I've even uninstalled game, but lemme try that rq
Still didn't work, I can't think of what it is
I'm able to connect to the voice servers, it says I've connected to the Squad Voice when i join
but when their speakers light up, I hear nothing
Can you make sure your output devices in the Voice tab are "system default" and that system default are the correct devices
Let me see what my system's default are
Only got one output device, my headphones
wack
Honestly if I can't find a fix by Monday I'll just delete steam altogether and try reinstalling it from step one, cuz I can't think of any reason I can hear everything but voices
@random tree assuming you have your mic set as default and as default communication device that error most likely means your mic is not reconized can you send your log file named war.log localed in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\Logs
Nah it's not that I can't talk, I don't even have a proper mic
It's that I can't hear any voices
did you fix the vivox files
I looked at the tutorial that's pinned yeah
this thing?
yes
hmm dont see anything unusual
you did mention you reinstalled the game did that include deleting C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole
as steam does not automaically delete that folder
Hey guys, my game wont start at all (no error) like many others here, Im running on an Nvidia car tho and i have attempted to verify my cache, reinstall and add it as an exception to my firewall numerous times, nothing is helping, Plz @ me when you reply 🙂 thx
@hot oak any advice?
@frank smelthave you read the pins
Particularly the first problem described in the first pinned message by me
@terse flume does it give you an error message when you try to type?
no the message just disappears
as soon as i press enter nothin shows
local chat works which confuses me
what the
whispering works too
DM me your steam ID and I can check if they're reaching the server
Because there's a couple bugs this could relate to
sent it
All of the messages where you said test are showing up
Are other people able to see them?
Hmm
unless the other chats are not showing at all
Try restarting the game and steam
It's locking me onto the whisper tab and won't let me switch
wtf
I attempted to relaunch foxhole and got a BSOD...?
started up Civ 6 and it works
That error message means some file somewhere is likely corrupted
Most likely a driver file (probably the foxhole related one)
My recommendation is that you use the System File Checker to ensure the integrity of drivers and related system files
You can do this by opening the administrator command prompt (Search command prompt in search bar and select run as administrator), then type sfc/scannow into the command prompt and hit enter
It will then take a while and verify all system related files, and if any are problematic will attempt to fix them
Looking at the log and it fixed something that was wrong with the GPU drivers, so I guess that somehow killed the game?
My mouse is stuck in the top right hand corner, but only in foxhole
A little help?
It literally won't start when I try starting it up through steam, and when I try to start it up in the files itself, it gives me this Error, I've got AMD, I tried updating, rolled back, and it still won't cooperate.
I just restart Foxhole, try again, uninstall, reinstall, try again, repeat
May or may not work
didnt work
you deleted folder that is in appdata?
if its a proble mwith runtime have you considered getting the latest C++ Runtimes?
@plush crest follow the top pinned message in this channel
People need to pay more attention to pinned messages
Guys, after a while after connecting to the game, the image freezes and I can't do anything. Help!
Click on the screen
np
when i launch my game I get something that says missing game shard info
i was literally playing yesterday and now it just wont work
My local and squad text chat have been broken for a long time
No one can read anything I type in local or squad, but I can speak in local and squad and hear local and squad and read what other people type
I just cant type in local or squad, and it is unbelievably frustrating
No one can read anything I type in local or squad, but I can speak in local and squad and hear local and squad and read what other people type
@idle wagon
text chat and voice chat are different services
I just cant type in local or squad, and it is unbelievably frustrating
@idle wagon
hmm, sounds like it may be issue with windows firewall or stuff
Testing now
When I run the game it gives me Voice chat error [6] 3-5025 yet my VC works just fine
but text still doesnt work
@idle wagon tried checkin pinned instructions?
Nothing about issues with text on there
Cant find anything related
Just bought the game, had to re installed game 3 times, drivers up to date, have Nvidia card. Game just doesn't boot up, no errors or black screens. Tried everything in the Read first section. Any ideas other than a refund?
Nope, nada
Could you go to the Foxhole folder in your Steamapps folder and try to run the game through War.exe
installing x64 Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 right now to check, otherwise, im out of ideas
Looks like that was it!
Bought the game recently, worked perfectly when I first launched it, every single other time I've launched the launch load has gotten exponentially longer. Reinstalls, verification of the game cache and most of the applicable tricks suggested have done nothing. Can't even play it anymore, I get stuck on this screen. Do you have any solution? Loving this game so far and I'd be a shame to not be able to play it.
@drowsy turtle I know its a dumb question but have you clicked on that screen, because normally thats what you have to do in order to advance in the menu
yes, multiple times, I even let it run for an hour and it did nothing
wait, I got the dumbest idea ever
let me replug my mouse
I will not pretend to remotely understand why that works, but it does, let me close the game and see if I need to replug my mouse every time is all I need to do
it does, what the hell. I guess the game just doesn't recognize my mouse until i plug it back in? I'm going to reinstall my mouse driver and see if that changes anything
maybe your mouse is borked
alright yeah that works, that's the dumbest problem and solution i've ever arrived at to fix what I thought was a hung game. I thought it had froze but it just didn't realize I had a mouse for some god's forsaken reason. Thank you @haughty aurora
Hey @here people, anyone get this one? failed to download profile[1] after clicking Play
try restarting steam
OK, will give it a shot
I deleted firewall rules and had Foxhole recreate them, some suggested trying that. Also opened port 443 inbound, no luck
no you dont need to open any inbound ports for foxhole
also likely your isp blocks that incoming port anyway
Hmm, they might. Some suggested using a VPN for this, seems to be a strange network error.
Most of the time if I run it clean, it doesn't have the issue. 100% of the time when I try to run with G-Hotkey it has the issue. Which is strange, doesn't seem net related. And I've been able to use G-Hotkey with it forever
I know the obvious answer is "well, don't run it with G-Hotkey" ... but I actually can't play anything but front lines without a hotkey program due to a wrist injury
I have same problem.
@blissful sequoia hi derp i have failed to download profile and have restarted steam what else should I try besides restart router
err ... weird. did you change something?
No, but last time i played foxhole was a week ago.
can use a VPN to test the network but its no fun to play through a VPN
i mean that profile problem is a problem of connecting to steam servers
it is tuesday, and thats steam maintenance day so this happens a lot on tuesday
but it can be a network problem specific to you, also
thats why people recommend modifying firewall and stuff, theyre maybe on the right page but the wrong chapter
its all outgoing connections, nothing incoming
I re re started steam and that still dosen't work.
@pallid gull what if you start g-hotkey after foxhole is connected?
restart the whole machine xanxth, and if that doesnt work try the router maybe
Unfortunately G-Hotkey has to link to the EXE
I might have to try a different hotkey program... not sure I can be bothered. The game should have toggles to prevent injury...
foxholegame.com/feedback failed to download profile
Foxhole doesn't have any outgoing rules ... should it?
nah
it fits in the existing firewall rules
most firewalls allow all outgoing connections
@blissful sequoia ITS Supposed to be foxhole night QQQ and there getting on foxhole with out me
you could uhh install tunnelbear
im going to cry
and use a vpn tonight
theyll give you like 500mb or something free, its more than enough for foxhole and voice chat
they have a free plan?
probably wont add much latency
Wait what if i tried changing my DNS servers on my adapter from defualt to google do you think that would help xD
oh its possible
its worth a try
that is usually not the cause of the profile error, but its possible
Just tried a VPN, wasn't able to fix it with that
My workaround is going to be to play without G-Hotkey and use a controller. Doesn't work too well for you though, Xanxth. I did have the issue without my hotkey program at first, too, so you're not the only one
just get a different hotkey program, ask around in the discussion room im sure there are suggestions
oh, i mean unless it works fine
this game is unplayable with a controller (except maybe steam controller)
I used to drive with a controller. I'm planning on using it just for building/mining
I've tried other hotkey programs but no others could do the job that this did
i use jitbit macro recorder and that comes with some hotkey macro thing........ its a pain in the butt kinda sorta but i made a macro to right click pull things AND hold down W
@pallid gull do you just need it to hold down your mouse for you? check Windows Mouse Keys
Ahhh, good point, that might work well, Xanxth, thanks. Controller's working OK for now too
steam controller is pretty good for this game tho, with some slight tweaks to the game it would be pretty excellent
more fun than mouse actually
wonder how game is on nintendo pro controller
I tried an Xbox controller for a little bit because I was tired of clicking
It's good for logi and mining
I really want to buy a small electrical engine and tape a paddle to it and use it for harvesting and building
Quick question, tried to change my keybinding to azerty and there is no way to change the « move left »
It just does not show
pls help im getting voice chat error [6] 3-5025 and i cant here anybodys voicechat. I can here the normal game audio and my mic still works i believe but i cant not here anybody else talk
ive have been able to hear other peoples voice chat until now
fixed it by switching from main speakers to headphones

Ok Foxhole over Proton 5.0-9 and 4.11-13 works but sound doesnt work at all. Anyone had the same issue? Mic works for some reason
ok voicechat works for some reason rn
I have a problem with running the game. First i had a problem with Microsoft Visual C++ but i reinstalled and it worked. Now i have a problem with game crashing on startup without errors. So i installed older version of graphics drivers, that didnt work. Somebody knows how to repair it?
The game keeps breaking my discord sound. After a minute or two discord voice sound stops working. I have to go into my output device in settings and re-apply my device. VOIP ingame is also very choppy.
@red oriole can you send the latest war.log from the latest folder located in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\Crashes
uh i just got the game but can anyone help me with the ungame audio
everyones audio keeps cutting out when they speak
@candid dagger saw your issue in #bug-reports, if your game is not starting with those symptoms it's likely an error with VCRUNTIME. The top pin in this channel explains how to fix this.
Does foxhole work on linux?
as of 2 months ago it was working fine https://www.protondb.com/app/505460
probably still works fine with minor issues like the one above
the new steam network sockets broke foxhole on linux
glad they were removed
@terse flume can you install proton tricks by running sudo apt install flatpak flatpak install flathub com.valvesoftware.Steam.Utility.protontricks
and run protontricks-flat -s foxhole to get the app id of foxhole then run protontricks-flat <APPID> xact
make sure you have wine tricks installed first
e
that fixes foxhole in proton?
not necessarily but that command is known to fix lots of sound issues in wine
This is not about foxhole but
This is not about foxhole but I don't have an #updates tab. Anyone know?
I'm guessing it has something to do with the "No Feedback" role you possess
@languid flint I'll look into this for you 👌
Just to cover our bases here, did you try scrolling up? 
I'm guessing it has something to do with the "No Feedback" role you possess
@upbeat wadi I can see it just fine and I have that
@languid flint This seems like a discord being weird thing, as you should be able to see it. Try to refresh discord in any way you can, mobile breaks like this every once and a while
Because Maybar chose a shitty color
It's fixed. I just need to update the app. Thanks for helping!
I have a problem, when I travel to another region the game tell me that is a connection error and if I want to rejoin I must restart the game
@dire ruin
went on steam to verify em and stilll didnt work
(even deleted the game and redownloaded
Alright, try restarting steam and I'll tag the support guy
@brazen shard ^ can't retrieve profile
nvm fixed somehow (idk how)
Well whatever works lol
I am trying to load into my profile page before I press "deploy" but it says profile cannot be downloaded
I was literally about to ask the same thing, I noticed there's a pinned message about it but I've tried everything listed there on two different days and I'm still getting the same error
it just worked for me all i did was download the new steam update
I'm actually getting the "failed to download profile" error when pressing play on the menu
@clever escarp restart steam and make sure no other games are running when you start the game
Okay
Yeah, it gives me the same error. My internet speed is good enough, I think.
Nope
Did you restart steam fully by killing it with Task Manager and reopening it?
I am using a Wifi mesh tho
Yeah I did that, fully made sure it was dead from the processes
Try restarting your wifi, or connecting through ethernet if possible
I can try restarting the wifi, an ethernet connection is not possible to test unfortunately
Laptop doesn't have a port
Didn't work unfortunately
I have played the game before about a year ago. And no, I don't have an AMD. I have a surface laptop
What's a surface laptop have to do with it
Sorry edit ^
Ah
Okay I was confused for a second
Could you verifiy your foxhole install?
And if that doesn't work reinstall it?
Will do
Sorry, I was wrong earlier. This is my computer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_Book_2
The Intel Core i7-8650U (1.9 to 4.2 GHz) - Intel UHD Graphics 620 + NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050
Still failed after the reinstall
@clever escarp can you send war.log located in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\Logs
It doesn't seem I have that folder
huh
Have you started the game after reinstalling
is it hidden
shouldn't be
steam wouldnt have touched it
Doesn't look like it is hidden. And yeah, I've started the game since re-install
strange as that folder should be generated
Are you admin on the PC
I'm the only user yeah
doesnt have anything to do with it
the user has full rights to the appdata folder
its located within the users folder
Yeah, was thinking about install permissions
still shouldnt have anything to do with it
It's foxhole
can you restart your pc then run the game and see if that folder is generated
well idk then
you can probably safely assume whatever is the root cause of that folder not being generated is what is causing your download profile issue
maybe dm phil
Alright, might try that tomorrow. Thanks for tryin fellas
lolwut the new war hasnt event started
can't switch after war end
only on war start
@woeful oyster if u are asking to switch side don't ask in this channel but in #344873396850655235 by submiting a pm to the @coarse trail
does this game support gsync?
games themselves have no need/do not support gsync that is to do with your driver, card and monitor @covert mist
whack.
i get screen tearing with gsync in foxhole
idk why
some games ill have screen tearing others i wont
is gsync enabled in your settings
I get screen tearing as well and Vsync was not selectable in settings, so I had to enable it from Nvidia Control Panel
there is a issue with vsync in windowed mode but shouldnt affect gsync
vsync ... in windowed mode?
yes foxhole refuses to enable vsync in windowed mode
it works if you go fullscreen turn it on then go back to windowed mods but only until you tab out then it gets shut off
super annoying
Vsync normally doesn't work in Windowed mode of anything
Windows fullscreen maybe, but normally it's restricted to Fullscreen
when i said windowed i meant windowed fullscreen
also vsync works perfectly fine in windowed mode
tried it on some games
with vsync off i get 120+ fps and when turned on it hovers up and down around 60
meaning vsync is working
vsync doesnt work in anything except full screen in any game, does it?
anything windowed loses control of vsync i thought
yeah that's what I thought as well
just did it in tower untie
and gave been using vsync for years in fullscreen borderless
even foxhole before the update that fixed the fov exploit worked fine with vsync in fullscreen windowed mode
huh weird having obs open and set to display capture seems like it forces vsync
yup when i close obs and tab into foxhole there is screen tear when i open obs and tab in there is screen tear for a few seconds then the game freezes for a sec then magic no screen tearing
now i dont have to do that stupid trick every time
i mean ... i think it was an option but i dont think it actually worked before
i didnt think it was possible in any windowed mode
kind of shocked to find this out
i suspect it might work with gsync or freesync but not traditional vsync
wish i could demonstrate it but obs forces vsync
for some reason
and it doesnt show up on redon recording or other modes for obs
Failed to download profile? Anyone get this error when pressing play before?
tons of people - its usually fixed by restarting steam
Just as info for me....for what vSync when the game is locked at 60fps?
never had less than 58fps on my rig
just because a game is locked at 60 fps doesnt mean screen tearing doesnt exist
like i know my monitor jumps between 62-58 hz meaning that a stable 60 fps will cause tearing
my monitor being older probably has something to do with it
vsync syncs up your fps to the hz essentially
I get screen tearing now when I didn't before, but I like to alt-tab frequently so I haven't enabled VSync :/
It's alright as long as I'm not going too fast
if i turn the camera angle slightly it tears so bad
Moderate this game!
is there any chance the game will be available for mac?
Don't think they have any plans at this point
i am not very technical so i dont really understand- why would that be difficult
MacOS & Windows operate completely differently
There's massive differences in how they run programs and how they operate behind the scenes, and it's a ton of work to get them working together in the same servers,
oh, thanks!
other UE games run on mac...
Doesn't mean Foxhole can.
well thats because the devs of those games have put in the work to support osx
Or maybe their games don't rely on things that aren't usable on MacOS
my chat doesn't work anymore, when I enter messages they don't appear
am I chat banned or is this a technical thing?
did you accidentally switch it to the logi tab, perhaps?
nope... I tried every tab
I actually have this problem for a few months now, and it's getting quite irritating so I would like a fix if there is any
oooh
@serene field its because you dont have english enabled, click the cog for the settings on the chat window
I'm sorry I don't speak English very well. You can tell the address of the game servers to check the ping.
sorry but i cant speak eanglish very well. i have a problem. yesterday around 00:00-03:00 i could use voice chat normally, but not today. i have no idea why this is heppening. please help.
@static spruce Esc -> Options -> Voice -> Reconnect
thank u. now all its ok.
I'm sorry I don't speak English very well. You can tell the address of the game servers to check the ping?
in the Game User Settings.ini file, I put the FPS limit of 100 in the Frame Rate Limit=100.000000 line, but after entering the game, the value becomes 60 . what is the reason?
its been changed and doesnt work anymore
Hi! so ah i have a problem, my game work fine ant then game just froze
there is Error. sorry for format
im gonna update my software on graphic card
i get the crash on startup without error message just like in the thechnical-read-first guide but i downloaded the correct amd drivers and reinstalled two times and checked file integrity but im still unable to play the game. anyone got any ideas on what can i do now?
i have also followed the "fixing the resolution settings" instruction to no avail
Hi, I’m having trouble with audio. I either hear only the voice chat or in-game sounds, or I hear nothing at all. I’m using a pair of bluetooth earbuds with a microphone. Im pretty sure it’s something to do with the input and output devices I have set, but I have no idea what I’m doing.
@steel kiln are the input / output devices you've set the system default
They are, but I can’t hear voice chat now
Could you go to the Voice page of settings and "reconnect" as well as make sure those are system default devices as well?
Tried that. Not doing anything
And now the in-game sound’s gone too
When i reconnect the in-game sound comes back for like a second then mutes again
Do you have another audio device you could test with?
No 😦 I mean it works fine on my computer’s speaker but i dont have any other headphones
Hmm, I'm thinking it might be some weirdness with the headphones
Damn it. Yeah, they’re a cheap pair i bought at walmart, Sony WI-C200
Mhm
I’ve been fiddling with the device settings for days now trying to figure this out. It worked once for a bit but then went back. Everywhere I look it’s the same thing, change the input and output, but like what the hell do i change it to
There may be a way to force this but it's a bit weird
But I’ve never had a problem with them on my phone so idk if its really the earbuds
It's not the earbuds themselves
It's the computer being weird about sending them the proper information
Have you ever heard of a program called "Voicemeeter"
I have not. I’ll try anything, tech issues put me in an extremely bad mood
heh
VoiceMeeter Virtual Audio Device Mixer by V.Burel
If you download and install that I can walk you through setting it up, it should solve this.
Effectively you can use it to force the audio to go where you want it, instead of being weird
Installed, just need to restart my pc
Yup
Ight what’s the next step?
So make sure that voicemeeter is the system default for both input and output devices
Then set the hardware input to your microphone, and hardware output to your earbuds
Ok that has the mic working
There are 11 different output options and none of them work
Most of them kill my mic when I switch to them for whatever reason
Ok so when I use that setting the audio works and my pc’s mic seems to be working fine. I guess it’s when I try to use the earbuds’ mic that it stops working
My guess is that the earbuds are sending everything in the same channel, and the computer is having issues trying to process that
Well i think I’ll have to work with this for now, doesn’t seem to be anything I can do about that. None of the other options work. Thanks for your help. 😊😊

hello , i intall via steam foxhole and it dont work, try re-intall idem, it dont lauch ,not from desktop icon, not from steam, not with avast shield off. update is and automatic on steam, is e-mail support no responce ,can someone help me ?
@grand echo have you read and followed the pins in this channel
i read now, i ll try Icanari :How to Correctly Reinstall Foxhole thanks
i mean i was more talking about this pin https://discordapp.com/channels/203512636556574720/374272127953666048/713199625388949554
Game Opens and Closes With No Error sounds a lot like your issue
is your gpu overheating
or have you overclocked it
if both those dont apply then make sure both windows and your driver is up to date
Try verifying the integrity of game files.
yes it lauching thanks thecruz1 ,very thanks 🙂
hi guys, anyone else is having this problem?
@upbeat crown restart steam
@terse flume thanks! It worked 😄
the game isnt allowing to to submit bmats into our squad storage
theres nothing but the Bmats
but it just says that one or more items cant be stored
@elder oracle
any idea
you can only store crates of stuff you (or your squad) made
u need to retrieve bmats in crates from refinery to be able to store them in squad storage
@frank zealot is it possible to reset a players friendly fire restriction severity? I still get weapon restricted after emptying half a clip of smg on a foxhole 2 days after I killed a bunch of foxholes to clean up
@fluid iris Yup, modmail it though
Why is FPS permanently locked to 60? Even editing the config doesn't change it.
doesn't the config get reset all the time
think of it as a stopgap measure the devs did to stop people from having fun
Or a stop gap to prevent people from gaining an unfair advantage...
i mean if they built the game properly then fps shouldnt be a factor
it was potentially an accident too
Is there a way to fix the "failed to load shard info" error?
I can not select shard or have the option to
@sage mantle what do you see in the top right corner of the main menu
You don't see this?
You should also see this on your betas tab from right click > properties in Steam:
thats only the case when the game doesnt have a connextion to the internet
do you have any sort of anti virus blocking connection
No ive disabled that
can you change your dns servers as described here https://discordapp.com/channels/203512636556574720/551236268004999168/551238446379696130
can you send war.log located in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\Logs
hmmmm
can you try using a vpn
use something like tunnel bear or protonvpn to test
both offer free usage
if the issue happens after that then its something on your pc blocking the connection
or it could be related to the previous issue i have seen
Which issue would that be?
there is a issue i have been tracking for months now that crashes the game when the game tries to connect to the internet now this isnt crashing but the crashing could have been fixed with a update as a result the game refuses to connect to the internet as a workaround to the crashing
thats just speculation tho
if the vpn doesnt work and you are sure nothing is blocking the connection i would recommend dming phil on discord with your log and a dxdiag report
still not working
ok then maybe my speculation is correct
type dxdiag into windows search and open it
then click save all information
then dm phil with both war.log and that text file generated
and explain the issue
I keep getting runtime errors from the game how do I fix this?
can you install the latest vcruntime as described in the latest pinned message
foxhole ping is so high during this war...
ok what the fuck
all of my chats arent working
no one can read anything i put in local, squad, region, world
what the fuck is wrong with this game
but why would it work some of the time
my chat language was in chinese so that would be it then
how tf did it change tho
interesting
because other people are writing english in the chinese text (sometimes)
they probably wonder why nobody else is talking lol
spread the word there if you feel like it
Whenever I enter the home region after selecting a side, it throws up an error saying "Warconnection service failed". The deployment map doesn't load up either. Any possible fixes?
possibly your firewall or antivirus
A weird one I even did an sfc /scannow and downloaded a fresh copy of FH but today when I try to aim I suddenly get my avatar and aim line jolting side to side ( a bit tourettes like 😋 ) and I can't aim at all. This has only happened from today. Any ideas what it is and how I can remedy the issue???
Anyone on the above issue please?
could you upload a video potentially? @dull vigil
anyone here know how bunkerbases work. specifically in regards to infrastructure
@lunar iron I think it's better if you ask in #foxhole-discussion where it's more active 😄
What's the at most minimum requirements to run Foxhole?
Make sure you have a dedicated gpu
If you don't the game doesn't really support it well anymore especially with the recent update to unreal engine 4
@terse flume
Thanks
I'd your computer is potato you will likely be stuck playing on low graphics
And for better performance having to lower the resolution scaling
You can always try and see how your system runs it
Then if it doesn't work you can refund the game on steam if you have less than 2 hour play time
That's right, I guess
I can't tab out of foxhole anymore or I crash.

i hate that my body gets vaporized whenever i DC
Talked to @inner basin about the issue
the only error message i get is when trying to relog after 5-10 seconds that is some kind of "failure to download profile..." or something similar
wondering why the game system does not have an automatic "sleep" function for 120 seconds when disconnecting.
is this due to some other fix?
"How it feels to DC in Foxhole."
put that in #foxhole-creative lmao
roger, will do
it used to.
anyone know if there are plans to add ultra/super wide support at all in the future?
Anyone have any experience with Foxhole disabling all output to a Bluetooth headset
Its whenever my Vivox chat initializes it cuts all of my system audio
I've already done the fix in #technical-read-firstâš
Whenever I press "reconnect" my audio turns back on
Is Exclusive Mode/Priority set on the headset? In communications properties.
Untick the top one see what happens
@formal lance yes I have.
foxhole is downright awful with bluetooth
they really need to address their audio and voice problems, but its been years, good luck
I resolved it
Instead of choosing the audio device that I was using on the Vivox screen, I set it to system default (which was the same device I had manually selected) and that fixed it.
Game crashed earlier after I died to a halftrack and I got some sort of pop up from Unreal Engine indicating corrupt files which led to the need to fully reinstall the game
Don't die to halftracks then 
Just going to say you shouldn't get weapon restriction from destroying vehicles on home island

o7
Hmm, I do not understand.. anyone care to help? please.
weird glitch where voice chat breaks up a lot
started a couple updates ago, i think trench warfare? or later
both local and squad chat
@tired tangle reconnect your voice chat in the voice settings, if that doesn’t work; restart the game
both dont work, trust me it's been around for a while
also tried changing output devices doesnt work either
Possibly try logging out of your account?
is there a way to make the ui bigger?
Don't believe there's a scaling option, no
tried a reinstall and wiped all local doesnt work

how to fix?
theres been server lagging this past few days in game
despite having good or bad internet
Frontline maps chug when populated especially late war with more stuff built
If you're fine in a backline hex it's just the servers acting up in the laggy region and not your ping
maybe this is what happens when we arent spread into 23 maps 
i think we would reduce the server load if we all social distanced
I have had constant Rubber-banding which makes the game literally unplayable, any tips/troubleshoots? I've turned my computer on and off again, done steam updates, turned the WIFI on and off again, and I've even updated windows. It happens everywhere, front or not, even on the Home region. Please help!
Turn down graphics
i've been lagging in vehicles
Did that already
but ill try it again
Still rubberbanding
getting this message when trying to play
I actually didn't feel any lag what so ever playing yesterday on the most populated region
Probably what's happening is as the server becomes more and more loaded people's internet connection quality becomes more of a factor
i have gigabit ethernet lol
distance to where foxhole hosts the servers is also a huge factor
servers are hosted in canada right?
well the domain for the api resolves to Virginia
i would have to pull up wireshark to grab the ip of the actual servers and see where they resolve to but most likely to Virginia as thats where the api is served
ahhh they use OVH hosting
that would be located in montreal
the api is served by aws
i live in east coast US issues started last week when a luv basically flew 60 meters into a lake
lol
idk then why you would be lagging must just be server lag then
i got onto a region with 14 queued players yesterday and no issues where the front was
you also got to take in consideration of connection type
if you have fiber then it would have been server lag but if you have cable it could have been due to high demand of internet in your area slowing down response time
a lot of people are lagging
i have fiber so it's not me
but i'm not the only one with issues
idk man i had no lag what so ever
could have just been a slowdown at the time you played while none at the time i played
This makes three days of lag and rubberbanding for me.
Currently when pressing play, it displays a message "Failed to download profile[1]." All I have done as of now is Validate my game files.
@novel hamlet restart steam
yeet
@wheat latch can u check your message box pls?
@little stump What do you need? Messaging devs should be a last resort.
uh you’re giving them money they should at least bother responding
max responds, you just better hope its a new problem and not an old one thats been decided not to be fixed
Getting this message. I have closed steam, restarted internet and redownload and still not working anyone help??
possibly change your DNS server
if that doesnt work then its your router or your antivirus
i suppose it could be your ISP
I keep trying to deploy in the devbranch but it says "lost connection to the server" I've downloaded the devbranch thing in steam and joined the devbranch shard, and I don't know whats wrong.
devbranch is not open yet
oh
its only for streamers now
it'll be tomorrow for the public devbranch
I keep trying to deploy in the devbranch but it says "lost connection to the server" I've downloaded the devbranch thing in steam and joined the devbranch shard, and I don't know whats wrong.
@worn oasis when you first got te game did it ask for admin privelages?
No
I didn’t even know you could do that
Oh, did the game ask for admin? No
I downloaded the devbranch and no question were asked
@worn oasis Devbranch wasn't online today
Which is why you were losing connection to the server, since there was no server to connect to
Hey I got A GTX 1070 gpu but my game chokes and dies trying to play it didnt used to lag so bad any help?
The dev branch is available?
Nope
maybe your fan isnt turning anymore

i cant remember if its developers or volunteer mods doing the faction changes
Anyone know how to extract models for things like tanks for 3D printing?
@blissful sequoia we still do faction changes 😄
ooh good then its possible to get quick turnaround!
@blissful sequoia that's more of a gallery than a repository for downloading
oh i thought they could be downloaded hmm
That's a setting that's usually disabled for showcased models.
why can't i hear other players speaking
i reconnected voices and refreshed devices nothing works
Im trying to get on the devbranch, as soon as I try to spawn anywhere it says connection refused by server..
@frank zealot
any idea why?
@analog prism Were you able to get into Home Region?
i have a similar problem as Owl21burbs, i spawn in home region and i get kicked out by the server, saying "connection lost" even though usually my connection is stable enough
can't wait
Next Tuesday and Wednesday we has got phase 2 so we can mine iron to prototype vehicles
None is.
i figured it out
Unable to play the devbranch - game crashes as soon as it gets to the 'Arms Race' title screen.
opt outmy bad
Is there a way of binding multiple keys to a single action? Thanks
lol thats called a macro isn't it? and i dont think any game wants that lol @gray fog
a macro is programmatically pressing keys in sequence to do some sort of action as for as i can read they want to be able to bind multiple keys to the same key bind so they can press any key assigned to do a action which isnt possible in foxhole and would have to be done outside the game
lol @untold thunder I didn't mean that. I'd been enjoying driving with my controller but wanted to use my keyboard for everything else lol, and wanted to see if the game supported having, for example, both 'w' and 'right trigger' as 'forward' if you see what I mean.
there is most likely some type of helper program to do what you want
actually steam can remap controller inputs to keyboard buttons
you will find that somewhere in big picture mode
I'll have a look around, thank you
I just got a BSOD and hit the restart button on my PC and now it won't start up. It starts up initially then restarts it's self on its own then won't even get any feed on my monitor anyone know how to fix this?
Could you try the section under "From a black or blank screen" @terse flume https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode
i like how the only way to enter safe mode is to literally force the motherboard to shut down a few times
Hey guys, how do i really zoom in on the map? I remebember that i could really see roads and houses very close. Dit it get changed? Now i can i only see the world map and cant zoom in very well.
Nah you can enter safe mode a bunch of ways
That's just how you do it if windows can't open
Some BIOS's have a way to boot to safe mode, but it's not guaranteed and some of them hide it
all my homies hate 33 and 35
actually thats only pre built or laptops that might have that option and launches windows is some sort of different way but if its a custom motherboard you will never find that option and are forced to kill power to your components 3 times to get to recovery unless you turn on the f8 option in windows 10
which was enabled in windows 7 by default and was always the way of getting to recovery till they disabled it in windows 8+
I have this problem
And all of my files are valid
I don't know what just happened cause i played normally last update but now that i wanted to come back this happens
@graceful garden can you send war.log located in the latest date modified folder in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Foxhole\Saved\Crashes
@ruby island f8 option doesn’t work on my PC because it loads through the interrupt point too fast to notice the keystrokes
thats why you hold it before it hits the interrupt
Worked first try for me
Just got to hold down f8 before the bios hands it over to windows boot manager and boom you have the diagnostic menu
Has worked solidly 5 times in a row now
The boot manager catches it from a cold start and reboot as well so all you have to do is hold down f8 and your good
Why windows disables it by default is retarded to me
You have to basically trick windows into thinking it can't start to get into recovery
If it doesn't happen automatically
hey i can't turn on v-sycn is this a file issue ?
You can interrupt win 10 starting 3 times and it will let you enter recovery options
Also you can shift+restart from the lock screen to access recovery options
in other words force your motherboard into a hard reset 3 times or just hold down f8
if enabled
@errant canyon if you want to be able to turn on vsync just starting obs will force game to use vsync other then that you will have to enter full screen enable and enter back into windowed for each time you enter another region
ok thanks guys
this is the file
@graceful garden can you add "-forcelogflush" to steam launch options and try again? I think the actual error message doesn't get flushed to War.log without it (your issue looks very close to the problem with SteamSockets on linux...)
@lofty marlin how can i do that??? Cause I'm playing on windows
launch steam -> go to your library -> right click on foxhole in the game list -> select "Properties..." -> click on "SET LAUNCH OPTIONS..." -> set the value to -forcelogflush
once that's done, reproduce the issue and check if War.log has some extra lines in it
btw: foxhole requires steam, and there's no other ways to run it, right?
yes
Is it possible that my problem is caused by changing my name in steam cause i changed it after taking a break from the game @lofty marlin
There was no extra lines
Ok, then it might be something else
Go to options then voice, hit reconnect
Please help! My voice chat is lag and I do not know why. Mine Internet is good.
Ran some logi across the border with a full truck with a friend and got booted. Reconnection error. Cannot log in now.
Any solutions/fix?
Seems common, has happened to a few people
I think it's a steam thing, since steam friends appears to be dying for a lot of people right now too
Yeah it has to be related to steam, cause i can no longer login to steam now
yes appears to be steam
steam usually does maintenance of their servers on Tuesdays
I love the default date as well
yeah heh, just spent 2 hours farming to be network blocked 😛
umm my game doesnt meet the requirement can i still play the game with 15 fps?
like low quality?
hehe boi
i want to know
just always check here before talking in this chat about connection issues https://steamstat.us/
@neon vessel as long as your gpu supports feature level 11_0 then you will be able to run the game as to what fps you will get depends on your gpu
Anyone got an idea of why i get ''failed to download profile''?
you can try restarting steam
how to know if my gpu support 11_0
you look up your gpu or the program called dxdiag will tell you
k
can i play using a 32 system or 64 system is a must?
you require a 64bit os to run the game
but i do not see how you would have 32 bit unless your pc is from like 2006
@ruby island my pc is from 2006 but i can upgrade it right?
like update from the internet?
ummm no
welp rip
if you are trying to play modern games with a pc from 2006 you are pretty much out of luck with most games
ya i dont think so
steam is currently down
why is foxholestats still reporting then
steam down
you will need to restart steam once it comes online again otherwise you will probably get failed to download profile
it returns
anyohne esles voice chat keep breakign?
lots of people
hello! I am having a problem starting the game from steam, I've tried starting it many times but nothing happens. I did "verify file integrity" but the problem remains
any clues?
@hard veldt https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads install x64 for vs 2015,17,19
Is there a way to unlock frames? I'm locked at 60
Ah
Hi, I've also had the failing to download profile pop-up for the past like... 3 days
It happened while trying to cross the border between Loch Mor and Heartlands
Me and a friend both are having the issue as we were in a truck together
Game crashed and now we can't join the game again, I've tried restarting steam, waiting a few days, verifying file integrity, even reinstalling Foxhole. Nothing I've been recommended has worked, please help I miss the game :(
if you have some weird antivirus or firewall maybe disable it, restart your router maybe
@trim arch 3 says ago was steam maintenance usually you must restart steam once you receive that error during steam being down for it to work
that also explains why your friend is having the same issue
ah you said you already restarted steam
try it again to be sure as steam had a problem wednesday that could also have caused problems
@hard veldt https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads install x64 for vs 2015,17,19
@ruby island Thanks, this message should be added to the "technical-read-first" on the section game is not launching when you don't have AMD :).
It solved my problem and allow me to discover this marvelous game !!
just nobody checks them
@neon vessel
actually those requirements are inaccurate and can mislead people
the game is 7.96 GB so the minimum of 2 GB is inaccurate
and in the current state you need feature level 11_0 which isnt guaranteed to be there if you have a directx 11 card
I've managed to run the game with 4gb ram i5 and a gtx 660
Try my Intel Pentium 4, 512mb DDR SDRAM, NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4600
can't enter the game
@cinder yarrow you are on the dev branch so you must be on the dev branch shard for it to work
@ruby island Thanks!
yeet
so...im getting 20 FPS in foxhole on low-settings...my specs, 8GB ram , core i5 CPU, 4GB intel graphics card...i really dont know what is the reason for that..i dont have problems in my laptop because i run a lot of games very well...
it doesnt play well on integrated graphics
you can lower your resolution scale, make it blurrier, and get a few more fps
@modern talon most laptops by default have balanced power plan you can probably squeeze a few fps by changing it to high performance
and another thing is mid - low tier laptops can suffer from windows 10 bloat
and can make a decent difference if you removed some of that bloat
Randomly crashed at devbranch and now it crashes every time

It crashes only after i try to travel to any other region
I can spawn at home island just fine
Steam file verification showed that everything is fine
you will probably need to reinstall
Ill try to restart pc first
did it just start happening
and travelling worked before
Yes
sounds like corruption
try deleting War-Win64-Shipping.exe and verify
most likely not
well that doesnt sound like something wrong with memory
if restarting the game doesnt work there is a very low chance restarting your pc will work
video driver issue maybe
@blissful sequoia
Perhaps
if its a video driver issue it wouldnt just start randomly happening without some sort of hardware issue
I had video card driver failing several times while using sony vegas
but thats different it probably didnt work in the first place
If it was a file corruption it wouldn't let me into home island
not true
Huh?
i have seen file corruption crash the game while travelling between regions
solved by reinstalling
My problem is a bit different because i am deploying
but you said travelling
Travelling from home island
well either way
Thats what i meant
corruption is the likely cause
yes that is pretty much what i am saying
or a consequence of changing to dev branch
then some sort of update caused the corruption
or a consequence of changing to dev branch
Then the issue would start right away when i updated the game
But it let me in for a good time
thats why the last line i said applies directly to what i said
steam isnt perfect you know
Ikr
Ill type if restart helped or not
Ok it does not seem to plague me rn
Yea i am in
hm if thats the case then that would be the first time i would have seen an issue like that solved with a full restart
try traveling between borders
It may crash me to the main menu because connection lost thing
But as for right now it does this a lot less
Yea its fine
try traveling between borders
@ruby island
usually if restarting the game/launcher doesnt work then restarting the pc wouldnt work
probably just windows being windows
linux is 100% more stable
i am expecting this chat to light up very soon when this update rolls out
steam sockets
ya linux users are in trouble
i dont know if its just the new update but in the dev branch i seem to lag a tiny bit more
not sure if its steam sockets
Latest dev branch worked on my linux machine
Possibly. The first dev branch didn't work whatsoever, I forget what proton barfed about in the error log though
its steam sockets
they do not work in the compatibility layer
and steam isnt supporting them yet on inux
its planned in the very near future tho
unless its already out which would explain why it works now
Weird, Unreal Engine documentation mentions using steam sockets with Linux and Mac, so you'd think it's supported
Steam Sockets can be enabled for Windows, Mac, and Linux-based builds with the following steps
its build based
so probably proton would have to emulate steam sockets
I just downloaded the update and the game started so steam sockets might not be in this release
boy if you think linux is more stable you must not be using ubuntu 
ewwww ubuntu
try arch 
honestly i cannot go a week in windows without having to restart for different reasons when i was running arch i had a uptime of like a month
and i was updating packages in that time
no issues what so ever
i could have done live updates with the kernel as well but didnt set that up
if you know arch at all its probably the most prone to breakage and i didnt have any within the month uptime and the only reason i restarted after a month was a kernel update
for new features within that kernel
any of the distros that opt for cutting edge stuff are prone to break
i just dont find linux all that stable
all you have to do is a little reading on the arch wiki and a bit of configuring and bam stable
you just got to understand how to maintain linux
like i had a issue with linux freezing on my laptop i did a little digging and found that it was a cstate issue with the intel chip
just modified a boot parameter and never had a issue since
it even had a broadcom wireless chip which is notorious in linux to cause lots of issues and havent had a single issue
i dunno im not one of these believers in arch being best
linux is a different mindset and you have to learn how to access logs and maintain it
its just a linux distro with good documentation
oh no i am not saying arch is the best
arch is for more experienced users that understand more of linux
and i think realistically you have to go with arch or debian or ubuntu these days
if you want stability then debian
you know, centos
centos is a branch of redhat
and not the greatest for desktop use
thats more for servers
jeez i ... would never use linux for desktop use anyway
there is lots of projects for desktop
yah but compared to windows ... eek
Kernel package optimized for Debian Unstable
here is the best desktop kernel
way more optimized for desktop use
noticeable performance improvement? cant say i ever noticed anything lacking in terms of speed
well you will notice more responsiveness
and probably more stable fps and network performance
there is quite a few more little things you can do
i think once you understand that linux is almost modular in the fact that you can rip out entire system managers and replace them with alternatives and understand how to use all of the things that make up linux and know their commands then its quite easy to find stuff that is wrong and have a much better experience
ive been working with linux a long time
and bsd
for me the reason its unusable as a desktop is because it doesnt run anything i care about
do you understand systemd and know how to pull logs from it
yes
well the only thing that linux cannot run really is games with anticheat and adobe
all my homies hate systemd
and visual studio. and like 10 other things i care about
hah
open source
id rather use vim
like i said emulated or have native counter parts
cant emulate visual studio
nope
have you tried
no
visual studio is too bloated anyway
lol
the community edition
yes
im ok with that
i know it does i used it for a month then required me to login
vsc is way cleaner and smaller
and way less capable
no not really
there is tones of plugins on there
yah but it still doesnt compare to the real thing
it still does the same thing
not even close
it still works the same way
its basically notepad++
notpadqq
is native otherwise you can emulated that
same with HxD editor which is only windows i have emulated that perfectly in linux
there is either alternatives or you can emulated applications
there is luitrus for gaming that can be 1 place for every game across launchers and setup scripts written by the community https://lutris.net/
Play all your games on Linux. Lutris is an Open Source gaming platform for Linux. It installs and launches games so you can start playing without the hassle of setting up your game. Get your games from GOG, Steam, Battle.net, Origin, Uplay and many other sources running on any...
actually nvm notpad++ is so tightly built around specific windows libraries that its not a viable option to emulate
technically you can emulate it tho
never heard of lutris, interesting
there is a lot more tools like that
i think you just havent tried to run linux as a desktop for an extended period of time
if you did you would be surprised what you can run
yes that is of course a option but i trust open source software way more then windows and there is way less bloat and tracking in linux
there is games with steams compiler that run better in linux then windows when its a windows exclusive game
I am not a fan of copyleft licenses
