#

Totally pointless to attempt multi-play over satellite connection, you think? :p (I'd imagine the latency would be what the kids call 'the suck'?)

#

but I also have not played a game online since Quake 3 so, not sure

#

I have a 2,000 PC with very good internet :\

I don't think thats the issue dude

if anyone knows a fix pls inform me

#

I heard there was a program to simplify modding RoR2. What is that?

#

Cause I just want to get shared items working for my sessions

its easy to get share items to work

Not sure if this inquiry belongs here. But here goes anyway. I have all of my graphics settings set to Ultra. Performance is perfect. 120+ fps and heat generated from my machine is just fine and the GPU load is on average low 40s, high 30s. I have a RTX 2070. For whatever reason?? When im in the multiplayer menu and Im watching my control center? all of a sudden my GPU load skyrockets to 95%+ and sits at that load until i exit that menu, or proceed to start the game. Why does this happen?? Why does the multiplayer menu of all things make my GPU take a massive dump on itself?

#

i will shortly put this post into feedback, but i was suggested to take this up with tech support first.

#

Though because this is such a minor problem, and only noticeable if i linger on the multiplayer menu and does not affect the game itself, I'm still concerned and wondering if there's something wrong with the multiplayer menu.

#

should i include this into bug reports?

#

or change it I guess.

my girlfriend has a strange problem; whenever we start a run, the moment she exits the escape pod, she automatically places a shield (Engineer). She does not press shift in the process at all. This does not happen when pressing E to interact with other objects. all control bindings are unchanged from default. why would this be happening?

My friend is unable to join my private lobby, and when I accept my friend's invite, they are unable to start a private lobby. Is there any way to solve this issue?

Hey guys, my friend bought Ror2 today, and every time he tries to launch it, a window will pop up for a split second, then it just closes/crashes. We've uninstalled/reinstalled, verified game cache, restarted PC, updated graphics card, and turned off firewall, but still no solution. Does anybody know a solution? Please DM me if you have any pointers. Thanks!

merry sandal
#

i was wondering if there was anyway to fix this but me and my friend cant play together, everytime he joins my game he cant select or lock in and everytime i join his same story. and even when it does somehow work he cant play and everything he sees is very delayed.

hollow acorn
#

@merry sandal im not a mod or anything but this sounds like a connectivity issue, do you guys live far away? Or have bad internet in general?

raw spade
#

@merry sandal That's a network issue, not a game issue. Check your network speed and have your friend check his using something like beta.speedtest.net

So I got the game today and I was able to download it just fine from steam, but when I went to play it, it gives me a black screen for a couple of seconds and then it goes back to my desktop. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it in other places, verifying the cache, restarting my computer, and updating my graphics card but it still won't launch. Does anyone know how to fix this?

smoky osprey
#

@orchid flame who should we contact about tech support? I've posted my issue twice and pinged a dev but I've gotten no response

hey guys do you know if non modded ror2 can join modded ror2 ?

I have the same issue as @merry sandal with my screen looking exactly like the one @smoky osprey posted

@south jacinth can you repair RoR2 and close steam and then reopen it and look if that workΒ΄s

That didn't work, I'm reinstalling now to see if that fixes it

Has anyone been experiencing the game crashing and leading to a full computer crash and/or bluescreen when attempting to play? Started happening for me after swapping up to a pc with 9900k+RTX2080. I usually can't get past the first stage before the crash occurs, sometimes the sound will continue playing while the screen is black until I restart the computer. (Alt+Tab, CTRL-ALT-DEL are not functioning in this state)

It started working for me after everyone in my group restarted Steam

Getting an intermittent but persistent crash mid gameplay -error box with bar pops up, then the program shuts itself. Any ideas?

grizzled rain
#

My game uses only 1GB of ram even if it needs more resulting in very low fps on later stages. I have 8GB ram which is more than enough. If anyone knows how to let the game use more ram, please tell me.

golden vessel
#

is it weird for a pc with 16gb of RAM + 1060 6GB GrapCard to chug / minor freezing everytime i pick up an item?

#

tried to reinstall the game and setup the nvidia graphics thing to maximize performance from there and still does it

west kettle
#

@grizzled rain how do you check the RAM usage of the game? I think i'm getting the same issue as you, although up until now i had figured it was the CPU acting up

grizzled rain
#

@west kettle you can check it through task manager but I found out the ram isn't the problem, I don't know what's causing it

west kettle
#

Try checking your GPU, my setup isn't great, but my issue is that the game constantly switches between running smooth at 60 fps, and stuttering at 10 fps. I figured it wasn't the GPU because of that, so i checked both the temperature and the speed of the GPU, and both goes especially bad on the 4th stage (Hell)

#

Has anyone else had a problem with survivors and monsters not showing up in the logbook?

lusty cargo
#

I'm not sure what the deal is, but I haven't experienced any performance issues until now. The UI is super slow and so is the game. Hopefully it self-resolves, but for now, it's really quite bad. At one point, I couldn't even get past the Early Access Disclaimer screen.

Hey, I've got a problem, which doesn't really influence my game experience pretty much, but it's still a bug. So, my Logbook doesn't work as it's supposed to do. I'm almost 30h into the game and the only monster I have in my Logbook is a lesser wisp

Thats not a bug

You have a chance to get a drop that gives you this Logbook entry you dont get it instantly πŸ˜„

Hey, was wondering if there's a solution to having more chest spawn because right now when playing multiplayer i seem to be getting 0 chests?

I dont think so especially if you are joining a random game

@spark granite Fix it by pressing alt + enter when you start RoR2 it switch between windowed mode and full screen this can help

does anyone else feel like infusion only stacks to 100 and multiple stacks do not increase health further?

proven prawn
#

I had crashes ever since the last update. They happen at complete random, but sometimes i can trigger it by tabbing out and in again. The screen freezes but everything else still goes on doing things and then after like 5 seconds it crashes to desktop. Also happens in the menus. But in the menus it doesnt crash to desktop only the picture freezes.

elder siren
#

@half palm I had it in my run and more stacks of infusion got me more healthj

i found a 3d printer with infusion and I already had a stack that was at 100 hp. printed about 4 more and never got anymore health

Hey guys, me and a friend currently are having trouble joining lobbys. When one of us accepts an invite nothing happens. Via clipboard it's possible to join, but only one person can see the lobby. If the lobby leader then starts, only he gets in the character select but the other one gets a black screen and then gets back to the main menu.

orchid flame
#

dam so many ppl have that issue

elder siren
#

Are you starting a Private lobby first and then inviting them or do you invite them first and then start the private lobby?

astral glacier
#

We tried both and both didn't work

elder siren
#

Have you restarted the game and different hosts?

astral glacier
#

Yes we restarted the game and steam multiple times

elder siren
#

I dont know sorry

#

How can you get custom maps running?

Hey is anyone having a problem with their pc/laptop overheating playing the game? I've turned down the res and gfx settings but my laptop still goes over 80c in the menu

Nah, when I try to start it up the screen goes black and then the application closes after a while and I am back where I started - looking at my Steam library.

#

my friend has some problems anyone knows what it is?

steel hatch

Mouse problem didnt even fix when i uninstalled and then reinstalled the whole game

woeful cosmos
#

Since the last patch my game has been running awfully, albeit my pc isnt the best but before the patch i was running fine at 60 on low but now i'm at a consistent 30 or below fps, anyone know any improvements I can make other than hurr durr get a better pc?

arctic dragon
#

@west kettle Have you tried turning the settings down?

steel hatch
#

nvm my idiot ass forgot to unplug the controller. i am ashamed

west kettle
#

Everything is on the absolute lowest setting. Which is also why i suspected the issue being related to CPU and not GPU

#

That actually brings me to a bug with the settings. if i turn LOD bias down, it quickly resets itself to ultra. this doesn't impact performance really, but it sure is annoying. Same thing goes for the "show damage numbers" in the gameplay section. (albeit way less)

sterile rover
#

heyo, anyone else getting an issue where you can't join your friends lobby?

shrewd arrow
#

i dunno why i cant join cliboard lobbys

elder siren

I think you need to have copied the "clipboard id" or whatever you want to call it first

shrewd arrow

also it says my lobby is friends only

#

maybe thats the problem?

still prairie
#

I still have the game running incredibly poorly due to what I can only guess is bad optimization, the game uses less and less of my GPU as it goes longer, I start with fine FPS and it just slowly drops for each minute spent in the game as
My memory is fine
My CPU is fine
My GPU is fine
Not a single part of my rig is stressed or really being utilized by the game at all, it also doesn't matter what my resolution is or what my settings are
lowest of the lowest settings? same issue
highest settings? same issue
literally no difference
also yes I've following the tips in the pins, still no fix

#

The game just over time drops how much of my GPU it is using and it makes no sense

I posted this in #ror2-feedback-and-ideas but I wanted to ask in here as well. Is there a link floating around somewhere to donate to the developers of Risk of Rain 2? I want to donate to them to help this game grow even more. It's the best game I've played this year and I love it just as much as Borderlands 2, personally one of my favorite games.

I'm currently on Ubuntu 18.04 and I run RoR2 using Steam Proton. The first week I've played this game, I've been able to run this game perfectly fine. A few days ago, however, I've been encountering this error (DX11 could not switch resolution): https://imgur.com/wT2Ec69

All the fixes I've seen for this error are exclusive to Windows (i.e. disable full-screen optimization). I haven't encountered this error in ProtonDB either. What else can I do to fix this?

@timber igloo what is your driver version

#

You need latest Nvidia drivers for assets to load properly (assuming you're using Nvidia)

ah

#

I know im using a 2 month old version let me check which one it is

When my buddy launches the game in full screen, his Display Driver Crashes and his screen goes black till he reboots, tried an older driver and it still does it, only fix we have found so far is going into geforce experience and setting the game to run in window mode, which fixes the issue but it's not how he wants to play 😦

My graphic setting aren't saving. Everytime I launch the game, it start in 3840x2160 and I have to manually change it to 2560x1440. If I close the game and reopen it, it launch in 3840x2160 again. Anyone know what's wrong with it?

south orchid
#

@orchid flame thats dumb, i played a full game of solo game just fine

#

why cant it switch host when my dumbass host die and left

I'm sure a fix is in the works if that's what I am suspecting it is. This is still early access afterall.

i keep having an issue where my game, on startup, will turn both of my monitors off. The game is still running, because I can here it, but everything else seems to turn off.

Hey i recently bought the game but refunded the game due to a radeon driver bug(?) where i would have to change mode from graphics to calculation, essentially requiring a reboot to play the game. If i didnt do this the game would periodically crash. Anyone know if this is still an issue? Really want to buy and play the game again but dont want to reboot pc to play. Any working fixes or workarounds maybe?

Question: I use Right Mouse for moving forward, but the game won't let me configure that. Who can I bring this up to in hopes that it gets addressed in a future patch? Or rather, the game won't let me use Right Mouse for forward and S for backwards at the same time.

hey i always have the problem that my character just runs backwards makes the game unplayable for me
i think its an input from somewhere(because instead of the actual buttons under the skills it says "unknown") but i cant seem to find it i have nothing else than my mouse/keyboard connected

pine sequoia
#

so @sinful wadi i had a similar issue where i just couldnt press anything and would just look up, im almost positive what it means is that the game "recognizes" that a controller is connected and defaults to its controls. The way i fixed it is that i unassigned all of the controller options and turned aim sensitivity to .1 for controller as well and it seems to work as a good band-aid solution until i can find out how to completely disable controller.

orchid flame
#

@pine sequoia we test that atm but he still have the issue

well then just typing out loud here, but have u tried disabling the keyboard controls as well just to see if thats what is causing it? or maybe connecting a controller and seeing if u can move?

On loading the game, I load into the early access splash where my screen will rapidly go black, the monitor losing signal, and my PC's fans go to full RPM
I still have audio and can continue talking to my friends on discord, a few windows error noises will play, but I'm unable to anything else.
I am also able to alt+F4 out of the game before the crash happens.

Current status:
Nothing has worked, or remotely affected the issue so far I have tried:
Updating Drivers
Disabling Steam overlay
Turning off Wallpaper engine
Turning off firewall (With restart)
Un-installing and re-installing the game
Downclocking my GPU (It has no base overclock)
Verifying integrity of game cache (No issues)

Things I'd like to try, but haven't found out how:
Launching into a stable/smaller windowed mode
Launching with V-sync

Specs:
CPU: AMD ThreadRipper 2950x, 16 Core, 32 Thread 3.5Ghz (4.4Ghz Turbo)
RAM: 32GB (4*8GB) 3000Mhz G-Skill Trident Ram
GPU: Asus GTX 1060 6GB
Storage: 2TB Samsung SSD

Sorry to bother you but i have a serious question, I am currently changing computers and I was wondering will my profile be deleted if I swap PC's or do I have to download it onto a USB and transfer it over. Once again sorry to bother you. -Sincerely Skills

Encountering a strange issue that only started since the latest patch - while playing at random intervals ( can be on stage 1, or stage 11) my FPS will suddenly drop to half of what's normal. Closing ROR2 down and starting it up maintains the same issue (the menu is much choppier). If I restart the computer FPS returns to normal though... is this a known or reported issue? Are there any workarounds I can do so it doesn't keep killing me run?

spare quest
#

Whenever I start the game it goes to a black screen and then crashes is this happening to anyone else?

opal crescent
#

@spare quest did you try to restart steam or your pc

#

@gusty cargo do you have an fps limit on?

gusty stratus
#

multiplier hasnt worked at all for me

#

this keeps happening and when it doesnt i cant join quickplay queue and my friends cant join me

opal crescent
#

try having him make a lobby and quiting out of ror2 and join him through friends list

gusty stratus
#

ok

sterile zephyr
#

hi, I have a bug, when i open the game it says "Early_acces_disclaimer" and nothing works, all titles have underscores like "title_mutiplayer" and buttons dont do anything

gusty cargo
#

@opal crescent Nope, no limit on it. It just happens at random intervals

sterile zephyr
#

same problem Lasagna got

opal crescent
#

what are your graphics settings @gusty cargo

gusty cargo
#

Mainly high, although I already tried the last time the drop happened to drop everything to low settings and it didn't have an effect on it

#

My settings also haven't changed since I started playing (on launch) and the problems only started ~1.5 weeks ago

bright copper
#

@sterile zephyr have you tried verifying the install through Steam?

sterile zephyr
#

yes, tried that, uninstaling and re instaling multiple times too

bright copper
#

Did you notice this suddenly occur while you already had the game open?

shy schooner
#

Hey, the same problem started happening today for me and a mate too

#

we played yesterday without a problem and wanted to play another round now but the info board on the top right just vanishes after trying to join

bright copper
#

@sterile zephyr @shy schooner there's a pinned message about this issue, I just noticed.

shy schooner
#

already saw that pinned msg,but the strings are fine for me :/

bright copper
#

also in #ror2-bug-reports-pc there's this, might help them narrow it down further

Output Logs
While the game is running, it is continually writing to a file called output_log.txt. This file will help us get more information from the bug. If possible, please upload the file to Discord with your submission. 'The file is located at:
C:\Users<UserrName>\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\output_log.txt

opal crescent
#

@gusty cargo does this happen with other games? , and check your cpu and disk percentage and if it keeps happening after you restart your pc then its either a game issues or something to do with your drivers maybe but you should ask around.

bright copper
#

@shy schooner what do you mean the strings are 'fine'?

gusty cargo
#

@opal crescent Not happening with other games, nope... I was actually trying to track my CPU/ memory usage and didn't notice anything out of the oridnary. I will try updating my drivers though in case maybe that is the issue, but odd that it happens all of a sudden with the last patch. Thanks for your help

sterile zephyr
#

youdrongo, there like 6 xml files in "userprofie"

#

do i delete them

bright copper
#

let me see what mine look like real quick, there might be a specific one

#

huh i only have one. id say delete all but one first and see what shows in the game, then try the pinned message by pasting a fresh save file into that leftover XML

sterile zephyr
#

allright, seems like the other xml were the profiles i created beore, delted them all and created a new one

bright copper
#

sounds good, report back with results!

sterile zephyr
#

didn't work :c

#

by any chance does not having windows service pack 1 update installed cause any trouble?

bright copper
#

I'm not sure, I'm no developer :(

#

but keeping everything up to date is always a good step to take

sterile zephyr
#

ok, thanks for the help

bright copper
#

no problem, sorry i couldnt help you resolve it

You can upload your save file to your USB then move it to the correct location when you reinstall

#

@sterile cipher

sterile cipher
#

where is the file located i cant find it

#

@unborn zodiac

unborn zodiac
#

one sec I'll find the filepath

#

Local disc > Program Files(x86) > Steam > Userdata > (It will be a bunch of numbers but that is your steam ID) > 632360 > remote > UserProfiles > (if you only have one profile made in ROR it will be here but not by the name you chose)

#

@sterile cipher

sterile cipher
#

should the name be a bunch of letters and numbers

#

its an XML Doc.

unborn zodiac
#

it should be yes

#

you should be able to open it and it tries to open in a windows like tab if you don't have an xml editor, will show your profile info

sterile cipher
#

i just see a bunch of stats so i think i did it right thank you

Where can I fill a proper bug report (like on github) and get a notification it is looked at, or keep in touch to provide more feedback? The sole information that somone have read and is investigating would be sufficient for me. : )

@dusk rock i dont have much experience with problems like these... if u checked ur game chache on steam, then try a full reinstall

I bought the game yesterday and played for a while, unlocking Mul-t, huntress and the mercenary but when i opened the game again today I think it deleted my profile or something because it prompted me to create a new one and everything that I unlocked is gone.

Hello, I'm running well above the system requirements with a RTX 2080, AMD Ryzen 7 2700X and a g-sync monitor, yet further on into the game the FPS starts dropping off to about 30. Help?

eyy, just want a confirmation on fps drops once you start progressing past 1 stage. is it AMD specific issues, or across the board? everyone else in my session runs intel processors and seem to be doing okay

gusty cargo
#

@fallow goblet I'm experiencing something similar... does the FPS persist after the run? For me it happens randomly and the only way to fix is to restart my CPU

fallow goblet
#

it happens alwasy past stage 1, i go from holding around 140ish to like 30-40 fps. lowered literally everything and now it doesnt go lower than like 45, but still

#

restarting pc usually does nothing

gusty cargo
#

Even the menus are laggy for me in my scenario

fallow goblet

i assume theyre aware of it already, just figured id see if it was just those of us who are running amd chips

For some reason i am not able to play multiplayer. I cant join on friends, and if they join on me they get sendt to a black screen. Multiplayer have worked fine forever but for some reason it wont work now. I have tried reinstalling, verifying files, allowing it through firewall, disabled firewall completely, disabled antivirus, and it still wont work.

Probly worth to mention, when i click "enter quickplay" it jsut says "not in quickplay que", and the party icons in the top right doesent show up at all either

I have this issue where in combat many sounds kinda pulse, like every second the audio fades in and out. dont notice it in the menus but it gets very disorientating in combat because it feels like what running a fk ton feels like you know, every heartbeat makes you deaf for a second.

Just wondering if any devs or anyone else might know how to get the game to go into 'exclusive' full screen mode? I'm still having some input delay. I've already disabled Windows full screen optimizations in the .exe properties, disabled game mode, game bar, etc. I've also tried deleting registry subfolders that Windows uses to force non-exclusive FS, but it still won't go into exclusive. Any ideas?

Not sure if intended or not but using the Helfire Tincture WITH the Transcendence (Convert Life to Shield) puts the Helfire Tincture damage to 1 ( was 150 ish before buying the item in the shop). My guess is its a bug since it doesn't say anything in the Item's tooltip. I thought the damage scaled with your level, which makes it very good for starting items.

#

anyone has that happened to them?

opal crescent
#

@stray moon bug reports :0

Thanks for checking, I dont think it makes much sense and so im pretty sure its a bug, right?

sounds like it yeah

any one have advice on what to do or where to go to get this resolved?

@opal crescent already done tons of digging to no avail. only solution was downloading a third party cursor lock, just kind of silly to have to use it when then had worked fine with no issues for the past 100+ hrs ive played lol

yeah its been happening more often where peoples games are fine then it starts acting up for seemingly no reason

@opal crescent 99% its a unity issue, only time i've ever had the problem was with games using unity shrug just never have found a solution

Bug: I had 1xCorpsebloom with 1xRejuvenation Rack with the Gnarled Woodsprite On use. I picked up 1xShaped Glass, my healing over time went down to 15 per tick (from the on use Passive), I then got a 2nd Corpsebloom and my healing over time went down to 7, instead of going up as the tooltip from the Corpsebloom says it "Doubles" your healing.

Are they random lag spikes or does it happen when you do something in game?

lime bobcat
#

my friend said he isnt lagging but my attack arnt going out and it takes 30 sec to 2 mins to open chest aswell as during boss fights the boss;s stay still for 30 secs then i insta die when the game catchs up

#

after stage 2-3 it starts happening

#

this is making it un playable

feral compass
#

is this in multiplayer?

lime bobcat
#

yeah,

timber igloo
#

Could be a network issue

feral compass
#

that might be your issue

#

does it do it in singleplayer aswell?

lime bobcat
#

my wifi is top doller though and it shouldnt be that bad because of wifi. :/

and dont know just got the game today only played 4-5 games co-op with a friend

#

but it has happend every game

timber igloo
#

Do you normally host?

lime bobcat
#

no he is hosting

feral compass
#

jump in singleplayer and check if you can

timber igloo
#

Could be him

feral compass
#

could be him yeah

timber igloo
#

I would see if you can recreate the issues in single player and if you can't then I would just host the matches from now on

feral compass
#

if you host and your friend starts lagging, then you know its his connection

i used to use this program called vJoy which basically allows you to use a gamecube controller, but for some reason i can't uninstall it and it's always emulating a virtual gamepad now

#

usually it's not a problem, but for this game it is. it likes to think there's a controller plugged in even though i'm using keyboard/mouse

#

makes the game unplayable because my mouse cursor is stuck as a gamepad controller

Having a bug where occasionally video input fails. Audio is still present, and others still see me in game, but my monitor claims there is no input.

Most frequent occurrence are if I move my mouse rapidly on the settings menus (discovered while trying to change settings) and after a period of time in the Lunar Portals.

I've toggled Mouse Acceleration, Restarted PC, Verified game files, Uninstalled and reinstalled game.

Problem began occurring around the 16th or 17th.

Having invite and multiplayer issues. Checked out the faqs and did a bunch of google searching. Figured here might be my last stop for some help.

-Tried a few fixes like port forwarding, even though it says it's not needed. (Did this after other fixes, one of the last things I did)
-Did the ip passthrough on my router (lotta ATT users talked about that so I did it)
-Restarted game and router
-Tried inviting a friend while he didn't have the game started (Which worked for me and another friend once before, no dice this time.)

Is there anything I'm missing? Or is it just a known issue right now.

I'm trying to play with a plugged in XBONE controller, but I'm not able to get the right analog stick to work correctly

Hey! I'm having trouble with my view in game, I keep looking down. Like, the game actively draws me to look at the ground and I'm unable to look anywhere else. It reads my input, but the game resists it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, verifying game files, unplugging the mouse, using controller, everything. I just installed the game. My mouse works with any other game, and doesn't direct itself downward. Anybody have any solutions?

Hi I'm having an issue with a single PC, I don't own it but I have reasonable access to use it for gaming( the computer is my partner's Partner's computer) I am having a problem with the mouse buttons the game treats that computer like they're always being pushed down and so it auto-fires those abilities non-stop, I've looked into every setting i can in trying to resolve this but i cannot figure it out, they do have a pair of Flight simulator controllers hooked up to it which caused a strafing issue i was able to sort out but after pressing and trying every button on both of the controls i cannot for the life of me figure out what it the cause of the issue
Some advice or help in this department would be helpfull

After some testing I only get fps issues in multiplayer, the gpu utilization drops to 30% and I'm getting between 40 and 70 fps. In singleplayer I get between 70 and 120 fps, with between 40%-80% gpu utilization. Wish I could just cap the framerate and have consistent frampacing, but I've gotten some terrible framerates trying to do this (with equally low gpu util).

When you try to join a lobby nothing happens right ?

velvet frost

I just black screen and then back to the main lobby

tawdry forge

That's one result, yeah. It's either that. Or if you try accepting an invite from out of game, the invite just brings you to the main menu or to the multiplayer screen, but not into a party with them

jolly ruin
#

I haven't been able to Join any kind of multiplayer lobby at all.
Making my own private lobby or getting invited to a friend's Multiplayer menu / lobby don't work, I just either sit on the main menu or occasionally it loads me into the multiplayer menu with most of the buttons grey'd out.

Quick play also doesn't seem to do anything. It says 'Not in quickplay Lobby' for a while before the Multiplayer menu flashes and it greys everything but the top option out. Which changes to Join button, but clicking on that just puts a spinning wheel next to it and doesn't seem to do anything else.

Even tried copying a friend's little clip-code and using that and I just got the same multiplayer-Menu screen with grey options

I've tried verifying, and uninstall/reinstalling. I even used Netstat and gathered all the port addresses the game and steam services run through and made exceptions/forwards for them all. .

But really the behavior hasn't changed.

There seems to be quite a lot of bottlenecking in the game, temps will go high but utilization remains low much of the time, and certain rendering options break it (my machine drops frames like mad with shadows on at all, blood textures seems plausible considering)

#

Having problems joining clipboard lobbies, anyone got some advice?

glad birch
#

Has anybody had a problem where the game starts with nothing but black screen, and simply crashes with no error after 2-3 seconds of menu song?

glad birch
#

I am asking, because none of the fixes I've seen have fixed it. Graph drivers are updated (Nvidia Geforce GT650M, is what I have, driv. version is 425.31), resolution changing, disabling borderless window with window-exclusive, fiddling with various resolution related settings in the config, trying to go windowed via alt+enter etc. None has helped.

#

Actually sometimes, the launch screen (With the early access disclaimer) comes up, and then the game minimizes before crashing sometime down the line

plain pilot
#

@glad birch You need to provide info.
Motherboard, CPU, GPU, Driver Versions

#

@glad birch most common is motherboard sound driver conflicts with gpu sound driver

#

if you're using your hdmi output for sound, uninstall the motherboard sound driver, or disable it in device manager (only a test, and this is a guess at a likely failure)

glad birch
#

@plain pilot Of course, I'm on a Samsung NP550P5C laptop with a Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS. It has Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Integrated, *Which runs the game without problems, but low performance) and NVidia Geforce 650M gpu (On driver version 425.31, updated today) (Which is the one causing problems.) The provessor is an Intel Core i7-3610QM @2.30 GHz, with 8.00GB RAM and a 500gb Samsung EVO SSD

plain pilot
#

also as for frames, some monitors are incorrectly configured. For example my 4K screen sets up as 59 hertz, and that refresh rate just doesn't play well with anything. 60hz fixes it every time I reinstall (every month or so)

#

@glad birch so you're probably relying on the motherboard's sound chip, probably disable/uninstall the nvidia sound driver as a test.
also, don't bother with trying to set nvidia graphics settings for games, let the game manage its own graphics settings.

#

also, see if you can play in full screen versus windowed

#

AND, what's your region?

#

does your internet connection have packet loss? (test it) regular old ping and speed tests should work.

#

the laptop hardware/software you described sounds relatively common and general, should probably work fine, but I'd be concerned with Windows 7 compatibility going down over time.

glad birch
#

Full AND windowed works on integrated, no problems. Switching the graph. processor to the nvidia one makes it so the game simply doesn't display anything at all, but a black screen/white screen. I do have a pretty horrible connection, from Turkey and it tends to have issues with packet loss occasionally. My problems aren't with joining a lobby or playing though, as they are fine enough (With the expected latency issues) when I'm using the integrated solution. I do not have any NVidia sound cards installed, I think the sound driver on my computer is realtek. Will try disabling it and launching the game, although I do not really see that helping.

plain pilot
#

@glad birch NVIDIA gpus often have sound card built in to support HDMI audio. Just make sure that's not installed/enabled.. Then I want you to reset nvidia configuration. Try not using nvidia "experience" just the display driver.
You're probably using/relying on the realtek audio for your laptop's sound generally. Might want to leave that.

glad birch
#

I've uninstalled the "Nvidia Experience" when I updated my graphs driver earlier today. Yes, I've been using realtek ever since I had this laptop. I'll go ahead and check device manager/services etc to make sure what's aforementioned isn't installed. All my Nvidia profiles and settings have been set back to default now

sterile thicket
#

Whenever i pick up a new item wich i didnt have before the game freezes for a second or two, anyone else have this problem?

glad birch
#

Looks like device manager shows nothing but "Intel(R) Display Audio" and "Realtek High Definition Audio". Nothing to do with Nvidia anywhere(Sound-wise), including programs, services and devices.

plain pilot
#

@glad birch sure, it'd probably be under audio devices. You might also see a checkbox option when you install/reinstall nvidia drivers.
Make sure it's up to date of course, from teh Nvidia website itself (don't trust windows to update graphics drivers for you) -rolls eyes at microsoft-

#

@sterile thicket You playing the game on a hard drive?

glad birch
#

I've updated it through Nvidia's website this morning, it's THE latest version. I was not asked anything about sound drivers when installing it. (A clean installation, mind you.) . And yes, audio devices is where I've checked. Nada

plain pilot
#

should be fine then.

#

@glad birch Okay, try these.
Right click ROR2 in steam and hit "verify game cache/files"
Then when you run ROR2, disable vsync
Then we should check if there's any log outputs from ROR2 that might describe why the black screen happened.

glad birch
#

Verifying cache right now. Vsync is already disabled through config. Where should I look for logs?

plain pilot
#

@glad birch %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2

glad birch
plain pilot
#

@glad birch Did you try starting a game? That looks like you only opened the title screen

glad birch
#

Yes, that's what I've done. Because all I get when game launches is the black screen, prior to a crash.

plain pilot
#

@glad birch I'd like to see the log after you get a black screen

glad birch
#

That log's what I got after starting the game, getting the black screen and then crashing.

#

I'll do it again

plain pilot
#

There might be a way to get more debug output from the game, I dunno

glad birch
#

If I switch the game to Integrated graphics through Nvidia's driver settings, the game works and I can play it without issues. But as you could guess, there are no errors to study when that happens. (Alongside the low performance to be naturally expected from integrated)

plain pilot
#

@glad birch well unfortunately, I've hit a point where I don't know how to assist you further apart from spending a lot of time.
You might wait for someone who knows how to help you get more log output that's helpful.

But I expect Unity (the game engine) to support more debugging/log tools, and possibly debug access on some level, but that takes skill/experience to really figure out.

@glossy acorn Whether you got your extra key, assuming you bought the game when the deal was still going on, is between you and Steam rather than here.

Has anyone else been experiencing a massive drop in performance at random intervals (generally within the first 5-10 min of play)? Before the drop everything is running smoothly but then FPS drops to ~1/3rd. Even if I quite and start the game again the FPS drop persists (even in the menu screen). If I restart my computer it fixes it temporarily, but once again drops within a few minutes of starting a game. Prior to the last patch RoR2 ran fine... and it even ran fine for the week following it's release which is puzzling.

It just happened again and I'm attaching my output_log from just loading up the game and experiencing the bad performance just being in the main menu - does anyone see anything suspicious that may point to the culprit?

#

yeah

river dagger
#

yes jawwaf

cloud hull
#

expand display drivers

timid mauve
#

^^^

river dagger
timid mauve
#

Do you know what your thermals are like during gameplay?

cloud hull
#

Ima place my money on that its using the igpu. What frame rate do you get in game?

river dagger
#

it runs hot but i have a deskfans what i rest my laptop on

cloud hull
#

What temp does it reach in game?

river dagger
#

i honestly never looked

cloud hull
#

You should do that real quick

river dagger
#

Would you like me to boot it up?

cloud hull
timid mauve
#

Pay attention to which one heats up faster as you play the game

cloud hull
#

cpus don't throttle until they hit 80C roughly right?

hallow leaf
#

depends if intel or amd

cloud hull
#

I'm paranoid and keep my cpu/gpu under 65C

river dagger
#

My cpu just jumped to 72

timid mauve
#

72C?

cloud hull
#

ofc :p

river dagger
hallow leaf
#

you should keep the game running on full screen for 10 minutes

#

and then check

river dagger
#

why has my gpu gone red like that?

cloud hull
#

I think it means its running as fast as the memory can go

river dagger
#

ok be back in 10

cloud hull
#

I can't wait until this game is runnable on igpu's

timid mauve
#

RoR2 on a stick

cloud hull
#

pls

river dagger
#

man it just went to 82c

timid mauve
#

The CPU?

cloud hull
#

is the core clock lower now?

#

seeing an 80C+ makes me spooked, even though they can handle it fine

river dagger
#

yeah the cpu

cloud hull
#

Is the cpu's Mhz lower now?

river dagger
#

has not changed

cloud hull
#

What's the gpu sitting at for temp and clock speed?

river dagger
#

i have 4 that i can choose from

#

was 82c

#

2394mz

cloud hull
#

is it laggy right now?

river dagger
#

yeah frammy

#

big spikes

timid mauve
#

Alright

hallow leaf
#

how do u check your fps?

timid mauve
#

Let's try something

cloud hull
#

odd, It doesn't sound like your being thermally throttled yet, but after an extended time you probably will

river dagger
#

has in build gforce

timid mauve
#

Close the game and go to the nvidia control panel

river dagger
#

ok

cloud hull
timid mauve
#

Go to the 3d settings tab

river dagger
#

yep

timid mauve
#

Click that dropdown under preferred graphics processor and show me the options

#

?

river dagger
#

auto select and intergrated

#

i cant snip sorry

cloud hull
#

So he has the nvidia card selected, im lost now

timid mauve
#

Real quick, can you right click on the risk of rain exe and click "start with graphics processor" if you have the option

river dagger
timid mauve
#

Hmmm

#

Just try it with the nvidia card and then tell me what happens to the thermals

#

Also, if the VRAM gets maxed out, let me know

cloud hull
#

his nvidia gpu was hitting over 80C when he ran it before

#

so it definetly was being used

timid mauve
#

His cpu was as well

#

I think might be a VRAM issue

cloud hull
#

My friend plays on a 1050ti, and another on a 750ti(2GB vram). so i don't think vram would be an issue, but you never know.

timid mauve
#

Well, he has enough physically

#

But it was maxing out before

cloud hull
#

lemme go look at that again, i didn't pay attention

#

Looks like his screenshot was showing the memory clock speed maxing out. Am I reading that wrong?

timid mauve
#

No, you're right

#

Wait, dumb question

#

Doughnutboy, does it do this with other 3d games?

cloud hull
#

I'm betting on drivers now. (I'm out of ideas)

river dagger
#

all games

#

i really struggle on some games

cloud hull
#

πŸ€”

river dagger
#

but i thought i had a good gaming laptop i paid 600 pound for it

#

2 years ago

cloud hull
#

You do have a good gaming laptop

#

When is the last time you updated your drivers for the gpu. It's worth a shot checking I guess

river dagger
#

last night

#

for mk11

#

and god damn i had to refund because it was unplayable

timid mauve
#

Hmmmm

cloud hull
#

In the nvidia control panel, can you see if v-sync is enabled

#

if so, turn it off

#

vsync bad

timid mauve
#

Another stupid question, when was the last time you did a windows update?

river dagger
#

it auto updates

#

so it should be the lastest one

#

i have found something odd tho

#

how come my display is not being used by my graphics card

cloud hull
#

I think that's normal?

#

Since it only uses the nvidia gpu for high intensity applications

river dagger
#

but the 1050ti has more vram

cloud hull
#

its a power saving feature

river dagger
#

why use 128mb when you can use 4gb lol

#

tbf its never unplugged because i dont do lan partys im a family man lol

cloud hull
#

Its a power saving feature, just how they work

#

I'm honestly so confused about this. It's a universal issue with all your games lagging

river dagger
#

yeah i sturggle to get a steady 40fps

#

struggle

#

i thought this card would piss all over most games tbf

cloud hull
#

it does

#

This is a system specific issue. My friends use the same card to play high end games

river dagger
#

i upgraded my ram so it was 16gb from 8

#

I have no idea i literate to a certain point then, its blur to me

#

like gpu overclocking and all that, i can just maintain

#

brb

#

ok im back

#

any ideas hivemind?

woven star
#

@river dagger is your monitor plugged into the GPU or the motherboard?

river dagger
#

its a gaming laptop

woven star
#

What laptop is it?

river dagger
#

Rog asus

timid mauve
#

Is it only steam games?

river dagger
#

no and games on epic

#

i can play old games fine like doom command and conquer

timid mauve
#

Can you open up task manager and give me a screenshot of the performance tab

cloud hull
#

of your only having issues with risk of rain, your normal then.

timid mauve
#

As well as the number of processes running

#

It's all games

cloud hull
#

40fps after the first few stages is normal

#

My rx580 drops down to 20-30 fps late game

timid mauve
#

It's all games for him though

cloud hull
#

he said 40fps above

#

So I'm thinking there is a lack of agreement on the definition of lag, or the expectations i guess

covert thicket
#

Is the gpu overclocked?

cloud hull
#

hey Dough, what are the other games you've played that have lagged for you?

river dagger
#

pub

timid mauve
#

Uh oh

river dagger
#

whats up?

timid mauve
#

Why are 8 gigs of ram taken up idling

cloud hull
#

inb4 firefox

timid mauve
#

And your GPU at 53%

cloud hull
#

it likes to eat 2-3Gb's of ram

timid mauve
#

Not 7 gigs though

cloud hull
#

i think he meant thats the usage while pubg is open

#

if that's what he meant when he said pub

timid mauve
#

The screenshot

river dagger
#

i have risk of rain open

cloud hull
#

ahh

river dagger
#

sorry hang on

cloud hull
#

My 16Gb system sits around 4-6 GB's of ram usage while idle. Windows 10 makes full use of that extra ram if you give it to it

#

7GB's is nothing to worry about, esp with firefox open lol

river dagger
timid mauve
#

Do you want to start playing with config files, or does anyone else have a good lead?

#

Oh also,

#

You can just paste into discord

#

You don't need to use paint

cloud hull
#

I might ask for help in a programming discord I chill in. Couple thousand people hang out there, so one might have some insight.

#

I'll let ya know if anyone wants to help

river dagger
#

sound

timid mauve
#

Out of curiosity, how many processes are running

#

Make sure for all users

river dagger
#

ugh 92

timid mauve
#

That isn't too bad for 6 gigs ram idling

cloud hull
#

Yeah, its 10/10 normal

timid mauve
#

What's wrong with this thing?

cloud hull
#

I havn't the faintest clue, but im trying to read around on some forms

#

I want to figure this thing out, because it makes me mad that I can't fix it

#

I mean the real last idea I have, is doing a clean driver install for the gpu

#

some easy to follow steps, since i have no other ideas

timid mauve
#

Unrelated note

#

disk1 D: G: F:

#

What's up with that

cloud hull
#

huh, didn't notice that, weird

river dagger
#

Partitioned the drives so it would be cleaner for install, games films and the like

timid mauve
#

Three partitions on one drive?

river dagger
#

1tb

#

i think

cloud hull
#

Fair enough

timid mauve
#

Why not use explorer? Now there's three partition tables

river dagger
#

i like firefox

gusty cargo
#

Just played a game where during stage 2 teleporter my FPS dropped from 80-100 to ~20. I didn't notice any spikes in CPU/RAM usage and I'm attaching the output log if anyone can help me figure this out... dying to play this game but I've been unable to for the last 2 weeks or so

cloud hull
#

Is that a re-producible issue for you?

gusty cargo
#

Yep

#

Happens every time I play

#

Before the last patch it didnt happen though

#

I imagine something changed that is casuing it

cloud hull
#

you might want to put it in the bug report channel then. maybe

gusty cargo
#

Yeah, hope it's an acknowledged bug and will be fixed soon - thanks

river dagger
#

cs:go i struggle on as well no mans skys

#

list is endless lol

cloud hull
#

Try the clean install of your nvidia drivers

#

and make sure you download the drivers from your laptops manufactures website

river dagger
#

anyone that help?
