FATAL ERROR ON AMD GRAPHICS CARD

If you're using an AMD Graphics card, check your driver version. Only versions 20.1.2 and upwards will work as it fixes a bug that occurred in previous drivers.

#

now to wait until a DM is available

ruby island
#

dm?

inner basin
#

discord mod, for pinning the new message

ruby island
#

ah

#

well it should be pushed over windows update and will probably be forced installed to most systems

#

so you will get way less people asking about it

#

dont worry windows is great at forcing updates

inner basin
#

😅 that's good to know

Hey, hoping I can find some aid in this group, but not 100% on who to ping or ask. I've had the game for about a week or so, but have yet to be able to play the game. Comes up with an error box saying 'fatal error' and crashes out each time I try to launch it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, and tried verifying integrity of the game files. So far nothing has worked. if anyone could help me figure out what is going wrong, that'd be great. And scrolled up to see something about graphics drivers, while I was waiting out the timer...already checked that, mine is saying it's up to date, so that's not the problem, either. And have tried launching it with absolutely everything shut down, except steam in order to launch it. I'm running out of ideas on what to do. But it seems to just be me, as others I know have been playing it this whole time without being able to figure out what is wrong on my side. So it's not a bug in the game, as far as I know, which means it has to be something on my end, but I have no idea what.

ruby island
#

@lost pagoda if you have an amd card update your drivers

lost pagoda
#

I already addressed that suggestion. Already checked and made sure they were up to date.

ruby island
#

which version

#

up to date could mean on 19.12.2 if cache hasn't updated

#

which is bugged

lost pagoda
#

The driver I got pulled up I'm looking at now says version 26.20.15002.61

Which is to say, I may be looking at the wrong driver all together, but absolutely none of my drivers are coming up as needing updates

ruby island
#

pretty sure thats bugged

#

19.12.2 is bugged

#

download from the link i sent

lost pagoda
#

downloading, will update once it's done and I try again.

ruby island
#

you also might want to do a clean install as there was a bug i saw with not properly updating reported with amd

#

i am seen a few instances of it

lost pagoda
#

I've already reinstalled it several times, so another go at it can't hurt. I'll give that a go while I'm at it to try and hit it from each angle.

ruby island
#

ya thats driver version i sent will work to fix the issue but there is a chance not all components will be installed due to a bug

#

i have no clue what conditions trigger it

#

but i have seen it a few times

#

as for no driver updates showing up what gpu do you have

#

because 20.1.3 should show up a recommended

#

and a download through radeon software

#

the only 2 options i can see is if your gpu from whatever reason has been dropped from support and will not offer you new driver versions or the update is hitting cache

#

i dont think any gpus have been dropped so pretty sure you are just hitting cache

lost pagoda
#

ok, I got blind-sided by the restart. And plz keep in mind, I'm nothing close to a tech guy, I barely understand how computers work well enough to play video games, so I don't know what your asking about. But the driver is installed, re-installing the game, and as for the driver....I use Driver Booster. if it don't show a driver needs and update, I don't see it, and it didn't show this update for my drivers. Still, will know soon-ish if that fixed the issue.

ruby island
#

well uhhh never ever ever use a external driver installer

#

those generally install adware and other things on top of most the time not official drivers

#

and you didnt need to reinstall the game

#

realistically the only drivers you will ever need to update are gpu drivers

#

other then that as long as other stuff works reasonably well you dont need to update other drivers

#

and windows most the time will keep you reasonably updated without any input anyways

lost pagoda
#

If I didn't need to reinstall, what did you mean when you suggested clean install?

ruby island
#

ohhh when i meant clean install i meant clean install the driver

lost pagoda
#

and I don't know what a gpu is, so I don't know what driver to look for.

ruby island
#

ahhh

#

sorry for not making that clear

lost pagoda
#

as for not using an outside driver installer...I assume Driver booster is one of those ,but without such a program, I have no idea how to even find the drivers I need, or know when what drivers are out of date.

ruby island
#

they rebranded it

#

well as i originally said that only drivers you will ever have to worry about is gpu drivers

#

your gpu is what runs anything graphical

lost pagoda
#

And the pic you sent is something I couldn't place, I have no idea where that is, unless your talking factory reset the whole computer, and I'd greatly prefer if that isn't a thing I need to do.

ruby island
#

oh no no thats when you run the application from the link i sent

#

but if the game works with just a normal install dont worry about it

#

i would recommend removing any external driver installers

#

and if you ever need help with drivers i will most likely be here as this isnt just for foxhole help

lost pagoda
#

Game finally successfully launched, barring unexpected errors, seems that solved the issue. I'll worry about dealing with Driver booster and finding where the program from the link went and hid itself so I can make a thumbnail link or something to it for later use once I work with the guys that been waiting like...a week for me to be able to join them, so they can finally drag me in....knowing them, in a trial-by-fire means of learning.

ruby island
#

just make sure to use radeon software which should be installed to update your gpu drivers

#

as that is the official app and will pull the correct drivers for you

#

other then that do not worry about any other drivers for your system

#

they are pretty much handled by windows at this point

#

other then that have fun with the game

summer dew
#

uh I have tried refreshing the server list but still got the same message 😦

ruby island
summer dew
#

yes I’ve tried all those method...again lol

ruby island
#

do you have an anti virus or firewall

summer dew
#

nope
all turned off

#

I mean I ‘ve turned off the anti virus and allow the game to pass through the firewall

#

should I turn off the firewall totally?

ruby island
#

well if its a third party firewall yes but do not turn off windows firewall

#

do this press win button + r and type %appdata% go back a directory to the appdata folder and go into local\foxhole\saved\logs and send the war.log on https://pastebin.com/ that would be the latest log the game generated

#

@summer dew Are you able to get in the home region at all?

summer dew
#

nope
not at all 😦

ruby island
#

nvidia has a weird habbit of doing this probably due to a bugged version

#

i have seen it do all sorts of things

summer dew
#

yes I did
it’s already the latest version and solved the problem that cannot travel through border on 2/4

quick island
#

Hey y'all. I'm having some trouble with my PTT in game. It was working last night with no changes made, but now when I hit ANY button I set to activate PTT, nothing pops up.

Tried to reconnect a few times; closed the game, restarted, unplugged the microphone; set it to a different microphone... But it doesn't appear to want to activate in game.

quick island
#

Well; now I'm getting the old and true [8] 6-0 error, the usual reconnect/restart fix isn't fixing it.

#

Looks like the error was with Voicemeter Banana; that I use for streaming and sound gating. 😦

ruby island
#

i dont think the [8] 6-0 error would be caused by voice meter

#

@quick island the [8] 6-0 error means a connection issue nothing to do with voice meter

#

there was some connections issues with voice chat recently

sly mortar
#

@quick island I heavily doubt the error is Voicemeeter. In the past before we had better solutions, installing and setting up voicemeeter was a workaround that we actively used to help people.

quick island
#

🤔 I have no idea just what it was doing then; As soon as I turned Voicemeter off (Full program close), I was able to use PTT again no problem, and as soon as I turned VM back on, PTT wouldn't activate on the keypress.
It's got to be some weird thing on my side, but right now, I'll just play without VM on; until I come up with a working solution.

ruby island
#

@quick island try the output on something else to verify that voice meter is actually outputting sound

#

as for the error its was probably temporarily down

gentle otter
#

Having a problem with getting myself deployed, often ended up with lost connection while loading, also problem with traveling to another region, always ended up with the same thing as well. I have updated my drivers, and yes, i have a broadband internet connection. Any ideas ?

ruby island
quick island
#

@ruby island Yeah, that was the first thing I checked. It's not so much that people can't hear me, but that PTT just wouldn't activate...

ruby island
#

the mic icon only appears when your mic is outputting

#

meaning if you just press the ptt button nothing will appear until you actually start talking

#

or the game sees a level output with the mic

#

a program like voice meter would not interfere with the games ptt

#

@quick island verify that when you talk sound comes out of the correct recording device in the sound control panel and set it as both default device and default communication device

gentle otter
#

@ruby island i can't, it says that i've reached the maximum paste size, i dont know why but my logs file is pretty big

ruby island
#

can you just send the log file over discord then

gentle otter
#

here you go

ruby island
#

great i see vivox errors

gentle otter
#

so, is that a really bad error ?

ruby island
rotund fiber
ruby island
#

@rotund fiber do you have any firewall or anti virus software

rotund fiber
#

If your don't then that makes you a muppet of sorts

ruby island
#

of you do then disable all their protection stuff

rotund fiber
#

Maybe

ruby island
#

could be interfering with the game

rotund fiber
#

I doubt that

ruby island
#

has it worked previously

rotund fiber
#

ok

ruby island
#

if that doesnt work next you can try verifying the game files

gentle otter
#

Still having the same issue, especially region with high population, @ruby island

ruby island
#

so does it just refuse to connect or does it stay connected for a bit then disconnect you

gentle otter
#

It says, retrying connection

#

And then at attempt numb. Around 2 or 3 always ended up with lost connection

ruby island
gentle otter
#

@ruby island still not working😞

ruby island
#

can you send a updated log now @gentle otter

#

btw war.log is the latest log that the game generated

distant dragon
#

#MFGA

quick island
#

@ruby island Yea; just brought everything back up and retested it, It all works fine, off of Foxhole. Right now, I'm thinking that its actually Foxhole looping back through Voicemeter because I'm setting the output for my voicemeter wrong somehow, since my friends are saying that they can hear my game audio on Discord; when I was testing it out. I'm fairly sure I'm to stupid to actually figure out what the hell I'm doing wrong. ThinkingDrawnThinkingDrawnThinkingDrawn

ruby island
#

ya well good luck last time i used voice meter i was lost and had to watch like an hour long video just on a tutorial just to firgure it out

#

that was stupid

quick island
#

magLol Yea; I'll just not use a mixer while playing Foxhole, since that's the thing messing up PTT for me.

gentle otter
quick island
#

Solved it! PTT was looping back; changing the output fixed it.

ruby island
#

@gentle otter well the only thing i can think left for you to do is install a vpn and enable it and see if the same issue occurs to take your isp and some other variables out

gentle otter
#

okay then i'll do it

#

thank you very much for the help !

#

apreciate it !

ruby island
#

yeet

#

you can use proton vpn they are free and pretty good

#

that would remove the potential of your isp messing with stuff

autumn dawn
#

Can you do anything with foxhole api other than make map bots

karmic whale
#

There is a bot which tells you when the tech research is finished and how long the next takes
So yes

daring kraken
#

"war service connection failed" message, cant deploy (map doesnt work), all other game in steam work properly... what should i do? cant play for a few month :*(

inner basin
#

@karmic whale err that's not part of the API though, more like guestimation from the site owners HBjoy

#

@autumn dawn You could make a timeline or graph of casualties as the war progresses 🙂

#

WarAPI provides some other info besides who owns what

lilac hamlet
#

I need help. My in game voice chat is choppy as hell. Anyone have any idea on how to fix it

hollow sand
#

ok i keep logging in and get to the deployment map and there's nothing showing up to deploy at and then i'm loosing connection... what's going on here.

#

@daring kraken similar as of today

cursive wing
#

hello, how to fix failed to download profile 1?

glad harness
#

Any interest in building a GraphQL API for the War API?

#

I think that might be a cool way to increase third party development around the game, especially due to how relational and nested the existing dataset is

#

Are you guys using Dynamo on AWS for the DataStore by chance?

pulsar trellis
#

OK new update
still can't play

#

Help

#

First time I asked for help was in september from last year

#

For details its still the same : on launch, I only get a blackscreen that leads to a crash after like 5 seconds

#

THE THING IS

#

If I play offline it runs perfectly fine, I can explore the main menu, the options and all, except when I turn the wifi back on and click refresh, which leads to an almost instant crash

#

I did hard reset, soft reset, played on mobile data, downloaded the game multiple times, played without my firewall and my antivirus...

ruby island
#

@pulsar trellis send logs by pressing win button + r and type %appdata% go back a directory to the appdata folder and go into local\foxhole\saved\logs and send war.log on https://pastebin.com/

pulsar trellis
#

here is a gift

ruby island
#

fresh install the latest nvidia gpu drivers and download directly from nvidias site

pulsar trellis
#

Hmmmm ok

ruby island
#

also i see config errors

#

delete the saved directory where you got the log from

pulsar trellis
#

As you wish sir

ruby island
#

and start the game after fresh installing the nvidia drivers

pulsar trellis
#

Ok then
Hmmm it's also downloading the geforce experience thing

ruby island
#

yes for some reason nvidia like to report unknown and tends to cause lots of issues within the game

#

also i see Couldn't resolve host name

#

you might also need to change dns servers

pulsar trellis
ruby island
#

i like 1.1.1.1 better then googles dns

pulsar trellis
#

@ruby island

#

like that ?

ruby island
#

yup

#

now open command prompt and run ipconfig /flushdns

pulsar trellis
#

done

ruby island
#

and assuming you have installed the latest gpu drivers launch the gane

pulsar trellis
#

drivers good too

#

Hmmmm...

ruby island
#

same thing?

pulsar trellis
#

nah black screen and crash :((

ruby island
#

if that doesnt work then send the crash report generated in the saved folder

pulsar trellis
#

Also it doesn't make crash reports huuuu

ruby island
#

can you verify the game then try to launch

pulsar trellis
#

launched

#

crash

ruby island
#

so reload the view of windows explorer doesnt refresh with a crashes directory

pulsar trellis
#

But as I said the strangest part is that when launching offline it works perfectly fine

ruby island
#

that to me makes no sense

pulsar trellis
#

I know right ?

#

5 months man

ruby island
#

if it didnt generate a crash report then it never crashed and must have generated a normal log

#

resent war.log

pulsar trellis
ruby island
#

that will be the latest log generated

pulsar trellis
#

ho ok

#

pastebin again ?

ruby island
#

yup

ruby island
#

hmmm still getting this

pulsar trellis
#

I am sure the last ones are installed

#

Even got the confirmation message

ruby island
#

and you did restart correct

pulsar trellis
#

My pc ?

ruby island
#

yes

pulsar trellis
#

COming back

ruby island
#

k

pulsar trellis
#

Am back

#

pc restarted

#

after launching the game

ruby island
#

hmmm can you link the page for the driver download

pulsar trellis
#

here ?

#

well its in french but it's nvidia's official website

ruby island
#

but like the specific page detailing the driver

#

that you downloaded

pulsar trellis
#

ho right

ruby island
#

hmmm

#

thats strange that it doesnt generate a crash log

pulsar trellis
#

I feel like the game doesn't even actually load

ruby island
#

its almost like the game exist on purpose

pulsar trellis
#

so, no time to create log

ruby island
#

but even the log has no trace it just ends

pulsar trellis
#

Huuuu

ruby island
#

if the game crashes regardless of what stage it should create a crash dump

pulsar trellis
ruby island
#

hmmm it might be something with steam

pulsar trellis
#

Ho

#

didn't think of that

ruby island
#

make sure your internet is connected and in steam go to the top left and click steam then go offline then try to run the game

pulsar trellis
#

Hmmmm...

ruby island
#

does it crash

pulsar trellis
#

Nope didn't wor

#

work*

#

so yeah, crash

ruby island
#

hmm then its not a steam thing

pulsar trellis
ruby island
#

i still dont understand why internet would affect a game to crash

#

have you tried lan as opposed to wlan

pulsar trellis
#

HMMMMM I think I did a while ago

#

But I could try again (not now tho, its 3 am for me)

ruby island
#

to make the game work did you disable wlan entirely or just disconnect from the network

pulsar trellis
#

I just disconnect from my wifi, then connect again

ruby island
#

so you dont actually turn it off just disconnect iot and leave it searching from wifi networks

pulsar trellis
#

Yeah I just leave it searching and "forget" the ones I know the password of

ruby island
#

thats weird

pulsar trellis
#

saberdefault
very weird

ruby island
#

maybe try going to your laptops site and download the wlan driver

pulsar trellis
#

yas

ruby island
#

maybe some kind of driver issue

#

this is just all speculation at this point

pulsar trellis
#

got wlan driver

ruby island
#

install it and restart

pulsar trellis
#

okok

#

installed and restarted

#

Do I try launching the game ?

ruby island
#

ya

pulsar trellis
#

Haaaaa the first launch after a restart always gives me so much hope

#

but nah :((

ruby island
#

hmmm comparing it to my log everything looks normal no errors out of place

pulsar trellis
#

Then why foxhole ? whyyyyyyyy

ruby island
pulsar trellis
ruby island
#

well uhhh maybe its a problem with windows dlls or something

#

open up command prompt in admin and run this DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and wait for it to complete then restart

pulsar trellis
#

wtf I need more perms

#

I'm admin

ruby island
#

did you accept the prompt

pulsar trellis
#

Ho wait let me try again

#

Yeah ok forgot to LAUNCH with admin

ruby island
#

run that command and restart after it finishes

pulsar trellis
#

ok then

#

nope again

ruby island
#

well uhh the only think i can think of is windows thats causing the problem as there is no crash dump so the game is somehow getting shutdown on purpose how that relates to the internet idk

pulsar trellis
#

Thats ok I will go to sleep and try to find more solutions tomorrow

ruby island
#

you can try tomorrow disabling your wifi entirely within the adapter screen and connect using lan

#

and see if the same result happens

pulsar trellis
#

Ho right I will try the lan thing

ruby island
#

make sure to disable wifi entirely

#

not just disconnect

pulsar trellis
#

Ok !

pulsar trellis
#

Hmmmm...
Nope, Lan didn't work

blissful sequoia
#

Got any Bluetooth stuff enabled?

ruby island
#

bluetooth would not make the game crash without making a dump of the crash

#

and disconnecting from the internet seems to make the game work

#

otherwise it just a blank screen and closes

#

seemingly by purpose as no crash log is generated and the normal log just cuts off

blissful sequoia
#

actually it does.

#

it has the same symptom, so...

ruby island
#

but why would disconnecting a wifi network cause the game to crash even if in both cases hypothetically there was a bluetooth headset attached

blissful sequoia
#

i dont know why. i dont have the code.

#

just because i dont understand the mechanism doesnt mean i havent observed it

#

basically what ive seen is weird networks can cause the game to crash, weird wifi issues or bluetooth

#

removing the network means it doesnt crash, but obviously you still cant play. 🤷‍♂️

ruby island
#

well then lets find out @pulsar trellis do you have any sort of bluetooth adapter or headset

pulsar trellis
#

Nope, I could check if bluetooth is on ok my pc but thats all

ruby island
#

can you disable all forms of bluetooth if your laptop has it

#

i think you can go into adapter settings and disable it

#

then go into recording and playback settings and make sure that there is only 1 device enabled and set for default of both communication and default

#

that would complete eliminate any sort of audio issues

#

or bluetooth stuff

blissful sequoia
#

It only happens if a device is connected

pulsar trellis
#

Hmmmm yeah my bluetooth is disabled by default

#

But this whole issue is so weird

karmic whale
#

Really funny idea...try putting in another Boot Drive and install Windows completely fresh on it.
install Steam
install Foxhole

Test the whole thing.

pulsar trellis
#

How can I do that without having to hard reset ?

karmic whale
#

As said...put another Boot Drive into the PC

#

like take the (probably SSD) out put another in and install Windows on it

pulsar trellis
#

I'm a laptop bastard, I only have one ssd in, and no hdd

karmic whale
#

laptop manufacturer?

pulsar trellis
#

hp

karmic whale
#

Which one?

pulsar trellis
#

HP Pavilion 15-cs3001nf

karmic whale
#

There are several things you can try.
Some you did already some not.

  1. Hard Reset
  2. Using a VM an installing on it another Windows Installation trying the game there
  3. Reinstalling Steam and Foxhole
  4. Updating your Windows (Check for Updates, Windows is weird like that)
  5. deactivating the iGPU within the Bios
  6. Updating Bios HP got there this nice software solution for Windows
  7. Catching the Internet Traffic trough your Ethernet or Wireless Adapter and looking trough the Packages what happens before the Game crashes.

and several over thing I'm not thinking of right now because i'm tired af

#

Be warned...some of the stuff is not really something for beginners

pulsar trellis
#

I already got a VM so let me try that

karmic whale
#

k, I hope you have luck but i'm tapping out...as said tired af

pulsar trellis
#

Thats ok a few more days of wait isn't a lot compared to the 5 months

karmic whale
#

you could always ask for KFC for a bit of help and if he has the time for it, cause its weird that it doesn`t work with you....my guess is that its perhaps the weird MX250...but thats just a wild guess on my side

#

ahh...8. deactivate dGPU and use the iGPU

#

😄

pulsar trellis
#

Poor kfc, he already spent so much time trying to help me a few months ago

pulsar trellis
#

But I don't think it's a gpu issue, as it run perfectly fine when I'm offline

blissful sequoia
#

im too lazy to scroll up - do you have 2 network devices to test with? is it the same on both?

#

can you screen shot your network devices control panel so we can see the adapters?

#

i am suspicious about you already have a VM, and virtual network adapters. perhaps uninstalling your VM software (particularly the virtual bridge) is a worthy test

pulsar trellis
#

What do you mean by two network devices ? My english is bad :')

And I could uninstall my VM software, will try that later

blissful sequoia
#

network adapter

#

wired + wireless

#

which VM software is it?

rotund fiber
#

I can't get my mic working

rotund fiber
#

It worked ok before the update. not it can't pick up my voice

pulsar trellis
#

Ho ok I will check and tell you
For the VM software, it's the oracle VM one

#

@terse flume needs some assistance.

#

Go ahead and ask here

terse flume
#

Game on startup goes black or doesn't pull up at all, game application is open, and the designated solution has not helped, nor has my previous one.

grand silo
#

Only suggestion I have left is to check the games file integrity

terse flume
#

I did that and reinstalled the game three times.

grand silo
#

Otherwise out of my expertise

#

Roger

terse flume
#

Also tried to change compatibility to Windows 7 and 8.

Operating on 10 btw

grand silo
#

Frustrating

#

I do hope someone can read this and help

terse flume
#

I got it to work TWICE. Both were due to me enabling windows 8 compatibility, now it straight dosen't work

#

the second time didn't even get into the battle

grand silo
ruby island
#

@terse flume amd card?

terse flume
#

Nope

#

no card

ruby island
#

igpu?

terse flume
#

ye

#

I think*

ruby island
terse flume
#

Lemme open up discord on my pc

#

my guess is the last line causing the issue

ruby island
#

na thats a normal error

#

what about go back a directory and into crashes

terse flume
#

only one from 24th of last year

ruby island
#

oof hmmm

terse flume
#

oh god its large

ruby island
#

maybe try updating your gpu driver its about 2 years out of date

terse flume
#

Gonna sound stupid, but how?

ruby island
#

is this a laptop

terse flume
#

Yes

ruby island
#

ok go to the manufactures site of your laptop and find drivers or downloads for it and type in the model of your laptop

#

then it will give you all of the driver downloads for your laptop

#

find the intel or vga drivers and get them

terse flume
#

rgr

grand silo
#

Hoping for good news

terse flume
#

trying to get this shit to install

ruby island
#

did you install them

terse flume
#

Cant find where to shove the install .exe

#

gonna download straight EXE this time

#

see if it works

#

because its SUPPOSED TO

terse flume
#

Nothing

ruby island
#

are you sure that is the correct model you put in

terse flume
#

i think i got it updated

#

await test

#

nada

ruby island
#

did you restart after updating

terse flume
#

negative

#

I presume I should do so?

ruby island
#

ya drivers are not fully installed till a restart

terse flume
#

joy, ok restarting

terse flume
#

@ruby island no dice

#

wait

#

ill wait to 0300

ruby island
terse flume
#

correct

#

let's see if I can actually get in though

#

Timing out is F. U. N.

ruby island
#

so did you get in or are you timing out

terse flume
#

Got in

#

game is laggy as all hell though

ruby island
#

ya well unfortunately that what laptop igpus are

#

they are not designed for gaming and tend to be on low power chips meaning they really cant do much

steel gate
#

Hey guys, read that I could have my faction switched if I spoke to someone in the Discord, is this still a thing? New back to the game

#

...and messed up and picked the wrong one

you have 15minutes before you are faction-locked

#

otherwise send a dm to Mod Mail, mods can help

#

usually, players will need to have not played for at least 24 consecutive hours before the request is considered

steel gate
#

Even though I changed before 15 mins, I still didn't get onto the team

#

Said faction switching not allowed

#

Which is obviously not ideal but that's how it goes 🙂

raven plinth
#

After 6 min you are faction locked @steel gate if u are locked you can ask a mod after that u will have acces to the game for 24hour, it's to prevent giving fresh intel

steel gate

He sorted me out already pal, thanks for the help!

@ruby island can a 100% disk usage is the cause of my traveling problem ?

ruby island
#

well that would cause slow loading of the maps

#

you can defragment to help that

#

unless you have a ssd

blissful sequoia
#

100% disk usage will break your whole OS julianlol clean some of that up jesus.

gentle otter
#

Defragment doesnt help at all

#

Send help

#

Im dying

#

Ps : im not a computer expert at all, i came from stoneage

ruby island
#

unfortunately on slow hard drives thats all windows does is 100%

#

my old laptop when started is pinned for like 10-20 minutes at 100% and when i press the start button that pins it for at least the next 5 minutes

#

problem is windows instead of caching most commonly used stuff it just loads what is vital to the system at the moment meaning anything you do in windows will use the hard drive

#

this gives the effect of a faster pc on boot but you suffer when loading anything

#

thats also why the most annoying thing in windows happens where you right click something and it takes like a minute to load a fucking context menu

gentle otter
#

Hmm

#

Rip me

#

Thanks for the help !

foggy sky
#

Put windows onto a dedicated SSD is probably the best thing you can do for your computer nowadays. I recommend 128 gigabytes at least.

#

Hey
I need help plz :>
When i click at the area where i wanna go, the games brings a loading screen, the loading screen takes forever and when i open the task manager it says that the game is not even responding, Help

worn fossil
#

I need help.

It helps when I start the game to be instantly closed by a Crash.
How can I fix it?

blissful sequoia
#

can try updating video drivers

fluid sable
#

Having done nothing since my previous post, the shard is no longer failing to download. Thanks anyway.

ruby island
#

@worn fossil if you have a amd card their drivers are broken for foxhole between 19.12.2-20.1.1 it just shows a black screen on boot update your drivers if you do

#

@terse flume check disk usage and if its still loading stuff in if it is just wait

light swift
#

im glad foxhole works on the newer amd drivers but the drivers cause problems in other apps now >.>

iron ibex
#

I rolled them back, and then verified foxhole files.

ruby island
#

@light swift try updating to the latest optional rather then the recommended

HI ! Only in foxhole i have an interesting and annoying problem.. after win10 reinstall the game "crashing" my sound card it makes no sound in game and in other apps. ( I am using 7.1 adapter headset, which is 100% not the problem)
Anyone who had this issue, or similar please tag me.

viral pasture
#

Bought a new laptop and cant get the game to launch. Would I receive help here another or hannel? Cant find the answer online, just that I should go to discord

viral pasture
#

Did all the basics: drivers, verify, reinstall, windowed mode, resolution change

viral pasture
#

@community

pallid glen
#

Have you done a proper reinstall? @viral pasture

#

If not, the instructions to do so are pinned in this channel

viral pasture
#

Will double check. Event viewer says it's the shipping.exe

viral pasture
#

Did proper, didnt work

ruby island
#

@viral pasture define "cant get the game to launch"

#

black screen? error? nothing?

viral pasture
#

Exactly. Will launch into black screen then crash

ruby island
#

does it crash with fatal error

viral pasture
#

No, nothing afterward. Just exits

#

Logs only say faulty app shipping.exe event id:1000

#

Tried deleting, verifying, excluding from antivirus, then launching as well. Didnt work

ruby island
#

press win + r and paste C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\ and check if a crashes directory exists

#

event viewer is useless for stuff like this

#

thats more for windows stuff

viral pasture
#

Dont have an appdata folder there. Maybe that's it?

ruby island
#

press the windows button + r and copy and paste that appdata is hidden by default

viral pasture
#

[CrashReportClient]
bHideLogFilesOption=false
bIsAllowedToCloseWithoutSending=true
CrashConfigPurgeDays=2

ruby island
#

so within that crashes directory look for the latest modified folder and send war.log over discord within that folder

viral pasture
ruby island
#

hmmm do you have any sort of bluetooth devices

viral pasture
#

an xbox wireless adapter is all

#

new laptop

ruby island
#

can you disable bluetooth

viral pasture
#

disabled, run as admin, run as normal, still same thing

ruby island
#

hmmm try this

https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases)
Extract the .tar.gz using WinRAR or 7Zip
Copy the dxgi.dll and dx11.dll from the x64 folder.
Go to your Foxhole directory
Paste the files in War/Binaries/Win64
Start the game.```
#

that could be a temp bypass

viral pasture
#

have a d3d11 is that the same

#

dxgi is in the there tho weird

ruby island
#

dxgi.dll and dx11.dll

#

those 2 dlls

viral pasture
#

in the x64 file dx11 doesnt exist. the only dx is dxgi.dll everything else starts with d3

#

maybe i did it wrong?

ruby island
#

ohhhh they renamed it

#

copy d3d11 over

viral pasture
#

gotcha thanks a ton for troubleshooting with me, whether anything works or not

ruby island
#

ya no idea if this will work

viral pasture
#

damn heres what happened

#

copied and pasted, launched by double clicking shipping.exe then the 'missing dx files' populated. staying on the black screen longer but still crashed

#

two text docs and a cache filed populated that is

ruby island
#

why are you launching it directly

viral pasture
#

tried launching through steam, normal, and run as admin but nothing happened

#

so launched directly then that did

ruby island
#

weird i just tried the 2 files just like you and it worked fine

#

check for windows updates

viral pasture
#

did those files populate? did you already have them?

ruby island
viral pasture
#

yeah exactly weird. no im up to date tried that a long while ago and just redid through 'check for updates'

#

firewall and AV turned off too

ruby island
#

well those logs are normal

viral pasture
#

oh ok. i assume the .dll arent always supposed to be there, just makes them easier to find this way

ruby island
#

you can also try updating your graphics driver

#

those are to essentially bypass directx

viral pasture
#

yeah that too did all the normal ones. ive no idea really. im going to do another clean install and the .ddl trick

#

normal 'checks' that is including the driver update

ruby island
#

go to your laptops site and find the support or downloads section

viral pasture
#

alright

ruby island
#

then put in the model of your laptop and put it into there

#

and find the vga or graphics driver

viral pasture
#

updating now

#

or downloading at least. think its same thing tho well see

ruby island
#

whats the driver date

viral pasture
#

11/29

ruby island
#

ya your current driver is 11/6

viral pasture
#

still crash. ill download everything on there just in case?

ruby island
#

did you restart after installing

viral pasture
#

no it didnt ask but good point

#

one sec

#

nope didnt work

ruby island
#

hmm discnnect your wifi and try to open the game

#

someone else had that issue for some reason

viral pasture
#

aaaaaye progress

ruby island
#

delete those 2 files you copied over from dxvk

viral pasture
#

now its just 'failed to download download shard error 1'

#

then when wifi reconnect it crashes

ruby island
#

hmmm weird

viral pasture
#

does get me into the "game" tho. if i exit out of that and lick the play button the same errord pops up, shard 1

ruby island
#

does it crash immediately upon reconnect

viral pasture
#

yeah. no error, same thing just closes

ruby island
#

can you send the crash log of that

viral pasture
ruby island
#

is it possible that you can test lan rather then wifi

viral pasture
#

cant currently, no

#

prob a wifi prob tho?

#

games on the desktop run fine, just the new laptop being fickle

ruby island
#

hmmmm go to discord and disable hardware acceleration

#

go to settings appearance then disable

viral pasture
#

discord? running through browser

ruby island
#

hmmm

viral pasture
#

i guess i am at least proud of the uniqueness of this lol...

ruby island
#

well someone also had the exact same issue i wonder if its more related to hardware

ruby island
#

with something similar to your error

viral pasture
#

just launched Bad North fine, which seems comporable

#

did that at first but will def try again

#

right now, sec

ruby island
#

they say to delete the foxhole in the local folder first uninstall restart and install

viral pasture
#

ah ok yeah noticed that we'll see if it makes a diff

viral pasture
#

nope failed lol

viral pasture
#

is this the type of game where i need to link a profile to the website? or if I bought it on steam im good?

ruby island
#

not sure what you mean

viral pasture
#

some games require a separate profile somewhere, like their website, and then when you launch you login to that profile. linking the two. is that required or just the steam purchase and steam account?

#

last time i played was alpha

ruby island
#

there is no separate login so just steam

viral pasture
#

tried switch dns, no bueno. still dont know whats up so if anyone happens to stumble upon the previous convo and have any ideas, please do let me know. thank you cuz for the large amount of troubleshooting

viral pasture
#

maybe I found the issue: although I have 12gb of possible ram, I dont have dedicated ram. it scales isntead. does this game look purely at dedicated instead of scaling?

ruby island
#

i think what you mean is you dont have dedicated ram to gpu

#

that shouldnt effect it tho

#

but you can check bios depending on how locked down it is and usually change the amount of ram allocated to your igpu

#

but that wouldnt help as its something weird going on with the interaction of the internet

#

as the other person with this issue had the same exact thing on lan

viral pasture
#

gotcha yeah looked in bios, its locked

viral pasture
#

yeah weird downloaded multiple other games and they connect fine. will try again tom

foggy sky
#

Wait what

#

What do you mean ram scales.

#

You have hardware ram that your system uses for the game and itself..you have dedicated GPU Ram that the GPU uses to store information for it to display and load quickly when rendering. And then shared GPU memory which from what i understand is just your systen ram.

#

Windows 10 Task Manager should tell you all that information.

#

In what little ive seen about people saying the game fails to run. Most of the time its been on an Integrated GPU. IE the processor has basic GPU graphics. Sometimes it can handle it sometimes it cant. Usually you only use the iGPU for basic work or extra monitors. Not for running graphics intensive programs like modelling, rendering, and video gaming.

viral pasture
#

yeah, integrated but with an i5 and 12gb ram

ruby island
#

but if you do not have a dedicated gpu the memory for the integrated is shared

viral pasture
#

weird thing is game loads when offline, not when on

foggy sky
#

Aight yeah thats fuck.

viral pasture
#

just gonna call the isp tom

#

and fuck with their end more

foggy sky
#

I dont think its the ISP

ruby island
#

the same issue happened to someone with a mx250

foggy sky
#

I think its spaghetti code in Foxhole.

#

Or Unreal.

ruby island
#

so i dont think its the gpu thats the problem

foggy sky
#

Or maybe the specific version of the Unreal Engine this game is built with.

ruby island
#

i really dont know i cant figure out why it causes the game to crash

#

from the other person lan and wlan both crash the game so its not a specific problem with the network adapter or driver

foggy sky
#

Yeah its probably spaghetti code in Foxhole.

#

To be fair its hard to build for the sheer amount of chip architectures out there. And the jank ass user setups running them. And have 100% no crashes.

#

But this would be a first for me observing. Where lan and wireless crash a game.

#

And usually only on iGPUs

ruby island
#

well its not really the game devs job to build it for all the different hardware setups thats what a lot of the different apis are for so devs dont have to worry about supporting hardware

foggy sky
#

True.

viral pasture
#

figured im going to buy two copies of the game. then tell them both whoever runs first doesnt get uninstalled. put some competition in them. prob do it

foggy sky
#

Wat

ruby island
#

also as i said before this happened the same exact way on a mx250

#

which isnt a igpu

foggy sky
#

Sounds like an old as balls card. Unless thats one of the newer AMDs

ruby island
#

actually fairly new

foggy sky
#

I havent kept up with GPU names. Oh. Interestinf

ruby island
foggy sky
#

Hm. Wonder what makes the laptop different from the desktop.

#

Besides obvious size.

ruby island
#

different motherboard

#

well it has a whole host of different parts

foggy sky
#

Yeah. I was more so meaning the underlaying uh.

#

How do I put it.

viral pasture
#

from the logs it uses a 1/4 of my virtual mem when offline but none when online, doesnt even get to the point of accessing

ruby island
#

i wonder if the laptops are from the same manufacture

viral pasture
#

hp here

foggy sky
#

Fuck i dunno. I know laptops have to have special parts built due tonsmall size and things are usually hard soldered on. But i was curious if the way the chips and such are layered had a difference or something. Causing laptops on this specific engine of Unreal to fail.

ruby island
#

well they do have custom motherboards with different sata controllers and chipsets

#

@pulsar trellis what brand is your laptop?

viral pasture
#

alright furtherest i've gotten: launch in windowed mode and disable fullscreen optimization. that combo gets me to the mini load screen for a couple seconds then crashes

pulsar trellis
#

Hp one

robust thorn
#

Can you make it possible to play Foxhole through GeforceNOW ?

inner basin
#

isnt that mainly up to Nvidia?

robust thorn
#

@inner basin the devs ccould talk to nvidia ?! and ask them to make it possible?!

honest falcon
#

F

#

looks like game crashed

viral pasture
#

so def something with HP for the cant run when connected to wifi issue. weird

ruby island
#

@viral pasture @pulsar trellis can you both open up dxdiag and click save all information then dm me the txt file

#

maybe i can find a similarity between both your laptops causing the issue

viral pasture
#

sent, thanks cuz

mighty wraith
#

how do i fix rubberbanding ?

#

first time in 1k hours i'm having it

ruby island
#

well that would be caused by a slow connection or possibly the server

#

considering its the first time in 1k hours its most likely the server

golden pasture
#

Has any one received the error for not being able to download shard info?

viral pasture
#

Ohhhh yeah boi

golden pasture
#

how do I fix it?

blissful sequoia
#

i think [the rubberbanding] its just funky servers

#

andy, its usually firewall, antivirus, or DNS server that causes the shard error. sometimes its your ISP

viral pasture
#

Unless you have an hp laptop, then you are out of luck

Can you take a look on USB adapter support? the game is shutting down my sound card ..

wet arrow
#

Hey are u able to play foxhole on Vega 11 G card??? with 8gb of ram?

#

bc i get the crash ue4 msg every time i start to boot

ruby island
#

@wet arrow whats your driver version

wet arrow
#

how does one check it ?? because its an integrated gcard

ruby island
#

if its between 19.12.2-20.1.1 then its bugged

#

open up redeon settings

wet arrow
#

oh fuck i dont have catalyst installed reeee

#

i'll do that in a bit and check

ruby island
#

its not named catalyst anymore

terse flume
#

anyone playing foxhole in windows 7? looked at the spec it says compatible

ruby island
#

yes the game will run on windows 7

wet arrow
#

So I downgraded drivers to 19.11.3 and it's still crashing

wet arrow
#

nvm got it working

#

had to minimize the screen so foxhole would load and change the grapchis from ultra

I have had this happen before, it could be, if you have a wireless mouse, it is low on batteries.
Or you need to clean your mouse.
Also, you might have an actual faulty mouse, where the problems don't show until you hold click it. Make sure hold click isn't broken.

Believe it or not after some digging with my local pc shop my graphics card is overheating xD but only showed with a more in depth component checker

blissful sequoia
#

was going to ask you that. but then i didnt.

#

i feel like im paranoid about gpu heat

#

i suppose a simple test would be to run some load test and watch it crash there too

#

usually a fan replacement is inexpensive

ruby island
#

hold on did i just see power supply drivers?

#

i am sorry to say but a power supply has all the logic inside of it to handle all it needs it has no need to even communicate to the pc meaning no drivers

#

the only thing i can see is for some rgb

#

thats about it

#

but even then it should just come with a rgb header that plugs into your motherboard meaning you would just need rgb software for your motherboard

#

the only drivers you will ever need are your motherboards drivers, potentially chipset if you have problems and your gpu drivers

#

and if you have any external devices connected to pcie

#

thats very rare these says tho

Does anyone have connectivity issues to Foxhole? When I'm in a region it's fine usually fine but when I border travel 9 out of 10 times I will get disconnected and sent back to the home region.

#

I only have issues with Foxhole, other wise my internet is fine

terse flume
#

I'm pretty sure that foxhole bricked my computer

#

it was a kernel error, so probably not, but I was playing foxhole at the time

#

I have the theory that my computer was so done with my shitty skills so it killed itself

#

@bleak fog
I getthat thx

#

@formal lance
你是傻 的屌吗?

formal lance
#

?

ruby island
#

@terse flume it is virtually impossible to brick a computer

#

as long as you can get into the bios you are not bricked

#

also i have gotten one kernel error from a game before relating to some security check or something

terse flume
#

If I try hard enough I could likely repair it, but I’m not technical nor do I really want to pay someone to repair it

ruby island
#

so what exactly do you mean does windows not load

blissful sequoia
#

its not that difficult to burn out a laptop gpu

ruby island
#

depending if its a igpu

#

if its a dedicated maybe but igpus are more quality controlled

narrow iron
#

Where i found @ruby island

ruby island
#

?

narrow iron
#

I already

#

Put

ruby island
#

ok so in game on the main menu in the top right what does it say

narrow iron
#

Pera aí

ruby island
#

this

#

make sure that says live

narrow iron
#

Ya

ruby island
#

i recommend 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 but googles is fine

#

also make sure you select the correct adaptor and once you are dont run ipconfig /flushdns in a command prompt

blissful sequoia
#

yea you are right thecuz1, integrated gpu dont burn out

#

but they have better cooling i think

ruby island
#

well since its a igpu its on the same chip as the cpu so likely if you burned out a igpu then you probably would have done the same to the cpu

#

and i trust intels quality control over the laptops manufactures

#

every laptop i have owned has had a issue

#

both asus and acer

blissful sequoia
#

agreed

ruby island
#

i had a acer laptop that had to be replaced 7 times

#

on warranty

#

as well as a asus laptop that from what i could tell the motherboard is fucked and does not tell the fan to turn on so i had to pull the pwn wire to make it run at 100% all the time

#

as well as a few other issues with it

#

and i cant confirm this but looks like something that hp does with their laptops causes problems with foxhole

#

not enough accounts to pin it on hp but looks like it is

#

so i dont trust laptop manufactures

blissful sequoia
#

kinda dig fujitsu, actually

#

but typical laptop problems you cant get away from with that kind of compact nature

ruby island
#

i think its just the sheer lack of quality control with them

blissful sequoia
#

they bang out like 50 models a year

ruby island
#

as how tf do you not notice the fucking cpu fan not working

#

like thats a problem that should have been noticed instantly

#

hell i would rather walmarts brand laptop over asus hp or acer

rough stratus
#

Won't let me log in after using DevBranch switched to correct Foxhole version and even after a reinstall does not work What am I missing?

ruby island
#

restart steam?

rough stratus
#

Yep that did it

#

thanks

ruby island
#

yeet

narrow iron
#

@ruby island dont work

ruby island
#

to confirm that you have changed the correct adaptor open up command prompt and type nslookup google.com it should say just below the command the server address you changed it to

wind minnow
#

Hello, my game is crashing after like 10 minutes idk why, i still continue to hear people talk but i cant do anything and have to restart

#

( i am on ubuntu 19.10, the game work and do the same thing with and without proton )

ruby island
#

@wind minnow what gpu do you have

#

if its nvidia make sure you have download the drivers from the repos rather then the site as nvidias installer can break things

#

if you have already used the .run script from nvidias site then unfortunately you will probably need to reinstall to fully clear up what the script did

harsh bane
#

how can i solve this problem? i restarted game more than 10 times

ruby island
#

@harsh bane still have the issue?

harsh bane
#

yup

ruby island
#

its a server issue everyone has it

harsh bane
#

but my friend who played with me used vc very well

ruby island
#

options > voice > reconnect most likely will work for a few minutes then stop

#

had that issue before

harsh bane
#

i did that but not worked :/

#

i even tried delete n download

ruby island
#

its probably effecting some people but not others

harsh bane
#

yeah....

wind minnow
#

thanks i will try all of these @ruby island

#

in the top left corner there is just code text and stuff

#

idk what this mean tho

#

oooo nvm this has to do with Discord nvm

#

I don't know if I should post here or in bug report, so I apologise if I get it wrong. The thing is that when playing on my laptop after 5-10 minutes in game I stop getting any sound whatsoever and I don't know the reason why, since I don't get this problem with my desktop. Any ideas on why is this happening?

hallow thunder
#

Voice chat keeps dying and the only way to fix it is reboot the whole game. I was told to come here

#

Oh and the reconnect button never fixes it

harsh bane
#

yup

#

n reboot couldnt solve this problem

WTF?

#

you should probably install the nvidia physics driver

#

youre probably using the CPU instead of the GPU for physics

#

yo try not to reveal intel in your screen shots

dull vigil
#

I have nVidia why has this come up this time

blissful sequoia
#

reinstall your drivers

#

its one of the options to install physx

ruby island
#

does foxhole even use physx

blissful sequoia
#

UE probably uses it exclusively

#

evidently according to his screen it does

ruby island
#

just because it says that doesnt mean it uses it

#

could just be a driver overlay thing

#

also just set it to gpu in the driver settings @dull vigil

blissful sequoia
#

i assume he just doesnt have physx installed, its a separate component to the video driver

ruby island
#

well foxhole doesnt use it as i just uninstalled physx from my system and started the game and steam didnt reinstall it

blissful sequoia
#

interesting
good test

ruby island
#

games that require it will install it on launch

#

because i have a amd gpu and never installed it so it was there from a game

blissful sequoia
#

errr ... isnt it an nvidia thing?

#

so it wasnt being used for you anyway

ruby island
#

yes but if physics stuff is done with nvidias physx that the only way you can actually play that game it becomes a dependency its just a nvidia technology so only their gpus can actually run the code so it resorts to software or cpu based rendering for a non nvidia gpu

blissful sequoia
#

maybe its just done on CPU for amd cards that are older

#

but it wouldnt warn you because you have no other option

ruby island
#

any gpu that doesnt support physx

blissful sequoia
#

but his card does support phys-x

ruby island
#

it switches to software

blissful sequoia
#

maybe thats why he sees it

ruby island
#

if the driver is set to auto within nvidias software and the gpu is at 100% it will resort to software to take some load off the gpu

blissful sequoia
#

🤔

ruby island
#

but it doesnt matter in foxhole as i removed the driver completely and started foxhole fine

#

so my computer is not capable of even running the code

#

meaning that foxhole doesnt use physx

blissful sequoia
#

i can only imagine UE4 uses phys-x when available

ruby island
#

or maybe not

#

ya looks like it up do the devs to use physx

#

ue4 doesnt use it by default

#

i dont think foxhole out of all games foxhole needs physx

#

what even physics would you need to render

#

that would be pretty cool if it did tho

#

also looks like games that use physx dont even support gpu rendering anymore as the software rendering is so good

blissful sequoia
#

oh. ok

ruby island
#

well idk why it didnt install the driver maybe the driver is just for gpu rendering

#

ya looking into the files for foxhole actually shows that all physx needs is vs2015 meaning they are on software rendering

blissful sequoia
#

vs2015? visual studio?

ruby island
#

yup looks like the cpu variant of physx just requires visual studio 2015

blissful sequoia
#

to program it?

ruby island
#

well ya to tap into the engine you require vs2015 and these dlls

wind minnow
#

Anyone is playing foxhole on linux ?

ruby island
#

are you having issues getting it running?

#

it works if set up correctly

wind minnow
#

yes it run, but after some minutes of playing at 60 fps my get totaly freez

#

i tried what you told me before but none worked

ruby island
#

do you have a nvidia gpu?

wind minnow
#

yes, and i reinstalled them to be sure too

#

i think i tried literaly everything

ruby island
#

but have you run the .run script from nvidias site?

wind minnow
#

no i installed it with ppa

ruby island
#

so you havent ran that at all

wind minnow
#

no

blissful sequoia
#

i had to get the drivers from nvidia directly to play on linux

#

but i was on 18.10.02 ubuntu, i think, with a 750ti

#

couldnt find anything compatible in the PPAs

wind minnow
#

ah shit

blissful sequoia
#

but mine crashed right away, i couldnt even get 10 minutes out of it before getting the driver right

wind minnow
#

i am on ubuntu 19.10 ( kubuntu de ) with a titan black from 700 series
