he looks like a new name, are we sure its ever worked for him?

rapid obsidian
#

i think he said it had

jagged cedar
#

It used to work, but I reinstalled the game

#

doesnt work still sadly

#

voicemeeter also did not achieve

rapid obsidian
#

try disabling any firewall including windows temporarily

jagged cedar
#

i dont have any firewall enabled atm

Hey all, maybe someone can help me, got a new Bluetooth headset, works great on everything except foxhole. Audio starts out great, I get into game and as soon as the game connects to local chat channel all sound is gone. The only way I can hear game sound and chat is if both output and input are set to the mic headset portion but the game sounds like crap. Any thoughts?

blissful sequoia
#

voicemeeter

#

icanari promised a guide one day...

ashen solstice
#

What is that if you don’t mind me asking idk what voicemeeter is

sly mortar
#

Sound mixer

#

Forces inputs / outputs to go to their proper places

ashen solstice
#

Yea nope voice meter was a waste of time.

sly mortar
#

Could you send a picture of the setup you have for it?

ashen solstice
#

I can’t hear any playback through my headphones

sly mortar
#

That's because you set everything to go to everything...

#

Also, did you set it so that VB-Audio Voicemeeter is the default windows device for both input and output?

ashen solstice
#

Yes

sly mortar
#

Alright

ashen solstice
#

If I play sounds from the computer yes, when I’m talking no. But I can’t hear any of it

sly mortar
#

Alright

#

You're using bluetooth headphones you said?

ashen solstice
#

Yes

sly mortar
#

Okay

#

They might be fucked

ashen solstice
#

They work fine on everything except foxhole, even in foxhole they work until 4 seconds in then everything goes silent.

#

Well thanks anyways, I’ve spent 4 hours testing them on everything besides the game and they are fine, all roads point to foxhole with the issue.

rapid obsidian
#

onboard sound card ?

ashen solstice
#

Yes

#

😦 is that the issue you think?

rapid obsidian
#

no

#

just thought if you had 2 you could try another

#

actually if its bt headphones, it wont be even using your sound card

#

maybe try normal speakers or headphones (mobile handsfree even) to compare

ashen solstice
#

I have, works fine with a pair of normal headphones and actually when I disable the mic portion of the bt headphones it works fine, it’s when I enable the mic everything shuts down audio wise.

rapid obsidian
#

what if you use a normal mic ?

ashen solstice
#

Not sure if I have a spare mic, I’ll get back to you on that

ashen solstice
#

Ok separate mic works

terse flume
#

how would i go about fixing the home region problem

sly mortar
#

No home regions available @terse flume

#

That problem?

terse flume
#

yea

sly mortar
#

Try restarting steam

#

Task Manager it, then restart it

terse flume
#

can you explain better 😃 I dont understand what you mean by restart it

sly mortar
#

Go to task manager, kill Steam

#

Then open the program again

terse flume
#

oh ok

#

спасибо

#

really strange

#

so game work when i go to join a server from browse server

#

actually it just said conquest hasnt start yet

sly mortar
#

@terse flume Make sure you click "Join War"

frosty minnow
#

Hi, yesterday was everything ok with starting Foxhole...
this happened now <@&521124241395941396> . Can u help with this ?

desert atlas
#

hmm

#

did you try restarting it ?

#

pc

frosty minnow
#

yes

desert atlas
#

or reinstalling the game

frosty minnow
#

oh no. ok will try

desert atlas
#

try repairing the files as well

frank zealot
#

@frosty minnow just verify integrity on steam

desert atlas
#

might help

frosty minnow
#

Ok I was about to try it out... if it will not work I will let you know... thank you 😉

desert atlas
#

it should work

serene hare
#

Duri89 looks like the process failed to exit

#

Look for it in task manager by press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC

#

then looking for it in the process list and killing then

#

then try opening again

#

or you could just restart

#

Looks like your binary did become corrupted too

desert atlas
#

yeah i told him to restart his pc

#

and several other ways to check if it will work

crisp trail
#

hi guys, i got a problem with the sound, i cant hear anyone talk in game, they can hear me and everthing else is loud and clear, i read the tech read-first, but no help. maybe someone has an idea ?

vital pebble
#

@crisp trail Reconnect to the server via Settings > Voice

deft plume
#

Yeah, when something like that happens to you, search for the process in the admin (ctrl + shitf + esc), kill it, and try to restart it.

crisp trail
#

thanks

narrow escarp
#

@blissful sequoia @sly mortar @inner basin we got a final list I want to swipe da card?

blissful sequoia
#

there may be some debate over the ... final list

#

over storage, your input probably required

#

and definitely look over the case and the fans

inner basin
#

@narrow escarp did you ever answer my question about the storage options?

narrow escarp
#

Im good with maximum

#

rather have it than cut back and have to do it later

#

I can handle assembly but will probably go-pro it for you all to laugh at me

barren hamlet
#

Pressing E on the skirmish Monument in the home map crashes the game with Fatal error I can confirm it happened to me every time while I was near it and pressed E by mistake, and another person can confirm as well.

blissful sequoia
barren hamlet
#

Warden home region

blissful sequoia
#

hmm i checked it yesterday without a problem

#

wonder if there was a change since then

barren hamlet
#

The first time I was picking fuel from the ground near the Monument, i press E by mistake on the Monument and it said Fatal error, I rejoined and was picking the fuel again and I also did the same mistake again and it crashed again, then I rejoined and tried it twice on purpose and every time I clicked E on the Monument it crashed the game, I talked about it in the world chat and someone else confirmed that it happened to him as well.

blissful sequoia
#

theyll see your bug report and test it probably

dense sand
#

Anyone know how to fix a lag game it freezes up for a few seconds every 5 seconds

blissful sequoia
#

consistently every 5?

#

like you can do a countdown?

steel mica
#

hello guys

#

im new to this game, and im getting the lost connection to server error

#

how could i fix it

#

thx

sly mortar
#

@steel mica Try restarting steam. Go to task manager, kill the program, then restart it. If that doesn't work, ping me.

steel mica
#

ok ill try it

#

didnt work

#

how can i ping u

sly mortar
#

Alright

#

Pinging is just something to get someone's attention. Just @theirname

steel mica
#

ah ok, i thought icmp packet

#

thanx

#

sure, i went firewall> entrace/enter in/input rules, then searched for all Foxhole firewall rules (found 4) opened then >advanced> border routing then i switched to "agree all border routing" then i went in top off window "

#

"specify the profiles to which this rule applies" then i marked "domain" box with the other 2 boxes "public" and "private"

#

it worked.

blissful sequoia
#

was that in a guide or did you just figure that out? if its new info we should document it

sly mortar
#

Guide

#

The link I sent

blissful sequoia
#

oh nice

sly mortar
#

I think

#

Yeah

#

Firewall is in there

blissful sequoia
#

i should review that, i wonder if ive missed helping someone via the firewall...

#

he must have clicked no to public networks when it originally popped up

uneven leaf
#

Hi. I can't connect the game. getting the lost connection to server error. Files verified. Restarted steam. Firewall not active.

sly mortar
vague seal
#

thanks im gonna try a restart I can hear everybody but cant talk and not familiar with discord I set it up

sly mortar
#

Alright. So you can't hear anyone in-game @vague seal?

#

OH

#

You just can't talk

#

Try restarting steam, if that doesn't work say something here.

narrow escarp
#

So we got the official list im buying tomorrow am

sly mortar
#

One sec

#

Have it open...

#

Somewhere

narrow escarp
#

Sweet

#

also turns out ive got DSL

sly mortar
#

...

narrow escarp
#

.5 upload and 5-8 down

sly mortar
#

Where the fuck do you live

narrow escarp
#

AT&T Uverse

sly mortar
#

Ah

#

That would explain it

narrow escarp
#

@gritty token looked at it

sly mortar
#

Mhm

vague seal
#

i can hear everybody just cant communicate

sly mortar
#

Alright

#

Did you try restarting steam?

vague seal
#

yes just restarted everything

blissful sequoia
#

i will always want to make more changes, but moorep just keeps coming in asking if the list is done lol

#

i think we've been waiting for @narrow escarp thoughts on it

#

its a nice looking parts list, i like everything about it except the windows license hehe

#

holy crap @sly mortar video card upgrade?

#

also i like the disks in that arrangement better, thats nice...

sly mortar
#

That was what we'd decided right?

#

1080 ti?

blissful sequoia
#

im seeing the 11gb 1080 ti tho

#

yesterday it was an 8gb for $500 i think

sly mortar
#

Let me see

blissful sequoia
#

the video card is more expensive now for sure than the last build spec i saw

sly mortar
#

Nope

blissful sequoia
#

oh you might have been linking me an old one then?

sly mortar
#

Only change is m.2 (500gb) to m.2 (1TB)

#

Here's yesterday's final

blissful sequoia
#

before i asked about a 2070, you had a 1070 on there

#

i hadnt seen the 1080 ti on the list before

#

i like that we arent debating over magnetic drives anymore, so thats nice

#

all the parts look pretty choice

sly mortar
#

What, you don't want to go back to arguing that 4TB isn't enough storage space?

blissful sequoia
#

yea 4 is enough for him

#

i said 2x because i mirror everything, which he doesnt really need to do with ssd

sly mortar
#

I mean

#

We could do 2 1TB drives and give him a RAID 1 guide

blissful sequoia
#

lol

#

dont even get me started on raid

#

you are not prepared haha

sly mortar
#

What's wrong with RAID?

blissful sequoia
#

the z-write hole

sly mortar
#

I use it

#

and I fucking hate it

blissful sequoia
#

also, soft raid is the DEVIL

sly mortar
#

Correct

blissful sequoia
#

software mirror is ok, hardware raid is terrible, but softraid is the worst possible

sly mortar
#

I lost 6TB to soft raid

blissful sequoia
#

ouch.

#

thats a lot to lose unless it was very recent

sly mortar
#

Eh, none of it was important

blissful sequoia
#

no its never ... important, but its often costly to replace stuff

sly mortar
#

Nah

mossy drum
#

2-5008 voice chat error

#

HOW DO I FIX

sly mortar
#

It was backed up

mossy drum
blissful sequoia
#

i think about my work computer, if i erased the OS and lost no important data, it would still take me a week to repair the software stack, ya know?

sly mortar
#

I don't want to think about how much time it would take me to fix that...

blissful sequoia
#

i have to do it like once every other year, its awful

#

anyway, i love how ssd doesnt seem to just fail 1->0

#

you get some warning, and i dont have the same deep fears about it i do with magnetic

#

but omg raid. never again. just use windows raid-0 support (which is really not raid, its software) or mdadm or zfs

#

ya know?

#

software volume management is king now

sly mortar
#

Yep

#

Especially with 2TB SSDs and such coming out now as m.2s

#

And like, 8 TB Sata SSDs becoming relatively common for high end storage

blissful sequoia
#

im finally seeing nvme -> usb 3.1 adapters now

#

so you can have a flash drive running with that samsung evo if you want hehe

sly mortar
#

Not worth it

#

Cuts down on so much of the transfer

#

Or well, does it anymore?

#

3.1 is 20gb/s

#

Right?

blissful sequoia
#

not sure

sly mortar
#

Whew

#

API

#

Please

blissful sequoia
#

i believe you if you say so

sly mortar
#

I think 3.0 is 10, 3.1 is 20, and 3.2 is 40

#

they just made 3.2, not widely known, barely on anything

blissful sequoia
#

i would expect SOME loss, but its better than a sata interface, and its crazy faster than any stupid flash thumb drive you can buy on the open market

sly mortar
#

I mean, if you're transferring that much data you should just load it internally and then pull the drive

blissful sequoia
#

do you remember off the top of your head what the max read throughput on that evo 970 is?

#

but i think of it as being useful as an OS drive (usb)

sly mortar
#

Read or write?

blissful sequoia
#

portable comptuer

sly mortar
#

Different for both

#

Uh

blissful sequoia
#

read is faster, so that one

#

would it saturate the usb 3.1 interface?

sly mortar
#

3200mb/s I think

blissful sequoia
#

wow

#

so yes.

#

i might get one of those evos and replace my current m.2

#

i dunno wtf i bought haha

sly mortar
#

Samsung is so far ahead speed wise it really isn't funny

blissful sequoia
#

i used to LOVE samsung hard drives about 10 years ago

sly mortar
#

They may as well have a monopoly, and every year they're getting faster.

#

Their Sata drives are shit

blissful sequoia
#

i think their drives had 1 less platter than the rest but they had more data

sly mortar
#

Fucking Intel Sata drives are better

blissful sequoia
#

those drives lasted forever, i was a big fan...

narrow escarp
#

thanks yall the buying begins at 8am

#

cheers

sly mortar
#

Lol

#

Wait

blissful sequoia
#

i cant believe how eager you are to buy!

#

im trigger shy

#

did anyone check compatibility of the ram?

sly mortar
#

Uh

#

Let me recheck

#

It should work

blissful sequoia
#

is there any concern 650W isnt enough for a 1080?

#

i think it is

sly mortar
#

Runs on my board, but I had some problems with it

blissful sequoia
#

but when that power supply reaches 50% load the fan comes on

sly mortar
#

True

#

Probably should switch to 750

blissful sequoia
#

but its a quiet fanm

sly mortar
#

"quiet"

blissful sequoia
#

i bet its very quiet

sly mortar
#

It isn't

blissful sequoia
#

i bought a 1200W power supply for that last machine i made

#

platinum rated, never held such a thing in my life

sly mortar
#

Eh, it's a $7 difference between 650 and 750

blissful sequoia
#

it was HUGE

sly mortar
#

Yep

#

Platinum isn't worth it

blissful sequoia
#

oh yea do it then, bigger power supply is better

#

they dont make 1200W in gold lol

#

only plat+

#

i probably mentioned it before, its a gpu compute rig, it's got 4 of those 1080 tis in it

#

there were only 2 power supplies to pick from, ended up being like $300

#

i posted the motherboard i used for it here

sly mortar
#

What board are we looking at?

#

Maximus XI?

blissful sequoia
#

yes. hero

sly mortar
blissful sequoia
#

that board does not get a lot of newegg eggs...

#

it says its a z390 chipset

#

you might be lookin in the wrong section?

sly mortar
#

Oh

#

I'm dumb

blissful sequoia
#

90MB0XR0-M0EAY0 is the model i think

sly mortar
#

Yeah

#

It's there

#

G.Skill doesn't put model numbers on their compat lists

#

FOR SOME FUCKING REASON

blissful sequoia
#

well ... g skill hehe

sly mortar
blissful sequoia
#

are they a good brand? ive had about 50/50 luck with them

sly mortar
#

I've had good luck

#

Had one problem with a set of RAM being non-compatible, but compatible on the website, but they fixed it within a week

#

Their customer service is really good from what I can tell

#

We could always switch to Corsair RAM or something

blissful sequoia
#

when i was a kid i would just buy whatever the value ram was, i had no idea about compatibility

sly mortar
#

Haha

blissful sequoia
#

it mostly worked...

sly mortar
#

Lol

#

Corsair RAM is good

#

If you're worried we could switch to that

blissful sequoia
#

i have to just get kingston

#

nobody else really makes ecc

sly mortar
#

Mhm

blissful sequoia
#

no im not worried

sly mortar
#

Fucking ECC

blissful sequoia
#

if you say the chipset is good if you say the ram is good i trust you

sly mortar
#

why isn't ECC more common for fucks sake

blissful sequoia
#

and if its on the compatibility list im fairly certain there wont be problems

sly mortar
#

Eh

#

There were once

#

They fixed it though

blissful sequoia
#

ecc ram is also like ... never ever overclocked

#

its just not gaming ram

sly mortar
#

I know

#

But it should be

blissful sequoia
#

i agree

sly mortar
#

It should be the only type of ram

#

Like, why doesn't RAM check itself for errors

#

why

blissful sequoia
#

heres the kicker tho icanari

#

the desktop/workstation grade motherboards in the past used to be so unreliable in themselves the ram improvement wasnt worth it

#

the ones that worked with ECC

sly mortar
#

Yeah...

blissful sequoia
#

now all the processors work with ECC and half the motherboards

sly mortar
#

But NOT the fucking RAM

blissful sequoia
#

my last gaming rig was a supermicro board, with a full ipmi and everything, ecc, it was basically just a server

#

and it still crashed often

#

what a disappointment...

sly mortar
#

I'm not surprised

#

Server's really aren't as stable as they're made up to be

blissful sequoia
#

dells are =\ i hate to say it

#

because i hate dell

#

but that shit is rock solid

sly mortar
#

Yeah

#

But dell can fuck itself

blissful sequoia
#

next gaming rig is gonna be a dell server i think ahha

#

supermicro motherboards are all about 3/5 stars honestly

blissful sequoia
#

nvidia is bringing rtx (ray tracing) support to the 1080 gtx line in the april drivers

#

sweet...

#

good reason to buy a 1080 instead of a 1070

inner basin
#

@lethal scarab all thumbs up from me 👍

#

@sly mortar @blissful sequoia know a shit load more about computers than I do...

steel mica
#

@sly mortar @blissful sequoia I hadnt allowed foxhole in firewall only, i have opened the rule properties then Herring info advanced and allowing the router border

rugged latch
#

ECC RAM are more to stability than speed alone... and it cost more

#

GTX series GPU are more to speed but not quite stable...

#

Supermicro mobo are not suitable to be long run servers unless u can put it in 24/7 in air-con blowing directly....

#

anything with server intention PC, the price is expected to be 200% - 300% more than just for gaming....

blissful sequoia
#

lol hungry responds to the last 48 hours of conversation

#

is herring a router brand?

#

@inner basin

#

halp lol is this stuff on Amazon bc I don't want to buy the wrong thing

#

@sly mortar @blissful sequoia

blissful sequoia
#

yes it is

#

we'd better let icanari match it up, im not great at identifying video cards right

#

can probably find the mobo tho...

narrow escarp
#

cool

#

its in the cart

#

damn gaming card is 200 more on amazon

#

😦

#

jerks

blissful sequoia
#

wow that video card ... hmm

#

might be out of stock most places

#

thats how you know its a good price/performance lol

#

concerning replenishment on that card is unconfirmed on newegg

#

i.e. they might not get more

narrow escarp
#

:bites bullet:

blissful sequoia
#

it would be easy for icanari to swap out

#

and find a different one

narrow escarp
#

found one used

#

amazon

#

850

#

score

blissful sequoia
#

used?

#

i like used cards, but thats a high price for used

#

i got something similar used for $600 (i say similar but icanari will tell me how far off i am lol)

#

$900 refurbished ... i think maybe there was never any of those cards in stock at that price on the list

#

so it seems like you could buy the rest of the parts if you wanted to; i dont believe the video card will change anything else (the power supply is already big enough)

#

but yea we need somebody better with video cards on this one

narrow escarp
#

Bullet bitten

#

We shall see lol

#

Time for a ramen month buahaha

blissful sequoia
#

i hope not

narrow escarp
#

Im kidding

#

I saved the a squirrel

blissful sequoia
#

i must admit ive never owned my own computer that valuable, only work stuff

narrow escarp
#

well I'll be using it to generate content definitely going to cite you all on any vids I make

blissful sequoia
#

i guess i own that stuff but i dont get to use it for fun

narrow escarp
#

😃 thanks for everything

blissful sequoia
#

lets wait for it to work for the payoff lol

#

all the cryptocurrency miners (or whatever) are starting to sell their cards used on ebay/newegg lately

#

so theres a lot of cards on the market with highway miles

sly mortar
#

Problem is right now @narrow escarp @blissful sequoia, NVIDIA has stopped producing their 10 series of cards

blissful sequoia
#

and 0 in stockpile

sly mortar
#

Yeah.

narrow escarp
#

I got it

#

so we will see

sly mortar
#

They stopped producing 10 series before the 20s even announced.

narrow escarp
#

:/ Fingers crossed

sly mortar
#

You're probably fine.

#

1080 TIs weren't very good price/performance for crypto

blissful sequoia
#

hmm

#

there are some aorus 1080s for like ... 550 on ebay

#

they dont sell well because nobody who does compute wants them - their fans take up 3 pci-e slots

#

but theyre overclocked

sly mortar
#

They were a bit at the start, but once it got a bit slower they were worse than stuff like old 750 TIs

blissful sequoia
#

these things are available very cheap

#

theres a lot of extreme editions for ~550

#

i didnt know why they were so cheap but again, its because theyre oversized

#

i think moorep bought the $850 used one, any sense if those aorus' compare, icanari?

sly mortar
#

Well, would you prefer to have your PC sound like a jet engine or not?

blissful sequoia
#

im not sure if theyre very loud

#

but i cant imagine its worse than any typical stock fan

sly mortar
#

I had an old Aorus.. 750 TI I think it was...

#

holy shit

#

you could hear it 3 rooms away

blissful sequoia
#

but the money you save can just ... buy nice cooling for it or whatever

#

power -> heat -> fan noise

#

anyway, does it compare to the card on his list? if hes already buying used...

sly mortar
#

Their cooling is generally less efficient than EVGAs

#

And EVGA's overclocking is generally slightly better

blissful sequoia
#

but its half the price

#

im getting the sense its comparable and not like a totally different class?

sly mortar
#

Uh... That's ebay...

blissful sequoia
#

same from newegg

sly mortar
#

And there's 4 days left...

blissful sequoia
#

it was just an example,

sly mortar
#

Ah

#

Dunno

blissful sequoia
#

not for moorep

sly mortar
#

Up to moorep

blissful sequoia
#

just like if somebody didnt want to spend 1000 on a evga 1080 refurb

#

his order is already placed

sly mortar
#

Mhm

blissful sequoia
#

i posted a card the other day and you told it me it wasnt comparable and i was surprised

#

so now im doubting being able to identify video card

#

like there might be 3 extra letters that indicates the card is woefully underpowered or something

sly mortar
#

Yeah.

#

I mainly choose EVGA because I've always had a great experience with their card and overclocking, and I've had some... less than great.. experiences with other manufacturers... looking at you Gigabyte and Corsair

blissful sequoia
#

my worst experience was with asus - if i might

sly mortar
#

Haha

#

Asus is shit outside of Mobos

blissful sequoia
#

i bought my nephew a 1050, it died in a month so i RMA, they sent me back a 760 because they cant acquire another 1050 - it breaks in a month, i RMA it, they send me back a 670 gtx

sly mortar
#

Lol

#

That's when you sue

blissful sequoia
#

well it was a $100 video card to start with

#

im pretty sure the filing fees in court are more than that

sly mortar
#

Yeah... but precedent...

blissful sequoia
#

i kept getting downgraded in generation, losing features, but the power was pretty equiv

#

i finally bought him a new 1050 and i kept the 670 and here i am

sly mortar
#

Lol

blissful sequoia
#

i cant blame them exactly - i guess they couldnt find any more replacement cards - it was about 2 years ago in the midst of the video card crisis

sly mortar
#

Then they're supposed to send you back your old one...

blissful sequoia
#

even broken?

#

my assumption is nobody is fixing these things, they just junk it grab a new board

#

solder a new capacitor maybe? at most...

anyone else get frame drops when using weapons?

sly mortar
#

What do you mean?

coral raven
#

like I went from 40 or 50 running to 10 or 15 when I threw a grenade/fired a rifle

blissful sequoia
#

its probably because right click looks farther away

#

10 to 15 is bad tho... hmm

sly mortar
#

Try turning graphics settings down

coral raven
#

it's at low already and 720p

blissful sequoia
#

yea the graphics settings can be adjusted to a very wide range

sly mortar
#

Alright

#

What's your processor / GPU?

#

If you need to find it, you can type dxdiag into your windows search, and it will bring up all of that data.

coral raven
#

i5 8250u, integrated 620 (ouch)

sly mortar
#

Oh

#

That would do it

#

Laptop?

coral raven
#

correct

sly mortar
#

Are you plugged in?

blissful sequoia
#

theres lots of people who play with the intel graphics here i think

sly mortar
#

Yes

#

620 is decent

blissful sequoia
#

yea its higher than my laptop which does ok

coral raven
#

yes, always plugged in, battery settings on high performance

sly mortar
#

Alright

blissful sequoia
#

could it be sound related? hmm

sly mortar
#

Doubt it

coral raven
#

and throttling disabled as well as tubo boost

blissful sequoia
#

why does it happen when he fires

sly mortar
#

Wait

#

Is it when you're aiming, or right as you fire?

coral raven
#

when I fire

sly mortar
#

So as the bullet leaves your gun?

coral raven
#

yeah I dunno, saw that post scriptum has audio issues that drop frames

#

yeah, I think so... not at my PC at the moment

blissful sequoia
#

could it be his left click? maybe its mapped

sly mortar
#

Wait

blissful sequoia
#

or both clicks at once?

sly mortar
#

oooh

blissful sequoia
#

try it without a gun

sly mortar
#

I think I know.. maybe.

#

@coral raven Have you ever tried modifying your controls in the settings menu?

coral raven
#

nope

sly mortar
#

Mhm. Probably not what I was thinking then.

blissful sequoia
#

does fist do it? does hammer do it? only guns + grenades?

sly mortar
#

Once you get back to your computer, go to settings, and make sure that "take screenshot" (in-game settings) is not set to LMB.

coral raven
#

hammer is fine, not sure about fists

sly mortar
#

Alright

coral raven
#

oh

sly mortar
#

That's just a precaution

coral raven
#

I'll check that out

sly mortar
#

It's probably not correct, but worth checking.

blissful sequoia
#

please try with pistol - im curious if looking long range does it or not

sly mortar
#

Other things you could do... try muting yourself, if you're currently on fullscreen, try windowed.

blissful sequoia
#

pistol has short range so its a decent test

coral raven
#

pistol was okay I think

#

I play on windowed 1280x720

sly mortar
#

Hmm

#

Then next time you're playing, open task manager to your CPU page, and see what the usage is when you fire.

blissful sequoia
#

particle effects? maybe thats the cause

coral raven
#

sorry to interrupt your guys' brainstorming but I'm gonna head off and check this out tomorrow

sly mortar
#

You're good.

blissful sequoia
#

might be a video driver thing, thats my best guess at this moment

#

so see if you can update your video drivers tomorrow shrug

#

ok so if i care about noise this aorus is going to be ... an issue, unless...

sly mortar
#

It might have changed by now

blissful sequoia
#

well my assumption was theyre so cheap because of the size, compute folks cant use em, but if its noise... that would explain why gamers arent snapping them all up

sly mortar
#

Their heat sinks are massive though

#

You'll need a CPU support for them

#

My old one feels like picking up a brick.

blissful sequoia
#

yea i would replace the fan

sly mortar
#

You'd need to replace the whole cooler.

blissful sequoia
#

yea

sly mortar
#

The amount of heat sink they have on those would break most motherboards.

blissful sequoia
#

yea i actually ordered some and returned them because of the size, but yea i held one

#

it was pretty large

SERVER DIED

terse flume

#

need to wait for someone with more technical expertise to come on

#

can you call somebody?

proud dagger
terse flume
#

okay

#

i just try to restart router, disable AV and check game files, the remaining steps are clearly unnecessary for me

#

still not working :C

proud dagger

#

@terse flume what is the issue

terse flume
snow carbon
#

did you check read first channel?

terse flume
#

Did you verified files? @terse flume

#

did you check read first channel?
nope, but will do it now

#

Did you verified files?
@terse flume yeah

inner basin
#

Ok hold up

#

@terse flume The shard info is showing, you can see it at the top left

terse flume
#

@inner basin cmn bro, i did it, read upper

inner basin
#

Have you tried changing your DNS?

terse flume
#

DNS are good, couse my firewall detected connections to foxhole server

#

guys, i found a problem

#

looks like my AV blocked Foxhole before and marked as "launch in sanbox"

#

but my AV have several modules, this is why disabling virus protection module not sollute this.

inner basin
#

Disable the whole thing then 😁

terse flume
#

which AV u use

#

@terse flume

#

and try disabling the whole thing as suggested by blade

#

i already decided problem, thanks

#

COMODO

#

😄

#

nevermind then

#

happy foxholing

rose shell
#

hey

#

i have a problem

#

i want to ride in one tank with my friend but i cant

#

how can i fix it?

inner basin
#

Each side of the tank corresponds to a position within that tank

#

For example, in my profile picture, the back side corresponds to the commander's hatch I think

<@&521124241395941396> I have been struggling with my brother to download him foxhole, but his download speed is 11.7 kb/s to 82 kb/s. Everything I knew that should fix it, it just didn't worked. Do you have any other ideas how to help him out? He already checked the firewall, added exception in antivirus, we got fiber optic, so internet speed is great, also tried to clear download cache and checked the dowbload region to be Romania. Nothing seems to work, he still needs to wait 23 hrs xD.

inner basin
#

Is he connected by Ethernet?

upbeat island
#

Sounds like throttling TBH

inner basin
#

Do the following:

  1. Restart Steam
  2. Reconnect your ethernet 😄
lapis steppe
#

I can't believe I forfot to tell him to do that xDDD

#

Okay I will tell him to try it out

terse flume
#

its a steam server issue

dense sand
#

<@&521124241395941396> I have this issue when i first start playing after i launch where i freeze every few seconds but after about 15 min its fine then about another 45 my game crashes. I have validated game files and reinstalled. Anyone know about this issue ?

snow carbon
#

I dont

#

Bad PC?

plucky bluff
#

the issue is most likely bad pc lol

inner basin
#

If you don't know something, why respond? lol

plucky bluff
#

check how the proccess behaves on ctrl alt delete

inner basin
#

@dense sand Mind telling the specs of your PC?

snow carbon
#

So i could give some advise, idk what is csusing the issue but i can guess

plucky bluff
#

also, you should have crash reports

inner basin
#

Also try playing on Windowed Mode, who knows ¯_(ツ)_/¯

terse flume
#

i think ram issues

plucky bluff
#

uhhh

lapis steppe
#

regarding my issue, did not worked. Same problem.

terse flume
#

harvest

snow carbon
#

@dense sand go through and check files, i seen a dude before miss not installing like a 28 mb file

terse flume
#

try downloading any other game

dense sand
#

Msi B350
16gb
1060 6gb
ryzen 5 2600x

plucky bluff
#

can u send 1 of the crash reports

dense sand
#

let me find one

plucky bluff
#

found in username/appdata/local/foxhole/saved/crashes

#

username being your windows username

lapis steppe
#

@terse flume the problem persists on other games, too

terse flume
#

then steam support will help u

#

contact them

dense sand
#

Which part do u want ?

plucky bluff
#

oh my

#

that's a good pc

#

uhh then no need for it i think idk tho

lapis steppe
#

oh, he just told me that it did worked well with some games, but with foxhole and Age of Empires 2 it had a problem

inner basin
#

No @dense sand When it crashes, do you get a crash message?

plucky bluff
#

you might want to update directx?

dense sand
#

Your game has crashed

plucky bluff
#

also i thought u can read up something from the crash log

dense sand
#

thats all it says

inner basin
#

<@&519978491660337183>

#

oops

dense sand
#

bHideLogFilesOption=false
bIsAllowedToCloseWithoutSending=true
CrashConfigPurgeDays=2

plucky bluff
#

but i think if you send the crashlogs to krazy he might pass it on to some1 that knows what's happening?

inner basin
#

@lapis steppe did he restart his computer? restart the router?

plucky bluff
#

no no

dense sand
#

thats what my last log says

plucky bluff
#

the .xml

#

in notepad

dense sand
lapis steppe
#

@inner basin yes, he did

dense sand
#

i dont have a program to open it with says my computer

#

oh nvm

inner basin
#

@lapis steppe Go into Steam's download folder, and delete everything that won't solve speed issues lol

dense sand
#

i opened it

lapis steppe
#

@inner basin and he downloaded crossout just fine some days ago, and today he downloaded Dungeon Rats and it worked and in the mean time, in these couple of days he tried to download AoE2 and didn't worked and also he tried foxhole today, after he downloaded Dungeon Rats

inner basin
#

uhh have you restarted the router though?

dense sand
#

@plucky bluff anything specific you need from it ?

plucky bluff
#

i have it

inner basin
#

It's so weird because you two are using the same router but you are fine Harvester

lapis steppe
#

@inner basin he is doing it right now

inner basin
#

@plucky bluff That XML file doesn't seem to have anything in it

#

The CrashMessage parameter is empty

#

derp help us

blissful sequoia
#

maybe your brother's steam thinks another game is running and wont download?

#

theres an option for that in steam, right?

terse flume
#

which AV u he uses

blissful sequoia
#

but alternatively, maybe file permissions problem, in which case restart pc, restart steam, uninstall foxhole, exit steam, delete the foxhole directories, reinstall

terse flume
#

becoz some AV mess steam servers

plucky bluff
#

yeah i've been trying to find anything about pcallstack but nope lol

blissful sequoia
#

he says other games download on steam fine

lapis steppe
#

hmm, @blissful sequoia that might be a fix, hold on a sec, I will tell him

plucky bluff
#

oh nvm

blissful sequoia
#

windows 8 wtf

#

@lapis steppe there are 2 important directories to delete for a clean foxhole reinstall - they are listed in the pinned message about reinstalling

terse flume
#

derp he is having issues with other games too

blissful sequoia
#

[12:24 PM] [501st] Harvester.: @BladeRikWr and he downloaded crossout just fine some days ago, and today he downloaded Dungeon Rats and it worked and in the mean time

lapis steppe
#

some worked, other don's

blissful sequoia
#

ah

dense sand
#

Oh i see that when i reinstalled foxhole i didnt delete the other part

plucky bluff
#

so basically there's something with your nvwgf2umx.dll @dense sand

dense sand
#

Whats that ?

blissful sequoia
#

my guess is steam was run as administrator at some point and created files or made directories as admin

plucky bluff
#

figuring out

#

but it causes crashes

#

for multiple people in multiple games

lapis steppe
#

so, basically crossout and Dungeon Rats worked, while AoE2 and foxhole didn't

inner basin
#

Run Steam as Admin and try downloading again

blissful sequoia
#

well then youll be stuck using admin for steam all the time...

#

my assumption is that steam hosts all downloads from the same servers

#

so the only difference is where its being downloaded to, which directory - thats my thinking

plucky bluff
#

@dense sand ok so:

  1. Update nvidia drivers
  2. Use CC cleaner to fix up nvidia registry(writing was bad couldn't understand it)
#

and this may be a temporary solution

lapis steppe
#

so, if anybody has this issue and they are using ethernet, restarting router actually fixes it without any other things. I've kept asking cause I thought he tried that, but in the end, he didn't, lol. Okay, thank you everybody, I was running out of ideas xD

dense sand
#

ok so i need to go use cc cleaner then because i updated the driver yesterday

#

ill let you know if it works or not

blissful sequoia
#

oh another thought - one of the files might have a pattern that triggers an antivirus - so maybe anti virus, im sure people might have brought that up

#

anyone not just using microsoft security essentials on windows these days is perhaps getting a little too exotic for their own benefit

plucky bluff
#

@dense sand if you have latest drivers and it's still a problem, apparenty the soultion is rolling back nvidia driver to 352.86 version.

blissful sequoia
#

god thats an OLD driver

plucky bluff
#

AND do not select GeForce Expierience and HD Audio Driver

#

apparently

blissful sequoia
#

unless .. you need the audio out of your monitor

plucky bluff
blissful sequoia
#

either way windows is going to install an audio driver lol

dense sand
#

Well im testing it now

plucky bluff
#

@inner basin the solution to crashing problem was that crash logs contain the name of the .dll file that failed, just google that file and look for the problems. for the nvwgf2umx.dll solution is rolling nvidia driver back to 352.86 version and not selecting geforce expierience and hd audio driver

#

at least i guess

#

i don't see anything beside kernel32 on his crash log

dense sand
#

It crashed when i closed the game

#

saying fatal error

plucky bluff
#

crash log?

dense sand
#

i use the cleaner part of cc cleaner right ?

plucky bluff
#

i swear

#

that and roll back the drivers

dense sand
#

how do i roll it back ?

plucky bluff
#

oh sh

#

doesn't support 1060

#

you're in unluck

#

if it's not compatible

#

but i guess download 960x

dense sand
#

the new driver ? or the one you just sent

plucky bluff
#

the one i just sent

dense sand
#

ok

blissful sequoia
#

you can roll back to a different driver if you want, one not as old

#

perhaps something in the 3.9x range

#

3.85 maybe

plucky bluff
#

yeah that's the "latest that didn't do the problem"

blissful sequoia
#

ive got more questions for you @dense sand

#

does other people firing guns drop frames for you? if someone else throws a smoke grenade for example?

dense sand
#

No

#

Once I stay in for about 15 min the small feezes stop then everything works fine till the game decides to crash about 40 min later

#

Could you support me with a link to an older driver?

plucky bluff
#

it's googable

terse flume
#

he has a1060 why u all r suggesting older drivers

plucky bluff
#

cuz those help

terse flume
#

what about other games then

dense sand
#

My other games are just fine

plucky bluff
#

the problem he's having occured in multiple games

#

apparently that's the fix

blissful sequoia
#

@dense sand whats the video card again?

plucky bluff
#

1060

dense sand
#

Msi gtx 1060 6gb

blissful sequoia
#

oh jeez i was thinking this was like a laptop

terse flume
#

ham

dense sand
#

Yes?

blissful sequoia
#

jeez i wouldnt think old drivers are the fix for a 1060

terse flume
#

first reinstall ur drivers

dense sand
#

The VC drivers ?

terse flume
#

remove ur current drivers

#

and reinstall them from msi

plucky bluff
#

that might also be the fix

#

idk

#

i just know that it's nvidia drivers fault

blissful sequoia
#

hope that comes up right...

dense sand
#

The do video card drivers ? Everything else in under maintenance drivers

terse flume
#

do that before u go back to older drivers

blissful sequoia
#

newest ones are 419.35

plucky bluff
#

he said he updated ysterday

dense sand
#

My game worked fine 3 days ago

blissful sequoia
#

@dense sand where did you update from? nvidia site or windows updates?

plucky bluff
#

fine 3 days ago

#

and then u updated drivers?

dense sand
#

The GeForce experience program

#

I updated drivers after the problem started

blissful sequoia
#

where does one find the driver version? i just want to confirm its 419.35

plucky bluff
#

jeez

#

then roll back the drivers to that version

#

that wasn't causing the problem

sly quiver
#

@blissful sequoia if you go on device manager and select your gpu you can see the driver version

blissful sequoia
#

@dense sand can you just check that real quick?

plucky bluff
#

you just gotta snipe it
like try one from 1 month

dense sand
#

The current driver is 419.35

blissful sequoia
#

ok so ... game worked fine, but now you load it, when you fire or throw grenades it lags hmm...

#

i dont think there was a graphics patch 2-3 days ago ... hmmm

dense sand
#

Like just sitting still I get the freezes

#

After the freezes stop everything is fine

blissful sequoia
#

it honestly sounds like another program running in the background - but i cannot explain the crash 40 minutes later

terse flume
#

is ur video card fan working

blissful sequoia
#

yea was wondering that too - maybe heat is the cause of the crash

dense sand
#

Uh oh

#

They aren't running

blissful sequoia
#

😮

#

you can just see they arent running?!

dense sand
#

I took the case side off

#

I can confirm they aren't running

plucky bluff
#

@blissful sequoia you're great at leading people off track

blissful sequoia
#

hmm well thats your prob

plucky bluff
#

i arleady found the issue

blissful sequoia
#

@plucky bluff i was heading that direction, i wanted to rule out the video card drivers

dense sand
#

Don't they start running when they are needed to?

plucky bluff
#

it's with nvwgf2umx.dll

blissful sequoia
#

nah its not

#

red herring

plucky bluff
#

not like it's in the crash log

#

:^)

blissful sequoia
#

that was a crash context, not a crash reason

dense sand
#

Cause I have alot of fan cooling the whole case

plucky bluff
#

there's no crash reason

blissful sequoia
#

@dense sand no video card fans run all the time

plucky bluff
#

bcs devs great at doing crash log system lol

dense sand
#

The fans are running now

blissful sequoia
#

was there a wire stuck in them? what made them start running

#

maybe the fans are shot and when they spin down to 20% they seize up

dense sand
#

I launched a game

blissful sequoia
#

video card fans are very easy to replace...

#

ok so you need to grab a temperature monitoring kit, fan speed monitor

#

it will allow you to manually set the VGA fan to 100% for example

#

lagging behavior and driver crashes is very consistent with heat problems

dense sand
#

Oh I think my game is fixed

blissful sequoia
#

lol while the fans turn yea

dense sand
#

I don't think that's the issue because then I would have the same issue in other games

blissful sequoia
#

im willing to bet you might

#

in the last couple days

#

especially if they like to peg the graphics card at 100% like foxhole does hehe

#

maybe thats just my card...

#

anyway you should monitor the temperature and fan speed, if youre seeing like 95C+ on the video card, it might be overheating

dense sand
#

I'll give that I check

#

Thanks for the help

plucky bluff
#

really that was the fix?

blissful sequoia
#

theres no fix yet

plucky bluff
#

i guess

blissful sequoia
#

it just started working lol

#

makes me think it will just stop working again too

#

like seriously if you opened up your computer and the video card fans werent turning you would be concerned, right?

#

windows is using 3d accell, so its not like the video card is under 0 strain when not playing games

terse flume
#

overheating burned ma motherboard

dense sand
#

Yeah but I'm pretty sure the 1060 has the smart feature

terse flume
#

:(

blissful sequoia
#

hm ok, i bet icanari would know

#

yea i guess they dont turn on until 60C?

dense sand
#

I have some other fans and my case itself inside is really cool

blissful sequoia
#

seems pretty hot, i dont like my video card over 60

#

ok so fan spinning, probably not the issue, but check temperature at least once to make sure its not that

#

random fixing is lame, super unsatisfying

dense sand
#

I'm in the process of that

blissful sequoia
#

thats pretty great, 1060 must be pretty damn quiet most of the time...

dense sand
#

It is

blissful sequoia
#

are 1080s like that as well?

#

they probably idle at 65C hehe

terse flume
#

well my 1060maxq burned my motherboard

dense sand
#

Idk never seen a 1080 in person

terse flume
#

made me cost 150

dense sand
#

What board?

#

I spent 80 on my b350 tomahawk

blissful sequoia
#

b350 ...

#

affordable chipset... heh

#

i see those boards come on sale for <$40

ashen fractal
#

well i shit my pants

terse flume
#

i have a dell G7 idk what board

dense sand
#

I'm still in have so my part time job doesn't pay well

#

Hs

#

My card is running at 49c

blissful sequoia
#

ok heat is fine then

#

thats very cool

#

so what did you change since yesterday, when it wasnt working?

dense sand
#

I just updated my driver

#

But you were right my game is freezing again

#

Oh and now it stopped

#

I'm confused

terse flume
#

try lowering the graphics

blissful sequoia
#

yea me too, doesnt it seem like something is building up and then crashing?

dense sand
#

I did that too

blissful sequoia
#

is foxhole using a ton of memory before it crashes? or is it constantly growing?

dense sand
#

My membership usage sits around 47 percent while in game

terse flume
#

do u get a stopped running message or it just closes

dense sand
#

It closes then says fatal error when it happens

blissful sequoia
#

and youve already done the full reinstall of foxhole, Hambino?

terse flume
#

any thing else on the message

#

any numbers

#

can u screen shot the message

dense sand
#

Not properly I found out that I need to delete other files after I delete from steam so I'll give that a shot

#

I can't screenshot it till it crashes

blissful sequoia
#

yea ... we've had a few cases where people get spontaenous corrupt game data

terse flume
#

dx version?

#

9 or 11

#

if 11 revert it back to nine

blissful sequoia
#

is that even possible on windows 10?

terse flume
#

no

#

but u can cheat it

#

every game folder has two dll files

#

@dense sand

#

this is for banished but it will work for foxhole too

torn ravine
#

Got some weird voice chat bug with no error in chat box. Whenever I join an op, the voice chat works for a few seconds then goes out. If I use my op chat or local voice it stops me from hearing others in the op immediately. Any fix?

#

Also restarted my game and reconnected and all that

proud dagger
torn ravine
#

@proud dagger figured it was a common issue. The only fix I've found other than maybe deleting and verifying is when I cross a map border with my opchat push to talk held

proud dagger
#

yup

blissful sequoia
#

uhh who else had this problem recently...

#

it was blake, he said "Blake: I have, works fine with a pair of normal headphones and actually when I disable the mic portion of the bt headphones it works fine, it’s when I enable the mic everything shuts down audio wise."

#

when he swapped out his mic, it was working

#

"Blake: They work fine on everything except foxhole, even in foxhole they work until 4 seconds in then everything goes silent."

torn ravine
#

@proud dagger I ran through the post you linked me and it didn't work

proud dagger
#

hm

#

@inner basin <@&521124241395941396> anyone who has other solutions

blissful sequoia
#

test with another mic

#

thats what blake did

torn ravine
#

hmm gives me an idea

blissful sequoia
#

it could be network related - antivirus or firewall, particularly the firewall

#

it could be disconnecting the connection after a few seconds

#

the voice connection is a separate network connection from the game's connection to server

torn ravine
#

happened when i was talking in op voice just before crossing a map border

blissful sequoia
#

yea it changes voice servers i think when you change maps

#

although ... op chat shouldnt...

#

i dunno maybe it reconnects. MrStevie, have you tried the reconnect button in foxhole settings for voice?

torn ravine
#

Yeah

blissful sequoia
#

it disconnects after that?

torn ravine
#

Ok so

#

I just noticed when I join the map I was on after restarting my game, I see the Operations box still up on the right that lists "Recent voice" however I'm not in the op when I rejoin the game

#

And I just tried switching my devices over to a different one before restarting

proud dagger

<@&521124241395941396> need help

rocky python
#

I take it all other games run without problems?

rain jewel
#

yes sir

rocky python
#

Also, did the above attempts fail to launch in windowed or does windowed not solve it?

rain jewel
#

the game launches but remains in a black screen

rocky python
#

Normally this is caused by wrong resolution settings. To confirm. He CAN run in windowed and the windowed game still has a black screen?

rain jewel
#

yup

terse flume
#

I think the game is using integrated graphics

#

Not dedicated

rain jewel
#

i have no idea what to make of that tbh

rocky python
#

Most pc's have two ways of running graphics. Your Graphics card, the 1050 Ti. And your motherboard. Which has a weak graphics card.

#

It is capable of running windows, but can't handle a full on game. Though this wouldn't explain how he can run other games normally. So i'd rule this out as a possible cause.

#

Could you try going to the 'GameUserSettings.ini' file again and change the resolution settings?

#

Normally deleting this file like you already did should solve this issue. A black screen on start on this game only is nearly always a resolution problem. So changing the resolution to a low setting should allow you to run the game normally and edit it again there.

#

What you could still try: Run the game in compatibility settings for a different windows.

#

Right click the War.exe file and go to properties.
