we have gotten to the infinite drop pod four times today
@rustic spoke does he have any "files" in his GTFO folder as it can prevent people from loading into a map or it will just automatically kick them
@somber bone hmm what files exactly?
does he have files that dont come with the base game
I dont believe so, he just installed it today
tell him to verify all his files and that could fix it on steam
it might of not downloaded every file
so verifying should fix it
yeah we tried that, didnt work unfortunately
he can load in with my other buddy also but when my other buddy and myself try to the furthest we get is to the infinite drop pod screen
so I think its something network related but idk what
whats his version of the game e.g
early access v0.56
cortex NI R:L0 21989
should be at the bottom right of his screen
that will probably help more
ill load in game and itll be fine and then one person will be invisible
ill leave the game and rejoin and itll fix that but then i cant interact with anything
im assuming its due to my bad internet and this game being p2p
queues frames
You set it based on your CPU speed. This option is mostly there for weaker CPU's that do not have the speed to rapidly process graphics like gore and a lot of projectiles being fired
Decreasing it allows for a more spike free experience, but you cap your framerate pretty hard with it because there is not much headspace for rendering
Hi everyone, I bought the game a few months ago and still can't play for a minute, constant error: Network error. it doesn't matter which provider I'm trying to connect through. What to do? Reinstalling the game does not bring results, and even trying it on several PCs
If you confirmed it's not ISP related, did you edit any configurations/ports/IP's on your Network Card/Router?
Can you show us a screenshot of the error including the bottom right corner
Can you screenshot the entire screen?
Oh, do you perhaps use WiFi?
It looks that way based on the fluxing return numbers
Did you by any chance modify network settings?
I play shooters without any problems on wi-fi. What network settings are you talking about?
no, just a regular antivirus
okay
do not understand
did you do what everyone tells anyone; restarting, reinstallingor verifying the game files?
several times
That's because you are using the Beta version - see hte bottom right
.t steam

You need to purchase the Early Access version from Steam
@rustic spoke I have the same problem on my game, I can play on my own but anytime I try to play with my friends I am invisible or cause other players to de sync I guess. And then we can’t start it but without me, they can start it, so if you can figure out how to fix it please let me know, I tried emailing GTFO support but in 2 weeks haven’t gotten anything back. Tried uninstalling 5 times also verifying files, everything checked out but still won’t work. And I don’t have a cheap computer or bad internet
what did I buy then? )) thanks for the information
You are trying to use the Beta version which was available during the Summer/Fall of 2019. It stopped being playable when GTFO released in December of 2019
was beta sold?
understood, thanks
it would be ripoff if beta users had to pay again
Beta was free
ok
if my memory serves me, I bought it, but at that time I thought that the servers were not available
I don't think this problem has been reported yet, so I encourage that you look at #bug-reporting on how to collect the log data from your game.
@mild dew Hmm that sounds rough but that's a little different from my problem. My problem is with a certain two friends preventing the game from starting either in the lobby or at the pod drop (causing an infinite pod drop loading screen). Then once he leaves with Alt+F4 the map loads right away. lol XD
Two weeks and you have not heard anything? damn I put a bug report in and was hoping for a speedy reply. lol
yeah, i mean right now the games unplayable for me and i dont want to refund becuase ive been weatching this game for a while and was very excited to play it with some friends but i cant, @rustic spoke
Vacation just ended so im not surprised if things have to restart
Yeah I hear ya, the game is solid. I told my two friends to wait. Hopefully it can get fixed.
and i didnt report it as a bug i guess just becuase it seems more a technical issue than a game bug but that could just be me being stupid
but i did email support and told them everything so just waiting on that
I gotcha
and it seems to just be a me issue, whenever i connect to anyone elses game thats when it happens and then everyone experiences it. without me game works perfectly fine for everyone
we played yesterday fine
I am pretty sure it has something to do with the game since my buddies and I play a ton of different games together and have zero problems.
i mean i know its with the game, cus i play games everyday with friends too
never hade an issue i couldnt fix before
The only issues we ever had that I can recall is when Rainbow Six Siege went into Beta and it had some issues with the lobby servers. That was patched though and it was Ubisofts problem.
lol yeah i play a lot of siege
but siege is mostly serevr issues
idk of many game issues like this one where it affects seemingly random players
yeah it's so weird tbh
in any game
we have no clue why
yeah its definitely odd
do you know the specs of the peoples computers its affecting
curious if we have something ion common
yeah they are not bad pc's at all
brand new asus gaming laptop
i have an ASUS MoBo
i9 and 3080 for one, 5900x with a 2080ti for the other buddy
on a 2060 i believe here
damn ur buddy was able to get a 3080
yeah and i have an overclocked 1660 super and ryzen 3600x
how do you send your log files?
gonna get a 3070 when they are avaliable
check #bug-reporting
If you know what im talking about when I say CLI file navigation follow the hard way
ty @mighty cipher I am gonna send that to my friend and have him do that
im looking at it right now
and DO NOT share log files, they include a bit of sensitive data e.g computer name
only with devs or people you really trust
so i dont remember the date if i load up gtfo then reproduce it wil it work when searching today?
alright ty
@mighty cipher
the game starts logging by default
so you can reproduce your problem and when you believe you aren't playing a game, you can close it
ok thank you
no problem, just type here again if things aren't going as planned
@mighty cipher where should i paste the link?
Dont
in the bug report
Oh
Add it to the description
they have an attachments tab but icant put it there so should i just paste the link in teh description
okay
ty
No prob
is there a way to invite the host back to the session?
the game crashed for the host...and we have no way to get the host back
Does anhyone know how to fix it? The issue is: Wherever I walk there is a cone that instead of things getting more vissible its gets darker. Its like the game is casting a shadow infront of me. It doesnt go too far, maybe 5-10 ft.Does anhyone know how to fix it? The issue is: Wherever I walk there is a cone that instead of things getting more vissible its gets darker. Its like the game is casting a shadow infront of me. It doesnt go too far, maybe 5-10 ft.
Also Whenever I look at lights there are pixelated black circles that surround the lights and get smaller as i come closer
That action was successful. 
ive seen this once at my brothers pc. a fast restart had fixed it
@vague silo Its happened to two computers for me. Completely separate set ups. And I cant get it to ever work right. Its the only reason I dont play this game. It becomes unplayable because in certain areas I cant see anything, and walking around there are so many false and Pixelated shadows that I can't see whats right in front of me! I dont get it!
do you know what motherboard he has? im trying to get repro steps and if he has a asus strix motherboard try getting him to go into task manager and close gamefirst iv, it's a background program.
had the same issue with a friend and we thought it was our network but it wasn't
@smoky jasper he has a strix mobo, I'll tell him to give it a try
@weak hawk do your setups meet the min requirements or have the graphics settings set too high/low?
Anyone getting a unable to connect message?
Nvm, just had to let it sit for a few mins
Try to host a private lobby with friends but only 1 out of 2 are able to connect to each lobby
can anyone help me out?
Is everyone on the same version? Your version is located bottom right.
Not that number, it should be 5 numbers
21989?
Yes
Okay the person who's having trouble have them exit discord and try to join your lobby
@edgy spruce did that help?
haha internet go brrr
"Network error: no connection" pops up when me and my friends start the game and can't play it. Any ideas?
yeap im getting the same thing
Seems like the servers are dying or smth
😦 unluko
getting the same thing, prob just server issues w steam
twitch is broken too
yep, getting the same stuff
not that its related
steam seems to be just fine

All network connections are steam.
workign now 😄
There was an issue with an upstream providers upstream provider that has since been resolved.
Open your GTFO folder and create file named steam_appid.txt after that you must write down this numbers there 493520 then save and exit, after this error must disappear
@sacred bear I mean I got a 3080 and a 10 series i9 lol. and my last set up (completely new system) had an i7 and a 1080ti
i have a 1070 that runs at 80-90c and it doesn't care at all
thought Id see if anyone else has this issue
here are my specs for reference:
i7 6700k
GTX 1070
32 gb ram
For some odd reason I get jittering in the menu and very rarely in-game. But for some reason I can fix it by changing one of my graphics settings without even confirming the change
Not really a huge trouble. And my frames say they are 100+ when it happens. just strange
its sans undertale
SANS
All hail plankton
Gtfo wont stop running...
I might have to restart my computer
No clue man
Not on my task bar
Found out the issue
It's a steam problem
Fixed already...
Im experiencing weird frame issues only in gtfo that have never happened before
freezes?
game claims 100 FPS but feels like 20
have you fiddled with your video settings?
yh
60
In advanced video settings
you can set the target framerate to 60
because your screen won't display any higher
anything above 60 anyways you won’t see
you got a good GPU?
1660 ti
set CPU Culling Workload to small
and max out render queue frames
and disable Vertical Sync
once you done all that I usually proceed to test the framerate
tell me if you are finished
still having a seizure
You had your PC restarted?
oh
you moved it from hdd to ssd?
cuz then remove and reinstall should do
hdd uses old tech over the ssd
hows it going?
Best bet is to reinstall it
try common solutions first before going full on technical
Hey peeps. I'm trying to play this awesome game but I can't seem to get it going. I can start it up and it will sometimes stop on a red screen. Other times I will get to the first screen where your discord and disclaimer are and I can click to get injected, then it will freeze. I was able to start it up the first time and get to the main menu, I changed some video settings, then restarted like it recommended. After that first time, all I get is the freezing. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, updated drivers. I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB. Could I just not have a good enough GPU? I'd love to be able to play 🙂
Does A1 only have 2 bulkhead keys? if soo then our game soft locked by placing both keys behind the bulkhead doors.
can you find a terminal and list bulkhead_key
yea and i queried both. one in 61. and one in 36
nvm, i just realised the doors to 36 isn't locked behind the bulkheads
now I understand why the map could look like this
something would cause the player to teleport from 148F to 150D then quickly return
gtfo using 7gigs pf ram on my pc is it normal?
This is a problem I'm having for awhile. I'm unable to start a run with my group of friends. I can't see their load outs and bodies and they can't see mine. I tried reinstalling the game but it doesn't work. I tried closing discord before starting run but still doesn't work. What can I do?
Do you run a beta version of the game?
@unique turtle do any of you have an Asus strix motherboard or Tuf? There’s a program called gamefirst iv that messes with networking and makes it so p2p games don’t work. All you have to do is turn it off through the task manager
nones answered my question yet but I need help figuring out why it is my screen seems to reset/crash everytime i try to get to setting or anything else
it flashes and then freezes. If I AM able to get into a game, I lag reaaaaally bad
Your computer matches #system-specs ?
@smoky jasper Thank you so much.
did that fix it?
nice
again thank you so much
my settings exceed it
like everytime i go to anything along the top of the screen my screen flashes off and on until it freezes
I found a work around for this problem. It's no permanent fix, so you'll have to do it every time you start up GTFO, but you just go to your Resource Manager and see if GTFO.exe is Suspended, if so, right click and select Resume Process, and it should continue! Hope this helps! 😄
sooo. I am not sure where to post this but me and my crew just went through A1 extreme, beat the terminal verification and on our way to pick up the last two hard drives my game stops letting me interact with any and all doors, lockers, and see the result of enemy deaths (like I DC'ed) but the biggest cuck of all is when I finally backed out of the mission to rejoin when we were waiting on the extract (because it hit 100 and did nothing) it gave the other three a clear and I missed out on the credit. unfortunate indeed.
Its ok because I know I cleared it and I feel successful, but I did want to report the bug.
true unexplainable magic
the ammo pack is just spanish
This is just a visual bug, right? (and im guessing its already known)
and I mean the PE req
bug

yea visual bug
if you get the high and extreme , restart the game and it should fix itself
worked for me at least
disclaimer: this is a purely theoretical question for curiousity's sake
is it possible to get the IP from the other players in a lobby, since this is a p2p game? Or is that well-protected, aka you'd have to go through quite the hoops to get it and may not be able to access multiplayer if you do modify you gamefiles to allow that?
...anyone know what is this...? it appear out of nowhere and block half of my screen for like 10min
Oh you have to restart it to make it go away
This bug has been here for ages (but I haven't seen it myself)
Yeah lol
it happens time to time
Not possible
good to know, thanks D0c :)
im getting an connection error when starting the game is it because i dont have the actual game because my game name contains GTFO beta
dude i need some help. i got a bug? The mouse moved by itself, it moved up and on like a balloon. i thought if I start the game it might disappear the bug. but it worst my cha is continually move forward a little bit by itself. i try to restart my pc, fixfile and reinstall but it not help. someone can help me?
You need to buy the EA version of the game now, the beta has been closed for a year now
Anyone get this?
And any reason why when you join a friend in a game, youll hear an error alarm even tho there shouldnt be any
is he playing with a steering wheel?
Do you not play with a steering wheel?
It’s level dependent
If the level has an error alarm in it it will cause the audio to play for it when it’s not active
I get that visual bug sometime when I play
Thanks
Btw @smoky jasper , if youre interested in gameplay, its posted on youtube of the steering wheel

I and someone else discussed A1 with ddr mat
why i see all double when starting the game
there is nothing double on your screen?
alrighty
there is nothing double, regardless of how close I look.
2 possibilities
a) check your eyes
b) check your resolution settings
The shadow effect is a part of the aesthetic of the game
if the resolution is lower than your pc can do it looks weird and desynced.
with the optimal resolution settings the shadow effect is part of the aesthetic and looks really nice btw
Zoom in on the red matchmake button
ah that
as our favourite doctor said
the shadows move depending on where ur mouse is
so if u move your mouse onto the matchmaking button it should not be very doubl-ey anymore, but rather just a normal button
and this is a feature that can't be turned off ?
I looked for it, don't know if it's possible
when this is for the aesthetic of the game and can't be turned of uff
Never have problem with that shadows. Wont happen in game anyway
you don't have to matchmake at all
you can just invite your friends to your lobby
via steam invites or lobby code
yes you must purchase the game
i bought it
With my computer science itches over the current times of the infection, I was working on a project that currently resides in a separate program that reads states, to operate events on certain events in game. (Such as enter a new level, whether your in menus etc). Main reasoning for this was to implement discord rich presence! And while it works (relatively) fine, there are many reasons you dont want a secondary program reading states from a program to execute stuff (Security and Stability 101!) - although my experience with il2cpp is relatively basic, from my understanding a clear section of memory will exist as either a varying data store (from unity) or windows allocation extending the application; Essentially I want to ask - are the dev's ok with my prodding around the backend of the game, because it is a game full of secrets after all, and b) is there any open spaces in memory that I can "quote and end quote" hijack?
Again just to reiterate, I completely understand if the Devs don't like me prodding around the backend of the game - especially with the whole immersion the game is going for!
That's considered modding the game which isn't permitted. We do recognize people want to mod the game to do various things from making their own rundowns, implementing rich presence, or otherwise. Hopefully in the future we can enable that type of functionality. As a side note we are looking into adding rich presence officially.
server down for us too
Ah must be steam then
Probabibly steam maintenance
back up. damn in the middle of a good run though lol
Tuesday steam maintenance day :D
Ahh ty
np, it's also regular so keep it in mind while playing
Hey guys,
I have an #issue what is my pc is get a black screen and the gpu vent goes to max. So I can’t do nothing but restart the pc.
This happens randomly while I play on gtfo.
Any idea guys?
does it truly happen randomly or is it tied to something ingame?
and if it's the GPU - does it fullfill minimum requirements for the game? If yes, try putting graphics settings to the lowest u can and try it for a while to see if it still happens
Check #system-specs if your PC matches with the minimal specs
Yea it’s matches. In high settings with 100-130 fps so
Updated drivers?
does this issue only happen in GTFO or also other games of similar potential graphic-quality?
that's important too, yeah
After work I have to check my updates thanks for the advice
ight
By any chance
do you have a Radeon card?
And yes with doom eternal the same happened
Yes radeon rx 580 4gb
aha
then I fear it might be your GPU - is it old (in a way)?
ah yeah that is NOT for highest graphics settings
try if u can play more smoothly with lower settings
Radeon cards eat a lot of wattage power, that causes black screens
That should fix the issue with every game
or get a better PSU
Wow
I have a 600w psu
I built a gaming PC for someone with 600w psu and a radeon vega 5600 card
exact same issue
Dammn
Should I re-paste the gpu?
you can
but it won't fix power hungryness
It goes about 75c sometimes
In radeon adrenaline you might be able to do some power lowering
im not super familiar with the software
Mmm gotta check it
Thanks!
no problem, happy gaming
Overclock may help?
no
I dont know what is that lol
oc is making it worse
Nice
let me search a chart from hardware unboxed
that shows what I mean with power consumption
Thanks
So I should buy a better psu
Or a nvidia card
I suggest a 700-750 w psu with atleast bronze efficiency
Yea I want to upgrade my card soon
ohh
if you want to upgrade the card go for that
I run my gtx 1060 with a 550 psu
And no problems like mine?
no problem
Nice
only thing I can think of is when I kicked my case once
and everything froze
Oh yea thats can be 😬
Thank you guys!
Im about to look for a better gpu and a psu.
might wanna wait with the gpu since all basement dwellers are buying them up for their bitcoin miners
bitcoin is on a nose dive course to low prices so changes are gonna happen soon
Nice, thanks
BUT there is a rgb power supply you might wanna look up
from corsair
Corsair CX750F
Hmm I’ll look after it
Thanks!
no prob, hit me up if theres anything else
Sure, cya
anyone else get stuck on the matchmaking screen?
where you goto search for a match? just gets stuck on that screen and have to force close game?
Are you not forwarded to the lobby screen after searching for a match?
hello i want to report a player called t23are for cheating inside the game
You will need to contact/message @rose thicket provide as much information as possible such as, screenshots, videos etc. and they'll handle it from there.
Hey - anybody else having an issue whenever they open GTFO settings it crashes the game?
Hey -anybody else crashing at r2b2
R2
R2
My man talking to us from the past
man i just got the game couple days ago
Any chance you mean R4B2?
Anyone else had a bug were a certain player color is lagging, i joined a lobby as purple and i was having a bad connection. everyone else was fine and they say the previous purple player was also lagging. I normal have excellent connection to host.
I've been getting massive lag- whole game freezes for a good 4-5 seconds. Unsure if it's just D2 and other big maps because of loading enemies etc; or a memory leak from playing for a long time. Anything got anything similar, or recommendation on what settings to turn down?
oh now im not dying, re-initializing to the host via exit game and re-join seems to fix it
Hey I'm having a super weird issue. I've played about 2 hours in the game and absolutely love it. However, now when I launch the cage drop my PC crashes every time right at the start of the cutscene. I had zero issues in the previous 2 hours and all other games still run normally on my PC. I've verified files and done a fresh install. I've also dropped all graphics settings just in case. I couldn't find an email send this to, so sorry for the long post. TLDR: Game crashes PC at Cage Drop cutscene
I've had the same issue and for me. But i deleted discord and reinstalled it and it fixed. Though i don't know if that will work for you,you might as well try
huh weird...worth a shot I guess🤷♂️
I can't point my finger to a solution either. First check if you have updated video drivers and if your PC specs match #system-specs. If a driver update doesn't resolve the issue it is a unknown bug and can be reported to the devs. Follow instruction on how-to in #bug-reporting.
Ok, yeah I'll report it. I've tried everything I could thing of on my end including drivers. Thanks for your help. I did try the Discord reinstall but that also didn't help but thanks for the idea @mighty cipher
Alright,well good luck to you anyway
is the controller mapping giving anybody else issues?
Hey so I need some help with an issue I'm having for the game. I can't hear ANY of the new sound effects for bulkheads or objectives. But i can hear every of the old sounds fine whats up with this? I've verified my files and reinstalled the game and still no sounds
What's going on with it?
hmm, try deleting \GTFO\GTFO_Data\StreamingAssets then verify the files again
@supple orchid delete delete or just recycle?
either one
Server down?
i seem to be having the same issue as well, are you having the network error as well? @full aspen
weird, my friends however are still plyaing as we speak, i thought it was just me
Yep, even tho steam servers look fine
they hopped in earlier than i did though, they went in i think 45 minutes before and it seemed to be working still
no matter how many times i restart my pc however, it doesn't seem to be working
they seem to work now
The Steam store does not work properly either.
my game works now
it's working for me as well now
Does the developers know about how you cant hear the error alarm waves spawn in on certain levelos
which levels
you can't hear every second error alarm on A2, as the sound plays every 40 seconds but the waves spawn every 20.
and yes, I am fairly certain the devs know of that - it has been discussed plenty of times :D
Yo I can't see my friend in the lobby screen. It's on the brain indicator. Any suggestions?
He's restarted the game
Verified game files
and restarted steam
Your PC matches #system-specs and confirmed there are no network issues in your end?
Can you try having everyone close the game, exit out of discord, relaunch the game, create the lobby, and then try and drop down. if it lets you drop, then once you land try and open discord again.
there's a pretty consistent issue where people with asus strix/ tuf motherboards come with gamefirst iv, who ever has that needs to close it from their task manager or change the settings within it.
it's an issue with networking
I'm the friend and that worked thanks!

Anyone experiencing massive lag in game? Like all the enemies stand still and your team can just run around freely, the "curse" only broke when a door got destroyed after having been reinforced a second time with a foam grenade
This is desync, mostly happens when you have a bad connection with the host; try changing host
it might be the large amounts of fog, as none of the A levels have quite that amount.
Pretty weird still - did you try lowering your game settings?
Also does your pc/laptop fulfill the #system-specs ?
@wispy barn sorry for tag but didn't work
we tried both ways but didn't work
Me & my friends can't connect to eachothers lobbies, like we accept the invite but the lobby is empty & even when we tried to start a game, it kicked one of us out
we can't play together, this is my second time playing this game. first time it was fine but this time we can't play
my friend doesn't have the gamefirst iv software so i don't know what to do. I spent $40 on this game for me & my friend so please help whenever
Can you play other p2p games?
i believe we figured it out, he's in college rn so we believe it's his college wifi. before he went to college, we could play other games such as gtfo & now he can't
we tried 3 diff games we used to be able to play before he went to college & he can't play them now so pretty sure that is why
A lot of corporate/college networks block a lot of network traffic to increase security. It's also a nice way to block students of gaming during class. If you want to play any game on WiFi you must be certain that the network is not configured in line with a policy (e.g home network doesn't have port blocks, but a computer science room with WiFi may have some roadblocks to prevent hack attempts)
Hay so... I found out you can't play GTFO in windowed mode.
It completely glitched my game out to the point of actually breaking it.
And now I can't go back to main menu because whenever I reload the game it just says I don't have an internet connection, when I clearly do.
If you try clicking within the window and change settings while windowed to a smaller resolution it literally won't let you change settings.
It just forced me click out of the window several times.
The only way I fixed it was by literally reinstalling the game. Just letting ya'll know, that's a big ass bug.
hmm, is E1 supposed to be greyed out still 
also @icy edge chances are if you reinstalled it, its a download corruption. So thats on steam and your internet, not 10C x)
all it takes is one bad bit somewhere to break stuff
and maybe that one bad bit was in the windowed libraries
(windowed mode is working fine for me in any case)
No, it was literally working fine before. It didn't do any of that until I windowed it.
Try moving the window and clicking back into it, it glitches the hell out.
@wraith grail E1 will be greyed out because you've yet to complete D2 that's the only reason.
I was playing in B1 with 4 friends when halfway through, I was no longer showing as in the game for one of them, but was still showing as in-game for two. While I was carrying the fog turbine, it didn't clear out fog for the friend that was unable to see me
Just joined an A2 game where the only enemies that spawned were mothers and tanks. So many enemies in the game that all of the AI bugged out completely and essentially never moved. All of my game files are unchanged but I wasn't the host and I'm not sure if they can affect other players' games or not assuming they had done something.
This is due to someone in your team using mods/hacks, please report as much information such as, screenshots or videos to @rose thicket and the mod team will sort it from there.
is the host dallas
cuz I met dallas two times (A1, C1)
he's the host
the spawn of sleeping sleepers are abnormally high
I reported him once
yep Dallas was the host. Purple disconnected before the game started while blue and I stayed in just because it was so absurd. Never seen anything like it
sure sounds like he is hacking.
I'd argue that, as it isn't a natural modification of the game but a edited version - only he has it modified, no one else - he is hacking, not modding.
But even modding is not ok with this game as of yet.
I had a game with him that I recorded it mid game
I had another game like an hour ago with recording I am uploading it to youtube to send it to mod contact
please do
the fact that in the alarm wave practically nothing spawns and the door immediately busts
why the fuck would someone hack like that, it doesn't even make sense
Please let’s move on from this conversation, if you wanna report someone do it through @rose thicket.
fine by me :)
Thank you.
this bug still exist?
I had this happen a few days ago. I think someone else managed to come up and use the computer which let me move again
Also just had the same experience as earlier. C2 at the first door and the enemies spawned were all tanks. I hosted a lobby with just myself and all the enemies are normal. Is there a way to guarantee I'm the host so this doesn't happen or can other players affect spawns even if they aren't the host?
other players shouldn't be able to affect spawns when they are not the host.
You really have to know which players to avoid - 99% of pugs don't have a modded/hacked experience. That you drew the 1% or 0.5% chance of joining a lobby with the host being a hacker twice today is just extremely unlucky.
Note their names down, get video/picture proof, report them.
Then move on and look for a new room.
You can also always open a group yourself and look for players - it might just take a while. But it ensures you are host.
No worries! It's the first time I've seen it in about 100 hours so it's not a big deal. Just seeing how to avoid in the future. Thank you for the help!
Hi ! A friend of mine cannot get close to ennemies without waking them up. Tried the usual suspects (being bad at stealthing, lights on...) but nothing seems to be off
if his FOV is high it might look like hes far enough but in reality hes quite close
it happened to me for a while
dont feel like it's the problem, we had no issues since we started playing gtfo and now for a week or so, the problem happens every game
whats their FOV?
and he doesn't even need to get that close to the enemy
dose he move when ever they glowing ( i know its a stupid question)
dunno his FOV, but for probably default or close to that
that's not a stupid question 😄
and no, without being veterans, we know how the game works and from one day to another, he hasnt been able to get close to enemies
if he moves when they pumping just even for a bit (0.1 sec of wasd) they get awake
i call that move dareing of the sleepers
is it like insta awake?
nah, he's literally getting closer to the enemies when they're dark. And yes, insta awake
ikr
i let others think about it
my 2 friends and i have no problem
but the 3rd friend literally cannot get close to enemies so you can imagine stealthing is tricky 😄
pretty weird it started happening all of a sudden
but thanks for your input, rey
we'll give the reinstallation a go and see how it goes 🙂
Does he have a controller or something plugged in
he possibly does @south tusk Are you thinking about a bug? or an input that might wake up the sleepers? Just to clarify, he would literally stand next to them when they're not glowing and they would wake up instantly
Are private servers a thing? The main group I play with is spread out between Europe and the Americas
@minor nymph the game is peer to peer, so so a lobby is private so long as you don't share the lobby code with anyone or you don't invite/they don't join you from your steam friends list
I see. Does it use one player as a host or is everyone connected to each other equally?
The person to create the lobby is host, others connect to them. so try and pick someone that has the best internet/pc connection that is centrally located to everyone.
I understand. Thanks for clarifying that!
The game is saying no network connection. When i have a steady network connection. I tried a uninstall/reinstall. But the error message still shows.
Network connection will only come up if there is a problem with Steam. So it's the servers for steam you just have to wait.
Okay, thank you.
2 questions - Mainly seeing what I can do to raise performance for GTFO.
1: What is the "CPU Culling Workload" Option and what does it do?
2: What is the "Max Render Queue Frames" and what does it do?
Mainly asking because I want the maximum performance for my game.
1 - Controls the ratio between CPU/GPU
2 - IDK but 1-2 works best for me
So a higher setting on the CPU Culling WorkLoad would use more of my GPU?
2 - I believe this is the amount of frames it pre loads based on what is happening in game.
My question is, what option would be the best for maximum GPU usage
on the "CPU Culling Workload"
1: Higher = more GPU workload for your CPU. Set lower the better your GPU is, so your CPU can do more things. 2: A option for weaker GPU's. Set lower to possibly prevent screen tearing and higher to increase performance if your GPU can handle it.
I've got a question that I've had a lot of trouble finding examples of online. My friends and I are trying to host a lobby and three of us have no problem but our fourth friend is having all kinds of issues. When he joins we can see his name, but not his weapons, or we can see weapons but they're not his and it will say machine gun for every slot. Then when he readies up we can't actually start the game. It makes the sound like we're starting but nothing happens and we're all still in the lobby menu. The same thing happens when he hosts the lobby. He's disabled his firewall, reinstalled the game, tried deleting the GTFO_Settings.txt, tried using an Ethernet connection, updated his drivers, etc. The only time we got it to work was when he downloaded the game on his laptop (he's using a brand new built pc and all other multiplayer games we've tried have worked just fine) . Then the game worked just fine. Does anyone know how we can fix this?
@rugged elk does he have an Asus motherboard?
@wispy barn um lemme ask him real quick
Hey guys, my friends and I have been loving the game! One thing that keeps stumping us though is that alerting enemies seems very inconsistent, specifically when we kill them silently, enemies that we thought were far enough away will wake up, and sometimes they just seem to wake up on their own when we aren't moving. At least one of us uses a controller so maybe that might be the cause of the latter issue? In any case, is this an issue or is there not something we're aware of? (we know that we shouldn't move when they glow)
Sometimes desync can cause problems with the lighting and pulsing of enemies, a good tip for stealth is using your flashlight to quickly sweep across enemies before hitting another one. (this can still not work all the time but is a more consistent way to clear stealth)
Personally, I've noticed that enemies will alert if they are facing the ones you have killed sometimes if they are just beginning to glow themselves. Desync is usually the issue when it comes to enemies that aren't glowing alerting to something.
Cool thanks for the info. Are there any network debug views by any chance that we can use just to keep an eye on things?
Alright he responded, yes he has an Asus motherboard.
have him exit out of the GamerFirst IV app.
Alright he said he's doing that now. Is there anything else he needs to do?
Alright Coolio. I'll let you know if it works. Thanks for your help!
It works now!!! Thank you so much
So playing B1 With a squad of 3. Note that we've played this level multiple times before with no issues and have never had this issue prior in the game either.
It started out with one of our squad noticing that his in-game audio had suddenly cut out almost completely and he could only hear his character's footsteps. Not long after this affected another teammate and, in the ensuing chaos after causing aggro as a result, they couldn't even hear their own gunfire. After the engagement ended and I tried entering another room while they messed with their audio settings, my audio also bugged out; I could only hear footsteps, my flashlight turning on and off and my character's dialogue.
Going into the audio settings remedied this slightly, but the audio was still rather messed up; a Big Striker on the far side of the room sounded as if he was the same distance as a Big Shooter only 5m away from me. The "fixed" audio then cut out again soon after. As we're questioning whether to just quit the level and reload, the teammate who first had the issue had his game freeze up and eventually got "GTFO.exe is not responding". I then tabbed out (admittedly not wise) to check if this was in the known issues or if anyone else was having the same issue and then, tabbing back in, my game also froze and crashed completely (I actually had to sign out of Windows and back in just to force close it as it would not let me tab out of the GTFO Window). About a minute, the final teammate also crashed.
We're now just verifying the integrity of the game files, but it still seems a bit weird considering we've been through the level 4 Times already (the last time was last Thursday; edit, nevermind I'm an idiot and can't read dates) and never experienced this at all.
Pretty normal but I’m B1 at this point, all the in-game sounds happen all at once so you lose the sound. Cashing is the final step of that bug.
hi i just did the rundown A2 extreme difficulty with 3 other poeple and they all have the mission done but i dont.. i was playing with faceyourbass, mordekay and bappo no fraggo
Wait, does GTFO have lightfx integration? Or is it just upcoming? 👀 I can see the library file
wanted to use opusscript to enable some special features of my headset but I just saw it x)
make sure your speaker settings are set up correctly
is this normal ?
Looks like an issue with the fog system, had this happen a few times.
restart the game and its fixed
ok ty i thought it had to do with the mental status thingy
i have been having problems with staying connected with people like i connect to the lobby and then everyone just disappears but is says waiting for cage drop.
loadouts will say machine gun and the white glow in the background but no character
we found a fix of restarting computers. classic.
@hybrid trellis its a networking issue that isn't the games fault. a common cause is having an asus strix MB that has gamefirst iv on it.
why is punctuation disabled in chat?
Fixed game crash caused by HTML formatting. Note- This will prevent typing <, >, = in chat
Seems like a kind of hacky solution to be honest, surely there’s a better way to prevent html formatting than just straight up preventing the usage of certain characters
tbh dosent make sense for it to be html
xml I can see, but I cant see gtfo using somthing like webkit xd
or is everything really electron 
I haven't gotten my prisoner efficiency count despite completing it.
That was also the first overload I've done iirc- so it may have rewarded that but not the PE ?
It's a bug
Also a bug lol. Can't really help. It will disappear eventually
this also sounds like a desync issue, but, our group was running into instance where a room full of commons would be alerted once we stepped foot int the room, crouched and w/ lights off
the level had a mother, and one of the babies that we killed failed to properly "die", so, everything below its head was moving, and my character would even respond saying "sleeper, don't make a sound"
whenever I got close
that can happen for multiple reasons, seen it happen with chargers and normal sleepers behind blood doors (mines killing them the moment they spawned bc mine decided to set off through the door bc it was too close)
they are just standing there, menacingly
last week we ran D1 repeatedly and we had a lot of instances where light sources would disappear at bridges and areas inside the apex door section for at least two people until we jumped or moved around. It feels like it's somehow related to a lot of fog+different light sources in that level
after like 50 tries at C3 PE, i made it to the end, but just as we finished extraction, one of my teammates starting lagging out (both in game and on Discord, we stopped moving for him, and he couldn't hear us on Discord).
he becomes invulnerable and we have like a hundred chargers beating him...then he finally drops out and we get the mission failed screen
Unable to join friends lobby, keeps saying ‘waiting for master’ then returning me to the rundown
help guys i'm in a middle of a game and I had to leave for a moment, now i can't join any game
even with codes, a friend is hosting and it doesn't show up
^also same problem
ok so it looks it's a host problem, i tried joining another one and i could
it was in the end of C3 PE :///////////
one friend just told us if you keep joining/leaving C3 this happens
Is there an admin I can talk to about a problem with the game
@whole moat message mod contact
Hey guys, played GTFO last summer and want to get back into it... Had really smooth FPS way back then but now all of a sudden it's tanked (even in the menu) to almost single digit fps... im running a gtx 1080 and a coffeelake K series i7.
Anyone have the same issues with the new updates? I never saw fps drop once playing this previously...
im going to try and disable v-sync and see how that goes, already tried updating drivers and numerous other methods but no luck yet!
V-Sync can mess up with FPS
just forced vsync off through nvidia and in settings
still sub 10 fps annoyingly... was there a particular thing in this patch that may have caused this that I can troubleshoot?
yo does anyone know why the game will sometime crash while dropping into a level but run perfect after
Also does anyone know why there is so much strain on my cpu with its usage goin up to 90+% but minimal usage on my GPU during cage drop? the only time i have problems witht he game is during the cage drop sequence.
hello, why i cant play or join a hosted room?
Are you copying the code correctly when someone sends you it?
Yes
Does a red box on the left side when in the rundown menu appear?
That probably means either, you're not copying the ID correctly (not saying you are) or the person you're trying to join might need to make a new lobby and send a new code.
oh theyre already p laying. and I cant find hosting a game here..i mean theyre full already..
That's why, you can use the MatchMaking system that's in place or use LFG in this discord to find a group. There's a room called #lfg-beginners which will probably be the best place for you right now since you're new to the game, I hope you enjoy GTFO!
did you hold the button ?
i did
if yes and it didn't work it means that something is wrong in the files
oh dear
or someone did not ready up
so i suggest going to local file
manager and verifying game file thingy
GL
<@&408548765599793173> please can someone look into this one and give some suggestion
The cage drop sequence is essentially the loading screen. Your CPU is maxing out because it's loading the level. It should not be an issue because you don't need performance during this time
do we really have to take that out of the game so ppl stop complaining about it?
bruh
i have no clue as to why, ive noticed that while its loading it will suspend the application and unsuspend it, its very strange.
any clue as to maybe get around it?
As in during the loading of the level you'll sort of freeze?
on and off while experiencing frame lag
that's normal
if i get throught that its 100% fine
but its 80-20 the game crashes on A1-A3 level and after that its guaranteed
how loading screens work is that the computer goes on a loading rampage and trys to load everything most games give you a screen to look at but gtfo gives you a cage drop
whats ur spec?
gpu is gtx 860m latest drivers, cpu is intel core i7 16 gigs ram and running on windows 64 bit
task managers lists the game as suspended when it freezes up instead of not responding
what's ur setting?
everything on the lowest settings aswell as all settings disabled, workload culling makes no difference regardless of setting
as soon as im in game i just set everything back up, assuming it doesnt crash in the loading
Your GPU does not match the recommended #system-specs. Consider upgrading it to enhance your experience.
If you can't upgrade, I suggest you revise your advanced settings and set your CPU Culling to the highest setting and Render queue to the lowest setting.
CPU Culling is a setting that allows you to pass GPU workload to the CPU. Set it higher to allow your GPU to have some headspace.
Render queue is generally the amount of stress you want to put on your GPU. Keep it low to keep the pressure low on the GPU.
talk here if my given solution dont work
ill have to get a new pc then so, thank you for the help
Tune the advanced settings first before settling on buying a new pc
You should also play on a lower resolution @covert jungle. It's the most compromising change you can make to play the game
i have, all of the various options ive mixed and matched and changed
ive set everything to the lowest and went so far as to try luanch on n800x600 both windowed and fullscreen
trust me, nothing works, i can just about get through loading into a1-a3 and b3 but b1 and b2 are a no go
I see, then there is nothing left but to upgrade your gear
its so aggravting though since i can play at 60 fps+ when in game but its just the loading, oh well thx for the help
Most games are now optimised for 10** and up series of gpu's. You can easily run GTFO with peformance over quality settings with a 1050
on 1080p
right at the end of the run it randomly does this, any ideas?
Did you try a reconnect?
ah i used the matchmaker so i don't think i could. pretty annoying since i was about 4ft away from extraction lol
I get 200+fps in-game normally, but when I'm first loading the drop-down I get 30fps. It's completely normal.
Blank map. Does anyone else experience this and have some solution? Basically just re-drop until the map is working. Very annoying.
HI i cant still join people :.
Do you have an Asus motherboard?
im using asus laptop
Check to see if you have a program running called GamerFirst IV. If so, exit out of it.
then try relaunching GTFO and joining the lobby
oh yes its on
exit out of it such as from task manager, should solve the issue
hey @wispy barn it is working, thank you so much..now I can play with team ❤️
Awesome!
Hey guys, played GTFO last summer and want to get back into it... Had really smooth FPS way back then but now all of a sudden it's tanked (even in the menu) to almost single digit fps... im running a gtx 1080 and a coffee lake K series i7. Anyone have the same issues with the new updates? I never saw fps drop once playing this previously..
Already tried disabling vsync both in game and through global settings. I've also updated my drivers. Is there something in the latest patch that could have caused this? like I said, it's been about 7 months since i've played so something in one of the patches must have triggered this.
update
Just uninstalled and reinstalled the game and still no luck... I'm basically getting sub 30fps in menus and sub 10fps in game. Got it installed on my SSD now and granted i'm running it on high settings but I always did before with no issues. I've tried dropping the settings and even lowering the resolution to test it and still no luck.
Verifying integrity of cache didnt work also. As stated it seems to be from this patch and im not entirely sure what could have caused such a drastic drop in performance.
This happens in both single player and when matchmaking.
One very strange thing that i've just noticed is that the performance seems to slowly dip over time. When i start the game the menu (the blog posting one) starts at 400fps and slowly drops from there onwards down steadily to 10fps (about 2 mins from the 400 to 10). It's not suddenly tanking. It drops little by little by increments of around 1-3...
Once again, this happens with no other games in my library...
If there's any other info you need let me know and i'll do my best to get it.
Could you share your CPU/GPU utilization and temperature when you start the game and when it reaches 10fps
cpu is sitting at 40% but just noticed gpu rises steadily to 90%... This doesnt happen with other games and changing settings wont budge the usage
Do you have any applications besides Discord in the background?
huh
What
nah, I just (within the last hour) took my pc apart ad dusted it all too... temps are fairly normal and there's no audible throttling when the fps drop occurs either
nothing really on in the background
when I turn off gtfo, it dips back down to about 5% usage on average
just turned on tainbow 6 and that doesnt even come close to the levels of usage compared to gtfo... weird
rainbow 6*
Siege base mode is super well optimized
Vulkan mode though? Hoo boy thatll eat your pc
tried some other games too
resi 3 on v high settings still only hit 45% usage
cpu hits 40-50% on gtfo... still over 90 on GPU even just when in the game menus
What's your CPU culling setting on?
medium
changing it doesnt seem to make a difference
weirdly the framerate seems to dip lower and lower over time (even beyong sub-10 fps)... i have had the game running in the background and so far it's reached a steady (and blistering) 6fps
there is an option in the setting that can change your fps
Advance video --> Target Frame rate
😞
only put this here as oppose to media cause it seems like a bug or something that triggered it? (all I know is no one was there)
his trying to tell you something but it is normal
this is what happening when I rejoin my friend
they can play like normal
but I'm bugged in here
how can I fix that?
Usually escape/escape or jump/move around fixes the black screen
Potential bug report: Seems that if someone joins a game in progress in A3, they get a permanent (overload?) background alarm in their client. We've had one of our team members join in a few minutes later a few times now and it's happened I think every time: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/903875280?t=0h2m14s from last night
or exiting and rejoining triggers it as well
Also, this was a first with a c-foam grenade, it bugged out on a door and did not spread/trigger: https://clips.twitch.tv/TentativeBlindingAsteriskOMGScoots
Blob stayed in place for everyone after door was destroyed
@rancid bison
Use the #bug-reporting channel to report bugs on stuff in-game.
kk
On B3 Overload, we were doing last Terminal High in Z41. The monsters spawned inside of the terminal room and almost wiped us out. We were disconnected after.
z41 is only three rooms big iirc, so if people left the terminal rooms and occupied every other room, the sleepers would spawn in the terminal room
as for the disconnect I have no idea about that, maybe the host quit and migration bugged out?
Hello everyone, I want to know you removed "Film Grain" from game?
Almost half a year has passed since my last appeal on this theme. Or create option to turn off this ... .
gtfo has been pretty often crashing for me due to unity, is there any way to avoid that issue?
Has this issue been solved yet?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jhcthl0AlQ
Just recently got the game and happening to me. I got one game in with some buddies over the weekend and that was it.
Cant join or make lobbies (even matchmaking wont work)
TIA!
My sister tries to join a lobby. the lobby always gets fucked up and we can't start a match. We have tried portforwarding, getting a public IP for her, resetted the router. deactivated firewalls. Nothing seems to work for her.
any ideas or suggestions?
i played for 2 hour as squad we did Extreme and the player who were with the Bulckhead left the same the bulckhead dissappers ? we could not complete the main obj because the one who carry the bulckhead left the game, we backed where it spawns and it weren't at the orange box, what happens with the bulckhead when the guy with it left the game ? we tried to look in the ground in the place he left too but werent there. is this a bug? just telling my story to get the support
@zenith lava that bug is due to networking, if you have something that limits it try turning it off. things like gamefirst iv are on of the things that limit it and it runs in the background, asus strix MB have them by default or having overwolf you can download that too.
I actually just built my 1st PC using a ROG STRIX MB and a lot of default software was downloaded. I'll deactivate them and see if thats the issue. Thanks!
That was the issue haha, thank you!
this was an issue me and my friends were experiencing for a long time now, and i just had to report it today. When i join my friends lobby, i cant see my body and my 2nd buddy's body. when we all ready for the cage drop, we are'nt together. If there is a known fix for this already i am sorry i didnt see it
@crystal python do you have an Asus motherboard or the GamerFirst IV application running? IF so try turning it off.
i dont have an asus mobo but where do i find the gamerfirst iv?
I see it's the Game First that's having the problem! Thanks for the help!
Glad we got you working now!
Does anybody else run into a problem with their computer and online this seems to happen to asusrog computers where if you run an online game then it makes it unable to connect to the internet
Due to a problem with internet drivers
do you have the gamer first app running?
No
im getting an network error bug and its been happening for 2 days
i havent been able to play and i just bought the game
how does it look?
@old linden
it could be due to a software you're using that limits your networking, take a look above to the last three people and see if it matches what you're having : )
Has any one else encountered some weird issues like drops during the game today?
FPS drops?
Nope the past two games I've been in we've had issues with the doors not opening or the doors opening, but the the visual still shows the door is closed. Then once we cleared the security door we got teleported to the beginning again.
The second game half of us landed down and the other half was apparently still falling
Where you by chance loading into levels over and over again quickly?
Nope I don't believe so.
I know about the issue with the doors not opening.
I'm not sure why you were teleported back to the beginning this only would happen if the host left (this is a bug)
The last one seems to be something with the host. I'd report all of these problems with as much information as possible with video/pictures if you have them. #bug-reporting
First one seems to make sense since our host was apparently looking at the map and then all of a sudden ended up on the rundown screen
The host would only be able to get to the rundown screen if he pressed 'Exit Lobby'
I suddenly started having a weird issue where the moue in game moves up to the right on its own. The mouse is fine outside of hte game.
Do you have a game controller connected?
i didnt see gamerfirst

Might be some other app that’s limiting your network or the other persons
Did you check background running applications?
This'll be due to Steam, so you just have to wait a bit so Steam can sort it on their end.
Shouldn't take too long.
im also have the network connection error problem
me too
Me too
i downloaded this morning and i just played, is it like after i lunching the steam will do staff or after i download it
the steam severs are down as i said in the general chat it will come back up
^
just give it time
if you see somebody have the same problem it means its not from your side
okayy is it in game waiting?
imagine it just releases
devs: oh ya hm steam servers went down and we said ya this is a good time for a update
us: bruh
good idea for the steam sales to update
🤔
its going to come around in another month or so
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM
ive been dealing with this for 4 days
i still cant start the game and its been 4 days
well with 4 days it's certainly a different problem you have
you should check your game version first
anyone got a problem where their game has freezes for a few seconds for seemingly no reason? it runs absolutely smooth and no problems for quite a long while, does that, and then runs normally again
happens around once an hour of gameplay if i had to say
That's probably your CPU overheating or something else in your PC. I had this problem before I upgraded my PC.
Considering heavier games play just fine, I doubt that
Im joining a lobby with my friend but we cant initiate cage drop anyone know why
so are you actually in the lobby
if you are, see if you can reproduce it and make a bug report with repro steps, detail is key.
@old linden try to use this solution where i found in reddit, i dont know if is this fixed my problem or just the steam server helped me. You go try and see if its worked or not
https://www.reddit.com/r/GTFO/comments/fsi1wn/anyone_else_got_network_error_no_connection/fm1mj9o/?context=3
i solved the issue with my lobby if anyone is having trouble connecting to their friends open task manager and see if you have a program called GamerfirstIV and end the task that solved the problem for me
just create a TXT file named steam_appid in your GTFO folder open it and write down this numbers 493520, save it and try then launching the game
@old linden try it maybe will help
hello the text of my game seems to be duplicated is this intentional?
even the menus ect are like it
It’s something you can turn on or off
whats the option i need to toggle?
the hud options dont actually seem to be changing anything, even the opacity. im guessing its supost to be the skewing slider.
even that on 0 it hasnt changed the UI, may be a bug?
Hey, can someone pls help me? whenever we start the game, it keeps freezing over and over and crashes. We are all running 2060 or higher. Any fixes please?
yea its the aesthetics of the game @frigid granite
how does one try and figure out what is wrong with my game that it won't let me play. i've verified my files and still get the bug where half way through a rundown, door bugs and i can't go through to complete the rundowns. happened 3 times, my friends have it completed and i'm nowhere in this game. one friend has walked me through how to send log files to be checked.
Follow the steps in #bug-reporting to have it fixed, I never came across a glitch like that
Check for driver updates and make sure your PC has the latest updates
Hey, thanks for the response. I already have the latest drivers and the latest updates. I have also tried every single fix listed on this website:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/fix-gtfo-crashing-at-launch-lag-shuttering-or-fps-drop/
Mess around with the game settings @mighty cipher
Yeah, tried that too sadly. Messed around with every setting.
Check your GTFO log to see anything off place
Another thing you may wanna try is to disable any hipster features like DLSS, Ray Tracing or HDR in GeForce Experience
Hey guys, I've already submitted a bug report, but I thought I would check here if someone already has a solution to what I'm facing:
I can't play multiplayer. Doesn't matter if it's through inviting friends or matchmaking. I either get stuck in the lobby and never drop or I drop forever without the mission ever starting for real - voice chat works and players report that I'm shown as not ready, character/weapons not visible.
If others leave the lobby when the drop command has been initiated, then the mission starts for real but with me alone.
Has anyone faced and solved this issue?
Have you tried dropping without anything else open? This might be a problem with Discord that some others have faced, try getting into a lobby without Discord open, drop and then open Discord back up.
I just bought the game and have been unable to play. I closed the game to wait for a friend but it refuses to open, cycling in 'Not responding'. The only thing I've been able to do to get it to run is reinstall the game, but after I close it, the next open will do the same thing. I've already reinstalled graphics drivers with DDU. I'm running a Ryzen 2700 and GTX 1070. Any thoughts?
Yes, just tried that. But the same issues persist.
Have you gone into the game files and deleted your settings folder then tried again?
Where is that? Is it C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GTFO?
That is a weird one. I am going to bump this because i am having the same issues.
Just do %userprofile% in your windows search, then app data, locallow, 10chambers collective and a file in there will be called settings
GTFO_Settings.txt?
Yes
Delete that and try the game
On the first try, I got kicked to the main menu, and on the second try, I dropped into the mission, but upon reaching the dropzone, I didn't jump out of my pod. I could see the other guys continuing the mission.
Maybe this is a full reinstall or this is your Internet
Yes. It's probably an internet issue.
I have a buddy with not so good internet and everytime he loads a missions with us, it takes us 5min to drop. When the drop is finished, we stay 15sec in our seat, waiting to get down.
We generally drop without him and he joins us after that. Maybe try that
@dusky geyser its not the internet its the laptop
Oh, I'm beeing followed. I see
Naah im on my lunch break so im looking into chatts to see whats new
Np np, I like when you follow me
Hmmm
Hi got a problem that hasn't been resolved for nearly 7 months. When I install the game it launches fine and I can play with my friends. But after I clsoe the game and try to relaunch it I can only get to the "Launch" screen and then the game crashes. This happens each time I install and reinstall no matter what I delete or if I keep defualt game settings
Your anti-virus isn't blocking the game by chance?
Try this, go to %userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\10 Chambers Collective\GTFO and delete the GTFO_Settings.txt file, then try the game see if that helps
okay
thats a no go
honestly sad cause I really enjoy the time I was able to play it
Hey, I sent a message in here yesterday and I"m still having issues. I've tried the deleting the 10 Chambers collective folder, and it sometimes works, but now it doesn't, I've also disabled all overlays. Can I get any more help?
I have the same issue. I got to play once, but it refuses to work for me now
Cool that it counts up the time I haven't played though so I can't refund it.
@frozen pine Is the hard drive you have the game installed on almost full? I wanted to see if maybe that was a common denominator between us
nevermind, no difference
Not sure if it's a known issue or not (can't find info anywhere on it) but when I was playing for the first time last night the map wasn't filling in. Doors, lockers terminals and stuff would populate but other than that it wasn't mapping corridors and stuff. I just booted it up to take a screenshot but it was working properly lol.
Is this a random bug, or do you think it might be something on my end, and could I help isolate this if it's widespread somehow?
Are you referring to the world deloading bug around doors?
I don't think so, and managed to reproduce it just now, but all I did was redrop into A1 a couple times so I'm not sure why/what is causing it
After playing the game fine for a few months my friend's game crashes either at the end of the cage drop or shortly after. He describes his screen looking sort of like confetti, what he sent me looks sort of like dead pixels all over the screen. We looked at the crash log and he is getting a 0xc0000005 Access Violation error. I was wondering if any of you have had the same issue or could help.
If you're joining someone's lobby the map won't load in, this is a known issue.
huh... but what if I was always host? And it's happening solo^^
Then that is another problem you need to make a report for, make sure to add the reproduction steps
Alright, I dl'ed the log extractor, I'll try to pull it. Not sure on reproduction yet, seems random but I'll report it.
hi, my fps is always low i tried a lot of different things, can someone help out?
From my previous post here is what it looks like
oh my god what is happening
the crash apparently
Could the GPU be dying? I'd update the graphics drivers and see if that solves anything
Is it just GTFO?
I have had similar ish bugs in other games (WoW, Ark) when my older GPU was dying so it could be it
Update your drivers first tho
Hey guys, I had a DC during a game and I can't join the lobby back since Steam had a DC as well, I wonder if switching the host may help to generate another code so I can join, cause currently it's impossible for them to generate any code. Is the run fucked up or I have a chance to get back ? Thanks for the help
@ember thunder We have done that with no luck, have any other ideas?
It's likely gpu is about to die. I've had that on my old 6850. Same exact picture
Also, continuation of my saga, the last part of verbage in my most recent log says:
23:22:28.423 - DropServerManager: Idle
Does that mean something significant? It then shows a hang error in Event viewer for GTFO
@ebon quartz We are playing other games just fine though, and the gpu is 3-4 months old at max
Is it being overclocked? Could be instability
Idk, I have to check with him. We just started having these issues if that helps
@ebon quartz
I would try to remember any changes you my have made then right before the issues started. New hardware, software, an update. Something is messing with the way it currently sits
We did a system recovery before he started having issues
So, like you said I think it is hardware issuse, but would like it to be otherwise
What was the recovery related to? Sounds like something in the rollback could have effected it. Now we have to think about anything different between the rollback state and the state when the game worked.
Have you tried using DDU to reinstall the gpu drivers?
What I mean is we rolled back the PC to when the issues weren't happening
Ah, and it still has issues... Your last bet is DDU then. Do uninstall and restart. It will completely uninstall the gpu driver then restart the computer. Windows will grab a temp driver, then you can grab one from the official site.
Will do that. He is away right now, so I'll let you know what happens with that
With the issue I'm having, I've found that if I delete the 10 Chambers folder in LocalLow, restart my computer, and immediately try to open GTFO, I might be able to open it. Made me think it was related to a startup program, so I disabled all of my startup programs, but it still doesn't start normally. All overlays are disabled and so are all firewalls. Still can't get the game to start normally, so any help would be great...
might be ur game optimization software. it was preventing me from playing online for sure
The hard drive used in just below half full. Interested to hear that some other person has this issue
What would this be/ where could I change it?
gamer AI or what not if u have asus
I had the Asus Tweak II installed but never used it, so I set it to stock and uninstalled but still can't start the game.
@twin horizon i didn't see the 0xc0000005 error you posted earlier. Should run an sfc scan and if possible, removing or changing out RAM. Could be using a part of one the sticks that happens to be bad
Is there a way I can change video settings with a command when launching the game? I want to see if anti-aliasing and v-sync are possibly preventing it from loading. I see in the GTFO_Settings.txt that they are both on but I don't think that's where it reads it's settings from
the settings are read from that file
Oh... Is there no other way to change it outside of that? I still can't get it to boot
do you have gamer first iv from asus running?
you can try deleting the settings file and relaunch game and see if default settings works
I have been using default settings. It stops responding at the initial screen though. I don't currently have any Asus software installed. I tried that last night
It's at the first initial button you press before the opening sequence where you press inject. I can move my mouse for a second to a few seconds where it then freezes (on the game screen, not my computer; I know this because I can alt tab and go do something else) and it goes to not responding
does your graphics card and other system meet the minimum #system-specs ? Is anything spiking if you check task manager when you alt tab?
I'm running a Ryzen 2700 and a GTX 1070 and the game is on a m.2 ssd with plenty of space. I don't think it's hardware...
I've also got 32GB ram
hmm. tried reinstalling?
Yeah, and sometimes it will launch once, but if I close it and try to open it again, it does the same thing. I've tried reinstalling it with all of my startup programs disabled too, one by one. I've done a lot of steps lol
Watching task manager, the game initially spikes on GPU to 30% and CPU to about 25%, but as soon as it starts crashing they drop to 1 or 0%
I can give you any reports or anything you need. Just let me know what you want. I think I have a ticket open to with my username attached to it
I got it to work. I'd like to provide some instructions so that anybody else who wants to try it can. While the game is in a suspended state, alt tab, and open Resource Monitor. In the overview tab, under CPU, find GTFO.exe. There might be two, checkbox all instances, then right click and press resume. It might prompt you asking are you sure, you'll press yes. Go back to your game and it should be working. You may have to do this a few times. I did it three times and was able to get it to successfully boot without it two times after those. I hope this helps somebody else @frozen pine
interesting, nice find. glad it's working
I restarted my computer to see if it'd work, but it went back to not working and needing resource monitor. It's a great temp fix, but I'm hoping there's a permanent solution in the future. Let me know if you guys need anything from me to help you dev's out
hi i have a problem. Me and my friend are just playing the 2 of us, we are doing B1, and we got stuck in the bulkhead key section
it says we need a 3rd member but there is just 2 of us. Is this intentional?
You're saying the scan requires 3 people even though only 2 of you are in the game?
Will try this, will update if anything pans out.
If the host disconnected and me and my friends are still in the lobby without him we just can't open doors and affect the game
can we salvage this game?
I can see my friends moving just we cant do anything since the host disconnected and he cant reconnect
hm, failure to migrate.
make a bug report please, host is supposed to be migrated
I have a red X in the center off my crosshair, does anybody know how to fix this?
I'm sorry
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/711638440097349702/812142787659169792/unknown.png but someone knows what happened?
my friend's screen just turned completely black
but the room had illumination
then he have taken some damage from falling and returned back to normal
Likely the liquid effect. It bugs out sometimes
quiet neko
Alt tab-ing out and then back in resolves some issues. Not sure about that lighting though
if you press your ping bind while dropping that happens
you'll have to restart the game to fix
Thx
Unsure if this is where to post this- but is there a known way of reducing/removing ambient fog from the game?
I have a friend whom I've been trying for a while to get to play GTFO who has an eye condition called "Retinitis Pigmentosa", and he finally came around and decided to give it a go last week, but his condition makes it near impossible for him to play due to the sheer amount of fog in most of the levels.
Obviously, the denser poison fog is fine, he can deal with that but when the ambient fog is omnipresent and the room is slightly dark he finds the game entirely unplayable.
He has however stated that he can ironically navigate from other peoples flashlights better than his own, whether this is a case of first-person visuals of the flashlights being different I don't know, but for sure vision is much clearer when looking at someone elses flashlight on a wall, instead of your own which seems to catch and reflect mostly fog.
Hello everyone,
I need your help please... 🥺
I am currently encountering a problem when launching GTFO, the process is suspended by windows a few seconds after it starts, it forces me to open the resource monitor in order to "resume" the process, then GTFO starts working again except that I have to do it every time I launch it...
The only time that it worked correctly is when I launched the game for the first time, just after a fresh installation of the game (checked the integrity of the files : did not work)
I tried a lot of things : update the nvidia drivers, deactivate all the superfluous in Windows including Antivirus, deactivate the Steam and Geforce exp overlay, firewall checked, launch in admin mode...
If by any chance someone has already encountered this problem and found a solution, I would be very grateful if he could share it 🥲
Thanks by advance and good game everyone 🙂
No fix currently. I discovered the resource monitor fix too.
Thanks for your feedback
No problem man. I understand the frustration of it. I spent 2 hours trying to fix and diagnose
2 hours Steam counter time
one question please Combu : are you tryed to do a full clean uninstall (temp, local profile, registry) please ?
Yeah, I've done that using revo and ccleaner. You can scroll up and see my steps
I even tried a different harddrive
hey, try having him mess with his monitor settings. maybe it would help a bit?
Thank you Combu 🙂
No problem dude
@ebon quartz We fixed the issue with my friends artifacting, we turned all his settings down to low and back up and it is no longer crashing somehow.
Awesome! I'm glad he can play now
Hope you can too soon, I would help if I could. My friend and I aren't very tech savvy unfortunately.
I've got it to a point where I can play. It's just annoying to boot
is it normal that to stuck in the dropping animation forever it have being like 5 minute
@ebon quartz This problem looks quite old since it has been present since end of december 2019 / beginning of january 2020 (I just checked the dates on the steamcommunity post on which I found the resource monitor solution)
Huh, okay. I never saw a post for resource monitor... I wish I had now lol
does any one had troubles with B1 ? game just crushed twice while we were droping in
No difference 😦
do i need to restart my game before it shows credit for pe?(just finished a3 pe and it shows in top right corner, but does not register under the requisites to e level)
Give the game a restart
didnt work
Okay that's a bug, I'd give it a report. #bug-reporting
Hello, is there a FAQ or anything about technical issues? Me and my friends are experiencing some pretty bad desync issues, enemies not dying on their screen, holding guns but not for others, bullets not doing anything etc.
Also, anyone else getting often disconnected from Steam? It has been happening 2 nights in a row. Everyone gets disconnected...
Steams seems to have constant issues these days, specially on the store
but today from what steamstat.us mentions, it's tuesday maintentance
should be fine now 🙂
well i was just about to finally finish b3 with my squad after bashing our heads against it for the entire evening
guess its not gonna happen today
rip, thanks for letting me know its not just on my end
no problem, I'd recommend any time you have a doubt going to the page mentioned, steamstat.us
for some reason, bulkhead audio and audio logs don't make any noise
I tried reinstalling the game but it didn't help
should i just quit trying to play cuz ive been having the same problem for like a week now
