@old talon so uninstall, install, open game, close game, go to files, change file, save and it fixed?
thats how it works for me
@old talon ok ill try
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
ok
Will definitely try
AH i know why it bugged
my psu is acting up so my computer keeps shutting down mid game
we took the blue portal on the 3rd teleporter instead of the teleporter
had to do this fix a bunch
@old talon Thanks man
no worries
one thing that fixed crashing and stutters was verifying files in steam
hope that helps ppl
@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?
man, nothing works ๐ฆ I can't get to play multiplayer at all - ready button simply doesn't work
i lost my main profile anyone know if it can be recovered
after a minute it puts you in the game automatically
ready button doesn't work, chat doesn't work
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
wtf thats super strange
you're cursed brah
put it in #ror2-bug-reports-pc
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
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
did you try doing the fix in pins?
I tried reinstalling and it didn't fix my problem (see my picture above), any ideas?
its not really for your issue
but it might work simply because it resets your profile
might fix whatever was there
the fix in pins?
the one where you switch the code ofa file?
through notepad?
or some shit
yeah
not sure then man sorry
thats all i got
put it in the bug report channel
devs will be aware of it
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
so might be a dumb question but you get this problem when you host as well?
does it happen in singleplayer?
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
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
@old talon i tried what you told me, it still doesnt wor;
literally again im just grasping at straws
@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
done that
what is the issue, regret?
sorry to hear man it sucks, i dont know what else to suggest, fix i gave works for me
disclairmer button not working
did you make sure you replace the contents of the bottom xml file and not make a new one?
yeah
yeah
i had that too at one point
what does ur cursor look like?
is it windows
or game cursor?
same for me when I had that bug
windows cursor
when it works you get the game cursor
anyone know why my friend's mouse keep going down while trying to play?
the bug is directly caused by abruptly closing the game from my experience
oh he left? rip ๐
makes the game unplayable
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
i can't fucking believe this
hahahaha
lol
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 ?
@quasi sparrow check the pins for the vjoy removal solution
I'm trying to figure that out right now
in this channel's pins
maybe just unlocking the item doesn't do it
keep me updated
maybe you need to put the achievement too
what about characters tho?
probably need achieve for those too
just wanna get back all the bois so my lost data is redundant
@old talon BRO
dont mind getting items again
glad to hear man!
ahhh
enjoy
halp my cursor is acting weird and when i log into the game all my hotkeys say unknown and my character always looks down.
nvm
@old talon turned out i was the host of that lobby
kay
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*
@supple wave heard people taking about turning vsync off in nvidia settings and in the game
FIXED
also frame llimiter seems to cause me lag
Yea uninstalling vjoy worked
good stuff
didnt even know i had that installed wtf
I'm on and and it's already off Andy
on your nvidia control panel too? if you're on nvidia
I'm on amd
might not be the cause but limiter causes me some lag
I'll check out if amd have a limiter too when I can thanks for the suggestion

Have a star
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
Yeah I'll check it out. Afk atm
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?
other peopple having this issue as well, so far not sure of any fixes
I didn't receive the extra key when i purchased
Ah. I got it around it.
its not a key, its a inventory item
@thick pier oh, how?
check your steaminventoyry @minor saddle
In my case I had an auto clicker program open (from playing idle games)
Had to close it
whta's vjoy?
i dont even know
i just know it doesnt work well with this game
i think its something to do with controllers
@old talon i dont see it there
I'm having the same multiplayer issues, but none if these odd fixes apply lol
@minor saddle when did you buy?
the deal is over now if you didnt know
ended on the 30th
It may be some program causing it
i dont know anymore
had most processed closed
only 2p rograms up
steam and nvidia crap
still won't fix
check your installed programs for vjoy
dont have it
damn boi
even closed disco
xd
could it be that i just can't play multiplayer as im from bulgaria
xd
@toxic aspen I've been having issues with multiplayer too, quickplay doesn't seem to be working for me, and I'm having trouble joining or hosting via private lobby or clipboard link too
Im havin the issue of games ending well before anyone dies
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
thanks
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
Just a quick question are the saves on the steam cloud? Can you reinstall the game without losing progress?
Ive been trying this every day since launch and it still doesnt work. Quickplay doesnt even work for me
Heya folks! Does anyone have any advice for lobby connection issues with two players on the same LAN?
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
Well... if you can get into your router and turn on DMZ, that might help...
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.
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
any error messages?
is there any fix yet for the Early access disclaimer?
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.
@orchid flame Check the pinned messages for this channel
@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
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.
Gotcha
I just went to launch the game and all of my progress was reset... Is this a known issue?
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.
This is the screen you want.
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!"
Okay I restarted steam and my progress is back :)
... Okay, that's just weird. But glad you got your progress back.
Yeah I have no idea why it did that, but I was pissed
@leaden turret Were you able to get your graphics switched over?
yeah i tried those steps, in that order
Huh... I am not sure.
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.
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.
will do thanks
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 ๐ฆ
for some reason i cant find a quickplay game
either i get invalid id or if i get into one it never loads
^another problem i got
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.

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.
Did you buy the character?
no i do not have it
ya im at the shop just its not there
yup looking right where it should be, no dice lol
yup its not there on mine lol
@pallid ibex I tried the corrupted save fix and it did not work...
It's really hit or miss
is there a fix for a game constantly looking straight down?
dragging the mouse down
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.
@pallid ibex can you DM me when you get a chance? I have a question for you
So if the save fix doesn't work did I just spend 20 dollars to not play the game?
:/
does your save deletes itself midgame or what @ionic glade
No it's "save corruption"
Stops you from going past the early access popup
disclaimer whatever
oh ok
The xml file in the game is corrupted
So I can't even get to the character select screen
Could always just try the steam cloud fix
How does that work?
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
I'll give it a try. Ty
Might be able to force a steam cloud pull with console but that seems like a stretch for something this stupid
Is there a way to play multiplayer over LAN?
I still cant get normal multiplayer to work at all
What is it because the other thing didn't work lmao
Got excited for nothing
Cause the command was removed from Steam
Shame cause it would have been perfect
My game freezes for 0.5 - 1.0 second every time i pick up an item, Does anyone know a fix?
Friend can't join my game, help?
In specific, reaches the Multiplayer mainmenu screen that's bugged out
@vapid flame I've heard people have to use VPN's
Never seen that one before
what xml file do i need to add/change to get bandit or assasin or whatevrr
Is it just me or is the bloom toggle broken?
yeah, the devs know about it iirc
ok good. I want to keep playing but my eyes are so red from the strain that people think I'm high
Why three player but two ready?
sorry for the dogshit title, third player keeps getting kicked.
I can't join quickplay and my friends can't join my lobby when I invite them. Wasn't having this issue yesterday.
im having the same issue
and was also able to play yesterday with friends
but i can sometimes join quickplay but i cant play with friends and they cant join me and play in my lobby
When I try to join quickplay it just says not in quickplay queue
my bigest problem is that the game lags to frame by frame when the dificuy aproaches imposibe also cannot turn of bloom (the light partical one )
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. ๐
does anyone have a assembly c sharp for han-d?
are more people having joining/starting game issues?

Quick question: The option to buy Artificer in the Lunar store isn't showing for me at all. Is this a bug with multiplayer?
Hey guys,
my console isn't working as i want
would you help me please?
screenshot: https://ibb.co/k2NQrHq
i started a singleplayer monsoon game,
set to pause over the console,
tried to type cheats
the 'base' is cheats=0
i want cheats=1
typed it, but it doesn't do anything, cause i can't give me give_random_item
what am i missing?
maybe only on drizzle or outside of a game settings cheats to 1?
can anyone help the game won't launch and y0shimizu try set_cheats = 1
A friend of mine has made it past the third teleporter several times, but has not gotten the achievement. Any ideas what might be wrong?
is there any way to get more than 4 players?
i might have found a way but i just wanna know if im gonna get banned from steam for using it or not
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't as when you enable it it disables all progression
@amber dock did he die?
if he dies before the 3rd one you won't get it gotta live until you go through 3
idk if it even works so i don't wanna give out the link
I am the one guy from @cold thorn. Error:
GameNetworkManager.OnClientP2PConnectionFailed steamId=####... sessionError=Timeout
He did it like twice, neither times did he get the achievement
Has anyone found a different way to fix the corrupted save issue? I have tried uninstalling the game/steam, restarting my computer, following the instructions for the corrupted save fix provided by @pallid ibex, and re-syncing my steam cloud. Nothing seems to work...
Man I recently tried buying ror2 when it was on the buy one get one free for me and my friend the transaction wouldn't go through...
anybody experiencing extremely high gpu temps? ror2 is consistently putting me in mid-80's celsius
did anyone else have this error..
I had enough money in my bank balance that's for sure
but I'm not sure why steam didn't allow me to continue with the purchase
is there by any chance that I can contact steam with this kind of situation?
Or should I just let it go?
What GPU do you have?
Any idea why I'm stuck here: https://i.imgur.com/smLVJAZ.jpg ?
it's greyed out so no lol
I'm guessing you're here because you've already tried restarting the game
yeah ^^
I wasn't sure what it meant, but the corrupting part helped me figuring out
I was fiddling with gamefiles and corrupted them
but was able to revert back
xD
are you unable to play?
mhmmm can't afford the game xd
but Idrm
watching youtube videos
would be enough entertainment for me
besides
I don't usually get that much time so I don't Ill get anywhere
maybe I'll buy it when it's 1 for 2 offer again
so i can play it with my friends
awh
so for now
hope you get to try it soon
have fun for the both of us :D
it's worth every penny, especially if you've gone through the first
I still can't get multiplayer to work at all
I feel you. Got a free copy so I'm lucky there
oof
I think both ROR and ROR2 need better multiplayer support
ror2's just doesn't work for me at all
I always get booted back to the main menu. If I host, everyone dcs without readying up
I just mean the multiplayer in general does not work
I get a bricked character screen after a long load and then get sent to the main menu
some people go on steam and verify the integrety of the game cache
apparently that works
I tried that multiple times already
is your ip good?
yeah its fine
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
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
@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.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
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?
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
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?
I have that exact issue if I manage to connect to a multiplayer lobby
me too
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.
ah ok so it is a common problem currently known
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
So for my friend a reboot seemed to work. he got to the character selection screen.
agreed, this is a very frustrating bug
we're about to go into a game now
reboot of the game or of his PC?
the pc
i rebooted and still didnt work
that's just weird
I've rebooted a few times since fixing another issue I had and the result is always the same
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 :(
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
Was more talking about Fleshy
anyone else play on linux with proton and wine and have the problem of no player/monster models
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?
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
After verifying my files it now won't let me click continue
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)
@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...
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
Did they disable the "cheats" = "0" command in console?
I might try removing all save files and disabiling cloud, letting it make a new one then patching it
no dice
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 -
my computer freezes after playing for over 40m. 1hour
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)
Does anyone know if there is a way to get more than 4 people in online, and if so can they tell me how?
stuck looking down, how do i fix this?
local coop active yet? @pallid ibex
Anyone knows how to fix the game when i cant enter the game on the starting screen?
cant seem to press the button
oh
nvm
Local coop would be nice
Has been a while since I've played this much for a single game
games great having some issues with my frame rate dropping a ton when it gets late game and theres a million enemies any tips .. shouldnt be my rig
@pallid ibex
@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
have we found a solution to the online black screen issue? (where friends cant join/cant make it to the character select screen)
I kept falling through the map
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 have reinstalled and verified my game files and it still doesnt work. any tips to get the game working as normal again?
i must also note i was trying to get bandit to work
@ripe thorn : i have same issue on u..
oh shoot i have not checked the pinned message
what pinned message ?
"PROBLEM All the strings in the game say stuff like CONTEXT_NAME_STRING, TITLE_MENU_STRING, etc.
FIX Please make sure that your Window System Clock's Timezone is NOT Invalid. If that does not fix it, please uninstall THEN reinstall VC++ 2015, shown here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
this might work
my problem is, i cant click continue..
@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.```
first pinned message is that
Is there anyone else at all encountering half second freezes when picking up items?
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 ๐ฆ
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

@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.
@vast sleet what do you mean changing the settings of the .exe?
and both of us will have to do that?
is it possible to have the game on windowed fullscreen? :\
yeah, i know.. but what settings?
Right click>properties>compatibility>change settings for all users
Disable fullscreen optimizations, and run this program as admin should both be checked
ok, i will try that! thanks
For sure! Hopefully that adds a little help
But if someone want to try to translate how he can do it?
Translate in what sense? The game language?
Yep
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
Thank you
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.
Yeah I can immagine, but I want to try it. The game will be more cool
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
Ty Bro
Any time 
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.
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
Is it a quick freeze? Or does it last more than like 2 or 3 seconds?
It's about 2 seconds max
Item pickups are the only thing that causes it to stutter?
They're the most consistent cause of it yeah
No correlation to the amount of enemies on screen
Dumb question but have you tried dropping *all * the visual settings to bare minimum?
Yeah, it didn't change anything
Verified your game files through steam?
Actually, no I haven't tried that
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
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"
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.
So you most likely saw someone that did that.
hello frens wat do when ror crashen ON launch?
Ok i got it
restarting steam works apparently
@hollow spruce I haved the same problem but a file verify have resolved the problem
Is there any way to turn off Bloom in game settings?
computer says no
@vast sleet didnt work :\
Not entirely sure to be honest dude.
Iโd try reinstalling it on both ends and seeing if that helps.
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
yo bois
wrong
is there a way to start the game windowed?
or any other resolution?
I think the default resolution is kinda fuking me up
lmao uh
my monitor dc's and it becomes no signal
i had to restart my comp couple of times
lemme edit my settings to find the things you need to change
Did the devs reset everyone's progress?
mine aint reset

@red kettle
change
window_mode Fullscreen;
to
window_mode Window;
resolution is pretty straightforward
first is width, then height, then refresh rate
hmmm alright
and your computer explodes
ill try this settings out
Me and a friend are just completely unable to join each other? I've played with other people plenty of times but today nothing with this one guy today
any idea what could be doing it?
oh nice, guess just my progress got reset -.-
@junior tangle is it when one person makes a lobby the other guy gets 0:00
and a fucked up screen
No we just can't join at all
huh
No error, just can't get past the mutiplayer screen
don't even appear in the lobby together
and you can both play with other players?

make him do all the usual stuff
verify integrity, reinstall, firewall settings, restart computer, that sort of shit
last time I played my pc did crash mid game, maybe that did something idk
We both just got 1 file failing to validate, maybe it wsa that
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...
Does this count as a tech issue: Accidentally nuked my save data. Anything I could do about it to re-unlock items?
Servers are so laggy
ha no wonder
i cant even ready up...
oh?
are you softlocked in lobby
like, can you not see any characters
and the timer is 0:00
no it was lagging in earlier games... now i cant even ready up..
reinstall i guess..
how do I check my ping and how do I match with people near me in quickplay?
I don't think you can and it tried to do it automatically
why is the game scuffing when i enter quickplay? cant see other chars and cant rdy up only if im host
hey is anyone else experiencing multiplayer issues
i invited my friend in my lobby and he can't seem to be able to ready
ah that's too bad :/
It just crashes when i try to start it up
Ive reinstalled it a couple times already
No i bought it on steam
I just tried downloading it on my friends laptop and it works fine
But on mine it wont
Fresh on both
My friend is playing right now
can't launch the game. When I try play, game launch... then black screen and crush. Reinstall it, same problem. Update all drivers, same problem. What I need to do with this problem?
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
@junior tangle @foggy quiver I found that Hamachi fixes the issues of not being able to join a friend
is the VFX culling bias option in the INI file for this game
or is it only accessible in the game
Another option is to keep joining/leaving the lobby and eventually it works
@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?
same here :/ still no clue why
Damn
I cant even press "quick play"
i cant even play with randoms :/
^
only sometimes if im the host...
Try using a VPN. You only need to connect to the lobby. After that you can disable it
Well. If that doesn't work. You can try Hamachi
@paper solstice Hey! Take a look at the pinned solutions to see if you're able to resolve your issue.
all characters on all difficulties stuck moving down and left, lots marked as "UNKOWN" (screencap included), have already reinstalled, and restarted steam
Stuck moving down and left sounds like you might have a controller plugged in.
I had an old PS2 guitar hero controller plugged in
Try playing with it unplugged, see if that helps
Alright, also restarted my PC to see if that would help at all
hello, i got error early_access_disclaimer, and i already tried the solution in the pinned msg and still get that error, any another ideas?
There was more than one solution posted for that, did you go through all the pins? (Other than that, I have nothing @wraith moat )
restarting my pc seemed to fix things... technology still manages to amaze me sometimes
Does anyone else experiences a short lag, when picking up items?
@kindred wharf oh you right, w8 le me use that
@sharp leaf Yeah, things are weird sometimes, glad it got sorted out for you!
Hello?
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.
Oh okay. Where should I ask?
No idea, to be honest.
@digital field Do you have vjoy installed?
nope @kindred wharf
And you've tried unplugging the adapter, not just disabling it? Other than that, restarting your computer might also help.
actually, i found some remnants of vjoy hidden somewhere ๐ hopefully that fixes it
I would just check device manger to make sure it's driver isn't installed still then
yep, that fixed it, thanks!
Glad to help
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
Hey, Sorry to bother you but do you know why there is so much network lag when connecting to a mate that lives 5 Minuites walk away from my house?
@vast sleet it works
anyway to fix this?
when i play a game fps drop is insane
gpu use only 15% when in game
@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?
@stiff cliff thatโs awesome!!!
A pastebin link for it would probably help developers, but I don't know.
I mean, I saw a lot of people with a similar config have the black screen problem, or the game outright crashing
I see
@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.
Aye pal, We even have hamachi connected to see if that helps but nothing seems to reduce the lag.
With that in mind, if other games work for you two without the lag, it might be a bug then.
Definitely.
Anyone else having trouble finding games?
It was working fine yesterday, but now it struggles to find a lobby, and when it does it gets stuck on "1/4 in lobby. Waiting for more players..." even though it says 4 are in
๐
launching in 3000 seconds lol
it starts after 15 seconds anyways, treat it as a visual bug
@vast sleet now Iโm playing but later wanna go on
I might hop on later, Iโll let you know
we are having touble joining each other, any fixes?
Hi
Is there any server issue rn ? Keep getting disconected / throw back into the main menu
hey guys as I've said before I want to post my output log, since I think I'm the first to report the problem I have should I ping the devs here on the bug report channel so they can see it for sure? I don't want to bother them though, I'm sure they're already dealing with a lot of stuff
Hello Tech Support ?
Is there any server issue ? Keeps getting disconnected..
Also having issue joinding quickplay, getting INvalid ID a lot
me and my friend cant join each other, we dont get a message or anything, just nothing happends, it worked fine for us 2 days ago
Stuck on the main menu? Anyone else experiencing this? Game boots to the menu screen but then I'm stuck on the splash page that ironically is thanking me for playing risk of rain 2 and to report bugs. Continue button does not work, neither does the refresh button in the bottom right.
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
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 :>
Well its not working, ill just play later and let them fix that shit
Hey me and my friend are having trouble joining eachother, are there any tricks to make it work?
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?
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
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?
@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
@tribal ferry Is it the problem described in the pinned messages ?
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?
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.
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
@vapid flame are there any workarounds? like could I get someone else to host a lobby?
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.
Yeah, oh well we managed to get in a lobby together for now
btw, there's no news about a macOS release of the game @subtle rock
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
Are you on Monsoon difficulty?
Yeah
What variations have you killed?
Overloading, blazing, and glacial
Idk if there are anymore?
Or if those even count as elite bosses?
Is the thing you're killing actually the teleporter boss? Not sure it works otherwise since that's how I got the achievement
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
Try joining when you are in the mutliplayer screen where it's in the bedroom
You should be able to play from there
any idea why the "Continue" button would be suddenly broken? I have deleted all saves and the continue button is still grayed out
The continue button usually breaks for me when someone in the game leaves while in that screen
Other than that idk
Oh
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Is that a refresh button in the bottom right?
Or just a loading sign
?
loading sign I think
didn't seem to make a difference and my friend already quit trying
check the pinned messages about the greyed-out continue button.
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
im not 100% sure but I think it's like the first game. 11000
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.
I see the game has english support only. Where can we help in translating it? Are there any official links to submit yet?
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
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 ?
I had the same issue, thought I fixed it, and then it went back to not working
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?
Guys
I got 9 "tougher times" and I was killed
How?!
They are fixed?
It's 135% of blocking
So why?
when i open console and try to give myself cheats i cannot seem to find any way to enable them
same
Tougher times has a unique formula for stacking block chance iirc
` Clicked but cant open it haha
no I join in game everything works after a lil it's like I get kicked without notification or anything and i'm back at the menu page
if you're on qwerty then it's ctrl + alt + `
Yo devs, I keep falling through the floor in the winter level
somehow my cursor is extremely laggy when in the game is there way a to fix that?
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
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
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
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
Has anyone experienced the targeting square disappearing for Artificers Snapfreeze?
so when Im in a private call on discord and starting ror2, my partner reports my voice as distorted
"like a long old fart"
quote end
Still getting DC'D each game
Well this server is pointless without any follow up / confirmation of the issue. Gl bai
Can't get passed this screen (can't even boot up game)
Maybe it's a problem with Unity? @gloomy rain
Tried run as admin no luck
@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.
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
Hello
when im joining my fiends game i have blackscreen and disconnect how do i fix this?
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.
is the game supposed to randomly boot you out when two people in your squad die?
If the lobby host leaves the game, it boots everyone else out of their lobby.
anyone fixed it yet? kinda want to play the game kek
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.
Can we have maybe a reconnect button? Or a reconnect feature?
antiviruses are overzealous, especially when it comes to unity games
@simple wraith did all bove not working
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.
Why does my cursor just look at the ground when I boot the game?
I will look upwards and it slides back down
It's defaulting your mouse position to the bottom of your screen.
will they add a split screen? me an my brother played the first one alot like that
Is there any fix?
Dunno how to fix that issue, but it sounds like the game is defaulting your mouse to the bottom of your screen on launch.
@simple wraith i restart both
It even does that when I play with controller
i can be contcted to other pplz but with friend not working \
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).
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
@woeful kelp Check pins (upper right corner) message 2 for your issue.
for all who got connection problems, try to use hamachi with ur corrupted friend who cant connect. it works for me
We tried to create game both, and join between them - not working
Definitely sounds like a networking error between you two. Have they tried the same catch-all solutions? (restart game, computer, modem, and the like?)
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.
Yeap we did
If I get the characters through the modification of steams files, will there be any repercussion?
Crippling guilt and a generally unpleasant aura from people who've found out.
In game I am stuck always looking downwards, on both controller and keyboard. In addition the menu mouse sensitivity is absurdly high
So I won't get like banned?
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.)
Alright, I just am having really bad luck with trying to find the merc ๐
I won't though !!
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).
i have really bad lag, all my settings are set to low and i still can barely play, any suggestions
Ye I know how to get him, I just haven't gotten the "celestial orb" to appear AND be able to finish my teleporter
Patience will be more rewarding than desperation.
Check pins, message 3. Compare your graphics card to specs of the game. That may be your issue.
@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.
anyone getting an issue of the game freezing for a few seconds when you pick up an item
I get that on my desktop but not my laptop
does the game run well for you?
@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
