
I'm pretty sure timers only run when you're active - don't know about dedicated though
guys are there any shroud depot server available rn? i need to grab some stuffs to build but couldnt find any
wait like 15 minutes and check again
they tend to reset at the top of the hour
ty
wanna play
try the LFG discord I linked above
it get busy over there?
I don't actually know because I am never lfg
lol a good thing i suppose ๐
srry but im just playing alone rn
ok
definitely post a thread in the https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1195389948069675009
lots of people are eager for people to play with all the time
old and new
I solo 90% of the time. Otherwise I play with friends from here or my spouse.
i wanna start up with a group myself but its hard to find people with a compatable schedule
most groups pump the monsters up and kill their dedicated
lolz
I usually play with other helpers and mods during testing of stuff.
sounds peaceful
though not likely ๐
in cander perhaps
I play with my spouse some but mostly I don't like building with other people
to each our own
i like town vibes in creative communitys
don't get to have that too often
hoping for the best with this games future in that regard
I am making a town myself. I tend to get particular about how I want things
'I have a very specific aesthetic
Have you appeased the Duck gods today
the outcome i feel is worth giving it a shot now and then
no :<
if i had a lake or body of water they visited i might, lots of spare bread
Bestie gets it
been hearing the wonderful sound of geese lately tho
He's appeased the duck gods today
to be fair, I am just listening to various catchy songs
They are coming for u
The will nibble ur toes when u least expect it
i welcome them
again i have a lot of bread
we'll be good friends
U will be spared the wrath of quackzilla
I gave borbs food yesterday
hhmmm....
Fat pigeons
what kinda borbs
idk..... that could make a heck of a stew...
Idk about that much
maybe not the brightest but the whole of a creature need not be determined by a single factor
They never let me pick them up
that could take some time with them
me and the ducks will play NES, I have a great game with an NES Zapper
it has Duck in the name, they'll love it
while i jest at their intelligence their emotional capacity is quite intact, with proper steps you can definitely hold them
Did u know Pigeons are considered domesticated animals and therefore u can take one in as a pet off the street
many of them do semi depend on humans
i reccomend getting an Opossum
same concept but they live in trash cans
and are much cuter
Or a raccoon
Because theyyy are foofy
a very serious pet ngl
U gotta get one thats still a baby
there's free cats around here
leave your door open and obtain a cat
Stealing babies sounds bad
they have a personality shift like some animals when they come of age
i guess we do too but we live a lot longer so its sorta lengthened and not as obvious
.>
<.< definitely obvious
I do tend to be swayed by offers of foodies
you know the government doesnt want you to know this, but the cats you find at the park are free
i have over 400 cats in my garage
I prefer doggo 
cats are insane, how kittens know humans are a source of s afety or support
had an akita here some years ago, great breed
as an animal person im glad we have so many animals in enshrouded
surprising how many tbh
Good morning fellow cat lovers 
u gots cats?
got plenty of strays in my area but i don't live alone and they don't want cats ๐
Just one 
hope yalls get on good ๐
Usually, yes. Hes a bit of a menace but we manage 

I am more of a dog person. 
Well dont feel greeted then 
I have been making a list of things that I think would be cool if they were added to the game. Is there a channel to post this? I don't want to hornypost on main

just a warning though, if you haven't "beaten" the game, there's likely some stuff in the game you want, but don't know it's already there
True! But I am weird and want a blitzball weapon so I can rp wakka and also to walk around while barding
the game forces you into a "sit" animation while playing instruments, so you can play near a fire and get a rested bonus.
you can only rest at a fire while indoors, or outdoors while sitting :P
Wait, what... what the heck is a hornypost?? sounds like something for the 18+ channel
I wish I could slash with my sword/weapon... while crouched 
I keep dodging into an enemy, then being forced into a crouched/stealth position due to hitboxes, and then can't really attack well 
yea, that's getting annoying for me too... why is it even a thing
it's a hitbox thing... when you dodge, your hitbox gets smaller, I think 2 blocks tall, smaller than crouched which is 3 blocks tall
If I wanted to crouch I'd hit C
but once you try to "get up" it checks for available space... and enemies can occupy the "available space" and force you into a crouched stance
if you dodge roll under a 3 block tall platform, you'll be crouched... which makes sense, the problem is it treats enemies like platforms too and suddenly you're crouched in front of a skeleton ||censored for funniness but not actually putting anything here cause I am a wholesome individual but I am sure you dirty minded folks can think of something to put here to laugh at
||
sounds like another "hornypost" lol
wholesome only
for I am a good wholesome link
Lunk.
are you here for the annual debate about Hydrocity?
sorry I'm TP Link, I don't save the princess 
"Your princess is in another castle" - No wait, wrong game
Jokes, it's a phrase "hornyposting on main"
why is everyone orange.
roles
your monitor broken 
No u. 
most of us have roles cause we want to be pinged when updates happen
I've never heard that expression/phrase before.
I am too uneducated and uninterested to get into what that means. 
Sounds like a snowdrops-problem.
probably comes from the darker side of Discord lol
I may have to start exploring ๐
but... I am already using dark mode...
what's darker than dark mode??
That's the place Lunks keeps calling "the Twilight realm"
Where the Furrys reside 
Good morning furryborn! I mean flameborn!
now that would be a whole different game lmao
wait for the DLC
Portal Knights had a "Furfolk DLC" so I wouldn't be that surprised if Enshrouded got something similar for funsies
Please, no.
although honestly I'd just want elf so my Link could be more accurate, lol
playable vukah when? 
I can't wait to play as Kyle ๐
upside: can't die. Downside, can't eat or drink for buffs 
that would actually be a very interesting way to play the game honestly
making "species limitations"
like a carnivore furfolk can eat multiple meats but can ONLY eat meats, so no strength foods, just health bonuses
skeletons not having the ability to eat foods at all... but perhaps aren't bothered by weather at all? wet and cold debuffs doing nothing?
honestly though I do kinda wish we could play as a skeleton as a fun easter egg
Steal the Dark Souls mechanic. After death you respawn as a Skelly untill you reach your stuff lol
oof no, lol
just let the barber peel my skin off to be a skeleton or something
who needs skin when you can join the flame-touched? 
what happens if you don't reach your stuff in the enshrouded version of this example?
do you remain a skeleton forever?
I take that as an... Whatever. 
return to cinder vault to rekindle your flame 
Loading screen the game
not a bad idea/game mode honestly
Only with ports off (You're not Flameborn anymore) / no glider (You're Hollow you'd lose bones).
You need to ride djhracer7 over to the vault.
well ive been enjoying this on my own even in a sickened state thought may as well join the discord
- Sorry to hear that.

- Sorry that you'll need to hang around with us then.

- im only waiting for the shaders again..... it took like 2 hours first time
Fifty hours of shaders
i mean it looks this good imma give it the time its earned it got my character in the flame set outfit and ngl not bad
Brother in style. 
thats the one
y'all not gonna win any fashion show like that 
it was my first cosmetic can you punch a guy while he is still starting out come on snowdrops
He envys us. 
indeed
i only got it a week ago as well so yer im doing well for starters im just thankful for my time in similar building games and as well as say TOTK or JC4 for movement systems wise
I hope you didnt take that personal, I was joking around 
<- this guy, resident ๐ง
i wasnt
Are you kids playing nice? Don't make Grandma come in out the shroud and switch ya.
nah they alright grandma im just a newbie
thank u very much just waiting on the update of the shaders again
Is it going super slow?
noticed that when it went from red to blue
yer only up to 30% but its going faster then the first time
In game, or that darn Steam "Processing Vulkan Shaders" thing?
in game im on the main menu
patience is worthwhile in this endeavor
Okay. My wife and I the other day waited on the Steam "Processing" before the game ever started for FOUR HOURS.
a beautiful world awaits
This game is utterly worth it.
i know art takes time to perfect
It has my wife and my attention an average of ten hours a day.
๐
indeed it can
that statement in itself offers an important lesson, it takes time
whoever you are in time you can create anything you have the passion for
Yeah yall are prolific!
then again there's almost no competition for this game tbh
plenty of voxel and block based games but with volumetric water and all that
nope o-o
indeed it does even giving it all the time it needs a step back to admire whats been done so far
This is the first game to capture us this hard since New World.
I start to feel old while being young... And in the same manner time nearly doesn't pass. 
At my age, time passes very quickly.
what's young, im 40 and i feel youthful
I'm 60 and feel every inch of it.
be there soon xD
least it'l feel like it
time passes slow enough but our recollection of it, not so much
feels like a flash sometimes
Tell me about it.
Three days ago I was playing my Atari for the first time. Two days ago, my daughter was born. Today it takes me three days to recover from a grocery store trip.
and 2 days to prepare for said trip 
who ever put Junjo Ito and not Junji Ito in the change log. /i cri
I'm in the early 30s and its already like that.
(not the recovery period tho)
activity is very regional here xD
cant complain really just used to an international community
I'm Left Coast USA, but I work swing shift
its all human in the end ๐
or hobbit, this game
i've had so many friends refuse to play it because the shortness
doesn't bother me very much
but seriously
$
?
hobbit or $***
Me either........I spend a lot of the time on it looking for then farming materials
coz $ if not hobbit xD
Oh and building. Lots of building or rebuilding
i don't even get it
im fine, this is a universe
im a bit shorter than i'd like ok
xD
henlo
I'm either a fake fan or fishing for engagement by posting the name with a typo. Would do me a solid if you thought it was #2
or is that toast
there's two of us
im not 100%
He's 4 minutes late. 
yeah but the #1
Last time he had the bigger hat.
i mean
the distinction is not very helpful tbh, what if one of us recruited the other lol
he has more hair and I think I have more hats
jk
xD
Toast said there's a couple people handling the position
in whichever depths
hair and hats being what they are
matter little ๐
but yeah to answer your question that's the two of us. You'll occasionally see other dev team members pop up around here
well its just good to know who's involved
thanks ๐
I am just here to meme. 
we know 
I mean, same
also I am mildly ill and as an average man this means that I am 95% incapacitated
Gladly I am healthy for now.
Can't say the same for my mood swings.
just looks a bit moody to me xD
its interesting how we all take a unique perspective on things
idk about look, he sure sounds moody for sure
interesting people are often quite hard to understand ๐
especially this guy
he's definitely an intersting person i can say that much
Y'all would look like that if it's raining all day!
good day to you CUB!
nah, not this time
Wait CUB implicated I am interesting. 
didn't implicate as much as outright said
quoted
But in what sense.
narrows eyes like Fry from Futurama.
don't worry about it
so toast then
i dont really care if there's 3+++ cm's im just trying to understand
v.v
Great.
Now sun is out.
Another reason to be mad.
i get more dms & friend requests than the CM's here :P
from other servers ofcourse
Hello everyone, anyone has the Level 45-50 Radiant Paladin Trouser and Helmet? I have the Chestplate, Gloves and Boots. I am willing to share it
I am pretty sure 2 people in the same armor does not fit.

yeah i know
All I'm saying is like I got 3 set of it that does not include the Helment and Trouser
now add me
i could care less about hacking this game beyond false creative mode
after several weeks of farming heartwood manually...
How to say it now... ๐๐ป ๐๐ป ๐ฅบ
Did you visit Shroud Depot? They probably have the legendary Paladin helmet and trousers
I was about to suggest a resource world too, to finish your set Ori
Need items for your new build, or resources to craft or fight that boss? Look no further than The Shroud Depot, a community run server that resets every hour on the hour.
Shroud Depot Resource World
In-game server IP: enshrouded.gv80.me:15639
Don't steal my ideas. 
I played this game for like 13 times with different people and I don't even know that place exists lol
i have now done so
yesterday i found out that accepting a lot of friend requests can crash your discord
Discord: How many friends?! 
Now you know!
check #off-topic you can see how many requests i had
ill check how many friends i have in total and send it there aswell
But also a reminder: You're in control of the buttons you push
Seen it, devastated by it.
I lurk around more than I show.
For some reason it says server ip not found
Pickles.
I'm going to bed before 0200.
Mark today on your calendar.
Good night.
843 friends so far
on discord
How many did Gentoo make cry?
countless
Gentoo made me cry. I even made a logo for it. The Gentoo logo with a tear coming out of the 'eye.'
Meds taken.
262 out.
Can't check right now if everything is alright, I'd suggest refresh or restart the game. Maybe because it's Tuesday Steam is also funky again. 
Interesting times
What is the best channel to check how to fix the crashes I keep getting every 5 minutes into a game
5 mins huh?
https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1060216335684087878 this channel and im sure they are working on these bugs
well some of them
@signal ocean are more worried about how you treat them
thx for the disrespect bro
ok general question then what is consider a felling weapon cause im using a hatchet on trees doing 10 damage both normal swing and heavy swing and i do have the lumberjack ability but when i press it....nothing do i need to swap to say my 2hand axe which is the headsman axe (forgive i cant spell it atm) or whats the go?
Theres a lumberjackaxe to craft.
only lvl 11 fyi
Depending on where you are at personal crafting and/or blacksmith
Guys, is the game basically done feature wise?
Not so long ago I've heard there was the last gameplay update before the game's release in autumn or something
Yeah there are tools you can craft to easen the grind.
You don't mine with ur bare hands. 
Check here:
Enshrouded Roadmap
Don't see a feature you want on the roadmap? Create a suggestion on Featureupvote!
So yes in a way it was the last bigger update before 1.0
Should I restart the "where's 0.9" debate? 
I will bite you.
like the scarpy ones i can craft and made no problem im just wondering where i can make the upgrade or do i need to make copper bars for that in which case i need to progress blacksmith quests
It's always the next metal tier yes
holds back vulpine DONT DONT ITS NOT WORTH IT
Except you use snow as a lumberjack axe... 
Right. Will only get a bad stomach.
looks like you got backup for once 
them??? ok then SNOW GET OVER HERE WERE GOING LUMBERJACKING TIME (im glad i can just be a silly in this as i can anywhere else)
hides
chases and picks up to throw over shoulder lets go trees are waiting
Thank you! โค๏ธ

Darnit, Van really did get a minion

no no they just let me know i could act like myself more then anything really
So the map is fully open or what "exciting new locations" are they mentioning in the roadmap?
So theres still time to convert you and save my face from meeting tree bark you say? 
no
They're probably talking about the flying islands area north of the summits
Oh
Theres a EA-Barrier that prevents you from going to the edge of the map and to the flying islands in the north of the map.
Well, last time I played I couldn't* access a big portion of the map ...and it was like 3 years ago? idk, so just asking ๐
It got a lot bigger since then too
I'll let Snowdrops do the explaining for once I got a deadline to catch. 
And maybe we can have some hope about the others edges where you can see that there's some buildings and villages here too, and as a dreamer, I hope there's also something about the weird dark builds that looks like placeholder that we'll be done
