troubleshooting

[narrow harness]

nothing its on the ground

[zinc oak]

Have you tried to craft one since the patch?

[narrow harness]

yes

i did sent a report with saves and logs yesterday but ill try to find a temporary fix or something

[zinc oak]

Dangit, I helped someone out with this one (or a very similar one) months ago and I can't remember what we eventually did. I know I went into their game but I am almost certain that what fixed it was something they eventually did and they didn't need me there.

[forest heart]

Have you tried jumping on another world to place it and see if it completes?

[narrow harness]

not since the patch no

ill try creating a new char and build it and have a friend build one too

ill do the mess around and find out thing

[rustic jasper]

Just a ping bro, you're literally the only one who has ever acknowledge the problem here in any way. Done a few tickets, bug reports, feedback. Soon been a year.
As you said, seems like not a high priority. Pretty sad tho, I don't want to have a translator/learn a languge when playing the game. Thought about starting this again but that drove me nuts last time and seems pretty non-logical to have it set up that way.
But saw some your feedback, glad you've enjoyed the progress 😄 Hopefull someday I will too once I can play the game in a proper language options.
Anwho... cudos for your help back in January, maybe i'll come back again some day to the game.

[zinc oak]

Entertain me for a moment. I am trying to go through what they did, and I think I remember something.

Can you take your Alchemist to another base, place them down and remake the item and place it at that location to see if it works?

[zinc oak]

Sorry I didn't respond, but I am not sure what issue you are actually referring to. What is the problem you are having?

[narrow harness]

didnt think of this one ill try it tonight for sure

[foggy snow]

Is anyone having issue with enemy spawns since the newest update? I can't get anything to spawn.

[forest heart]

Any specific area? Any specific mobs? Or anything and everything?

[foggy snow]

The entire map - enemies, animals

I mean even including the halls

[zinc oak]

Everything seemed to be spawning as normal for me - but Maybe go into your difficulty settings and set the mob spawning higher to see if that fixes it then set it back to see if it stays?

[forest heart]

Solo or on a server?

[foggy snow]

Server - I will go make sure nothing is weird with my difficuilty setting.

[rustic jasper]

no worries 😄 been a long day and probably feeling needlessly frustrated about pretty much anything now. I can almost feel how dang bitchy I can sound off. for a 40y old attempt of a man I would expect more 😄 Need to jump out for just a bit will come back with the issue once I sit back to the computer.

[zinc oak]

Was the server updated/restarted for the update?

[forest heart]

Give the server a restart if you haven't already.

[foggy snow]

It was yeah - a restart fixed it for a second, then nothing again. Same problem across multiple restarts.

[forest heart]

I assume if you go into your own game you have no issues with spawns?

[zenith egret]

can confirm, killing boss updates ectoplasm quest

[forest heart]

Wonderful.

[zinc oak]

Awesome! Glad it was fixed for you.

[foggy snow]

Good question, I should try that.

[forest heart]

This will determine if it's a you issue or a server issue (i'm assuming it's a server issue)

[harsh goblet]

Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40 GHz 2.40 GHz
Installed RAM: 16.0 GB (usable: 15.8 GB)
GPU: RX 580

[foggy snow]

Well can't be just a me issue - other people on the server can't see anything either. And server is hosted on another box that isn't where I'm playing the game.

[forest heart]

So certainly seems like a server issue. Might be worth poking around in https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1195385334310121593 if the typical restarts/updates don't work, maybe they've heard/know something.

[zinc oak]

Your system is basically sitting at minimum specs to be able to run the game, and below the recommended specs. Your CPU is debatably below the minimum specs. Performance issues, even on the lowest possible settings are pretty much to be expected.

I hate to be the one to tell you this but, your computer is not good enough to play unoptimized games without issue - at least not anymore. It might be able to do it on older games, but it's essentially a 7-10 year old system - which for computers is geriatric.

[viscid portal]

So, i'm running the server off one of my other pcs through steam. After the update, the server isn't showing up anymore. I updated the game and the server client. Any ideas?

[zinc oak]

#server-support should be able to help you out. We don't know too much about server stuff in here.

[viscid portal]

ty

[obsidian shale]

Hey! Good to hear back from you, even if it's not under ideal conditions. Hopefully you can enjoy the game sometime soon 😅. No worries, happy to help when I can even if it's not much!

[steep leaf]

I had a problem with a quest not updating and as I was late game anyways I decided to start over. I have the same quests now and the same problems 😭

[forest heart]

What quest?

[steep leaf]

Cosmetic maid outfit

I asssumed that creating a new world would get rid of those quests until I came to them again but same quests

[forest heart]

Something like that will be a character tagged quest, not a world one.

[steep leaf]

So I should create a new character if I want to get rid of it?

[forest heart]

The quest is still in your quest log or do you mean a map marker is still there even though the quest is complete?

[steep leaf]

Quest is still in the quest log

I found the outfit but it won’t axknowmedge that I did it

[forest heart]

You've put the items in a box and taken them back out again?

[steep leaf]

There was never any map marker for this quest but I found a video showing me where

[steep leaf]

Like a chest?

[forest heart]

Yes.

[steep leaf]

Let me try that

When I go to someone else’s server it shows both steps as completed but still shows up in my quest log

On my own server it only shows one step as completed

[forest heart]

Can you post a quick screenshot?

[steep leaf]

Of the other server or my server?

[forest heart]

Just yours, that you're having issues with.

[steep leaf]

Also I tried activating a missed embervale quest to see if that would change anything and it didn’t. Now I can’t get out of exploration mode or whatever it’s called

Getting ss now

[rustic jasper]

So basically it's that the game forces another language for keybinds/tooltip what to press, based on your windows keyboard layout, nothing to do with your language or region settings.
To experience this wonder, go to your windows settings and set your keyboard layout to finnish. You'll see what I mean soon after 🙂
Game, OS, everything in english, except I life in finland, so I own a finnish/nordic keyboard to be able to type nordic things when needed.
Enshrouded is pretty much the only thing in the past 30y of using any software that forces in the game my tooltips(eg. Press this button to do this), but the tile or image of they has the finnish equivalent of a word for that key. Which none of my finnish friends or coworkers even use.... in finnish...
Feels redundant to force a languge in the game only on that part, just based on your physical keyboard layout 🙂

[forest heart]

@steep leaf I'm honestly not sure. The only other thing i'd try is to jump onto another server (Possible the one that says it's completed already?) Put the items in a chest and taken them back out again to see if it updates on your character. If that doesn't work, then submit a bug report using F1, in case there's an actual issue with either the quest or your character.

[feral pelican]

Does anybody know how to fix the massive drop in frames when using the map function in game. I apologize if there is information regarding that somewhere posted already. I didnt find any good solution yet.

[forest heart]

There is no fix, but it is on their radar.

[haughty adder]

(not sure if this is the right place to put this) - Updated the patch a few hours ago. I don't think limestone is supposed to do that.

[feral pelican]

good to know. Thank you!

[forest heart]

Submit a bug report using F1 in game ^^

[haughty adder]

Okiday

[steep leaf]

Didn’t work. Already submitted a bug report yesterday

[forest heart]

Then in this case it's a wait and see unfortunately.

[echo cargo]

Hi. Since the patch today, it is impossible to add a new custom mark on the map. Are you facing the same issue on your side ?

[vestal harbor]

everything's fine on my side

[north fox]

Anyone experienced lower average FPS after today's patch? I swear I'm going crazy.

[steep leaf]

That was my fear 😭. Do you happen to know how long it takes for them to get to the tickets? I understand they’re busy just trying to get a sense

[echo cargo]

Thanks for your reply. A game restart doesn't fix 😦

[vestal harbor]

Give more details, button appear ? visible ? at witch step it doenst work ? etc

[forest heart]

Wouldn't have a clue and unless it comes in with something they're fixing in a similar area, i doubt a cosmetic quest that doesn't appear to be preventing you from getting said cosmetic will be an overly high priority, but i have no insider info on such things ^^

[steep leaf]

Very true

[echo cargo]

On the map, I can right clik, add a marker, select the icon/color and click on create... But the marker is not added on the map.

[upper mica]

Hi there, idk if its just me but the game is more bugged then before the patch. The animals a glitching around, the springs are not giving water anymore and the NPCs get stuck in objects all the time. I cant really tell where those 32 gb went tbh 🧐 I have more FPS now - thats great!

[vestal harbor]

mhh wondering if there is a limit. Did you put many ?

[harsh goblet]

D: holy cannoli

[harsh goblet]

Damn... I need money then lol

[echo cargo]

Yeap I added a lot of markers on the map... But it's the first one I try to add just after the patch...

[vestal harbor]

might be a cohincidence

[vestal harbor]

maybe you reach limit

[forest heart]

1. it wasn't 32gb the actual patch was only 500mb ish (The rest would have been file checking) 2) What do you mean by the animals are glitching? 3) I assume you mean water wells and what wells are you referring to? The ones you've placed or the ones in the 'wild' ?

[echo cargo]

Maybe... I just opened a ticket...wait & see.

[vestal harbor]

aight

[upper mica]

yeah the goats are not walking anymore like they used to. They literally glitching (getting stuck every step, if i place them somewhere else the move like robots) , and yes my own wells i placed. They always have been on the same place but they now say "refill" and i cant take water of them.

[forest heart]

I'm not sure i've seen anyone mention the farm animals acting like that yet, but i'd certainly suggest submitting a bug report with F1 in game. As for the wells, freshly placed they do need about 5 minutes to 'fill' which they added in the update and todays patch changed how they work in the wild, so there may be a knockon effect from that, try picking them up and putting them back down again, wait the five minutes or so and see if you can gather from them.

[harsh goblet]

Even so, it's really weird that my computer only gets 30 fps bc this game have some unpolished aspects like the shadows and other stuff... The graphics aren't that much elaborated also. But I guess the voxels and physics makes it become very heavy indeed.

[supple mica]

thats it... it's the nature of how it is done.

[forest heart]

The voxels are very taxing, even on the best of systems.

[harsh goblet]

It makes sense

[upper mica]

yeah i did that with the wells, ill wait then. Just hope i can get water to produce farm plants xD Thanks for the help and feedback tho

[supple mica]

voxel games require more... things may get better with time as they optimize... but I can see it getting worse before it gets better, with them adding more to it.

[forest heart]

I hope it works as well! If it doesn't work this time, i'd possibly suggest building another well or two and placing them in another flames location just to see if it works. ^^

[north fox]

Today's patch had me lower my graphics so it definitely is rough, lol.

[upper mica]

good point

[supple mica]

going to have to load it up when I get home and see whats up.

[forest heart]

Aside from a couple of disappearing placeables (The cook fire and the animal feeders) Which returned after a relog, i haven't had any 'new' issues since the patch.

[woeful prism]

Hello. Since todays update i cant use the twitchdrop cosmetic anymore. It says that i have not unlocked it. I claimed and used it already, now i cant use it anymore. What do?

[silk junco]

Hello folks does anybody know what the triggeres for Albaneve are as my daughter has compleated the quests but been unable to unlock the flame prompt to go to albaneve, is the a specific quest that unlocks the message or do the hollowed halls need to be compleated before she gets the message to go to the mountains,

[fallen tide]

Updated my game for the new patch, and still can't get the game to load me into a world, the problem I was having before the patch but after the newest update

[near granite]

Is there a way to make the game brighter (setting)? I can hardly see anything in most dungeons / caves and flare arrows aren't reliable (aside from the flickering issue).

[south gulch]

hello, my friend is trying to join on my game, but today it kept saying server is full or unavailable , any ideas ?

[celest dragon]

does anyone know how to keep tamed animals fenced? i tried a stone fence and it legit walks right through it

my other tamed animal just disappeared completely

[prisma tendon]

Thanks, will open a support ticket. Apologies if I was a bit snarky. I really love the game, have played through twice since day one of early access and have invested hundreds of hours of build and play time. I really appreciate the hard work and dedication of you and the Keen crew and look forward to playing again soon!

Also noticed a weird bug. When Balthazar the Alchemist wakes up and stands up he vanishes! Have to use the staff to bring him back each time. Anyone else having this issue?

[steep siren]

is there a way to use the twitch drops without being connected to the internet?

like i have them in game but when i wear them offline im basically naked

[celest dragon]

how do you even find them? i just play single player offline but i havent found them

[steep siren]

these are the twitch drops you get them from watching twitch, the other cosmetics youll start to find quests for them at some point

[celest dragon]

i mean i got the outfit and gnome from twitch but i cant find them in the game

[steep siren]

oh okay so once you get into game hit esc, then down under join discord it should say twitch drops youll find them there

[celest dragon]

ahhh tyty

[steep siren]

np

[pseudo wigeon]

Yes, that's right. The wisp potion light only shows me the near environment, around 1 meters.
Advanced wax torch shows me 3 meters light radius.

The strange thing is, that screenshotsh of my screen show the area lighter, which I could not process. 😄

Have you tried to use fullscreen all the time?

[dusty venture]

Yes, the only method I've found is turning my second monitor off but its completely fine with every other game i have, this is the only game this happens on. that's why i figured in something with the game but at this point i don't know hahaha

[novel ether]

Hi all! Is anyone having trouble with their hypothermia countdown since the latest patch? everything was fine before, and now despite my stats and armour giving me 13 mins, best I get is 6, and the countdown is really erratic, it ticks along nicely and then jumps down by like a minute, then back up randomly. Wondering if it is just me

[fallen tide]

trying to get into the game, but it sits there loading for ever, i left it to load while i made some food, came back after 20 minutets and still nothing. pressing f1 to report a bug does nothing. and its using over 50% of my cpu. any help? i dont know what to do to get it to work. ive changed my setting to as low as i can get it.. when i lanch the game it goes to character menu and then i load my privet game save, then it sits there.

[celest dragon]

anyone have ideas?

[zinc oak]

Ah. Sorry - I went Well the game is still in Early Access, which means some features, including accessibility features, have not been added yet. Since there isn't chat though, presumably anyone who would have a keyboard in another language would presumably know that language and the key translations, *and *you are only talking about tooltips, this falls under more of a "polish up at the end" kind of thing.

I would suggest that if you haven't already submitted a bug report from inside the game, hit F1 and do so So that they are aware of the issue for sure, especially since it seems to be a rather niche issue. If you have, I would just be patient. They are currently working on adding all the content the game will need to be released as well as fixing major bugs.

If they haven't added it closer to release, when they start doing the polishing up, then I would start to get concerned about it, and start to make some noise, but until then just remember that you are playing an incomplete game.

[zinc oak]

Yeah. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news there. No one likes to hear that stuff. ♥

[zinc oak]

Take a video of this happening and send it with a bug report by hitting F1 from inside the game. If you don't have shadowplay or some other video capturing software, OBS is a free software that is dependable.

[zinc oak]

This is happening after applying the update from this morning?

[zinc oak]

At what point is it stalling out?

[near granite]

You've the fences on blocks or on terrain? 🤔 Mine seem to respect it so far (it's on building blocks).

[zinc oak]

Just jumping in late here. So just to be sure I understand it correctly - the light from the wisp lamps is extremely dim on one monitor while not being so on your other one?

[dusty venture]

no thats a different guy im having an issue where my mouse isnt constrained to the game. ill be looking around with character and my mouse will go to my second screen and if i go to swing a sword ill click on the second screen causing me to not control my character anymore

[zinc oak]

This is happening when you are in movement mode, and not just when you have a menu open?

[dusty venture]

yes

[celest dragon]

Yes, i have a stone fence pen and they walk through it

[zinc oak]

Hmm... Did you adjust your camera movement in the game in any way or change any keybinds at all?

[zinc oak]

Can you take a picture of the fench they are walking through and post it in here?

[dusty venture]

@zinc oak I have tried resetting all setting keybinds and reinstalling the game

[zinc oak]

Does the mouse movement still move your camera?

[dusty venture]

yes till i click on the other screen. im attempting to send a video from my phone but its too large of a file

[zinc oak]

Don't worry, I understand. 🙂 and you said this happened whether you were fullscreen or in windowed mode?

[dusty venture]

yes

[zinc oak]

Sorry - just making sure. 🙂 Alright now to the meaty bits - Are you using any of the following: recording software or mouse customization software (like razer synapse),

[dusty venture]

nope no software or mouse customization. but this only happens in this one game so its super weird its happening

[zinc oak]

Every game interacts with drivers and software differently. One of the things that is different from this game than likely a lot of the other games you play is that it uses vulkan to interact with the drivers instead of directX - which can change a lot of things.

[dusty venture]

ahhh ok

[zinc oak]

As for troubleshooting - could you open your mouse settings for me (control panel>mouse>pointer options) and tell me whether "enchance pointer precision" is turned on or off?

[dusty venture]

it is off

[zinc oak]

Just to be sure - your mouse is able to access the entirety of the secondary screen, not just a portion of it, right?

And it happens 100% of the time, not just when the game seems to lose focus?

[dusty venture]

yes treat is as you entered your inventory but moved the pointer to the second screen, but in my case i can do it while moving character.

yes all the time

[zinc oak]

Okay that rules out a few things...

[dusty venture]

yea its super weird

[zinc oak]

The only things I can think of is that possibly an overlay (steam, discord, geforce experience) is messing with your screen constraints or it's a driver issue of some kind.

I would make sure that you have the most recent mouse drivers as well as GPU drivers and disable each overlay one-by-one to see if that solves the issue. Other than that, you might have to look into a 3rd party software like "Curser lock" if we can't find the cause of it.

[dusty venture]

hmmm ok yea i checked drivers for everything but the overlays i havnt so ill give that a try

[zinc oak]

It's also possible it's a strange and relatively rare bug in the game. If you haven't already - take that video and attach it to a bug report by hitting F1 from in the game so that the devs are aware of the issue - just in case.

Include everything we talked about and what you tried to do to resolve it as well.

[dusty venture]

well i took it from my phone to show both screens so how would i send that video to them is it just email? its too large of a video to send on email

[zinc oak]

Hmm... It might be possible that OBS or another software might be able to capture both screens and be able to compile it better. It's worth a try. Also let me know if disabling one of the overlays (or anything else you try) fixed the issue so we know here in case it comes up again for someone else. 🙂

[dusty venture]

ok i will let you know thank you

[zinc oak]

Anytime. Sorry we weren't able to find a solution right now - I am hoping the overlays might be it, because otherwise that goes outside the realm of what I know. ♥

[dusty venture]

i appreciate you

[fallen tide]

when i go to join a world. doesnt matter if its my own save or someone elses server. it wont load me into a world

[zinc oak]

Have you already verified your game files on steam?

[fallen tide]

ive got 48 hours in the game, do i need to reverify my files after the new update? ive uninstalled my game and reinstalled.

[zinc oak]

You don't have to do it after each update or anything. Verifying files is pretty much the first thing you do when any issues present themselves in a game.

[fallen tide]

ill try that and report back

[fallen tide]

verified just fine, but no change

[solemn knot]

yeah common problem lol

[prisma tendon]

Hello all. I have a Ticket/Bug Report Number. Is there any way to track the progress of the support ticket, maybe through a web page or some other means? Thanks.

[zinc oak]

What are your system specs?

I am unaware of this issue, but you might have better luck asking in #server-support - we don't really cover server iossues over here so they might have an idea of what is going on.

[zinc oak]

Not that I am aware of, no - but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

[fallen tide]

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7400 CPU @ 3.00GHz 3.00 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB

[zinc oak]

I have been in here since march helping people with troubleshooting issues and haven't heard one thing about it - but as I said, it's a server thing, so maybe they have.

[zinc oak]

and GPU?

they said they had to remake the charactor each time on co-op, not that they couldn't load the game.

If you make a new character do you still have a loading issue?

not they - you specifically.

[fallen tide]

nvidia geforce gxt 1060 3gb

[zinc oak]

I want to help you with your issue not help a generic, possibly unrelated issue.

Okay ine second. I stepped away to start dinner and think I may have mixed up some issues. let me go back and read.

[zinc oak]

Yours could be related to the fact that your GPU is under spec. The game requires at least 6GB VRAM and yours has 3. At the very least it's not helping the issue.

[serene ice]

My friend is having the exact same issue. Same graphics card too

probably the Vram but it was working fine early on in the EA

[near granite]

Min requirement is the 6gb version of the 1060 and that one works without issues.

[zinc oak]

Is one person having this issue, or everyone?

[serene ice]

2 so far it seems

understandably the game is more complex now but as I say it used to work great

[near granite]

One can be lucky with such things, but depending on what was changed it might no longer work.

[zinc oak]

Are some people able to play without issue, and is the same person always hosting?

[serene ice]

I think the issue is the same regardless of MP host or in SP

the game gets to the loading screen and just never gets any further

[zinc oak]

Sorry trying not to confuse things, that was a reply to someone else.

or are you one of the people he's talking about?

[serene ice]

yes indeed. just living in hope a future patch sorts it 🙂

[zinc oak]

Just to be sure - relatively how far apart are you guys from eachother?

[serene ice]

I know this isn't to me but: We are within 30 miles

but it isn''t a network issue as single player does the same.

[zinc oak]

With components that are below specs, it's unlikely that a patch will fix things. It's a very old GPU, and because of it being below specs we can't really rule out that it's not what is causing the issue.

[serene ice]

oh it is absolutely the issue but I would imagine that optimization might help somewhere down the line

[zinc oak]

Okay. I just wanted to rule out any possible connectivity issues. I just want to verify that I have all the info correct. So you are saying that when you play co-op with eachother, whoever isn't hosting the game is stalling out during loading every time except when they make a new character. Do I have that right?

[prisma tendon]

I suspect that I'd have to a registered Enshrouded user at Zendesk, which only the devs would be. I'll just have to wait for an email reply.

[near granite]

The game isn't going to vanish and maybe at some point a new graphics card is an option for you. 🙂 While not for Enshrouded I've to "upgrade" mine too due to issues with other games.

[zinc oak]

well thats... strange.

The change implies that it's a problem outside the game - but at the same time it's happening to 4 different people with 4 completely different systems...

[serene ice]

yeah that is an option but unfortunately in this money is the real issue. Graphics cards don't come cheap

[near granite]

Although it seems like they got the "location crashes" out of the game. Not getting my hopes up yet, but so far the game seems to behave in that regard.

[zinc oak]

Ah right... lol. You were crashing at the Mark of Sammath iirc. lol

[fallen tide]

but i use to be able to play a couple updates ago?

[near granite]

Not only there. 😅 I did a quick check on a few of the spots with update 4 and so far it's looking good.

[zinc oak]

well - just because many people are having the same issue doesn't necessarily mean that the issue is programmatical in nature. It could be that everyone having the issue has the same 3rd party software or the same video driver. It's hard to nail down exactly - which is why I have to treat every issue independantly.

[zinc oak]

Nice! 🙂 I'll keep my fingers crossed 🙂

[solemn knot]

I'm one of the people that is in the group with @fathom bear, I have a 3070TI, I7-12700kf, 32GB ddr4 Ram and a 1kwatt PSU. I also have very fast internet speed with ethernet connection. The whole group have good PC's, so we don't get why its broken lmao. @zinc oak. And there are reddit posts and others out there having those issues with no fix for the span of months. I could link them if the Dev team would like?

i enjoy the game, we all do. It's just an annoying problem.

[zinc oak]

The dev team doesn't actually spend too much time in here (or reddit). Honestly the best thing everyone can do is send all the details in a bug report from inside the game so that the devs have that information (include all the system specs and any information you guys feel is relevant).

And it is annoying. I am sorry you guys are having it. 😦

[solemn knot]

Gotcha, I'll send a bug report in game to see if that'll help.

[zinc oak]

Good - the more info they have increases the liklihood that they can find whatever is causing it.

[near granite]

Put in everything including logs, system specs, driver versions and so on. There can't be "too much information".

[zinc oak]

Especially something like this. It's very specific, but could be caused by so many different things - and many people are out there having no issues while some people always have the issue.

[solemn knot]

Seems like the friend of ours that cant join the Main world can join the Original host's freshly made world

so it could just be a bug with the actual world save?

[near granite]

Also add to the report if single player works for you for example.

[zinc oak]

Have you guys been trading around the same save when you switch hosts?

[solemn knot]

i connect to the main one fine. ill add it all into the post

@zinc oak No, we all played on a singular character on that specific hosts (@fathom bear) Original First world.

Never used our "group" saves on any other ones.

[zinc oak]

OH - sorry I was under the impression this happened no matter who hosted the game.

Yes it's very possible that it could be a world corruption.

[solemn knot]

I'll send it all in with a bug report through the game, thanks for the help. And a world corruption is what im thinking it's.

[near granite]

And you're not having a backup from before it happened I guess. 😦

[zinc oak]

You guys let me know if you start having problems with the new save - or even if you don't. I would very much like to know how it turns out, and maybe have the info up here in my crusty head as a possible solution when others come in.

Actually: Does any of you actually remember what the last thing was you guys did before the issue started? 🤔 Like for example "We planted 20.000 bushes" or whatever.

If so: Might add it too.

[solemn knot]

We were just playing normally and decided to get off for the night. Played the next evening and one of us couldn't connect out've nowhere.

but was a good mention, thanks

[solemn knot]

me hosting on a new world worked for a while, he eventually lagged out when his internet spiked and the same issue is occuring again. I'll just wait for a patch tbh, but hope my bug reports help at least

[deft spire]

rtx 3070ti + i5-13600k
why is the game not going above 20 fps for me

GPU usage 100%

[cold basin]

Good Morning, I have a "little" problem. ```

• I had over the last weeks every time after I played a small download on Steam "Shader-Pre-Caching-Update", no problems here.
• After yesterdays playtime I got an error massage in Steam, Screenshot 1.
• Since then the game tries to repair itself all the time, Screenshot 2.
• This repeats endlessly.
  (Screenshots are in German, in case you wondering.)``` Has anyone a fix for this, without me loosing the progress of over 400 hours playtime?

[zinc oak]

GPU usage at 100% isn't necesserilly a bad thing. It means that it's not being bottlenecked and being fully utilized - However you should not be getting only 20FPS with that GPU. Are you currently running it in 4K? (3840X2160)?

[deft spire]

i am running at 1440p

at the starting area

and even in the near cave fps isnt going above 40

using balanced preset

[zinc oak]

What is your CPU and RAM on your system?

[zinc oak]

Forgive me - but can you tell me what the error message says there?

[deft spire]

i5-13600k + 32gb ddr5 4800mhz

[zinc oak]

Yeah, you shouldn't be getting framerates like that. Is this in a new world or an established one?

[deft spire]

this is a new world that i just created locally

i will restart my pc

[cold basin]

"Beschädigte Inhaltsdateien" from the first screenshot translates to "Corrupted content files"

[zinc oak]

A good idea. If it continues I would verify your files on steam and make sure your GPU drivers are up to date.

[zinc oak]

Have you also tried verifying your files, and it continues after?

[cold basin]

This is the second process (Screenshot 2), that starts automaticly after the error massage.

[zinc oak]

That is steam doing it automatically, though, right? Or was that started manually?

[cold basin]

Automatically, but it should be the same process. I try it manually

[zinc oak]

Before you do...

I would just clear steams download cache first just to make sure nothing there is screwing up. You can do this in steam > settings > Downloads > "Clear Download Cache"

Steam will need to restart - then I would verify the files.

[cold basin]

Okay! I'll try that and give feedback as soon as I have results.

[zinc oak]

Sounds good! 🙂 Hope it works, but if not we can still troubleshoot a bit more.

[near granite]

If it's singleplayer: C:/Benutzer/Nutzer/Gespeicherte Spiele if you save local. I don't know where it's saved when using Steam Cloud. Might make a backup of the Enshrouded folder.

[cold basin]

Still the same problem. :<

[zinc oak]

Okay. The next step would be to completely uninstall the game and also remove the folder in the file system. This might delete your save, so you'll want to make a copy of your save folder first before doing this. It's possible that one of the game files is sitting on a bad section of your drive.

[cold basin]

Oh, nasty one. I cant do a Steam Backup, because I need to do the Update first. Well, new installation it is... Is this Maps and Chars or just one of it?

[zinc oak]

All save files are located in the same folder. For local save files:
..\Users\%username%\Saved Games\Enshrouded
For cloud save files:
..\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[YourSteamID]\1203620\remote
YourSteamID is your unique Steam ID number

[cold basin]

Thanks! I give backup after reinstall. 🙂

[zinc oak]

Oh, we don't need the backup, you'll want to back it up before deleting the folder if it's a cloud save.

Just in case steam cloud decides to mess up, as it's wont to do.

[trim locust]

I see the quests are supposed to auto

The telepad that your fast travel on to will take you to the bottom, however the one at the bottom never takes you to the top - but to the puzzle room.

That's the problem: You fast travel to the "flame altar" and not to a pad there.

[cold basin]

Thanks for the Help! The Character and World data is still there and the game is running perfectly fine after the reinstallation.

[zinc oak]

Glad to hear it! I would go ahead and run a CHKDSK on your drive when you have some time to make sure you don't have a bad sector. It should quarentine it if you do, which will prevent another game or something else from trying to use it and having issues.

[trim locust]

Thanks for your reply. A game restart

[cold basin]

I think it's because I upgraded my PC a few month ago and just packed in my old SSD, with all the old data on it. I wasn't in the mood to reinstall all my games, so I just let them on the old drive. Now I have installed Enshrouded on the new SSD. I assume it was just complications because I didn't installed it again the right way. ^^

[zinc oak]

Yeah games these days pretty much all require they be run on an SSD.

[trim locust]

Hi there, idk if its just me but the

[zinc oak]

I think it's actually in the requirements for the game. lol

Though I don't think it would have caused the issue you were having alone - it's likely that drive does have a bad sector or might be on it's way out, so you might want to back up whatever is on it.

[cold basin]

Na, the only difference is the speed of saving and reading data. The problem was I didn't had the old SSD as "D:" again, its now "G:" and a new Motherboard and CPU, GPU and so on. I think there where some problems with steam and getting the data in the right way. ^^

And the loading screen is magically not 10 minutes anymore and just a few seconds again. So basically, I'm just a dumba** who should know it better. XD

[trim locust]

Hello folks does anybody know what the

Updated my game for the new patch, and

does anyone know how to keep tamed

[wet karma]

Hey, guys!

I’m trying to move save files from one Steam account to another. Well, kind of.

I’m playing with my female friend via Nucleus Coop and it is, basically, creates a “fake” Steam account(s) (not really, it is just the game files) in order to play. I think NucleusCoop utilizes GoldBerg or something like that.

I want to claim Twitch Drops on my main Steam account (where I bought the game and using it to play games; I do have the drops) for those characters, so I want to transfer the characters from those accounts to my main one.

The thing is, I did figure out the folder with save files, however… NucleusCoop’s save files for Enshrouded is kinda filled with a bunch of files, and I‘m not sure why so many.

I do have only one world and one character on my first account in NucleusCoop, and my friend has only one character too.

Why (if you know) I have so many files (maybe this is game related, not Nucleus Coop) and what should I move exactly?

P.S: I also messaged Enshrouded team via email, but I think they didn’t get it (maybe a bug on the website) or if they did, they might not provide support since it’s “modding” related. Maybe I’m wrong though 😦

[trim locust]

Hi all! Is anyone having trouble with

[zinc oak]

I don't believe the dev team has a specified email address for issues.

but the files you are seeing there are backups of saves.

[wet karma]

Now that I think about it, I have an idea what this is might happening: maybe each time I play via Nucleus Coop, it duplicates the files? I’m gonna test it out right now.

[wet karma]

So the ones without the number like “characters” are the ones I need?

[zinc oak]

This is normal behaviour for the game. it has 10 backups of every save, each of those is a backup, and which one is what is in the index files.

I would copy them all over to be safe. They are not numbered the way you think they should be, the next one overwrites the oldest.

So it could be that your most recent save is _1 and _3 and the same for the character files.

[wet karma]

Do I understand it right that the most up-to-date files are the ones with “index”?

[zinc oak]

The dates tell you most of it, but a lot of that information is saved in the index file, so unless you don't want the most recent save on there, it's best to just copy them all.

[zinc oak]

No. lol

[wet karma]

I do want the recent saves (characters/worlds), just to add Twitch Drops to those characters on my main Steam account.

[wet karma]

Damn, I’m confused 😦

Sorry, maybe I did’t get enough sleep 😦

[zinc oak]

lol just add them all. the index files should sort it out.

[wet karma]

OK, thanks 😄

So do I understand it right that the game creates up to 10 backup files and “index” ones are the ones that “manage” them, like it decides what file is the most recent and should be used in the game?

[zinc oak]

yeah.

[wet karma]

Got it, thanks again! That dot at the end is kinda scary though, ahhahaah

I will try to test Twitch Drops thing, hopefully it works!

[zinc oak]

sorry, I am old. I like my punctuation.

[wet karma]

I do think they do, there’s an email form.

[wet karma]

No worries, me too.

[wet karma]

Fixed, lmfao 😄

[zinc oak]

But yeah - as I mentioned on reddit (yup, that was me. xD) - I am not sure if the twitch drops will work on that second account. I know - at least with one of them - if the steam account didn't have the twitch drops, the person couldn't wear them even if they had them in the inventory.

[wet karma]

@zinc oak, may I ask one more question? I’ve seen people sharing the save folder location and they attached screenshots to the messages — all of these posts have only 3 files in the save folder (without numbers, basically). Is there some tinfoil level conspiracy (like they didn’t play the game or something) or there’s something else going on?

Example from Google Search

[zinc oak]

They just figured out which was the most recent save so people don't have to download excess saves.

[wet karma]

Oh, wow, damn. That’s kinda sad. I hope it works because if it’s not, then… damn… maybe the devs might do something about it, though I bet it’s insanely low priority (like who the f plays Enshrouded in split-screen).

[zinc oak]

I hadn't heard of this software till you mentioned it today. xD

[wet karma]

Yeah, probably, because I found this screenshot, haha

[wet karma]

Oh, it is amazing, highly recommend!

Allows to play many games locally even if they didn’t have native support like Enshrouded.

[zinc oak]

At first I thought it was some kind of cheat software that bypassed licensing. Had to look it up 😄

[wet karma]

Nah, it’s 100% legit

Actually, I plan to make a short video explaining how it works. Though people need a beefy machine to run two instances of Enshrouded, damn.

Gonna try the Twitch Drops thing right now

[wet karma]

wtf, my save files didn’t transfer

@zinc oak do you have any idea why my save files do not appear in the game? I just copied all save files from the Nucleus Coop folder. [New Folder] in Nucleus Coop is a temporary folder where I put my old saves from the real Steam account.

[zinc oak]

Try making a character and then re copying the files over. It can get weird if it's not replacing data

[wet karma]

Got it, gonna try it now, thanks!

[wet karma]

1. Created a new character
2. Opened the game — same character, my save files do not appear: no character, no world
3. Deleted all the files
4. Moved the Nucleus Coop files gain to the save folder
5. Opened the game — no characters at all, it’s empty

[zinc oak]

Yeah - not too sure about that. You are sure they are being placed in the right folder?

[wet karma]

Yeah, I mean you can see it on the screenshots, I’m sure it’s the right folder — the old real Steam files are there

I’ll try something else: will try to restore aforementioned old Steam files (just did, I see my old character), and will now selectively move NucleusCoop files, maybe it’ll work

Doesn’t work T_T

@zinc oak, yeah, moving save files doesn’t work at all. I’ve tried adding additional the most recent files — nothing appeared. I’ve tried replcaing the files I had in the folder already — no characters at all, just empty “Play” screen.

What can be the issue? Maybe the game doesn’t allow transfering save files between different Steam accounts?

[zinc oak]

The game allows it, but it can be finicky. There used to be a file somewhere that explained how it all works, and maybe help you figure out what is going on (the save stuff isn't really my forte, and I have holes in my knowledge)

[wet karma]

I’ve checked NexusMods — there are some save files people share with each other, so it should work. I’ll try downloading those save files to see if they work.

[zinc oak]

https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1233539692591448166

[wet karma]

Holly Molly, saint guacamole, that’s a lot of reading, damn. Well, gotta do it, I guess T_T

[wet karma]

F this. I like the game, but the devs clearly smoked something here. I’ve been playing games for my entire life and I’ve never seen such a convoluted system.

Moreover by doing this save files juggling you can F up your Cloud Saves:

I’ve tried to clear my Cloud Saves by playing locally (disabled Cloud Saves) then deleting all save files in the “remote” folder, AND put all local files from “Saved Games” folder to “remote” folder — the system didn’t offer me “Out of Sync — what you wanna do: sync local or download cloud files?” option, so now I have a homunculus of local and cloud files. I’ve tried removing a world and a character from the game, but the files are still there. There’s a chance (maybe a small one, but still a chance), that it can go haywire. Check my attached screenshot.

Link to the steps I followed: https://new.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/11fnkjg/dear_god_how_to_delete_cloud_save_in_steam_so_the.

I can see the world I created locally and the one I had while playing with cloud saves enabled — which is, actually, the one I downloaded from NexusMods and manage to load into the game somehow. I still have zero clue how it works even after reading that massive PDF file (wtf!) — massive kudos to the person who wrote it anyway.

Anyway, I just abandoned the idea of getting my Twitch Drops to my save files from Nucleus Coop because the game’s save files are made in such a janky crazily bad way that it is impossible to do even for regular players who want to BACKUP their own files or transfer them from another device — god forbid from another Steam user.

I really-really hope won’t get offended by this feedback, because I had no intention to do so — they cooked a great game, but their save system is complete bonkers. It’s a mess and people write 11 pages PDF files so others can just have a chance of making it work.

Devs, if you see this, please implement a save files transfer system, I beg you! 🥲

Once again, my apologies for some somewhat obscene words (“F this, F that”) — I’ve just spent a couple of hours for nothing because I wanted to get a fluffy cute clothes from Twitch Drops I own for myself and my female friend to play with.

[zinc oak]

The backup system was added in after most of the base programming was developed and the game had already been in EA for a few months. I have a feeling they were just trying to get something to work. Also keep in mind that unlike most games out there, Enshrouded has a bespoke engine - so it's not using Unreal or anything like that.

I am not sure why, exactly, they felt they needed the backup system, nor do I know if they plan to keep it that way, but most people don't really need to deal with it, so I am not sure it's a priority at this time.

My guess is that the problem you are having has something to do with the NucleusCoop. The system is slightly janky and a little convoluted, but if you followed the directions in that post, it should have worked.

Especially with the cloud saves turned off.

I have nothing against their backup system — I think it is a good idea because if something goes haywire then users will have a backup. Not sure how they will restore that backup, but, well, anyway.

You are right that most people won’t even talk about save files, but it is still important to make a system manageable in my humble opinion — people might have different situations and the current system just does not allow you to copy-paste files like almost every other game on the planet. That’s the issue, not how backup system works. Even the fact that save files have the identical names for all players and are not named after the world’s name or character’s names, even this is fine — the issue is another thing.

My guess is that the problem you are having has something to do with the NucleusCoop. The system is slightly janky and a little convoluted, but if you followed the directions in that post, it should have worked.

No, that is not the issue. NucleusCoop save files are identical to the ones in “remote” folder — because they are located in a NucleusCoop’s “remote” folder since it emulates Steam behavior. Again, NucleusCoop doesn’t do anything out of the ordinary — it launches “local” instances.

The issue is deeper and is related to everyone: the system is just bonkers and very poorly made — it’s not just copy-paste, but do 42 steps in order to maybe make it work. The PDF file itself, basically, states this.

[zinc oak]

Out of curiosity - you said that when you made a character earlier, it still propted you to make a character again the next time you loaded, am I correct in that? It sounds like perhaps it's not able to access the saves at all.

[wet karma]

Can you elaborate?

Not sure what you mean.

[zinc oak]

You made a character earlier then moved the saves over. The next time you went in you said it asked you to make another character?

[wet karma]

Initially before reading PDF? Yes, because I just copied over the files from my NucleusCoop “remote” folder — as you told me.

As I’ve said, it doesn’t work like that in this game. We cannot just copy-paste the files and call it a day. There’s a reason why PDF file has 11 pages.

The system is convoluted to an insane level — I do not understand why. I don’t know why they just didn’t allow people to copy-paste the files, that would solve all the issues.

[zinc oak]

Also you have to keep in mind, this is not a complete game (it's easy to forget with how well a lot of things are done sometimes).

[zinc oak]

Okay - let's test it. Clear out that nucleus save folder and create a character and world and jump in and play. Leave the game and go in again. If there is no save there, then the issue is that nucleus, for whatever reason, is not actually seeing the saves.

[wet karma]

Sure, I do not — I’ve mentioned a few times that the game is great, however, it is a fact that the save system in this game is “broken”, it’s very convoluted. We can use Early Access label as an excuse, and, hopefully, it is an excuse, so the game on launch will have a decent and proper save system like every other game.

[wet karma]

WDYM there’s no save there?

[zinc oak]

I can't troubleshoot that, am just a player, and have no control over it, so it's all just words at me at this point. lets see if we can't figure out why you are having the issue though instead. 🙂

[wet karma]

Also why should I clear NucleusCoop save folder? I’ve been trying to transfer those saves to original version (let’s call it that).

[zinc oak]

We need to see if nucleus is having problems accessing the save files that are there. Don't clear your original saves, just the saves to the place you are trying to copy to - so that we have a completely clean slate - and then see if it can access the save that it makes itself.

[wet karma]

Please do not use this emoji — it is very passive-aggressive (I’m sure you didn’t intend it this way, so FYI).

I do appreciate your help, but as you have said you do not know how it works yourself. I did go through the various instructions on NexusMods (for those save files people are sharing) and read PDF file — I just gave up at the end because it is a shit ton of work, and there’s still a chance it won’t work. Well, it didn’t.

Maybe I can make it work, but I’m not willing to spend another 3 hours just to do so for the sake of getting Twitch Drops in those characters’ inventory.

I’m sure you agree that the fact that we cannot copy-paste save files is bad (like in every other game). There’s a lot of manipulations required (like join a game, create a world, stay in it for a couple of minutes, leave the game, rename the file, etc, ec, etc).

[thin temple]

Now they have made it rain ingame - I still don't get why we don't get a water reservoir for our plants now all the time we have to fetch water bottles to that well - If yet so an NPC are still allowed to replenish water on a plantation - currently they don't do anything anyway ✌️

[wet karma]

That’s a neat idea. I’m still in the very early game, so I’m far off those plants mechanics, but will be great if the dev implement such a system.

[zinc oak]

Ah, well in that case I can't help you, and the devs don't really read this stuff, so your words are wasted on ears that can do nothing about it. You are welcome to submit a bug report about it in the game, but considering a third party software is involved, and we haven't been able to rule it out, they might not be able to do much about it.

As for the rest, the best place for that would be their suggestions page located here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Enshrouded/comments/1gwwase/suggestions/

[wet karma]

Sure, thanks for the help. I will leave them a suggestion. Again, I’m 99% sure NucleusCoop has nothing to do with it since it just “emulates” Steam, so it creates a local Enshrouded save file “remote” folder. The issue is with the fact how the save files work (hello, 11 pages PDF). Well, maybe I’m wrong — there’s 1% chance still.

If somehow it gets figured out then I will share the info here. Maybe the devs will even reply to my email (if they got it, ofc 🥲).

[trim locust]

Is this NucleosCoop some external tool?

[zinc oak]

Enter the dev to prove me wrong. 🤣

[trim locust]

We really have to do a lot of work and I can't interact every time

[zinc oak]

From what I understand it's a program that emulates steam a second time to allow for split-screen playing of coop games.

[trim locust]

I only skimmed through your conversation, apparently local saves isn't an option?

[zinc oak]

@wet karma you still around to answer?

[wet karma]

Yeah, I’m here

[wet karma]

It is a tool that, basically, allows to play games in split-screen.

[wet karma]

WDYM by local saves?

Basically, the issue is that we cannot copy-paste the save files. It just doesn’t work this way with the current save system (for some reason).

Here’s the message that explains it all (imo).

[trim locust]

before you continue

[zinc oak]

I think he's looking for the cliff-notes version.

[zinc oak]

Ah, thank you ♥ 😄

You'll want to reply in that thread, @wet karma

[wet karma]

The left image is the “remote” folder (save files) for the original version (let’s call it that) — it’s the same for everyone who has Cloud Saves enabled.

The right image is the “remote” folder for NucleusCoop version (I call it a version, but it uses original files and all, just some magic to launch 2–3+ instances of the game at once).

As you can see I’ve tried moving over the files and it didn’t work.

The same will happen if another Steam user shares his “remote” folder with me — it won’t work either.

[wet karma]

Oh, thanks

[wet karma]

To anyone who read my cacaphony above: I did solve the issue, managed to import my Nucleus Coop saves into the original version of the game (let’s call it that) and claim Twitch Drops, and add them to the inventory — however, they do not work in Nucleus Coop since it uses “fake“ Steam accounts.

As for how to run Enshrouded via Nucleus Coop and play in split-screen — I will make a step-by-step video later!

Don’t mind a hoard of gnomes, lol.

Have a great week everyone! Thank to Kall and Mama Kira for all the help!

Hello, there is a problem with the friezes during panel flipping, hand strikes and when opening the airframe and hook. I'll attach the video, I forgot to show the lag with the hook ((( regardless of the game settings. Computer parameters: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400F 2.50 GHz processor, 32GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Video Card, Windows 11 Pro, Driver Ver.: 566.14, Installation Drive: SSD 1TB XPG Gammix s50 Lite

[zinc oak]

This is almost always because you have the game and steam installed on seperate drives or aren't using an SSD.

the game and steam are on 1 SSD

[hushed stag]

I just got kicked from my friends server and now when I try to log back in I'm stuck on the loading screen, is there a solution for this?

[shrewd leaf]

Good morning, everyone, Happy Friday! I need help with my sister's game before she rage quits and beats her computer to death. She's lit all the Balefires and gotten the quest to kill the Fell Dragon, but it's just not spawning. After she lit the Balefires in her world, we all went to our other sister's world to kill her dragon and when we went back to her world to take care of hers, it was gone and the quest was cleared from her quest log. Yet when I go in her world, it still registers that it's a live quest on my end. This was prior to the patch yesterday, but last night the dragon was still missing from her world. Does anyone know what in the name of Embervale is going on? Should we just submit a ticket to Keen and hope that the Powers That Be can fix it or does some Pure Soul know a fix?

[zinc oak]

Yeah submit a ticket. In this case, it sounds like it might be a bug with the quest personalization.

[forest heart]

I've heard this a couple of times now, but haven't seen a specific fix. I'd always recommend submitting bug reports in such cases so at the very least the team know of the issue. When you say the quest has gone on her world, does her character not have access to the quest at all? It's not in the 'completed' section and not any of the active quests?

[shrewd leaf]

@forest heart The quest is just gone, like she never finished lighting the Balefires. It's very strange, but we'll just submit a ticket, thank you!

[forest heart]

Strange indeed!

[shrewd leaf]

Thanks, will do! I appreciate the feedback, have a great weekend!

[shrewd leaf]

Thank you, we'll get a ticket submitted. Have a great weekend!

[forest heart]

You too ^^

[zinc oak]

Oh - are the balefires in her world unlit again? Do you know if she checked?

because if the quest were completed the dragon should respawn when the area resets. Since it's not there, perhaps she needs to relight all of them to get it to come back?

[shrewd leaf]

Ooh, that might be it. She's at work now, and won't be home until after 10p tonight. She said she'll check on that ASAP. I'll post an update when we find that out. Thank you!

[forest heart]

True, good thought.

[soft rune]

Hi everyone, so whenever i try to join my friend's server, a black loading screen just appears, and its every single time. On release we played, and everything worked fine, but now theres just an infinite loading screen.... Any suggestions on what to do from here. I have tried almost anyting i think, reinstalling, running as admin, toggle windows security, lower ingame settings to absolute minimum, having my friend remove password, giving enshrouded more RAM's - help pls

[forest heart]

Is it P2P or a dedicated server?
Have you tried playing your own solo (private) game?
What are your system specs?

[soft rune]

dedicated, its free from his pc, and he has like the best avaliable internet, so that in itself cannot be the issue. Also another friend is already on there and had no trouble joining

[zinc oak]

And does it happen when you try to load a solo world?

[forest heart]

Have you tried your own game and what are your specs?

[soft rune]

yes, the same happens in solo world

[zinc oak]

ah. Yes, the problem is the video card. Your GPU is under specs

[forest heart]

That looks like your issue, your GPU is below minimum.

[zinc oak]

People with this specific card have now become unable to load the game due to the low VRAM

[forest heart]

I have seen some people get it working, but it certainly doesn't look pretty and took quite a bit of fiddling.

And yes, it may have worked before, but with every update they add more, which puts more pressure on your system, when you're running below spec, it unfortunately could stop working at any moment.

[zinc oak]

lol It sounds like you have had this conversation before as well.

[soft rune]

Do u know how to join anyhow

[forest heart]

🤐

[soft rune]

idc about how it looks, i just wanna play with my friends tbh haha

[soft rune]

or do u mean that my system could die?

[zinc oak]

You would, at the very least, have to shut down any and everything on your system that could be using your vram - so everything you don't need to be running, including background applications, Shadowplay, any and every overlay like steam, discord and the like - so that it's basically windows, drivers, game and virus software. After that I have no idea what you would have to do - possibly some fiddling with overclocking which will decrease the life on an already very old card.

[forest heart]

Your ability to run the game will stop working.

[zinc oak]

and run the game on the very lowest setting possible

Even then you are looking at low FPS and graphics that look bad.

[forest heart]

This person, using the same card got it to work #troubleshooting message Though as i say, it doesn't look pretty and it takes fiddling. It was also only solo so i have no idea how it'll work with multiple people on a server.

[soft rune]

well that sucks haha

[zinc oak]

It looks like they mainly messed around with settings to get it to work, but every system is different so even then it may not work on yours

[soft rune]

ill try it

[zinc oak]

But you have reached that time when you should consider purchasing a newer GPU. You will run into this more frequently in newer games, and within a year or two NVIDIA will stop supporting the 10 series cards if they keep up with their pattern.

[soft rune]

yikes

[zinc oak]

So while they will still have security driver updates, they will no longer have game-ready drivers for the card.

[soft rune]

any cheap reccomendations? u seem like you know stuff

[zinc oak]

I mostly just BS really well.. lol - but really with GPU's they are just all stupidly expensive.

I would say stick to AMD or NVidia, as other cards will have issue with games because they aren't popular like those two. Maybe looking into getting a refurbished 30 series might be your best bet, but they still run high on price depending on your budget.

[soft rune]

about 30 mins ago i actually got into the server, for like 3 secs, and then the game crashed

is that then cuz my system said "heck no"

[forest heart]

Pretty much.

[zinc oak]

There is an MSI RTX 3060 on amazon for 279.99

That one is new - the refurbished one is only $10 less. lol

[soft rune]

my entire pc was 280usd haha

[zinc oak]

yeah - You can thank crypto farmers for that.

[soft rune]

thank you for clarifying the problem for me tho 🙂

[zinc oak]

No problem. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. No one likes hearing that.

[soft rune]

happens

[zinc oak]

Every 4-5 years for most people. lol

I had a rat that lived longer than my longest surviving computer.

[soft rune]

HAHA

[zinc oak]

then again, I did just Frankenstein a game server out of the lesser parts laying around - so perhaps this one might survive longer. 😄

[narrow harness]

manage to fix the scientific instruments quest somehow but now the quest ''rare instrument'' doesnt progress when i pick up the damn flute im not playing the game im playing at find a way to fix the broken quest 😵‍💫

[zinc oak]

One of the benefits to playing an EA game is you are always kept on your toes. 😄

Usually you have to get a AAA title to get that on release. 😉

[narrow harness]

ill try things like i did with the other quest to see if it fixes it

if it does ill tell what i did here for others

[zinc oak]

Start with what worked for the last one. But also, make sure to read the quest fully. I forget that one specifically, but I know I had a villager quest that refused to progress until I found a note - and I had the villager already.

[manic crypt]

Hello everyone. I need help. Since the yesterday-patch several blue screens happened, the game just freezes and then crashes.

We play with two ppl on a dedicated server and started a fresh playthrough after the big update came out. Anyone else got this problems?

[zinc oak]

Are you the one crashing or is the server crashing?

[manic crypt]

Me. Server keeps running, my mate can still play.

[ripe night]

Hello, I have to find a cat for a quest called „Freedachs Katze“ in German, but I have created buildings in that area. Could it be, that this cat will not spawn in my case? I can not find it at all 😦

[forest heart]

Yes, if your flame covers the spawn area of the cat, it will not spawn. Solution - Go to another server and find the cat in the same location and take it back to your own ^^

[ripe night]

Right, this is a good idea 💡 thx 😊

[mystic wolf]

hello everyone. I caught a bug. The quest "Ectoplasm Crushing Plant for the collector" does not go through to the next stage. We have already cleared the Halls of the dead in the "Rampant Forest" and killed the boss. But the quest stage has so far stopped at "Enter the Halls of the Dead"

because of this bug, quests for the next Halls of the Dead do not appear. How can this be solved? who has had similar problems before?

P.S. sorry for my bad English)

[forest heart]

Just remember, for the purpose of the quest, you might need to put it in one of your chests and take it back out on your world for the quest to update.

[forest heart]

This was a known issue, which was corrected in the patch deployed yesterday. If you return to the Hallowed halls and complete it (Kill the final boss) It will now correctly update the quest.

[mystic wolf]

ok, I'll try

[steady cairn]

Platform: Windows 11

Hi, I came back after a hiatus to play the new update. However, now I can't get *any *input response when using a Wireless Bluetooth Controller. No controller buttons register or respond in any way when Enshrouded is the active window

1. Same controller I used for all 250+ hours
2. Tested controller with other games, works with no issues
3. Recently switched from Windows 10 to 11 (possibly relevant? the controller used to work great when I was on 10)

I really hope I can find a solution. I am a gamer who doesn't have a left hand, so finding/adjusting game controls to find/create something comfortable and fluid for my needs is extremely important.

SIDE NOTE: I **strongly **believe Enshrouded's controller/keyboard remapping implementation should be the new industry standard. I don't know about anyone else, but this is the first game I've ever seen that allows for remapping a controller action to a combination of more than one input (e.g. Open Inventory -> RT + X ). This tiny addition is the only reason I was able to enjoy this game as much as I did for as long as I have.

[manic crypt]

Nobody has this issue? Hm ... 🤔

[vestal harbor]

NPC pathfinding is really broken since update, guess it's been reported alrdy

[supple mica]

Blue screens are normally kernel level failures. Check your device drivers, and if you are overclocked, consider lowering settings to see if it becomes stable again.

[manic crypt]

Ok, I'll check my system. Thx.

[zinc oak]

crap sorry - got distracted by a mini-troll. 🤣 Thanks Mazelon.

[supple mica]

incognito for the win 🙂

[zinc oak]

I would start by reinstalling all the drivers to make sure you are using the correct ones for windows 11. Also I would make sure your Vulkan Runtime is up to date.

[inland lake]

+1 for this. I was having the micro stutters on item switches as well as weapons/glider sticking to my character. Switching to local saves and disabling cloud saves did the trick! Smooth as butter now. ❤️

[rancid bear]

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there was a fix for buttons like sprint and crouching 'sticking' after being pressed, causing any interface that's being opened to completely lock you in the interface until manually alt-tabbing. After the alt-tab, the problem will repeat itself whenever these buttons are pressed.

[pseudo wigeon]

That's me. Wisps, lamps, torches all of the personal light sources feel 4 times dimmer compared when I first played Enshrouded before all the expansions.
It's like the gamma of the game were reduced overally, but light sources were left on the olda level.

[zinc oak]

Yeah, sorry about that I was running on no sleep. xD They have messed with the light settings a few times, but I think the biggest change, especially to wisp lights, is the lack of the environmental fog that used to cover everything. The game is crisper and clearer, but at the same time darker.

[storm pivot]

I gave up Enshrouded... not work torch, Light wisp potion I CAN'T SEE IT THE DARK IN CAVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAITED VERY LONG TIME 6 MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <@&1059853133188169910> I'm quit I'm done patience

[zinc hamlet]

This is not the sort of issue that moderators can help with.

[obtuse zenith]

Anyone else having this bug where your magic chest doesnt pull if its on one side of the base? I thought it was suppose to pull from the whole base? Is there a way to fix this?

[hard cloud]

Revelwood hollow halls collector quest is still bugged for me. Really hoped it was one of the bugged quests mentioned in the notes for this patch.

[forest heart]

Yea i know, us plebs aren't good enough for most of you 😛

[naive walrus]

Me and a friend are trying to start a new world on a dedicated server.
when my friend finds a material we both get the recepie. We dont want it like that. is there a way to change that?

[pseudo wigeon]

Yeah, advanced wax torch, I've written about it.
Main point is now I'm restricted to go adventuring at day, because at night all possibble portable light sources does not work satisfactory.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (funnily you respond better at a lot of exclamation marks, so I've included them 😊 )

Maybe the light-radius is enough for melee, but no way I can target a bit further away enemies with a spell or a bow.

But I'll look at it now after the big update yesterday...
Strange. After seeing screenshots were all right, I fiddled with my monitor's settings, and deactivating eye saver and activating game mode made it right.

Altough it's on your conscience that me eyes won't be saved. 😄

[sterile fog]

why are my yaks so ungrateful

they have food, shalter, and beds

[fringe knoll]

where can i give feedback? the new crafting UI at the workbench is so terrible

[vestal harbor]

nop sadly , some quests are shared and some aren't

[vestal harbor]

yup, same bug appear with some workshop addon that are marked "red crossed" but still you can build.

[naive walrus]

pitty.. thank you for replying 🙂
I really hope they change that. the point with survival on a dedicated server gets a little lost then I think.

Anyone else having FPS problems since patch game feels really choppy

[supple mica]

in general? or specific to weapon swaps and jumping and stuff? #troubleshooting message

[abstract kite]

In general everything i do is really choppy i only just came back before the patch and the game was fine now its bad

[supple mica]

there have been some reports of the steam broadcasting feature breaking the frame rate right now... I would check to see if that, or some other overlay is running on it, and maybe causing an issue... whats your video card?

[abstract kite]

Ive got a RTX 4080

[supple mica]

well def not that then.... yeah... check into the broadcasting section of steam, and turn that off if its on... retest. my 3080 didn't seem to do anything crazy when I tested after patch.

[abstract kite]

Broadcasting is off

[sterile fog]

speaking of performance, i know its early access but i feel like since i have an rtx 4090, i should be getting more than 20-40fps on max quality. or is that just not the case?

[meager frost]

Is anyone else having mini dumps created when you close the game normally? It’s happening every time I exit. No negative effects on the game I’m noticing but a bit concerned that it’s happening every time I quit game.

[abstract kite]

Yeah this game is unplayable ive tried fixing the stuttering/fps drop but nothing seems to fix it pretty sure this was the reason i stopped playing in the first place

[foggy peak]

Hey just a little thing, but Granite refuses to move from my Backpack to a Magical Chest when I hit Shift-R. I think it is just being petulant, but may be a bug.

[supple mica]

Odd. I just started a single player game up on a premade map, and ran around for a little bit. nothing of note. avg fps was around 80-100 for the most part. 11700k/3080ti win11

[grizzled yew]

Mines been doing the same, though I've seen that happening inconsistently with a few other materials like that for awhile now so I wasn't sure if it was a granite-specific bug or just something that happened sometimes with all equippable materials.

[meager dome]

Game is crashing. Got the crash file.

[verbal lodge]

Hey guys, my boyfriend and I just finished the second Hollow Hall last night, but when we got back in a few minutes ago it turned out that the world progress had been rolled back quite a bit. Buildings that were close to being finished were missing roofs/windows etc, several shroud roots that had been completed were no longer marked as done, and my boyfriends character (not mine) went from lvl 17 to lvl 13. After some experimentation we have discovered that the world is no longer saving at all, and every time we change something then re-load the world, any changes that had been made basically never happened. He also keeps getting this message about his settings file being corrupted and needing to be reset, but I'm unsure if that is related. He's reinstalled the game twice, and the same thing keeps happening. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

[supple mica]

C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\Enshrouded\enshrouded_user.json may be the corrupted file in question... could try to back it up and move it out of that location... to see if it makes a new one to replace it.

[verbal lodge]

Is it possible for the .json file to be saved elseware?

[storm pivot]

<@&1059853133188169910> here is proof for you!! now are you making fun of me???

I'm using a dedicated server and changed the json setting to "0"

[last spire]

Hey, I am apparently infinitely loading into a friends server. I was on the server before, tonight. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[supple mica]

change Default to Custom above the settings?

[stray heart]

Just curious, can you join the server on a completely new character?

[last spire]

Instead of doing the "Enshrouded" in the bottom corner loading forever, it is just sitting with "loading..." in the bottom corner forever

[zinc oak]

It looks like your question may have been lost in the cacophony from someone tagging the moderators. Sorry about that. This is not a bug. The chests have a distance range that is less than the size of a fully upgraded base. If you have the chest on one side of the base, you will not be able to access it from the other. Your best bet is to have your main storage somewhere near the center of the base so that everything can be accessed.

---

@abstract kite and @sterile fog are either of you playing in 4K? From what I understand several people have been having problems with performance when the resolution is set that high, and dropping it down to a lower resolution fixed the issue for them.

[zinc oak]

The bug has been fixed, however you do need to run the entire dungeon and kill the boss again to trigger it. Until then, the quest will stay stuck on the first step.

[abstract kite]

just tried that didnt fix it made it a little better but still pretty noticeable

[zinc oak]

What video card do you have?

[last spire]

1080 TI

[zinc oak]

What is the VRAM on that?

[last spire]

I have no idea

It has never been an issue before

[zinc oak]

Okay. So you shouldn't be having that issue. Let's see if we can't figure out why. What is your CPU and how much ram do you have?

[abstract kite]

AMD Ryzen 7 7700 8-Core Processor and 32.0 GB ram

[zinc oak]

As the game is being developed it gets larger and people who were once able to play the game with cards that were below spec with the VRAM are beginning to not be able to play the game at all. I'm just looking here and it seems like the 1080ti may have had enough VRAM, however it's still a very low end card. If you are running the game on anything above the lowest settings it's likely still going to have issues.

Make sure to set your graphics settings to the lowest setting (you can turn voxel detail models up one to make it look a little better) and see if you are able to get into the game after that. If you are still having issues after that, let me know and we'll see what we can do.

[zinc oak]

Alright. Is this happening on a solo game or are you playing coop or multiplayer?

[last spire]

I was literally playing it tonight. Was there an update like 2 hours ago that I am unaware of?

And I would understand if the game crashed or froze up or something, but being stuck on the loaading into a friends server, but I can load a personal server?

Have no idea how that could be my graphics card

[zinc oak]

There was one yesterday that caused this issue for many people with 10 series cards.

[last spire]

Okay, but I was literally playing tonight

[abstract kite]

Coop ive been playing with a friend but he hasnt been on as much but the issue only started after the update the game was running fine

[last spire]

And can still play solo

[zinc oak]

I understand that, but I am not psychic and you didn't mention that.

[last spire]

"Hey, I am apparently infinitely loading into a friends server. I was on the server before, tonight. Any ideas on how to fix it?"

I did

[zinc oak]

Ah. I missed the comma, my bad.

[leaden trench]

hy there ha some wher found dog 4 and 5

[zinc oak]

Does the issue still happen when you are playing solo?

[abstract kite]

Yep only thing i can do that fixes it for 1 hour is restart my computer and sometimes even that doesnt fix it

[zinc oak]

well that's... weird.

[zinc oak]

Sorry I have no idea what you just asked.

[sterile fog]

Yeah i am. I was hoping to avoid lowering the resolution, but if that's the only way I guess i have to

[zinc oak]

Try that and see if it works for you at least. It's worth a shot.

[leaden trench]

my server started at 15637 with no problems i doing update and restart daily

[abstract kite]

From what i looked online the devs know about this issue but looks like they dont care to fix it this has been ongoing for months now

[sterile fog]

I also found that lowering the point light shadows helps some, and couldn't really find any visual difference at all

[zinc oak]

Just because an issue hasn't been fixed yet doesn't mean they don't care to. not all issues are within their control, and when they are, they are not always easy to find and fix. Also many issues that seem the same can vary wildly in their cause.

[zinc oak]

Have you verified your game files on steam yet? Also have you restarted your PC?

[abstract kite]

Well ten months is a long time to not fix a pretty big issue that effects a lot of people like i get it its not a full game yet but they made a lot of money when the game was popular

[zinc oak]

I'm not here to debate whether or not the devs care about fixing issues, honestly. I know that it can be frustrating when there are problems with a game and you want to get that out, however I am just a player who chooses to be here and help people when they have an issue. I have no control or say in that.

Let's see if we can't figure out what is going on with you and fix the issue if possible.

Getting past the obvious stuff, have you already verified your files?

[zinc oak]

I'm sorry I am still not understanding what your issue is.

[abstract kite]

All good thanks for trying to help ill have to just deal with it and hope they can fix it sometime soon

[zinc oak]

I would still like to try and help you if you are willing.

[leaden trench]

i will say that is not a server problem what @abstract kite have. really i think it´s a Problem with installation on here PC. Make repair the Installation

[zinc oak]

Ah yes. Verify the files. sorry I thought you were coming in with a problem.

[abstract kite]

Ive uninstalled the game couple of times and Verify the files no luck

[zinc oak]

Okay. And your drivers are up to date?

[abstract kite]

yep

[leaden trench]

Show that your drivers are up to Date and reinstall DirectX

[zinc oak]

The game doesn't use directX

[leaden trench]

that mean you but it make it i seen that in the log

[lucid meadow]

Did I break something?

[zinc oak]

Okay - There is a tool that is made by one of the helpers here that goes through and does a few things that might help you with your issue. It's mainly for crashing issues, but what it does can also help with performance issues as well. https://github.com/LiaNdrY/Enshrouded-Tool-Fix

The readme on the site explains how to use it. Give it a try and see if it helps with the performance.

[zinc oak]

I have seen this in here a couple of times since the update. If you have already verified your game files on steam, try clearing your shader caches in your GPU settings and steam and delete all files in this folder (...\Steam\steamapps\shadercache\1203620\) to see if that fixes the issue.

How to clear the shader cache in your GPU:

• NVIDIA: Open the NVIDIA Control Panel → Manage 3D Settings → Click "Clear Shader Cache."
• AMD: Open AMD Adrenalin Software → Settings → Graphics → Reset Shader Cache.

How to clear your shader cache in steam:

• open steam settings
• Select "Shader precaching" on the left
• toggle Shader pre-caching off and then back on again

[crimson fulcrum]

anyone having issues with fast travelling not working and certain things disappearing?

[zinc oak]

I haven't seen anything about this recently. When did it start?

[crimson fulcrum]

just now when I hopped into someone elses private world

[zinc oak]

Had you been there before?

[crimson fulcrum]

yes we started a world together and we are already level 7, I hopped on this evening and noticed when I was teleporting to a spire, my character disappeared. then was back at base and telelporting didnt work anymore and chests were missing

[zinc oak]

Are they also having the same issues?

[crimson fulcrum]

I restarted game and they were there again but would disappear after I try to fast travel

no they are not

[zinc oak]

with the fast travel*

[crimson fulcrum]

no they are not

[zinc oak]

Okay. Have you already verified your game files and made sure your graphics drivers are up to date?

And are you having this problem in solo worlds as well?

[zinc oak]

Just a note - if this doesn't fix your issue, I just saw that they are aware of it, and actively working on a fix.

[quick grail]

Anyone can help? My enshrouded keep doing this straight after I left it for 3 hours validating, it keeps repeating from 1% to 100% and then it repeats again

[zinc oak]

I had someone else have this yesterday. In their case it seemed like a corrupted sector on their hard drive - but uninstalling the game and reinstalling it fixed their issue.

[quick grail]

So it's the only solution I could do before anything else?

[zinc oak]

also clear your steam's download cache

[quick grail]

Oh okay I'll try that first

It's been a while after that swampy update

That update is the last time I logged in to the game

[zinc oak]

Usually the first step when something goes wrong with a game is verifying the files. Since the files are failing to verify the problem does appear to be there. You can try just clearing the download cache and see if it validates, but if not, I would clear the cache again and then reinstall the game.

If you are not using cloud saves, be sure to save your save folder before reinstalling.

[quick grail]

I'm using cloud saves, but I will still save the folder before reinstalling just in case

[zinc oak]

A good precaution. 🙂

[quick grail]

Thanks for the guide, I hope it works

[soft island]

I need help. I have both dogs and a cat but the golden retriever dog just like disappeared from my base one day. I have no idea where it could be and I have tried to take the food away to see if I could spot the red icon but nothing works. Any tips to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

[steep leaf]

did a wolf attack it?

[quick grail]

I did the clear cache and still happening, doing reinstall and it works

[soft island]

I dont have any wolf spawns near my base I am also missing two of my fae deer now as well.

[zinc oak]

Check rooves, atticks and other locations where it might have glitched to. Unfortunately with new features such as this, bugs are inevitable, but they are working hard to track them down and fix them. Whether you find it or not, I would report the issue by using F1 from inside the game and let them know the situation so they are aware of it.

[zinc oak]

It worked after reinstall?

[quick grail]

Yes

Straight to play

[zinc oak]

Awesome! glad to hear it 🙂

[fringe knoll]

Coming back to enshrouded feels so bad with the new crafting UI ... the old one is way more intuitive.
New one looks like they used big Mobile Games Pictures...
And the new one is bugged too, if you open it, it automatically scrolls down.

Next thing, i always craft bandages when i need yarn. Just because the pictures are way too similar

dw, its normal nowadays 🙂

[zinc oak]

Moderators are here to moderate the discord. pinging them repeatedly for game issues will get you muted. They had been warned in the past.

Devs have nothing to do with the discord. The content managers choose who moderates, and helpers are just players who have proven themselves to be helpful to the community and nothing more.

[fringe knoll]

i am happy when they change back crafting UI but it wont happen so i guess i quit haha 😄

[zinc oak]

Just like in real life, in this community you get back what you out out there.

Nope. never.

And you wonder why people aren't helpful to you.

Sorry to hear that.

I have an issue but you cant help with this, its about the new crafting ui 😦

Ah. yeah. Have you already made a suggestion on their suggestions page, or upvoted one that was the same?

[fringe knoll]

I made a suggestion, posted on steam, on reddit, feedback hub, discord, reddit xD

etc.

[zinc oak]

lol. I see you are passionate about it. Well the best way for the devs to see it is the suggestions page, and if it gains enough traction they will consider it. They are good like that. You have done what you can. 🙂

If you find like-minded individuals, you can point them to your suggestion and have them upvote it to help as well.

[fringe knoll]

Yeah I hope so. Tbh the new crafting ui and my ADHD is a pain

To be clear, the crafting Ui at the workbench

[zinc oak]

The old one bothered me a bit, but the new one, while better, is quite long. I am sure they are not done fiddling with it to make it perfect.

[fringe knoll]

good points, its too long, thats it! 😄

i couldnt find the issue i have with it, its too long... scroll scroll scroll xD

[meager copper]

I'm having a hard time with this. I've added our server to favorites, but from this spot (after searching directly via ip), I can't actually connect? Am I doing something wrong? I've added it to favorites but dont see any way to see it

[zinc oak]

They might be able to help you in #server-support - I know there are several changes made recently that could be affecting how your server is seen or whether it can be seen, but am not up-to-date on what the issues might be or their fixes.

[fringe knoll]

I got a good solution for the crafting ui = smaller icons😅

[limber belfry]

I'm not sure if I broke my npcs or if the fix did but they were (almost, expect for weird sleeping habits on the ground outside the house) perfectly fine and after the fix they started well let's call it group dancing around in circles 😂

[zinc oak]

I don't disagree, but my aging eyes do a little bit. 😄

[zinc oak]

There are some pathing issues. The devs are aware of it, though, and hopefully we will have a fix soon. 🙂

It's not just you.

[limber belfry]

Ok thanks! I wasn't sure if something went wrong with the download or not xD

[zinc oak]

I just watched my farmer bump into the door a few times then walk to a window and spin around. xD

[limber belfry]

I was afk for a few minutes to get my tea, turned around and 4 were around me spinning 😂 not sure what was going on but it felt like a weird ritual

I gave up my farmer yesterday, he made friends with the chicken yesterday and barely has stopped "dancing" with them ... Tbh it's extremely funny to watch if it wasn't for the stomping sounds

[fringe knoll]

Oh damn, didnt think about it im in the same boat haha

[sonic pendant]

Anyone else wish the glider mode had an invert the 'W' and 'S' key? I hate that up is down, and down is up!!! How hard could it be to have a separate keybinding for Gliding mode?

[lucid meadow]

Hmmm negative on all even google's recommendations could not remedy it - oh well, planning to cover it all in grass anyway so will just have to put up with it during the build 😦

[zinc oak]

Yeah. It was a long shot, but shaders can do that so I was hoping it was a corrupted one. The devs are aware of it and have informed us that a fix is coming - possibly in the next patch.

[lucid meadow]

Ah no worries was just hoping that I hadn't broken something lol - happy to know that it is not just me! because - by god that is jarring!

[near granite]

Speaking about bad eyesight: Do you know if the devs intend to do anything about brightness? Because currently it's a pain to put it simple and flare arrows not being reliable (they work like 50% of the time "as intended") isn't helpful. Or is there a setting somewhere that would help? ("Whisp of Light" does not make that much light to begin with.)

[zinc oak]

You can make a suggestion or upvote it on https://enshrouded.featureupvote.com/

[zinc oak]

I haven't heard anything specifically.

[livid turtle]

When I reload, any bodies in my base respawn. I think this has something to do with the fact I didn't clear them before placing down my altar. Is this a known bug? This happens in two of my bases. Anyone know a workaround that doesn't involve losing my base?

[zinc oak]

Even after you remove them?

[livid turtle]

Yep, I'll remove the body, then on next reload, it's back.

[zinc oak]

That's a new one to me. xD I woudl hit F1 and explain that in a bug report.

[livid turtle]

Will do!

[near granite]

That's unfortunate. Don't get me wrong: Some of the effects look very good during the night, but it requires some reliable light source. 😦

[zinc oak]

They are providing light though, right?

Just making sure cause there is an issue some people were having with light sources.

[near granite]

Depends. When a flare arrow hits the perfect spot you get a very nice huge light. Perfect. But if it doesn't you get only the "lightball" without additional light. On the pic it's "failed ones which still provide a little bit" of light.

And there's also the issue with flickering.

[zinc oak]

Hmm... see that looks okay for me. I wonder if it's your monitor?

[near granite]

This is with a better hit (enemies are good for that) where the lightbulb lights a bigger area.

[zinc oak]

I don't use flare arrows though - so I am not sure what they are supposed to look like

can you take a screenshot of one failed one in that same area?

[near granite]

My display is fairly dark which isn't improving the situation. And I'm not talking about all dungeons being "day time" like before the update. But one flare arrow lighting an entire room or being "a tiny candle" is a huge difference. 🤷‍♀️

And if I've to use a bunch it can result flickering (which isn't that unusual in games).

Flare arrows are very, very nice when they work. But I can't ask an enemy in a dungeon to wait a bit until I hit a good spot. The enemies aren't that polite.

[zinc oak]

I am having a hard time distinguishing, I think maybe because you do have three of them in the top photo.

funny thing is, on my main monitor they look the same, on my secondary, it looks like the flares in the top are actually brighter. xD

[near granite]

This is a "failed one". It looks like a very tiny solar eclipse.

[zinc oak]

okay - THAT I see 🙂

[near granite]

If I would hit a better spot (chest might do) it would light the entire room.

That's a "working lightbulb". Yes, I hit the chest with an explosive arrow first. 🙄

And when I use them for mining or looting it's not a big problem because I can just take the time to hit a good spot (one does know the good ones after some time). But that doesn't work so well when being chased through a cave. 🤷‍♀️

[lucid meadow]

I'm not gonna complain about this one any more, buuuuut - here's an image for the lulz

[lucid meadow]

that is a rather apt description lol

[zinc oak]

I mean... at least it's symmetrical and even. 🤣

[lucid meadow]

Lol very true "it's a feature"

[zinc oak]

people would have paid good money for that pattern and colors in the 70's.

[near granite]

You either get the sun or a solar eclipse is pretty fitting in huge rooms. 😂

[silver shell]

Sometimes flare arrows do not work at all for me, they are usually decent if not a bit inconsistent in brightness, but if aimed at something thin, like a wall, sometimes it just goes through the wall lmao

[keen void]

Hi every one, where i can send my screenshots from the game with bugs?

[silver shell]

Though that might be less of an issue with flare arrows as torches occasionally do the same thing, especially with the ground.

[white geyser]

is it just me or are farm animals a bit... broken right now? mine keep deciding they don't have beds

[keen void]

Like this:

[silver shell]

What happened 😂 looks like an AI generated img

[zinc oak]

Bugs can be reported from inside the game (including video, files and/or screenshots) by pressing F1

[zinc oak]

Animals, especially the Yaks are experiencing some issues. The devs are aware of the issue and are working towards a fix.

[zinc oak]

But I see a lot going on right there - what is the problem you are having?

[keen void]

animals sometimes enter roofs or other buildings such as machine tools and do not move from there. In this situation, he stands on the roof day and night. And sometimes I have situations where people and animals sleep in an arbitrary place and even in the air or a wall

[zinc oak]

Yeah, the devs are aware of the issue and are working on a fix.

[keen void]

sometimes it's look like joke

)))))))

[zinc oak]

we can only laugh at it for now. 😄

[forest heart]

Those beds look too close to me, the current version of the NPC's don't like struggling to get into bed 😄

[keen void]

when I put these beds on, the residents all slept in them for several days, but then they decided that it was better to sleep on the road

[forest heart]

It's just a trend i noticed, my NPC's more reliably go to bed properly since their beds have been seperated. Could just be coincidence.

[keen void]

Well, I have separate houses for artisans, but only 10-20% sleep in them at night. Some, like this peasant, either just stand on boxes/beds, or spin around on the spot

[zinc oak]

Yeah it is an issue with their pathing.

[forest heart]

Yea, the bed is against the wall, the NPC's like their space (Yes, a pathing issue.)

[keen void]

Maybe you're right, but the game allowed you to install a bed there.... I'll move it away from the wall.

[forest heart]

You can put a bed 100 meters in the air, doesn't mean the NPC's are smart enough to get to it ^^

I'm honestly surprised with this first iteration of moving NPC's that we actually have so little issues with them... i expected a lot more with a free build world.

[keen void]

"NPC's are smart enough" hahhahahahahah

It is a pity that ordinary residents cannot be assigned tasks: logging, creating food, collecting resources from animals and feeding them, patrolling the perimeter from wolves

[forest heart]

Maybe they'll introduce something along those lines in the future ^^

[neat bobcat]

Anyone else having multiplayer problems? My friend has extreme rubberband and cannot enjoy the game.. the worst places are the Hollow Halls but today he has problem in general.. we just got to the Albaneve Summits part of the map.... Its sad because honestly I find this one of the best survival games I've played...

[zinc oak]

What is their ping?

[neat bobcat]

140-200

he has spikes

[zinc oak]

It sounds like a bad internet connection or something happening between them and you.

[neat bobcat]

he tried to join a different server and it was better..

little google search we did, we saw that many people experience problems but we couldn't find a solution..

[zinc oak]

How far away is he?

[neat bobcat]

cheque republic

im in Greece

not too close, not too far..

I honestly don't think its my pc. I'm above recommended

[zinc oak]

At the moment Enshrouded is intolerant of high pings, but the game doesn't actually cause high pings. High pings are caused by everything between their computer and yours from router issues, low bandwidth on either end or any number of issues that could be occuring along the route.

think of it like driving.. nothing in your house or theirs will cause them to be late, but any number of things, downed trees, accidents, road closures, flooding - they make them late to your place.

[acoustic ivy]

Hey guys, I've checked alot of message of some guys having the issue already but nothing helped me out.

Why is there a "The server is full or unavailable" error? How can I fix it? I've set my ip to 0.0.0.0 also tried 127.0.0.1 like others reported to solve the issue, I've waited 10 mins still the same issue, does anyone know what im doing wrong?

[rotund summit]

i have a small issue my tombstone is glitched in a door and i can't open the tombstone only the door

nvm i just fixed it but it is very annoying

[narrow harness]

did the nomad hollow hall and holy fps were going 15 when fighting

[forest heart]

I'd aim that question to https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1195385334310121593 Will get a quicker answer ^^

[tame palm]

What are these splotches of shroud terrain all over? They're everywhere I go

And apparently other people on the server don't see them

[zinc oak]

That looks like shroud dirt. Possibly a visual glitch of some kind of no one else is seeing them.

[nimble stratus]

Anyone else having issues with the game running extremely slow? I can't even load into a game even after I switched my graphics to best performance

[zinc oak]

What are your system specs?

[nimble stratus]

RTX 3050 with a 13th Gen Intel i5 and 16GBs of Ram

The game ran perfectly fine on balanced graphics settings but now the game is basically unplayable with how slow its running

[zinc oak]

When did you notice this starting?

[nimble stratus]

It's the first time loading up the new update, played a little over week ago with no issues

[zinc oak]

Have you already verified your files on steam and made sure your GPU drivers are up to date? and are you playing solo or multiplayer?

[nimble stratus]

Checked drivers and they're current, how do I verify my files on Steam? Playing solo atm

[zinc oak]

Go to your library and right click on the game. click on properties and then installed files.

there will be an option there to Verify integrity of game files.

[nimble stratus]

Verified files and it didn't solve the issue, but after resetting display settings to default it fixed the problem so thanks for your help

[zinc oak]

lol - I didn't do too much, but I am glad that fixed your issues. 🙂

[merry slate]

Hey, a friend getting "server is full or unavailable" it worked yesterday without any problem. we cleared steam cache allready any other fixes?

[zinc oak]

They should be able to help you over in #server-support - but just make sure the server itself was updated after the update yesterday.

[merry slate]

no other of our group has this problem he is the only one

[dim bobcat]

"Server is full or unavailable" pin: #troubleshooting message

[merry slate]

tried allready, didnt worked =/

[tame palm]

Yeah
I'm just wondering how to fix that, because it's really ALL OVER and looks terrible

[zinc oak]

Have you verified your game files?

[near granite]

Walls are a bed spot for them. If one sees an object like a barrel, chest or whatever it works a lot better. Problem: One needs to see one of those first and have the time to aim at them. If enemies are too close the "auto aim" will target those instead of the object one wants to use for getting light. Hence why I would have preferred the flare arrows being made more reliable before they "darkened" the game. Or maybe a tier 2 version of the wisp of light with double brightness and double duration. 🤷‍♀️

[robust stream]

keep getting stuck at loading screen after the firs cinematic is finished, iv tried validating the game files, recreate my charecter and world. What else can i do?

[compact hill]

Help..
I have 200hrs gameplay before and then took a rest about couple of months. I saw big updates and decided to jump in again. But I can't play, it's keep on crashing without any crash report. I tried reinstalling the game but still no luck.. 🥹

I played it without any problems before.. Settings still the same.. Other games alright. Can anyone help me?🙏

[zinc oak]

What are your system specs?

[zinc oak]

Type /minidump in chat and follow the instructions. This resolves most crashing issues. If you complete all the steps and are still crashing, reply to this message and we'll try and see if we can't get you up and running again.

[thin temple]

time that annoying error gets fixed soon , you guys can also see that it can't be hardware , it must be related to the fix of the shaders that they performed.

[zinc oak]

What error?

[thin temple]

Today and yesterday maybe 20 gaming crashes already

[zinc oak]

Did you already verify your game files?

[thin temple]

yep

[zinc oak]

did you follow the instructions in /minidump?

[thin temple]

my drivers are uo to date 🙂

[zinc oak]

if it was just drivers, that would be easier for me to type than telling people to type it. lol

[thin temple]

Look my friends having the same issues

[zinc oak]

It's a list of things you can do that repairs most issues.

[zinc oak]

hmm... okay I'll let the creator know. Give me a second I'll type everything out in here. 🙂

[compact hill]

Thank you very much.. 🙏

[thin temple]

That will be best I think , we don't have to start running programmes to check everything anyway - Thank you very much ✌️ ❤️

[zinc oak]

Then you and your friend can do the steps together. lol. There are a variety of reasons why games crash. it's not just "one issue" that has been going on since day one.

[thin temple]

It start yesterday so ? Thats the first time for me from yesterday lets say 20 times already this error chrah

[compact hill]

I believe it's not hardware issues at my end as I played almost 300hrs before without any problem, yesterday I decided to jump back in and patch it. After that, that minidump error pop up, i tried verifying files, check drivers, reinstall and after that, minidump error msg gone but still crashing.. 😩

[zinc oak]

Step #1 - Verify game files via Steam
How to verify your game files

Check to see if this resolved the issue...

Step #2 - Use Liandry's Tool
Check README on the website on how to use it. https://github.com/LiaNdrY/Enshrouded-Tool-Fix

Check to see if this resolved the issue...

Step #3 -- Rename enshrouded_local.json
rename the file located here...
...\Steam\steamapps\common\Enshrouded\enshrouded_local.json (will reset ingame settings)

Check to see if this resolved the issue...

Step #4 - Clean reinstall GPU driver (with DDU!)
Clean Install w/ DDU
REPEAT STEP #2

Check to see if this resolved the issue...

[zinc oak]

Well you can do the steps or not, but there is no use clogging up this channel talking about it. 🤣

[thin temple]

With a lot of respect to you , if this persists I'll switch to and other game until we get a fix as an update 🤣

[zinc oak]

Frankly, if you aren't willing to go through the steps to figure out what the issue is or try to fix it out on this end, than it's possible that whatever the issue is may remain unfixed. There are plenty of reasons that games crash, even after updates, that are not programmatical in nature, and completely unfixable by another update.

[thin temple]

Now we already have water back in game only they forgot to give us a water reservoir , do you water your plantation with a field bottle 🤣

[tame palm]

That didn't help

[compact hill]

@zinc oak thanks for your help.. I followed the instructions until the DDU step. The start menu turns black but it lets me in to the game. 5 mins later it crashed again. I was hoping it'll be better. But thank you anyway. I missed the game but I guess I'll just have to wait maybe someday the problem will get fix. 🙏

[zinc oak]

Does this happen in your single player games?

[zinc oak]

What is your system specs? let's see if we can't figure out what is going on.

[tame palm]

I just noticed it seems to change and sometimes disappear if I walk back and forth over the same place and LoDs change
I'll check single player real quick

Yes, it happens in single player

[compact hill]

Device name DESKTOP-B0FO22L

[zinc oak]

Okay. can you go into your graphics settings and tell me what your "texture quality" is set at?

[tame palm]

Max. Quality

[zinc oak]

Okay, if you turn it down to just quality, does it still happen?

[tame palm]

It didn't change the textures I was seeing while I changed the settings, but I'll try changing the setting and loading some new areas

[zinc oak]

Okay. Is there any pattern to the crashes? Do they happen at a regular interval or when you load a certain area or anything like that, or are they more random?

[tame palm]

Still happens when I change to balanced

But I can see it appearing and disappearing at random when ground LoDs change

[zinc oak]

okay. It's acting like a texture streaming issue, but usually changing the quality fixes it. What are your system specs real quick?

[tame palm]

Ryzen 5950X, 7900 XTX, 32 GiB system memory, Win 10

Ok , this is weird, I can see the same faulty texture in the same place on the single player world as I could earlier in the server

[zinc oak]

Okay likely not an overload of your vram then. I was trying to avoid this, but it might be a shader issue as well.

[compact hill]

Hi..
Yaah..
I noticed something..
I tried to join some free blue server and I can play without crashing. But when I go back to my private world or even the one I newly created, it crashed. 🤔
Do you think something wrong with my world?

[zinc oak]

You went into two solo worlds and both crashed?

[compact hill]

Yes solo world crashed

[zinc oak]

If you went into two different ones and both crashed, it probably isn't a world corruption. But the crash might be caused by something that the server is handling that you system is handling in the solo worlds.

[compact hill]

Actually, me and my brother played together, we have dedicated world but we decided to take a break then I took all valuebles to my private world.

[zinc oak]

So - if you are willing to try - You can clear out all your shader caches. If there is a faulty shader in there it should replace it. If you need instructions on how to clear your GPU, Steam and Vulkan shader caches as well as the shader cache for the game - let me know.

[tame palm]

Instructions would be helpful

[zinc oak]

Okay. give me one second. I am sure I havee a cut and paste here somewhere 🤣

[zinc oak]

How to clear all shader caches:

Steam:

• Close Steam
• Using file explorer, navigate to the shader cache folder located here:
  C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\shadercache
  (If you installed steam in a custom folder or different drive, navigate to that location instead)
• Delete the entire contents of that folder.

Vulkan:

• Navigate to
  C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\NVIDIA\GLCache
• Delete the entire contents of that folder.

GPU

• Nvidia: Open Nvidia Control panel and go to manage 3D settings Scroll down to Shader Cache Size change the setting to off, click apply then reset the setting back to what it was.
• AMD: Open AMD Adrenalin Software, go to settings, click the graphics tab and reset shader cache and the click perform reset. You will have to restart your computer for changes to take effect.
• Intel: Navigate to
  C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\Intel\ShaderCache
  and delete all filles in that folder. If no folder exists than you can ignore this step.

Enshrouded

• Navigate to
  ...\Steam\steamapps\shadercache\1203620\
• Delete the entire contents of that folder.

The next time you start enshrouded it will download all your shaders again, so it could take 10+ minutes for the game to load initially, but it will only happen the first time you open the game.

[compact hill]

hi.. i got a new weird message 😦

[zinc oak]

Okay - the first number is an error with memory or application handling within windows. The second number is different for each system. It (the first number) is usually caused by corrupted files, memory allocation issues or software conflicts.

It's possible you have a corrupt GPU driver (you might have to do the DDU afterall), problems with your RAM, or even issues with your Virus software. It could also be caused by any other heavy-hitting software you have running that might be eating up your memory or conflicting with the game in some way.

I think the first thing to do would be to shut down everything that isn't necessary to run the game/your computer - including your virus software - and see if that helps. After that we are looking at possibly reinstalling your game and/or running that DDU

[compact hill]

Thank you.. I pinned the instructions about DDU. I'll do it when I do get a free time again. Thank you for guidance.. See you later.. 😃

[zinc oak]

Let me know if it works. 😄

[tame palm]

Reset/deleted the shader caches and restart my PC and restarted the game, the issue persists

[zinc oak]

well crap. Are you running the game at your native resolution?

[tame palm]

Actually, nope
I'm running it at 4K resolution

[zinc oak]

can you put it to the native resolution and see if that helps? I'm starting to spitball here, so forgive me.

[near granite]

Are these those shroud fragments too? 🤔

[tame palm]

Issue persists on native resolution
I don't mind trying different things at all

[zinc oak]

That's just rock.

[near granite]

Ok. So limestone has that blue "glow". Thanks. I just noticed it for the first time with those (probably time of day).

[zinc oak]

Okay, forgive me if I asked this already - are your graphics drivers up to date?

[tame palm]

Yes, 24.10.1

[zinc oak]

well my next suggestions are either rolling back your driver to the previous version or reinstalling the game to see if that fixes the issue. I would probably go with the reinstall first, as I still think something funky is going on in there.

To be sure - you should probably clear your download cache in steam before reinstalling the game

[thin temple]

Maybe you can play the game bro and try to fix it so then you can tell it us 🙂

[zinc oak]

You can clear the download cache in steam settings under the downloads section. There should be a setting there to clear the cache.

[zinc oak]

I am playing the game and I am not having the issue they are.

also not having the issue you are.

also... not a Bro 🤣

[thin temple]

Look i install my old drivers again from 4 day's ago and no more issues .

maybe the new drivers a not compatible with steam at the moment

[zinc oak]

Rolling back fixed the crashing?

nice. 🙂

Well if your friend is still having issues with crashing, have them pop in here and we'll try to help them as well.

[thin temple]

yep no more issues enymore , just remove the new driver from yesterday and install the version from before on it , its fixed at the moment

they did the same reinstall the driver from 4 days ago no issue enymore

[zinc oak]

they have the same card and driver as you? interesting. Can you tell me what the driver version was that you rolled back to?

oh and what card. lol. I guess I didn't ask for your specs.

[tame palm]

Is the enshrouded tool fix still a thing? I remember using that back in April

[zinc oak]

I still recommend it, yeah.

[tame palm]

So, I cleared download cache and reinstalled the game

[thin temple]

I install the version from Gforce agian " Driver versie: 566.03 - Releasedatum: di okt 22, 2024 - not the new one enymore yestarday the new was 566.14 so this give issue the new

[tame palm]

Game now launches in Vulkan instead of DX12

Issue persists

Lighting looks quite different, though

[thin temple]

yeah bro

[zinc oak]

The game never used DirectX

[thin temple]

And special give once the wall lights they dont burn all 🙂

[tame palm]

Well, up until the reinstall, RTSS was showing DX12 instead of Vulkan as the API

[thin temple]

if we use steam we have DX on or pc config 🙂

[tame palm]

I also tried turning SAM off since it affects texture streaming and the issue wasn't resolved either

[zinc oak]

I would try the reinstall and if that doesn't work, roll back your drivers. If neither of those work, it might just be something you need to report as a bug, as it might be something on their end - though I have never seen it in here before, but people just may not notice it as well.

[tame palm]

Is there a way to roll the game back one version?

[supple mica]

not that I am aware. steam will always try and keep it up to date unless you tell it not to.

[zinc oak]

No. the game doesn't have legacy versions. you would have had to have made a snapshot of your game files and pasted them over your current ones - and I am not even sure that would work - steam is persistant about stuff being upgraded.

[zinc oak]

Oh hey - so I don't think I got an answer. Do you and your friend have the exact same grapics card, and which cards do you guys have?

[tame palm]

I ran the enshrouded tool fix again
Game is back to running in DX12, issue is still there, although it seemed less prevalent for some reason
Anyway, thanks for all your help, for now I'll just ignore the issue, the guys want to play

Feel free to ping if anything regarding this issue comes up again

[zinc oak]

Please be sure to submit that bug report. A video would help too if you can get one is it going away and coming back again. SInce it's the first I am hearing of it, I doubt the devs have heard of it yet. or if so maybe not enough to raise alarms about it.

[shrewd leaf]

@zinc oak @forest heart So clearing my sister's cached game files ended up allowing the dragon to spawn. So we slayed the dragon and got her quest complete. Thanks again for the help! Happy questing everyone!

[forest heart]

That's great to hear!

[zinc oak]

The shaders?

[shrewd leaf]

She deleted all the caches in Chrome, the downloaded files and cookies. That's the only thing she did between yesterday and today.

[zinc oak]

Nothing in chrome's cache should affect the game in any way. I am guessing maybe whatever the issue was maybe resolved by exiting the game or even restarting the computer if she did that.

But I am very glad to hear she got her dragon back 😄

Merry Dragonkill day to you both 😄

[shrewd leaf]

That's what I was thinking, but it's the only difference. I'm just glad it spawned. Thanks again!

[forest heart]

o.O Okay, i thought you meant steams caches... yea that's strange.

Either way, we take the win 😄

[shrewd leaf]

I thought she did the game caches too, but when I asked her, she said the Chrome caches. The only thing I could possibly think was that a downloaded file was corrupted and messing up the correct file. I'm happy it was resolved!! Thanks again! 😁

[royal quarry]

Hey, any fix for this? Its annoying as hell

[forest heart]

What are you referencing?

[royal quarry]

There's grass at the border of my field, i spent the last 20mins undermining this trying to fix it but nothing works

[forest heart]

Have you tried putting the soil 'underneath' the path as well?

[royal quarry]

Sadly yes

[forest heart]

Have you tried using blocks to delete that edge then reapplying the soil?

[zinc oak]

dig down deeper/to the sides and replace with the soil. it should fix the issue. basically since the voxels merge to become smooth this happens when they do.

[royal quarry]

Yep

[royal quarry]

Already did, the area is like 3x the field now, still wont work

[zinc oak]

It doesn't cause any issues though, it's just appearances. you will still get the soil bonus.

[forest heart]

Then, my only other suggest.... cover it with plants 😄

[royal quarry]

Ik but my brain can't take this 😂

[zinc oak]

I get that more than you know. I spend hours on something I'll never see again. xD

[royal quarry]

Yeees LMAO

[zinc oak]

The only thing I can think of is to temporarily cover over it and to the sides, just in case there are some sneaky invisible voxels hiding above ground.

[forest heart]

What happens if you build you 'edge' one block in?

Do you just push the grass patch with it or?

[royal quarry]

No i would be fine, but it would kinda kill the look of the base

[forest heart]

Okay, how about digging down, beneath both the soil and the path, putting down a layer of 'pavement' then putting the soil and path back on top?

So there's no grass for the soil to mesh with.

[royal quarry]

will try

[zinc oak]

make sure to leave space for 2 at least 2 layers of dirt, otherwise plants will despawn.

[royal quarry]

i mean

[zinc oak]

did you replace that soil when you encased the bottom?

[royal quarry]

time to remove my altar and log out i guess

[royal quarry]

yeah

[forest heart]

I'd suggest using the foundation blocks to remove the ground beneath entirely.

[zinc oak]

there is soil somewhere. I am guessing tiny pieces you can't see floating somewhere

[royal quarry]

Cleared it with foundations & it worked

[royal quarry]

And i found something floating and removed it

Ty!

[forest heart]

👍

[zinc oak]

No problem. glad you got it fixed 🙂

[vale prism]

Hey everyone!

I have that issue where light sources stop working shortly after launching game play.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the file. I did a file check in steam.

Any ideas?

[silver shell]

I share your hope for wisp of light II as well. I like flare arrows; they're inconsistent, but still really nice to have. Flare and explosive arrows stay in my inventory 24/7.

[buoyant pike]

Hello, i have a serv on nitrado, and i can't join today. It say my serv is full, Why?

[zinc oak]

If you have already made sure all your drivers are up to date you might have to clear out enshrouded's shader folder, located here: ...\Steam\steamapps\shadercache\1203620\

[zinc oak]

#server-support should be able to help you

[silver shell]

It's just when they fly through walls or provide terrible lighting while I'm trying to save my ass in a high stakes moment that really irks me. The flare arrows that is.

[buoyant pike]

Ok thanks !

[zinc oak]

Unfortunately there isn't a fix for this issue. I would suggest either reporting it as a bug from inside the game, or adding (or upvoting, search for the suggestion first) a suggestion to the enshrouded suggestions page here: https://enshrouded.featureupvote.com/

[grave basin]

Hello, I looked to see if I could find something here, but couldn't find anything, so I'll just ask. I have a new PC and I can't join a locally hosted game or anyone on it. This works without any problems on my laptop. I searched the internet but only found old posts about it, but unfortunately no solution either. I reinstalled the game, deleted my saves from the Steam cloud, watched a video from the developers with possible solutions, cursed my computer a hundred times, but nothing seemed to help. Does anyone of you know the problem and also happen to know a solution???
English is not my native language so sorry

[zinc oak]

Your English or translation is perfect. no need for an apology. Are you able to see the servers in the server list at all?

[grave basin]

Yes and I can also enter the password, but then it loads dead

[zinc oak]

Does it crash, stay on the loading screen forever or just goes back to the menu?

[grave basin]

Every now and then it goes back to the start screen, but most of the time it loads and doesn't stop, I let it run for an hour

And that's how it is when someone wants to join my game

[zinc oak]

Okay - does this also happen when you try to play a solo game? and what are your PC Specs?

[grave basin]

I can play solo at high resolution without any problems and I can also get into my hosted game without any problems. My PC is way beyond the max requirements of the game

[zinc oak]

It's fine if it's above the requirements, but we ask because sometimes there are issues with certain GPU's or other components that may give us insight into the issue.

[grave basin]

With other online multiplay games everything works without any problems, only Enshraudet doesn't want to

[zinc oak]

But go ahead and turn off your Shader Pre-caching in steam and see if that resolves the issue.

All games are different, and how they interact with the system is different.

[grave basin]

I'll try that, just for a moment

[tame palm]

Back with another issue. Somehow the game refuses to stack terrain and building blocks into chests any more, how can I fix that?

[zinc oak]

How do you mean? Like when you hit Shift-R all the items don't go in, or like they aren't stacking at all, and placed one by one?

[tame palm]

I press shift+R, and everything goes into chests. Exept stuff like Wood, Stone, and other placeable blocks

[forest heart]

If it's the Shift + R Options, make sure they're not set as 'equipped' that will stop them.

[zinc oak]

and there is a corresponding item in the chest?

[tame palm]

Yeah

Now I'm trying again and it works

The heck, this has been bugging me all day, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't

[zinc oak]

There have been some people mentioning certain items are having problems, but I believe it to be a bug in the game, so unfortunately no fix. I would report it via F1 in the game and give as much detail as possible - your computer specs, the items having issues and even a copy of your save folder if it's in a solo world or a world you are hosting.

[grave basin]

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to help, it's still charging

[tame palm]

I see, thanks for letting me know. Will submit

Found out why
If I pick up stones form the open world, they don't deposit
If I pick up stones from the chest, they deposit

[zinc oak]

Okay - The next step would be to clear the download cache in steam and if that doesn't work, follow the instructions from this comment here:
#troubleshooting message

[zinc oak]

definitely add that to the report. 😄

that could be a good clue to them as to why it's happening.

[tame palm]

Alright, sent

[zinc oak]

Hopefully they'll be able to figure out what is causing it soon and have that on one of the next patches 🙂

[tame palm]

Hmm, I think I see why
Sometimes the icon in the top is bright green, and it doesn't stack, sometimes it's dull green and it deposits

[zinc oak]

I believe that icon means the item is equipped.

[forest heart]

That's what i mentioned earlier.

[tame palm]

Then it seems like the game sometimes automatically equips multiple building blocks simultaneously as you pick them up in the world?
I just picked up two rocks
One was bright green, the other wasn't

[zinc oak]

were they different types of block?

If you don't have anything equipped in your build hammer it will equip the first item it can when you pick it up of each type.

so 1 terrain, one building block and 1 roof.

[tame palm]

I don't have a hammer on me

[forest heart]

I've seen varying reports and that seems to be the common denominator. Though basic stone has always had the issue, with the others it's normally because of being equipped.

[zinc oak]

lol not sure if it matters.

Since a hammer can be in your inventory or in some box somewhere or in your toolbar, I am guessing it just does it automatically either way.

It's not something you would notice unless something was going wrong like this.

[light hornet]

Since the last patch my shaders never seem to compile. They carry on in the background but at like 1% every few minutes maybe. Means I cant see things like projectiles or anything as they arent rendered or anything

Anyone else with the issue?

If I have to uninstall I wont be re-installing lol

[zinc oak]

I haven't heard anything about this specific issue, but there have been other shader related issues.

[grave jewel]

For some reason whenver playing in a server with two people, suddenly mobs stop spawning. Has this happened to anyone?

[zinc oak]

Is your shader precaching turned on or off?

[zinc oak]

Try over in #server-support they may have a fix for you.

[light hornet]

I didnt even know I could see in game that it was still going until someone mentioned. Loaded in at like 28%, 5/10mins later it was 30%...

[light hornet]

Whatever the default setting is...

only been an issue since this last patch

steam verified the files too

[zinc oak]

who knows. xD open up steam settings click on "downloads" and it's near the bottom.

[light hornet]

it is on then :p
