weird though

#

1.13 is on playstation now

tiny imp
#

If this doesn't fix the audio I'll be severely displeased and leave a bad yelp review

Patch Notes: " Implemented save file backup and restore system for corrupted save files and additional mitigation against crashes and scenarios that may lead to data loss."

#

Switch is still on 1.10 and idk if xbox is on 1.13 now

white phoenix
#

i will check for xbox

#

i didnt get an update 3hours ago so i doubt it

radiant coral
#

i just got so it might have just went out

white phoenix
#

still 1.0.0.6

white phoenix
#

i think what xbox version says and what version of the game is might be different

#

its 0.6 because xbox got 6 update ? maybe..

zinc berry
white phoenix
#

i chcked in game

#

its 1.9.12

tiny imp
radiant coral
#

mlls still freezes the gamerivowo

tiny imp
#

I'll test the performance rn

#

The menu audio bug is still there lmao

white phoenix
#

don't have that on xbox

#

i think xbox version have less bugs overall (or its because series s is stronger than a ps4) so i dont have the perf bugs

radiant coral
#

it also happens on the ps5 version

tiny imp
#

Nah my friend had performance issues on PS5

#

Specifically on Wall

zinc berry
#

Thank God they fixed the performance! On PS4 everything is fine now.

radiant coral
#

i have no idea how u can see the backup and restore system tho probably after save corruption hell breaks loose

zinc berry
radiant coral
#

mlls still begs to differ tho

tiny imp
#

I checked on Spearmaster and one small lag spike happened but other than that buttery smooth

#

Time for the real stress test (hunted)

radiant coral
nimble oak
#

1.13? Tell me you can properly play as vultures in safari

#

AND if lag issues are fixed

tiny imp
#

Makes it so all the mobs know and book it to your location

#

This includes small centipedes and snails sometimes

#

No performance issues there

#

So I'm 80% sure it's fixed

#

A bit of lag happened but that's it

#

Out of the whole cycle it only happened once and for 2 seconds

tiny imp
#

Nah

#

Still crashes

radiant coral
tiny imp
#

MLLs too powerful

radiant coral
#

i'd just like to know how the backup and restore system works so i can continue playing the ps5 version

#

Mlls?

imaine nintendo rejects the patch slagony

#

i dont know if thats an actual thing but yknow

YES! PATCH SUBMISSION

#

I don't think there's been any proven save corruption on xbox, but it's annoying not to have them safe. monksilly

ebon phoenix
#

Oh my god, they actually released the patch

#

It’s been months

#

I hope they fixed everything or at least most of the bugs

fresh cypress
#

hoping sound has been fixed for switch

#

and expedition lol

#

ive just been playing expedition the past while and i'd like to get some of those perks and burdens

rare sedge
ebon phoenix
#

I hope i’ll be able to play artificer without lags, cuz waterfront and metropolis were really laggy

sand dock
#

releasing downpour on consoles was not very smart considering its a mod

#

that was exclusively intended for computers

#

if andrews willing to do it then ok i guess

honest ether
#

Jumping to 1.9.13 brings those fixes aswell.

honest ether
sand dock
#

its just a remark

#

consoles are on a different coding language right

honest ether
#

Why would they be?

sand dock
#

i just thought they were

white phoenix
#

for sure its still c#

#

just compiled with mono instead of .net

honest ether
#

Typically porting doesn't include reimplementing and translating stuff. Except for a couple select circumstances.

white phoenix
#

can be wrong but my guess

honest ether
#

I think Hollow Knight for Switch had some weird porting process.

#

Though I wouldn't know much more than just that fact.

honest ether

#

holy shit

#

its HAPPENING!!!!

i'll be able to finally play expedition!!!

#

I hope MLLs freezing the game were fixed as well

#

i hope flashbang and flux coil textures were fixed

#

and audio issues

#

strangly, the MLL in garbage wastes doesn't seem to freezr

#

*freeze

neon loom
#

i wonder if for switch they're going to implement the auto backup feature in the ps version

#

because you can only back up saves on switch with an online subscription

sand dock
#

Game keeps crashing in Chimney for no reason whatsoever

stark rock

honest ether
#

If data corruption appears on Switch then they probably will add it.

lapis pewter
#

Wait, so are you guys sure it'll also come to switch?
It didn't say it fixed data corruption, but i guess the backup works.

#

Nevermind, they literally said it in their post (that it'll come to switch).

#

Damn, i'm so excited for expedition!

#

Hopefully it really does arrive within 10 days!

#

And that regional maps get fixed.

tiny imp
#

Don't forget to passage to all the slugcat exclusive regions as Survivor before that

lapis pewter
tiny imp
#

Before the patch on PS4 like a couple months ago, you could passage to MSC scug exclusive regions as any scug who has the ability to passage

#

For example, Survivor passaging to ||Rubicon|| or ||Looks to the Moon||

Did the new update fix some performance issues for you guys?

sand dock
#

No amount of updates can fix Subterranean lag

tiny imp
#

Real but it did fix some performance

runic slate
lapis pewter
#

Subterranean is unplayable tbh

#

But most slugcats don't need to go there at least.

big jelly eating a zoop lizard causes the game to crash im pretty sure

I killed for a switch patch

#

I mean I would kill for a switch patch

white phoenix
#

what is nintendo doing lol

lone willow
#

Yeah once we get the green light we will push the patch live for the Switch.

neon loom
#

like all that i know about it right now is that spawning all three in arena mode will eventually crash the game

lapis pewter
#

I just found out Nintendo has their reasons for checking patches...
It might be a bit unnecessary though.
It depends on who you ask.

neon loom
#

what reasons?

lapis pewter
#

I'm pretty sure it's for reasons like the patch not bloating the games size and stuff.

#

I think.

honest ether
#

That's basically what launch Downpour did. The patch after removed like 900mb of superfluous data.

lapis pewter
#

But that's a DLC.

honest ether
#

The Remix update. I meant.

#

The DLC is separate data.

tiny imp
#

DLC is a separate patch tbf

lapis pewter
#

Yeah

lapis pewter

#

I’ve appeared for the first time in forever because I remembered this existed
When I abandon an expedition, it’ll erase all my data until I go into setting and select the save file the progress was on, then it’ll be back when I go back to the main menu

radiant wigeon
long basin
#

Weird

#

I’m just glad I still have my save date

#

Data*

radiant wigeon
#

apparently expedition used to eat your save data on console

#

the latest patch fixed it, but it's annoying that it was there in the first place

radiant coral
#

so has anyone seen the backup and restore system for the ps versions or how to access it yet?

rough oxide
#

I think the bug is exclusive to the PS version, not 100% sure on that part

radiant coral
#

its probably on xbox too, reason for the backup and restore system not being on xbox is cuz u can backup your save data for free which is my guess

rough oxide
#

Wouldn't Switch have the same issue with save backups being a paid feature?

radiant wigeon
rough oxide
#

Yes, but the bug hasn't actually been fixed in this new patch

radiant wigeon
#

the patch isn't actually out yet on switch, so we'll have to wait and see

rough oxide
#

I wonder if there were any data corruption reports on Xbox

tiny imp
#

Wouldn't be surprised considering that data corruption isn't exclusively a console issue when it comes to Downpour

lapis pewter
#

But how will switch players deal against data corruption if it hasn't been fixed?

opal flicker
#

pay for the subscription

radiant coral
lapis pewter
#

Have hints been fixed?

opal flicker
faint zephyr
radiant coral
# lapis pewter But we'll also get the update?

i'm just saying thats an option for switch users to avoid data corruption, personally thats what i'm gonna do til data corruption is permanently gone, also if you mean by "have hints been fixed" as in it would say one word like cheese then yes its fixed

winged snow
#

Honestly, I would risk corruption for the update

#

I think it would be rather nice to have to play the game again, if it does get corrupted

lapis pewter
#

But i don't think i would like it because mapping out the map is something i love doing.

radiant coral
#

i wouldnt want to risk data corruption and have to reget everything like the collectibles, scug progress and challenges(and some are a pain imo) i have too much progress to lose on the switch version and even tho i only have done survivor and all pearls/collectibes he can get on the ps5 version still rather not risk it

lapis pewter
#

Are we really sure that this update will bring data corruption to switch, or have the devs found a way around it (not necessarily fixed)?
E.g. like saving before it happens.

radiant coral
final crescent
#

I just don't want to recollect everything I already have

lapis pewter
#

Hopefully the update comes this Tuesday!

honest ether
#

Could be later today.

#

Unless they don't push updates on weekends.

wraith dirge
#

the patch just arrived!, atleast for me, im currently downloading it

ebon phoenix
#

Oh my god it’s finally happening!

lapis pewter
#

They didn't mention data corruption, is it possible it got fixed!?

#

Or at least not ported over.

ebon phoenix
#

If they released that patch that means everything is fine

tiny imp
#

Its just data corruption you'll be aight

lapis pewter
#

Alright, i'll trust you guys!gourmthumbsup

lone willow
#

So data corruption was found to be on the PS4/PS5 versions on Rain World. Xbox never got any data corruption reports during the period. For some reason it stuck to Playstation only.

lapis pewter
#

Oh, ok, so it normally shouldn't appear on switch?
Sounds great to me!

sand gorge
tiny imp
#

Nah Playstation just has that problem in general lol

#

Happens in Payday 2 (happened to my friend 3 times)

radiant coral
#

i'm gonna give it about 2 weeks before i update it on my switch just to be safe

lapis pewter
#

Damn, i'm so happy to be able to play expedition mode now!

sand gorge
#

Hmmm, does the colour sliders still not work on the other consoles?

honest ether
#

2GB download rivflabbergasted

#

Installed it has increased the app in size by 400mb compared to last patch. Weird.

lapis pewter
#

i think the audio is fixed now.

#

4 vultures on screen, but no lag-impressive!

#

Yoooo! Maps have been fixed too!

#

Oh, but map progress has been erased though.

#

But that's fine!

#

Wait, nevermind.

#

Some have like ||rubicon||.

It was all a dream.

my game is still updating, so I'll ask: can you now color your slugs in the main campaigns?

It always worked for me.

but only in black or white

#

How long did it take for players to find data corruption on playstation

radiant coral
#

think it was the same day as the 1.9.11 patch or a day after

faint zephyr
#

It happened. We have expedition now

#

I am indescribably happy

amber pecan
#

garbage wastes gates seem to crash now

#

it's not like it was worth going to anyhow sainthehe

neon loom
#

they what

#

going in or going out?

amber pecan
#

going into

#

I've only tried on expo

#

I know the IC gate and the DS gate crash

#

I tried those on monk expo and spearmaster expo respectivly

neon loom
#

is it consistent?

short parrot
#

Music might finally be fixed, still the same bug with the aquatic lizards

they still constantly swim downward in one place, I can try reinstalling my game etc to see if that fixes it or something.

3rd patch months later and yeah......

tiny imp
#

Tbf they just shit AI lol reinstalling the game won't fix that

short parrot
#

the axolotl wasn't like that prior though

#

guessing something to do with their pathing was messed up, specifically for those two creatures

#

(prior as in before the update and dlc)

tiny imp
#

They kinda were

my first rewardable win in expedition as gourmand!!!

Does anyone have trouble changing the slugcats colors on ps? Besides the jolly coop that actually works, single player only allows me to black and white

#

Personally no, this is for switch though

eternal edge
#

is anyone else having freezing issues when going through pipes ? i’m playing riv on expedition and it’s happened twice now and it’s really starting to bother me

languid anchor
#

anyone run into data corruption issues on switch or do i not have to worry about that?

ebon phoenix
#

Data corruption was on ps only

#

Switch and Xbox are safe from that

#

nice

#

unless youre a ps player
then f

honest ether
#

It'll normally stutter for a second.

honest ether
#

My heart sinks every time it crashes since I don't have NSO.

ember kelp
#

havent had a chance yet to check, but if you've completed some of the challenges already (gain levels, missions), do you need to re-complete them?

rare sedge
#

i believe 1 of those things you have to recomplete but i dont remember which

ebon phoenix
#

You have to re-complete missions to get rewards

tiny imp
#

Yeah only the missions

#

The challenges will unlock after you do your expedition for that patch

#

Reward galore

sinful cobalt
#

I don't how but i spawnd in Metropolis as Survivor in expedition

languid anchor
#

yeah thats normal

#

i recommend grabbing the pearls over there if youre still there
only way to get moons dialogue for em

amber pecan
#

at least before they fixed the passage glitch (I wish they didn't...)

#

like yeah it could softlock you but with jolly coop and karma gate requirements that's never a problem

ebon phoenix
#

Is it a bug that sometimes some layers in threat soundtrack can go off rhythm? I really feel it when it happens

#

That mostly happens when threat level changes drastically

tiny imp
amber pecan
#

also make sure you have another passage just in case

#

or just don't go to ||rubicon|| dummy :3

neon loom
amber pecan
#

right

#

yes it's a bug

#

but it's a funny one

#

don't question how survivor teleports hundreds of years in the future, it's funny

#

how would you get from the edge of OE to five pebbles in just 5 cycles

#

my game randomly crashed while playing expedition as the spearmaster

prisma plume
#

Alright, here me out…

#

So… I was playing expedition, with Rivulet, in Nintendo Switch, alright?

#

So… I was killed in a room in the Underground, by a blue lizard after I attacked a black lizard

#

That lizard got snatched by a monster kelp in the ceiling, with me in the blue lizard mouth…

#

And then I tried to record it with the Nintendo record thing that records things that just happened

#

And… probably that caused this:

#

It’s Spanish so sorry if you don’t understand it…

terse karma
#

That’s happened to me before
It’s a system thing just hold the power button like it says and everything will be good

prisma plume
#

Yeah, but… I don’t know why it happened

terse karma
#

Idk either. It might be a Nintendo Switch issue

#

Since it’s happened to me while trying to record other ganes too not jusy RainWorld but idk

prisma plume
#

Strangely I have recorded many times things in the NS but I think is the first time it happened to me…

terse karma
#

Don’t worry too much about it, it’s an odd system crash.
I’ve recorded many too! Just happens rarely. It has happened to me on odd deaths like that too so maybe for some reason it just breaks the system when trying to record all of that

#

It definitely could be a RainWorld thing since it’s happened to me more with that, but its still super super rare for me

prisma plume
#

Hmmm, also something funny happened other expedition I did, not serious or anything, but just a minor thing:

remote sentinel
#

idk if someone has said anything about this, but entering a room or shelter from a gate room without activating the gate crashes the game in expedition or co-op. at least on ps4.

so like, you enter a gate room and try to leave or go into a shelter and the game crashes, but if you use the gate and go into a room or shelter it's fine.

it's been like this since the dlc came out and i thought the devs would have fixed it by now. i'm sure they're trying though, and sorry if people have posted about this before and i'm just being redundant

#

Cutscene music is still REALLY desynced on switch

languid anchor
honest ether
#

I was Gourmand in Expedition.

#

It's happened to me as Saint too.

#

Something about using the capture crashes the console in this area.

amber pecan
#

I crashed in farm arrays once when a centipede exploded

#

I think it's based on if the game is lagging below a certain point (in campaigns) then the game crashes

#

when you take a clip

#

I'm going to guess it can't handle the weird framerate

faint zephyr
#

Does anyone know why GW is freezing

#

I’m playing as spearmaster in expedition

#

Specifically room GW_C08

ebon phoenix
#

In Russian language “total points” text and points themselves are on top of each other (similar in expedition stats)

IMG_2575.jpg
terse karma
amber pecan
#

what's strange is I've never frozen there on spearmaster before

tiny imp
#

Same

radiant coral
#

i never had it freeze there but i always do in ||the rot|| as rivulet

faint zephyr
#

What’s weirder is that I’ve never froze in the rot

radiant coral
#

i always get it when i try to get the mll unlock

near atlas
#

Did switch get a patch recrntly?

faint zephyr
#

Outside of the expedition fix? No, I don’t think so.

honest ether
rare sedge
#

It happens in sandbox mode too sadly saintpensive

#

So basically you can’t use mlls there until it’s fixed

radiant coral

honest ether
#

The freeze is also like a soft freeze.

#

You can still move around and go to different rooms

#

And the background will still update.

#

And you can pause and exit iirc.

lapis pewter
amber pecan
#

also room effects are weird

#

they stay in the exact same spot

#

on the screen

#

which is how I learned that the proto long legs are a room effect

ebon phoenix
#

I’ve noticed that night time in metropolis in expedition comes much later than it should, like after 5 or more minutes cycle ended night actually started. This can be due to heavily reduced cycle time multiplier (0.3).

honest ether
#

My game just froze in Shaded Citadel, with no MLL around or anything.

vast flicker
#

Heyo is anyone having issues finishing arti's campaign on ps4? I finished it, quit out of the game to manually save on USB, then loaded it back up but I was back at the previous cycle. Thought it might be a one-off so tried again, same thing happened. I'm not too annoyed but I would like to actually be done! The USB save is the same so the issue must happen when the game is closing

honest ether
tiny imp
#

I feel like this freeze happens when a MLL tries to go through a pipe but that's just a guess really

honest ether
#

It went through one just fine before I took that clip.

vast flicker
radiant coral
#

i never had this issue, after i completed arti i did the same thing as u were right after i beat it i backup it up on a usb, went back into the game and arti was standing on the platform that the ||king scav|| was on

vast flicker
#

That's pretty weird. Guess it was just my game's problem then! At least it was easily fixed.

ebon phoenix
#

Scav rep is still messed up. I get chieftain essentially for free every time I play slugcat with neutral/positive starting rep. This happens some time after first interaction with scavengers

#

When I play as slugcat with negative starting rep it’s either very hard or just impossible to get chieftain to even show up in hibernation screen

honest ether

RM_102 in || the rot || keeps freezing whenever we enter it on switch

#

My game has crashed total of 4 times in around one hour at metropolis when I played expedition as arti with blinded burden enabled

#

When it crashes only one or two times it’s somewhat understandable but 4 times is a lot

#

Also I have 3 passage tokens available even though I completed only one passage (same expedition, passages enabled perk)

near atlas
#

It has been like 3 months when switch fix

#

The intro cutscene is STILL buggy and desynced and it's so annoying

radiant coral
near atlas
#

Abd the game's still bugged

tiny imp
#

Must be switch hardware

white phoenix
#

switch 2 soon monksilly

short parrot
#

poor optimization more so

oak fractal
honest ether
#

I don't get what this server's obsession with blaming the hardware is. That's not why it was released broken.

#

The only facet that it plays into is the game's headroom for performance. It will probably always be problematic on Switch, despite how much it can affect gameplay in a lot of circumstances.

lapis pewter
#

yeah, some games run amazing on switch.

#

Rain world also runs pretty great on switch, but laggy areas and some freeze bugs can make it look like doesn't.

#

But it's still more than playable.
(avoid said areas though)

short parrot
#

Agreed, it's like people haven't noticed so many games have released entirely buggy this past almost decade.

That's why I normally wait potentially years for a game to get patched, for it's dlc to fully release before buying it at a cheap price on sale.

eternal edge
#

yea i think the dlc should not have been released in full price for the state it’s in at least on switch

#

you litealry can’t go through || the depths in the rot || without the game freezing or crashing it’s abysmal like god forbid you go through the underhang or dare look at a || mll || for one second

#

man i wish rain world was for mac i would be thriving rn if that was the case

tiny imp
#

How insane it is that audio issues somehow just went over every playtesters' head

eternal edge
#

tbh idk if they did any playtesting at all

honest ether
#

They probably did. And would've definitely been aware of the bugs. But for some reason or another they weren't able to push a fix before release date. That be the fix not existing or some weird behind the scenes thing we don't know about preventing it at the time.

#

It was the responsibility of whoever was managing the port. And the ball was dropped. At least it works mostly now.

#

Hopefully they fix some of the more annoying bugs that still exist. And especially the crashes.

lapis pewter
#

Damn, yeah, you guys are right, the cutscenes are really desynced.
Or at least the intro ones.

amber pecan
#

I would honestly wait another year if downpour was not this buggy

#

well maybe

honest ether
#

It's fine now for the most part.

#

I haven't experienced a data corruption that has deleted my 350 hour save on the latest patch.

tiny imp
#

It was a playstation issue lol

sinful cobalt
ebon phoenix
#

Idk why but my game keeps crashing while loading when I try to continue my hunter run. I hibernated at VS-S03 with a slugpup. Is there any way to fix this? I don’t want to lose my perfect run

#

Also each time it crashes I lose karma which can eventually just kill the run due to limited cycles

honest ether
#

I'm having that exact same issue in another campaign in the same shelter.

#

I had just found a second slugpup and hibernated in that shelter on the way to Filtration System. But it crashes on load every time I attempt to load the file.

#

Sheltering with slugpups in Pipeyard is so finicky.

opal flicker
#

my game just randomly crashed in my survivor expedition

#

it was a night in OE

tawny osprey
#

I know why it crashed

#

If you enter a gate room in expedition mode or co op and then leave the room without going through the gate the game will crash.

#

I really hope they fix this because I've had to put up with this during all of my expeditions and it just basically removes certain shelters from the game like the chimney canopy shelter that is next to sky islands. That one is evil. in the meantime go into the remix menu and turn on no random cycle duration it helps out a lot with this bug.

#

(oh as a bonus report I found a leviathan break dancing on top of the water one time I have the video saved on my switch)

ebon phoenix
#

Is VS-SO3 shelter safe to use without slugpup?

balmy meteor
#

I have a bug where if i get an ending the game will rewind that campaign's time to last cycle

strange mauve
#

Pretty sure that's normal

balmy meteor
#

I hibernated at that train shelter in outer expance and got survivor's downpour ending

strange mauve
#

Yeah that's normal

balmy meteor
#

No not in tgat way

#

It also removes the ending select art

strange mauve
#

Oh

balmy meteor
#

And artificer also gets moved to last shelter instead of spawning at trone room with chieftain mask

strange mauve
#

Hmm

balmy meteor
#

And they took away my ending art

#

And for some reason my pups??

strange mauve
#

That's weird

balmy meteor
#

And i think i can activate OE ending again but i didnt test it

did the pipeyard slugpup thing also had an affected with tamed lizards?

Hi so, I keep being softlocked on switch. It crashes when going through a pipe linked to a gate, but only seems to happen when I'm either with a slugpup or another player. It's been happening since the DLC released in July but I only just unlocked slugpups. I was so excited to find my first one but he broke the game and now I'm stuck between shoreline and shaded citadel. Not enough karma to go back, crashes every time I go forward. 😞

I was coming from Shoreline, going to shaded citadel. The game also crashes if I leave the shelter and go back in, so I can't starve to use a passage either

Yeah don't enable Jolly Co-op unless explicitly using the multiplayer function for that session, since you'll run into these bugs.

Should be fine.

#

I haven't heard too much about the experience from Xbox players, probably because Rain World had only released when Downpour came out.

But I assume it had the same bugs as PS4 and Switch, and most of those have been fixed in subsequent patches.

Hey, I have a question about the save files in Rain World. I want to know if is only me experiencing thid or if other people experienced this as well.

Today I open the game in my PS5 and I saw that all my save file data was completely deleted. Yesterday was totally normal, I had all of the slugcats' stories completed, I had all the creatures/items unlockables, I had all of the safari unlockables, I completed all of the challenges (except for the 70 challenge), and I completed all of the expeditions. I only replayed Survivor's campaign, Saint's campaign, and Artificer's campaign for a bit.

But today everything was deleted out of nowhere. I honestly didn't do anything for it to be deleted like that out of nowhere.

tiny imp
#

@formal plinth To make sure it was actually deleted, go to a different save file and go back to your main one. For some reason that visual glitch is there. If it's 100% gone, unless you have PS+, I do not believe there is a way to get your data back.

#

For some God forsaken reason, the console port fucked up how saves work I guess and the day that'll be fixed is when there's roots growing in your house

#

I switched to a different save file and went back to my main one, it is 100% gone since I don't have PS+

I could swear you were able to select shelters you haven't visited in that exact playthrough before

It's only ones you have visited. It should show the shelter logo on the room if you can select it.

elder otter
#

where you could even passage to regions that didnt even exist in your campaign?

near atlas
#

I specificallt remember the "no passaging to shelters you haven't visited in that playthrough" rule for speedruns iirc so I know this was a thing before and im not delusional

elder otter
#

ok so what about my answer about the console bug?

#

the passage bug on console was a thing pretty well known

#

it makes sense to add that rule to speedrun until the bug gets patched

#

imagine you could just passage in a shelter in FS and now you can just beat the game if you just rush monk passage

If not then I,can make a thread on this, but on the Switch there's a really jarring desync in the cutscenes. Music no longer plays in time with the cutscene, resulting in desynced music beats and large periods of silence towards the end when the song is finished playing but the images are still playing through. This really spoils the atmosphere of many cutscenes and I hope it gets fixed soon

near atlas
#

I thought that was the norm

near atlas
rough oxide
# near atlas I could swear it worked differently before. In the past I could passage to shelt...

Before Downpour:

  • Shared map progress between campaigns
  • You can passage to any shelter visited in either past or current playthroughs

Since Downpour:

  • Map progress is separate between campaigns to accommodate world changes through time
  • You can only passage to shelters visited in your current playthrough

This is an intentional change, it has worked like this on PC since DP release
Originally, console DP did not change this properly which caused situations like passaging to regions which shouldn't exist in the current time
With recent patches it should now work as intended (not sure about separate map progress however)

(PS5) With Jolly Coop and MSC enabled, Pipeyard's shelter VS_SO3 will crash the game everytime you go back to that campaign which requires a full reset of that campaign to work again

Guys, calm down, lots of bugs have been fixed already after the release on console.
I know it's not right to be given a "broken" dlc, but they're getting there slowly but surely fixing all these bugs.
It has tons of content (i would say 2 times as big as the base game), and you should expect bugs.

tiny imp
#

Idk man these bugs somehow went through playtesting (audio bugs, crashing, expeditions not working on launch, safari crashing, batflies crashing the game, MLLs crashing the game, missing audio, funny soft locks, etc) and then they had the gall to give it a price tag

#

I don't care if it was even lower, they sold a broken product and by no means should I praise these blind playtesters for letting it slip through

#

Especially when it took MONTHS (ESPECIALLY for Switch players) to get an actual good patch but even then this waste of 15 bucks isn't even fixed and it'll take even longer for it to be fixed

#

These playtesters gotta get fired or some shit

Gates only work with Jolly Co-op enabled if you use them in the same cycle as when you exit them. Basically going from one side to the other, waking up on one side and leaving without using the gate causes it to crash for some reason.

I would've thought they'd have fixed it but this issue still occurs seemingly.

I certainly remember sleeping in shelters at gate rooms without peeking outside before, but my memory isnt that reliable

Ok, so can someone tell me if this is a bug or optimization?
When a creature is on the other side of a pipe the pipe changes color and maybe blinks, but it never glows or flashes when it happens. It nearly makes it impossible to tell if a vulture is on the other side. Might just be a switch issue?

my guess is that someone forgot to take out the vanilla connection

in vanilla precipice doesnt exist so the pipe goes directly to the shelter

but with dp the pipe goes to the UW_PREGATE room before going to the shelter because the UW_PREGATE room connects to the gate to precipice

there is also this which is just weird

its the room before undergrowth

Might be a similar problem to mine. My expedition menu won't give me the checkmark if I complete one of the main missions. Weirdly it seems to still count it in the stats. It's annoying cause I need to finish apex predator but I would get nothing at all for it! I got the checkmarks fine for most of the expeditions before the most recent update... that might have caused this. I did submit a bug report a while ago but seems like noone knows anything about this : (

radiant coral
#

i get the rewards but i get no checkmark for it and it doesnt say i did it in the milestones section i'm afraid i wont get the achievement for it, i even re did monk's mission to see if it will count, nope nothing

vast flicker
#

Definitely sounds like the same thing. I did get the milestones though somehow... I did arti and saint's missions and they don't have checkmarks but they counted towards the 3 arti / saint quests anyway. My expedition menu has everything neat and done at the bottom but not at the top. I kinda doubt the game will give the achievement if it doesn't recognise you've done it : (

radiant coral

some gotten the achievement so it might be possible hopefully

#

also on the wiki it says "all QUESTS completed " not missions even tho u must do the missions to complete all quests but it might i'm just scared of the chance it wont

I did get it myself so it should be okay? Yeah even though you need the missions for the quests, I have every quest but not every mission.

I haven't had data corruption in ages and it got me twice before the update fix so I think that issue is pretty much gone luckily!

I've been so paranoid about that i've not touched the ps4/5 versions( expect for the ps4 version cuz i randomly wanted to unlock kayava and it spiraled from there) in months and when i play on my switch i'm still on 1.9.10 just to be safe

Hopefully the expedition menu bug can be fixed, would be pretty sucky if it was a permanent bug for the save file. I've got a 100% completion file and I would like to keep it that way for expedition also. (Not so sure about completing all the challenges though! Sounds like nothing but pain to me)

radiant coral
#

as long as i get the expedition achievement i couldn't care less but the 75 challenges thing i'm only doing all on the ps5 version and i might give up on that cuz of the last challenge

Yep the last challenge is like an entirely different genre of game haha. I'm probably not getting that achievement anytime soon so I guess I still won't have done everything even if the game actually recognised I've done the expedition missions

well while trying to get all the quests done i'm trying to get doomed unlocked to see if my bs strat will work with that and if it does it can really help people speed through those 2 quests so the game cant screw u over either it be rng or crashing cuz rain world has been the most unstable game i've played

When checking out regions in the main menu the room connections appear to be out of place where some are just not even connected to rooms. Is fine when playing.
Also if a creature, like a lizard trys to enter a sleep spot while it's being closed on the next cycle said creature will continue to be in said sleep spot which can be a problem if its a aggressive creature.

That is... just how rain world is on console : )
The game can just crash anytime it feels like it really. You can try to prevent crashes by avoiding stuff that might overload the game but that probably won't work anyway!
It was even worse on ps4 when crashing had a chance to just completely corrupt your save file.
Sometimes the reason for crashing is Just Because and the solution is that there isn't one : )

That would be helpful

Yeah! I had that thought too. Especially since some bugs can be devastating unless you already know about them, like arti in co-op or MLL freezes or pupyard (that one's still around right? I still haven't got wanderer on my surv cause I'm avoiding it)
Would be great for bugs with simple solutions too like precycle flooding crashes

tiny imp
#

Why are you avoiding Pipeyard lol

#

The shelters eating pups isn't as bad as they're close to each other if you try to find them

#

Pretty sure that's fixed anyways

#

The only issue in there is the shelter closest to the Filtration gate which should be avoided at all cost

I see! I'd only ever heard small bits and pieces about the pipeyard pup glitch so I was mainly avoiding it just cause of how unknown it was : )

Like I said, not sure if it's fixed or not but it shouldn't be much of an issue

#

You can use the shelter that's closest to Industrial so if your pups get lost they'll be near the scav treasury

faint zephyr

Having a pup in that shelter will make your campaign crash when resuming it

# radiant coral what's the arti jolly co op one i heard of pupyard and experienced the mll freez...

Supposedly, playing as arti with co-op in a campaign that's not theirs will permanently lock karma at one for that campaign, even if you select a different scug after, and it's not fixable on console (You can mess with the files to fix it on pc). Only solution is a reset of the campaign or turning off karma requirements entirely which not everyone would want to do. Haven't experienced this bug either but I'm not exactly eager to try and see for myself, not worth it at all!
I don't think that one's been fixed yet. Maybe it's kinda hard to fix, since that's just how arti's karma works

oak fractal
#

It's definitely something that can be fixed, especially if the fix only involves one line and it doesn't happen with Saint anyway

radiant coral
oak fractal
#

I've never heard of it happening with Saint

#

Arti has always been the reported issue

radiant coral
#

its the console version of rain world i won't completely dismiss it as being possible

vast flicker
#

Huh not heard that about saint before, it does make some sense though. There are a bunch of things tied to specific characters that completely break if you mix them in an unintended way. Gourm's momentum-based damage and pouncing is broken if they have riv's speed perk. Arti cannot use gourm's crafting perk. I'm not surprised the temperature / rain mechanic is tied to saint as a character. Arti is also the only scug with the ability to borrow scav karma (which is why the bug is a problem)
I wouldn't consider that saint thing a bug though, it's the 'permanent even if you're not arti anymore' part that's the issue
I kinda wanna try testing that with saint now. I'm curious if you still get cold and change colour without the blizzard

Hey this is my first time reporting a bug so hopefully I'm doing this right but I'm on ps4 and my gourmand campaign is glitched, I go through the ending and after the credits roll I've got the new ended campaign art, but when I turn the game off and come back in the save reverts to the cycle before I reached the ending. Is that supposed to happen?

tiny imp
#

No

wispy sage
#

The game kinda just forgets that I've finished the gourmand campaign when I turn the game back on after leaving, it even forgets the length of the campaign

#

It goes back a few minutes

tiny imp
#

PlayStation tends to have save issues

#

Even predating in like 1.5

#

Not sure if there's a fix you can do though

wispy sage
#

Yeah, I've never had any issues with the other campaigns aside from crashing when leaving a karma gate/entering a shelter but the crashes have stopped

#

The only glitch I'm experiencing is this one

tiny imp
#

You can either keep doing it or sheltering near the ending so you don't have to go back a far distance

wispy sage
#

I am sheltered near the ending, no matter how many times I've redone it it just reverts back to the previous cycle when the game reloads

#

On top of all this I had slugpups but after reaching the ending and opening my game the next day the pups were completely gone

#

I had all my progress but they just vanished :[

#

I don't really mind if there isn't a fix at the moment I just hope the devs possibly see this and patch it

tiny imp
#

Here's hoping

radiant coral
#

this might not help but what ending did you do and does it still have the ending art on the selection screen?

wispy sage
#

Food quest ending (I had slugpups unlocked via cheats, though I tried again after deactivating them and nothing changed), I had the ending art as long as the game kept running but after I close the game everything is reset

#

Basically the ended campaign stays until the game is reopened

radiant coral
#

yea sounds like the weird save glitch from 1.5 might still be here sadly had that happen to me on my second hunter run on switch i recommend making a bug report and hope one of the staff see it cuz that bug was hella annoying to deal with back then

wispy sage
#

alright, sorry how would I make a bug report? I've never made one monkwail

tiny imp
#

You've already made one

radiant coral
wispy sage
#

so sorry for the late response but the run is exactly 100 cycles long

#

as for hours its like 11 ish?

#

10?

radiant coral
#

no i mean across all campaigns

wispy sage
#

ohh, i cant remember the exact numbers but gourmand is my longest one, ive finished every other campaign within like 4-6 hours with artificer being 9

radiant coral
#

if u check later ping me wut it is cuz on switch i've been doing all pearls and passages runs for all of them (except hunter just did their one special pearl and saint cuz i haven't unlocked them yet) i've spent 24 hours on spearmaster, did 2 gourmand and arti runs (both runs of each was part of the all pearls and passages runs) to screenshot both ending art and re did rivulet cuz i accidentally started the ending sequence before reading all the pearls and never had this issue come up again since 1.5 so im just so confused why it would come up again and this late after downpour

wispy sage
#

alright, ive got people coming over but ill hit you up in a few hours probably

Heyo, not sure if it'll help, but I had that same saving issue with arti. Killed the chieftain 3 different times and it wasn't staying completed. What fixed it for me was immediately continuing without exiting the game / going to the main menu, and just saving in a shelter like normal. Turns out, me closing the game to copy it to a USB to prevent save issues, was indirectly causing save issues...
Not sure if you've tried this already but it's worth a try if not : )

wispy sage
wispy sage
#

I haven't done anything USB related whatsoever but my PS4 is hooked up to an extended storage unit so I'm starting to think this issue may have something to do with the console being connected to external storage

vast flicker
#

Nice to know it seems to be a consistent fix : )
My theory for this bug was that completing the campaign doesn't save 'fully' and is missing something that usually happens when you shelter normally, It reverts cause it didn't save properly.
I've not heard of this being a very common bug though so maybe it is related to external storage!
Seems odd though, using a backup shouldn't affect the game data at all really, it's only being moved one-way. I'm not sure how hardware could cause a software problem in this case, surely that would mean its a problem with the whole console rather than the game. It's too bad this bug isn't common enough to test what causes it I guess

radiant coral
#

at least its not the 1.5 save glitch but thats weird as arti and spearmaster i left them exactly were they ended maybe cuz i went in to screenshot where they were it recognizes that its completed even if i just went back in for 10secs

vast flicker
#

It seems very rare. Maybe it only occurs with very specific circumstances. I'm just glad it does actually have a solution.
Imagine if it's something silly like, you get the glitch cause you killed exactly 20 lizards. That would truly be the type of bug only rain world could come up with : )

wispy sage
wispy sage
#

Alright didn't think I'd be back again so soon but after deciding to do another hunter run I've found that it specifically still has karma gate crashing issues that were not there prior to downpour

#

Almost if not every gate will crash if you go through any pipe that isn't the one that'll take you to the next region

#

Shelter, the pipe which you came through, anything like that

#

Your game crashes instantly and none of the other campaigns have this problem for me

#

The game will also crash if you go back into the gate and then try exiting again

#

I'm not going to go and test every gate there is but I know at least 3 of them have this problem (sky island/chimney canopy, sky island/farm arrays, shoreline/sub)

radiant coral
#

do u have jolly co op on?

vast flicker
#

Haha I was a second too slow

#

That one's a very well-known bug

wispy sage
#

Nope I don't

vast flicker
#

Is it a shelter failure?

wispy sage
#

I doubt it since it'll also crash if you exit through whatever pipe you came through

#

Basically no matter what you do the game crashes if you go through anything but the pipe leading to the next area

vast flicker
#

Hmm

#

It's not the 2 most common crashing causes it seems

#

And you've only had this for hunter too?

#

That's new to me heh

wispy sage
#

Only hunter, every other campaign works just fine

vast flicker
#

I would maybe try and see if turning off various settings works. If it's only happened since downpour you might be able to narrow down a cause? Maybe even turn on jolly co-op and turn it off again, who knows, it might do something. hopefully not make it worse though!

wispy sage
#

Alright, I'll do that :)) I'll let you guys know if anything works

#

At least this is hunter exclusive

vast flicker
#

Depending on where you are you could even try completely turning downpour off

#

See if it's definitely downpour's fault

wispy sage
#

I'm in filtration so turning off downpour would probably mess something up since it's rooms were rearranged

#

But I'm very sure it's downpour related since I've never had crash issues for anything before it

vast flicker
#

It definitely seems weird

wispy sage
#

Maybe my PS4 is just slowly starting to show it's age

#

The thing has been with me for the better part of 7 years??

#

I'll do my best to get to the bottom of this

vast flicker
#

Mine's not at all new either : )

wispy sage
#

It has a pretty hard time with framerate in outer expanse too so eh

#

Outer expanse rooms are really packed and my PS4 does not like that lmfao

vast flicker
#

Yeah that's just the rooms being massive haha

#

That happens in sub too

radiant coral
wispy sage
#

Well you've got a switch

#

Pretty big difference in consoles

vast flicker
#

I don't think I've ever crashed in hunter. It's usually spearmaster that's the most unstable

radiant coral
#

and a ps5 still no issues on both ps4 or ps5 versions

wispy sage
#

Spearmaster has been very smooth in my case

#

I guess our consoles just have slugcat biases

vast flicker
#

Yeah haha

#

My ps4 really hates spear's LTTM

#

Had multiple crashes there

wispy sage
wispy sage
radiant coral
wispy sage
#

Especially the one right before you enter his chamber.. My console seriously hates all the techy neon light overlays

#

Our consoles have favourite and least favourite slugcats lmfao

vast flicker
#

I guess consoles really do have preferences : )

wispy sage
#

How adorable

vast flicker
#

Or the game is just that unpredictable

wispy sage
#

With how weirdly attached I am to my console I'm gonna stick to thinking it has preferences

#

I'll steer away from the hunter moving forward ❤️

radiant coral
vast flicker
#

If you have the extra patience, try a second save file and see if that one gets the same problem

wispy sage
#

I love gourmand a lot more anyway

wispy sage
#

Maybe my PS4 has literal days to live ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Or you've got tony stark's switch

radiant coral
vast flicker
#

It's kinda fun to see what you get from the bug lottery but it doesn't usually help the gameplay much : )
It's definitely a unique game that's for sure

wispy sage
#

Yeah its kinda one of the things that makes me love it

#

Other times it makes me want to throw my controller at my TV

#

Its a mixed bag

vast flicker
#

It's got a mind of It's own so it feels like the game is doing stuff on purpose sometimes

wispy sage
#

I will say though crashing at a karma gate isn't very fun when you just clutched crossing 2 regions in one cycle 😭 or accidentally softlocking yourself by sleeping in the karma gate shelter which'll make you crash no matter which way you'll go

radiant coral
wispy sage
#

I've had to restart my run because of that a few times but I've learnt to find alternative routes and whatever

wispy sage
radiant coral
#

its a 7 year old switch with like 40 games on it i'm just glad it still works

wispy sage
wispy sage

i'm glad i got a ps5 cuz if i didnt fnaf security breach would have put it in its grave

Niice, journey is one of the first console games I ever played and has been a dearly beloved title since

#

Alongside thatgamecompany's other titles

#

This whole conversation is getting kinda off topic though considering the channel 😔

vast flicker
#

Lil bit haha
Go track down whatever is causing your crashing : )

wispy sage
#

Yeah sure thing!!

wispy sage
#

Alright it took me a hot minute to get back here because some stuff came up but in the end jolly coop was indeed the issue despite it not being turned on?? Lol

#

Turned it on and off and the issue is seemingly gone

#

Really confusing but oh well

vast flicker
#

How sneaky of it! At least it wasn't permanent : )
I mightve had jolly co-op do something like that before actually. I've finished a campaign to see some points given for 'friends sheltered' even if I've not had it on at all. I think I even saw it after beating the game in one sitting without quitting out a single time.
Definitely something weird going on. If you finish at some point maybe check if you got some 'friends sheltered' points for no reason too!

Bro, when is the console port going to get fixed!!!
It's 2024...

#

Maybe before silksong releases.

white phoenix
tiny imp
#

Console port update is Rain World's Silksong

radiant coral
vast flicker
#

As annoying as it is, we should probably be a lil patient with the devs.
This is the kind of game complicated enough that fixing one thing might break ten other things : )
They have other stuff they wanna do too!
(At least save corruption is gone that's definitely the kind of thing you fix immediately)
Also... I can imagine being a dev, looking at the mess of code with one teeny problem somewhere, and thinking 'yeah I'm not dealing with that now, that's a problem for future me'

tiny imp
#

It wouldn't be as bad if it was free lol we spent money on a broken product

#

Especially on launch when the sound of a vulture spawning was a couple pearls falling on the floor multiple times

#

Seriously how did that get passed playtesting?

white phoenix
#

from what i know rain world code is sensible

#

a last minute patch and everything could be broken i guess

tiny imp
#

Lol

vast flicker
radiant coral
#

yea thats very tame compared to data corruption and mll freezes

tiny imp
#

Very tame but it's the most noticeable bug

honest ether
#

The sound corruption

#

It's not entirely fixed iirc. And there are still some inconsistencies.

tiny imp
#

Yeah it's still there

#

Sometimes music will just go out of sync

#

And I don't mean just the threat track

honest ether
#

From my experience it eats up mostly just one core and starts dropping frames when that core is maxxed, not necessarily slowing down though.

radiant coral
#

is the pupyard thing fix?

vast flicker
# radiant coral is the pupyard thing fix?

probably was the answer I got when I asked about it a while ago : )
Except for the shelter closest to filtration which permanently softlocks your campaign apparently. So maybe don't use that one!
I'm still gonna avoid pipeyard with pups until all the things are definitely absolutely fixed. Don't wanna discover a new part of the bug noone knew about!

radiant coral
#

i just went through pipeyard as inv with a pup, i could have lost 36 hours of pure painrivflabbergasted

vast flicker
#

That would've been pretty bad! I forgot inv even existed hehe. Yeah probably shouldn't push your luck for now

radiant coral
#

i know i asked this before but im just a very paranoid person, is data corruption gone cuz i want to continue on the ps5 version especially since im almost done with it on switch

tiny imp
#

Yes just play the game dude lol

#

Still recommend using cloud saves if you have PS+

#

Though they did implement something, data corruption is still possible

#

And knowing them, they'll probably not fix it

radiant coral
#

k ty i just dont want hours of my life to just be wiped for nothing and sadly i dont have ps+ cuz its way to expensive for the most basic stuff, someday i will just not now

rough oxide
#

They implemented a local save backup system on PS4/5, in case corruption happens it should recover your save

#

They did not fix the bug causing the corruption however

radiant coral
tiny imp
#

It's not really reliable considering someone had their data corrupted with no way of getting it back

#

Perhaps that's also buggy too

rough oxide
#

Not too surprising, all the console ports are still awfully unstable

vast flicker
# radiant coral k ty i just dont want hours of my life to just be wiped for nothing and sadly i ...

Using a USB is very safe, I recovered my save from it once. I don't remember if you mentioned a reason you can't use USB previously though : )
The corruption is also quite rare in general, I've played for quite a long while now and it only happened to me twice total, so it's possible to just be lucky with it anyway!
I could not find any local backup after the second corruption despite it being implemented by that point I think. Not a clue where that is supposed to be.

radiant coral
#

ps5 version cant be backed up with a usb, i do use a usb for the ps4 version tho

radiant coral
tiny imp
#

Mines work just fine but yeah true

#

Personalized experience

radiant coral
vast flicker
#

Huh didn't know ps5 basically just forces you to pay for something that was previously free if you want a backup.
I didn't care much for ps5 in the first place tho!
I still have the expedition checkmark bug too. Hope that gets fixed I wanna finish apex predator and actually get something for it

radiant coral
#

i hope they announce a patch for consoles on march 28th when they do the live stream for the 7th anniversary of this game

honest ether
#

The super deluxe patch

sly egret
#

Someone please help, my game will not stop crashing whenever I try to enter Shoreline. Like, I'm in the region, only I'm in the karma gate room. every time I try to go further, the game crashes. I've sheltered there, but when i try to go through the pipe, it crashes. Please help; its been like this for about half a week now

#

Also, please try to @ me or reply to my messages, because I won't check it otherwise.

#

I play on switch, by the way

honest ether
#

@sly egret turn off Jolly Co-op in Remix settings.

#

It causes this crash in gate rooms.

sly egret
#

THAT'S WHAT THE ISSUE IS?

#

I always thought that the crashes were caused by other people being slugpups

#

Thank you so much!

honest ether
#

Yeah Jolly Co-op just weirdly breaks the game, which is unfortunate since it does add stuff like playing as any slug you'd like in vanilla campaigns and being a pup

#

It's something that you should be able to just keep on in the background and not be currently using

#

But they haven't fixed it fully so far

solemn sluice
#

For the switch, whenever a shelter failure occurs and I enter a room that's flooded, the game crashes 😦

#

The game is just like "I give up"

radiant coral
honest ether
#

I'm waiting on them to fix the Pipeyard shelter crash so that I can finish my nearly complete secret campaign

#

Most malicious crash ever condured by man.

#

Save lock.

radiant coral
honest ether
#

My mistake was using the shelter just before the Filtration gate. Literally could've just skipped it and gone to the one inside Filtration.

#

The last shelter of the campaign

#

A pup spawned inside of it, and so I tried to sleep there with it

#

Maybe I could edit my save to change what shelter I spawn at, since I recently hacked my Switch and have already tinkered with modding the game

#

60fps patch works very well

#

Overclocking CPU resolves most laggy areas

radiant coral
radiant coral
honest ether

No I haven't tried anything custom

I suppose it probably wouldn't be too bad to try, but then again anything custom code related probably won't work.

radiant coral

if u do i would love to know how that goes lol

honest ether
#

If mods can work with the unofficial Android port then they probably can with Switch. Maybe PS4 too since that has a little bit of a modding scene too.

radiant coral

if any mod i would love to have the clown long legs mod just for fun, will make going in ||the rot|| more fun when i do it again on the ps5 or ps4 version

PS5 game mods don't exist atm iirc.

You can mod PS4 games on PS5 though, I believe.

Playstation, for some odd reason, has a bug that corrupts your save

near hearth

Is there any way to undo it?

tiny imp

The latest update was supposed to add a way to prevent your save from going bye-bye. However, they didn't say how to access it whatsoever if it can even be accessed

#

From what we know, there's no way to undo it

Even when the update launched, data corruption still happens and gave no way to get it back, essentially lying to us probably

i've been having somewhat consistent freezes in GW, spearmaster's campaign, in or near rooms featuring the Long Legs family (specifically GW_C9, GW_B05, and GW_E01)

#

sleeping in the shelter in C9 has resulted in an almost guaranteed freeze about 20 seconds after waking up, that i can only escape by setting up a pole climb fast enough to go out the top left exit

radiant coral

probably cuz a mll is in the room

hearty merlin

oh, is that a known buggy enemy in the console ports

radiant coral

since day 1 on consoles yea

hearty merlin

i can't imagine why it'd be the MLL specifically that causes the crash. like, it doesn't seem to be that different from the other longlegs? other than being bigger

idk why either or when it will get fixed, if it gets fixed at all
