Anyone experienced some 'buggy' Resupplying with the Boltshark?

Can look at the videos yourselves but.

Seems when I have the Phero Bolts equiped. and I resupply. I get my 50%(+5) + the one equiped. Totalling at +6.
But if I have the base Bolt equiped. I only get the 50%(+5). Totalling at +5.

Am I being a complete idiot here-?

Here's 2 clips showing it.

[modern wave]

Would be awesome if someone else can help testing if this is for other Special Bolts, Base bolts, OCs. With different max ammo. Etc.
I only really got to test 9 Max Ammo Phero bolt.
OC is Quick Fire. Build is 1 1 1 2 1

[fading acorn]

Rocks continue to get called into phase 3 of the heart stone. On xbox. Has happened several time's since Season 2. Feel free to steal this for JIRA if someone still has access; I do not.

[lyric mica]

So im in a trio of stage 3 of deep dive, hiveguard spawned first round of minions, then the second round of them has never come and it's been roughly 10 mins

anyone had this issue? I figured it might be because my scout pheromoned the boss

[hollow depot]

Please don't have bug guts, gore, and blood splatter appear on the hack pad during any event especially communications router thank you 🙏 😔

[lean gull]

I figured this was intentional.. 3rd wave is usually too chill

[fading acorn]

Seems like they don't go all the way through the entirely 3rd stage consistently if so. They peter out after a little bit.

[echo badge]

So, somehow, 2 players managed to join at the same time and we had a full lobby of 5 people! We had a blast during the mission, we noticed that the events thought we only had 1 dwarf in the game so we had to only kill like 10 Rockhard-glyphs
Shoutout to my teamates! Rock and Stone!

(Apologies for the screenie spam btw)

[mossy breach]

look ma it's me

[bright magnet]

we had a blast

[mossy breach]

unfortunately the abyss bar can only issue up to 4 beers at once

which was disappointing

cheers, here is one of the other 4 😄 Notice fellow dwarves how we took the opportunity to build a conga line!

glad to be there too 🙂

[regal plank]

keep failing the edd because of a bug where the dread stays in the walls making it unkillable thus softlocking me

[wind anvil]

Hi folks! New to the server and to the game, but am getting a crashloop when attempting to launch it. Any known issues around multiple monitors (I have 2) or launching on an ultrawide monitor?
edit: reinstalling video card drivers in case it helps
edit2: that fixed it. leaving message here in case anyone else experiences. Cheers!

[abstract dagger]

interesting lingering loudness
I'd never even heard a praetorian make these sounds before, are they new?

i took the daily deal and didnt get paid a single cent

did i mess up or was it just a bug

My game keeps crashing saying it might be due to “MODS INSTALLED” yet i have 0 mods enabled. Legit cant play the game

I am reaching out again about the issue of joining a union via discord. I have not been able to get it working for months and tried everything i can think of. please @ me with support.

[rough apex]

when pulling out my laser pointer I can't see how much nitra etc we have

is this a sertting I have to enable? I don't remember it being one. Just swapped PC's though so it may be one

[ocean blade]

not rly a gamebreaking bug but still a bit weird

[ocean blade]

i'm not sure but it could be mission objective in UI settings tab

[rough apex]

that was set to visible, didnt change anytrhing sadly

seems like it might be mission based or something , not sure. Some missions it's fine some not

[mossy breach]

This happened to me after I got killed by a Sand shark that tried to grab me

[steel fiber]

anyone else have the issue where the coil gun does no damage to the caretaker?

[broken iris]

I just did a Sabotage Mission and had the SAME exact issue with the Coil Gun. I first thought my aiming towards the Vents was bad, but even the eye didn't take any damage whatsoever. Anything else, like his arms, took damage like regularly. But the caretaker itself was immune.
My primary dealt damage with no issues.

[slim thistle]

ever since the new update came out i've had audio hiccups for weeks. is there any way to fix it?

[frigid pendant]

yeah i started having issues after the update as well. try disable master EQ in sound settings. that made it way better for me

[stark grail]

So Ive had this bug before and somehow managed to fix it. Not sure how the hell i did it tho. If my PC crashes before steam syncs Deeprock files from my session, i get a bug (vid). And when it syncs back up i get returned to a save from over 2months ago with all my settings and progress gone. Anyone knows how to fix this?

[azure vigil]

For lost progress - go to the savemenu in game and click "restore save"

[formal junco]

glitching screen with black triangular meshes blinking around,

[limpid rune]

hi guys, im playing on pc and gonna switch to a new one, do i have to backup my save data, or my save will be available just after installing the game again in the new pc

[mystic tapir]

It should back up. Nonetheless, in case something happens, you should always back up your save data.

[tulip crest]

Okay, had the black screen issue for the past couple of days and now I can't even launch the game with suggested fix

[azure vigil]

have you tried updating your graphics driver and open the game in dx11 if you normally use dx12 and/or dx12 if you normally launch with dx11

[viscid tree]

Is dlss implemented correctly? seems to look pretty bad with it set to quality

[unreal pine]

Just lost data of 8 hours play through. is there any way to recover the data? Im on ps4

The data itself doesn’t matter, but i wanna fix the gap between top-right-corner-displayed player rank and the actual player rank.

[eternal mountain]

Where do you report hackers??

For the xbox platform

I have photos

[graceful yarrow]

Microsoft support

Drg doesn't have in-game moderation.

[eternal mountain]

Huh. It was an “infinite health, C4 & Grenades” lobby, I briefly joined and took no damage from an exploder. Left cause I got scared of potential ban

I have pics, but this goofily redundant social app wont let me post them.

[nova palm]

These aren't hackers. You joined a modded lobby. That's perfectly fine to join

[scenic rapids]

They said they are on Xbox which does not support showing modded lobbies

[storm tendon]

The microsoft version doesn't have modding support, however that does not mean mods don't exist in those versions.
Regardless, those were cheats and there's no ingame moderation. People are free to do what they want in their own lobbies as long as they're not ruining anyone's fun.

Leaving the lobby/kicking the cheater(s) is still something any player can do.
You can always go out of your way and report them to the Microsoft Support, though I doubt it'll achieve anything in the present case.

[forest tinsel]

is graphical stuttering a known issue? I just updated my graphics card to the RTX 3070 and since then have been having regular frame lag and stuttering in-game, most notable on first starting it up or when new players join.

EDIT: swapped to DX11 and the issue persisted, and on start-up was much worse than with DX12

I've reinstalled my NVIDIA drivers as well as doing a full reinstall of DRG and the issue persists. it is only in DRG of the games I've played since upgrading

[storm tendon]

Probably a DX12 issue, where it needs to build up the shader cache. It should be gone once you keep playing a bit more.

if it sticks around though, even with DX11, it's another problem entirely though

[forest tinsel]

I'll try swapping to DX11 and see if it persists

[storm tendon]

DRG is more CPU heavy than GPU so keep that in mind too

[forest tinsel]

I never had this issue before swapping a few days ago, same CPU as before only new GPU

[forest tinsel]

swapped to DX11 and did a mission. the stuttering/hanging at the start was a lot worse, and it continued to last throughout the mission

(also thanks for your input and diagnostic help and in advance for any further advice, I appreciate your time)

[storm tendon]

Might be worth toying around with the graphical options, and especially V-sync if you haven't yet.

The problem with stuttering and FPS issues is that it can come from so many different things, it's really hard to pinpoint what it comes down to usually. Sometimes it's just your hardware that does not want to play nice for Y or X reasons.

Best I can advise is to clean off the dust, replace your thermal paste, eventually make sure your CPU isn't too old/weary compared to your new gear. Make sure you got not RAM problem too. Drivers up to date as well (you should be fine in your case, given you've just got a new GPU).
Good luck regardless.

[peak swan]

anyone else seeing weird twitching instead of animations in the victory screen?

[forest tinsel]

Thanks for the advice, that's about what my next steps were going to be haha. I'll update here if I find anything noteworthy, just wanted to make sure it wasn't something people knew about before getting into the weeds. Thanks again for your help, R+S miner

[sage moat]

is there a way I can share a level seed for bug reporting

we got a salvage, and it didnt generate enough legs for the mules

[graceful yarrow]

Take a screenshot of the full escape menu

Post it here with your report

[sage moat]

we scanned all mules, and we were missing exactly one leg. It didnt show up anywhere on the map, and we spent a good 15 mins searching for it

Hey guys i need someone to test something and then report it... it doesnt take long. Can someone PM me?

[stable hemlock]

Is anyone else having an issue where a team that has open spots just goes straight to "multiplayer session ended" when attempting to join? like are these private games that are showing up in the list for some reason?

[ivory harness]

I'm sure it's been said before, but just adding my +1 to the number of people complaining that they lost a high-hazard escort mission because the "Hold 'E' to repair" prompt decided to flicker on and off while E was held instead of actually repairing Dotty

[fluid rain]

everytime i open the forge I dont get the overlay, but i do get the mouse. i have to restart game as I cannot do anything.

[subtle nest]

Bummer to see that this is still a problem for my game

the beards only start acting when I view my dwarves in the wardrobe, armory, cutscenes and forge

they act fine when i view them from outside though

hope it gets fixed soon

[late venture]

Tried to report on Jira, but access was revoked. I first noticed today that Deepcore projectiles are now disc shaped rather than spherical. This was most easily noticeable with the Fat Boy overclock equipped. From a few test shots, it appears the narrow dimension is parallel to the projectile's flight path.

[tiny coral]

Couldn't really find anything related to this on Jira. The laser was still damaging Dotty.

[rocky shore]

Cave leeches can drag you through the escape pod, and trigger it to leave making you fail missions.

[azure vigil]

What mods do you have installed?

[sage moat]

all verified cosmetic/audio mods, and verified api mods like miracle mod manager and drglib

no approved/sandbox mods enabled

[azure vigil]

Did you have the crossbow as your secondary?

[sage moat]

I did, yes

pheromone arrows with no other upgrades

[azure vigil]

Thank you so much for providing the ESC menu screenshot! We will investigate where the missing legs went.

[hollow elbow]

had a funny thing happen today, joined someone's game in the sand biome, while dropping down in the pod I passed by a wind tunnel and it blew me out of the drop pod

was actually kind of nice to not have to wait for the full animation, but I'm guessing that's probably not what's intended

[mossy breach]

I'm here to remind, that the E interaction key bug has not been fixed at all and still occurs, making the game hard to play at times.

[fair onyx]

seems to be a bug when firing the last Taser round in your inventory with the crossbow upon hitting the terrain it does absolutely nothing

[stoic kestrel]

i've been experiencing some serious framerate issues ever since season 2 dropped. from what i can tell the game isn't ramping/scaling GPU & CPU usage when necessary (during swarms, etc.).

hardware monitoring while in game shows CPU utilization hovers around 25% and GPU around 60%, regardless of what's happening. when a swarm comes, the hardware usage stays the same and the frames drop.

GPU is a 3090 and CPU is ryzen 7 5800x. temps are fine. Nvidia driver is up to date. i usually play with framerate locked at 75fps (75hz monitor fml), but have tried unlocking framerate and toggling vsync on/off. doesn't make a difference.

switching from DX12 to DX11 didn't make a difference.

lowering graphics settings didn't make a difference.

toggling between exclusive fullscreen and windowed borderless doesn't make a difference

oddly enough, the issue is only present in the steam version of the game. the xbox gamepass version on PC works just fine. but steam is where my friends are.

any help/suggestions? pretty frustrated at this point.

Found bug where you get stuck in between the liquid morkite pump and the crystal morkite floor surrounding the pump jack and I was only able to get out of it when a teammate pushed me out somehow. I even exploded myself and it still left me stuck there.

[marsh spire]

Hadn't played for a while, but when I came back, my scout's assault rifle didn't have the skin I used before. I had less color schemes on all. So, not sure if I'm missing more things that I had before.

[valid moss]

So, I looked over the Jira and couldn't quite find a bug like i just experienced. I ended up recording the whole match, there's timestamps in the description.

I tried to host a Sabotage mission in Magma Core and somehow ended up joining into an Elimination mission in Glacial strata, and my client rendered the wrong biome, and then told me i was still on a sabotage mission.

[crude current]

Anyone else getting the bug where if you try to swap challenge it just freezes the game? Doesn't matter what kind of challenge. Verifying files does nothing

[high creek]

Is DRG a GPU instensive game or CPU intensive game, because i just got a 3060 12gb and on rival incursion i get fps drops. I turned the settings up to ultra preset because i was expecting for it to run with no issues.

[elder charm]

I am finally here at this discord at the behest of the support e-mails to say that I love this game but it seems to break every time it patches and I request assistance.

I am physically unable to start my game no matter what I seem to do. It goes to loading screens then cuts to a permanent black screen and even checking through the files and reports I only find messages about being unable to connect to some service, I think related to the mod service (which I was previously unable to access anyways).

[ember edge]

my game is running at 15 fps, it ran fine yesterday, ive tried restarting the game, my pc and changing the directx version

[vital oracle]

Does anyone know a fix for mission desync? Me and my 2 of my group members see the same missions, but the last person sees a completely different set of regions/missions and cannot see our assignments. We waited out the mission timer and still wound up with two completely different sets of missions/regions. Any help would be appreciated. We are lightly modded, but nothing that should affect the missions.

[austere coral]

[livid inlet]

alright so im on xbox games pass on PC looking to fully reinstall deep rock since i keep getting disconnects/crashes. how would i do so and where is my progress saved?

[woeful lily]

all the time. I suspect is has more to do with clients just failing to get up to date into on the status of games so we're actually seeing info from the past of sessions that have already ended.

[slim thistle]

i did that, and my audio still keeps cutting out

anything else i can try doing?

[outer storm]

Anyone else getting flashing black spots when the sludge pump fires out sludge?

[scenic rapids]

Try using a different dx version (11->12 or 12->11) and/or check if your graphics card needs an update

[outer storm]

I'll try that, thanks

[mystic tapir]

Your cpu is the bottleneck when it comes to drg. The game is cpu intensive, so if you have a top game gpu but a medium game cpu, you go at the speed of your cpu

[strong gorge]

First time its happened to me, but after scanning a lost helmet, no pack spawned anywhere

even after walking around the whole map using the terrain scanner

[crude current]

Update: auto fixed itself after doing a random mission and save got overwritten

[desert breach]

For a week now I have the same problem that I had in season 1: when Doretta digs, I can't see the tunnel she leaves, if I try to go through it I fall off the map. and the worst thing is that if I am the host it happens to the others too

[high creek]

ohh ok thanks, ya my cpu is an i5-9600k

[past canopy]

I had that happen to me once before in season 1. I had really high ping at the time, maybe your internet is being wonky this week.

[storm tendon]

it's due to desync, which can be caused by the game not having updated correctly, mods, missing files or very very bad ping.

that's the whole list but that's the most common reasons

[desert breach]

Ok I will try turning off all mods

[final quarry]

Ya I've been having a problem where the flare gun doesn't work. Except it's not a client issue it's a server issue. Seriously when are they going to fix that

[final quarry]

I did

I've been reporting it since season 1

[storm tendon]

Are you using mods ?

[final quarry]

It's on xbox

Sometimes happens on steam but less

And it's not just me

It's literally any scout that decides they want to play the game

[storm tendon]

good to know it has something to do with the microsoft version

not something I've ever heard about on the steam version

[final quarry]

On the steam version from what I've heard it's been happening longer but on the Microsoft it's really bad. Starting since season 1

I play both versions and Xbox is definitely being hit hard by this

[storm tendon]

well, not much else we can do that wait for a fix then

[novel lance]

Looking for some help with getting DRG to actually run. Every time I launch the game it show the Coffee Stains and Ghost Ship graphics then just goes to an endless black screen

any suggestions?

[storm tendon]

check the FAQ in the pinned message

[novel lance]

I'll give that a shot thank you!

do i need to disable the cloud as well?

I think that worked! Side note for the pin, you have to disable the steam cloud for the game

[golden meadow]

"multiplayer sessions closed" i get it every single time i try to join a game, and nobody joins when i host a game.

[fresh bear]

I just had a mission as host where it seemed completely desynched from the players joining.

I was fine, but anyone that joined was instantly downed, and they informed me that the map looked completely different to what I was seeing

[mossy breach]

Same, and usually dont get any replies to this bug. Still in it, kinda hoping it gets third in the 3rd hotfix/patch, whenever that drops. Hopefully sometimes next week

Completely stopped me from playing the game on an even somewhat regular basis

[golden meadow]

i think i got it now

i realised my vpn was on

havent tried yet to see if that was it.

[cyan lintel]

Hello, I have a problem with deep rock galactic, I play with the game pass. The game does not launch on pc it says "data synchronization in progress" but it loads without ever launching

[vital oracle]

I found the fix, no thanks to you or the pinned messages. Maybe you should look again, you'll find there isn't a single pinned message addressing the issue, the fix for which is adjusting the computer's timezone settings to be auto calibrated.
I had to search through and scroll back to find someone with the same problem to find a fix. There are no pinned messages mentioning mission desync.
Thanks for all the help.

[heady gust]

I'm experiencing screen tearing all of a sudden. V-sync does nothing to alleviate the problem. I have my frames capped to 120 and my monitor is 144hz. What gives?

[vital oracle]

Are you on Nvidia or AMD? One of my friends was having screen tearing the other day and he was able to use Nvidia's control panel to force it to run V-sync and it seemed to resolve his problems.

[heady gust]

Nvidia.

I've already tinkered there and nothing works.

[vital oracle]

Sadly that would be the extent of my knowledge pertaining to that specific issue then.

[heady gust]

Hmm, well turning V-sync off in the global settings but turning it on for DRG specifically seems to have solved it.

Thanks.

not trying to be that dude but your problem is #2 on the faqs..

[static moss]

Hello Dwarves!

I encountered some bug and I hope I will find fix to it so here it is:
it comes to weapon paintjobs.
The problem is that I am missing some paintjobs for the weapons that I unlocked after getting that paintjob.

To make things clear here is the example:
First I got some paintjob for the weapon while playing some mission
Then few days later I unlocked weapon that I didn't have earlier

Now I have only weapon painjobs for the weapons that I got unlocked while receiving that item.
Is it normal? Is it how it is supposed to be? If not, how can I fix it?

[rich berry]

Herro there,
Got something annoying since that like 30min ago... every time I load up the game I get the black screen after the loading screen.
I rebooted my pc twice and unistall the game and recheck the game files too... so am kinda out of options now :/

[scenic rapids]

To specify... Paintjob or framework?

Frameworks are found one weapon at a time, while paints from cosmetic cores should be available for all weapons for that class

[static moss]

paintjob

[scenic rapids]

Which one?

[static moss]

for a few weapons that I unlocked before getting few paintjobs i actually got everyone but for engineer shotgun, smartrifle and few other weapons I'm missing some that I unlocked

[scenic rapids]

Could you upload some screenshots?

[static moss]

I can't post it here

Hey so I have been encountering problems with the whole discord integration thing which for years I haven't previously. So nowadays no matter what I do I can't post lfg game invites and when I go to the union tab in game it tells me to join the discord even though I'm already here I have already tried leaving and rejoining and was wondering if this is a known issue with a fix?

[scenic rapids]

So which skin is the problem?

The red/blue one on scout weapons was unlocked per class

The orange/camo on shotty is a reward for buying upgrades

Has anyone else noticed bad stuttering when hosting?

[kind helm]

I noticed during the caretaker boss fight that when using the armskore coil gun it is difficult to damage the vents as shots to the vents will often do no damage and inconsistently do damage. Also shots to the eye do no damage at all even when dead on. I first encountered this during a group mission I joined in on and then tried again solo and the same thing happened. Mods on the armskore were 21123 with the Ultra-Magnetic Coils OC.

I know this isnt that much of a gameplay bug, but I cant claim the rewards from the cosmetic tree. Anyone expirienced it before and know how to handle this situation?

[unique marten]

welp this is the second time this week me as a host had the game simply freeze and not respond for a few minutes, before I task killed it.
had another 2 games where i lost connection midway through the mission, where I suspect the host expierence a similiar issue. sadly i don't get any crash reports to hand over

mind you i played DRG for 150 hours over the last couple of months and this it is only after getting in on season 2 that this keeps happening

[royal dew]

Hey there, is there a fix for DRG outright breaking discord's voice chat function?

[scarlet sorrel]

does anyone else also have the black screen issue after launch?

[scenic onyx]

It might be solved by using -disablemodding in steam launch parameters.
If you want modding you can try launching the game without internet once, this worked for one user who didn't get black screen after that with internet back on.

[obtuse cape]

I've had a problem for a while but so far no one has been able to help me. Sometimes when I'm in a mission, the screen will go black for a few seconds. I thought it was a problem with my old computer, but I have a brand new one and it still happens. Only now it's worse because after the black screen, my frame rate drops dramatically. I can barely aim at enemies, it's like I'm doing everything in slow motion. The only way to fix it is to restart the game. I can't finish any mission it's so bad. I did notice a new detail that may help diagnose the problem. After it happens, I notice that when I do anything like deposit, build pipes, get ressuply, ect. the butter icon flickers between X and E. I use controller and not keyboard. I hope someone can help, thanks.

sorry I meant button icon not butter LOL

[Make sure to disband the lobby after trying every fix]

• Online on both Steam and Discord (make sure you're not invisible)
• Make sure the discord server isn't muted (thx to Chindian for this one !)
• You can try using the browser instead of the app (or the other way around)
• You can also try having steam and discord running on administrator mode (thx to Marcos for this one !)
• If nothing work, check this message : #drg-chat message
• Or this one : #interplanetary-miners-union message
• keep in mind : the bot is half-broken, so it's only working when it wants to

[storm tendon]

it's a bit unclear how it triggers but it's a common bug. Usually happens when someone's joining your lobby and you're near a terminal with which you can interact (at least that's some of the common denominator)

[storm tendon]

what did you try previously ?

[mystic tapir]

already linked that lol

[dusky karma]

currently doing that ^

[storm tendon]

my bad

[dusky karma]

might just be the bot

[dusky karma]

you're just trying to help, is good

[unique warren]

three people in drop pod and suddenly fall off

[storm tendon]

which person is the host and can they get in the drop pod ?

no

the drop pod left us

and we failed

[dusky karma]

imma try something

weird

[icy seal]

having an issue with the arbalaster in the twins fight not losing its immortality after sharing health

once it burrows and resurfaces the issue goes away

also happened once the lacerator was killed and it rampaged it was shooting and fighting while still having its immune phase active

[mortal prism]

Is it just me, or it feels like the game crashes more in this version

[mystic tapir]

Do you have any mods installed?

[mossy breach]

I was doing a protect mission, and at a certan point durring the extraction of the heart stone I was clipping through the drill doser and molly, when the extraction was complete I couldn't interact with anything not even picking up the heartstone.

[twilit cradle]

Not sure if this is actually a bug, but I started purchasing perks and I don't think they're working. Specifically I got the active perks "Field Medic," "Iron Will," and "Berserker," and for some reason they haven't been working when I've tried to use them. Am I just doing something wrong?

[silk adder]

did you "equip" the perks in each class you're using? only buying them doesn't instantly make them available for you to use. You have to equipe them for each class and loadout you have. it's in the upper left corner of the equipment screen

Folks, sorry for dropping out of nowhere but I would like some help, my DRG startup always end in a unreal engine crash. I found little to no information online. should I seek help here? is there a better place?

[silk adder]

it was working before I switched from a HDD to an SSD

[twilit cradle]

Thanks!

[silk adder]

You're welcome, I realized I made a mistake, they aren't in the upper right corner, it's in the upper left

[storm tendon]

did you do the basic stuff AKA :

• update your drivers
• reinstall the game
• verify the game's files
• use dx11
• use the -disablemodding launch option

Btw, what platform are you on ?

[steady pumice]

all of my magazine based weapons are doing double reloads

even with the reload button unbound

[twilit scaffold]

i see the bug has been reported but has anyone found a fix for this bug yet?

[storm tendon]

which bug ?

[mystic tapir]

If you still have that crash screen, scroll up on the textbox with the "nt.dll" at the end. We don't really know what you're talking about until you do so lol

[silk adder]

I have the same bug, mine has the ntdll at the end

[twilit scaffold]

thats the reported bug description

[storm tendon]

you're on windows 11 ?

[twilit scaffold]

yeah

[storm tendon]

well, I have one fix : going back to windows 10

[silk adder]

mine is the same, I tried all the recommendation in this comment but nothing worked

[twilit scaffold]

new pc just built

[silk adder]

I'm on win10 with the same bug

[twilit scaffold]

true

[mystic tapir]

But what is at the top of that text box tho? Just the nt.dll part doesn't say anything

[storm tendon]

do you have another drive ?

[twilit scaffold]

not sure unfortunatly

i can probably recreate it

it seems to happen in dx12

[austere coral]

ditch windows, go Linux

Realistically it’s probably a botched windows update. Those are a dime a dozen.

[silk adder]

Mine says:
Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 258] Direct3DDevice->CreateUnorderedAccessView(Texture->GetResource(),&UAVDesc,(ID3D11UnorderedAccessView**)UnorderedAccessView.GetInitReference()) failed at C:/BuildAgent/work/DRG-release/UnrealEngine/Engine/Source/Runtime/Windows/D3D11RHI/Private/D3D11UAV.cpp:116 with error E_INVALIDARG

Apparently is something with dx, but I don't know what

I don't have that folder in my computer, the BuildAgente

[storm tendon]

sounds like an issue about outdated drivers

did you try to make a full clean install of a new driver ?

[twilit scaffold]

my pc is brand new build and all my drivers are fine so maybe mine is different. if i can recreate it ill post a better screenshot

[silk adder]

if that's the case then I think my graphics card is too old for the game I think. I'll try reinstalling the drivers

[twilit scaffold]

i did a clean install of my gpu driver

[silk adder]

I'll try this

[storm tendon]

that might be the case too yeah

[silk adder]

I really appreciate all the support! Thank you very much! I'll try to reinstall the drivers and if that doesn't work, then the problem is likely in the graphics card. it's still a Fermi architecture, it's a laptop Nvidia card

[storm tendon]

oh, yeah, that might just be too old 😄

[silk adder]

lmao, I'll get to play this once I got money for a new one hahah Thank you all again!

[low summit]

Recently, my DRG app hasn't been opening properly. The opening sequence goes up until where the menu would be, and it is replaced with a back screen. pressing alt + enter does not fix this, and I cannot hover over where buttons would be and make any noise. Does anyone have a fix for this?

[austere coral]

Pinned messages

[austere coral]

Interesting. Which model specifically?

[hybrid kiln]

i just had an elimination mission fail last night as client because the arbalest turned INVISIBLE

but it wasn't just for me, i confirmed with the host it was invisible for him too

https://streamable.com/h3ymf1

i couldnt get a long clip of it because the situation was hectic but you should be able to see the fireballs are spawning from an invisible arbalest

[storm tendon]

modded game ?

[hybrid kiln]

for me yes, for the host no

and my mods are just shit like custom UI and audio

[static dust]

Welp, got softlocked b/c one of the twins permanently stayed burrowed and won't come out

What is it with elim and gamebreaking bugs?

[hollow quartz]

not quite a bug, but i've got a tech support question

are slow load times upon joining a mission dependent on graphics card or hard drive?

[scenic rapids]

CPU I would imagine

But having the game on a hard drive would also increase the loading time

[hollow quartz]

ye, i've just noticed my load times getting slower recently and it makes me worry that my hard drive might be starting to give out

[scenic rapids]

Any notable patterns, like complexity or region?

Could just be some of the new features from s2

[hollow quartz]

i hadn't factored that in honestly, idk

[livid inlet]

been having this problem for like the past week, can never complete deep dives on xbox PC

[hollow quartz]

oh wait i'll literally be able to find out tomorrow since my new graphics card just got here

so once that's in i'll know if it's a hard drive problem

i pray it isn't, i don't want to spend more money after blowing like 600 bucks on the graphics card and a new power supply

[scenic rapids]

Todays deep dive took my team a really long time to load, like at least 2-3 times longer than normal missions

No clue if that’s related or not

[zealous root]

Hello,

When I launch the game, I've a black screen so I can't play 😦 but just before I got a screen with "Loading" (and a white man with armor who runs ... I never see that before.

Anyone can help ?

Omg, thx man.

[dusk ice]

guys, sometimes when I'm playing, my monitor turns off, it happened with overwatch, now it happened with DRG, any solution?
note : I realized that this bug has something to do with the alt+tab command

[twilit scaffold]

Fuck lol one day ill get it right

[heady jolt]

Having an issue where my audio turns extremally staticky and distorted during missions and gets stuck that way. Upon restarting DRG it clears itself but its come back again, any fix besides resetting?

Update: No longer fixed itself on reset, might be my headphones?

[still dagger]

Is anyone having issues with trying the Coil Gun on the Caretaker? I was attempting to shoot it, but them landing on it’s weak spots are VERY inconsistent. And worst is that I shot at it’s eye with a full charge, and it acted like I didn’t even shoot it, it made contact with it’s eye and did no damage!

[scenic narwhal]

I need help with something. I bought the dark future DLC and after installing it, launching to deep rock, it runs the game, but I cannot tab into it. I've restarted steam, my computer, and verified game integrity. It shows the game is running fine, I just cant tab into it anymore and upon loading into the space rig it boots me out of the game screen.

I was suggested to try playing on direct X, but theres two otions, 11 and 12

I have tried both options for direct X and both did not work, same issues apply

[scenic rapids]

have you looked through the FAQ in the pinned messages?

[scenic narwhal]

I just did, the situation seems similar but not quite, its not a black screen im getting, im just getting booted out of the tab. I can see the game when I hover over it running just fine, im even able to use wasd while alt tabbed

would you still suggest me trying that fix?

[candid quarry]

Dropod stuck in the ceiling no countdown and molly worked like normal and dint walk to the pod after the mission. I was the host and we even digged up to the pod like you can see and it just was there closed without moving drill like it was stuck in its "T pose" model

[scenic narwhal]

im going to try uninstalling deep rock then re installing

i've made a backup of my save file just in case

[scenic rapids]

I’ve never really had any technical issues with DRG, but if you feel it might work, then go for it

Always back up save file, good idea

[scenic narwhal]

nope reinstalling did not fix it

gonna check my graphics card

if that doesnt do it then I have no idea how simply downloading dlc would have done this

[scenic narwhal]

ok solved the problem

it was a graphics card issue

[carmine zealot]

Could someone in this wonderful server help me with some crashing issues I've been facing in the last week or so.
DRG starts up just fine, but usually after 10 mins to an hour of playing it crashes to a report. It has even bluescreened me once.
I've done everything I can think of short of doing a complete reinstall of windows and all that has happened is I can play for a little longer before a crash.
I'll post the crash context file below.

It appears I cannot post it, What part of the file should I copy/paste into here?

[mystic tapir]

is the file some text or an image?

[mystic tapir]

preferably the whole error stack

[carmine zealot]

The crash was last night so I dont have the crash stack, just the files generated in the crash folder

[mystic tapir]

lets get into the ultrapod, lets see if theres any useful info while opening it on the notepad

[carmine zealot]

Hold on, headset is acting up

[rare sedge]

Whenever I use the Corrosive Sludge Pump attack on an enemy, the terrain map will constantly flicker and its even worse when I'm doing it with other people on multiplayer. Anyone else having that problem?

[raw herald]

I had this and just came here to see if anyone else had it

[finite lintel]

uh oh

[nimble atlas]

crashed in back to back missions, always right when i got into the droppod but before the mission could actually finish. feels bad

[small pier]

I had an escort mission where I had 24/25 hollomite the other day :/

Yeah I looked up and down the cave a few times but no dice. Sometimes fossils also seem to spawn in pretty low numbers compared to any other secondary item you can collect with E I've noticed, especially on escort. Generally have been able to find them all just by looking hard enough, though

I'm wondering if there's something about the order stuff generates for escort that removes some of the wiggle room you usually have

[carmine zealot]

I am attempting to run DRG in administrative mode but it is giving me an error that Steam cant connect to it. Any ideas?

[vital marsh]

How many of you guys are getting the forge freeze bug? (Enter forge, HUD disappears and forge interface never opens, locking you out of ALL inputs. Only way out is either mission starting or closing game. Only happened so far in multiplayer sessions.) Bcus it's cropping up in about half the nights I play with friends at least once a play session.

[austere coral]

Yes, stop trying to run it as admin.

[carmine zealot]

Any reason why?
Im getting access errors and wanted to test if that worked to fix it.

[vital marsh]

well, this is new

now i just outright cant promote my scout

i open the promo interface and its just a character select and nothing happens when i click on them

:(

even after restarting/removing mods/validating game files too

[scenic rapids]

Did you already do the promo assignment?

[silk adder]

This solved my problem, thank you very much!!! BTW, you asked which model was my GPU, it's a Nvidia GeForce 820M

as I said before, I think this card's architecture is the Nvidia Fermi

[tired flax]

How come when I join a “close” server I have about 150 ping

Anyone experiencing one or more of the following…

1. Can’t switch Arrows on crossbow.
2. Unable to mine nitra or red sugar
3. Dropping through the floor/map

[jolly pumice]

hello miners, that solved my problem

[steep palm]

interacted with the class change terminal after a mission but before the "assignment completed" screen popped up and the game is completely locked. Can't interact/move/open the pause menu. Had to alt f4 (I know the image isn't very helpful but whatever)
edit: I could move the mouse though

[compact swift]

Already posted this in general but perhaps this place is better suited to try and solve my issue :

I cannot join ANY game, be it Deep Dives, normal missions, be it via the game navigator or steam. people can join me however, but there are horrible desyncs making it not playable. dunno if i'm the only one, but it broke on me yesterday afternoon.
I have tried reinstalling the game already without success, and frankly i dunno where to start searching for solutions anymore, cause it broke without me doing anything special. I suspected my connection, but as it works as normal anywhere else, probably is not the source. Perhaps the different mining leagues did that, cause it broke around that time when I joined one.

Any ideas ?

(Feel free to ping me btw)

[mossy breach]

For me the performance is better on DirectX 11. I always experience stutters when choosing 12 in this game... RTX 2080 Super and an Intel i9-10900K CPU so I’m not sure why it happens

[astral frost]

Found this video, exact issue I was experiencing with nitra. https://youtu.be/SvyMYyKpXuA

Comment says it’s a desync issue that was happening during experimental S2

[grizzled jungle]

hmmm

P

[sleek ginkgo]

Very minor but consistent issue, ever since Season 02 launched, the first time anyone joins my session after I launch the game, the game freezes for a fraction of a second. Never happened before the Season 02 update.

[heavy oasis]

Any idea to solve this ?

same error with DRG

[hollow wyvern]

any news about this issue? no updates have fixed it, and i can still be caught in a long loop with the minimap refusing to open, and so many critical actions just don't function when you need them to, like reviving and building sentries, where they just cancel immediately

[hollow wyvern]

also these particle effects are bugged, when the minelets were added they exploded upwards, but for a long time they've been exploding sideways at random angles

[mystic tapir]

if it also happens with drg, i would look into your gpu drivers, and update them to the latest version or roll back to a stable release

[blissful sage]

Does anyone have an issue with only the Scout having an abnormally high pitched voice? Its only the Scout for me and it honestly feels like it ramping up with every game I play. No im not doing missions with the helium stuff. it happens in the lobby and every other class sounds just fine, but the Scout is just on helium for me

[north kiln]

A fix was attempted in the most recent patch (on the 16th… rough)

however, it appears to have changed… basically nothing

The bug is still very frequently happening

The most annoying case for me has been failing to repair doretta, where it can result in actual mission failures

[near flare]

Not sure if the following bug was submitted or not.. it looks like the Coil Gun (2-2-1-2-3; Ultra-Magnetic Coils) doesn't damage the Caretaker at all; also the trail doesn't appear after shooting at the Caretaker itself directly (confirmed on 'open bits' and 'opened eye'... seems to work fine on tentacles)

[north kiln]

In general the caretaker takes no damage from the coilgun directly

This has been reported but not opened

As in, it’s been shown In JIRA but has not been assigned to anyone

[near flare]

It is a bug then? I was thinking it might be intentional (for some reason)

[bright oxide]

Can we revert back to old HOLD E interactions?? On higher ping missions I literally HOLD E on drilldozer repair and the animation gets cancelled over and over, and we lost one of the dozer's states cuz I literally couldnt repair it. also holding E on other interactions has longer delay and can be also unrensponsive sometimes

things like that just ruin the experience

its unnacceptable

[north kiln]

Nah, I’m almost certain it’s a bug as it was working in previous patches just fine

plus Itd be kinda dumb for one of gunner’s weapons to literally do nothing at all to an enemy, ever

[mossy breach]

this. devs please see this.

this issue in particular looks like it's ignored over and over

[weak arrow]

is it intentional that nitra isn't always prioritized when depositing but have multiple minerals (e.g. gold) in inventory?

[fringe fox]

I bought the new dlc some 20 minutes and nothing shows up

Can somebody help?

[shy yarrow]

i found a bug,when the swarm starts the sound starts lagging,i checked the local file mutlie time but is still there

[zealous wedge]

Still having problems with the crossbow not reloading itself. Is this a know bug?

[north kiln]

Relatively, it’s been discussed on several occasions

Is it an issue you’re seeing in the deep dive?

I remember discussion of the deep dive having this issue

on another note, my secondaries ended up fully replenishing during this week’s deep dive, confirmed to have happened for the engineer and driller on my team as well. The gunner didn’t get it, but they were host

I have to suspect it’s a lesser form of the “full ammo after DD transition” bug that cropped up around 35

[scenic rapids]

Yeah that’s been happening for ages and still happens for whatever reason, I’d imagine the developers are aware of the issue

[north kiln]

They’re certainly aware, but this particular variant of it I haven’t seen for a while

maybe just another weird case-by-case scenario

Further issues I’ve experienced recently:
Really frustrating hitreg issues with crossbow on client, projectiles apparently fly straight through stationary mactera

enemies killed by explosive chemical bolts will rotate to clip into terrain occasionally, but does not appear to affect the area the explosion emanates from

[heavy oasis]

Well, it only appear when I am in ultra..

[loud dock]

idk if this is client issue but crassus leaves this when killed instead of the usual gold

[north kiln]

Shard diffractor instantly recharges when firing normally with the Overdrive Boosf overclock

is that shallow grotto ground??

[loud dock]

idk

What does the ping say?

[loud dock]

it says blue crystal if pointed

[north kiln]

Hm.

[loud dock]

and says out "wothless" lines

but if u mine it, it acts like gold

[north kiln]

Sounds like shallow grotto, honestly, that area has a lot of blue crystal

Wacky visual bug, in that case

[loud dock]

alright

[silent cove]

Just had a 40 minute mission fail because of the bug

[past canopy]

I did late join in a void, but I wasn't dying though. I was just floating somewhere. So I just quit that game

[north kiln]

ive had that issue occasionally, but i cant say theres a specific cause to really target

because ive had it happen randomly halfway through missions

[north kiln]

might be the host disbanding in general, but i have seen some random DCs which confused our whole group if i was talking through discord for example

i really only saw that in EXP branch though, but i suspect it might be a similar issue

[heady gust]

I've had my game crash four times now, all as driller during a mission.

Three of those crashes have occurred during an egg hunt, and all 3 of them were in radioactive exclusion zone

It doesn't give me a crash log, it freezes, and then simply crashes to desktop.

This form of crashing never occurred prior to season 2

[quaint field]

Sometimes when I’m mining terrain or minerals, it seems to hit an invisible molly/Bosco or similar indestructible items, and I’m quite sure it isn’t a connection to host issue because I’m playing solo. This is on Xbox one, but it might be present elsewhere

[heady gust]

and now a 5th crash, again as driller.

I haven't crashed as any other class

Why is this still happening

[mossy breach]

Is there a known issue for the Engi Turret getting stuck in the 'ghost' mode, unable to place it down or recall it for the whole mission?

[mossy breach]

Couldn't find it in the database so slapped a bug in

[storm tendon]

make sure your game is up to date with the latest patch

[quaint field]

It is, I think

[north kiln]

new issue i just found with crossbow. Battle frenzy randomly doesnt trigger when i kill enemies with bolts

I suspect the cause is the radial damage not being tagged properly, because I only manage to get the speedboost on headshots against haz5 grunts but dont get any such speedboost when hitting armor

If you experience bugs like this - please include a picture of the ESC menu so we can use the info from the screen to recreate the lvl - it makes it easier to find what went wrong.

[dry otter]

Got trouble with transfering saves - Not 100% sure if this is the right channel - Got DRG both on MS-Store (for playing with my "X-Box friends") and for Steam. Starting out, transfering it from MS-Store to Steam went smoothly, but now wanting to transfer my progress back to MS doesnt work. It doesnt seem to recognise the savefile, always throwing me back to the tutorial and 0 Progress. Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

[mossy breach]

wdym

Nothing relevant there

[azure vigil]

Were you or the host playing with visual mods enabled?

[loud dock]

Hmm, I have mods but those are client-side/verified only and most of them were audio mods except one which was the one that give eyes to the breathers and spitballers

[azure vigil]

Did the people you were playing with also see the gold like this or was it only you?

[loud dock]

I never got to ask the other people if they also see it, unfortunately

[azure vigil]

I'm inclined to think that it is one of your mods causing it - since we haven't gotten more reports on it.

Alright then, tho Id try check again if I encounter another Crassus

[mint mica]

Hi,

everytime I try to start the game an error occurs.

It says:

Couldn't start: "D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Deep Rock Galactic\FSD/Binaries/Win64/FSD-Win64-Shipping.exe" FSD -nohmd
-dissablemodding CreateProcess() returned 2e4.

I tried to reinstall the game, checked the savegames and started the game in compatibility mode, but it didn't fix it. When the game exe is started with admin rights, it starts, but only to be stuck in a steam loading error screen.
My Suspicion is that the steam overlay cannot be loaded, when in Admin-Mode.

My specs:

Win 10
I5 i3750k
12GB Ram
GeForce GTX 660

[round steeple]

we had to mine to the drop pod, because it landed outside any cave route. Mission control. could you lay off the beer for a bit?

[azure vigil]

If you experience bugs like this - please include a picture of the ESC menu so we can use the info from the screen to recreate the lvl - it makes it easier to find what went wrong.

Yes - Next patch contains a fix that hopefully should take care of this issue.

Guys, why has the DRG started to crash lately? I've played 600 hours, I've never had anything like this and now it just crashes. I've already messed up 3 missions like this.

[mystic tapir]

Are you using any mods?

[safe steppe]

No

[mystic tapir]

I realized I asked this before asking if you are on steam lol

(but are you on steam tho)

[safe steppe]

How can I be off steam if I play DRG?)

[mystic tapir]

By playing on PlayStation or ms/xbox

[safe steppe]

oh, i forgot about this

[shy yarrow]

hi,so i think that the gale lags a lot some times,and i think it make even the sound lag and its annoying,i have to close the game,chet the files and for 2-3 missions is ok,but then the problem return,help

[strange badger]

f

[hushed delta]

Anyone else experienced the game freezing up when interacting with the forge terminal?

[oblique verge]

Just lost a mission because the drop pod spawned outside the caves in a wall. There was a trillite deposit event in the cave right next to it, so idk if that has anything to do with it.

[sleek tinsel]

Guys my friend has lost his entire progress in drg (Levels, weapons and more...). How can he fix this issue?

[storm tendon]

escape menu => options => save menu => restore save

[fallen aurora]

every time I go to the server browser, its set the filter to show only modded lobbies

why is this so?

[fallen aurora]

it also has the "allow sandbox" tag ticked, but Im not on sandbox, and have never even used a sandbox mod

[storm tendon]

can you send a screenshot of your mod list ?

[fallen aurora]

sure, just a moment to open the website

[storm tendon]

I meant the ingame list

[fallen aurora]

ah

then one more moment for me to launch the game

Ive got a lot of them

[storm tendon]

I see that xD

[fallen aurora]

so is my fate sealed?

my sentence decided?

[hybrid zealot]

There's a bug where when you throw grenades at the Ommeren Heart Stone it will go through it.

or is that just me?

[storm tendon]

so questions now : at no point, those mods were in the sandbox category for X or Y reasons, right ?

[fallen aurora]

Nope, those were all verified

I tried a couple approved mods once, but I dont even run those anymore

[lost steppe]

so...my friend joined my mission...while it was on solo

if i paused the game everything froze but he could still move around, just not jump

[lone holly]

i was with my friends setting up for the caretater, and i had to pause my game becouse hy headset ran out of battery, but when i came back i could not for the life of me exit the pouse menu to join the fight

[solar crater]

Anyone know a fix to this bug?

[mossy breach]

Looks like a GPU Driver Crash

Make sure your drivers are up to date

I actually get this myself on some games too, and strangely, after turning on my PC for the first time, if I choose to "Restart" it (Start Menu > Power > Restart) then it doesn't happen

verifying your files might help too

[clear peak]

Hey please fix Elimination missions! Just had one where sentinels stopped spawning so we couldn't complete, and a week ago I had one where Lacerator stopped coming above ground so also couldn't complete

[inland jetty]

I found a way to make an invincible cave leech. If frozen, then shot with the wave cooker it won't die properly. It can still grab you, and there is no way to get out if it before you die. Can't guarantee it happens every time, but I've had it happen twice.

[hasty hill]

hey

i am using a new computer

just installed drg again

and it is making me do the starting active assignment

even though i am in my old cloud saver

NVM it needed to be restarted

[rapid jay]

Greetings, there's been times where my game just freezes and shut down during mid games without any crash report.

After looking through the FSD log, there's a line says
Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 969]

does it mean anything? Thanks in Advance

Spec
AMD R5-5700H
RTX 3070
16GB of RAM

[scenic rapids]

have you noticed any consistencies leading up to the game crashing

[rapid jay]

sadly nope the game freezes and crash right i was trying to mine nitra

[scenic rapids]

nothing else like biome, solo/multiplayer, etc?

[rapid jay]

seems to happen in both single and multiplayer mode, as for map I think it occur mostly during the radioactive exclusion zone (maybe I was wrong but I do rmb freezing at least twice there)

[scenic rapids]

do you use any mods?

[rapid jay]

nope

[scenic rapids]

which mission type does it crash on?

all or one more than others?

[rapid jay]

it crash on a mining expedition just now, and i think it happens in refining missions and eliminations as well. Btw it happen mostly during me hosting the game

reinstalled the driver multiple times, checking integrity, the only thing i haven't done yet is to reinstall the game

[scenic rapids]

are you running the game on directx 11 or 12?

if you happen to know

[rapid jay]

dx12

[scenic rapids]

have you tried using 11?

[rapid jay]

yep

maybe i should use dx11 instead

[scenic rapids]

I'd say give it a try, generally it runs better for me than 12

my system is pretty similar too, I have a 5600x, 3060, and 16gb

[rapid jay]

true, i was thinking maybe dx12 would provide more performance and boost over dx11 but seems like the crash has pursuit me back to reliance haha

[scenic rapids]

12 generally runs better supposedly, but I find that 11 has less crashes and visual bugs overall

[rapid jay]

indeed, thanks for the suggestion and the help as well, will have to see whether the bug would occur again while using dx11, Rock & Stone !!

[scenic rapids]

rock and stone! hope dx11 can keep your game from crashing

[gilded hearth]

i keep having to restart steam every time i want to play drg because DRG apparently cant connect to steam, ive looked into my settings and it looks fine
is this a bug that other people are seeing or is it just me?

[azure vigil]

could you write your discord username in the comment section in the crash reporter before sending the report - then i'll take a look at it.

[azure vigil]

is this happening a lot in general or just right now? We havn't gotten general reports on an issue like that - and when we do it is usually on tuesdays around steam maintenance times

[gilded hearth]

a lot in general, started maybe 4 days ago?

[azure vigil]

Have you updated your steam recently? We havn't changed anything in the last for days - so I susspect that the issue is with your network or with steam.

[gilded hearth]

i'll have a look

[mint flume]

I've had this bug recently, every time i try to start my DRG it crashes, but if i start it right after it crashes again it doesn't. Any ideas how to fix this? I don't wanna keep installing my mods ever time i wanna play

[azure vigil]

.... do you think... maybe... juuust maybe ... it is the mods that makes it crash? 👀

[mint flume]

Well, i forgot how to uninstall mods tbh

[azure vigil]

you click "manage mods" and click unsubscribe on the mod.io page for the mods you want to uninstall

Might not be all the mods - might just be one/some

[mint flume]

the only 3 mods i always have active are cosmetics restriction remover, health numbers, ammo ressuply indicator pretty sure

[mint flume]

ill try uninstalling all the mods i dont use, thanks

[azure vigil]

Yeah even cosmetic mods can make your game crash - it is mods .

[mint flume]

Alright

[north kiln]

In case a report hasn’t been made, I want to mention here that dazzler module is not working at all

I don’t remember seeing a report but maybe I’m super blind

[static dust]

The 'can't interact with things sometimes' as client glitch is still ongoing

[warm hinge]

Anyvody else getting insane framedrops when playing YT vids in the background? going from 120fps to like 30 on a 6600XT, and only when i have the youtube tap open. If its playing but i have like a text page open its fine

[north kiln]

@static dust waiting for a patch at this point, I guess

Yo wtf

I was just told the corrosion damage multiplier on contagion transmitter (t5 mod for wave cooker) isn’t working for the corrosion debuff and the contagion transmitter’s neurotoxin

The neuro cloud spread is still working properly for all of these debuffs, though, it’s just the damage multiplier that isn’t working

[ionic wren]

This wardrobe beard physics (really any physics but that's not as catchy) bug is a weird one. Fiddling with multiple ideas like capping fps or even switching physx from gpu to cpu just made them jitter worse. Uninstalling mods just stopped the physics entirely. Does seem to be entirely limited to wardrobe and the like as people have mentioned, even huulis seem fine (as fine as they ever are I mean)

[north kiln]

yea, weird shenanigans

i don’t mind it that much but it’s weird

[ionic wren]

I was worried at first, but it turning out to be only in the wardrobe makes it mildly annoying at worst

[north kiln]

Ye. Hope it gets fixed either way

I want to see my big sideburns

[compact drift]

Is the bug where tapping E rapidly on Oil Shale Canisters instantly refills them a known bug?

[desert breach]

Hello its me again.I disable all the mods and the problem persist

[mossy breach]

how does it take away an additional 100% that wasn't even there?

[north kiln]

It’s taking away the weapon’s ability to do bonus weakpoint damage at all

[mossy breach]

so if i have 0 weakpoint damage bonus i still do 2x

?

Wasted 40 mins trying to find the last morkite well Was able to find the wells for pipeline 2 and 3 only. So frustrating.

Looked everywhere in the map 100% sure it’s a bug

[jaunty obsidian]

just experienced a crash for seemingly no reason. dont think it was hardware issues. was experiencing frame drops in a recent mission though i believe it was caused by too many gold nuggets in one area after a gold detonator. though i did receive this message from the crash not exactly sure what it could have been, Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 969]
FMallocBinned2 Attempt to free an unrecognized block 3EA96F5300000000

[north kiln]

No, you will do 1x because of that -100%

It is literally a 0x wp damage bonus, multiplicative with the base wp modifier

Which means it turns into a 1x weakpoint effectively

[mossy breach]

so let's take m1k, if i don't take the weakpoint bonus mod, does it do the same damage everywhere too?

[mossy breach]

Like, by default, M1000 doesn't have any weakpoint damage bonus. So does that mean i'll deal 55 damage both to the grunt's body, AND to it's face?

i'm trying to compare that to my zhukov problem

[north kiln]

no m1k would do 2x damage to grunt heads as normal

gas recycling specifically has a downside which is "0x weakpoint damage bonus"

it is the only direct damage weapon like it that has such a downside

its not exactly... a bug, honestly, just weird

its displayed in a strange way and it's not immediately intuitive

if your weapon by default has 0% weakpoint damage bonus

then it will just do base wp damage

if your weapon has 0x weakpoint damage bonus, then it directly overrides the damage bonus of hitting weakpoints entirely

[somber dove]

Me and my friend just got the same bug for no apparent reason: after interacting with the Forge, the camera pans to the ceiling and starts rotating non-stop.
Fixed by reloading the lobby.
So far, no clear steps for extra repro.

[mossy breach]

well tough luck in general chat, and i really wanted to have it all clear

[dusky karma]

ive gotten kicked from the last 3 sessions when the drop pod was in reach, my ping was fine and my internet was good any idea why this has happened?

[dapper isle]

my friend who hosts our games has crashed for the 2nd time in 2 days out of nowhere

game feels very unstable as of late

[novel bear]

why no interact option??

ok after alt tabbing its avaliable wtf?

[north kiln]

Yeah, miner’s union shenanigans

[mossy breach]

Happened once for me earlier too

[hollow wyvern]

only the one on the top floor is ever usable for me

[frigid pendant]

wait the miners union thing actually works for some people?

i thought it was disabled because of some bot that stopped working

[somber dove]

Did anyone experience regular crashes after the start of season 2? I keep getting constant crashes during lengthy play sessions; regardless of what DX I play on

[wide cove]

a det we killed downed 3 of us after it died and its frags were spent

yeah that happens on volatile guts

…for whatever reason

[north kiln]

Yeah, volatile guts is… broken as hell

My DRG gets stuck on a black screen with my normal windows mouse pointer after the black loading screen with the dwarf running ends. It worked fine last Friday, I validated the integrity of the game files, the game and steam are both at the latest version. I just did Windows update, made sure all of my drivers are updated, restarted, etc. I can run other steam games. Not sure what else to try. Any ideas before I uninstall and reinstall?

It seems that double or the 2 nemesis spawning at the SAME time is still a thing. Had this happen on again this time on a Salvage mission recently as well. didn't get the ESC one for the salvage but at least I got the one for the On-Site Refinery one.

Hi I have launched my game, but its stuck in the black screen, I am wondering if this is a known bug

[covert dagger]

Got the black screen glitch and “-disablemodding” worked

[soft condor]

reinstalling worked

[potent sable]

that did not work for me

[white scarab]

how do i do the -disablemodding thing?

[covert dagger]

Right click the game in your library->advanced settings->launch options

Then just type “-disablemodding”

Something likely borked when the game updated

[white scarab]

like in my steam library?

[fiery arch]

I just had the black screen bug described in the pinned post. -disablemodding in the launch options worked for me

[sour flame]

ah, it's not just me then

[covert dagger]

also make sure it’s spelled right I misspelled it the first time lol

[sour flame]

worked for me

[fiery arch]

same for my wife as well

[potent sable]

is that for people who mod the game, or does it also work for people who play the game vanilla

[vernal pollen]

anyone getting stuck on blackscreen at startup?

[covert dagger]

I deleted the save file too and it somehow remember everything when I went back in, very cool

[fiery arch]

I do not mod the game, nor even join random games (always host)

[sour flame]

see above

[potent sable]

gotcha

[fiery arch]

sorry if that doesn't work for you!

[vernal pollen]

cant seem to find the advanced setting options

[potent sable]

how do i get to advanced options on steam for a game?

[white scarab]

i just did it and it worked for me

[covert dagger]

Did you right click it in your library, not the play button, the game’s name

[white scarab]

thanks !

[sour flame]

right click game on games list, go to properties, it's on the 1st page

[flat flame]

just came here looking for a solution. tried -disablemodding and that did the trick. afaik i didn't have any mods installed.

[potent sable]

oh that helps immensely

[fiery arch]

its not an advanced option. Its under general

[white scarab]

i dont have mods installed either

[fiery arch]

same

[white scarab]

but it worked!

[sour flame]

something with the update borked things

[white scarab]

yeah very weird

the funny thing is, it just happened today

i was playing earlier in the day and it was fine

decided to mess around with a vsync setting, restarted the game, suddenly black screen

[vernal pollen]

ah, -disablemodding worked for me it seems

I went through a multi year old reddit thread about save files corrupted before this server saved me

I still wonder exactly what went kaput in the backend of Steam for it to really not wanna work though.

[winged laurel]

I started running through tons of black screen troubleshooting things and reinstalling my game without actually thinking to check the discord for some reason.

I realized I could've fixed it instantly.

[versed meadow]

my mistake was thinking it was just me so i didnt check any forums first

[winged laurel]

Same here.

I did reinstall it on my SSD though now so that's at least a plus.

I was worried I was gonna have to reinstall dx12 until I saw the system file checker said nothing was wrong.

[north quarry]

nope lol

[tribal pivot]

Goes black after the loading screen for me 😭

[feral lava]

My whole friend group was just affected by the black screen at launch.
The launch option -disablemodding resolved for everyone.

[north quarry]

ty ill try it

[tribal pivot]

This fixed it! Thanks!

[candid path]

right after the ghost ship logo it just cuts to black screen any1 know whats up?

[feral lava]

Add the -disablemodding launch option

A bunch of people are affected

[gritty turret]

how do you do the lauch option thing?

[feral lava]

Right click the game in your Steam library and select Properties

There should be a box for it in there

[gritty turret]

ah yep, thanks

it works

thank god

[cerulean plaza]

[potent sable]

look at the first pinned comment in this chat

ive been helping people with this for liek the past 2 hours lmao

[devout trout]

That's what I mean! I should have remembered DRG had a discord! I'm not big on the discord thing I even had to try and figure out what you meant by pinned message (I got it now... lol)... stuff like this makes me feel like I'm getting old and don't understand technology anymore, haha!

[potent sable]

lol dont worry you're fine

[potent sable]

have you fixed it though?

[devout trout]

In less than 5 minutes I got it fixed. But now it's too late for a few games... but I definitely appreciate the help all around. I had to go to reddit and make a post there that told me an fyi about the discord and I literally facepalmed so hard...

Yooo Dwarves!

[viscid remnant]

-disablemodding worked for me, thanks!

[scenic crescent]

what does safe mode do?

[round steeple]

ah sorry

i think the bug is there being a tiny pocket of space in the wall, which the DP sees and thinks "I can land here!"

so maybe if there was a minimum space the DP has to land in, or a minimum space for the route to the DP, because it couldve been a space leading there that was wayyy to small to see/go through

Not sure if this was a bug but a Scout was really high up on an overhang when he accidently called a resupply. Not to worry he said, he would just knock it down for us. Only when he did, the resupply fell straight into the omoruan heart stone, so we could not get it. 😆

[candid quarry]

the fix for the broken game works its awesome how in this community either the devs or the players respond with fixes in a shot time. 👍

"Currently, this option adds the -disablemodding parameter to the launch commands, so you can easily start the game with modding disabled if you are experiencing issues that might be caused by the modding support integration."

[fresh pebble]

I have no mods and I got blackscreen too at startup

Since today

Safe Mode solving it

[shrewd frost]

yeah safe mode fixed it for me too just now

[lean coyote]

Yeah that sounds odd, the -disablemodding solution fixed it for me

[brazen drum]

-disablemodding worked for me

[lean coyote]

What's Safe Mode? 🙂

[lean coyote]

Oh, that explains why I didn't know about it.
I just set the Launch option to -disablemodding manually, then launched via the toolbar Steam icon as usual 😆
So Safe Mode sets the Launch Option to -disablemodding automatically.
Does Safe Mode keep the -disablemodding upon exiting the game? [like when you set it manually in Launch Options]

Hey, also why is DX12 no longer using my GPU after this latest patch?
Have to us DX11 with some microstutters.

NVIDIA RTX 3060 ASUS

[edgy edge]

[warm raven]

Vystar?

[edgy edge]

east coast Credit union. rather than fix their old janky webservers and online banking solutions, they just said "fuck it" and made a whole new app, new website, new everything.

[lean coyote]

😆

[edgy edge]

problem is, the result is an inability to
-Use the mobile app
-do INTERNAL TRANSFERS

Wanna change money from your savings to your checking? get stuffed nerd, we dont know how to program so your money is stuck in limbo, i've been using ATM's for my money for the last couple weeks like im 60

[scenic onyx]

Not sure what you mean, does the game run on your cpu integrated graphics instead?

[shadow hornet]

Hey has anyone encountered a black screen when launching the game. To be specific the game will run in safe mode but any other mode causes it to get stuck on a black screen after going through all the logos

[tulip viper]

Yup. Check the newest pinned comment in #drg-chat

[lean coyote]

Same message is also pinned here in #bug-discussion 🙂

[finite cobalt]

Where is launch options located?

[stoic kestrel]

if its similar to the issue i've been having: the game does not utilize more than 60% of my GPU (and ~30% CPU), causing a framerate drop when swarms come. vsync & framerate limit is off, so hardware utilization should be around 100%, but its not.

oddly enough, entering various terminals in the space rig (clothing, weapon modification, shop, etc) causes the game to actually utilize all of my GPU. I'm using a 3090 + Ryzen 7 5800x

[lean coyote]

Steam client > Library > Deep Rock Galactic > Options > Settings > Launch Options

[wicked phoenix]

Runs on Integrated Graphics instead of the GPU

Task Manager reports not using GPU Engine

HWMonitor also reports similar numbers to @stoic kestrel, I get several stutters on DX12 and no longer using GPU and only Integ graphics

[fossil moon]

And you have turned your steam network setting to "always", and updated your graphics drivers and are on the latest steam and windows update?
