#

@dull blaze would be worth trying a restart in case there are somehow multiple instances of the process sapping resources

#

@dull blaze other than that I dont know for now

dull blaze
#

yeah I already tried that haha, maybe one of the devs will have an idea

covert epoch
#

@dull blaze There's only 2 or 3 of them, so give them some time. Lol poor guys are probably swamped right now trying to get everyone fixed up.

fast minnow
#

does anybody know where skills of characters are saved in the game files?

covert epoch
#

@fast minnow theorycraft may know, ask there or game discussion maybe

wicked mango
#

@fast minnow what do you mean by skills

tribal mango
#

Not sure if this has been discussed, why are the multiplayer lobbies so buggy? Are they gonna fix this?

hushed cosmos
#

please help, i cannot find out how to actually start playing. my main page menu does not really do anything other than let me change the settings

#

how do i get a character and start playing?

grim cloud
#

You tried reinstalling the game?

hushed cosmos
#

yes

grim cloud
#

are all of your graphics drivers updated?

hushed cosmos
#

it takes about 30 seconds to redownload, ive tried twice

#

checking drivers atm

grim cloud
#

k

hushed cosmos
#

must be a driver issue, windows device manager keeps crashing when i check updates...

grim cloud
#

probably...

wicked mango
#

What GPU?

#

When the screen displays text like that your system timezone is bad btw

#

So reset your clock to UTC then set it back to your local time zone

rigid cradle
#

Me and my friend cannot play together if one of us is hosting. We are like blocked from each other for some reason. We have tryed everything so far and nothing is fixing it

wicked mango
#

Do either of you have a VPN on

rigid cradle
#

We found a kinda solution

#

launching the game in administrator mode fix the issue but we cannot have the steam overlay

severe bronze
#

hello, a french translate is planned?

light goblet
#

Day 2, still crashes every time I launch. My drivers are up to date and I've restarted my computer and verified my local game files countless times. Once again it worked fine all yesterday morning :/

balmy merlin
#

does anyone know what causes this issue?

#

i can barely play for 10 minutes without crashing and getting this window

versed dagger
#

Any fix to the unable to hit continue button bug yet?

stable blaze
#

@balmy merlin I've been having the same issue, tried pretty much every fix I could read up on online but haven't had any luck so far.

balmy merlin
#

it sucks, cause i cant play the game without it crashing 10 mins in

dire hill
#

So I'm positive performance issues are not limited by lacking hardware capacity - my CPU and GPU usage are both low (high 50% range), the game is not using an excess of memory on either end, but the entire thing still lags heavily when processing masses of enemies and on-hit effects.

This is a slightly overclocked GTX1070 Max-Q (200 on core), i7-8750H downclocked slightly to a cap of 3.7GHz instead of 3.9 because at 3.9 the game pushes it over the thermal throttling limit of 95 degrees with no noticeable performance gain, 1x16GB RAM.

FPS limited to 60, which is hard limiting GPU usage, but not improving performance in a way that lets it hit 60 and stay there. Medium hard shadows, full textures and VFX culling, medium LOD, no foliage wind or SSAO, immediate low corpses. This is the third or fourth loop on drizzle, freezing on item pickup manifested about halfway through.

clear lantern
#

@dire hill same thing for me i run a 1800x with 1080ti low usage of my hardware and in result really bad fps

dire hill
#

Have you noticed really high temperatures despite low usage?

#

My CPU acts like it's being pushed to the limit, even if it's obviously not being utilized fully.

clear lantern
#

nope in fact my gpu fans and cpu radiators fan barely spins while playng risk of rain

#

i get 50degreese maximum on my gpu

dire hill
#

desktop?

clear lantern
#

yeah

dire hill
#

this is a gaming laptop - the GPU runs cool generally, barely goes past 55 at 60fps lock and maybe 70? tops at 120, but the CPU runs like it's on fire despite low util% on each core

clear lantern
#

all other games that are running my gpu and cpu at 100% can go up to 70 degrees on both

#

it's quite strange actually

dire hill
#

It's almost as if it's making the CPU work, but not putting the work to full use.

clear lantern
#

many people are having my issue literally no heat and low cpu gpu usage, many have tons of heat and lot of usage and then some like you have lowusage but high temps

dire hill
#

nerf Blazing CPU

rigid cradle
#

Any one having issue starting a game with a friend? He cannot select character or ready up if I am hosting

sweet venture
#

IIRC Unity is pretty inefficient which would explain your CPU being taxed

dire hill
#

Sounds like a net problem, have either of you ever had connection issues anywhere else, or generally poor internet/long distance?

#

Smallz, that doesn't explain the actual usage/commit not breaking 55% despite temperatures being >90 at base clock

rigid cradle
#

@dire hill We are both from the same city, we never had any problem like that and we both tried going on our mobile data and it is still not working

dire hill
#

It's not even being taxed, it's just being forced to run at high temperatures and not directing that power anywhere that I can tell.

sweet venture
#

ah, that's true. I didn't read the full issue so didn't see the low usage and high temps

cerulean talon
#

use a 4gb patcher

dire hill
#

So it's like the game is telling the processor to send maximum output, then drawing half of that

novel ermine
#

so this is a little different then normal tech support, i asked a friend if they can make a mod for artificer; to give her cool down that scales with attack speed. i want to ask for location help in the files so we can make this mod.

dire hill
#

Uhh... is ROR2 actually a 32-bit exe?

#

would a 4gb patcher even do anything? I see it using my RAM perfectly well to a reasonable degree

warm aspen
#

Hello, I have a problem with hosting or joining private game. When i join in lobby for character selection, my character is not loaded and i cannot select any character. My name is displayed in the party list tho and in chat is written that i connected.

#

Same thing happens to friends that try to connect to my private game hosted.

hushed cosmos
#

After much work, my problem does not stem from a driver issue.

warm aspen
#

But it seems to work fine if i host game and then randoms join (Enter QuickPlay)

hushed cosmos
#

please help, i cannot find out how to actually start playing. my main page menu does not really do anything other than let me change the settings.how do i get a character and start playing?

sweet venture
#

have you verified game files? If that doesn't work, try reinstalling as well

hushed cosmos
#

i have reinstalled twice (takes about 30 seconds to redownload on steam) checked my drivers, checked the files, and checked google with no luck

warm aspen
#

I verified and it doesnt solve problem, reinstal doesnt solve it eighter.

swift tusk
#

Is it know that there are performance issues on a RTX 2060 or should I try and figure out why my GTX 780 ran the game better?

sweet venture
#

other than telling you to just run through the list of fixes in the pinned messages, I'm not sure what to say other than to wait. Unfortunately, this is an Early Access title that's been out for less than a week, the devs are still working on bugs that were found on day 1

hushed cosmos
#

i cant even play the game

#

not once

#

title_singleplayer goes to a blank background

sweet venture
#

@swift tusk try disabling vsync in the Nvidia control panel if you haven't already, I remember people had problems with that

swift tusk
#

I just saw that in the pinned messages. Should do my due diligence before posting next time 😛

sweet venture
#

L. Ron, try the solution for the EARLY_ACCESS_DISCLAIMER message, it might have a similar cause

hushed cosmos
#

ok ill find this solution, wehre is it?

languid frost
#

any way to edit a savefile? mine got a bit corrupted

sweet venture
#

it's pinned

midnight tangle
#

Any workaround for the "cant click the continue button" since i went to sleep!?

sweet venture
#

did you already try the pinned solution, MagSato?

languid frost
#

my save file didnt disappear

hushed cosmos
#

@sweet venture where do i find the pinned msg

midnight tangle
#

checking now.

languid frost
#

and i already tried restarting and verifying

#

i simply cant play arti lol... i cant select her in char selection

#

and challenges say that i havent unlocked her yet

sweet venture
#

@hushed cosmos if you're on desktop, there should be an icon that looks like a push-pin at the top of the window. If you're on mobile, click on the three dots in the top-right corner and select "Pinned Messages"

languid frost
#

ah i found it

slow mirage
#

hey so i just bought ror2 last night, played for a few hours and unlocked a buncha items and a character, and today when i loaded the game my profile that i created yesterday and played on was just gone

#

so none of my unlocks and stuff saved

swift tusk
#

@sweet venture So my issue wasn't v-sync. It's because I have one monitor hooked to my onboard video and one to the graphics card while I wait for my new monitor to get here. I had the onboard monitor set to the primary because reasons, so it was trying to run the game with the onboard regardless of what screen it's on. I switched to the other monitor for primary and now it runs like a dream

#

just a fun little story 😛

sweet venture
#

lmao, so the 2060 wasn't actually what was struggling

swift tusk
#

lol nope

sweet venture
#

what kind of frames did you get on the iGPU?

swift tusk
#

I didn't have a counter up, but it was probably less than 10. It took almost 2 seconds for the cursor to move

dire hill
#

@swift tusk my laptop is trying to offload usage to the igpu even when set to use the dedicated, it's bizarre

swift tusk
#

Yeah that one is strange 😛 Mine was just blind supidity 😛

sweet venture
#

I see posts like that on /r/buildapc all the time tbh

versed dagger
#

I just fixed the corrupted save in my .XML file just now and now don't have my profile from before, what do? I had steam cloud enabled beforehand

midnight tangle
#

deleted save file fixed the continue bug for me

slow mirage
#

so i should try deleting the save file and making a fresh one?

sweet venture
#

it might re-download from cloud backup, so it's worth a shot

slow mirage
#

aight

#

i'll try that

hushed cosmos
#

This is frusturating:

slow mirage
#

actually, where is the save data? i don't know

sweet venture
#

should be in the Steam data folder, check the first pinned message for details on location

slow mirage
#

o thanks

hushed cosmos
#

I can start the game, add/make/load a profile. The next menu screen will allow me change the settings. The only other menu option that works is the Title_MultiPlayer, which takes me to a new menu page, where none of the links work.

I understand it is early access, but I cannot even access the early acess...

#

I have updated drivers, reinstalled the game, checked the pinned msgs

sweet venture
#

that should't be driver-related, it has to be something with either the engine or the game itself

#

try reinstalling Visual C++ 2015 maybe? instructions on that are in pinned messages as well, but I'm just speculating at this point

crisp frigate
#

And if you havent yet reboot pc can sometimes do wonders

hushed cosmos
#

So i start the game, i can select a profile (the one i made, or survivor)

#

then the next screen's menu shows singleplayer, multiplayer ect.

#

single player goes to a blank background

#

multiplayer goes to a menu where none of the links work

#

after clicking a few times, i cannot use any of the main menu, forced to alt+f4

midnight tangle
#

First time ive gotten booted to the lobby in the last three days. common?

hushed cosmos
patent raptor
#

Hello!

#

I'm getting constant random crashes while playing the game. Does anyone else have the same problem?

solemn token
#

does someone know

#

how to get the files back

#

or just get new ones

#

and play

#

normaly

wicked mango
#

What files

solemn token
#

they got corrupted

#

gone

keen vine
#

@hushed cosmos did you try reinstalling

solemn token
#

i can launch the game

#

i just cant click continue

#

cus theres no account to log onto

wicked mango
#

Easiest way would be to make sure your steam cloud is enabled

solemn token
#

it was and the first thing people told me cloud corrupted the files xD

#

i couldnt get my files back

#

even with reinstalling

hushed cosmos
#

@keen vine - yes, three times now. the game downloads in about 15 seconds so reinstalling is quite fast

solemn token
#

and verifying local files

#

im just gonna try and ask my friend to copy the files cus he has everything same except the name

#

im gonna change the name and i hope it works

#

in the file itself

dire hill
#

@ebon kiln you may need to ask for help here, this is the appropriate channel for broken matching

hushed cosmos
#

what is supposed to happen after i click single player

#

i really wanna try this game

orchid flame
#

does anyone know where the saves are located?

wicked mango
#

@solemn token that should fix the problem yes

solemn token
#

hell yea

wicked mango
#

If you still need an xml in a few hours I can give you a save as well

ebon kiln
#

with mobile hotspot can't click Ready in game

wicked mango
#

That's a lag problem

ebon kiln
#

mobile hotspot is better than my home router

solemn token
#

FINALLY I CAN GET INTO THE GAME

#

YES

wicked mango
#

Nice

solemn token
#

fug i gotta unlock half of the items again tho xD

#

there any cheaper way to do it?

wicked mango
#

You can add the unlock flags into your XML file

stone steppe
#

@wicked mango Where is that located?

#

Also is there a way to reset stats or the save file?

wicked mango
#

You can make a new profile and the new profile will have all new stats

stone steppe
#

Ha, all for simple solutions so I'll take it. I usually just set the one profile and forget about it. Was looking earlier for the stats/save file and couldn't find it, where are the unlocks you mentioned located at?

wicked mango
#

So the XML file doesn't actually have the unlocks listed in them, it shows you unlocks you've already earned only

#

But the save file located in the pins will be where you'll add unlocks to

formal stirrup
#

Hey, so the game uses 99% of my GPU when I'm just sitting idle in the main menu

wicked mango
#

Yep

formal stirrup
#

I feel like this isn't all too great for my PC, so is this just how the game works normally?

next pumice
#

What is your build?

wicked mango
#

Turn on vsync

#

You don't need to be rendering 300 frames if you can only see 60

zenith edge
#

Having issues connecting to friends, is MP p2p based or server hosted?

formal stirrup
#

Didn't help much

wicked mango
#

P2P

stone steppe
#

Thanks @wicked mango

wicked mango
#

What GPU do you have schnitzleri

zenith edge
#

Is there anything I can do to see a connection attempt? e.g. console or other

wicked mango
#

I don't know if the console outputs any info but hold Ctrl+alt+tilde and it will show a debug console

zenith edge
#

thanks for that, it will help a lot

formal stirrup
#

Hang on while I try to remember where to find my GPU stats on PC

wicked mango
#

Use task manager

#

Do you have win10?

formal stirrup
#

Yeah

wicked mango
#

Use the second tab in your task manager and click on gpu

#

Should let you see which one you have

formal stirrup
#

Oh right, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti

zenith edge
#

Interesting, the steam invite doesnt appear to be registering as accepted

wicked mango
#

@formal stirrup you can turn vsync back off, but you're gonna have to deal with the gpu usage

formal stirrup
#

Well if it makes no difference..

wicked mango
#

It's gonna cap because your gpu isn't super powerful

formal stirrup
#

Hm

zenith edge
#

clear

formal stirrup
#

Well let's hope the system requirements are lowered by the end of this

wicked mango
#

They might

#

But honestly 750 is below budget by today's standards so I wouldn't count on it

#

My computer's parts cost roughly 300 dollars nowadays and I get over 100fps with vsync off

formal stirrup
#

I'm not getting a new PC every two years either

zenith edge
#

get a new gpu then

wicked mango
#

^

formal stirrup
#

Well I will, eventually

wicked mango
#

Sorry to say you're running WAY beyond old hardware

#

That's like a 30 dollar GPU

formal stirrup
#

Well it runs Doom 4 fine, so this looks more like poor optimization to me

wicked mango
#

Well alright bud

languid frost
#

lmfao

orchid flame
#

I find that really hard to believe

wicked mango
#

Sorry cel shading isn't cheap enough for you

#

I have to voice my own doubts

languid frost
formal stirrup
#

Do what you will, I guess not much can be done about the GPU thing at the moment anyway

languid frost
#

game runs at 60fps on 100mins on monsoon

wicked mango
#

Your gpu is running as intended

orchid flame
#

shit how did i see my gpu again

zenith edge
#

@formal stirrup what is your actual full rig?

wicked mango
#

If it's reaching 100% capacity then it's doing it's job

languid frost
#

try closing background stuff

orchid flame
#

mines a polish toaster with a usb cable drilled in the back

languid frost
#

i have an i3 dual core and this game runs pretty well

zenith edge
#

lets not get carried away here

wicked mango
#

i5 2400, GTX 1050, 24GB DDR3 RAM and a 7200RPM hard drive

zenith edge
#

if someone else has the same GPU and is getting reasonable performance lets see other option

wicked mango
#

Get 120 fps in a 2 hour run

orchid flame
#

nvidia geforce 705A

zenith edge
#

I play it in 4k so im happy haha

orchid flame
#

i run 800x600 with min settings for 32 fps

#

i hate my life

languid frost
#

kek

wicked mango
#

Does unity 4k ACTUALLY work now?

languid frost
#

at least you can play it right

zenith edge
#

no lol

wicked mango
#

Unity 2017 didn't support it

orchid flame
#

im still mad i cant use multiplayer

languid frost
#

@wicked mango multiple people have been reporting that this game runs well on 4k

#

without performance loss

zenith edge
#

still get an fps hit, but im not expecting anyone to be 4k ready for another year yet

languid frost
#

4k extrawide works too

wicked mango
#

I mean if you have a good gpu that's really no extra strain on your CPU so

orchid flame
#

does anyone know how to fix this shit where if I join a multiplayer game the ready timer is stuck at 0 and i cant pick a character

wicked mango
#

Get better internet

orchid flame
#

thats the one thing about my pc that doesnt suck cock

wicked mango
#

Tell your friend to get better internet

orchid flame
#

who said anything about having friends

wicked mango
#

Try it with a friend lobby and not QuickPlay

brave pumice
wicked mango
#

Just wait a little bit

orchid flame

DREAM PATCH NOTE

#

BLAZING ELITES ARE FUCKING GONE

wicked mango
#

Dream patch note
Blazing elites now shoot 100 emojis
Bandit, sniper and HAN-D are in the game
Stone Titan's lasers aren't obnoxious

frigid halo
#

wait is there actually a patch?

brave pumice
#

Yeah

frigid halo
#

sik

#

weird im not getting anything

#

maybe i already did it and it wasnt in my list

orchid flame
#

it took a while to appear for me aswell

frigid halo
#

build id if anyone is in game?

orchid flame
#

3678136

frigid halo
#

kk i think im good then

hushed cosmos
#

I have narrowed down my problem, by watching other people play. My game's mainscreen menu is not loading properly

wicked mango
#

Yup

#

Did you change your system time?

hushed cosmos
#

how can i fix this (i have reinstalled, i have restarted, i have uptodate drivers, i have verified files, i have checked pinned

#

system time>

#

jesus ill check that

frigid halo
#

honestly wat i want to see in patch is host migration

wicked mango
#

Close the game first

#

Relaunch it after you change it

orchid flame
#

3/4 in lobby. Launching in 21611s...

frigid halo
#

hate when host dies then leaves

brave pumice
#

Omg I've got to know what's in that patch. Host migration has to be one of the things, yeah.

orchid flame
#

the timer stuck at 0:00 bug still persists and i want to die

brave pumice
#

Oh and I wouldn't mind the "teleporter spawning inside walls" and what not thing to go away.

wicked mango
#

Multiplayer desynchronization is inevitable

orchid flame
#

wait

#

thats what it is?

wicked mango
#

I have never seen teleporter spawn in walls

#

Yes

brave pumice
#

That's the point. You are stuck on the island then

orchid flame
#

but it happens literally every single time

wicked mango
#

Desynchronization is every multiplayer issue

#

Yep

#

The game has practically no checks to make sure all players are seeing the same thing

orchid flame
#

eh

#

cant stay mad at hopoo

hushed cosmos
#

none of the links do anything

#

any hints on how to fix

distant warren
#

Question, any reason as to why near wave 11-15 or so once you get to large enemy groups the game starts to stutter? past that point it becomes so bad i cant see where i am getting hit from and die but my pc specs should easily push past 20+

Specs:
1080TI
i7-8700k
32Gb Ram

cobalt zealot
#

@distant warren the game just needs some optimizimg to be done, there is a reason on why it still says early access.

winter moth
#

Bud I want to say it's your cooling being insufficient.

distant warren
#

Ahh yeah that i understand, i have just seen others going past that and not having the same issue i am having so im wondering if its a setup issue, settings, or just a optimization thing. I would like to think they tested up to round 20 due to an item being locked behind that

winter moth
#

I am way under your specs, on a laptop, and it's very likely I can run more rounds than you LULW

#

Because external cooling thingy

cobalt zealot
#

@distant warren maby ur pc inst jusr rhb enough?

#

w8 let mer e rewrite the message

winter moth
#

GPUs and CPUs throttle themselves if they get past a certain temperature.

cobalt zealot
#

@distant warren maby your pc isnt rgb enough to run the game?

distant warren
#
  • 3 - im trying to get a serious response.... i love the game and want to unlock the content but with this issue i cant, hence why im asking in #ror2-tech-support
tame hinge
#

Try using Steam Launch Options as well. That is not an official fix, however it has helped me.

sweet venture
#

do you have vsync disabled yet? Because that's a big factor from what I've heard

#

you have to disable in the Nvidia control panel as well as the in-game settings

winter moth
#

Am I not serious rooWtf

cobalt zealot
#

@tame hinge what kindow configurations did u do ti fix it pm me

tame hinge
#

Steam Launch Options for allocating more Memory mainly.

cobalt zealot
#

@distant warren my cousin has 1080ti as well and he gets the lag as well in latter levels, just so u know ur not alone

#

@distant warren and some people can say that u need to do some thing in settings and all kinds of other configurations but that wont help a lot, cause the main reson is as Isaid u just need to w8 out till the game gets optimized enough

distant warren
#

Vsync was on i will try it off and as for the manual memory fix if you have a tutorial somewhere i will try that as well

sweet venture
#

it's not an optimization issue, I haven't had any frame issues on a RX 580 on both Windows 10 and Void Linux (through Proton/Wine)

wicked mango
#

What is the current Steam Build ID

ebon kiln
#

3678136

wicked mango
#

Okay, so there was no patch

#

I see

winter moth
#

@cobalt zealot Are you just ignoring me

crude vessel
#

Anyone else desyncing a ton?

winter moth
#

On multiplayer maybe, on single, that's your machine.

cyan plinth
#

Is there a way to save progress or will I have to restart Everytime I get back into the game?

winter moth
#

Keep going until you die rooRawr

cyan plinth
#

I'm talking about survivor unlocks, challenges, and and items discovered.

sweet venture
#

that should save automatically, if data is being lost there's a problem

Found the issue, for some reason my gpu jumps to 75% usage from 25%

thorny epoch
#

how do i join a clipboard lobby, my option for it is blacked out

dry heron
#

@distant warren i have a 2080 and my fps are pretty poor as well. apparently the game doesnt handle good rigs well or something. its in their announcments even

#

in the menu 90%+ of my gpu is used while ingame it drops to like 30%...

distant warren
#

Darn....... yeah i could see that

magic nest
#

I corrupted my save file, and then deleted the xml in hope it would generate another (wasn't far anyway) now i'm stuck in ThankYou early acess screen, and integrity does not recover the xml file, so the pinned message doesn't help

warm cairn
#

So, an admin pinned a message about the camera always pointing down, but Im not using a controller, and I dont know what vojy is.

#

Nevermind, I figured it out

hushed cosmos
#

so i pirated the game to see if the game files would be differnt than the steam version

#

same effect

#

i think something isnt updated

#

what does this game run on? (like should i update java?)

warped violet
#

It's running on unity

hushed cosmos
#

im trying to ask, when i install stuff sometimes i has to install something at the same time, like java or some runtime software

warped violet
#

nope

hushed cosmos
#

did this install require anything other than the base game files? cause my files are 100% right, i just cant seem to get them to load properly

sweet venture
#

have you reinstalled Visual C++ 2015?

#

at this point it has to be a library issue

Any idea why I get kicked out of a game. Has happened more than a couple times. In the middle of a multiplayer session, i get kicked to main menu, no error nothing

orchid flame
#

is the gold portal random or do i ahve to do some shit beforehand

hushed basin
#

random

orchid flame
#

@thorny dirge from what ive heard discussing another bug the game has issues with multiplayer syncing or some shit

sweet venture
#

@thorny dirge if the host quits or has a connection problem, it will drop you to the main menu

orchid flame
#

hard to believe this game isnt even a week old

sweet venture
#

what makes you say that, Pawoss?

thorny dirge
#

Oh, I was 30 mins in a game and got kicked

orchid flame
#

i have this annoying fucking bug where I cannot join multiplayer

#

the timer is stuck at 0:00 and i cant pick a character

@sweet venture thanks for the answer, im trying that and hoping to hell its the issue

sweet venture
#

some people had to uninstall Visual C++ 2017 before reinstalling VC++ 2015 for some reason, it seems that Unity is weird with its dependencies

hushed cosmos
#

interesting, ill try that if 2015 doesnt work

rigid shuttle
#

So, I can't get past the create profile screen, i keep clicking add, and nothing happens, so how does one fix?

hushed cosmos
#

(thats basically my problem, welcome to the club)

sweet venture
#

MrIDontKnow, try verifying game files through Steam first, then re-installing, then re-installing Visual C++ 2015

#

more detailed instructions are in the pinned posts

hushed cosmos
#

i refuse to refund this game cause it looks amazing and the first one was great. but this is frusturating

orchid flame
#

a patch should be coming soon, stay strong

sweet venture
#

as I've mentioned half a billion times: it's Early Access from an indie company, I don't think they even had the ability to do an alpha testing group

rigid shuttle
#

Where do I install the Visuals?

frigid yew
#

Hey guys, whats your optimal Nvidia settings to run the game?

orchid flame
#

i sacrifice all things graphical in the name of performance

rigid shuttle
#

^^^

frigid yew
#

ahaha fair enough

surreal patio
#

what do i do if i cant press the continue button after i launch the game?

sweet venture
#

@rigid shuttle check the pinned messages for info on reinstalling Visual C++ 2015

frigid yew
#

@surreal patio read the pinned messages

rigid shuttle
#

I found out how, my bad

sweet venture
#

@frigid yew disable vsync no matter what, it apparently kills performance

frigid yew
#

Yeah I already have, btoh on the game and in Nvida control panel

#

But half the things in the Nvidia control panel, I don't actually know what it does so i avoid messing with them normally, but I really want this game to run as well as I can, considering how hectic it can get

heady night
#

Can ror2 be played from steam with someone who does not have steam?

frigid yew
#

Wait how does that work?

sweet venture
#

it's only available on Steam IIRC

#

how else would they get it?

frigid yew
#

How can they play the game if they don't have Steam? unless it's a ripped versin

heady night
#

sorry i'm bad at english

crude vessel
#

Has anyone else had issues with network lagg/delay when tons of things are on screen?

heady night
#

one with steam version and other with pirated version

frigid yew
#

@crude vessel you mean with FPS lag? or actual network lag?

#

@heady night regardless of game, Ripped versions of game usually don't allow multiplayer, and RoR2 is one of those game

heady night
#

ok

crude vessel
#

Actual network lagg. There is significant ping difference but that isn't the problem. 200 ping is fine

sweet venture
#

even if it would allow multiplayer, it wouldn't be officially supported

heady night
#

thanks

crude vessel
#

The problem is when it de-syncs like 10/15 seconds

sweet venture
#

and asking the devs for support for something that you (or your friend) didn't pay for is just rude

frigid yew
#

^^^

heady night
#

sorry

#

:P

robust zealot
frigid yew
#

It's not a particularly expensive game, but if you' or your friends are on a budget, you could try wait for a steam deal or use humble bundle to see if there are cheaper prices, I'm not a fan of pirated games

sweet venture
#

especially not pirating indie games

#

small developers struggle to survive as it is, not getting paid for their work makes things worse. If the game is no longer available for purchase though, then pirating is a viable option, just don't expect support.

stone wraith
#

@crude vessel Sometimes if the host is GPU lagging, it can cause latency issues for the other players.

crude vessel
#

So it would be wise to lower the graphics completely?

frigid yew
#

If you're computer can handle the load, it's perfectly fine, but since this game is very hectic in the late game

stone wraith
#

Not saying that, not saying that's what your issue is either, just something to think about.

frigid yew
#

it's wise to lower graphics in general

crude vessel
#

Well the game was fine for the first few days it has only really started to happen now.

sweet venture
#

start with lowest graphics settings and gradually increase until you're just below what causes lag

crude vessel
#

So I'm not sure if anything has been updated/changed in the last few days

sweet venture
#

no updates to the game itself as far as I'm aware

crude vessel
#

aye I didn't think so

stone wraith
#

Many times, especially in voxel games, lots of stuff on the screen means much higher CPU load, which can cause these issues too. Often times I find CPU to be the bottleneck, not GPU.

native haven
#

hey so i bought the game a few days ago and am having an issue where my cursor is constantly moving down, ive done all that the help FAQ suggesting is there anything else I can try to fix this issue?

sweet venture
#

you might have missed a controller in Device Manager, did you check under Human Interface Devices?

stone wraith
#

@native haven First thing I'd check is if you have a controller or joystick plugged in, and unplug it if so.

native haven
#

there are a few things called HID-compliant game controllers

#

is that what i am looking for?

sweet venture
#

is that under the HID section?

native haven
#

yeah

sweet venture
#

it might be, not sure enough to tell you yes though

native haven
#

there is also one under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers labled SATA AHCI controller

sweet venture
#

don't touch that

frigid yew
#

Nope nope

#

don't touch those

sweet venture
#

the term "controller" can either refer to a gaming controller (hardware) or the driver that controlls a specific I/O stream

stone wraith
#

You can always open device manager > right click them, uninstall (don't check the delete driver box though) > and they'll reinstall the next time you plug them in if need be.

frigid yew
#

Most of the controllers in those sections are actual controllers for the computer not an external controller

#

and you don't want to mess with those

stone wraith
#

SATA is your hard drive, don't touch that one

sweet venture
#

they should only be under the HID section

frigid yew
#

If there's no category for "Controllers" itself, then chances are you dont have an external controller driver installed

native haven
#

ok so should i try removing the ones in HID

#

?

frigid yew
#

wait wait

#

ill send you a list of all the ones I have, and the ones I have that you also have, don't touch them

native haven
#

ok

frigid yew
#

because I've never used an external controller on my laptop

sweet venture
#

different hardware may have different controller devices though

frigid yew
#

they might, but the ones on my laptop are factory setting

stone wraith
#

Tony you can have them just snip a ss, might be easier.

native haven
#

would a screen shot of the HID controllers help?

frigid yew
#

yeah that might help actually

native haven
frigid yew
#

those are a lot of controllers damn

stone wraith
#

I'd uninstall the bottom ones that end in game controller

frigid yew
#

^^

native haven
#

alright

stone wraith
#

Just remember, don't delete the driver if it prompts you

native haven
#

it gave me the option to disable them instead of uninstalling them so i did that

#

is that fine as well?

frigid yew
#

Yep

stone wraith
#

Should be fine, you'll just have to manually activate them the next time you want to use them probably.

frigid yew
#

but also, if you do happen to uninstall a driver that you need by accident, restarting your computer tends to reinstall them anyways

native haven
#

its working properly now thank you both so much!

frigid yew
#

👌 glad to help

stone wraith
#

Only if the drivers are native to the OS, if it's on the device or requires a manual install, it won't.

#

Nice

orchid flame
#

is it a known issue that the console command for cheats doesnt work?

fading drift

Do we have a time table for when Risk of Rain 2 will be supported on Mac?

are there console commands for cheats even?

topaz garnet
#

I'm having issues with multiplayer, whenever i join my friend or he joins me its just a black screen. Any workaround? I've tried validating files at least 3x

orchid flame
#

is this just a lie

#

cant use kb+m and controller for local play

stone wraith
#

@topaz garnet I've had that happen, usually it's the host, they have to recreate the lobby a few times.

topaz garnet

alright thanks

I've been having an issue where my steam client freezes up for 5-10 seconds and the steam games do the same thing. Any ideas for a fix? already uninstalled steam and erased all of its files. Reinstalling didn't help

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 :>

question: currently turrets dont shoot enemies that spawned after youve built the turrets (until they get attacked). is this a bug or feature?

jovial bluff
#

try allowing it through your firewall and running as admin

#

@silent arch bug

mighty plaza
#

hm, oke, i'll try that, thanks

sweet venture
#

@mighty plaza your GPU is nowhere near the recommended specs, which is why you're struggling. Try disabling vsync if you haven't, I've heard that helps, but tbh you're going to be pushing it no matter what

silent arch
#

ok perfect, hopefully it gets fixed soon

mighty plaza
#

@sweet venture vsync is off

Is there any fix for unity crash? My friend doesn't seem to find any way around it

vital current
#

I've gotten a very weird bug when playing RoR 2
The lower resolutions started just being like the biggest resolutions but making everything extremely blurry
Which is bad
Also every time I verify my game cache it says that one file is missing --> redownloads it, game is still blurry on launch, then verify game cache says the same thing. I've tried reinstalling the game entirely and deleting the .config file in steamapps/(riskofrain2filepath) but nothing changes

#

Essentially, when I select 320x200 the screen displays the game at around 1100x600 but it's very blurry

coral token
#

Got all my stuff back YES!!!!!!!

jovial bluff
#

if anyone has a bugged save, MESSAGE ME. i will edit it to what it was pre-corruption

vital current
jovial bluff
#

@vital current whats your config file

vital current
#

Yeah I deleted a config file and verified game integrity, but I'll share it anyway

frigid yew
#

@mighty plaza do you have vsync off in your Nvidia control panel too? Also, under the Nvidia control panel, you can set select RoR2 and make it so you're running the game at maximum power settings, which will boost your fps

vital current
#

.config.cfg in this filepath, right?

#

I'll pm you

maiden ibex
#

is there a way I can get the on-screen keybinds to show keyboard and mouse instead of controller binds?

frigid yew
#

are you playing with a controller?

#

or do you have a controller plugged in?

maiden ibex
#

I have a controller wireless dongle plugged in, but the controller is off with batteries taken out

dense carbon
#

is there any particular reason why my game always returns to 1080p resolution every time i open the game monsoon

#

in windowed.

frigid yew
#

@maiden ibex Chances are, the game/steam is recognizing it as you playing with a controller instead of mouse and keyboard, so you could disable your controller driver and try it again

maiden ibex
#

I'll have a go and get back to you, thanks :D

mighty plaza
#

@frigid yew vsync if off and settings are made for the best perfomance

frigid yew
#

and the framerates are still bad?

maiden ibex
#

disabled the controller drivers, restarted and I'm seeing this instead of the bindings, it still also shows on screen :(

mighty plaza
#

@frigid yew yeah like 20-40 fps in game

frigid yew
#

@maiden ibex do you have Vjoy installed? seems like it could cause some mouse and keyboard issues. If not, my last suggestion would be to go into steam settings, going to controller settings and see if you can mess with or disable anything that might cause it in game

vapid flame
#

Update broke lobbies

#

nice

frigid yew
#

@mighty plaza just to double check, in your Nvidia control panel, you go to program settings, select risk of rain 2, and under "select the preferred graphics processor" you have high performance selected right?

maiden ibex
#

If I have a HOTAS setup connected, could that do it?

mighty plaza
#

@frigid yew yah

frigid yew
#

and under power management mode: maximum performance, virtual sync disabled, "texture filtering - quality" set it to performance

#

@maiden ibex honestly mate, i don't even know what HOTAS is supposed to stand for 😄

mighty plaza
#

@frigid yew yep

frigid yew
#

How much RAM do you have installed? if you're not getting more FPS, it could just be that your device isn't powerful enough to run it any higher than 40 fps

mighty plaza
#

6 gb

manic coral
#

this game shits on your fps

maiden ibex
#

@frigid yew problem solved, unplugging all controller devices other than mouse and keyboard solves the problem. Guess on-screen binds changing on the fly could be a future QoL thing. Thanks for all the help

manic coral
#

im running OC GTX 980 ti with 16 GB ram and a 1700x ryzen and i get shit frames

mighty plaza
#

i think my gpu just not strong enough for this game

#

rip

manic coral
#

so everyone getting shit frames dont worry. you are not alone

frigid yew
#

My laptop is modded to all hell with a really powerful operating system and I still only get around 60fps so it could just be the game tbh

mighty plaza

hoping that it will get better one day

tender dagger
#

Anyone had a problem where your mouse is locked when you hold down a mouse button?

#

any time i hold left right or middle click it locks my perspective

manic coral
#

I've talked about this multiple times already. the game doesn't know how to utilize everyones' gpu to the fuullest. ill frame drop to like 30 frames sometimes and my gpu usage will be 30% and temps super low. it's annoying af lol

royal wind
#

does anyone have a problem on the main menu

#

where the cursor sensitivity is super slow?

#

regardless of dpi or sensitivity?

hearty wharf
#

I think it's frame drops from the background

serene drum
#

where is the mage??!??!?!??!?!

feral musk

in the wizard zone

hearty wharf

she's in the shop

royal wind

how do i fix it then

#

how do i fix the menu sensitivity being super slow

serene drum
#

there isnt

#

i cant see him

#

only my friend can

#

look at the print

hearty wharf
#

then you bought her already

serene drum
#

no

sweet venture
#

there's a bug about that

serene drum
#

i dont heve

#

argh

#

there is a way to solve it?

sweet venture
#

either you have to host or buy it in solo player

royal wind
#

anyone wanna help?

#

how do i fix my menu sensitivity

#

theres no reason why it should be doing that

hearty wharf
#

lunars carry over between runs, just restart and she'll show up

#

we don't know why it's doing that man

serene drum
#

argh

#

i cant now cause i have only 10

#

ridicoulous

#

😦

hearty wharf
#

newt can show up randomly, or just get one more lunar

frigid yew
#

@royal wind theres an issue with the game currently

red patio
#

Can't connect with a friend- we played one game together and now it's like we're in a half state where it doesn't acknowledge that we've accepted eachothers invites.

frigid yew
#

where being in main menu really uses up GPU

#

which could be the issue to your fps drop and laggy mouse in menu

#

the menu is honestly the laggiest part of the game

hearty wharf
#

you "fix it" by getting a better computer

royal wind
#

can i change the amount of gpu i can use

chrome sleet
#

I still get the same connection error as before, I see people connect in the lobby but my own character select is bricked and there are no other players under the Ready button

royal wind
#

i think it might be capped out

old talon
#

so with the continue bug being fixed, does abrupt closes still corrupt the save and make it unusable?

royal wind
#

i have a 3k gaming pc, i dont need a better computer @tender briar

hearty wharf
#

ha, wrong ping

royal wind
#

can i change how much gpu it can use

#

or no

hearty wharf
#

the issue isn't less GPU, you need more GPU

royal wind
#

i know

#

and i think my pc set a limit

#

on how much gpu one application can use

#

so how can i change that

#

and its not frame drops, its just a sensitivity issue

hearty wharf
#

we don't know your specific 3k gaming rig

royal wind
#

the only slow part about the menu is the rate in which i move the mouse

#

everything else running in the background looks fine

hearty wharf
#

so we can't troubleshoot your setup

royal wind
#

like the models and everything run smoothly

chrome sleet
#

you could try fiddling with v-sync and the FPS limiter

royal wind
#

do you think it thihnks im using a controller?

#

i had a controller plugged into my computer but i unplugged it

hearty wharf
#

or you could just deal with it for the five seconds you're on the main menu per day

royal wind
#

OR you could stop being a fucking faggot and maybe try actually helping

#

what the fuck is your problem kid

#

and i wouldnt be complaining about it if it was something i could handle

#

i have to drag my mouse across my entire desk for it to move an inch

chrome sleet
#

I don't agree with the language but yeah there's no need to make people feel unwelcome just because they have a problem you personally don't know how to fix

hearty wharf
#

that sounds a lot worse than what people usually get,

frigid yew
#

I don't know if there's a way to cap GPU usage in the menu, but you can go try fiddling with your Nvidia control panel to get maximum performance in the game over quality

royal wind
#

yeah way to aggravate someone five minutes into a conversation

hearty wharf
#

have you checked what % you're getting out of your GPU already?

royal wind
#

is there a good way to be able to do that?

hearty wharf
#

task manager?

#

I think Afterburner does that too

royal wind
#

yeah its 99%

#

but im getting 60fps

frigid yew
#

in just the Menu?

royal wind
#

yes

#

i cant get past the menu

#

because where i have to select single player

#

ive been dragging my mouse across my desk for it to move one inch

#

like i tried opening the settings and messing around with shit there

#

but it took me five minutes to get there from when i launched the game

#

then another five minutes of dragging my mouse just to get to the sensitivity, and turns out there was no option anyway

#

i texted my friend who bought the game, he said he didnt have that issue

frigid yew
#

Do you use NVidia as your graphics processor?

royal wind
#

i think so

#

i have a gtx if that means yes

frigid yew
#

Go to Nvidia control panel

royal wind
#

im launching the nvidia program now

#

its geforce experience>

#

?*

hearty wharf
#

yes

royal wind
#

okay just makin sure

frigid yew
#

If you go to program settings, and select risk of rain

#

make sure you set the preferred graphics process to high performance processor

#

turn off virtual sync, Make it maximum performance under power management, select performance under texture filtering - quality

#

and anything else that could help boost performance over game quality

royal wind
#

okay but just for the record

frigid yew
#

if you're still having a laggy menu, it's probably just the game optimization issues the devs haven't figured out yet

royal wind
#

i have a fairly good prebuild with a gtx 1070 inside that has had no trouble of running games before

#

is there a chance that this could be purely game optimization

#

rather than a performance error

frigid yew
#

yeah, it's been a common issue for people with extremely powerful machines to still have FPS issues with this game

#

a lot of optimization to be done and such

#

I've got a really powerful laptop that runs most games at 100+ fps but this one caps at 60

nova turtle
#

drivers might not be up to snuff aswell. it's early access, thats a risk you're taking tho :P

frigid yew
#

To be fair, it's an alpha game so it'll hopefully get better over time

#

Oh, yeah also make sure all your graphics drivers are up to date, just in case

royal wind
#

okay thanks

#

this is really irresponsible but i haven't launched the nvidia application once

#

maybe there will be new drivers for me to install idk

#

in the two years ive owned this pc then im sure there are

frigid yew
#

Ahaha, it also doesn't hurt to make the "preferred graphics processor" to high performance in general, it just drains power faster

royal wind
#

power wont be a problem

#

thanks for the help man

frigid yew
#

no problem, just know theres a good chance that the issue is the game's optimization issues, not your computer so you'll just need to manually optimize it by fiddling with settings, graphics and stuff

orchid flame
frigid yew
#

@orchid flame Read the pinned messages

royal wind
#

where would vjoy.dll appear?

#

im reading pinned messages, i wanna see if that owuld help my case

frigid yew
#

I think it means Vjoy as a device

gilded laurel
#

After updating I cant connect to a quickplay game

frigid yew
#

so go to device manager and see if you have any drivers or controllers called Vjoy installed

#

and siable it

#

*disable

grave raptor
#

skulltrooper, you'll actually want to right click on the Nvidia icon in your taskbar icons, go to the control panel, from there go into manage 3D settings, program settings, add risk of rain 2 if it isn's in the list, then switch it to high performance graphics processor.

#

Someone said that you'd find the settings inside GeForce, but it isn't inside there.

frigid yew
#

hmm? i'm pretty sure i said nvidia control panel

grave raptor
#

You did, but then he asked if it was GeForce and someone else said yes.

frigid yew
#

fastest way to access nvidia control panel would be to right click on your desktop and click on Open Nvidia control panel

#

@royal wind

#

If you want I can PM you a step by step on how to optimize the game that best way I've found to do it

grave raptor
#

That works as well. Anyways, that's for making sure that it isn't defaulting to integrated graphics, which has been happening a lot. And if it's defaulting to integrated and you switch over, that should fix most of your problems.

frigid yew
#

Yeah what ShloKnight said, high preformance tends to solve most FPS issues in games

#

it was also a big problem with people who played Apex and got screen tearing/fps lag

quasi cloud
#

I actually have an issue with the game and my Nvidia control panel too. The game won't work properly if I'm using the GTX 970 I have and it only works when using the integrated graphics. When I use the 970 I just get the blank screen and audio problem.

frigid yew
#

Blank screen?

#

is it when you launch the game, you get a black screen and thats it?

quasi cloud
#

yea, like no game screen appears if I'm in fullscreen mode or a blackscreen if I'm in windowed mode

grave raptor
#

Yeah, but sadly frame skips and drops aren't the only problem.... like this guy. I love the black screen crashes... Mostly cause half the time the pinned fixes don't work out.

frigid yew
#

and you're using a GTX 970, right?

quasi cloud
#

yea

kind hull
#

did anyone else get a corrupt profile after the update

grave raptor
#

And you tried the stuff in the pins? The one that says something about "game crashes on startup"?

quasi cloud
#

Yea I've done all that

#

drivers are up to date, tried it with antirus off, restarted and reinstalled

frigid yew
#

Just to make sure, under program settings, you've selected RoR 2 and it won't work if you set it to High performace processor?

stone wraith
#

Try turning off the Steam Overlay and relaunch the game

quasi cloud
#

yea

stone wraith
#

Any overlays for that matter

quasi cloud
#

I tried that

kind hull
#

??

grave raptor
#

@kind hull Nope, my game launched just fine and my profile's seem to be the same.

frigid yew
#

@kind hull corrupt file as in you've lost all your save data or your games just broken?

kind hull
#

save data

stone wraith
#

Verify game integrity

frigid yew
#

^^

orchid flame
#

If you've lost all of your save data it won't come back by verifying integrity

stone wraith
#

It will if it's synced on the Steam Cloud.

frigid yew
#

if you really need to, you an fiddle with the game files to get yourself the unlocks and items you previously had

Well, I think he was wondering if it was something widespread, @kind hull follow the pins, if that doesn't work message here again.

kind hull
#

thanks

frigid yew
#

@stone wraith i'm gonna try running the game with onscreen keyboard to see if it's the w key getting stuck or not

#

wish me luck 😢

quasi cloud
#

Is there anything else I can try to fix my stuff?

stone wraith
#

When it's doing it, hit alt+enter to switch between full screen / windowed...sometimes that works

grave raptor
#

You can also try different settings with Nvidia control panel.

quasi cloud
#

The only problem is that I don't really know what settings to mess with

royal wind
#

k i opened the control panel @frigid yew

#

i slid the thing to "performance" quality

copper lance
#

i keep getting blackscreens in multiplayer between maps or just not spawning in if the next map does load. also sometimes trying to join a friends lobby itll just boot me back to the main menu. anyway to fix it?

frigid yew
#

@stone wraith yeah it turns out it's the w key getting stuck while i'm in game, even when I quit the game, the W key keeps pressing on it's own

kind hull
#

@grave raptor no luck in trying to get my save back

stone wraith
#

Rejoin the game?

#

@frigid yew Did you reinstall the game

grave raptor
#

Then sounds like your best option is to get the game running again(unless it's running again now) and go into the game files to unlock whatever all you had to grind to get.

royal wind
#

@frigid yew

#

gues what it was

#

the damn vjoy

#

i disabled it, and now my mouse works

frigid yew
#

Oh it was Vjoy?

royal wind
#

thanks for yor suggestings tho

copper lance
#

when i try to rejoin it just sits at a black screen and i have to force close it

royal wind
#

im gonna now max the settings lmfao

frigid yew
#

ahahah well, glad it's working

royal wind
#

and see what happens

kind hull
#

it runs now but when i opened the XML it was blank

#

@grave raptor

frigid yew
#

@stone wraith not yet, imma need to back it up first but ill do that

grave raptor
#

You need to make a new profile in the game.. You done that yet?

#

And if it's still blank, you might have to play a game first.

kind hull
#

yes

naive sluice
#

Is anyone else not able to disable bloom?

grave raptor
#

Other than that, idk, I haven't fiddled with the game files much yet. Tony.C will probably be able to help more. And I'm going to play a bit so I can see if the adjustments to the teleporter are overkill.

frigid yew
#

@naive sluice yeah Dunno why's constantly enabled

kind hull
#

ok well i think my save is gone at this point so

quasi cloud
#

are there any specific settings in the Nvidia control panel I should try messing with because I have no clue as to what to look for

stone wraith
#

It's in the pinned items

#

Vsync off

quasi cloud
#

Ive done that already

stone wraith
#

Main and power to performance, are the main two

frigid yew
#

To boost preformance? Most importantly Virtual sync off, Power management to high preformance, texture filtering quality to performance,

#

those are the main ones I'd suggest

quasi cloud
#

for me it's just the screen not coming up that's a problem

frigid yew
#

Oh, the blank screen?

#

I'd suggest backing your save files and reinstalling

quasi cloud
#

I can click the buttons with the mouse because I have audio so I can tell that works

stone wraith
#

Dumb question but have you rebooted since this has happened?

frigid yew
#

also yeah

quasi cloud
#

yes

frigid yew
#

Yeah, probably try reinstalling?

quasi cloud
#

I turn off my pc everytime I finish using it

frigid yew
#

If the screen isn't working, then it's probably a file that went haywire when updating

quasi cloud
#

I mean it's been like this since launch

stone wraith
#

Reinstall the game after backing up your saves (pinned), if that doesn't work, install latest GPU, HD Audio / Audio drivers.

#

There's mention reinstalling C++ redistributable 2015 might help too.

quasi cloud
#

how do I do that?

stone wraith
#

Look at the pinned items, they have a MS linked

quasi cloud
#

alright

stone wraith
#

Switching between full-scree, / windowed modes, drivers, and changing desktop resolution / game resolution to match native desktop res can sometimes help. Especially if you have niche monitors etc.

quasi cloud
#

do you mean changing the desktop resolution in the game or the default resolution of my computer

stone wraith
#

Try both, I'd start with matching your desktop native resolution

#

Full screen usually uses mostly GPU, Windowed mode CPU

#

Some games are finicky / not optimized for all the hardware out there. Comes with the territory with EA games.

brittle summit
#

anyway to uncorrupt a save?

stone wraith
#

Pinned XML edits

copper lance
#

did clean install still cant properly multiplayer

#

now its doing a complete black screen with no sounds when joining a lobby or when going from map to map as opposed to just a blank screen i can open my menu during

fallow bluff
#

Still having the 0:00 ready at the multiplayer lobby screen. Have tried joining through steam invite and copy lobby id.

#

Tried verifying game didn't work. Also have restarted PC multiple times.

orchid flame
#

game randomly crashes when I open a chest sometimes

radiant aurora
#

some multyplayer bugs are fixed by restarting steam

stone wraith
#

You can try running Steam / the game as admin, maybe something trying to load is getting blocked, and the game literally just updated, so might be related.

fallow bluff
#

^good idea I'll give it a shot. And I was having the issue before the update as well.

copper lance
#

ill try restarting steam. this was an issue before the update

#

have also restarted my pc and steam a few times but havnt payed attention if its stable for a bit after steam restarts

frail zinc
#

so i just got the game and when i try to play on keyboard it keeps saying i have a controller plugged in which i dont how do i get ride of the problem ?

copper lance
#

now it just kicks me bacl to the main menu when trying to join

#

progress i guess

fallow bluff
#

Yea admin didn't fix it either for me. Still stuck at 0:00 Ready.

quasi cloud
#

I've tried changing my resolution on both the game and the screen, that didn't work. Whenever I verify the game files after trying though it says all files are verified successfully. My audio drivers didn't need to be updated and my graphics drivers are up to date too. Honestly feels like there's either some small detail I'm missing or it's something the devs will have to handle in an update.

copper lance
#

and its already dead again

midnight tangle
#

Using Milky Crysalis, when i got to the snow level the wings did not function anymore. They would go on a 60 second cooldown but i couldn't fly. Common bug or did i miss something?

brittle summit
#

@stone wraith i did what the pinned message said and i lost all of my heroes and my name changed....

copper lance
#

same issue just black screen until i have to force quit

midnight tangle
#

Thats normal Waub

brittle summit
#

so i have to restart from scratch?

midnight tangle
#

You had a corrupted save file unfortunately. i lost all my data as well.

#

yeah

fallow bluff
#

you can go into your save file and modify your unlocks but that's up to you.

brittle summit
#

how would i do that?

midnight tangle
#

you sick filth..

fallow bluff
#

I'd just search it up on google. I'm not 100% on how it works.

stone wraith
#

As I said, I'd back up your save file, but as Mag pointed out, it might have be corrupted anyways. And you can edit the saves like Mav said. It's EA and to be expected.

frail zinc
#

how would i disable controller settings?

static dawn
#

having massive network lag issues after 4 days seamless playing - any clues?

frail zinc
#

my character is always looking at the ground and says im using a controller which im not

#

any solutions

jovial bluff
#

@static dawn switch steam servers and see if that helps

#

@frail zinc do you have any controller drivers at all?

frail zinc
#

i dont think so

static dawn
#

@jovial bluff we did that, 😃 we coop on a lot of games and surprised this has only just happened last two days - everything reset and restarted - seems to be a network lag tho

mossy dune
#

do you guys know if the 16 man lobbies still work after the update

static dawn
#

only on risk of rain 2

frail zinc
#

@jovial bluff how would i check

jovial bluff
#

@static dawn youve used someone else as a host, right?
@frail zinc open up your device manager

static dawn
#

@jovial bluff yes weve swapped back and forth as well to see if that helps and no dice

frail zinc
#

@jovial bluff i dont have anything but my head set keyboard and mouse

#

my character keeps looking down is that a new problem

jovial bluff
#

not afaik. try to unbind all the controller settings

jolly canopy
#

The game won't start for me when I run it

#

anyone know why?

#

tried running as admin reinstalling restarting my comp

quasi cloud
#

did you disable the fullscreen optimizations

jovial bluff
#

@jolly canopy any errors?

jolly canopy
#

nope it just crashes

#

and how do i do that @quasi cloud

#

I see a black screen and then it goes away

signal hearth
#

Can you start a lobby with both players being offline

#

We just want to duo without the rest of our friend group

quasi cloud
#

so in properties for risk of rain in the steam library browse local files > left click the risk of rain game icon>properties>compatability>look down and you'll see 'run program as administrator' and 'disable fullscreen optimizations'

high inlet
#

Is there a place where RoR2 store logs files?

jolly canopy
#

@quasi cloud I don't see compatability

#

am I in the right menu

quasi cloud
#

yea

#

but I don't know why it wouldn't be there

#

compatability should be right next to general

high inlet
#

RoR is crashing pretty consistently on the third or 4th stage

fleet aurora
#

has anyone else experienced cheaters in-game? I just played with a huntress who basically auto-killed everything and moved lightning fast. Is this the place to report that? I think the devs should be aware

frigid yew
#

i didn't even realize you could cheat in this game

#

what the hell

fleet aurora
#

neither did I!

lament horizon
#

you can cheat in every game

quasi cloud
#

holy fuck

#

I got it to work

frail zinc
#

my character only face down and all the abilities say unknown under them

#

any sloutions

#

solutions8

jolly canopy
#

sucks bc I was supposed to play with some friends and I can't play lmao

#

literally just appeared out of no where wtf?

frigid yew
#

@frail zinc make sure you dont have any controllers on, uninstall Vjoy under device manager

#

The game's recognizing it as you playing with a controller instead of mouse and keyboard, which is why the abilites show the bindings for controller instead of keyboard and mouse

jolly canopy
#

@quasi cloud doesn't work but thanks for trying

frigid yew
#

@jolly canopy i mean, have you tried the recommended solutions in the pinned messages?

frail zinc
#

@frigid yew i did all of that

quasi cloud
#

So I got it to work with my GTX 970

#

turns out all I had to do was fiddle with the DPI settings in properties

frigid yew
#

Oh nice

#

yeah the game's still in alpha so a lot of aspects of it isn't optimized very well

quasi cloud
#

game runs like a hundred times better now

jolly canopy
#

I got it to work now

#

Now I have another issue lol

#

my dual monitor has the mouse going on both screens

#

anyone have that issue

sudden quarry
#

@high inlet any clue what's causing it?

#

I get dc'd from my game 1 out of every three runs or so

#

just blank screen suddenly then back to title screen

high inlet
#

I'm mostly trying to discern if this is the game or because I OC my cpu

#

Doesn't seem to be a consistent thing, but it is always after something triggers (opening a chest, activating the teleporter)

#

It's happened twice now. Which was why I was wondering if the game stored log info to see if I could dig in and figure out if it was hardware based

clear lantern
#

hi guys i have a 1800x 3.9gh all cores,1080ti amd 3200mhz ram and game starts nice and smooth then after like 5 stages my fps drop from 150+ to 20 - 30 fps, my cpu and gpu usage is really really low aswell

cunning hawk
#

Lucky. I can't even get mine to startup without crashing.

light goblet
#

Same, Panda.

#

Worked fine when I bought it yesterday morning, now it crashes my whole rig seconds into the main menu.

clear lantern
#

seemslike thegame just doesnt push the hardware i mean hearthstone grabs more resources

cunning hawk
#

That sucks, Caspian. It's like the game is teasing you.

light goblet
#

Ikr 😦

echo garnet
#

My game was working fine a few days ago before the patch, but now I get about 0.5 FPS and 5 seconds delay between input and seeing it. Lowering all the graphics settings didn't help.

cunning hawk
#

I never got mine to even startup. 7700K, 32GB 2666Mhz, 2080ti

Yeah it was weird, it's like it was functional enough then got an invisible patch with 9000 performance issues

Today's patch didn't change anything for me either

ruby tangle
#

Hey guys, I am trying to play with my friends online but whenever I try to join their lobby (or they try to join mine) I get this weird bug where I just see the ready timer at* 0:00, no players, and I can't choose my character. It's so weird because it was working just fine a few days ago and now it's not

#

any clues?

wintry hearth
#

hello, i just want to report that whenever I pick up item there seems to be about 0.5-1 sec lag any clues? XD

muted sun
#

Hey so my friend is having trouble with his mouse. it always moves down in the game, not in the menus although the sensitivity is jacked up, it only moves down in the game

high inlet
#

Think I fixed the crashing problem, but now I'm getting random red and blue lense flares

muted sun
#

any ideas?

orchid flame
#

any idea why the game sometime crashes after opening a chest/picking up an item?

#

@wintry hearth I was having that issue. Moving my Steam installation from an HDD to SSD fixed it (not the game installation, the installation of steam itself).

lusty basin
#

server crash?

#

i play qp and always servers down today

mortal dawn
#

Anyone have any idea why I cant join a friends lobby or host my own lobby? Whenever we attempt to join, nothing happens. No kick back to menu screen, no weird timers, nothing. It's like we didn't even hit join. This happens regardless of if we join through ID or through steam invites.

my friend cant launch the game?

Alright

so RoR2 ran fine earlier, but after the patch there's been some uh... Let's say insane GPU usage.

grand canyon
#

Games unplayable for me after the update. i7 4790k and a GTX 1080 im getting 6 fps now. Changing video settings does nothing

novel ermine
#

That’s odd, they use ECS and memory pointers to lower cpu use age and spread it to over multiple processors. I wonder how the compilers messed up

wary tree

how do i fix the sound it keeps cutting out

noble steppe
#

Ever since the update the whole game is like playing a slideshow. I messed with the settings and it isnt helping. It was working perfectly before the update

My GPU usage when I have the game open is around 4% and running at 6 fps. When I tab out it jumps to around 85% and is running at 160 fps

Are there any ports needed open for this? I'm getting DC's every single map every game.

@flint cypress could you tell me your specs? As far as im aware we've made no performance changes, but something may have gone awry. Could you also post your output_log.txt from just booting up and closing the game?

I can soon as I get out of this game.

@cunning hawk look at the fixed messanges, sometimes the resolution for ur problem is there.

Do you have extra network interfaces installed, such as hamachi? Those can mess with networking for multiplayer

I'm unable to reconnect to a multiplayer game after being disconnected - just hits black screen and then boots me back to menu.

unkempt bramble

Still having connection issues with multiplayer. Quickplay makes me join the pre-game lobby, but cannot see my own character nor ready up. I'm able to join private session with brother, and he can invite others to the game. I personally cannot do this, as people experience the same issue I do when joining others. However, if I Hamachi (which I installed after having these issues) someone on a different network, I can play with them.

Edit: RoR2 has full firewall access, I've tried verifying cache/restarting, also reinstalling/restarting. Leading me to believe it's something wrong with my computer's networking, but where would I even start?

Is there somewhere I can mess with lower level mouse settings? I'm having an issue where any time i press and hold a mouse button (including middle) it locks my cursor and i cant move the camera until i let go.

if you disable them you should be fine

disable what?

If that's not the case, there's something else going on

proper quest
#

they were always turned off, :p

zinc jacinth
#

how do you turn them on?

proper quest
#

i usually close them using the task manager

lament horizon
#

Yes, but are the actual network interfaces disabled in network manager?

proper quest
#

np, disabled them now, let me see if this works

lament horizon
#

Because it (hamachi) likes to mess with network routing, and unless you're comfortable editing the routing table in windows, the easiest solution is to disable the interface

Try seeing it your game log has any related information in it, there's a pinned message in #ror2-bug-reports-pc that tells you where to find it
