I am exhausted from this tonight.
Even with settings on performance. Still struggling.
Thereโs like a whole second delay in response. What could that be?
Yeah, it just gets stuck on preprocessing now... I think imma just request a refund.
Forgive me - did I have you do all the minidump steps? It's been a long day
and did I have you try turning pre-processing off in steam?
Uhh, no?
(not sure if that effects it)
I believe with steam it downloads a preprocessed shader pack outside the loading, but it may have an effect on the preprocessing in game
I even took apart my computer to see if the m.2 was seated right because I randomly started having a disk write error when I tried to uninstall and re download
That could be something, actually. Did you run chkdsk or anything?
if you have bad sectors and the game keeps trying to write to them while preprocessing, that would be an outcome.
I did a while back, the disk is less than a year old
And by a while back it was less than two months ago
Were you getting disk write errors then too?
Once yes
But I never used a screw to put down the ssd, I just used the plate that went over it, but I got it screwed down now.
you might want to try something other than chkdsk then. It's a pattern of behavior of your drive, and not a good one.
what launch option?
Those videos are the bane of my existence. lol. It's why I made my own. The game doesn't even use DirectX
Also turn off compatibility mode if you did that too.
and you can uninstall visual C++... and all the other crap people said to install ๐คฃ
Those are basically recycled fixes for other games.
I didn't install visual c
But I think i turned on compatability
How do I turn off steam preshaders?
Nope, no compatability is on
steam settings > downloads near the bottom
OK let me reset my pc rq
Sorry... lol. Those videos have made a few troubleshooting sessions more complicated than they needed to be, if you can't tell.
Yeah, is why I completely understand installed and deleted after every "fix"
And no need to apologize
and because they are so old and "viewed more" YT recommends them first.
Yeah - I saw after you had already come in here. lol
It says allow background processing for Vulcan shades too? ๐ค
Just turn them both off
it probably won't work, but it's worth a shot
OK it launched right away.
Let's try to load in
There's a few times where I managed to get past the preprocessing but when I tried to load my save, it just got stuck at the loading screen.
Did it let you in?
Nope, I restarted my pc again and started again and it's back to preprocessing
Can you toss your log file in here again?
Should I wait and see if the preprocessing finishes?
yeah give it 10 minutes or so
Okeyy
When I tried the command in terminal it said that Vulkan wasn't up to date. It said I was on 3. Something.
And the new one was 4. Something
Amd said update my driver
But my driver is up to date
Vulkan isn't your drivers, those are different.
Should I try to update Vulkan?
I don't think I ever messed with that
I vaguely remember doing something with it when I use to play pokemon on an emulator
I think the emulator has their own build in vulkan thing
I didn't send you there already? https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home
You download the runtime installer for windwos
hello there ... i have been playing now more than 30 hours and i'm lvl 25 and i didn't get the Medium Backpack or large one from hunter quests
The backpacks are made on the bard.
Heres the log again
Thanks alot
okay let me have a look
OK, after installing vulkan, it's launching every time to the main manu
Yeah your version was pretty old
It's working again!!
๐ Even if it continues to work, I would check out that drive with something better than chkdsk just to be sure you don't have a bad sector. Those errors aren't good to see.
Imma try to see how it being screwed down works. If not I'll check it again.
I think I used crystal disk info last time and it said it was good
But I'll check again
nemesis
Iโm going on a 26 hour flight later today. Iโd love to get some kind of improvement if possible.
Can anyone help me ? I have big Problems with the Game. The Support dont answer me. Many Times on a random Moment in the Game my whole PC Freeze and makes a hard reset. I have no idea what i can do against that. PLS Help ๐ฆ
Please type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
You were having the performance issues, IIRC, right?
How can i use the enshrouded tool fix ? i downloaded ist but i only can open it in editor ?
You don't need to download it.
- Type
Powershellin your window's search bar - Right click on the "Windows Powershell" program that comes up and click "Run as Administrator"
- Type the following command in the window that pops up:
irm "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LiaNdrY/Enshrouded-Tool-Fix/main/Enshrouded_Tool_Fix.ps1" | iex - Restart your computer after it's complete.
okay it asks me to disable gameDVR. Yes or no ?
It's fine to disable
Okay thank you its done. Now im going to do the next steps
you want to restart your computer, and also check in-between each step
okay allright thank you
now i got a endless loading screen while starting. In the under right corner showd enshrouded Preprocessing and endless loading
nvm its done XD
Ya. Thatโs correct. Itโs still very sluggish. A second delay in response time to the mouse and controls.
And poor frame rate
Would you please drag and drop a copy of your log file into this chat?
You can access the log file by opening up your Steam library and right clicking on "Enshrouded" in the list. Click on "Properties" and then "Installed Files" in the main box, click "Browse" and this will open up your game folder.
The file you are looking for is named "Enshrouded.log" or could also just look like a text file named "Enshrouded" if you have file extensions turned off.
Ah. The issue is that your GPU doesn't have the required VRAM to run the game. the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU only came with 4gb vram and the game needs 6. You can try turning your texture resolution down to minimum and decreasing your games resolution, but it will only do so much, and it's possible that any new update could stop you from playing the game entirely.
There are other options, such as using geforce now or another cloud gaming platform, however you would need a good and stable internet connection to use it.
Well thatโs started my day off horribly ๐ฉ
Steam will allow you to return the game if it doesn't work on your system, as long as you haven't played it a ton.
but they generally are forgiving of the 2-hour limit
Not played it at all. Still in the first room.
Thank you for your help. Much appreciated. Any guidance on a minimum spec laptop would be grateful if you can?! If not, thank you all the same. Appreciate your time.
I don't know too much about laptops, but I know it's difficult to find them with a decent amount of vram due to a lack of space
Ok. Thank you.
The two laptops I have in the household - both have 8GB of dedicated VRAM - one has a 3070 and the other a 4070 mobile GPU. They are out there but do tend to be on the more expensive side of the spectrum. I'm in the UK and both laptops were north of ยฃ1000. Both also came with 16GB of system RAM in addition to the VRAM and was not shared between the two.
Thanks. I am gonna sell this one and get something better. A grand is about my limit though. I donโt game enough to warrant spending more.
But Iโll probably get a used machine.
If you could DM me the models you have Iโd greatly appreciate that?! @buoyant grotto
That's ok. One of them is now out of production due to its age, so I won't bother with that one. I'll send the details of the other.
Thank you. Appreciate it.
Details of both sent. I have sent the details of the 3070, mainly for comparison. Good luck with your search. I've already upgraded my laptop quite a bit, added RAM, and NVME above the base line.... I'm just an inveterate tinkerer!
Thanks man. Iโll take a look.
I can't seem to get past the initial cut scene. It goes black, then nothing. I've reinstalled, checked graphics card and drivers. Tried Steam in admin mode. Any ideas?
Uhm, quick question. I haven't played for some months at least, so I don't know when it was implemented..
There seems to be something like adaptive exposure or eye adaptation now and it really gets in the way with base building. It darkens down everything around me when I change my view angle and accidentally look at the sun, making it hard/impossible to see the block I'm trying to place. This is really no fun at all and I was so happy about the recent update...
Any way to switch that off? or at least does someone know the settings needed to at least make it visually disappear without the game looking plastic? :/ I'm kinda desperate, I'll even take ini tweaks if there is any
hmm in one of my saves recently i found that.. issue with save or game is missing model for one of props on map ?

Steam refunded me. ๐๐ฝ
It mostly happens at dawn or dusk. during the day it shouldn't be so bad. The devs have taken steps to fixing the issue, but it's proving a bit more complicated than it appears.
There is no setting for it because it's a feature that is not acting as intended. We just have to wait until they can track down the issue, hopefully soon.
Certain items that may have been placed using CE or gotten from resource worlds that used CE have been having this issue, as ID's of some items were changed.
I think I found a machine. Is it OK to post the spec here to see if itโll run the game smoothly?
Sorry for all the questions. Iโm getting on a 26 hour flight in a few hours so trying to sort stuff out before I leave.
All I can tell you is whether or not the specs are above minimum. Laptops are cranky beasts, I can't promise it will run smoothly out of the gate.
Ok.
Elimna RTX-4060, 2TB storage, 32GB Ram, Ryzen7 7735HS
I am so out the loop with PC specs now. It moves so fast.
I have never heard of Elimna
The specs themselves are more than capable of handling the game. Though on the lower tier of the 40x series that specific GPU has 8gb VRAM, which is capable of running the game.
I can't speak for PC Specialist - the apparent manufacturer, as I don't know anything about them.
It also has an integrated GPU, though, which has been known to cause issues with gaming on laptops, but if you can get them to configure the laptop not to use the GPU or disable it, you shouldn't have problems. I say "shouldn't" because nothing is guaranteed when you have convinced magic crystals to display games for you. ๐
lol. Ok. I understand. Thank you.
is keen ever going to do anything about the mini dump crash none of the step in here work
The minidump isn't the crash - it's the dump of information that happens. People crash for many reasons - most of which are individual to their own setup.
so no then got it
It's not something they can do anything about without going to every person's house and literally fixing their setup. ๐คฃ
IIRC, Your issue is with your computer not recognizing the right GPU.
why only with this game?
Vulkan, probably. or drivers. or one of a billion other reasons, because every game is different. lol
says missing the enshrouded_local.json file where can i get that ?
That json is created when you start up the game. Since you have not successfully started the game, you don't have one. It's your settings file.
Since last update my mouse freezes from time to time, the FPS and everything runs normal, it's just that my mouse doesnt work for 1 or 2 seconds, anyone else had this experience?
not trying to be a butt hole or mean just want to play my fav game
have you tried restarting your PC?
It loaded when you disabled your integrated card, right?
yeah just laggy for some reason dont have a potato for a pc running a 4070
just tried, same problem ๐ฆ
Probably something to do with it trying to do a hybrid graphics setup. Unfortunately I don't know enough about laptops and how that all works to give you any suggestions, but I am sure if you ask around on a reddit or support group for your laptop, someone might be able to point you in the right direction. It's probably a setting in the bios
Just to be sure, is it a wired or wireless mouse?
They can be a bit dodgy in games, especially if the dongle is obstructed. My husband had a similar issue in a couple games because he put the dongle in the back of his system. Worked fine in windows, but not so much with those couple of games.
You can try moving the dongle to a USB port up front. I would also update the drivers.
Also try verifying your game files as well.
And check your resource load. An overloaded CPU or GPU could cause the issue as well.
Sorry about the info dump - lol - heading to bed before the sun comes up and wanted to get as much as I could think of before heading out
Hello, I want to troubleshoot here (apart from the server moving problem) since the last update my game has gone completely unstable, previously it was working just fine in 60FPS, but after the newest update I get those lag spikes where my screen basically freezes for 1s and the character just keeps running straight. Any idea what might cause it? The PC is not the newest one for sure - GTX 1060, but it used to really work fine.
Just to add here - I have two laptops, both of which are hybrid systems. Neither of them have any issues switching between the APU graphics and the dedicated graphics, and will run Enshrouded without any problems, maybe a bit slower than my desktop rig. One is a 3070 and the other is a 4070. It may help that I regularly update the drivers on both of them to have the most up to date drivers from both AMD for the APU and Nvidia for the dedicated GPU side. I have had no need to disable the APU graphics on either of them.
Their system refuses to load the right GPU.
what are your settings/resolution set at?
Well mostly Performance 1920x1080
The weird thing is the drop in the performance since the patch
I let it do the shaders as well of course
I understand that - and that's why I added the information regarding keeping the driver sets updated for BOTH sets of graphics - APU & GPU. I use DDU every time to remove any trace of old drivers to ensure no conflicts with the new driver. So far this has worked.
If I set everything to the lowest it does get a bit better, but that's not the point. It then looks like minecraft ๐
With the 1060 - that's probably too high. Also a huge difference is whether you have the 3gb or the 6gb. the 3gb is under spec to play the game, and will have issues no matter what you try.
First point it used to work much better before the update, second point it has 6GB
You are playing with a minimum spec GPU. Minimum spec = minimum settings.
For the same reason people were able to run the game on underspec systems before. The game is still being developed. It was smaller back then and bigger now.
And another small maybe irrelevant point Cyberpunk has better performance for me
Cyberpunk requires less.
Also not on lowest settings
It's also a 5 year old game.
OK I understand, but patches should in theory make the game better, more stable and optimized
Cyberpunk isnt a voxel game! Enshrouded is! Voxel games by their very nature are much more resource hungry.
Right, it's obviously not the same engine or anything that's why I said it might be irrelevant to some extend
Just ignore that point then
But interesting to me anyways
And they do. But they are also still creating the game. I mean a huge section of the world isn't even completed yet
And also another point to consider. My gf has much worse PC then I do and her game is more stable. I believe she runs a AMD though. Might it be connected? Same settings of course
I believe it has same amount of VRAM
It's comparable for sure, should be worse - the graphic card
Perhaps a better drive
Could be anything. Her GPU might be a bit better, her CPU might be. She may be running less things in the background. I can't answer that without more information.
Both are worse according to benchmarks
I have nothing running in background apart from Discord
I changed from HDD to SSD ...I had a ton of stutters...it's a different ball game now.
NVME not sata, makes all the difference ๐
Ok well that might be part of the problem. But just the drop between patches is unbearable
yeah - this game shouldn't be run on an HDD. That really should be in their minimum specs.
there is just too much data being accessed.
Trust me, do that, get the cheapest SSD you can find...I found out that this game really likes speed on drive...It changed the game entirely for me...
I understand every hardware argument I really do, but the patch should not so drasticly decrease performance for no visible improvement in the grapics and I don't get how benchmark-wise worse PC in every way apart from drive can run the game better, while before the patch it was the other way around. For her nothing changes for me it got almost unplayable
It's an EA game, not a fully released game. There will be hiccups.
If they added improvements, some that you might not see, but the HARD DRIVE will feel, taking alot more time to load...maybe that's ...the reason...for the spikes ๐
So I'm simply asking for a reason or help. What should I decrease then? What changed?
What changes last patch that made it like this and what should I change in my settings to fix the issue
And answer upgrade hardware or set everything to lowest is kinda lazy?
You can fix any problem like that
Just get an SSD...simplest ever sollution...
Or let me rephrase - what settings do you recommend?
I would start on max performance. Increase voxel detail models up one as well as small foliage. Turn point light shadows off. This should give you a better looking game without performance crunches.
Do we know what changed in the update specifically? That impacts the performance to this degree?
If it runs well you can try increasing other settings.
I seem to not be alone in this - https://www.reddit.com/r/Enshrouded/comments/1igmw0x/absurdly_low_fps_and_stuttering_after_update/ better specs as well - SSD 2070
So something I think is a problem right?
I have given you the settings recommendation. I am going to bed now.
Sorry. it's 5am. and I am too old for pulling all-nighters anymore. ๐คฃ
Understandable
Did you try using FSR ?
FSR3 right now
Even turning if off same thing?
Play with the graphical settings, I believe they are sorting DLSS, FSR and all that out.
I use DLSS but my GPU is not reacting in any way , maybe slightly better when it should be a huge FPS boost.
3080ti with med to high with DLSS only gets 80-90 fps with 60 lows is absurd, but maybe that's a future fix...
Of course it's in development can't expect things to run perfectly, but at the same time some information on what the patch impacted might be useful
It's weird that AMD card seems to handle it well
Even though it's worse
You can check that yourself on the patch notes area. Not really much shown there but It should say something.
What is the amd card in question?
I will get back with that information, but as said benchmark wise should be around mine.
Some say it's a bit worse some a bit better but we are talking about used years old card anyways
also cpu and if it's an ssd/hdd is important
Probably RX570 580 4/8gigs.
CPU is much worse but again as said she is using SSD where I am using HDD
But I'm most intrested in what changed that patch
That already makes a big difference
What's the impact
Still drops and much lower overall FPS
Now it's around 20
Around 40 with FSR3
Hmmm. So that works, in a way.
Can you share your log file?
Tried resolution scaling lower?
Sure, how do I do that?
Finding your logs:
For better and faster troubleshooting, please share game logs along with your message.
Open File Explorer
- Navigate to your Steam folder, by default it should be in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam.
- Find the following file: [...]\Steam\steamapps\common\Enshrouded\enshrouded.log
โ ๏ธ If you do not have "show known file extensions" in Windows Explorer active, the relevant file will appear only as "enshrouded", with no extension and file type "Text Document".
Copy and Paste the log file into Discord
- Head over to #troubleshooting and paste the log file into the channel.
Here
No, but I might need to at that point
But it's gonna make the game look so bad probably
Not really, just take it step by step...easily lowering it...I can't find any other options for now...and get an ssd asap ๐ญ
Your settings are to high for your card and you already use more than half your system ram
Whole PC needs to be changed at that point
Im not arguing that it's old, very old
What he/she said :-s
But the question stands - what changed in the patch that made such a huge impact that on the same settings did work very well and now it's horrible
All I'm asking
Did you check the patch notes?
Briefly
I thought someone might have a ready answer here - idk disable shadows ๐
Since reddit seems to have a problem in general on better hardware
Maybe something that doesn't sound big but it affected your HARDWARE changed... that might not be affect other hardware...
Yeah that's what I'm thinking and trying to figure out
It might take ages to figure that out, even having 2 almost identical systems you might find differences in FPS and/or graphics.
Could also be a driver issue
Trust me, I build Pc's , I see alot of things daily basis.
Doesn't mean that those can't have issues
Of course
But I believe it was after game update not driver update, I believe that came later. But I cannot be sure now
Either way, do a clean driver install to get that out of the bag.
If driver was faulty it would most likely affect other games as well
Have you tried checking the system files? Maybe something is corrupted.
Or reinstalling the game maybe.
Just throwing possible easy and non-hardwared related fixes ๐
I have not tried either, but system files would again affect everything and reinstalling the game - well could try it, but I don't think it would help. Ok well if nobody knows what latest patch changed that can be fixed easily then I don't think I can get much more help
I just thought judging from reddit that's it's a bigger issue with this update
I am just saying mabe one or more files didn't install corectly, that happens especially with EA games...
I will run a Steam integrity scan later on
You can check the files and also do a clean reinstall, if that does not fix it, well, we need to wait for a "supperior" help.
Okay ! God bless.
Thank you
This is still a player run support channel
Yes...And? I just said maybe some helpers might have different ideas ๐
It's a 1060 that runs it on to high settings on a HDD
I did mention that, also both are true, but his problems started after the update...which ...something needs to be done ๐
The only point I'm making here is very simple - it used to work on previous update well, now it lags randomly while most of the time working fine enough. What did the update impact? Can I disable that feature or lower that setting. Simple answers like upgrade hardware or make everything the lowest possible are of course viable but not really helpful or insightful. I do not seem to be alone in those issues since last patch as well.
I am not making a point that my hardware is good or even sufficient
Additionally same settings on worse hardware seems to still work as it did, might be useful.
Maybe they made things require faster HDD/SSD Speed...Idk ...I'm throwing things out...But for your future get one :))
Big differences is AMD and SSD
I'm still waiting on said hardware
Maybe
And I will not be able to provide it until she comes home from work. She does not remember it and I do not know it.
Would guess RX580, we had similar performance prepatch
Right, she did upgrade RAM, she has 32GB now, might also be part of the reason why it works better. Of course. Worse CPU for sure, much worse.
It's just additional information not really the core issue.
Core question as it stands is what patch influenced that had such an impact on the performance and is there a way to only target that in settings.
You only have Discord open right?
That is correct.
We both do if that matters.
When we play. Now I'm testing so browser open as well
12/16GB of RAM used with open game like that
40% CPU usage and 20% graphics 2% HDD according to the Task Manager
The HDD % changes when you are in game...so use other software to show you exactly when you are in game.
Spiking to 50% HDD and CPU
Yeah the HDD will change when it loads obviously
it will go to 100% when I for example fly.
But the spikes seem random sometimes in base as well
Where everything is loaded
Do you have just 1 drive? For OS and games/enshrouded?
2 drives SSD with OS HDD with games
Dang it ๐ฆ
You know, I am not trying to troubleshoot why her PC is working now better then mine that's besides the point. I am trying to troubleshoot what in the latest update made it so bad for me ๐
Ok so got her GPU
Rx 580
As guessed.
Yea, also RADEON GPU's work hell of a lot better with FSR If i'm not mistaking.
She has worse CPU but SSD and more RAM
Regardless of power/generation.
Huh maybe that's why, yeah would make sense
She gets 0 issues on the same settings
Stable game
As I stated before maybe they worked on a DLSS/FSR update...which changed something for GPU's. Just throwing this out there...
Right right would make a lot of sense
Yes, I am willing to bet that if you change to SSD your game should change for the better...
For now, at least.
For sure, but at that point I'm looking to buy a new PC so won't upgrade that one, doesn't really make sense, It's like 8 years old ๐
But I am waiting for a game worthy of that upgrade
GTA 6, Hogwarts Legacy 2, Witcher 4 something like that
Maybe then I can get 4080s much cheaper
It's not if I have a possibility of upgrade but more of if I have a reason ^^
40's and 50's wont get cheaper this year trust me.
Go for the AMD Ones, they will always be a better choice for the money at least.
This is another topic entirely not connected to Enshrouded whatsover I don't want to make the gods of this server mad
So, first of all, try to reinstall it or check the files, second get a ssd it might be cheap...so it's not a bad choice , fast choice for now...
Ill also probably decrease resolution scale
Not to much , but yea, it's a FPS boost vs graphic degrade...so take it baby steps until it's playable/enjoyable.
And will turn off point light shadows as Mama Kira suggested
btw, we couldn't reproduce this, has it occured again?
Morning folks! Ran into a strange bug today where my build menu didn't think I had any materials on me. I'm not currently using the magic chest option, though it is turned on - I just don't have any chests at the altar I'm at currently. Took a little video showing the issue, hope it uploads okay. Also sorry if this has already been reported, I have not been keeping up with the Discord lately.
And it looks like the video uploaded weird, great
Apologies, this should be in a file format Discord supports
So, a friend of mine has been hosting the world, but we decided that i shall host the game for now. Few questions: where do i find the save/world files so we can transfer them to me
And also, she's running on Win11 + Nvidia GPU, im on Win 10 and AMD GPU, will there be any issues transferring?
Thanks in advance :)
Please use F1 ingame to report the bug :3
Thank you, I forgot that was a thing!
Yes, I sent a bug report. At day the "square" is just differet color tones. I'll take a screeshot asap.
Could you please provide us with a savegame?
I submitted a bug through the game and sent the info to the email that I got afterward!
Okay perfect!
One last thing, could you please give me the ticket number?
70957 is the bug report number according to my email
Thanks! 
i need help! where building a massive underground base, yet every 3 minutes i hear a peacock screaming through my speakers?
Where do we find this bird ? and how do we kill it ?
@zinc oak I follow every step you did in your video and my game keep crashing, the only issue I have was with the volkan (error red message)
Heyya, sorry to bother you, but the game started doing it again. I ended up downloading it to my main SSD. It works, so I checked my gaming SSD. All the sectors were good. Do you think that the files being on two different drives could be the cause? Main game being on one, then the dependencies like save files and stuff being on the other? That's the only think I can think of that could have been causing my issue.
Hey, does anyone know about this issue?
When I play Enshrouded on any server, my ping jumps to 800ms as soon as the game is the active window. But if I alt-tab to another app (like a browser) or minimize the game, the ping instantly drops to 50ms.
My FPS stays stable, so itโs not a performance issue.
Discord also starts lagging when Enshrouded is focused, but works fine when I switch to another window.
Running the game in borderless windowed mode doesnโt fix it.
My internet connection is stable, and other online games donโt have this issue.
It feels like Enshrouded is somehow messing with network traffic when it's the active window. Anyone else had this problem or know a fix?

The "latest": 2, means that 38d857c4-2 was the last updated version of this world save. Your friend should send this to you. Or, they can zip up 38d857c4* and send it to you.
On your side, you want to determine if you have any EMPTY slots available, so you don't overwrite any of your existing worlds. For example, let's say you have a bunch of files with 3ad85aea, and 3bd85c7d, and 38d857c4, but no files with 39d85957. 39d85957 will be an "empty" slot. Take the 38d857c4-2 they sent you, or if they sent you all 38d857c4 files, you will need to open the 38d857c4-index file to determine which was the most recent update. We'll continue with 38d857c4-2 as the example. Extract 38d857c4-2 somewhere and rename it to you "empty" slot. As above, using the example 39d85957. Just rename this single file to 39d85957 (no -1 or -2 or -index, just this one file) and place it in your world save directory.
Start your client up, click play or host and this should now show up in your list of saved world. The client will build any necessary files it needs.
Sorry, What do you mean about vulkan and the red message?
It's possible. There are many things that changing the drive it's on could change or fix, but I am glad it's working for you. ๐
Games don't always accurately report ping when unfocused.
My friends aren't able to join while i"m offline, the ip I have set through my ipconfig ip isn't working for them. My husband is able to connect through the IP but he's also in the same house.
Try #server-support
Tried to play Enshrouded lastnight for the first time since the update and it either crashes or is stuttering every few seconds. All other games I normally play work just fine. It did it even on the lowest settings possible. Unplayable.
Please type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
Hi all, can anyone help me identify why the game keeps crashing? before it crashed infrequently, then I updated my graphics drivers using DDU and now I cant be in the game for more then 5 mins.
Did you do the rest of the steps in the /minidump DM?
I did verify integrity, I then uninstalled it from steam and currently reinstalling it. I will try steps 2-3 shortly once its reinstalled.
as im running liandrys this pops up. Is this an indication what is wrong?
When you ran the rest of it, did you get a popup to install vulkan runtime?
Yes it said it installed vulkan runtime
Did you get a popup for it though?
No I did not
okay go ahead and restart like it asks and try the game. if you are still having issues we'll install it manually
okay thank you
I crashed again
Okay, Would you please drag and drop a copy of your log file into this chat?
You can access the log file by opening up your Steam library and right clicking on "Enshrouded" in the list. Click on "Properties" and then "Installed Files" in the main box, click "Browse" and this will open up your game folder.
The file you are looking for is named "Enshrouded.log" or could also just look like a text file named "Enshrouded" if you have file extensions turned off.
This is the log file in the common/enshrouded folder if you want the crash_dump folder file I can provide that as well
Did you start the game after it crashed?
no I did not
So it crashed after an alt tab?
I did alt tab but it crashed ~2 minutes after that
Okay. Is it crashing to desktop or are you just getting booted out of the online game?
its crashing to desktop with a popup
Okay let me scan through the rest of this and I'll get back to you in a moment
Just to clarify what I am seeing in here - do you alt-tab frequently?
I just want to eliminate these process priority messages as an issue
Not usually. I did it before that crash because I was bringing up this disc
So the log doesn't have any specific errors telling me something is going on - at least not to my eyes. We can go ahead and install the latest vulkan runtime though, see if that helps. I would also disable all your overlays too see if they may be doing something as well.
So vulkan is here: https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home - you want the runtime installer for windows.
And here is how to turn off all your overlays.
Im only familiar with nvidia overlay, which is disabled. Is there any else I should be aware of?
discord and steam
maybe others if you use any software that has them - but those are the typical one almost everyone has
ive disabled those three
runtime installer downloaded
Should I run liandrys again?
Sorry I got pulled away, but go ahead and start up your game, if you haven't already
I did it crashed again.
Im currently investigating if its something with my system
okay and did you rename the json and do the DDU from the bot suggestions already?
Yes
Okay so when you crash, does it seem to happen after a certain amount of time, or in a specific location or any kind of pattern that you have noticed?
Sorry It's dinner time so I am only here partially - but use a monitoring tool like GPU-Z to check temperatures and loads to see if something is getting overloaded - if not maybe try rolling back drivers. There are several other suggestions that could work for you in that video I liked for the overlays as well that could be helpful.
Its totally fine I appreciate your help! no :\ sometimes the games fine for 3+ hours other times it crashes back to back within 5 minutes
Hello there : i would like to know how to Get more desigh like for Ex: -( The Rough Wood block looks normal when i build it .. and i saw some ppl when they build the corner of there block look cool ) is there a quests or Lvl i have to reach it?
One of the game settings determines whether blocks show the extra details or not. i don't remember the name of the specific setting
what i mean is the block styles like ( Engle and cornor) it's looks much better than mine ..
Voxel detail models.
Were you able to find anything snooping around on your system?
Thank you for checking in! Im going to try reinstalling the OS and hoping that fixes it
Oh wow. Alright - I'll see you on the flip side. I hope it helps โค๏ธ
Thank's alot thats help me alot and help my Eyes
Hey guys, I have a server that me and two other people play on, and while one is able to join and play but the other just encounters a black screen and the loading screen but never actually loads, he has tried everything such as verifying integrity, restarting router, reinstalling, we just cant figure it out. Any help would be appreciated ๐
What is their GPU?
7800xt
okay. and are they able to join any other games?
yes
have you restarted your server?
its more of a locally hosted thing sorry, but ive closed it and reopened it
Okay and the 7800xt is theirs, not yours yes?
yea his is 7800xt mine is 7900 xtx
I'm honestly not sure. If they are able to join other enshrouded games/servers and other people are able to join you, that rules out a P2P issue with either of you.
beyond that it's likely some kind of networking or steam issue, as I believe it's all routed through steam. You may want to check in #server-support - they know a lot more about the networking/multiplayer aspects than I do.
Hello!
I think i'm having some issues with my shadows/fog but I honestly don't know if its my PC or if the game is indeed supposed to look like this (Based on videos I watched, mine seems pretty messed up). I noticed mostly the lack of shadows on trees/grass and the lack of that blue fog.
Im using an 7800xt with 25.2.1 drivers and the screenshots were taken with the max quality preset.
The "blue fog" is only in the shroud - and that looks like what the game currently looks like at dawn and dusk hours before the sun comes up actually in the sky. You may be noticing it more if you have extended the day hours and/or shortened the night, as there is no direct lighting from the sky at that time, and it seems to extend those specific hours when you change the time. It should look relatively normal while the sun is in the sky though, right?
Hummm I would say in this biome, it looks like that all throughout the day and at that starting biome I think thats right, did the devs change something with the lighting at some point?
I am sure they have been messing around with it, It would be strange if they weren't. But the daytime lighting should be better when you are in the direct sun - unless you are in the shadow of the mountains or something.
Humm maybe, it looks kinda ugly but atleast its not my graphics card drivers acting up lol
Well, thank you for your help :)
Anyone seen the bug with acquiring the tanning station? Iโm on a friends dedicated server and I am going back to my missed embervale quests. But when I try to re do this one it does not log any progress for me and does not progress the quest
Anyone have this experience and a possible fix?
I have been playing this game without steam cloud enabled. Now for a new game i have enabled steam cloud. My game saves were on my ssd. These do not show up with cloud enabled. My questio can i move saves from sd to cloud?should this not happen autamitically as in other games i play?
anybody free to try and help with the dump crash. It won't stop and I've tried everything online
some times it lasts hours before it crashes. some times it's minutes, some times its seconds
i've done everything i could find online - run as admin, check file integrity, Liandrys tool, reinstalled the game, uninstalled drivers and manually added them, ive done it all
it's so frustrating
Let me send you the screenshot
Some lines are in spanish
Hey there everyone. I have an annoying issue that I haven't found a solution for yet. When I'm aiming with my bow, my character starts to jitter like crazy occasionally. My PC otherwise handles the game with ease even on max settings, so it's presumably not a performance issue. There's no screentearing or anything else which would lead me to believe it's an issue with the refresh rate either.
Not sure if that's the issue but I made a new character with a different hairstyle (I was using the dreadlocks one on the character that encounters the issue) and now the jittering has stopped. This is super annoying though, since I'm unable to change my existing character.
Hi, I've a problem: I cannot see my private steam dedicated server in the list; I've followed the steps & checked the FAQ as well but I need more help I think.
I can find the server when i search for it with ipv4 and add it to my favorites (but it will not show up in the list at all) & when trying to connect by going to steam>view>game servers and connecting from there on out, i get the notification that the server is unavailable or full
ports are forwarded & firewall has been setup as well
I even tried with different ports (and edited those in the json file) that are already open for other game servers i host, same results
is there anyone who could help me figure this out?
I've also posted this in the server-support channel but idk which is the right place to ask about this
Server support should handle this.
this it dosnt matter if im looting or not this just happens
That's very strange. I don't think there's a keybind to open that menu on its own. What key are you pressing to loot? Does this happen in an offline game?
e
Which is the default, yes.
and i dont play offline only with my friend
alright, thanks!
Would you be able to try it on an offline server, just to narrow the scope?
Don't know if this is a server issue or a client issue.
not having the issue offline
most games i play with him i lag a small amount but i dont see how that would affect this game alot?
That's interesting. So it's definitely a server issue. Are they running a dedicated server or are they launching a joinable game?
Joinable
does anyone else have framedrops? When i do a 180 or a quick movement i lose alot of frams like 100+ or so
Hey guys, I need some help. My game is stuck in the loading sequence after the intro. I have 103 minutes played, none of which Iโve actually played the game.
Keep in mind it was mini dump crashing before this downloading the shaders.
I updated drivers, verified files, and what fixed it initially was deleted steams cache.
Updated Enshrouded-Tool-Fix to v1.1.9
- Fixed the algorithm for determining the latest available version of Vulkan RT
i need fasthelp pls
someone got time kicked how can i unkick this
unban dosnt work
You mean kicked from your dedicated server...?
guys i have question does the game has alot of bugs or is it well ?
This is not your PC, devs definitely did something. I have the same problem on my PC and brand new gaming laptop, my friends have it, a bunch of people on reddit, and I also seen some poor guys with the same thing here in discord. The lighting is messed up. It looks like the game's from 2003. The last screenshot is from the older version, so we're not hallucinating here.
I have almost 3 hours of โgame timeโ but I donโt have a single minute of play time.
What are your pc specs?
I meet all the requirements
Even downloaded all the latest drivers
Was crashing over and over but I deleted steams cached data and now it runs but doesnโt go past the loading screen
The only way to "unkick" someone from a Dedicated Server, is to restart the server.
hi, I have a dump file, I was wondering if someone could help me figure out what the problem is that keeps crashing my game?
ive been trying to figure this out for about two weeks, ive replaced my graphics card and everything. Nothing is making sense lmfao
Hi everyone! Been having infrequent crashes to desktop. I tried all the troubleshooting steps, reinstalled OS, Installed latest graphics drivers, etc. Everytime the game crashes I get this in the event viewer. Any idea why it would stop interacting? Should it also be version 0.0.0.0?
I'm order to understand what is going on, we need to know some specifics about your system. There may be something specific to a price of hardware that you have which is causing the issue and without that information we're simply guessing in the dark. If you could please tell us the following: CPU, GPU, RAM, is steam and the game installed in the same drive? Are they installed on the C: drive? Is that drive an SSD or a HDD?
These will help us understand at a baseline what your system is so we can make suggestions.
would you just like the Enshrouded.txt file?
sorry its a .info
oh no, apologies its a txt
CPU i9 14900 (unfortunately, raptor lake, so there is a chance that's the problem, but i've already taken it off turbo mode) 4060, 32 gb, steam, steam and is installed on the c drive, game is installed on an SSD
The game stores the non-cloud saves and the cloud saves in different spots. This means that when you turn it off or on the other won't show up. You can move your games over, however if you have already started a world, it would likely overwrite it, as the save games have a specific name to it. There is a lot more information about it here that will help you find and transfer your files, hopefully without losing anything: https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1233539692591448166
Please type /minidump in this chat and make sure that you did all the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
Liandry just updated the tool - you may want to give it another shot.
Did you do the fixes in the /minidump DM?
Yes
@queen lintel Do you get a specific error code when you launch the game?
no, i launch and play it just fine, then seemingly at random it crashes and creates the dump file
windows event viewer doesn't even grab the error, it's that confusing
Would you please drag and drop a copy of your log file into this chat?
You can access the log file by opening up your Steam library and right clicking on "Enshrouded" in the list. Click on "Properties" and then "Installed Files" in the main box, click "Browse" and this will open up your game folder.
The file you are looking for is named "Enshrouded.log" or could also just look like a text file named "Enshrouded" if you have file extensions turned off.
Hmmm... Might need to send the dump file on to Keen then. Your specs look fine, and without an error code there's nothing I can say nor can I personally parse the dump file. If you can get the game going far enough to submit a bug report that would be your best bet.
great, how do I send it to them, just via the bug report in game?
I can get the game going and play it for like an hour or two, it's not an instant crash you see, it just will go like mid dungeon or even when idling
I believe there is a place to upload files.
can I see your log as well, just to see if I can't see anything?
already more useful than my real mom XD
.>
hmm. okay - no error on crash in the log either, and nothing to indicate your system was having an issue before the crash (that I see). Your settings are fine as well. The only thing I am seeing is that you have an Integrated GPU along with your 4060. But first, in your Event Viewer, what does the one below the application hang say?
theres no hang in the event viewer, only the error
theres one AFTER it?
(sorry, I'm literal, its the tism)
There were two entries that happened at the same time in the screenshot
you are getting a BSOD when you crash?
it says i am but i most certainly do not
the game closes, thats it, the pc stays up
it makes ZERO SENSE
see why i'm ready to yeet it out of a window?
I get that way every time I have an issue on my computer ๐ Okay so if I read correctly, there is no pattern to the issue that you have seen, like a certain amount of time that passes, doing something in the game or even alt-tabbing?
nope, totally random. Sometimes, like this time, i was alt tabbed out. Sometimes mid fight with a group of people
sometimes an hour in, sometimes two, sometimes ten minutes
Okay - can you do me a favor and disable your integrated GPU temporarily to see if it fixes the issue?
i don't see why not
i literally even replaced the card to get this nonsense to stop lol
Also just to be sure - the log you sent, was it from the crash dumps folder, or from the main install folder from directly after a crash?
Just to make sure you weren't in the game at the time and pulled it from the main directory.
from the dump folder
okay. ๐ just making sure. a log that is currently being written to would look the same as one without an error on crash.
that makes sense ๐
so far so good, but i gotta get to bed so ill play properly tomorrow
thank you for your help ๐
Of course! If you have any more issues, go ahead and ping me and we can look into it more.
Are you talking about kicked from a game? The only way to "unkick" at this time is to restart the host of the game, or server.
when are they going to un ruin this game? It runes like absolute garbage sense the last update
Most people's game runs fine.
So maybe instead of coming in here making snarky comments, you could ask for help in fixing the issue next time.
MK? Just wondering, I no longer find " Chat room or Tavern. Does that imply I have been kicked off of them? eeck!
You probably just minimized the category. look to the left and see if the little arrow is pointed to the right or down.
Click it if it's pointing to the right
Oh wow , your a blessing , ty ty
It's the "Enshrouded" category
Sure thing ๐
Just out of curiosity a question that maybe someone here can answer.
3 weeks ago I made a bug report (#68039), also sent the save files, nothing critical, more inconvinient. Is there normally any feedback on whether the error could be reproduced, whether more is needed, or whether this was completed with or without a result?
If you get a response, it'll be asking for more information. It's very unlikely they'll reply directly outside of that.
That mail I received, and I sent the requested files, that was 3 weeks ago. That was all I heard
That first one is automated. When the right options are chosen during the reporting process ^^
Unfortunately, this means that there is no information about the status or progress of the error report.
I'm sure they'd love to reply and update people on every tiny little report that gets sent in, but it's simply not something that's feasible or sensible.
Could be done automated, I would be surprised if they don't have a system to track all the reports and their status ...
How do you meaningfully automate replying to reports of world tears in different area's, for example? I got an email from them about one of my bug reports (4 months after i reported it) And it was a 'We've made lots of changes since you reported this, if your problem is still there, please let us know' Hey, it's automated but it doesn't really do anything ๐
Hello, is here the right place to ask for help, when it comes to problems with the game?
Having problems launching the game?
Ok, probably a known issue but I don't work for Keen so can't really help outside saying update your graphic drivers.
#1334621056148967465 message
best start off looking here
perfect thanks alot
well, so far, so good and i walked off for like three hours and left the game running, when i came back it was still on
Hey last time I played was like 3 major patches ago and I didnโt lag before on my friends server. Itโs been a while but now when I play Iโm at 89 ms when standing near my friend and 255ms when away from him. Is there some setting I can change to make my ping to him better or is that more isp based? We can play other games together and Iโll have low ping on like 7 days to die dedicated server but on this game I have high ping on his dedicated server. Iโve tested my convection on meter.net and I have stable low ping connections with servers (30ms-40ms ranges).
Try asking in https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1195385334310121593 They can help you with all dedicated server info and might have a little clearer insight into P2P issues. (Though Enshrouded is, in general, more taxing than the average game.)
hello!
I'm pretty new here and wanted to see if anybody could help with this, my issue came up today when i joined my world and wanted to cook some food, when it was done and i stopped holding the button to cook food my game froze and it then crashed.
I'm not sure if this is anything known or even an issue with the game itself in the first place but it wasn't occurring when i last played it which was yesterday.
Another thing I've noticed is that attacking with wands has my character jerking back and forth as the animation seems to cut off.
uhh, seems like that was a performance issue on my part, taking settings down a notch fixed the crashing and animation issues
can you send your log file?
that's good!
hi ๐
i got fps problems in menu and with the world map, is this a knwon issue? ๐
do you want me to dm them to you?
you can just send them herre
the issue should be fixed as of the latest update, is your game up to date?
should be i dont have an update open, i got also the fps problem with the workstations btw.
can you send your log file?
i can see your driver is out of date, that might also cause some preformance issues. i reccomend you update your gpu driver. and i'd keep the settings low since your card is on the lower end for the game :)
Finding your logs:
For better and faster troubleshooting, please share game logs along with your message.
Open File Explorer
- Navigate to your Steam folder, by default it should be in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam.
- Find the following file: [...]\Steam\steamapps\common\Enshrouded\enshrouded.log
โ ๏ธ If you do not have "show known file extensions" in Windows Explorer active, the relevant file will appear only as "enshrouded", with no extension and file type "Text Document".
Copy and Paste the log file into Discord
- Head over to #troubleshooting and paste the log file into the channel.
Thanks!
this is from my local pc, but i play on my privat cloud server, but i dont have connection issues and i got the fps issues also when i play local.
did you try the minidump command?
okay, go ahead and type /minidump here in the chat and you'll get a list of steps to follow in your dms
thy ๐
Is just installing the latest driver it gives you on the nvidia website fine?
yeah, if your driver doesn't give you the update
i tried the steps, but just helps temporary, if i stay in a workstation looking a bit the fps drops down again and jumps up a bit hard do explain.
its not so dramatic i can play and do everything just asked if someone has the same problem ^^
yet again the game won't boot, followed all the steps but still nothing.
Hey i have vega 56 and alawys have "minidump" error from the beginning its so annoying, someone could help me?
Oh, here you are. ๐ Firstly, are your video drivers up to date?
Hopefully, I'm replying to the correct person ๐
I think your issue may be a Vulkan issue. I noticed this in your logs:
[I 00:00:00,082] [graphics] Vulkan instance version 1.4.304 (variant 0)
[I 00:00:00,282] [graphics] Vulkan device 0 (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070):
[I 00:00:00,282] [graphics] - api version : 1.4.303
Your Vulkan instance version is different than the Vulkan api version.
A regular in this channel will probably need to verify and provide you assistance on where to download Vulkan. It's possible you got the SDK (developer version) and not the Runtime? Not sure how you would go about making sure Vulkan is removed and re-installed either.
thanks for the insight, i will try to find a way to fix the vulkan problem until someone here have a answer too the problem ๐
I've just built an Ectoplasm Press in my base which is 80x80x80 meters in size. The Ectoplasm Press does not detect items in magic chests for crafting (unlike all the other crafting stations I have made so far). The Ectoplasm Press is slightly further away than previous crafting stations, but it is still probably within 20-30 meters of the chests (straight-line distance). I had hoped magic chests would supply any crafting station within the same Flame Alter area as they are, but is this not the case? Or should this be reported as a bug?
Magic chests have a limited range, but it should be farther than what you are describing. Have you tried moving your press closer to test whether range is the issue?
I'll try that soon. Out of curiosity do you know the range number, because the magic chest item description just says "anywhere in the base".
i dont know. Some people have tested it, but it was a while ago and i do not remember the result. Also, i think they have increased the range since then in a patch. If i had to guess, i would say maybe 50-80 meters based on my own base layout, but i am not sure.
Altar areas can overlap, so there is not a clear distinction of whether two objects are connected to the same altar
The Nomad hollow halls teleporter doesn't work (character does the animation but nothing). Any ideas on what to do? (Tried a restart)
I think I've found the issue, and it looks like it's my fault. The ectoplasm press can craft from magic chests, but it doesn't count chest items as part of the available ingredient supply. Then, I checked another crafting station and it looks like they all have this behavior, and somehow I just didn't notice until now.! Oops...
The range should now be larger than the level 4 base from corner to corner. Beyond that I have not tested it.
That's good to know.
Try verifying your game files in steam. Go to your game library and right click on Enshrouded go to properties and click on installed files. It will be in that window.
If it finishes immediately, press the button again. Steam can be lazy and not run it sometimes.
That would be about 226 meters from corner to corner. Definitely larger than i have seen but i dont think i have tested the limit since before they increased it
It was 100m exactly before the update. I used the same platform to test it from corner to corner and it worked.
But yeah, I don't know the exact number now. I didn't have the altars in my world available for more than 1 more platform, and building another 160x160 platform for the few people who combine altars for bases seemed like too much work. ๐คฃ
So the file you want to download (if you haven't already) is here: https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home and the one you want to download is the runtime installer for windows. It should be in the left column - right now they don't have one for 1.4.304.1, so you'll have to download the one for 1.4.304.0
Me again, same thing happening now, graphics settings were at the lowest preset.
i no longer have any clue how it's happening
Have you already done all the steps in the /minidump DM?
nope, what is that?
hold on one sec. I see a couple things in your log.
i switched to the newer drivers as sammy mentioned mine were old, then i restarted my pc, now things are this way again
if that's any info that helps
So first thing is that you are running the game on a ryzen 5 1600 with 16gb ram and with a 1070ti. This is very close to minimum specs, and your settings are way too high for that. you need to put them on "maximum performance" and then you can up a couple of things a little bit, like Voxel detail models and small foliage to make it look a bit better.
The second thing is that you are already using a great deal of your ram before the game even starts. This means that you likely have some programs that are eating up your resources like CPU and GPU along with your ram, and the game is going to need all 3. You will need to close programs, and probably even disable programs that are staring up with your system through task manager to free up those resources.
hm, quite interesting, although i don't doubt this will work i am most confused about these occurrences as the game ran just fine literally yesterday, but whatever ๐คทโโ๏ธ
This is what I see in your log. I can't speak for yesterday, as I don't have that log.
yeah it just feels very weird to me
So update - Went ahead and got a new PC (needed one). Went from a 5 to a 7, 16GB to 32GB and my game still rubber bands like crazy. Before the latest update I was running the game perfectly fine.
This is on solo play?
Yes
and this was a brand new computer, not an upgrade to your old one?
Yep brand new
Did you happen to import your windows settings?
Hmm I believe he did, hubby set everything up for me.
I keep crashing on my desktop, even blue screens of death. Got even worse after the NVIDIA feb 20 driver update.
Anyone else running into this or seen it here?
My laptop (also an MSI) doesn't crash
could it be graphics settings ?
It's possible the problem lies in there somewhere. It's the only thing that would have transferred over. Unfortunately I am not too familiar with everything that windows actually saves and puts in there.
Yeah it just sucks because I want to play so bad, and I didn't have these issues until the latest patch.
It could be many different things, but the BSOD isn't good. Go ahead and type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
Fantastic thank you, I'll do that
let me look into what windows actually imports and see if I can find something that could be causing the issue on both systems.
Hmmm. It looks like the game is shutting down gracefully. As to why it's shutting down, can't say I see any "errors" telling it to shut down
She's having rubberbanding issues in a solo game. had it on her previous system, now has a new system and the issue is the same. Settings for windows was imported we believe, and I know you know more about that than I do, can you think of anything that could have been imported from her old system that could be causing the issue?
HAH! Windows. Me know more than you? ha ha. ha ha ๐
Okay so, I started a brand new word and it runs beyond amazingโฆmaybe my other private world is justโฆbugged? Or something?
Hmm. Can you do me a favor and zip up your save files and toss them in here. Let me have a look at your world and see if I have the same issue. It's possible.
Hey there, My friend and I are playing on ad edicated server with a fresh save from the ast update and the quest of the mountain never trigerred also we already visit half the zone
How do I go about doing that?
Do you have cloud save on?
Yes
okay go to ..\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[YourSteamID]\1203620\remote (YourSteamID is your unique Steam ID number) and you should see a bunch of files there that look like this:
Well, if this is a brand new PC, over-the-counter I take it? First, I would check and disable most, if not all, of the pre-installed software that over-the-counter PCs usually come with. This is me, personally, but I always re-install a clean Windows of any pre-built machine. If I'm going to bloat up my Windows, let me do it myself. ๐
go back up one and right click on the folder "remote" and select "compress to..." then select "ZIP"
this should create a folder in the same location that you can drag and drop in here.
Okay give me a moment
Well it was built for me (bought the parts online) and had to pay a little extra for them to put it together for me because let's be honest...I can't even handle putting together an IKEA desk lol. I know how to build I just chose not to.
Okay I can repeat the issue, which means it is something in your save.
let me poke around a bit to see if it's possible to salvage it
oooo Thank you!!
I really appreciate your guys help โค๏ธ
Finally being able to find a game that I can basically live on and not get tired of feels so good lol
@feral crag Okay so the problem seems to be in one of your bases. the one closest to the starting area. It means your game can be salvaged, but it might mean that you have to remove that specific base, unless I can narrow down what actually might be causing the problem.
Do you happen to remember what changes you made to that base right before the issue started?
Not on the top of my head. It is however a already built house that I took over and fixed up lol
What is DDU? I'm reinstalling my graphic drivers
It said to install it with DDU?
Or was it DUU
Device Driver Uninstaller. It's a program that removes all your drivers including registry entries that could have become corrupted
there should be a video on how to use it in the DM, I would watch it before running it.
Same thing probably tho?
I'm not entirely sure. I think DDU goes deeper, but you can try the clean install
I will figure it out ๐
Thanks! The utility didn't work sadly tho it did speed things up cause of the cache clear
Okay - I think I may have found the issue - but unfortunately it may mean you will lose that base. There are several tables in the build that are invisible - Ones that were there when you placed your altar down. I believe it may be due to them changing the ID's of some items.
Oh thatโs perfectly fine to lose a base!
I was able to replicate in a server environment, the start moving then snap back to start. It's definitely a savegame corruption. Teleporting to the one Flame up in the mountains, after a few moments it cleared up and was able to teleport to her Woodard base and no issues
Just as long as I can live on the game now ๐คฃ
You can go in and remove your items (painfully) and put them in your new base, and once you delete the old base and relog, it should remove the problem
But this is the base causing the issue, just to be clear. ๐
Welp itโs moving time ๐คฃ
Thank you again so much for looking into this for me โค๏ธโค๏ธ
I am also going to let the devs know about this problem as well and send them your save so they can check it out. But at least you will be able to play again ๐
Oh, just stuttered again.
Let me know if you still have issues after the driver clean install. We can try looking into some other things.
how can we keep the animals inside the fences? They keep going out and it means we miss resources because they cant access their bed and food
Leashes and stake them in the ground! I joke. That's a good question. I thought they fixed that to a certain degree a patch or two, ago. Unless that is one they recently rolled back due to other issues.
ok thankyou. I will wait for another patch
Hello, I need some help please.
I cant seem to unlock my FPS ingame, its capped to 60, tried everything i know and cant seem to get past 60.
I've played the game when it first launched and it had a problem that the game was 'capped' at 60 for some reason, but I think that was fixed, but mine its still capped at 60, no matter what i do.
We had to build 3 or four block walls. 1 or 2 bricks under fence has worked as well. Just tryed windows in a 2 block. Not sure that works tho.
Broo I got this vest through twitch drops, now I can't wear it
Is this a bug or what
This might be a dumb question but are you putting it in the cosmetic slot?
Report - I have two issues about the dog (which I love to pet, btw):
-
The dog constantly ask for food despite the pot is in front of it, having plenty of food.
-
It seems the dog has a very low freedom of movement's diameter. The NPCs have option of 0 to 50 meters, but the dog have none. Consequently the dog barely move far from (I guess) 4-6 meters from its bed, tops.
It sounds like your monitor refresh rate might not be set up for your monitor. Right click on your desktop and go to "Display settings" Select your main monitor (if applicable) and scroll down to "Advanced Display"
Where it says "Choose a refresh rate" set it to the highest Hz level that is available in the list.
Are you running in offline mode or somehow not connected to steam correctly?
To report bugs please use the in-game option by hitting F1 inside your world. Bug reports do not get indexed from here as this is a player-to-player help channel
Ok thanks.
Why doesn't my carpenter make me a bucket? The wiki says the recipe is available after I get masonry tools. I have masonry tools placed next to him, but there's no bucket recipe.
You need the table saw to make cut boards first I believe. The carpenter gives the mission. Did this help?
Tombstone Mode
"gameSettings": {
"tombstoneMode": "AddBackpackMaterials"
}
The players can either keep or lose all items from their backpack when dying. In the default setting, they only lose materials. Lost items are stored in a tombstone and can be recovered there.
Options: AddBackpackMaterials / Everything / NoTombstone
Doees Changing that on a Dedicated seerver work?
I Cant get it to use NoTombstonee
Check over in #server-support
Is there a way to force my character to save besides quitting?
No. it's just after a certain amount of time or when you exit.
darn
been getting crashed fairly often while playing and was hoping to just save my character frequently enough to not need to care about it, but here is these
Its annoying cause it keeps rolling back my progress on my character
ah right here is the dmp
Your crashes aren't caused by memory access errors, are they? (this would be explicit in the crash notification that pops up when the game bombs)
Only popup is the upload a crash log thingy
and says where its created aka the ensrouded crash dump
Also the crash doesnt seem to have shown up in the event viewer
That solved my problem, thank you!
Have you gone through the steps in the /minidump DM? If not go ahead and type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
hello! just got the game. The game is crashing on launch
Please type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
yeah second step with the powershell seems to have fixed it from what i can tell
๐
Awesome, glad to hear it! ๐
Ill report if it crashes again but yeah played like 2 hours without a crash
my game hasnt been crashing, its just been doing weird things like alters not showing up on the map or spires and other things that were there are now not, and sometimes my bag slots do not show up or the inventory of a chest or a work station is just not visable.
Is your game installed on an HDD?
no
Okay. So if it's on an SSD, then I would verify your game files in steam and restart your computer to see if that fixes the issue.
I did that and reinstalled the game, I just end up having to relog until it fixes it self
load times are much longer then when the game first came out too, which sucks
hmm. usually this happens due to a bottleneck when loading the game. Usually it's due to an HDD being used, but it could also be because either your ram or something else is getting overloaded.
Maybe try lowering your setings a bit to see if the issue still happens. Start with resolution if it's above 1080p, and texture resolution. also check other worlds to see if it happens there. If the game is trying to load a really large world, it could also be causing your system to overload.
its a pretty top notch gaming pc, not sure why it used to run great and now no
I dropped the settings to max preformance which also sucks
still dose all the above
does it do it in every world you make or just the one?
Also, would you please drag and drop a copy of your log file into this chat? It's possible I could see something in there.
You can access the log file by opening up your Steam library and right clicking on "Enshrouded" in the list. Click on "Properties" and then "Installed Files" in the main box, click "Browse" and this will open up your game folder.
The file you are looking for is named "Enshrouded.log" or could also just look like a text file named "Enshrouded" if you have file extensions turned off.
i have solved the same isshue, by picking up the dog and all the loot, and replacing everything in another room with more space!
Nice, thanks. I'll try that ๐
Is anyone else having problems with building lately? We built our base near Fenrigs farm and the area was completely changed during the update. Now we have some spots, where we can't build ๐ฉ - it pops up in the middle of the air. There is no shroud, there is no entity that might block the spot. It's super frustrating.
Hello,
my character is not able to wear the "last" 3 Equipment. Whatever I equip or unequip, I can't equip every Equipment I have / I want. The last 3 Slots are getting blocked. What can I do about this?
It started today when I used puppets to showcase my gear on them, and it kinda blocked 3 of my last slots now.
Greetings. So there is one shroud root in the Nomad area of the map that literally shuts down my PC every time I approach it. No other problems except at this one particular location. Any ideas? I thought maybe it was heat related but have excluded that.
If this doesnt fix the graphics issues, I dont want to hear anymore excuses. I expect fixes in the future, periodt. Comprende
There is no reason that enshrouded should have issues, but a 1080 sc can run Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 and 2 without purpler graphic errors.

as long as its running the same MHz on the motherboard and set at the same MHZ as the smaller running mhz its fine, you have to know 1,3 channels, and 2,4 channels
it can cause instability, in general its a bad idea
only instability if mixed running in different slots, and running seperate mhz
i can still take the two smaller sticks of mhz out and run 32gb at 6800mhz if i wanted, again no excuses, all together 64gb ram running at 4800mhz per bios settings.. all 4 sticks are 16gb making 16gbx4 at 4800mhz not mixed 32gb with 16gb..
any reason why my game feels like its getting 30 fps when im running at a constant 120 fps? new too the game
Any point of interest is liable to change at any point during development and many have changed over the last year, including build excluding ranges. It's entirely possible that the devs have intentionally blocked certain area's from being built for their own future plans. No one knows but them ^^ Do submit a bug report using F1 in game though so that if this is a mistake, they at least will know about it and add to their list of things to do ^^
I've not personally heard of a specific shroud root causing issues but.
First of all, i'd double check that this is a repeatable crash (Which it sounds like.) Make sure it does it on your normal world and preferable on a different world as well (Just to check if it's a single world specific issue or a general one for you)
If both of those come back as yes, then type /minidump in chat here, you'll get a DM from the bot with a list of things to run through, normally meant for crashing but they will help to tidy up thing like shader caches which might help. Don't worry about running the 4th option (DDU) just yet though.
If you're still having the issue, come back here with your log file - To find it, goto your steam games library, right click Enshrouded > Manage > Browse file location > Drag and drop Enshrouded.log Or Enshrouded.txt Or Just Enshrouded if you have extension turned off, in here and we'll see if there's anything we can find.
If you can be certain the issue is repeateable, also report it using F1 in game, in case it might be something they don't have on their radar.
Do you have anything limiting FPS externally? Perhaps try toggling Vsync. The 'limiting' issue they had at EA release has long since been corrected so perhaps you can capture an in game video of what you're experiencing?
Any chance you can post a screen shot of what you mean, i'm not sure i understand when you say you cant wear them. Is it possible you are equipping the items in the cosmetic slots?
In your json there is a setting:
"gameSettingsPreset": "Default",
This MUST be set to "Custom" for any of the settings below it, to take affect.
Hello, the problem is this, I was playing with friends in my created world, and literally about 20 minutes ago I was kicked out of the game 3 times in a row, after 3 times I go into the game and discover that my character is gone and, accordingly, the world that I created, where did it all go?
Try toggling cloud saves either on or off depending what it's currently set to. Also by kicked out, do you mean you crashed?
yes crashed, now Iโll see if there are any saves, I forgot to clarify that I also checked the integrity of the files
Three slots are not equipable, I ve got nothing on cosmetic slots right now
If toggling doesn't work then go to
%USERPROFILE%/Saved Games/Enshrouded
Or
\Steam\userdata\YOURSTEAMID\1203620\remote
And let me know if there are files in either of these locations (If yes, take a screenshot and drop it in here please.)
And not equippable by any gear at all? You still have the items in your bags i assume?
My back contains only this armor set right now, i emptied it all, no matter what set I try on, it doesnt, and the slots you see are not set, like i can take out helmet, put on gloves, and the helmet slot will be blocked. the three slots remaining are invisibly blocked
the screenshots you are asking for, I can provide tomorrow sadly ๐ฆ
So the games only allowing you to equip two armor pieces at a time... how strange. Are you solo or on a server?
on a private server, and this was all working til today midday, for some reason it got this bug. the left side is the same, i can equip all armor and would have 3 slots blocked on the left
like its not forced to the armor
when I checked the files u mention, I had save files from today after the bug, and from a week ago, but no files from yesterday, I will send them tomorrow you can see then
Just to clarify are you playing a private world on your own computer or are you connecting to your own dedicated server?
own dedicated server
Sorry, the save file thing was for the person above you, no need to worry about that ๐
Have you tries restarting the server?
There are no saves left, could this be due to the file integrity check?
I did not, but my 2nd char I created has no problems
No, the file integrity check will not delete save files on your side. If there's no files at all in those locations then i'm sorry to say they're probably lost. If you were using steam cloud saves before this started you might be able to get a copy from there, but i personally don't know how to do that.
I'd try restarting the server, it's entirely possible it's a syncing issue or something.
In terms of the crashing you're experiencing, can you post your log file in here?
To find it, goto your steam games library, right click Enshrouded > Manage > Browse file location > Drag and drop Enshrouded.log Or Enshrouded.txt Or Just Enshrouded if you have extension turned off, in here and we'll see if there's anything we can find.
ok
Who the heck are you "telling off" here? We are all players, dude.
Please type /minidump in here and you'll get a message from the bot with a list of steps to run through, try them, restart your computer after each one and see if they help. One thing i'm not sure on, your log is only saying you have a RX Vega without a model number, do you know what model you have?
I can see 2 things wrong, or at least possible issues.
-
Vulkan version mismatch
[I 00:00:00,085] [graphics] Creating Vulkan Device...
[I 00:00:00,118] [graphics] Vulkan instance version 1.4.303 (variant 0)
...
[I 00:00:00,745] [graphics] Vulkan device 0 (Radeon RX Vega):
[I 00:00:00,745] [graphics] - api version : 1.3.260 -
You have an RX Vega and an onboard Intel GPU. You might need to disable the Intel GPU so that the game knows to use the Vega and not the Intel.
RX Vega 64 Nitro +
Okay.
First thing, make sure you video drivers are updated. I don't have AMD graphics, but I'm sure you do that through an AMD software console?
This is...known right? This is in the megathread
Does anybody know if that bug is only present in the newest version?
From what I can see, the settings you have it on are way too high for that GPU. It's possible that the game is having difficulty loading aspects of itself because your GPU may be overloaded, possibly also stressing out your GPU.
It's an issue some people are having. The devs are aware of it and working towards a fix. There is more information as well as a request for info from the devs here: https://discord.com/channels/1046840540550942720/1334988638831906899
i have this files on steam cloud
Are there ways around it? Updating drivers, vulkan version? Are there any ways to possibly fix it?
They are your save files, if you can restore them from the cloud, that should bring your world and character back.
Nothing that I am aware of, but you are welcome to read in the thread. maybe someone else found a solution.
Okay just caught up. Just to be sure you are checking in the right location for your save files can you first go into steam and make absolutely certain that your cloud saves are turned on - Right click on enshrouded in the library list and click on properties - it'll be located under general.
If the cloud saves are turned on, click on installed files to the left and click browse. This will bring up the install directory of the game. Hit the up arrow in file explorer 3 times and you should be in your main steam directory, then click on userdata then the folder with your steam ID (let me know if there is more than one) then click on the folder 1203620 then remote.
This will make sure that you are in the correct directory for your steam cloud saves.
I have the game and steam on different drives
hmm. okay - that could also cause issues. But yeah in that case, I believe (not 100% certain) that the saves should be on the drive with the steam install.
I downloaded the save files, went into the game, created a new character and world, left the game, found folder 1203620 and replaced the saved files with the downloaded ones, went into the game and the character I created now remained there
Okay that's good.
Just to be sure - Since I always have my steam and games on the same drive - it was on the drive with your steam install, not the game install?
I deleted the folder 1203620, I go into the game and there is still a character that was just created, where does it load it from, I donโt understand
You deleted the enshrouded folder from your steam directory?
no
the 1203620 is part of your enshrouded install, sorry.
were you in the game or something when you deleted it?
and out of curiosity, why did you delete it?
I decided that if I delete it, the character I just created will disappear, and I will be sure that the files that I downloaded with my saves will be put in the right place to resurrect my world and my character))
I think I should reinstall the game
I was just going to suggest this with a couple of caveats.
- If your steam is installed on an SSD, install the game on the same drive to help with potential performance problems.
and - Clear your steam download cache and restart your computer before reinstalling.
If steam isn't on an SSD you may want to consider installing it to one.
The downloads, as well as most modern games pretty much require them these days.
Now Iโll try to do all this, and I hope everything will work out and Iโll stop bothering you with my problem, sorry!
It's not a bother - it's why we hang out in here ๐
Without problems, we wouldn't be lurking here ! ||Please world, no more problems, pleaaaaaase!|| ^^
Yea its a known issue thats why i posted about the graphics issue.
Yo yall can issue a refund of my money if it doesnt work and is unplayable.. so dont come at me sideways when I turned around and went out to spend 499$ just to see if it fixes this purple graphics issue.. I will gladly write a negative review for a bugged out unplayable game in a heartbeat. Its that simple
What don't you get about - We are players -
Im not into its a known issue or a its your old card issue, but the card plays graphics intensive ganes like Kingdom come deliverance, kingdom come deliverans 2, battlefield 2042, etc etc.
If you want to be all "let me speak to the manager" about it - at least make sure you are talking to employees of the company, and not the people sitting in the lobby.
Yea we are but to say graphics cards are the issue for purple screens and glitched maps thats a cop out
Bottom line.
This has nothing to do with players at all, not 1 bit.. i feel bad for all the players spending money for a game having graphics issues nonstop to where their game is unplayable
Why are you bursting out on players tho
You are welcome to think what you want. But you are in a channel with no employees of the company. Honestly - we don't care if you return it or write a bad review.
Bottom line, we don't care what you do or think about the game itself, we try to help people with issues they have. We can only point people in the direction that might help.
not like any of us can either refund anything
When players spend money to consume a product and they cant play the product they paid for thats a problem
Exactly
I agree, steam has a strict refund policy, I felt that
Well wouldnt it be smarter to concentrate your critique to the enshrouded direct support tho
Not trying to silence you but mate, nobody here is an inch over in any authority over the game, than you
we're equals
I have , and I have the same purple graphics problems you had with a 8gb card, was still told its a graphics issue.. well we will see now that its a 12gb 4070 huh
You paid for a game in development, a game that can go to the wall at a moments notice or a simple update. If you really cant deal with that then you shouldn't be buying games in development. ๐คท
Every game I played in development before that release actually played without graphical issues
Congratulations.
This is a first, it was an unfinished game and content added later..
Not released unplayable ever
So you got lucky? I can promise you that none of the games you played were without bugs.
Yes... it is an unfinished game...
Okay Salty but listen to me real quick
i played the game like in the beginning of 2024 when it was released
Yo hey im not going to argue Ill gladly contact steam
it was playable and fine
as far as i know this recent patch caused issues
shit happens man
Please do contact steam, it'll save us all trouble ๐
Yup I know for a little bit, I played it like 2 weeks and everytime I played it after, purple screens, coded maps, and crashes
Oh its your old 8gb card when the settings recommended and minimum supports 6gb
Thats unlucky, its not a permanent state, its the current state, you just happened to start at the wrong time
If players don't understand the product they're paying for, that's their problem.
as for now, i dont see any correlation between GPU's and the issues, i've seen people with AMD have the issue, nvidia, old, new, cheap, expensive graphicscards
As advertised the recommended and minimum states what it can be played, if the game wont play within the recommended or minimum hardware thats a problem early release or not
Either way - this channel is for troubleshooting issues only. If you wish to discuss your annoyance for the issue, please take it anywhere else. This channel needs to be left open for people who have issues we can help fix, not be stuffed with debates or complaints about the game.
yea the update is really rough on older cards previously worked fine for me, I just hope the devs will throw us a bone for our weaker cards
Theres only the assumption it might be that, just relax and contact the appropriate support
you can also rollback a version or two
People deserve to know the workarounds WE as players are doing just to play your game and to know what WE as players are doing just to operate the game.
Then do it somewhere else.
Seriously dude WE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE GAME DEVELOPMENT IT IS NOT OUR GAME ๐คฃ
Nope was past the so many capabilities to rollover so all the hours played now stuck, and Im not happy with it 1 bit
Alot of people posted complaints about it, I posted your workaround you told me it was which is "buy a newer graphics card"
either way. I am asking that you take it to another channel as it's not helpful to anyone here.
Its helpful hey look "buy a newer graphics card" because your old graphics card even if it works is the issue why it is unplayable and the devs are working on fixing that.
I have never "told" anyone to by a new GPU. I have suggested it for people who have older GPU's that are about to be unsupported. but I have never once said "buy a new GPU, it'll fix your issue."
I think whatever is going on here isnโt helping anyone now guys I suggest you all put a pin in it
Just posting to let you know I took your advice, for a solution to the problem so lets see what happens
Nah you said "old card issue" copy that... lets see if its an old card issue.
Then "known issue"
NO. I said that the issue is affecting people with old cards more than people with newer ones.
This is an EA game, there will be issues along the way as they update, it is time to move on as none of this is being productive. This is the last warning before timeouts are being given.
either way, I am going to stop responding, since the mods have spoken.
Btw, I saw your comment buried in here. Other than the map corruption, were you having other issues I can help with?
still the same issues like the pink graphics, infinity health/mana, quests reappearing, game crashing or crashing the pc itself, ya know the usual XD im following the mini dump thingy hoping that could chisel a bit towards some solution
It could help with the crashing. I am still not entirely sure they know what the pink graphics thing is. I think at first they thought it was an issue with AMD cards or drivers, but IIRC some people with Nvidia cards are having it too. Hopefully they will be able to track it down.
Did you already give them the stuff they requested in the thread?
im on Nvidea
i gave you or them the requested stuff in the thread
to the best of my knowledge
Okay ๐ sorry stepped away from my brain for a bit there. I wasn't sure. Your name was familiar, but that was a crazy couple of weeks ๐
Darn, crashed again today, for the renaming fix the bot is a bit cluttered in its path stuff "SteamsteamappscommonEnshroudedenshrouded_local.json" is what it says
..\Steam\steamapps\common\Enshrouded\enshrouded_local.json
what should i rename it to?
anything. as long as it's not the same.
ah it just makes a new local.json
yup. complete settings reset. can help with bad settings or a possible corruption
well ill play some more and see if i crash again
Welp another crash, darn
Yeah the intel is a discrete gpu afaik
odd i did the debug thing where it installed the vulcan stuff
so that should have fixed any vulcan stuff i assume?
sorry, i think i replied to wrong person... darnit. i didn't after all. lol
Ok. I'm seeing weird stuff in your logs...
You have both nNvidia and onboard Intel GPU. I haven't hung out here in a while, maybe @zinc oak can confirm, should the integrated be disabled?
Also, Vulkan version and Vulkan API version mismatch.
Also, what the heck is this? hehe

Yeah I saw those. It was in the last one too. it's a LOT of them
I hadn't either. that jumped out at me. as far as the Vulkan, Most of the the ones I've seen, both the Vulkan Version and Vulkan API version match. Yours currently aren't
Is it 304.0 and 304.1?
odd, should i run the powershell thing again?
no i did some tweaks but havent noticed anything bad. will update aas i get further into the game
[I 00:00:00,101] [graphics] Creating Vulkan Device...
[I 00:00:00,153] [graphics] Vulkan instance version 1.4.304 (variant 0)
....
[I 00:00:00,742] [graphics] Vulkan device 0 (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU):
[I 00:00:00,742] [graphics] - api version : 1.4.303
What is your monitor's refresh rate set to?
hmm. Yeah,
Head here https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home and download 1.4.304.0 for windows, specifically look for the runtime installer
download and install it and give your system a nice restart.
120hz
can you not rotate flame alters?
and vsync is on?
yes
Are you playing on a solo game or in a hosted world/on a server?
They look the same from any angle, regardless if you rotate them :p
im building my base and want to build the flame alter in the center, then build the foundation outword at a specific angle
solo
would you be able to make a video showing what you are talking about?
ok installed and restarted, anything else i need to do for this test run?
nope, go for it ๐
after i did those tweaks i mention previously it stopped
Sorry. Apparently I can't read today ๐คฃ
I see what you're saying. Huh. I guess you can't.
thats dumb
you cant rotate foundations either???
That's how voxel worlds work. Think of it like 3D Graph paper everything has to fill in those specific blocks.
you can modify, like the terrain doees, to seem to go at an angle, but in reality, even the terrain only takes up thos specific blocks and can only work within the boundaries of and around them.
thats ok ill just build a hobbit hole
is there a way to even terrain out? so make it flat?
If you've gone through starting quests, yes. There's a "rake" that will level terrain
Or use the build tool. There's a row called Terrain and you can add or remove using the left and right mouse buttons.
before new update, my gpu temps was like 85C max
now its 100c on 1440p on mix b/n quality, balanced and performance on diff settings
im building underground base, do i need to put roofs up to get max comfort?
i think any form of roofs counts as shelter. long as yalls heads are covered
Anyone know why Enshrouded starts freaking out when I'm screen sharing? Like as soon as someone starts watching the game will lag extremely bad, then as soon as they stop it will work fine.
If anyone can help, I can't get the game to actually start. Whenever I click play on steam, the screen goes black and I see "Preprocessing" in the bottom right corner. I've left the game 'preprocessing' like this for upwards of 4 hours to no avail.
I tried troubleshooting with some of the players in #enshrouded-chat last night and did a few additional suggested things.
does anyone know how i can fix this issue. Game says this every launch. if you can get me in to the game ill actually pay lol
feel free to pm me may be able too help you
You gota post crash logs as that isnt an error code, also use /minidump in this channel I believe and try the things it reccomends I guess
^
While the game can be demanding, your system should be taking measures to keep your temperature down. If you are regularly seeing temperatures upwards of 100c on your GPU, you may have to look into your cooling system and make sure your system is cleaned out. You system should begin to throttle your GPU around 85-95c and will/should basically force your GPU or system to crash/restart from 95c-110c (depending on the GPU)
Screen sharing is a form of streaming, and can use a significant amount of GPU power. If your game is already using a lot by having the settings high (for your gpu), it can cause all kinds of issues, performance degradation and even crashing.
You may need to lower your graphics settings in the game and/or close other software on your system for it to run smoothly.
I have seen a couple of people who have had this. I am not sure what the actual issue is, but some people have been able to fix it by using the Enshrouded Toolfix, while some others had to reinstall, one even on a different drive for it to work. Does your game or steam happen to be installed on an HDD?
Please type /minidump in this chat and follow the instructions that will be sent to you in a DM from "The Flame" bot. These resolutions fix a great majority of the issues that can cause crashing in the game. If you are still crashing after doing all the steps, return back here and we'll see if we can't figure out what is going on.
Ah I see someone already suggested that ๐
ok thnx @austere shuttle is helping rn also
Did you already run the steps from the minidump DM? if so go ahead and toss your log in here. Also please make sure you are not giving away any personal or privileged information to anyone in DMs.
When someone who has only participated in the discord a couple of times asks to help you in DM's it makes my teeth itch a bit.
i havent done step 2 and 4 yet
Step 2 is a good one. You can reserve 4 if you aren't comfortable using DDU, but go ahead and run Liandry's tool and restart. This is all you have to do:
- Type
Powershellin your window's search bar - Right click on the "Windows Powershell" program that comes up and click "Run as Administrator"
- Type the following command in the window that pops up:
irm "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LiaNdrY/Enshrouded-Tool-Fix/main/Enshrouded_Tool_Fix.ps1" | iex - Restart your computer after it's complete.
No, its on an SSD. I got the game to run for about an hour earlier tonight, but experienced a crash on the pause screen afterwards.
Dunno, I was excited to come back and see all the changes/updates, but I guess this one needs more time in the oven. I'll swing back around 1.0 and check on it again.
This shouldn't be happening, and I honestly am not sure whether this one is a game bug or something on people's systems/settings. Can you toss the log from your crash folder in here, I can take a look at it and see if it gives any indication of what is happening.
You can access the log file by opening up your Steam library and right clicking on "Enshrouded" in the list. Click on "Properties" and then "Installed Files" in the main box, click "Browse" and this will open up your game folder.
The folder "Crash Dumps" should be in there and it should have a folder for your crash with a log in it.
like, copy/past this thing?
just the part in the code block (the darker background) but yeah.
or you can copy it directly from here if discord is being a pain: https://github.com/LiaNdrY/Enshrouded-Tool-Fix
this thing?
The only folder I see is "Backup".
what happened when you crashed?
I paused the game, went upstairs and came back 15 mins later to a restarted computer.
Did your gpu or cpu overheat?
hmm. that could have been several things - including a windows update (mine just got forced on my server despite having windows updates manually disabled)
Dunno, What I know is that the computer restarted due to a freeze or unresponsive program. Enshrouded according to the log.
but the game didn't recognize a crash. Have you already started up the game since that happened?
My PC is up to date. I fixed and tried all the basic stuff when I couldn't get it to start.
does the log have an error code or any useful info regarding the "crash"?
4th item from the top. but it may not show anything if you have run the game since the crash.
It can. Crashes happen for many reasons.
That's a readout my pc spits out when it crashes. I think its part of the operating system.
It just tells me which program caused the restart or the events leading up to the crash.
Should I just copy/paste the txt doc here? I don't know what I'm looking for in this @zinc oak
You should be able to just drag it into discord
you can drag and drop it in here. no need to copy/paste
sorry meant to respond. lol I am looking through it now
just so everyone knows, THIS got me into the game
Okay I am seeing a couple of things. First is that you are already using a decent amount of RAM before the game starts. While you still have more than enough RAM for the game it could mean that you have software running that could be interfering with the game or bogging down your GPU.
The second thing is that your texture resolution seems to be set a bit higher than your GPU may be able to handle which could be overloading your VRAM.
Since I am seeing a bunch of memory allocation errors, one or both of these in combination could be the cause of the problem.
Awesome! Let me know if you have any more issues. ๐
Good to know, how can I address this issue?
Just looking at the task manager while the game is loading/running, the only other programs pulling RAM are Discord and the steam client.
For the ram usage, I would close any programs you might be running, especially lots of browser tabs or recording software that may be running. If it doesn't look like you have a lot, you can go into Task Manager (right click on your windows toolbar) and check your startup programs, there may be a lot running in the background - windows bloat is pretty terrible.
task manager isn't the best at monitoring performance. It doesn't really accurately display everything being used, and can kinda hide how much background processes are using.
but for the texture resolution, you can just go to settings in the game, then graphics, and it should be an option. If I read correctly yours is set on "high" which will use more VRAM than your card has available. Balanced should be much better.
I'm running a decent GPU and have pretty decent RAM. Enshrouded is the only game I've had issues with in this regard.
Can you recommend an alternative that gives a more accurate readout of the processes at play?
