old talon
#

and its worked every time

gray frost
#

@old talon so uninstall, install, open game, close game, go to files, change file, save and it fixed?

old talon
#

thats how it works for me

gray frost
#

@old talon ok ill try

old talon
#

makes you disable steam cloud as well, basically follow exact instructions I gave up there

#

im not IT expert just sharing what worked for me

gray frost
#

ok

wheat yacht
#

Will definitely try

tribal quarry
#

AH i know why it bugged

old talon
#

my psu is acting up so my computer keeps shutting down mid game

tribal quarry
#

we took the blue portal on the 3rd teleporter instead of the teleporter

old talon
#

had to do this fix a bunch

gray frost
#

@old talon Thanks man

old talon
#

no worries

harsh fox
#

one thing that fixed crashing and stutters was verifying files in steam

#

hope that helps ppl

plucky cave
#

@severe ridge I have something I wanted to ask about but wasn't sure if it was beneficial to ask outside of a DM, is it all good if I DM you it?

toxic aspen
#

man, nothing works ๐Ÿ˜ฆ I can't get to play multiplayer at all - ready button simply doesn't work

old talon
#

ready up in lobby @toxic aspen

#

?

#

if so, just wait a minute

#

only in mp tho

orchid flame
#

i lost my main profile anyone know if it can be recovered

old talon
#

after a minute it puts you in the game automatically

toxic aspen
old talon
#

ahhh

#

i mean

toxic aspen
#

ready button doesn't work, chat doesn't work

old talon
#

if your friend readies up it should eventually put you in

#

where is the player model

toxic aspen
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

it's like i dont even connect

#

i dont know what's wrong with it

old talon
#

weird

#

not sure man

toxic aspen
#

if my friends make a lobby, they'll be able to start

#

if i hop in that lobby

#

even they will not be able to ready up

#

until i leave

#

and i can't readyu p

old talon
#

wtf thats super strange

#

you're cursed brah

#

have you tried reinstalling and verifying game files?

#

might even be worth trying to fix in the pins for the continue button issue as that will reset your save

#

might work, but im just throwing stuff out there

toxic aspen
#

I've done literally everything i can think of

#

reinstalling, restarting, verifying, disabling firewall/antivirus

#

run as admin

#

do that thing with the html file

old talon
#

did you try doing the fix in pins?

wary ingot
#

I tried reinstalling and it didn't fix my problem (see my picture above), any ideas?

old talon
#

its not really for your issue

#

but it might work simply because it resets your profile

#

might fix whatever was there

toxic aspen
#

the fix in pins?

#

the one where you switch the code ofa file?

#

through notepad?

#

or some shit

old talon
#

yeah

toxic aspen
#

yep

#

doesn't work

old talon
#

not sure then man sorry

#

thats all i got

#

put it in the bug report channel

#

devs will be aware of it

toxic aspen
#

i somehow only once managed to get in a lobby, but i never started that game

#

i could see other people in there

#

but i left so i could start with my friend

#

but ever since, i haven't see n anyone in the lobby XD

old talon
#

so might be a dumb question but you get this problem when you host as well?

#

does it happen in singleplayer?

toxic aspen
#

if i host it, my friends cannt join me

#

like

#

they join me

#

but they have this issue

#

which i have

#

but if they make a lobby iwthout me

#

they're good

#

it's like region bullshit

#

but we're all EU

old talon
#

ok so

#

heres a random idea you may not have tried

#

close the game

#

have your friends invite you to the lobby

#

and then click the invite from steam

#

and have the game auto launch and put you in automatically

gray frost
#

@old talon i tried what you told me, it still doesnt wor;

old talon
#

literally again im just grasping at straws

toxic aspen
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

idk i might've tried that

old talon
#

@gray frost i'm not sure then man, try disabling and reenabling your steam cloud

#

thats the only solution i have, it works for me

#

also maybe try disabling your steam overlay

#

sometimes that fixes some bugs

#

that last tip for both @toxic aspen and @gray frost

#

also somebody said in here sometimes literally restarting your computer works lol

#

might be worth giving that a try

toxic aspen
#

done that

gray frost
#

ive tried everything

#

i dont wanna have to wait a week for the patch

#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

toxic aspen
#

what is the issue, regret?

old talon
#

sorry to hear man it sucks, i dont know what else to suggest, fix i gave works for me

gray frost
#

disclairmer button not working

old talon
#

did you make sure you replace the contents of the bottom xml file and not make a new one?

gray frost
#

yeah

old talon
#

the guide tells you to make a new one on reddit but that didnt work for me

#

ah fair

toxic aspen
#

disclaimer

#

the first button?

old talon
#

yeah

toxic aspen
#

i had that too at one point

#

what does ur cursor look like?

#

is it windows

#

or game cursor?

old talon
#

same for me when I had that bug

#

windows cursor

#

when it works you get the game cursor

toxic aspen
#

yeah

#

what's ur, @gray frost

quasi sparrow
#

anyone know why my friend's mouse keep going down while trying to play?

old talon
#

the bug is directly caused by abruptly closing the game from my experience

toxic aspen
#

oh he left? rip ๐Ÿ˜„

quasi sparrow
#

makes the game unplayable

old talon
#

@quasi sparrow do you have a controller plugged in

#

or are you using one to play

quasi sparrow
#

either the controller AND keyboard has the same problem

#

mouse keeps dragging down

old talon
#

if they have a controller plugged in tell them to either unplug it or reinstert it

#

thats the advice in the pinned messages

#

check them for common fixes

#

lot of these issues are widespread and a lot of people are getting them so a few of them have temporary fixes until the update

toxic aspen
#

LOL

#

HAHAHAHA

#

UNPLUGGING MY CONTROLLER FIXED IT

old talon
#

lol wow

#

gg

toxic aspen
#

i can't fucking believe this

old talon
#

hahahaha

toxic aspen
#

is this real life?

old talon
#

ayyyy

#

enjoy the game man

toxic aspen
#

hol' up

#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

let's not get to ohappy

#

too fast

old talon
#

lol

quiet shoal
#

Trying to restore my save file. Does anyone know what the achievement for Backup Magazine is called in the ini?

#

FlawlessTeleporter or soemthing like that ?

mild ridge
#

@quasi sparrow check the pins for the vjoy removal solution

old talon
#

reep, do you have it working now?

#

if so, how?

quiet shoal
#

I'm trying to figure that out right now

old talon
#

can you send me a link

#

ah ok

mild ridge
#

in this channel's pins

quiet shoal
#

maybe just unlocking the item doesn't do it

old talon
#

keep me updated

quiet shoal
#

maybe you need to put the achievement too

old talon
#

what about characters tho?

quiet shoal
#

probably need achieve for those too

old talon
#

just wanna get back all the bois so my lost data is redundant

gray frost
#

@old talon BRO

old talon
#

dont mind getting items again

gray frost
#

I DID IT

#

FINALLY

old talon
#

glad to hear man!

gray frost
#

ahhh

old talon
#

enjoy

trail swallow
#

halp my cursor is acting weird and when i log into the game all my hotkeys say unknown and my character always looks down.

toxic aspen
#

old talon
#

@trail swallow check pins

#

toxic aspen
#

@old talon turned out i was the host of that lobby

trail swallow
#

#

damn

supple wave
#

I hate to speak sort of off topic but since there's activity any of you peeps know a fus for low fps on high end machines? :( been struggling with 5 to 15 fps ingame

#

Fix*

quasi sparrow
#

it works! Only had to uninstall VJOY!

#

thanks a lot guys!

old talon
#

@supple wave heard people taking about turning vsync off in nvidia settings and in the game

quasi sparrow
#

FIXED

old talon
#

also frame llimiter seems to cause me lag

sly swift
#

Yea uninstalling vjoy worked

old talon
#

good stuff

sly swift
#

didnt even know i had that installed wtf

supple wave
#

I'm on and and it's already off Andy

old talon
#

on your nvidia control panel too? if you're on nvidia

supple wave
#

I'm on amd

old talon
#

try turning it off with the amd equivilent if there is one

#

is frame limiting off too?

supple wave
#

Alrighty I'll have a gander

#

Yeah limit is off

old talon
#

might not be the cause but limiter causes me some lag

supple wave
#

I'll check out if amd have a limiter too when I can thanks for the suggestion

#

Have a star

old talon
#

nah i just mean in game the frame limiter caused me lag, vsync is probs what you want to look for on amd

#

not sure if amd has a global settings pane like nvidia does but

#

probably

supple wave
#

Yeah I'll check it out. Afk atm

thick pier
#

A friend and I have been having an issue with the multiplayer lobby. The person who joins is unable to change character, see the other person or hit ready.

#

Was able to play fine yesterday. Any ideas?

toxic aspen

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

sad times

minor saddle
#

I didn't receive the extra key when i purchased

thick pier
#

Ah. I got it around it.

old talon
#

its not a key, its a inventory item

toxic aspen
#

@thick pier oh, how?

old talon
#

check your steaminventoyry @minor saddle

thick pier
#

In my case I had an auto clicker program open (from playing idle games)

#

Had to close it

old talon
#

wait bromad did you try uninstalling vjoy?

#

if you have it?

toxic aspen
#

whta's vjoy?

old talon
#

i dont even know

#

i just know it doesnt work well with this game

#

i think its something to do with controllers

minor saddle
#

@old talon i dont see it there

fossil falcon
#

I'm having the same multiplayer issues, but none if these odd fixes apply lol

old talon
#

@minor saddle when did you buy?

#

the deal is over now if you didnt know

#

minor saddle
#

@old talon i didnt know thjat

#

#

It may be some program causing it

toxic aspen
#

i dont know anymore

#

#

old talon
#

old talon

toxic aspen

wind cape
#

Im havin the issue of games ending well before anyone dies

wraith yarrow
#

Has there been a solution found about the crazy menu sensitivity + constantly looking up/down?

#

I read a lot about it, but never saw if it was explained

old talon
#

vjoy or reinstert your controller

#

check the pinned messages @wraith yarrow

wraith yarrow
#

thanks

toxic aspen
#

wheat topaz
#

Just realized i was postin in the wrong chat

#

Has anyone had any problems connecting to friends or making lobbies? I cant seem to get either to work with any of my friends

fickle rivet
#

Just a quick question are the saves on the steam cloud? Can you reinstall the game without losing progress?

wheat topaz
#

Yes

#

I just did that

green topaz
#

it lets me in now

#

didnt let me work b4

#

idk after some time it works

wheat topaz
#

Ive been trying this every day since launch and it still doesnt work. Quickplay doesnt even work for me

misty zodiac
#

Heya folks! Does anyone have any advice for lobby connection issues with two players on the same LAN?

wheat topaz
#

It does one of 3 things when i try and invite people/accept and invite or join quickplay.
1.nothing at all happens
2.my game goes into a black screen and boots me to the main menu
3.my hud in the top right that shows my lobby info disappears (sometimes its not even there when i go to the multiplayer tab) and nothing happens

grave raptor
#

Well... if you can get into your router and turn on DMZ, that might help...

misty zodiac
#

Sounds similar to trying to join my husbands lobby. Has the same symptoms

#

Already have DMZ enabled on my modem. Well, pseudo DMZ, thanks ATT.

noble void
#

does anyone have any suggestions for me, I can't start the game at all. i get a crash every time i try to start the game

misty zodiac
#

any error messages?

orchid flame
#

is there any fix yet for the Early access disclaimer?

grave raptor
#

Yeah, I've only encountered the problem where it doesn't use the graphics card and runs off of integrated graphics instead. Which I do know how to fix that.

leaden turret
#

@orchid flame Check the pinned messages for this channel

orchid flame
#

tried those didnt work

#

oh wait theres new pins

#

ill check it out

leaden turret
#

@grave raptor Could you explain how I might fix that actually?

#

My computer keeps hard resetting and it might be that my PSU is drawing in too much power when rendering the game

grave raptor
#

Yeah, you have to go to your graphics card's control console and set it use your graphics card for RoR 2.

#

So. If you have an Nvidia card, you can find the console inside your taskbar icons in the right side of your taskbar.

#

Right click on the Nvidia icon and select control panel, from there you go into manage 3D settings and into manage programs.

leaden turret
#

Gotcha

chilly granite
#

I just went to launch the game and all of my progress was reset... Is this a known issue?

grave raptor
#

Risk of Rain 2 will most likely not be in the drop down list of programs. If that's the case, hit add. Then find it under the 'r's and once you've added it you should have a dropdown that let's you switch from your integrated graphics to your graphics card.

noble void
#

any help on the crashing, i tried the fix that was pinned but to no avail

grave raptor
#

You tried all of this?
"PROBLEM The game won't launch - crashes on startup!
FIX Please make sure to update your Graphics Drivers, disable any Antivirus, and restart your PC. Afterwards, reinstall the game!"

chilly granite
#

Okay I restarted steam and my progress is back :)

grave raptor
#

... Okay, that's just weird. But glad you got your progress back.

chilly granite
#

Yeah I have no idea why it did that, but I was pissed

grave raptor
#

@leaden turret Were you able to get your graphics switched over?

noble void
#

yeah i tried those steps, in that order

grave raptor
#

Huh... I am not sure.

leaden turret
#

I went ahead looked at my graphics console (I use AMD, so it's Radeon Settings) and I don't actually think I was using integrated graphics. I might still need to fine tune things inside there though.

grave raptor
#

Right, well good luck, hope you find something that help you there.

#

And danjons, I really don't know what else you can do. It might be some sort of issue with your specific hardware or software.

#

There should be some codes you can look up from the error message that might give you something to try.

noble void
#

will do thanks

primal sierra
#

Is anyone having an issue where after getting past the 3rd map it just blackscreens?

#

If I wait it throws me back to the main menu, this is on multiplayer, and it happens every time ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

tropic hawk
#

for some reason i cant find a quickplay game

#

either i get invalid id or if i get into one it never loads

wheat topaz
#

^another problem i got

ionic glade
#

Hey can someone explain how to fix my game only displaying attribute names? Like instead of the actual early beta disclaimer it just gives me Early_Access_Disclaimer and my menu and everything are alike.

primal sierra
#

In the pins, @ionic glade

ty

fathom niche
#

unsure if this is where i should post;l however on RoR2 I used a lunar coin, entered portal and the artificer (10 coin character) is not available to me.

wheat topaz
#

Did you buy the character?

fathom niche
#

no i do not have it

wheat topaz
#

You have to buy them from the shop for 10 coins

#

They are right next to the merchant

fathom niche
#

ya im at the shop just its not there

#

yup looking right where it should be, no dice lol

wheat topaz
#

Sorry m8. Dunno how to help there

#

This thing?

fathom niche
#

yup its not there on mine lol

wheat topaz
#

Huh

#

Im not 100% sure if there is another prerequisite

fathom niche
#

i left, gonna farm another lunar coin to get back to 11

#

and go try again lol

formal spade
#

Gotta love having to fix the "save corruption" every day I want to play

ionic glade
#

@pallid ibex I tried the corrupted save fix and it did not work...

formal spade
#

It's really hit or miss

modern salmon
#

is there a fix for a game constantly looking straight down?

#

dragging the mouse down

tawdry hamlet
#

hey I read through the pinned messages and there appears to be no solution for game crashing mid game. if anyone can help that would be great.

quick flare
#

@pallid ibex can you DM me when you get a chance? I have a question for you

ionic glade
#

So if the save fix doesn't work did I just spend 20 dollars to not play the game?

formal spade
#

Yes

#

And they're taking their time to push the fix

modern salmon
#

:/

tawdry hamlet
#

does your save deletes itself midgame or what @ionic glade

formal spade
#

No it's "save corruption"

#

Stops you from going past the early access popup

#

disclaimer whatever

tawdry hamlet
#

oh ok

ionic glade
#

The xml file in the game is corrupted

#

So I can't even get to the character select screen

formal spade
#

Could always just try the steam cloud fix

ionic glade
#

How does that work?

formal spade
#

disable steam cloud, rename local save folder, open/close game, enable steam cloud, watch it sync/download your profile, open game (assuming it works), close game, replace with old save

#

I usually have to try 2 or more times but eventually it downloads my cloud save and boots fine

#

Then I revert to old save

ionic glade
#

I'll give it a try. Ty

formal spade
#

Might be able to force a steam cloud pull with console but that seems like a stretch for something this stupid

orchid flame
#

Is there a way to play multiplayer over LAN?

wheat topaz
#

I still cant get normal multiplayer to work at all

formal spade
#

Hell yeah

#

Might know a way to fix the corrupt save thing faster

ionic glade
#

What is it because the other thing didn't work lmao

formal spade
#

Got excited for nothing

#

Cause the command was removed from Steam

#

Shame cause it would have been perfect

ionic glade
#

Dang

Hey devs, just a quick note, I saw in your FAQ that you hadn't figured out how to do split screen in Unity. I'm a veteran Unity dev and would be happy to point you in the right direction if that would be helpful.

#

DM me if you'd like; not looking to join your team, just help out with the split-screen, which I feel is one of the main things missing. ๐Ÿ‘

#

Or should I just let it go?

#

#

I always get booted back to the main menu. If I host, everyone dcs without readying up

stark plaza
#

where are you up to

#

when you get restarted

#

when you say booted back

chrome sleet
#

I just mean the multiplayer in general does not work

stark plaza
#

is it after the game starts

#

oh right that bug

chrome sleet
#

I get a bricked character screen after a long load and then get sent to the main menu

stark plaza
#

some people go on steam and verify the integrety of the game cache

#

apparently that works

chrome sleet
#

I tried that multiple times already

stark plaza
#

is your ip good?

chrome sleet
#

yeah its fine

stark plaza
#

hmmm

#

you might have to ask the devs

#

this one networking problems

#

I can't help you unless I get hands on

#

I'm sorry

#

my knowledge is limited :c

#

apologies

slender marten
#

You might need to open ports on your routers in order to host games

#

But even so there's problems with the game dealing with the windows firewall and opening ports within the computer, so even if you open port --say 11000-- in your router and direct it to your computer

#

*'s IP address, the game still has problems connecting

nimble belfry
#

@chrome sleet I was dealing with a problem just like that. Turned out to be my VPN... so it might be a VPN or firewall issue.

have there been any problems with gifted games? my cousin who i gifted the game cant do anything besides look at the title screen. any known fixes so far?

full skiff
#

I'm dealing with the same problem Fleshy, I know its not my firewall or VPN and I don't know the login for my router to try the opening of the ports thing. So I'm not sure what to do either

potent fiber
#

Is there any known issue where a person can't see anyone else in the lobby and when we go to character select he doesnt come with us and sometimes get kicked out?

chrome sleet
#

I have that exact issue if I manage to connect to a multiplayer lobby

full skiff
#

me too

valid bridge
#

I'm having trouble launching the game. I click on Play and it goes to a black screen, then the game shuts off. Ive tried updating my graphics card and disabling the anti-virus.

potent fiber
#

ah ok so it is a common problem currently known

full skiff
#

I hope they know about it at least, I bought the game so I could play with friends and I am the only one having this issue

potent fiber
#

So for my friend a reboot seemed to work. he got to the character selection screen.

viral belfry
#

agreed, this is a very frustrating bug

potent fiber
#

we're about to go into a game now

full skiff
#

reboot of the game or of his PC?

potent fiber
#

the pc

viral belfry
#

i rebooted and still didnt work

chrome sleet
#

that's just weird

#

I've rebooted a few times since fixing another issue I had and the result is always the same

valid bridge
#

Has anybody else had the issue of the game starting but crashing after 3-4 seconds? It's really frustrating to not be able to play after having bought it and given the copy to a friend who's having fun rn :(

chrome sleet
#

So I fixed the dc issue

#

I put a rule in Windows Firewall about port 11000, allowing connections to both tcp and udp

#

idk which you really need

#

so 2 rules

#

having problems online. i seem to lag out pf games at random. ive had no problems playing other games online but once i start ror2, my connection goes to shit and i lag out of the game. any ideas?

Just disable your firewall 4Head

i dont think that's it

i played earlier and had no problems, now when i open risk of rain 2 it disconnects me from discord, any ideas?

#

Played ~5 hours, lost all progress - read I can apparently copy paste my old save over the new profile I made (?)

#

Or is verifying a much better option?

chrome sleet
#

no, you don't need to disable it at all

#

just open 11000 in foire

#

stiff rover
#

i disabled my firewall all together and it still disconnects me from discord

#

@old talon Tinkered around with a second user profile. I think i understand how it works now. To unlock Backup Magazine, for example, you need to add "CompleteTeleporterWithoutInjury" to achievements along with "<unlock>Items.EquipmentMagazine</unlock>" to the items list

#

you need both or it won't work

sinful lance
#

After verifying my files it now won't let me click continue

celest tundra
#

quick question: Do the "+" Buttons to add a friend on the multiplayer screen currently not work? I managed to play with my friend by sending him my room ID so he could join with the clipboard so all was fine and good, just wanting to be sure if thats a bug on my end or if thats an already known problem. Screenshot from a YT Video for reference on what I am talking about. (Klicking on the button does nothing)

quiet shoal
#

@sinful lance I fixed that by deleting my userprofile after copying all the contents, uninstalling and reinstalling game, and enablinb steam cloud. but i had an existing save in the steam cloud so...

sinful lance
#

I should have a save in the steam cloud -
I've attempted to overwrite the new save it forced me to make - which then locked the continue button, I then reverted the save and verified files but the continue button was still locked
I uninstalled, then reinstalled the game but it still has issues, steam cloud always on

polar lake
#

Did they disable the "cheats" = "0" command in console?

sinful lance
#

I might try removing all save files and disabiling cloud, letting it make a new one then patching it

#

no dice

sinful lance
#

Yeah rip nothing I do fixes the continue issue

#

I hate this, instead of copy pasting the contents, copying the original file then replacing the old files name with the forced new name apparently let me pass the continue screen -

thorny pulsar
#

my computer freezes after playing for over 40m. 1hour

old patio
#

Is there a way to fix the continue screen issue without wiping save data?
I don't know if my issue is the same as everyone else's, as it seems like the game doesn't register the mouse (the steam shift + tab menu still works and everything, but the game itself doesn't respond to it, and it still uses the system cursor)

@orchid flame yeah i was just wondering if theres something i should be doing on my end in settings to fix it..

ah ok. yea maybe someone else knows but i have no clue

For me reducing the amount of corpses that can stay on the ground to 0 helped with late game performance (GTX 770 though, not the beefiest card out there but enough for 1080p 60fps with all other settings maxed out)

My longest game went only to like 50 minutes or so though

Hi, so i have been messing around with around with the .dlls in the Managed folder to play with 16 players and now when i boot the game I cannot get past the early access notice.

i must also note i was trying to get bandit to work

@ripe thorn : i have same issue on u..

"PROBLEM All the strings in the game say stuff like CONTEXT_NAME_STRING, TITLE_MENU_STRING, etc.

@flint dagger


We've generally narrowed down the issue to your Save data being corrupted. This may be caused because you shut the game down abruptly or another issue occured. Please note that this will wipe your save file contents. If you want, back it up elsewhere.



1. First, make sure Risk of Rain 2 is closed. 
2. Restart Steam.
3. Next, locate the folder that your userprofiles are saved in. This is typically in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\(ACCOUNTNUMBER)\632360\remote\UserProfiles"
4. There should be an xml file in there with a bunch of random characters, i.e 2919dc8a-fd4c-4c3c-bd7d-8aeeac67b831.xml. Open the .xml file in Notepad.
5. Go to https://pastebin.com/BQkjgRrK and copy the contents of the Pastebin INTO the .xml file, REPLACING ALL THE EXISTING CONTENT. Press Save.
6. Reopen the game in Steam.

Please let me know if this works - we will be patching the game in the future to work around this, but for now this should at least let you enjoy the game.```

Is there anyone else at all encountering half second freezes when picking up items?

potent crest
#

Hey, i brought my friend a copy of the game and when we're trying to play we cant start it, i cant see him and he cant see me. we only see each other in lobby, but not under the ready button and not each other's characters :\

please help ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

it worked for me with other people, but even when i try to quick play with him it won't work

#

we can quick play separately, but not play with each other for some reason

calm siren
vast sleet
#

@potent crest You may wanna try changing the settings of the .exe for the game. You'll wanna turn off full screen optimizations, and check the "run this program as admin"

#

That's what helped my game issues, and it's what I use to solve most problems with any game I've had issues with before. Hopefully that helps.

potent crest
#

@vast sleet what do you mean changing the settings of the .exe?

vast sleet
#

Ah

#

I show you

potent crest
#

and both of us will have to do that?

vast sleet
#

It's worth a shot

#

I can't guarantee it will work, but it just might

#

That's the exe

potent crest
#

is it possible to have the game on windowed fullscreen? :\

#

yeah, i know.. but what settings?

vast sleet
#

Right click>properties>compatibility>change settings for all users

#

Disable fullscreen optimizations, and run this program as admin should both be checked

potent crest
#

ok, i will try that! thanks

vast sleet
#

For sure! Hopefully that adds a little help

stiff cliff
#

But if someone want to try to translate how he can do it?

vast sleet
#

Translate in what sense? The game language?

stiff cliff
#

Yep

vast sleet
#

You could duplicate one of the language folders, copy the script, and enter the language as appropriate

#

So it would take quite some time, but in theory I don't see why it wouldn't work

stiff cliff
#

Thank you

vast sleet
#

No problem

#

There are lots of text files within the games folders, so do keep in mind you may get a headache if you go that route. No guarantee it would work, but no guarantee it wouldn't work. I'm no developer but I would think there isn't much more complexity to it than that.

stiff cliff
#

Yeah I can immagine, but I want to try it. The game will be more cool

vast sleet
#

Here's to hoping it works! If you end up figuring it out, let me know, I'd love to see it working in action

anyone else having problems connecting to a multiplayer game? Sometimes just says 'Invalid Lobby Id' , when it finds people, it just gets stuck at 0 and won't go into the game / kicks me out.

quaint mulch
#

I have this problem where the game freezes when I pick up an item?
it's only temporary but you could probably guess that it gets frustrating

#

It's not all the time, but most of the time

vast sleet
#

Is it a quick freeze? Or does it last more than like 2 or 3 seconds?

quaint mulch
#

It's about 2 seconds max

vast sleet
#

Item pickups are the only thing that causes it to stutter?

quaint mulch
#

They're the most consistent cause of it yeah

#

No correlation to the amount of enemies on screen

vast sleet
#

Dumb question but have you tried dropping *all * the visual settings to bare minimum?

quaint mulch
#

Yeah, it didn't change anything

vast sleet
#

Verified your game files through steam?

quaint mulch
#

Actually, no I haven't tried that

vast sleet
#

Try that and lemme know

#

If that doesn't work we'll move on

tall current
#

Still having problems with multiplayer since yesterday. Can join lobby with friends but can't press ready/do anything. If I'm the host then everybody else can't press ready/do anything. Hopefully there's a fix soon

ancient sun
#

Yeah I have the same problems as funky fettucine and I couldn't fix it either.

#

Will try verifying the gamefiles.

#

The weirdest part is that the game doesn't do it for all item pickups equally.

#

It's not like "oh fungus needs to grow on your bod so it stutters a bit".

#

But rather "hey you picked up this item, lemme flip a coin to see if we wanna stop your screen from updating for 2 seconds and have you die"

spice heron
#

i dont know where to ask about this but yesterday i played with dude who had a cowboy survivor was he a dev?

Currently you can "unlock" Bandit via commandlines and editing game files.

@vast sleet didnt work :\

vast sleet
#

Not entirely sure to be honest dude. GWczeAngryCry Iโ€™d try reinstalling it on both ends and seeing if that helps.

foggy quiver
#

Not both ends

#

It's something with your internet. Not sure myself

#

The only thing that has helped me is VPN

#

Run a VPN just to get connected in the lobby. You can turn it off after that. That's the only way I can play with my friend

#

It's something with the Steam IDs, or network. You can play online with some people, but not everyone. Only the VPN has helped me connect with my friend. Hamachi might work too

#

Reinstalling the game wont do anything

after verifying the game files, restart your pc

any idea what could be doing it?

oh nice, guess just my progress got reset -.-

trim mesa

@junior tangle is it when one person makes a lobby the other guy gets 0:00

#

and a fucked up screen

junior tangle
#

No we just can't join at all

trim mesa
#

huh

junior tangle
#

No error, just can't get past the mutiplayer screen

#

don't even appear in the lobby together

trim mesa
#

and you can both play with other players?

junior tangle
#

He just got the game

#

but I can

trim mesa
#

make him do all the usual stuff

#

verify integrity, reinstall, firewall settings, restart computer, that sort of shit

junior tangle
#

last time I played my pc did crash mid game, maybe that did something idk

trim mesa
#

well if you can still play with other people

#

then that aint it chief

junior tangle
#

We both just got 1 file failing to validate, maybe it wsa that

trim mesa
#

every single person i know that's tried validating risk of rain cache has gotten that

#

idk why, game just scuffed or some shit

#

or it could just be we're all super unlucky

The issue was he didn't update steam...

#

Yeah i have the same prob

#

Exactly the same

fleet magnet
#

the devs says that we need update videocard drivers, but it's not help at all...

anyone know why the game doesnt let me look up?
i think the game is assuming i have a controller connected but i really dont
nor have i ever

Its alright now

#

Restarted steam haha

#

Weird

tall current
#

@junior tangle @foggy quiver I found that Hamachi fixes the issues of not being able to join a friend

orchid flame
#

is the VFX culling bias option in the INI file for this game

#

or is it only accessible in the game

tall current
#

Another option is to keep joining/leaving the lobby and eventually it works

foggy quiver
#

@tall current Yea. Though that hamachi would probably work when I saw the VPN helped

Hey, I'm having trouble starting a multiplayer game with a friend, after we get into the lobby the game won't let me click ready. Is anyone else getting this and can I fix it?

Try using a VPN. You only need to connect to the lobby. After that you can disable it

Hello?

digital field
#

The game keeps thinking I have a controller plugged in when I don't, and makes me constantly look down, making the game unplayable. I already tried disabling my 360 wireless adapter. Also, when i do have a controller plugged in, it still happens, so I don't think its a problem with the 360 controller, and yes, this is the ONLY controller I have plugged in at any time. I don't see this with other games. Any suggestions?

#

Hello. Will there be any discount or bonus again? Maybe planning on purchasing it for my friends.

@median raptor Not the correct place to be asking that, this is for tech support.

#

No idea, to be honest.

#

OK. Thanks dude

#

Or girl

kindred wharf
#

@digital field Do you have vjoy installed?

digital field
#

nope @kindred wharf

kindred wharf
#

And you've tried unplugging the adapter, not just disabling it? Other than that, restarting your computer might also help.

digital field
#

actually, i found some remnants of vjoy hidden somewhere ๐Ÿ™„ hopefully that fixes it

#

I would just check device manger to make sure it's driver isn't installed still then

hey guys, I posted yesterday about my game not loading textures at all/those that load being glitchy, and I found out in the output log that the game can't load a lot of vertex shaders. I have an old amd hd5650 which is below specs, but I've seen people run the game with worse stuff, drivers are up to date and the card supports pixel/vertex shader 5.0. should I just give up and wait for a patch?

I can also post pictures again

@wary ingot I'm assuming you posted in bug-report, unfortunately I don't see anything about that in troubleshooting.

#

@kindred wharf I did, I also wondered if I was the first to report that because I did not see anyone else have that issue, should I post the log?

vast sleet
#

@stiff cliff thatโ€™s awesome!!!

kindred wharf
#

A pastebin link for it would probably help developers, but I don't know.

wary ingot
#

I mean, I saw a lot of people with a similar config have the black screen problem, or the game outright crashing

#

I see

kindred wharf
#

@orchid flame There's a lot of reasons, but if you have other games you directly connect with that work fine, it might be a bug.

orchid flame
#

Aye pal, We even have hamachi connected to see if that helps but nothing seems to reduce the lag.

kindred wharf
#

With that in mind, if other games work for you two without the lag, it might be a bug then.

orchid flame
#

Definitely.

I can see the foliage and rain effects in the background as well so I know the game is at least running. Just can't get past the darn screen

Same

#

And yet no answer from the TS

mighty plaza
#

can somebody consult me on my problem with fps and optimization in game and my specs?
I have a laptop with Intel core i5-7200U cpu and intel HD graphics 620 and nvidia GTX 950m GPU (i've set in nvidia panel to use only gtx 950m for risk of rain2.exe).
I usually have around 20-40 (sometimes in menu only 40-50) fps with everything low in settings, 1280x720x60 resolution (native is 1920x1024x60) and I wonder if it is ok with my specs. if i set in game resolution to native i have around 10-30 in menu and in-game.
Please SOS :>

#

Hey me and my friend are having trouble joining eachother, are there any tricks to make it work?

waxen elk
#

same @crude night

#

havent gotten a response

short carbon
#

It seems like a major issue and we have no follow up on it

#

Its kinda sad lol

clear grove
#

do you guys have any plans of bringing RoR2 over to Mac, and if so is that going to be a post release type thing?

sweet venture
#

right now I think they're focusing on getting the game to work reliably. Not trying to throw shade, it's just that it's an Early Access game that's been out for less than a week

terse osprey
#

So i run the game fine, but anytime I pick up an item, I lag for a second or 2, anyone know how to fix this?

coral grove
#

@tribal ferry I got a similar problem like you do buddy if not the exact same. Whenever I try to start single player it just zooms in on the background and stays like that forever. I cant even quit the game normally i have to force close it with task manager. I havent been able to actually start the game at all

spark nacelle
#

@tribal ferry Is it the problem described in the pinned messages ?

subtle rock
#

does anyone know when a mac release might be?

#

somewhere mentioned soon but I can no longer find it

#

Hey, I'm currently trying to play with my friend but whenever we queue together the one who's not the party leader gets a black screen and then kicked. Is this a known issue with any fixes?

vapid flame
#

It is a known issue, at least widespread

#

IDK if the team has figured out a fix on their end but

#

It's something about launch parameters and joining a steam lobby with it.

orchid flame
#

What's the sound logic for music during "exploration" phase? Trying to convert ROR1 OST to ROR2, and i still get snippets of original music when landing, and sometimes the track cuts away to silence, while the underlaying music plays, then its back to normal

warm garnet
#

@vapid flame are there any workarounds? like could I get someone else to host a lobby?

vapid flame
#

Yeah

#

I also heard it's something with latency.. or firewall problems.

#

It's a weeeird bug. Since the joining player times out and gets kicked.

warm garnet
#

Yeah, oh well we managed to get in a lobby together for now

sweet venture
#

btw, there's no news about a macOS release of the game @subtle rock

echo sapphire
#

What bosses count for getting the Deicide achievement? Because I'm pretty sure I've killed mostly all of the variations of bosses but I'm still not getting the achievement PS not sure if this is a bug or not so I thought I would ask here

upper narwhal
#

Are you on Monsoon difficulty?

echo sapphire
#

Yeah

upper narwhal
#

What variations have you killed?

echo sapphire
#

Overloading, blazing, and glacial

#

Idk if there are anymore?

#

Or if those even count as elite bosses?

manic thorn
#

Is the thing you're killing actually the teleporter boss? Not sure it works otherwise since that's how I got the achievement

echo sapphire
#

Yeah

#

What boss was it when you got it?

latent trail
#

When I join my friends lobby I can not select any of the characters. How come? We tried swapping host too but then the same happens to my friend

echo sapphire
#

Try joining when you are in the mutliplayer screen where it's in the bedroom

#

You should be able to play from there

worldly tinsel
#

any idea why the "Continue" button would be suddenly broken? I have deleted all saves and the continue button is still grayed out

echo sapphire
#

The continue button usually breaks for me when someone in the game leaves while in that screen

#

Other than that idk

worldly tinsel
#

the one right at the start

echo sapphire
#

Oh

#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

#

Is that a refresh button in the bottom right?

#

Or just a loading sign

#

?

worldly tinsel
#

loading sign I think

latent trail
#

didn't seem to make a difference and my friend already quit trying

sweet venture
#

check the pinned messages about the greyed-out continue button.

worldly tinsel
#

didn't help

Does anyone else have issues with quickplay not working and a file having to be revalidated

#

Does anyone knows what port risk of rain 2 uses in steam

chrome sleet
#

im not 100% sure but I think it's like the first game. 11000

ashen tartan
#

thanks. also it can be issue that can give you black screen in multiplayer. My modem seems to have this port closed

#

Because on other modem it works nice

Pls work on the insane multiplayer lag, even in the same region

I played several hours last night, only to log in and not have anything for my profile. all my characters are gone. please help.

orchid flame
#

I see the game has english support only. Where can we help in translating it? Are there any official links to submit yet?

worldly tinsel
#

so where does the game store the number of profiles?

#

registry?

#

after doing some debugging on the binary, I noticed that it was trying to load a delete profile, even after a full reinstall of the game and all steam save data deleted

spice rune
#

My friend has a problem where he can't play in private lobbies with us. He can do quickplay and solo private just fine.

#

When he joins private lobby with us, the timer below ready button is set to 0

#

and he can't ready up

#

He asked a few other people to invite him to their lobbies, and same thing is happening

#

so problem is no his part

#

any simillar experiences ?

chrome sleet
#

I had the same issue, thought I fixed it, and then it went back to not working

north leaf
#

is the game having issues I keep somehow leaving my game and doesn't say if I'm kicked or lost connection which would make no sense since everything is working fine

#

like it disconnects me I don't leave out of my own will

#

When you join a new lobby?

ornate pollen

trying to play a private a game with a friend and it's not working correctly. If I'm the host I'll drop into the game and he won't get an exit pod and will have to spectate me. If he's the host his game will start and I'm stuck at character select cuz my 'ready' button won't lock in

#

i was playing private games with friends yesterday just fine too

stiff cloud
#

Hi, Im trying to play Quickplay multiplayer but the menu options are brown instead of the normal blue

#

only invite friends and back are clickable

#

and also I always have a single corrupted file when I verify the game files

ember flower
#

Trying to just play the game. The sensitivity in the menu is so high I can't select options reliably, and when I do manage to get in the game, all buttons say "unknown" and the camera constantly spins.

#

Got the same issue with verifying files

short carbon
#

Is this a trap channel or there is suppose to be a technical support ? People complaining the game is full of bug since today (was fine yesterday) and we got nothing from the dev

Maybe it's a problem with Unity? @gloomy rain

gloomy rain

Tried run as admin no luck

meager copper
#

@stiff cloud Make sure your antivirus has an exception for any files in RoR2's folder. That's the only way I can see a consistent failed validation.

gloomy rain

Got it working: went to properities -> verify integrity of game files and it fixed it

on launch im getting 6 FPS... is this a known issue?

restarting pc seems to have fixed

hasty lintel
#

Hello

#

when im joining my fiends game i have blackscreen and disconnect how do i fix this?

simple wraith
#

Try verifying the game files, and if that doesn't work, uninstall and reinstall? Otherwise it may be a graphics driver issue or connectivity problems.

fallow zinc
#

is the game supposed to randomly boot you out when two people in your squad die?

simple wraith
#

If the lobby host leaves the game, it boots everyone else out of their lobby.

orchid flame
buoyant stream
#

When I first opened the game, my virus protector found this HEU_CDPLCEXT virus in the program. Just a heads up, I dont know where else to put this. And I dont know if it has already been addressed.

hardy sonnet
#

Can we have maybe a reconnect button? Or a reconnect feature?

meager copper
#

antiviruses are overzealous, especially when it comes to unity games

hasty lintel
#

@simple wraith did all bove not working

simple wraith
#

Then I'd recommend restarting your modem and computer as a possible fix. Otherwise it may be a simple connection error between you and the friend.

woeful kelp
#

Why does my cursor just look at the ground when I boot the game?

#

I will look upwards and it slides back down

simple wraith
#

It's defaulting your mouse position to the bottom of your screen.

faint egret
#

will they add a split screen? me an my brother played the first one alot like that

woeful kelp
#

Is there any fix?

simple wraith
#

Dunno how to fix that issue, but it sounds like the game is defaulting your mouse to the bottom of your screen on launch.

hasty lintel
#

@simple wraith i restart both

woeful kelp
#

It even does that when I play with controller

hasty lintel
#

i can be contcted to other pplz but with friend not working \

simple wraith
#

Hrm. Do you have the controller plugged in at all times, or do you switch? @woeful kelp
@hasty lintel It sounds like it's a network connectivity issue between you and the friend specifically. Are you trying to host the lobby, or are they? If the problem persists, try hosting the lobby (invite them to you), and if it does, it means their connection isn't strong enough to play multiplayer with (unfortunately).

woeful kelp
#

I was trying to play with mouse and keyboard with the controller turned off, then I thought to try the controller for a better experience but to no avail

simple wraith
#

@woeful kelp Check pins (upper right corner) message 2 for your issue.

pine sundial
#

for all who got connection problems, try to use hamachi with ur corrupted friend who cant connect. it works for me

hasty lintel
#

We tried to create game both, and join between them - not working

simple wraith
#

Definitely sounds like a networking error between you two. Have they tried the same catch-all solutions? (restart game, computer, modem, and the like?)

rare topaz
#

Is their a way to send your gift to another person? Because the person I sent my gift to cannot run the game, and I was wondering if their was a way that I could get the gift back from him (he has like 17 minutes in the game) and then send it to another friend that has a pc that can run it. This was part of the buy one get one free deal also if that matters.

hasty lintel
#

Yeap we did

covert snow
#

If I get the characters through the modification of steams files, will there be any repercussion?

simple wraith
#

Crippling guilt and a generally unpleasant aura from people who've found out.

prisma escarp
#

In game I am stuck always looking downwards, on both controller and keyboard. In addition the menu mouse sensitivity is absurdly high

covert snow
#

So I won't get like banned?

simple wraith
#

Keep it singleplayer, don't hack/cheat in multiplayer, and no. At least, not by Steam you won't. (No one is stopping you from doing it, but you really shouldn't.)

covert snow
#

Alright, I just am having really bad luck with trying to find the merc ๐Ÿ˜…

#

I won't though !!

simple wraith
#

Merc can be found by the portal that spawns randomly after a teleporter event. (Don't use newt altar, that brings you to the Bazaar between dimensions).

bitter carbon
#

i have really bad lag, all my settings are set to low and i still can barely play, any suggestions

covert snow
#

Ye I know how to get him, I just haven't gotten the "celestial orb" to appear AND be able to finish my teleporter

simple wraith
#

Patience will be more rewarding than desperation.

bitter carbon
#

can i just not play?

#

or should i do something to fix it

simple wraith
#

Check pins, message 3. Compare your graphics card to specs of the game. That may be your issue.

meager copper
#

@orchid flame
Go to steam/steamapps/common/Risk of Rain 2/Config
Open config.cfg with your text editor of choice
add "ea_message_skip 1;" without quotes to a new line.

The game will overwrite this on exit currently, so until that is fixed you'll need to do it every time you're about to start the game if you're having the early access window problem.

feral rover
#

anyone getting an issue of the game freezing for a few seconds when you pick up an item

orchid flame
#

I get that on my desktop but not my laptop

feral rover
#

does the game run well for you?

orchid flame
#

@feral rover if you want to contribute to fixing this issue here's a few steps I recommend: dump your system specs by opening dxdiag and selecting Save all information... and uploading that file here

Also share your game's output_log.txt! it's in %Username%\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2

#

The game runs fantastic... When I have VFX Culling Bias at the lowest setting

#

I don't drop below 100FPS typically
