That's a shame because the game otherwise plays flawlessly (~120 FPS usually, though I had the occasional hang before, so being able to trigger it in a reproducible way is a nice opportunity).

Hello, ever since scorched acres i have been unable to get a run in as it very consistently crashes every single time with this error : UnityPlayer.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
in module UnityPlayer.dll at 0033:9a1b86c4.
If anyone has any experience on this i would appreciate some help.
I have tried even a windows reinstall which didn't fix the problem, and it only happens on ror 2

Can someone please tell me why Rex disappeared from my character select screen after I installed R2API, ItemStats and StatsDisplay?

@barren thistle You may have installed an older version of R2api that doesn't recognize Rex as a character. I had the same issue earlier and I found a reddit post that resolved the problem.

I'm having trouble getting a consistent fps. Sometimes my CPU works at or near 100% and my fps is good, and sometimes it drops to 20% usage and wont be very good at all. I thought it might be tied to what was currently on the screen but I'm having trouble nailing anything down as the specific cause. Does anyone have any advice on what could fix it? Using NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1070 for GPU and Intel Core i5 6600K for CPU. Even as I'm typing this I have the game paused in the background and my CPU and GPU usage increased from ~20% to ~80% each, and my FPS increased as well. Can offer more information if that would be helpful.
proper horizon
@raw panther Yes, you can. The profile is typically in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata(ACCOUNTNUMBER)\632360\remote\UserProfiles" You can also just verify the game files again through Steam and the game will redownload the saves from Steam cloud (if it wasn't disabled).
proper horizon
@formal geode Are you on a laptop by any chance? Did you update all your drivers?
formal geode
I am on a desktop and I have checked to make sure everything is up to date, as well as doing a fresh install.
proper horizon
@formal geode The performance profile of RoR2 is such that it's a CPU-heavy game the later in the stages you are with tons and tons of creatures spawning in the level severely bottlenecking the CPU. Disabling corpses, shadows, and other features might help performance.
formal geode
The problem is even the 2nd and 3rd level are having problems, and my CPU usage isn't stuck at 100% or anything, but increases and decreases seemingly at random (It does seem like the elite versions of mobs cause problems but I can't be sure) Sometimes when I pause the game it catches up and starts to use 80-100% again.
I've tried playing on both max and min graphics and there doesn't seem to be much of a difference
proper horizon
What kind of performance do you get out of the game in terms of average FPS in the problematic scenes/ levels?
formal geode
It area 4 I can go below 10 during the boss fight, in the 2nd and 3rd area its between 15-45 usually
proper horizon
In the first level cycle?!

Anywhere from Right now its at 180, paused its 240
By first level cycle do you mean pre-loop?
proper horizon
yeah
formal geode
No mods, I'll try to verify them but I just reinstalled it so we'll see
proper horizon
Your rig should be able to breeze through the game given what you have. Perhaps try restarting your PC and/or disable any background apps that might interfere. Be sure to disable any v-sync in or outside the game (nVidia control panel) as well.
formal geode
Yeah, I've tweaked with the control panel settings for a while now too, I'm thinking that my hardware just doesn't like the software for some reason. I play other games that seem like they would be more taxing on my rig no problem so its weird that RoR doesn't do so well
at last my start menu gets 400+ fps lol
proper horizon
The main menu with its static scene is GPU-bound so that would explain that.

I appreciate your help though, I'll keep tinkering and hope for the best

The game is no longer optimized, and large packs of enemies tank the framerate to single-digit levels when they didn't before the update. Settings now have to be lower than I ever had them before the update just to get the game running relatively smoothly.

@pseudo drift Disable v-sync in and outside the game as well as the in-game framerate limiter.
@elfin mauve With the latest update I've actually experienced a performance increase on my machine. But I guess the bottom line is, running the game on a toaster will get you toaster performance, naturally.

Hello, i have this a couple of time when playing with friend:https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/385121140982415360/597371652027711509/unknown.png?width=994&height=560
do you guys have a fix ?
and after that, the game simply close by itself
proper horizon
@thorn vigil Nope, it's unclear what the problem is/was. In any case, the game leaves behind a crash dump after closing abruptly. You may have a look at that, post it here or send it in. It's always a good idea to verify the game files under Steam, restart the PC as well as let Steam update itself if prompted.
thorn vigil
i can't find a crash text file
i had that few times; yesterday and today, we were just playing (i was hosting the game) and when the run was on for a decent amount of time, the game did that and crashed.
Between yesterday crash and today's crash, i did restart my computer (turned it off during night)
proper horizon
Please verify the game files.
thorn vigil
i'm doing that rn, but what i'm looking for ? a .txt file with crash report ? there are none
proper horizon
There should be an output log and a crash.dmp
thorn vigil
at the root of the risk of rain 2 folder ?
proper horizon
Either there or within the profile folder (Steam\userdata\XXXXX\632360). Since I've never had the game crash on me, I'm not perfectly sure where the logs are located at. Probably in the root folder though.
proper horizon
Then try: \Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2
Yeah, that's the actual profile (save game).
thorn vigil
that's where i start searching at first, i didn't find anything :/

Then, it seems, the game didn't leave behind a crash log, which is a pity.
thorn vigil
so i can't fix that problem ?
proper horizon
I wouldn't know since we don't know what the problem is.
thorn vigil
yeah i understand ^^'

thorn vigil
found them
C:\Users******\AppData\Local\Temp\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\Crashes\
so, you want the crash.dmp ?
proper horizon
Aw! Very nice!
thorn vigil
what i send you ? error.log ? crash.dmp ?
proper horizon
Just drag and drop both in here.
thorn vigil
did you find something ?
proper horizon
The error is caused by an access violation. Please reinstall the game and remove any second (virtual) video adapters and/or Citrix drivers you might have installed.
thorn vigil
ok, i'll reinstall the game, but wdym by video adaptater ? same for citrix driver
and will i lose my progress while reinstalling ?
merry osprey
no you won't
And to make it easier to find the crash file
just open your windows search and type in %temp% , in that temp folder find Hopoo games and you will find the crash file
Although you really won't get much help out of that, i have been having that crash since the new patch hit and it happens every single round.

I have an issue with my mouse. It seems to stutter along, slowly when moving the mouse by about a half second or a second in menus and whatnot. Input is fine, clicks aren't delayed, just seems mainly to be in menus where the mouse is released from being locked. RoR2 isnt the only game it does this in, it seems to do it in Monster Hunter World and GTA5 among some other games. I've googled for fixes, but everything is so different, I'm not sure what's causing it. Anyone else getting the same thing?
orchid flame
Having a weird issue with the mouse as well but it's only with risk of rain, not sure if it's the same issue as you or not but it sounds kinda similar and i'm not sure what to do but i can't play because of it
elfin mauve
Okay, I'm gonna try this again but less angry.
There has been a massive performance decrease for me since the new update came out. Before the update, I could maintain around 60 frames per second even with droves of enemies onscreen. I had a good framerate up to and past the point where things stopped spawning.
That is no longer the case.
Now, with even lower graphics settings than I had them before the update, it seems even fifteen or so enemies causes the framerate to drop. During teleporter events, the framerate will drop to such a degree that at one point I was certain the game was about to crash.
To my knowledge, nothing about my system has changed between now and before the update. I am honestly having a horrid time trying to diagnose the issue here, because ultimately it just makes no sense. The same load at the same graphical settings should logically produce the same or at least very similar results, but that's not the case here. Something about the update seems to have changed how enemies are processed, and now this machine can't handle it. I'm not sure how to proceed.
elfin mauve
In fact, past a certain point, it seems as though lowering graphical settings no longer does anything to alleviate the problem.
I don't recall this periodic stuttering happening before the update either.
elfin mauve
Textures now on lowest setting, seemingly no difference between that and medium settings for framerate.
Starting to think this isn't a graphical issue.
elfin mauve
Yep, just cranked graphics back up, not a bit of difference in performance. Buttery smooth normally, framerate tanks with any decent number of enemies on screen.
Something's screwy.
Next check, double-checking to see if vsync options reset on update.
...Huh? There isn't even an entry for it on the NVIDIA control panel. And when the entry's added, it defaults to integrated graphics and vsync on.
Weird. Changed that. Will test now.
elfin mauve
Seems to have mostly fixed the problem
The update just screwed up previously set settings
undone solar
@orchid flame it plays fine for me. aiming around with the mouse locked isn't laggy AT ALL. its just in menus when the mouse is locked.
orchid flame
@undone solar I mean I can PLAY it just the mouse was messing up and making it difficult/unplayable with how the mouse was, it was really bizarre but I figured it out
undone solar
@orchid flame the solutions i find keep having something to do with either vsync (which i never have on), high scaling DPI something or other, or graphics settings i just dont have the option of changing. so I have yet to find a solution sadly :(
elfin mauve
I retract my previous statement, it's still messed up.
So I've effectively ruled out graphical issues I think.
Though turning off vsync again seems to have fixed the stuttering.
There's still the performance tanking issue.
I suppose it could still be a graphics thing, and I'm just looking at the wrong settings.
But it seems like no matter what I have things set to, the outcome is the same.
Upped the resolution, and now the stuttering is back? This is approaching nonsensical, I can't do diagnostics like this.
Once again, it seems like the very act of having enemies spawn and be accounted for is slowing the game down an abnormal amount. Stutters seem to happen on spawn at times. Too many enemies (and it would appear, too many effects) slows the game to slideshow levels.
But otherwise, the game runs just fine no matter what I have the graphics set to.
I just don't know what to do at this point.
And again, I double, triple, quadruple checked during heavy enemy load, changing graphical settings has little to no effect on performance one way or the other.
I don't think there's any more I can do or check without inside knowledge of the game and its engine. I'm hoping a developer sees this.
At this point, it's a total crapshoot on my end. Maybe the game's allocating too many resources per spawned entity?

sup bois, my friend is having problems with the game. he has horrible fps straight from opening the game, but when he played it earlier this wouldn't happen. He does have a high end pc so the problems doesnt lay there. Can anyone help?
ashen heron
if he has been using the pc for a while heat could be the issue, id check thermal paste on the cpu and blow out any dust in the pc with compressed air. @sinful lantern
if the thermal paste is crusted over it needs to be replaced, it should be a paste or an oily liquid , you can still run the pc for mundane tasks like web browsing; but any other workloads like gaming or rendering video will slow it down to a crawl and potentially damage hardware
ashen heron
jones issue was the improper primary graphics adapter, just as a note to anyone to make sure your display is not plugged into your motherboard and is plugged into your gpu, display adapter defaults to native output of the device its plugged into and may significantly reduce performance, these graphics outputs can also be switched in the amd catalyst software and nvidia control centers which can usually be accessed in the context menu by right clicking the desktop
merry osprey
Has anyone found anything related to the damn unity crash?
ashen heron
unity is a shitty engine, thats your answer
merry osprey
That's what they built the game on
Not like i have any power on that
And unity is a fine engine
ashen heron
and it sucks so youre gonna have to deal with it
it works well for single threaded games, any multithreaded workloads like that of this game annihilates unity's resource management
merry osprey
How many games out there today utilize more than 1 thread to begin with anyway?
most of them use literally 1
ashen heron
quite a few
merry osprey
Anyway that's a different subject.. now to fix the issue is another story
ashen heron
I can name 4 or 5 off the top of my head
merry osprey
Actually, has anyone even received a response email from hopoo? I mailed them a week ago with the error logs etc and no reply yet..
ashen heron
what crash are we talking about exactly
ashen heron
lol hopoo prolly cant fix that
merry osprey
It only happened after the new patch
So they should be able to fix it
I ran the game 70 hours without crashing, as soon as scorched acres hit it crashes every single freaking run
ashen heron
just randomly on scorched acres
merry osprey
no i mean after teh patch scorced acres hit
The new patch on june? Past 2 weeks
before that i had 70 hours without any crashes
AS soon as they launched the new patch with Rex it started. That's for me at least, dunno when other people first encountered it
ashen heron
yeah cuz any 0x delineation is a location in ram, usually, i dont think its a typical error message, it may be fixable on hopoos end, unlikely though; typically an engine issue
merry osprey
Yes i thought so too, but that's really weird though
ashen heron
but for now if you got extra harddrives to use, and havent verified the integrity of the game files, id change the install location and verify integrity
merry osprey
I literally got a new rig about 3 weeks ago, everything else runs fine
So i know it's not on my hardware
I tested on hdd, on ssd, reinstalled windows
Non of the above fixed it
ashen heron
why would you reinstall windows for ror 2 :/
ashen heron
ah
merry osprey
I reinstalled windows cus my drivers mucked up. The new rig i changed from intel to AMD, kept the previous gpu and i had to mess with so many drivers i got annoyed and reinstalled
ashen heron
you wouldnt happen to be running ryzen would you?
merry osprey
I would like to know if the issue is occuring only on ryzen though
I mean some people above posted the same crash, i never asked them about their rig though
merry osprey
And at this point i need to do some more testing. Cus when i play with my buddy it crashes. I did a solo run which lasted 80 minutes without issues. So it's boggling my mind even more
ashen heron
and it may have some issues with whatever instructions on ryzen that may take issue with their optimizations
merry osprey
I mean even if that's the case, i would appreciate if the devs that have put a mail there to send them issues bothered to look at the logs and give an answer telling me it's ryzen related
But now i am here, speculating things and trying "fixes"..
ashen heron
nothing you can do can fix it unless youre well versed in regedit
updating your bios firmware could work
merry osprey
The error log says unity version 2018
So i am not sure about the unity update recently

its an older update
they were just running an older version before that
idk you should check patchnotes i could be wrong

@elfin mauve I have the same, or at least a similar issue, when it happened to me I watched my CPU and GPU usage as I played.

Hi friends,
I'm having a game-breaking problem with my graphics. For some reason, upon booting my game, I drop to maybe 5-10 frames, and it stays like this until I close the game. The cursor is lagged WAY behind where I point it, and the entire game is slowed down to an absolute crawl. This even effects my steam overlay when I open it, everything (keystrokes, mousemovement, ect) is slowed down. I know it's not a problem with compatibility, IE I know the computer can run the game on top graphics with no issues, but I can't seem to get rid of this strange frame lag. I've verified my files with steam, I've tried reverting back to a previous version, h*ck I've even uninstalled the game and then reinstalled it. But I just can't get rid of this lag.
How am I supposed to play plantboi if I can't play my game! D: (Please help.)

I'm having an issue with my game - It crashes and makes my computer freeze up and run into a graphics card error, but it seems to only happen so far when I tab out during a game. No speed issues, no actual glitches or anything, no crashing on start up - Just a sudden crash which stops everything completely when I occasionally tab out then tab back in again to play more. It will work fine for a while after tabbing out and back in but then crash, or, it will crash during the time I'm tabbed out. It never happens when I don't tab. I had a blue screen for the first ever time on this comp due to this saying it was a memory issue, but upon looking more into it my memory is fine and It's led me to think it might be something to do with the game possibly?

Hi, the last couple of weeks all of our games have ended with the host's screen going black and the rest of the team being thrown out into the lobby with a message that the server has shut down. The host can press escape, which makes the background a bit more visible, and quit the game through that menu. No matter who of us is hosting, it always ends like that. Sometimes early, sometimes late. It sadly makes the game unplayable, since there's no hope of a good long run.

My game file curropted, not sure why, thus i have to restart from the beginning, is there a way to get a completed save file? Its so demotivating

My friend keeps crashing randomly midgame, their comp specs are easily enough to play the game. and the game keeps auto-setting to a resolution that they can't use. is there any way to fix this and prevent crashes? or some common cause idk about? it's making them burn out on the game having to restart multiple times per run
proper horizon
@supple wave Who knows, could be anything. For starters, have a look at the crash and output logs to see what went wrong.

Hi all,
After the June update, I'm having the same issue that sTeaLth reported yesterday where the menu options display strangely, but verifying time zone, reinstalling VC++ 2015, verifying integrity of game files, updating drivers, etc., did not resolve the issue. The only menu option that works is options (I have to alt+f4 to quit the game). I can sometimes click "TITLE_SINGLEPLAYER" but it soft locks the game. Anyone have similar issues? I didn't have this issue before June
gray rock
@fringe haven Hi, i join that club but for a reason i dont know cant write nothing

Thank you @proper horizon i reinstalled the visual C++ thing and the game is perfectly working this is awesome yay
frank flax
so, after awhile, I'm having trouble
in the middle of online matches, the game will randomly crash
it's growing rather frustrating
I remember there being a fix awhile ago, because I remember the crashing ceased after awhile, but I'm afraid I don't remember it
I'll have to look further into the cause
nope, happened again
this game worked fine before the update, so I find this a little strange
it's not that the game even runs poorly, it just sometimes just dies on me
to be specific, I'm playing archer on monsoon

Hi im having trouble with connecting to another players game
i have verified files multiple times as well as reinstalled
so far it is only my dad that i can not connect with and we can even connect if my brother is hosting
orchid flame
can't launch with three people?

@frank flax It could be any number of things happening software- and hardware-wise. Please check the output logs the game leaves behind after crashing.
noble lion
has anyone experienced not being able to connect to specific friends? my game goes laggy on character select and is super late to join in game, once you get in you can attack but nothing happens.
proper horizon
@noble lion It could be lag related depending on wherever the host is based at and on his and your type of connection. Type "ping" in the console to get the numbers.
supple wave
Where would we look in the output log to tell what caused a crash? Its a massive text folder and i have no idea what means it crashed and what doesn't.
proper horizon
Alternatively just post the files here and we'll have a gander whether anything helpful can be gleaned from them.

a friend of mine has a pretty old pc evrytime he tryes to play he told me gets up view for the landing pod but it never shows up what can you do

I've been having an issue lately where the game plays fine at 120 FPS, but then I just get these severe frame drops down to like 7-8 fps, and audio starts chopping in and out. It used to happen once every few minutes, but now it's gotten to the point where it's every few seconds for a few seconds. Drivers are up to date, it happens modded or unmodded, and I've done a fresh reinstall. No other game is doing this.
proper horizon
Check your background apps (virus scanners, Windows Update, etc), they might interfere.
reef wing
Neither are running, and I've made sure to force RoR2 to use my 1070 instead of integrated
proper horizon
When did this odd behavior start happening? What changed?
reef wing
Once I picked up the game again recently, like a week ago.
Also just tried a reinstall on a different drive, wipe of profile, and computer restart.
Graphic settings also don't seem to matter, it happens at min and max, 60hz or 144hz, 60 or 120 cap, fullscreen or windowed
Vsync off, half, or always also doesn't make any difference
proper horizon
Ryzen CPU?
reef wing
i5 6600k 3.5ghz
Meanwhile I'm running FFXIV at all max settings and a reshade installed at a solid 90-100fps
proper horizon
No doubt strange.
reef wing
I'm thinking it still might be something with the CPU honestly. I feel like it's been acting up a bit and the performance graph shows it spike when the game stutters
proper horizon
Be sure to completely cleanse any and all mods from the game, then reinstall. Verify game files as well.
How's the core temperatures under RoR2 stress when performance is breaking?
reef wing
Yeah I made sure to just completely delete the ROR2 folder entirely before reinstall
Lemme check
RIP i think I lost my temp check software at some point, what'd you recommend?
proper horizon
It is a most curious behavior that hasn't been reported before. RoR2 gets CPU heavy the later in the game but not like this.
MSI Afterburner
reef wing
Yeah and this is happening in menus, selection, immediately upon landing, etc
proper horizon
You sure you forced the discrete graphics card in the nVidia control panel and disabled any and all v-sync (in-game too)?
reef wing
Yeah any setting I could set to my 1070 I did
All my cores are between 44 and 55 Celsius
Overall it's at around 50
proper horizon
Any weird devices?
reef wing
What do you mean?
proper horizon
secondary, tertiary audio or video adapters (physical or virtual) that you could interfere?
Did the game ever crash?
reef wing
Not that I can think of. I have my VIVE plugged in, but it's not on atm.
It only crashed once, recently
proper horizon
Go find the output log and crash dump, those might give us a hint.
They're located at C:\Users\USER\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2
reef wing
Found the output log, anything I should look for specifically, or just upload?
I did have some mods installed, I'm wondering if there's any folders other than the main game folder that may have been affected even those I reinstalled clean
proper horizon
Yes, that could very well be.
reef wing
Part of the reason I tried with a brand new profile.
Besides the ROR2 game directory itself, and the userdata in Steam, anything else I should delete if I do a full reinstall?
proper horizon
I dunno, never had any mods.
reef wing
Hmm, well do we know all the places ROR2 stores it's files? I can delete this appdata folder, the one under userdata in steam, the installation folder itself
proper horizon
I'm not sure simply deleting files will do it as the registry might be affected as well. Someone versed with mods could help here. Since you installed those mods, there are surely instructions as well to remove them properly.
reef wing
Yeah I'll check with the modding discord on that. I can't fully remember if the stuttering existed before or after installing mods
reef wing
Yeah doesn't seem like anything. Guess all I have now is to submit a bug report and hope getting a new computer in a month or so resolves the problem
dusk mica
does BepInExPack from Thunderstore still work?
proper horizon
No idea. You're better off asking that in the RoR discord for mods.
reef wing
So a couple updates on my scenario @proper horizon
At first it seems like Nvidia overlay was causing an issue, turning this off somewhat (?) lessened it
But then it continued again, so I took a look in BIOS and turned off this feature called Intel SpeedStep, which toggles two different powerstates to save power. This was making my CPU randomly cycle down and thus spike
So while it seems unlikely anyone else will have this issue, lol, turning that off in BIOS seems to have resolved it

does tech support include mods ?

Hey Tech Support guys .
I've been trying to install mods .
So I've managed to get them installed properly ( i think )
But the console that opens up alongside risk of rain 2 is getting some errors and it's stuck loading on the beginning screen
reef wing
You're gonna want to check out the modding discord FAQ for help with that
pulsar vessel
ive started getting weird input lag after the newest update, ive already upated my drivers and everything else as usual but im still getting input lag even after lowering my settings (even though I should be able to run the game fine) I have v sync disabled and read through the faq
primal trench
The Invite link is expired .
orchid flame
ive currently got my game stuck in windowed mode and it wont go back to regular full screen
proper horizon
@pulsar vessel Bad overall frame rate usually begets input lag . If only input lag is the issue, please do the following: First, try unplugging and then replugging your controller. If that does not fix it, look under Device manager and make sure there are no controllers. If you have VJOY installed, please uninstall it!
@orchid flame It won't revert back to fullscreen even if you set it so in the Settings? Try ALT+ENTER for fullscreen mode.

Does anyone know how to do this?

No cheats here.
formal geode
@reef wing This sounds like an exact issue I've been trying to resolve for a while now, I'll try that and see if it works for me
reef wing
@formal geode I also discovered Steam spiking, which was caused by my controller being plugged in. After disabling SpeedStep, and unplugging my controller, everything is 100% normal again for me
If you want to do it, it's under your Advanced BIOS settings
A small disclaimer about it, it will slightly raise the heat of your CPU, as well as power consumption, but mine was sitting at a healthy 50C before and I have a 750W PSU
formal geode
I was reading that so I'll test it out, I use MSI afterburner, do you think that will be affected?
formal geode
Thanks so much for posting your problems and fix Cruor, I can finally play the game at 120 FPS instead of 5

hey guys just popping in to see if the performance issues with high end computers is being addressed, or is aware of? Frame drops make the game unplayable after the 4th stage with very good hardware, and i really want to enjoy this game and would like to just know if its being actively looked at, i have a Radeon rx 580 gpu, ryzen 7 gpu, and 16g ram
supple wave
This is the output log for my girlfriends issue of random crashes:
all that happens is, my screen freezes. for a brief moment its just a frozen screen but i can hear myself still able to attack and so on. but within 5 seconds it will entirely break and a small window for the game pops up saying something, and either forces itself closed, or i have to force it. there's nothing consistent about it. sometimes happens in action in game. sometimes when walking with no enemies around. sometimes on the title screen. my settings are also NOT maxed out.
Specs:
Windows 10 64-bit,
Intel Core i3-6100 CPU @ 3.70GHz,
8.0GB RAM,
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950
Anyone got any ideas?
Summary is a perspective of what happens from her point of view.
Also when she restarts the game to rejoin she has to reset her resolution every time, it doesn't want to save.

Does anyone else have major issues with the mouse? Since the last update the mouse moves on its own on menu's. When I am in game its fine but then all the icons say "unknown" but are constantly switching between unknown and m1/m2/e/r/q. Once I have come off my mouse for windows is completely messed up. Mouse vanishes, doesn't change to a clicky hand or a scroll icon etc. Have to restart pc to fix!

@silent tusk are you still having this issue
silent tusk
Haven't crashed since I updated video drivers but I've only played one game, I'll follow up if I have another incident

For whatever reason, Vsync: Always limits my fps to 60 when my display is 144Hz. Vsync: Half limits it to 72 fps, which is correct.
Is this a known issue?
Seems like it only happens when I have twitch open on another monitor. Which is weird because with an unlocked framerate I still get 200+ fps with twitch open.

does the output log only save the last game
because my last game i froze a lot but didnt crash but i mainly want to fix the crashing
toxic glacier
AMD Ryzen 5 1400 quad core 3.2GHz / RX580
silent tusk
Ahhh okay that's funny bc I have an AMD cpu and an RX580 as well
Does your game just crash with a quick Unity pop-up that disappears quickly?
silent tusk
Okay so we're both suffering hahaha
toxic glacier
i didnt think that was a big deal because i saw it for like .5 seconds but
if we are both getting it
silent tusk
Yepppp I'm having the same issue - I have a random hypothesis that you can help me test
Can you open your AMD Radeon Settings?
toxic glacier
does your game freeze for like 3 seconds a lot too or is it only me
toxic glacier
that stopped for me after i reinstalled so
silent tusk
in Gaming > Risk of Rain 2 > Profile Graphics, check if "Surface Format Optimization" is on
for the AMD control panel
toxic glacier
it was on
silent tusk
Flip it off
I turned it off two days ago and haven't crashed since BUT that may just be luck
Can't hurt to have it off tho
silent tusk
Also submit a support ticket here: https://gearboxsoftware.zendesk.com/hc/en-us and specify the CPU and GPU
Yeah I get that trust me
But we've narrowed it down a bit with the CPU/GPU combo, both AMD CPUs and RX 580s
Should make it easier to fix for the devs 😃
toxic glacier
Yeah
silent tusk
Let me know if the Surface Optimization fixes it, like I said it's a huge longshot but it miiiiiight be related
silent tusk
Unfortunately I haven't heard back from the devs yet nor have I confirmed that mine is fixed but you're not alone haha
Same usually
toxic glacier
what made you think of it
silent tusk
Just got the RX580 a week or two ago and noticed games started crashing around then - but I wasn't sure if it was the card or the new update
Figured I'd look for anomalies in the control panel
silent tusk
Gotcha
Perhaps it's the update specifically then
I don't think it's the CPU bc I've used AMD cpus for years
toxic glacier
It didnt crash before but it froze still before
silent tusk
Both of us having RX580s is supsicious tho especially seeing how the game had AMD issues at launch
Yeah that is weird but if reinstall fixed it it could just be a file issue
toxic glacier
rigged against us

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:

Crash Dumps
If the game crashes it will generate a Dump file. Similar to the Output Log, it will help us track down the source of the crash. Please attach any crash dumps if possible! The file is located at:

it opens a tab of unity for a slight period of time

maybe throwing the game on an hdd would do something
slow it down perhaps but maybe that's why it's not loading files??

according to the output log there IS a crash dump generated by it
go check the crashes folder

Doesn't seem like a reinstall is gonna fix this
Wonder if @toxic glacier has a similar log
fervent rampart
I don't know
in this case the game was able to intercept the crash and generate a stacktrace
fervent rampart
I don't think winsock is doing anything nefarious
silent tusk
I don't think it's linked to the TP event or any specific activity
fervent rampart
when exactly did it happen?
silent tusk
It's definitely not specifically any character either
This time it happened as I approached the teleporter in Prismatic stage 2, can't remember if it was a response to me activiating the TP
but I've definitely had crashes at other points in a stage as well
Fairly certain I've had crashes outside the TP event but I can't say with 100% confidence
fervent rampart
This is a little curious
Collision (UnityEngine.GameObject) is missing surface def
toxic glacier
huh
silent tusk
Yoshi, check %localappdata% > Temp > Hopoo etc
toxic glacier
my output log?
silent tusk
Do you have a crash there?
silent tusk
toxic glacier
and havent crashed
silent tusk
fervent rampart
all I can do right now is speculate though since I don't have the source code
but that's the fun part really
silent tusk
Ye ye
toxic glacier
fervent rampart
there you go
fervent rampart
you've sent it to hopoo right?
silent tusk
yes sir as well as gearbox support
fervent rampart
that's all we can do now I guess
silent tusk
seems so
toxic glacier
wait wat do you want me to do with the crash file
silent tusk
say "hey nerds fix your game" that'll get em
silent tusk
good question there
W7 64bit, Gigabyte motherboard, game on an SSD with DDR3 1720 ram
Actually hey @toxic glacier is your CPU or RAM overclocked
toxic glacier
no
fervent rampart
Hang on a second
silent tusk
damn
toxic glacier
wait maybe
fervent rampart
I found this thread that has the exact same unity crash. I think this is a unity issue
silent tusk
Yikes
fervent rampart
I reinstalled the 2010 c++-libraries which came with Unity. It seems it fixed that problem.
silent tusk
Hmmmm
fervent rampart
Try that?
toxic glacier
i havent crashed yet
silent tusk
oof okay i'll see if i can just update it
fervent rampart
update it
silent tusk
The Texture Filter Optimization or whatever didnt fix it btw yoshi
fervent rampart
You can also just go into programs and applications and uninstall it there
and then reinstall it
fervent rampart
i agree to the license terms blah blah blah
silent tusk
gonna unistall the 2010 version and install fresh one too
yes ik lol
fresh installed 2010vs and 2015-2019 vs
now I just gotta play for 2-3 hours to see if I can replicate a crash
silent tusk
lol I'll do some lunar grinding
The issue with unreplicatable crashes is the whole testing fixes thing
fervent rampart
@silent tusk ping me with an update
silent tusk
will do cap'n

supple wave
there seems to be alot of crashes recently, did something change? My girlfriend's been crashing and subsequently put off the game massively due to it, she has minimum cpu but above minimum everything else.
proper horizon
Well, the game does get updated regularly.
supple wave
I posted a description of it and a error log here a while back, any way to know if there's any idea of what the cause could be?
proper horizon
You'd have to have a look at the output log to get a sense what's going on. I suggest, though, that if the specs of the rig are that below the bare minimum it's a lost cause anyway.
supple wave
specs are all above the minimum, the cpu is the minimum but thats the only bottleneck.
and i have the output log but its huge and idk wtf i'm looking at.
proper horizon
What exactly are the specs?
supple wave
Windows 10 64-bit, Intel Core i3-6100 CPU @ 3.70GHz, 12.0GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950
HDD space also isn't an issue
proper horizon
Post the output log please.
supple wave
supple wave
pc
the game crashes all the time, its hard to go 20 mins without it crashing.
her description of what happens is:
all that happens is, my screen freezes. for a brief moment its just a frozen screen but i can hear myself still able to attack and so on. but within 5 seconds it will entirely break and a small window for the game pops up saying something, and either forces itself closed, or i have to force it. there's nothing consistent about it. sometimes happens in action in game. sometimes when walking with no enemies around. sometimes on the title screen. my settings are also NOT maxed out.
proper horizon
The output log shows no evidence of any crashes. It shows a leaving the lobby and the network shutting down afterwards
supple wave
so its her internet cutting out?
cause i'm usually the host and i can play for hours without stopping
proper horizon
Does it happen in singleplayer?
supple wave
we've only played multiplayer. what would it mean if it did happen in singleplayer?
or didnt i guess.
proper horizon
That therein an issue could lie. Her output log shows a perfectly normal game. No issues.
The lobby was left, the game shut down.
supple wave
oh so she should play singleplayer and see if it crashes?
still wouldnt resolve the random disconnects when in multiplayer though, and leaves the mystery of the game crashing without leaving a log.
hmm so what, could be something randomly deciding to close the game? firewall?
proper horizon
Random disconnects could be caused by various factors, among them connection issues, ISP issues, router, etc.
supple wave
alright i'll look into it. thank you for the help :)
Mind if i @ you with the results? successful or not
It can also crash on the title screen if that gives any more information that's helpful
proper horizon
I would suspect a hardware or driver issue. Be sure to reinstall the game, restart Steam, verify the game files and above update all drivers beforehand. Still, it's bare minimum specs, I wouldn't expect much even if it ran.
supple wave
its only the processor thats bare minimum though no?
proper horizon
Nope, the GPU as well. Just look at the reqs at the Steam page.
supple wave
i did, according to benchmark on google then the gpu is higher
acoustic estuary
i'm the one @supple wave was asking for. i decided to screencap the crash when it happened and the little window in case it's helpful. probably not though.
proper horizon
It'd be good to know if the crashing occurs in singleplayer as well.
acoustic estuary
thus far the crashing has not happened in single player, but i have only played single player once for about 12 minutes for a trial. it does crash on the title screen as well though.
proper horizon
And the crashes are more or less sporadic on the title screen as well?
acoustic estuary
it's really random. i have had some sessions in multi go without even one crash, while some days its repeatedly.
grizzled wave
Hi trying to play with a friend, he says no buttons are working, and the keybinds are set to "unknown", any ideas?
also the character instantly looks down and speeeeeens around. tryed disabling controller drivers
fervent rampart
Common issue. Check pins for a fix
grizzled wave
thanks alot
plucky remnant
Hello, I bought a new hard drive and as such I had to reinstall ror2. I ran into a problem where I could not change my monitor refresh rate. It is stuck at 59Hz and I use a 165Hz monitor. I ran into this problem when I first got the game at release and I was able to figure out the solution but I don't remember. I think it had something to do with having two monitors with different refresh rates. I would very much appreciate it if you could remind me how to fix it.
proper horizon
I'm not even sure RoR2 runs in proper fullscreen and not in some masked borderless windowed mode.
Two monitors with different refresh rates have always been troublesome for Unity games.
If you can somehow force the refresh rate in the graphics driver control panel... I don't remember the fix either.
Been too long.
silent tusk
@acoustic estuary you're not the only person to be having that problem
@fervent rampart played about 3 hours last night after I reinstalled C++, haven't crashed yet but can't conclusively say it's fixed
Got a response from Gearbox but it was incredibly unhelpful unfortunately, "hi reinstall the game and update your drivers :))))"
proper horizon
@plucky remnant Disable the framerate limiter and v-sync (also in the nVidia control panel) to see if that fixes it. If not, you can still set all these settings manually in the config file of RoR2.
plucky remnant
@proper horizon I already disabled the limiter and v-sync as I have a g-sync monitor. I have already modified the config file and even set it to read only but it just ignores it and locks it at 59Hz even though it is still set to 165Hz in the config.
proper horizon
@acoustic estuary Try the following: Please uninstall THEN reinstall VC++ 2015, shown here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
@plucky remnant And your other monitor is running at 60Hz?
plucky remnant
@proper horizon Yes
proper horizon
The game probably thinks it runs on that one.
proper horizon
@plucky remnant Just for testing, unplug your 60Hz monitor, then run the game to see how that goes.
plucky remnant
@proper horizon One step ahead of ya haha. I already did that and I even uninstalled and reinstalled without my second monitor plugged in to see if that would work.
proper horizon
You must disable G-sync as well.
plucky remnant
I'll see how that goes
supple wave
@proper horizon
Should we have just the 2015 one? i have all these and none of them are the 2015 one, @acoustic estuary doesn't have any 2015. should she uninstall all of them and just install the 2015 or should she just install the 2015 version?
silent tusk
- Unistall C++ 2010
- Download and install latest of this > https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
supple wave
I should point out that's my list of them i have no issues running the game at all, i only included the screenshot because we have multiple versions.
silent tusk
That assumes 64x OS
Mm gotcha yeah you're gonna have multiple versions
just clean install 2010 and update to the newest version as well
so far that has fixed my issue
supple wave
She has 2010,2012,2013,2017. should she reinstall the 2010 ones or uninstall all of them 2010 onwards?
supple wave
can you link to the 2010 please? the links above shows 2015
oh wait its the 2nd link nvm
supple wave
she does yeah

thorn vigil
I'll never be able to complete stage 20 cause of that '-' i hadto play in drizzle to have a chance to do it
silent tusk
try the C++ fix mentioned above
1 uninstall 2010
2 reinstall 2010
3 install newest version
thorn vigil
does that work ?
i never had that before rex update
btw, i'll try tomorrow, gonna sleep rn...
if someone answer me, plz @me
silent tusk
@thorn vigil to my knowledge it does work, I had those crashes since Rex and in the four hours of gameplay I've tried since that fix I haven't crashed yet
I can't say with certainty tho bc it's so hard to replicate crashes
thorn vigil
Yeah, they happened randomly, sometime at stage 4, sometimes way later (like this one) ¯_(ツ)_/¯
unique mountain
Gents - I've just reinstalled windows after some system file corruption, got all my drivers up to date and reinstalled RoR2, however, after having no issues previously my framerate is dogshit even in the menu, there is also a large amount of latency on cursor movements and menu changes (500ms+?)
Quality changes don't really do anything.
Stepping down from 1440p to 1080p doesn't really change anything, only stepping down to 720p really helps.
Have reinstalled the game, pretty sure it's not anything on my machine/hardware as every other game i've reinstalled is fine (if not running better post reinstall).
Anyone got suggestions on where to go next? It's literally just RoR2 with issues.
proper horizon
@unique mountain System file corruption usually points towards a severe hardware problem. Nonetheless, please see the pinned messages for a fix with your input latency, specifically:
First, try unplugging and then replugging your controller. If that does not fix it, look under Device manager and make sure there are no controllers. If you have VJOY installed, please uninstall it!
unique mountain
Controller? As in gamepad? I'm on mouse and keyboard.
The input latency is not the primary problem and I feel is a symptom of the poor performance, primary issue is sub 15fps regardless of settings
proper horizon
It could be any kind of controller/device causing weird lag. What are your rig's specs?
unique mountain
i5-4650k gtx 780ti
i want to reiterate that previous to reinstalling i have zero performance issues, and that i only have performance issues in this game only
I only have a keyboard and mouse plugged into this machine in it's entire lifetime
proper horizon
That may be, but other controllers might be installed as well. Please check it out.
unique mountain
its a clean install of windows as of 2 days ago, all i've done is plug in a keyboard and mouse and install steam
proper horizon
Disable v-sync in-game and outside of it and the framerate limiter. Update your drivers.
unique mountain
vsync is off in both driver and ingame, capped at 60fps which i do not get anywhere close to achiving, drivers are clean install most recent version (as i have just reinstalled windows 2 days ago)
proper horizon
No vjoy, right?
proper horizon
Well, then you got a real problem.
unique mountain
Just installed afterburner and its showing 100% GPU usage at 14fps
but it's barely pushing any power or temps, its almost like the game just reserves 100% processes and does nothing with it.
stepping down to 1080p keeps me at 100% usage but 20fps
proper horizon
Are you on a laptop?
unique mountain
with i5-4670k gtx 780ti? no bro
issues with my hardware would not explain why every other game i have has absolutely no issues
RoR does not exist in a vacuum, its not driver or hardware related, game is fukt
proper horizon
Except no one else reported that issue.
What other games do you run?
I think your rig is fucked plenty.

Alright, I got it.
Don't be such a negative Nancy.
Go into your nVidia control panel.
Make sure that your discrete graphics card is set to active for the game, not some integrated chipset.
Voilà.
unique mountain
am i being trolled?
proper horizon
You are being trolled by your system and don't seem to be receptive to assistance. Whatever, man. You'll figure it out.
unique mountain
How can i be using igpu for a single application when my monitor is patched into my gpu?
when the assistance is barely more than 'is it turned on?' i'll remain non-receptive.
no worries dude, thank you for trying, i'll keep looking for solutions.
proper horizon
It doesn't matter where it's patched in, but whatever. You keep playing RoR2 with your integrated chipset and/or shoddy hardware. What a waste of (our) time! What a repellent attitude/personality too! 
unique mountain
that's the 3rd time you've edited your comment bro
its 100% using the dedicate gpu
if you'd been paying attention previously, you would have seen that i am monitoring my GPU with afterburner and it's pushing it to 100% usage when in game

I have a similar problem as @thorn vigil, with the only difference that my crash is random but throws the same window error.

Is there a way to restore a lost profile? played in offline mode yesterday and today my profile seems to be gone i checked the steam folder
thorn vigil
@silent tusk I tried the C++ reinstall stuff, nothing had been fixed :x
fervent rampart
This seems like a unity issue, if there's a support page for unity you might want to try checking that out
gearbox will unfortunately just give you a boilerplate "reinstall drivers" answer
also googling helps
thorn vigil
@silent tusk cpu: amd fx 6300 tm and gpu: gtx 1050ti
silent tusk
Interesting
Hopefully devs are working on a fix as we speak
This seems like a more widespread issue than previously thought
fervent rampart
I honestly don’t know if this is a chiefly risk of rain issue because it’s the unity engine that’s throwing the error
Either they’re mismanaging the engine or the engine is acting up
silent tusk
yike
fervent rampart
the fact that this is also inconsistent (Some users don't experience this at all, like me) also plays a role
which suggests that there is something conflicting or incompatibility
toxic glacier
anyone know of why my game freezes a lot. it only freezes for like 3 seconds then im back. I can still hear slight game sounds but just freezes (getting output log rn)
well nvm i cant upload output log
proper horizon
Shoddy hardware is my guess (it's a recurring theme).
proper horizon
It seems there isn't but one kind of Unity crash, but at least two different ones each caused by different issues. It's still rather rare to occur, though. The C++ packages reinstalling is a good starting point, though, for anyone to try.
toxic glacier
do yall think that my cpu might be the issue for my constant freezing

my game shows unknown for all its bindings ingame even tho it shows the correct bindings in setting, the mouse sensitivity on the menu is funky but its fine ingame, and also the camera keepings panning downwards when im ingame even though i dont have a controller connected. does anyone know how to fix these?
proper horizon
@orchid flame Yes. First, try unplugging and then replugging your controller. If that does not fix it, look under Device manager and make sure there are no controllers. If you have VJOY installed, please uninstall it!
orchid flame
i uninstalled the vjoy drivers and now everything is working fine! thank you so much!

I'm having a problem where I get kicked out of every multiplayer game, always by stage 4 (sends me to the main menu). The thing that's odd about this is that I never get any error message like I used to, such as "server shut down," etc. Has anyone else had these problems, and if so, do you know how to fix it?
(If it's at all relevant, I'm running on a system with a ryzen 5 2600 and a gtx 1070ti)

@hollow lark I would hope so, but then again Ryzen has so far been much of a letdown gaming performance-wise.

They have like a 5% fps difference from intel. and a 15% increase in productivity?

What resolution and Target fps?
hollow lark
2560x1080 144fps or more.

I run a ryzen 5 2600 and a 1070ti on 2560x1440 with near-max settings at 144 fps, occasionally dipping down to the 70s and 80s by stage 5+. I'm pretty confident you should be able to run at 144 fps, at least for the first few levels or so.
I'll try running at max settings at your resolution later today, if that might help at all
https://pastebin.com/Gt7vKAQn <- here's the output log @fervent rampart
proper horizon
A desync issue followed by a closing down of the connection to the host, followed by leaving the lobby, followed by a shutdown of Steamworks altogether.
fervent rampart
The steamworks shutdown is normal for when the game exists
Exits*
Although yes this does appear to be desync, but the developers said they had fixed some of it. Concerningly, there is also a lot of nullreference exceptions
proper horizon
Who knows what happened to the host themselves.
fervent rampart
Faulty p2p connection. Client or host is having some issues
The nullreference exceptions should be looked at though, those should have been caught or not occurred at all
proper horizon
It is strange, also that it happens so much.
fervent rampart
If it was simply desync then you would just see those warnings
@fallen fable email that to hopoo and see what they have to say
proper horizon
before you do that make doubly sure that you have nor had no mods installed
fervent rampart
(I mean, I’d rather reach out directly to someone like ghor, but they’re busy.)
hollow lark
@fallen fable thanks so much.
