I'm just after reinstalling the game for the 1.0 release and whenever i try to join my friends game i load until halfway through the "forest" in sons of the forest and my game freezes, if i click it unfreezes and crashed my game, if i leave it frozen it will stay frozen. I've tried singleplayer, verifying file integrity and renistalling the game but nothing has worked.

@cerulean grove What are your pc specs like and did you ever previously use mods?

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 5:11 PM

#

i never used mods

#

i have a gtx 1650, amd ryzen 5 3550h and 8gb of ram

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 5:16 PM

#

the 8 gb of ram could be a bit subpar

#

I'd upgrade specifically for SOTF

#

they recommend 12 or more

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 5:17 PM

#

it worked fine before

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

Yes, everything works fine at least once

#

but computers changes

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

i should be getting an upgrade though so if anything else i try doesnt work ill just wait

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

requirements for games change

#

what's your disk space like with the drive SOTF is on?

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

800gb left

#

using an external hard drive

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

would you be able to install it on the internal drive if you freed up some space?

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 5:22 PM

@cerulean grove can you run with --logging on and send me the log result?

#

also make sure you're in latest build

cerulean grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:04 PM

#

how do i get the log?

mellow wagon Feb 26, 2024, 7:06 PM

#

@cerulean grove goto %appdata% and then go back a folder so you can see LocalLow

#

click LocalLow and then look for the folder named "Endnight"

#

it will then be in there in the "Sons of The Forest" file
