ive gotten ror2 to run well once in the last few weeks. it was after a windows update and playing one round of destiny 2. tried playing destiny 2 before playing ror2 again and didn't get good frames on either this time, so now i'm not even sure if it's a general computer issue despite my good specs or if its still ror2 specific

When I try to connect to multiplayer my character doesn't show up in lobby, and I can't ready up, but I can see every other player in lobby changing characters and everything. Can't even play multiplayer because of this bug

#

any fix for it?

serene jacinth
#

there is something that might help, but i don't think it helped anyone yet

#

search this discord for 'dns' and find a guide i sent here a while ago

#

try to clear dns cache and try again, hopefully it helps

restive garnet
#

will try thank you @serene jacinth

serene jacinth
#

@restive garnet hey, mind sharing with us if that was of any help? i'd love to know if that issue was fixed for at least someone

Hi, I have a problem with the game, my PC frequently goes to Blue Screen Of Death while in game and also my PC sometimes randomly restarts. It happens only in Risk Of Rain 2. What should I do? Thanks.

heavy comet
#

@somber peak Maybe your PC is overheating while playing RoR 2. Try lowering graphic settings.

stuck patrol
#

please help me someone

#

game keeps crashing

#

mid run pc temps are all good frame rate is fine

#

just gets a unity error

#

ive tried restarting re installing and checking integrity

#

nothing seems to help it

@pallid ibex ive got a direct 3d issue that no one else can fix and i cant find anything about it anywhere

jovial trail
#

can i change video and graphic settings in a document somewhere? trying to do it in game doesnt change anything. sorry if this has been asked before

patent kindle
#

check to make sure that direct 3d is installed correctly and/or troubleshoot it

#

try updating directX, or, try rolling drivers back
you need to make sure this isn't a user-side issue if you're going to ping hopoo lol

#

have you tried hardware acceleration?

#

make sure both your directx and video drivers are updated

pallid ibex
#

@stuck patrol can you play any other games? do you meet minimum specs? when it gets to directx level stuff that's things we never coded ourselves, so my suspicion is you may be unable to play other unity games

stuck patrol
#

okay i can play heaps of other games like skyrim se and dragons dogma

#

havent had any problems with crashign with either

#

what is another unity game i can try

#

and here is my most recent crash from 20 minutes ago

stuck patrol
#

when i follow the crash dump pathway i end up with either unity or output log as an option

and i dont have any files hidden

thankyou btw man hopefully i can get this fixed

that did not help

gonna try and delete unity crash whatever from risk of rain

#

another crash

#

22 minutes in multi with medium graphics

#

@pallid ibex you ever see something like this? everyone i have spoken too has a different explanation for the crash

#

this guy called yak thinks its my ram or even just my windows installation i reinstalled my steam today so i am willing to reinstall windows but im not sure if thats required

#

i have never heard of these issues so consistently its every run and it varies so much. Sometimes i can run for 40 minutes and then 20 minutes

What exactly are your specs?

Not to be rude dude but you gotta chill with spamming the tech reports. Not saying you shouldn't ask for help but stuff like literally just screaming for help in caps really doesnt do much and just fills the channel

hm...

yeah but the items at least

proper horizon
#

Just cheat them in, someone at reddit probably has ready-made save files with all the unlocks available as well.

#

I don't get how this pertains to tech support.

naive carbon
#

i lost the save file

#

just becasuse of that its a bug or something

proper horizon

You can edit any save file like it's a text document and cheat the unlocks back in.

You barely scratch the minimum specs so I don't find it that surprising, do you?

stuck patrol
#

me?

#

is that a joke or like?

#

i run it on ultra 60 fps

#

its unity thats crashing

proper horizon
#

It's meaningly if you can run the first few stages at 60FPS.

stuck patrol
proper horizon
#

You got an old AMD FX.

stuck patrol
#

i can run stage 7 primoridial will o wisp 200 percent attack speed

#

its fine the cpu might be a bit old but its risk of rain 2 not rust

proper horizon
#

Well, apparently not, if it's so unstable that it crashes.

#

No, that's not how it is. It is an extremely CPU-intensive game.

stuck patrol
#

listen i can run any other games fine its just this

proper horizon
#

Nah, I don't think so.

stuck patrol
#

ive played at lowest possible graphics and gotten less time compared to ultra

#

i can run skyrim se and dragons dogma max graphics 60 fps

proper horizon
#

lol

#

Yeah...

stuck patrol
#

i can run rust on simple fine

#

do you want me too prove it to you?

#

this is not a spec issue

proper horizon
#

You've got any even older, more irrelevant games to "prove" anything? It's pointless. You're barely scratching the minimum specs of RoR2. You can't expect solid performance out of a current-gen game out of a toaster. But I guess, you can.

stuck patrol
#

the only part of my pc that is even slightly old is my cpu

proper horizon
#

Are you for real...

stuck patrol
#

are you telling me the reason that risk of rain 2 has random unity crashes is soley because of my hardware

proper horizon
#

It's a contributing factor, for sure.

stuck patrol
#

whats a new game i could check my specs for

#

i could play destiny 2 on medium at 60 fps

#

fuck it i give up

#

risk of rain 2 can suck my nodes for the time being ill find something else to play regrettably

hi! I suicide myself at the obelisc twice with the artificier, but dont win the skin... can u help me?

sharp talon
#

hey guys i been playing this game for ages and today i just opened my game up and this came up

stuck patrol
#

@gritty badger was it on the monsoon difficulty?

serene jacinth
#

@sharp talon hey that definitely looks like a graphics card problem, have you experienced anything like that in other games?

sharp talon
#

nope

#

ive tried other games that are intense and there hasnt been any problems

#

ive tried changing the settings for the graphics and turning on bloom makes it go crazy

serene jacinth
#

does your card overheat often, perhaps?

sharp talon
#

nope

serene jacinth
#

hmm

sharp talon
#

its always average

serene jacinth
#

maybe it isn't that then, but that looks really disturbing

sharp talon
#

it is

#

do you want me to stream it and you can see for yourself?

serene jacinth
#

nah, it's fine

#

well, just to make sure, last question, how old is your graphics card?

#

if that isn't overheating, maybe its age?

sharp talon
#

its new

#

about a year old

serene jacinth
#

oh well, i'm out of ideas, you could check troubleshooting for unity bloom effects, maybe that can somehow help

sharp talon
#

alright ill see what i can do

#

it appears changing resolution worked but its crap

#

unity crash 9 minutes into run

#

load did not go over 30% for cpu and 60% for gpu

stuck patrol
#

another crash after switching sticks of ram

#

into different slots

ebon kraken
#

@stuck patrol new idea: remove one of the RAM sticks entirely and play. if it crashes, swap the stick.

#

if it's a problem with the RAM sticks themselves, then it's possible the problem only exists in one of them

#

(you shouldn't need more than 8gb for the game, even the recommended specs say 4gb)

#

you can also try using each RAM stick by itself in each of the four slots, so there's up to 8 different ways to try this

Hello ! I'm posting because I tried playing with my brother, we have similars rigs : Ryzen 7 3700x and a 1070 for him, same CPU but a 1080 for me. I have no performance problems, the game runs smoothly with ultra settings but my brother's game is unplayable after a while. Any idea why ? Thanks !

outer orbit
#

@stuck patrol if one of the sticks is bad, remove both and get new ones - using a single stick in today's motherboards will get you by, but there is a performance penalty.

#

@polar night background apps, driver differences, thermal issues

#

@stuck patrol i'd personally recommend a fresh windows install

stuck patrol
#

when u sau fresh what do you mean

#

i did a keep my files reset

outer orbit
#

i mean nuke windows entirely

#

take software out of the question

stuck patrol
#

allright ill wait for a crash

#

and do the one ram stick and then if that dosent work ill do the reset option where i destroy all my files correct?

outer orbit
#

create a new boot partition and load up a new copy of windows

#

then install steam/ror2 and if you still get crashes, you know it's a hardware issue

#

i can't read the dump file so i can't look at the stack trace

stuck patrol
#

idk how to do any of that

Hey guys. i have been playing with a friend right now and we just realized he does't have access to skill 2.0 and no "loadout" menu in choice character

you won't have loadout as a menu option until you complete one of the achievements to get an alternative skin/skill

#

@dapper pollen try to set nvidia settings from optimal to performance

#

should be under 3d settings, then power settings, don't have nvidia, can't check exactly myself

jaunty spruce
#

for me the biggest performance increase came from forcing real full screen, the game only lets you chose borderless full screen. To enable this right click the steam game, go to properties, click custom launch parameters and put: -window-mode exclusive

#

@dapper pollen

#

still goes down to 40-50fps in late game, better than the 10-20 i was getting

rest of the time, 100-200

Hey, I have encountered the "EARLY_ACCESS_DISCLAIMER" bug and managed to fix it. It seems that the problem spawns from what operating system you are using. If you were originally operating on windows 10 and ror cloud saves, you can not play on an older operating system like windows 8.1. I encountered this bug when i got a new laptop with windows 8.1 and the issue resolved it self when I installed windows 10 as my previous saves was made on the operating system of windows 10.

Hi, i 've been having some issues with the new maps where the game crashes when im about to enter one of the knew maps(Scorched Acres & Siren´s Call), it was ok, i was still able to play the game. But now it crashes at the start or when i start a new game. I dont know what to do to fix it and i've done most of the things in the Bug Repots Section of Discussions. I know it might be more of a hardware problem but still i want to find a solution that doesnt require spending money, at least not yet.

they will help with easier problems and will notify devs of problems they couldn't solve

Thank You @steady topaz

willow juniper

figured I'd ask. Any tips for better performance? I already neutered settings, Alt+Enter for proper Unity Fullscreen and set priority to High/Realtime in TM. Was just wondering if anyone had any strong tips for bumping frames, as my Afterburner readout on both my machines (i5-3570K OC 4.2, GTX 970 SC & i7-7700/GTX1060) is very messy with nowhere close to high usage for any of my components. Would appreciate it.

#

Also I tried to run the game at 1440p for an experiment and the max frame cap, on both my TV and my monitor (both 60hz) was 30. I then tried to change the game to 4K in the in-game video settings and it just straight up didn't work. lol

#

and FWIW, I know that future updates will continue to smooth out the game, as the Skills 2.0 update did boost my frames in heavy sections at about a 6FPS average. 14 to 22 frames with multiple magma worms on screen in Rallypoint is still far from ideal, though, obviously, as my GPU sat at 28% UTL and none of my CPU cores were working past 35%. js

steady topaz
#

@willow juniper
If anyone has had the same problem i have been having where the game is suddenly running on 10ish frames after the update regardless of high or low settings, i fixed this issue by going into the Nvidia control panel, going into manage 3D settings, then clicking on manage power settings, and switching it from optimal to Prefer high performance. I dont know why Risk of Rain is bottlenecking compared to how i could run more graphically intensive games like witcher 3 with no dip below 60FPS, but this has fixed my problem and the game has gone back to well over 120FPS.

willow juniper
#

oh yeah, for sure. one of the first things I did in global settings when I got both of my machines

steady topaz
#

I got no solutions for you then.

willow juniper
#

I'm very privy to these sorts of things. I was wondering if something like a rendering issue with a specific effect was screwing with the framerate, like in GTA where the Anisotropic Filtering setting has to match in NVCP and in game for smooth 60 FPS with no stuttering

#

PC gaming is often fickle like that. I'm almost 100% sure this is purely a CPU usage issue related to how difficult it is for small teams to optimize Unity on multi-core CPUs

#

as generally the major slowdown is not with graphically intensive effects but with hit/proc calculations in the background and perhaps enemy behavior

steady topaz
#

I was told by someone who actually competent that its certanly almost every time a cpu problem. I having none of that and know nothing that could help you sadly.

willow juniper
#

no problem. People with 400 dollar CPUs, like the 9700K, have told me they see negligible performance drops when overclocked to exorbitant clock speeds like 4.8 GHz

#

considering how this is not a resource-intensive game, and that I and 99% of others don't have 2000 dollars free for a top-flight build, that's not particularly helpful

#

oh well. here's to hoping the next update brings more improvements

steady topaz
#

Higly doubt it will do something about cpu related issues. As i was told unity is not well paraleled to spread load on whole cpu cores, it uses 1. And game runs better on better single core performance cpu's.
Its kinda engine issues so i doubt devs gonna switch from cu3 to this specific one. They never told they would. But they did told that game will be polished.

#

@willow juniper btw vsinc is off right?

willow juniper
#

no vsync is definitely on

#

unbearable stutter on both machines if turned off

#

smooth performance until under load, as it should be

#

I have tried both the in-game vsync and forcing through Control Panel

#

same result

#

I wonder if disabling Threaded Optimization would do anything

#

Geforce Experience is telling me I should run it at essentially 4K maxed out

#

lol

steady topaz
#

Well i recommend to turn that off. Tearing is not so detrimental compared to 22 fps to me.

willow juniper
#

no

#

it's not tearing. It stutters uncontrollably because the framerate is uncapped and both of my displays max out at 60hz

#

no VSync is an unplayable mess on this game, and I generally stick with VSync anyway for visual consistency

willow juniper
#

just played a round tracking performance with Afterburner. GPU and CPU usage crater when things get busy. About 8% GPU at times and between 12-24 fps

Hi I turn my refresh down to 40, but even after clicking apply, when i go back to the screen, it is back up at 60. Anything I can do to fix it?

turbid fog
#

@willow juniper
I don't know how tech savvy you are but just a few more things. Try updating your GPU drivers as well as your BIOS and Chipset.
With the hardware you specified above as well, I'd highly recommend sticking with 1080 to 1440 resolution, not 4k.
Also, I know you are getting crazy stutter, but if you do end up getting better frames at some point, turn off v-sync. Adds terrible input lag.
I have hardware on par with yours if not worse and I have no problems pushing 120fps. It has to be some odd driver or game engine incompatibility making your CPU and GPU throttle. It could also have to do with power states of your CPU.

#

@young sentinel
Try forcing a 40hz refresh through the GPU control panel. Not sure what your hardware is but it may be an option.

orchid flame
#

is there a way to fix my full screen?

willow juniper
#

Lel

#

Not only am I running at 1080p but the game will not physically let me change the resolution on either machine. It's comical

#

BIOS and Chipsets are 100% updated for both motherboards. Grpahics drivers are updated the day they come out. UBM has all components in both machines well above their average mark.

#

Not turning off vsync. Visual consistency is paramount. Sorry.

#

It does not add terrible input lag at 60 Hz. Lmao. It's roughly 8 ms on average on and off

willow juniper
#

According to people I've talked with knowledgeable of the situation, it's a classic Unity CPU throttle. Performance problems with this game reside all over the internet with a simple search.

I have both PCs set to Ultimate performance. I'm going to look into CPU power output, but as I've said before, this is really the only game I have issues with. I play PCars, Prey, Destiny 2, Left 4 Dead 2 & Forza Horizon 4 on the 1060 near maxed out at 1080p and Hot Pursuit at 4k60 maxed with zero issues. This is the only game right now giving me performance problems. Considering three people made the game, and with each update a slight performance boost occurs, that's not a surprise.

Hey, I just bought the game and I tried to play but my mouse seems to be '' fixed '' when in game. I tried the Hotas and vjoy fix but I have neither of these program installed on my pc.

I'm using a Corsair sabre and use Icue ( up to date ) if that can help.

it is fully functional in the menus tough

hot lodge
#

I don't mean to be that guy bringing up old topics, but is there a setting in the xml file to indicate I've already accepted the early access disclaimer?

#

I'm running the game through Proton on a Linux system, and the only way I've found to get past it is to open a VM and load the game inside of it or boot into a Windows partition and then copy the save file from them. And every update it appears to come back.

#

With the EARLY_ACCESS_DISCLAIMER string instead of listing the actual disclaimer.

Attempting to reinstall vcrun2015 via protontricks -c doesn't appear to work, nor does adding a registry key to force a time zone.

#

@willow juniper
That makes sense, I'm sorry you are having such trouble with it!
I'm used to the high-refresh rate so the v-sync thing is a big no no, hence my inclusion.

merry marlin
#

I am also having performance issues.
When in the menus, the game properly asks my GTX 970 for high clocks.
As soon as gameplay starts, the clocks are down. This is not a temperature issue, those are down from in the menu.

The game menu is uncapped and not CPU-bound.

You can't use at everyone, obviously... Are you and your friend on the same version, in addition are either of you running mods? If not try uninstalling and reinstalling. You could try hosting instead of your friend also. @next schooner

next schooner
#

I've tried hosting and I can pick a character but then neither can they and I had literally installed it before playing multiplayer

ocean ibex
#

Your both running the same version?

#

Also what happens if you just ready up and let the game start?

next schooner
#

Yeah we are running the same version and i cant ready up

raw wraith
#

As far as we know, we are the same version, he legit jusy did a fresh install like tonight, this is an odd bug I havent seen before

next schooner
#

It wont let me select ready

ocean ibex
#

Only 1 person needs to select ready up

raw wraith
#

It just kicks him, after about 20 seconds or so

#

before we can get into the game.

ocean ibex
#

Have you tried with someone else hosting?

next schooner
#

4 of us have tried hosting including myself

ocean ibex
#

109775240986149313 try this?

next schooner
#

Whats that?

ocean ibex
#

Clipboard lobby

#

Copy it then press join clipboard lobby

next schooner
#

okay that worked

ocean ibex
#

Oke just use a clipboard lobby

next schooner
#

So how do you do that?

ocean ibex
#

Then paste it and send to friends

next schooner
#

okay thanks man

ocean ibex
#

Np

next schooner
#

Okay we just tried and it's not working for my friends and I

ocean ibex
#

That means it an issue with one of your friends games

#

Since you could join mine no issue

#

Make sure they are on the same version as you

next schooner
#

But they can all play with each other but i cant play with them

raw wraith
#

Makes sense, however we can join each other fine, we all have the same Current Build

ocean ibex
#

Get them to check the game file integrety

#

Oh actually wait a sec

#

Dester ima give youa lobby code since that should let me see if its an issue with your game

raw wraith
#

ok

#

I'm verifying atm, will join when it's done

ocean ibex
#

109775240986157202

#

Alternatlly if you have 3 friends total I can make a game for you then make one of you host and leave if nothing else works

#

Oke new experiment time

raw wraith
#

109775240986159342

#

I think he's leaving for tonight, getting kinda late, we will try somne more stuff tomorrow

#

ty for the help though

#

oke, np

#

Game keeps crashing my PC on startup, when I get back into Steam the game has completely uninstalled itself. It's done this twice now

#

Temperatures are all in check and fine, also just dusted out my PC just in case

turbid fog
#

Do other games run ok? That is one intense bug though.

abstract ingot
#

It seems to be a problem with only steam games when it happens

#

and yeah I do run fairly intensive games off steam and dont have the problem

silk marlin
#

So a friend of mine has a problem (and he doesnt want to go here for support for some reason) but basically, all of us in our friend group can connect to each other, but he cannot connect to us, we can't connect to him. we can get into the multiplayer tab lobby, but the moment we choose to go into a private lobby or even just quickplay, whoever isn't hosting gets a softlock blackscreen and never loads. Any ideas?

#

And if theres multiple of us, he's the only one who doesnt load in

#

And if he's hosting, none of us load in

elder sky
#

@turbid fog unfortunately, i have and it's been radio silence.

turbid fog
#

Does he run other games ok?
Sounds like a networking problem oddly enough....any weird internet restrictions (aka a college dorm)

#

unable to connect with other player in multiplayer lobby. I get weird bug where neither models show up and neither of us can ready up. This problem started last night and is still there

#

I have absolutely no sound on my game... Its started crackling at first and now I have absolutely no sound in my game. I've tried restarting the game. I checked other games too. But it seems I only get no sound on RoR2.

Edit: I finally fixed it with Ear Trumpet. Seems like it was a Windows issue. Windows randomly decide to mute the game's audio channel.

distant parcel
#

Update audio drivers

daring sigil
#

Do I post here about server randomly shutting down cause it does it whenever me and my friends play and we dont know whats the cause ¯_(ツ)_/¯

turbid fog
#

I would verify your game installs. Also, try playing in unique pairs if you have more then two people in the group (you and friend 1, see if it crashes, then you and friend 2, see if it crashes)
Then you can isolate who is making it crash.

#

@kindred current
Just from following this discussion for a few days, you are not alone in your problem. Submit a support ticket so that they can gather more information on the bug.

serene jacinth
#

yeah, support won't help solve the issue but they will appreciate additional info

#

there is a guide i posted here that support suggested to me, i don't think it helped anyone yet, but could be worth trying

#

you can search for it by 'dns server' keywords

thorn spire
#

anyone here?

#

my client wont update on steam. I changed download regions, uninstalled the client, verified the game files. Nothing

serene jacinth
#

@gusty root should probably head to modding discord instead

#

@thorn spire if you're talking about latest update, it's for switch only, latest for pc is the skills 2.0 update

gusty root
#

oops, I thought I was in the modding discord. lol

#

They have very similar icons, after all

thorn spire
#

@serene jacinth I am talking about the skills 2.0 update

serene jacinth
#

check if auto updates are enabled and if the update is in queue

#

if it's enabled and no update is in queue, that's weird

#

have you tried reinstalling game instead of client?

#

pretty sure you can keep your saves if you're afraid of losing them

Hey guys, I'm having an issue. When I launch the game (from anywhere - desktop, steam, ror2 program folder) the game 'opens up' but stays as a small title bar that I can minimize, close, and move. There seems to be a sliver of the game underneath the title bar?
This happened after a friend and I had let a run sit at the lunar shop for several hours and his computer restarted. I exited the game, came back a couple hours later, and this happens. He can open his ror2 just fine, though.
Things I've tried -
Restarting comp (once)
Uninstalled/Reinstalled RoR2 (several times)
Deleting all RoR2 files I know and reinstalling
Verified game files in Steam (several times)
Drivers are up to date
And everything relevant in the pinned messages (Changed the userprofile.xml in notepad, disabled antivirus)

serene jacinth
#

have you tried removing your save file or config file?

#

i'm gussing the settings could be at fault and you didn't delete them while uninstalling the game

#

don't delete the file, just try removing it from the folder and see if that works

#

though i don't know exactly where you can find these files, so you'll need to do some research

hushed yacht
#

Yea, I tried deleting save data in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\X\632360\remote\UserProfiles, as well as both boot.config and the entire Config folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data. I tried both running w/o them and running after verifying the game on steam and either it did nothing or just wouldn't run w/o verifying.

serene jacinth
#

that's unfortunate, i have no more ideas how to help you then

hushed yacht
#

Thanks for trying.

Try Alt+ENTER while the window is active.

Well it's something xD at least it's not just the title bar. Thanks.

Hi.

#

whenever i try to play with a friend or go online, the game starts glitching out,
for example, i would show up on my friends screen as in his lobby but it wouldn't show on my screen

buoyant lotus
#

still no multiplayer fix?

undone lichen
#

Does anyone else have an issue with the game making their whole system unresponsive? Game freezes, apple music stops, mouse, keyboard, all non functioning. I have to hold the power button and reboot my pc to make it usable again

#

Its really annoying to have a 2.5+ hour run end because the game ruins your computer, not because you died

#

Any advice to fix this would be great :/

wanton junco
#

@undone lichen I was having that issue recently. For some odd reason when I pick Artificier and had like 5 items my game just died on me. The screen froze, mouse was next, keyboard too and finally I had no choice but to reboot my PC. Major difference it that it happens minutes from a online sessions. It happen twice in a row.

#

I haven't uninstall/reinstall the game yet.

#

Mine only happens late game and doesnt seem to have any way to ma it reproducible

But you might try googling your operating system and how to whitelist programs

orchid flame

Didn't work.

I haven't. But Gearbox didn't make this game, did they?

Oh they published it apparently, cool.

What are your PC's specs?

orchid flame
#

They're good enough. I've been able to play online before.

#

But now I can't.

orchid flame
#

I checked again, and I saw this. 3 instances of RoR2. Could this be what's causing my issues?

vestal berry
#

I could not tell you, honestly. I've never had any issues with RoR2/my firewall, I was just kind of spitballing ideas out there

turbid fog
#

I haven't heard of any firewall issues with this game. Make sure you verify game files, check drivers, and reinstall if you can.

hushed yacht
#

I'm still having my issue of a frozen screen on startup, with just a sliver of game but mostly black screen. Gearbox customer support's looking into it atm but no fix for now. If I figger it out I'll let people know just in case it happens to someone else.

west mist
#

hey I just got this 144hz monitor but the video settings keep reverting to 59hz when I leave the settings after accepting changes I've made

turbid fog
#

@west mist Be sure that windows is initially set at 144hz (the display properties). Also be sure that your driver's (GeForce Experience or AMD equivalent software) aren't pushing a 60hz profile on the game. I'm assuming you set the refresh to 120hz in the game too.

pulsar solar
#

friend of mine is having BSOD's while playing this game, i bought for him but we can't play together because it crashes his pc, any known cause/fix?

turbid fog
#

Is it only with ROR2? BSOD normally stems from weird driver incompatibility that is not limited to individual games. Can also come from outdated driver's, or badly seated hardware. All of which would make more games than just ROR2 make the PC BSOD.

help,my mods wont work,they normally worked. idk why

so i'm having some control issues

#

it seems like RoR2 is having my mouse act as both a mouse and a controller joystick

jaunty glen
#

@wanton junco when i open the game,it just wont load mods. Like the mods didnt even exist. It happened all of a sudden,i just added the wisp character mod.

Like,i even re-applied all the mods even the bepis mod helper and tristan

@jaunty glen did you figure it out?

i have a loader glitch that doesnt let me fire off my charged gauntlet and goes on cooldown instead. happens everytime i play loader but occurs about 80% of the time when i use the skill. really sucks cause i like the character but the core part of her loadout doesnt work for me and i dont know how to fix it

hallow peak
#

Hi, for some reason my computer crashes whenever i want to play multiplayer, any reason? I got all updated and checked.

turbid fog
#

@orchid flame
Look in your devices for any other controller devices and remove them. Also, unplug any controllers/joysticks ect.
@surreal oar, do any other characters exhibit similar weirdness with the same attack button? (Whatever you press for the punch)?
@hallow peak other than driver updates and such, I'm not sure what to suggest. If you have your cpu or gpu overclocked, I would suggest turning it down maybe? I was having problems crashing a month ago because my CPU clock was unstable.

surreal oar
#

@turbid fog only loader exhibits this wierd glitch and it's only charged gauntlet that does it, no other skill does. I've even tried rebinding the keys to something else and it still doesn't work

turbid fog
#

Hm, and it's not like you can cancel the punch with another button or anything. I'm not sure what to say other than redownload/verify game files and take a video and submit a bug report

hushed flower
#

I don't know if this has been happening to other people, but every so often when I start up a new match as loader my charged guantlet is being charged without me having pressed any buttons, as well there tab menu opened. Both are resolved after I press their regular keybind, but was wondering if other people experienced this and if there was a good to it I wasn't aware of

icy frigate
#

my friend is trying to get ds4 working with a controller, and cant get the sprint button to bind

turbid fog
#

@hushed flower I haven't experienced this before. Is it only upok the start of the new match?

@icy frigate I haven't used DS4 is quite a while, but is it possible to bind your controllers buttons to keyboard keys with the program? I'm not sure how ROR2 treats controllers vs. keyboards and such. Or are you just trying to straight emulate an Xbox controller?

hushed flower
#

Yeah only at the start of a match, out of the pod

turbid fog
#

Hm, just submit a bug report. If it doesn't effect the rest of your gameplay you're lucky! Haha

Alright ty for letting me know!

@kind warren
What have you tried so far to fix? The normal avldvice is verify/reinstall game files. Update drivers. If that doesn't work submit a bug report. Maybe someone else has a work-around for you
@tight fable
As the game starts, try unplugging your other USB devices (i.e. your mouse) and see if that helps. Also, I see that you are using some type of controller program down on your task bar? Is that DS4? Be sure keybinds are correct.

Yo, I was just trying to play the game together with my friend, and that was the fisrt time both of us trying to play onlne mode. I have no ideas, but when it seems like we just cannot create a room and both of us being able to pick the character, would it be possible for you to help us?

turbid fog
#

@half carbon
Go into your device manager and unadd any controller devices you have added
Unplug any other controller devices too

@somber grove
I would recommend as always to verify/reinstall the game files and update drivers

candid sequoia
#

i was trying to do the achievements but as i was talking about it he realized he didnt have the tab

#

he also managed to summon 12 minions at once but didnt get the engi achievement

turbid fog
#

@candid sequoia the loadout tab does not show until one of the challenges has been done on any of the characters. Not sure why the game didn't recognize the 12 minions.

#

Once it is done on one challenge, the loadout tab shows up for all characters

candid sequoia
#

he also completed the loader challenge

turbid fog
#

Hmm that is curious

candid sequoia
#

@merry obsidian is the guy, he said it recognized that challenge but didnt give him the ablity to equip it

turbid fog
#

I remember the name. So in game it recognized it but afterwards didn't give the award/ability? Hmmm did his game crash later on before the run was done? I'm not sure how the game handles achievements after a crash

merry obsidian
#

I did not crash

#

let me see if I can try getting the challenge again

turbid fog
#

That's be awesome, or try for another? Also, on loader, do you have the tab since youve unlocked her abilities?

merry obsidian
#

no

turbid fog
#

Hm. Off of the main menu, you can check on the characters achievements separate from the character selection. Do the achievements shown as unlocked in there?

merry obsidian
#

ok , I checked it and it's saying that I do not have the challenge done even thow it sed I got the challenge done in game.

turbid fog
#

So its not recording it even though you have gotten it. I would submit a bug report then do the verify games files/reinstall and try for the achievement again. Sorry it's not working properly.

merry obsidian
#

thank u for helping

mystic pond
#

I'm crashing pretty consistently about 10 - 15 after starting the game. I've always had problems with the game crashing, but usually it'll run for 2 - 3 hours before doing so. Not sure what is causing the increased crash rate or the crashing in the first place, does using dual-monitors cause this problem?

stuck patrol
#

hello

#

my computer lokey kinda blue screening doe

turbid fog
#

@vapid quest
Try contacting the mod creator
@mystic pond
Have you overclocked your cpu or ram recently? When I upped my XMP profile for my ram recently I was consistently crashing. When I backed it down it stopped crashing.

@stuck patrol
Only on ROR2?

mystic pond
#

Nope, I've never overclocked.

#

Does unity not like AMD driver? It's been a problem with other games

#

drivers*

turbid fog
#

I personally haven't had a problem? (Both AMD CPU and GPU) Since the game hasn't had an update, I'm assuming it could be a GPU driver update? Do you have one of the new 5700 cards?

mystic pond
#

I've got a Radeon RX 480

#

Drivers are up to date

turbid fog
#

Try rolling them back one. Also make sure your chipset drivers are up to date along with bios (insert "update bios at your own risk disclaimer here")

mystic pond
#

I'll try that

#

But you've never had problems with crashing ever?

turbid fog
#

I had a problem when I pushed my ddr4 3000 ram to ddr4 3000 with the XMP profile. I backed it down to 2933 and I've been sitting pretty. I also backed down an overclock to not be so aggressive.

#

Other than that no. Ironically I actually have crashed less with multiplayer than with single

mystic pond
#

That's kinda concerning, even months ago RoR2 would crash every once and a while, just not this frequently

#

I've never crashed with multiplayer either

turbid fog
#

Yeah. Is this your first time playing after the skills 2.0 update?

mystic pond
#

Nah, I've probably played 50 hour or so in the past 3 weeks.

turbid fog
#

damn and it only started within the last weekish?

mystic pond
#

Yeah

#

Honestly I think that just cements the driver role back, as that would've been the most recent change

turbid fog
#

Other than driver updates or weird devices (USB stuff) I can't think of anything that would crash it.
Try the driver role back and tell me what you get. If it works, go ahead and do the chipset + bios. Should help performance anywho a little

#

*chipset + bios update

mystic pond
#

Sure thing

turbid fog
#

You could also try going ahead and trying the next optional AMD driver, but the roll back is a safer bet.

mystic pond
#

It's still weird though, I usually run the game with max setting with sparse crashing or performance drop

turbid fog
#

Unity does what Unity pleases haha
I've had my FPS drop to 15 because of how many enemies there are at stage 36 and the game keeps chugging so even with Max performance, it's got to be a driver/unity failure rather than the game just running hard.

vapid quest
#

@turbid fog idk if this has anything to do with it but I was using the thiccify mod to test because I wanted to see if mods would work, haven't tried other mods yet (don't ask why I used that mod)

@random goblet you can't see the unlocks on the character select screen or the main menu lookup?

serene jacinth
#

if it's abilities that require killing bosses quickly then i'm pretty sure these are bugged, i've seen people report about these earlier

random goblet
#

I was able to use the abilities after the unlock then the next day they were back to being locked

serene jacinth
#

do you have the challenges completed for these abilities?

#

or are they locked too?

random goblet
#

those are locked to

turbid fog
#

There was a fellow in here about 5 days ago with the same problem. I would maybe recommend making a copy of your save files after every unlock? If they get messed up then just put in the backup
Also, submit a bug report. The more reports the better

high cypress
#

Anyone having issues with refresh rate? I have it set to 144hz and i have a 144hz monitor, yet the game runs as if it's really set on something lower. It's not an fps issue (not that kind of rough, and fps stays high) but it seems more to me like it isn't running as "buttery smooth" as it should be. I didn't always have issues with this, but now I do and don't know how I could get rid of it.

south radish
#

If ur 144hz works on other games then idek lul

turbid fog
#

@high cypress
I thought ROR2 only went up to 120hz?

#

Also try some lower graphics settings and report back. When I hear of game stuttering and not smooth it either is: inconsistent framerate ie screen tearing, or it is your cpu throttling and creating frame dips.
Also, are you running a freesync or gsync setup?
Also update drivers etc. etc. Even on your chipset and bios too

merry osprey
#

Was the unity crash ever fixed?>

high cypress
#

Whenever I try to change what refresh rate I’m using in the in game setting it’s stuck on 144hz. After setting it lower and then clicking apply, I exit out of the settings and go back and it’s magically back to 144hz. Also, im not running a gsync setup. All of my drivers are up to date but I’ll check out my bios and lower some settings and report back.

high cypress
#

updated my bios. booted up the game, and its back to normal! didn't have to change any setting either, thank you so much @turbid fog a true lifesaver

turbid fog
#

@high cypress Awesome! I'm happy to help :)
Based on your cpu, your bios probably didn't know how to properly utilize it, thus creating some inconsistency and studder. Happy it's fixed.

How come when I beat Monsoon with Engineer, there isn't the chance for me to have the Engineer skin already unlocked once it comes out?

turbid fog
#

I would recommend posting that in the Game-Questions chat. That is more of a gameplay question then a tech-support question.
I'm assuming you're on console waiting for the skill 2.0 update?

orchid flame
#

Been trying to play the game but when i launch it , it doesn't allow me to click continue

#

there is no music no nothing

turbid fog
#

mine doesn't let me click it for a few seconds.
have you ever been able to get past that screen?

orchid flame
#

no

#

it stays like this forever

#

maybe it's a mod thing ?

turbid fog
#

do you have mods installed?

orchid flame
#

yeah

turbid fog
#

uninstall them and try again

orchid flame
#

yup it's a mod problem , moved the mod folder and it worked

gonna fix them now thanks

The skills 2.0 update was supposed to come out today for consoles, right?

#

Because I checked for an update on ps4 and nothing popped up

#

How can I make mods work in multiplayer?

#

like quick start is disabled because of mods..

turbid fog

@meager canopy
has this happened consistently since you began playing or only recently?

@south swan @timber spire
Where was it announced it was today? Also, based on time zones it is quite a bit earlier haha. I don't know where Hopoo or the team is from but its 11am in the US East and 8am on the west coast

@gritty axle
I would suggest heading over to the ROR2 Mod discord and asking the same question. I have no experience with mods. Go to thunderstore.io and join the discord from there

It's been pretty consistent over the past few months

So no one can tell me why the game wont work?

turbid fog
#

This is a communal "hey, this is my problem, anybody else in the community have the same issue?"
It is not an official support section. I would suggest putting in a bug report.
Update drivers, bios and chipset included and then verify game files as see if that helps at all. If it's only been recently, maybe roll back some drivers.

Hey, I am wondering how to install mods, I got the wiki page which pointed me towards R2API and BepInExPack and I have those installed, now I am wondering how to install other mods and perhaps the mod manager, is there any good tutorials for this? I have googled for it but all I could find are year old tutorials, are those still relevant?

#

ah I seem to have found the mod manager, that's all I really needed it seems, guess I should do more googling before asking 😂

@pearl crystal I PM'd you an invite to the ROR2 mod discord. People will be able to help you there 🙂

balmy marsh
#

Is there a way to wipe the controller binds? I have a lot of flight sim peripherals but I only play ROR2 with M+KB and for some reason the game automatically bound a lot of the controller controls to my various axis and buttons which are often not perfectly centered/zeroed (My throttle and rudder pedals are especially bad).

thorny mesa
#

The game suddenly isn't recognizing my profile anymore. If I install it on my SSD, it tries to create a user profile on my HDD, and won't read the other drive. But it never did this before. Even copy/pasting the profile doesn't work, nor does changing the install directory from my SSD to my HDD. Are my 120 hours just dead now? I really don't want to start from scratch.

I don't know what it is, but ever since burning acres my GPU has been crashing at about the 20 minute mark from overdraft. For reference, prior to Burning acres I could go up to 80 minutes before that happens

Feels like its necessary for me to be at 1/16 texture size now instead of the 1/2 I was comfortably at before.

@balmy marsh
If you unplug your other peripherals when you play, shouldn't the game recognize the odd binds?

@thorny mesa
I have heard of people's profiles getting corrupted/deaded. I would save a backup now and look for some tutorial on how to restore a profile. If it doesn't work, your save files is probably dead. In the future, maybe take manual saves once and a while.

@spiral spoke
It is an intense map. When I was overclocked I had crashing around the 20 minute mark too. I lowered my overclock and did a bios/chipset/video driver update and was good to go

@steady tundra I haven't seen any specific fixes. Update drivers/chipset/bios, verify game files and see if it helps.

spiral spoke
#

Okay sure, but it's not specifically burning acres doing it. It's the game as a whole so I assume an asset used frequently had been adjusted and made more intensive.

#

I'm also driver updated and not OC'd

balmy marsh
#

I'm trying to figure out a way around my issue without having to unplug my peripherals whenever I want to play.

#

It used to be tolerable and only caused a slight movement that was hardly noticeable, but now some control is just activating and leaving the info screen up, so the game is literally un-playable for me if I have my stuff plugged in.

turbid fog
#

It could be some of the particle effects on the map? I don't know if they are used anywhere else @spiral spoke

Hmm. I don't know of a way to lock in a binding type. Maybe is some config file you could force it? Or disable the other peripherals through device administrator?. If the game recognizes any other control peripheral than it will use that setup and unplugging is a hassle. Do other games get affected like this? @balmy marsh

balmy marsh
#

Most other games either let you un-bind or delete controls (I still don't know why I can't do this in ROR2) or you can dig through an INI file or something and delete the controls there (I had to do that for ACIV and a couple other games)

#

ROR2 is the only one that's actually given me a lot of trouble

#

Which is why I don't want to deal with unplugging all of my stuff only for it

#

It's possible there is some control file for ROR and I just haven't found it yet, but I have no clue where it is.

spiral spoke
#

Yeah the theory is it has to be very common of an asset if it reduced me down to such a low timer allotance. My biggest theory right now, is the flame particles. Like those on the imps. Most of the time I crashed, I had a lot of imps on screen. Its either that or particles in general.

thorny mesa
#

@turbid fog I actually managed to fix it. I just copied over the actual contents of the profile file to a new one that I made, and everything worked out. I still don't know why it wouldn't recognize my SDD after having done so before, though. Might be something on Steam's end too. Thanks for the response.

turbid fog
#

@balmy marsh I know what you mean now. If I was at my PC I would totally start looking but I will not be available to do it for a while. I would suggest posting in the feedback section and maybe submit a bug report. Other than that, it's pretty much a fundamental feature that can't be "fixed" yanno? Unless hoppo decides to add it.

@spiral spoke ahhh that makes sense. There are a few graphics sections regarding flames and particles. Off the top of my head LOD lighting comes to mind.

@thorny mesa That's great! I'm not sure why. Something having to do with game being installed in one place, then another, but internally it is only pointed to the original for saves perhaps

balmy marsh
#

Good news I just figured out what's causing the info screen issue, bad news is that if I touch the control at all while the game is running then I can't turn off the info screen

#

It's the slider on my X-52's throttle for some reason

spiral spoke
#

Hm. I'll have to troubleshoot it next patch I guess.

turbid fog
#

@balmy marsh In my brain I was like "something has to be activated for it to switch control schemes" so that's good! Just don't hit your throttle I guess? Maybe harder than I'm making it sounds if it's mounted on your desk.

@spiral spoke play with the graphics settings regarding light/shadows and see if anything turned down will help. I would suggest turning everything to low and then turn up one setting at a time to see what is causing the crash

spiral spoke
#

Well sure, that'd normally be a ideal method but considering the crash is inconsistent and takes anywhere between 10 to 40 minutes to happen with no idea what the trigger could be for certain its really hard to pin down

balmy marsh
#

The throttle is easy to avoid, but my big issue is with my rudder pedals since I rest my feet on the toe brakes, and that just adds a constant input

@karmic urchin
Update all drivers, chipset and bios and verify game trials and try again

@bronze lily
I have heard of this happening but I haven't seen a fix. You may be able to recreate your file if you edit the file. I'm not sure though.

I would backup save files frequently.

vsync actually

modern inlet

120 minimum not maximum :p

turbid fog

@modern inlet
Shadow sharpness and some of the lighting stuff.
Best way to do this type of thing is to experiment as well. Helps grow your internal knowlegde
I wouldn't use vsync ever just because I hate mouse lag and it does this to eliminate visual stuttering.

Update drivers, chipset, bios and verify game files then try again

Me and my friend are trying to play together, but he cannot host or join any games. When he hosts and i join, i cannot select my character, nor can i ready up, and then i get kicked back to main menu after around 30-40 seconds. When i host he has the same issue. He cannot connect to quickplay at all, but i can. Is there a known fix to this issue?

We have tried:
-Verifying files
-restarting comp
-port forwarding
-checking firewall

lusty grove
#

So I’ve been interested in this game for a while, and the only thing holding me back is my GPU, which doesn’t meet the minimum requirements (Intel Iris Plus G7). I’m a bit conflicted since I’ve seen videos of people running the game with older iGPUs at ~30 FPS. I would like to know how well a low end GPU holds up during graphically intense moments like boss fights. (Since it’s an iGPU the CPU model probably matters: mine is i7-1056G7 @1.3-3.9 GHZ

digital gust
#

@lusty grove i have a pretty old graphics card and i get pretty good frames, as long as you dont care about actual beauty of the game and turn everything off or to very low then you are good and can withstand most things, although later in the game at 45-60 minutes you will receive some frame drops but it wasnt too bad for me. Hope this helps.

nope doesnt work

#

i window downed it into the task bar and then back up, still a broken titlebar

nope

i also tried alt+enter but i just get this thin band of window

#

theres absolutely nothing on google about this issue

#

risk of rain keeps changing this in my config.cfg files

#

is that normal or a new bug?

tawdry swallow
#

is window_mode set to Fullscreen?

lost roost
#

tried changing it to Fullscreen

#

its still windowed

#

resolution 144x1x144;
is this a bug? why is there 3 numbers?

tawdry swallow
#

try setting it to fullscreen and setting the resolution to your native resolution and monitor refresh rate then setting the file to read only

#

the third number is hz

#

60, 120, 144 hz etc

#

if you had a 1080p monitor that ran at 60hz it'd be 1920x1080x60

#

also make sure nothing is in the launch options on steam

lost roost
#

oh making it read only fixed it

#

i have no idea why risk of rain keeps trying to corrupt the file but thanks

tawdry swallow
#

Do note it wont remember any graphical setting you adjust while in game, you'll need to set the file off read only and edit them in and set it back

lost roost
#

why do i have 2 profiles? one says
CyanideByte 24:50
the other says
CyanideByte 1:14

#

do they mean something not sure which one im supposed to pick

tawdry swallow

pick the one with more time, you may have made a new profile at some point and forgot or something

lost roost
#

oh ok thanks

@stark marsh
Her laptop probably started using the internal GPU rather than the deidcated. Did she do a driver update recently?

@neon heron
Try updating all drivers including chipset+ bios
Also, ROR2 does not require any port forwarding or firewall allowances unless you purposely have locked down your network more. By default, it shouldn't need anything

@lusty grove
Past stage 20 and up when the game starts spawning in bosses instead of regular enemies....it doesnt matter what hardware you have. It WILL drop to 15 fps haha
But really, just manage your graphics settings and no vsync and you should be good

Also, I'll be away for about a week so have fun friends.

lusty grove

Thank you @turbid fog and @digital gust

Thanks @waxen badge and @turbid fog . She felt really dumb after I told her to update her graphics card drivers and figured out she had her monitor plugged into her motherboard. That was the issue lol

help my save file was corrupted after i tried giving myself all the items because my friend told me how to how do i get it back or restore the unlocks in a different profile?

calm lotus
#

you just edited it wrong, you can follow instructions on how to properly edit it in a new file and you'll be fine

#

its hard to say what you corrupted on the first edit, so blobshrug

#

whenever you edit files like that, make sure you create a backup of the original

#

if I had to guess, I'd assume you simply pasted in the achievement text wrong, so maybe try copying that entire achievement list from your friend and making sure the formatting is correct

My friend was able to play the game normally up till this update, now their controls are unbound from the keyboard and their mouse is spinning.

All their keybinds are normal in settings, but their game looks like this:

@tropic swift does your friend plays on a controller or controller program?

tropic swift
#

No

#

They did in the past, but stopped all of their controller drivers and this was still a problem.

#

@tropic swift have your friend wipe all the game files manually and verify the cache

tropic swift
#

They've already validated the game through steam

torn basin
#

Game is completely broken for me since the update. Every hotkey shows up as "unknown" and my cursor moves to the ground on its own. I think the game is trying really hard to believe that it's being used with a controller, even though I don't even have a controller. Confusion.

#

I can't possibly be the only one, am I? ._. I was really excited about the update so I hope there's a way to fix this
(Edit: Uninstalling vjoy fixed it, I'm still confused as to why a program could affect a game without even running, and not too excited about having to reinstall and uninstall it constantly, but at least the problem is fixed!)

Risk of rain 2 seems to eat up a lot of resources since the last update (The Hidden Realms Update). GPU and CPU temps are going much higher than they used to before. Am I the only one who noticed this?

rancid kraken

Do you know why mouse acceleration seems to be turned on in-game? And is there any way to turn it off? It is unbearable how fast it is haha

patent python
#

sry for dual monitor

#

my cursor shows up over games

#

it works when i uninstall mods, are mods out of date for now?

bright obsidian
#

@torn basin afaik vjoy installs some drivers such that it's always on, just usually not used, (especially since vjoy basically provides a puppet controller that it doesnt influence on its own).

@rancid kraken as far as I know ror2 doesn't have any mouse acceleration, I just tested ingame and there isn't any. It sounds like you're talking about a high sensitivity instead, which can be adjusted.

rancid kraken
#

I'll record a quick vid to show what I mean and post it here, gimme a sec

bright obsidian
#

mods are always out of date after an update,,, iirc you need to wait until a new bepinex version is released, then whether old mods are compatible depends on whether the part of the code they modify was changed in the update.

patent python
#

ahh ok, ty

#

sucks because moding corrupted my everything unlocked profile so i got nothing, i depend on that mod now

bright obsidian
#

lmfao never seen that before

#

it seems to think you have a controller in use (?) not 100% but based on the crosshair

rancid kraken
#

I'm not sure, I last used my controller a couple days ago. In #ror2-bug-reports-pc Roni said that my buttons coming up as "Unknown" are caused usually from a controller being plugged in. I might just have to restart my comp, cuz it probably still thinks it's plugged in

bright obsidian
#

might also be something to do with steam controller settings, i dont know.. all I know is that's not what mouse acceleration typically means, but I can't think of a better term to describe that behaviour

patent python
#

did yup put look speed to 0? @rancid kraken

#

try that?

bright obsidian
#

he tried that stuff, but it wouldn't matter because it happens in menus too

rancid kraken
#

No, lemme try it real quick

bright obsidian
#

oh nvm i guess, i thought u said u had tried it in the video

patent python
#

we can try

#

that is so fast tho

bright obsidian
#

I don't use a controller so I can't be 100% sure but I'm pretty sure the pointer with the circle is shown when a controller is in use so I think it is getting your mouse movements as a control stick input and accelerating based on how long you are 'holding' that input (fairly typical)

rancid kraken
#

Changing the look sensitivity didn't change the speed of it. Also, Funnynin what I mean by Mouse Acceleration is, in some games, if you turn it on, it increases your mouse speed over time. So like, if you do slow movements without going far, the mouse will be slow, while if you jolt the mouse from one screen to the other, it'll increase the speed really high since you're moving it further

#

I just checked in the controller tab just in-case, and it does label all of the button maps as "Unknown" so, it does seem to think I'm using a controller which is hella weird

patent python
#

iths this setting that enables it for windows

rancid kraken
#

I turned down all of those meters to test if that helped, and it didn't

#

Thing is, it works totally fine outside of RoR, normal mouse speed and everything. But inside RoR, it gets amped hardcore

patent python
#

yahthats so wierd

#

reinstall?

#

bakc up your game files if you like

rancid kraken
#

Nah, I probably wouldn't need to do that, I probs just need to restart my comp

#

It's only in the menus that it gets accelerated

patent python
#

yah try that first wth

rancid kraken
#

Actually in-game, it works totally fine and normal

patent python
#

ingame its fine?

rancid kraken
#

Yeah

patent python
#

reeestart

rancid kraken
#

Yeah, I'll be doing that after this run is over

patent python
#

lol

cloud lotus
#

has anyone tried hosting a server?

bright obsidian
#

typically, mouse acceleration means that the faster you move your mouse, the more it moves per distance (ie the higher the sensitivity), so if you move your (physical) mouse the same distance at different speeds, the faster speeds will move the pointer (on the screen) more, even though the distance physically travelled is the same.

I have never seen or heard the term mouse acceleration be used to describe your situation, although I know it's something commonly done with controllers, and I'm also pretty sure the game is under the impression you're using a controller.

#

((as an aside, mouse acceleration is enabled by default under the name "enhance pointer precision" in windows; this is probably why cock maw told you to disable it, even though it appears to be totally unrelated to your situation))

rancid kraken
#

Ooooh, okay. Thank you for the clarification. I'm restarting my comp now in hopes that doing so will solve the problem. I'll reply back when I figure out if it did or not

Update: I restarted my computer and opened RoR, it was still happening.

I then removed my Xbox controller as a device then restarted the game and it is still happening.

I plugged in my controller again, my computer recognized it and set it up to be used, then I restarted the game again and it's still happening

patent python
#

@solar kelp to works, try harder

#

you probably missed a < or > somwhere or pasted somthing in the wrong spot. you have to be careful , one mistake will corrupt the whole file. to curcumvent this you can save a coppy before you go to town and if the new one is corupted replace with the old one. (im not gonna spell check this)

#

Friend had his save deleted after changing his OS. Is there any way to recover his save at all?

tired herald
#

@rare iron I suggest looking in the game files for that

#

It's under userdata

#

If he can't recover it then he could probably find a 100% completion file online and download that

Is their a way to keep the cursor in the game, it's showing up on both my monitors even though the game is only on one screen. Also when I start I am stuck staring at the sky I cannot seem to view level I would just snap back to looking straight up. Just got the game on steam

#

Found the problem, unplug your joystick and throttle they interfere with the game.

#

For some reason it also causes the ghost cursor on the secound monitor

@chilly socket do you have mods on? because if you do, then you will not be able to get past that screen

Computer seems to keep crashing when I play. It's relatively inconsistent so I can get some whole runs in and then I'm just in the main menu and it'll just die. It's not just the game, my computer just outright shuts off completely. Relatively new issue and it's only happened when I had the game open

#

I've checked and it's not overheating for a forced shutdown, it just all of a sudden stops receiving power and shuts off

chilly socket
#

i dont recall downloading mods but it has been a while since i played if i did do you know any way to get rid of them

@chilly socket go into your risk of rain files and then rename the winhttp.dll file to (winhttp.dll

I dont know if this belongs in tech support, but i shared my account with someone living with me and he loved ror2, the downside is that he hated farming lunar coins, and there was an exploit or something a while back allowing him to get 999k lunar coins

#

Now the thing is that he moved out and i feel like my game is filthy, is there any way to get rid of my lunar coins?

Howdy all, setting up a Dedicated Server on an edition of Windows Server 2012 R2 is giving me issues. It seems like the launcher is hanging after a certain point, and there are a lot of errors with shaders and what not. The dedicated server is not listening on any ports either, which I have been testing on Server and Desktop versions of Windows. Looking for a discussion:

  1. Am I missing pre-requisite drivers for the game?
  2. Anyone else get this all up and running? What's the console look like when the game is fully up?
  3. Is this not even worth being set up on a Server version of Windows? Should I just go desktop?
#

I know that was a big wall of text but hopefully someone else has any insight

Playing on PS4. So if the “host” intentionally disconnects, it just kicks everyone back to the main menu? That makes the matchmaking essentially useless, seeing as an hour long run can abruptly end with nothing to be done about it.

#

So I've been playing with my brother, and we constantly are getting kicked out of our game 30 min into it for no reason. Both of our screens go black, and the main menu music starts playing. The only way we are able to do anything is hit esc where the menu pops up, as if you are still in-game. We hit return to main menu and lose all of our progress. Is there a way to fix this from constantly happening as we are playing?

I’m playing myself calmly for about 4 hours. AS Suddenly, the game just crashes. Apparently I'm somewhere, I overflowed some variable. Now I’m very upset that I can’t see the statistics. How about making a game story? So that even in such cases, you can see the previous races.

@night yarrow I had a little success at hosting a dedicated server on windows server 2019. I removed the "exec server" command and it runs. Unfortunately my server will not list in the master server list. But myself and friends who are remote can connect to it using connect"XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX". When the exec server command was left in it would just hang and have tons of the error pictured here.

#

@night yarrow this is the error picture not the first one. The first picture is when the server is running fine but not showing up on the master server list.

#

@night yarrow

Here is my server.cfg file contents. That work seems to work except the master server list

remove_all_local_users;

sv_maxplayers 4; // The maximum number of players.
steam_server_heartbeat_enabled 1; // Set to 0 to not advertise to the master server.
sv_hostname "Colours ROR2 Dedicated Server"; // The name that will appear in the server browser.
sv_port 27015; // The port that the server will bind to. You cannot have multiple server instances with overlapping ports.
steam_server_query_port 27016;
steam_server_steam_port 0;
sv_password ""; // The password someone must provide to join this server. Leave empty if none. This is obviously not encrypted so don't use anything sensitive.
host 1;

#

@night yarrow figured it out. Install the steam client and login to your account. I did that and it worked first go using the default server_config.cfg (change as you need to)

Hey, my friend cannot hear music in the game. However, if he goes into the prismatic trial menu, music starts back up, but when he starts any sort of game, its silent. We can still hear sounds, but we cannot hear music. Anyone else have this sort of problem and know a fix? We have already tried reinstalling it and restarting it. We also tried fidgeting around with the settings to no avail.

Hey, i'm getting the Early Access Disclaimer bug, i did the save replacement, and restarting my pc, yet it still doesn't work, and i have installed and reinstalled VCRedist, for an odd reason, the game works fine in administrator mode, though if i open in administrator mode, it's in offline mode, what should i do?

night yarrow
#

@unborn scarab Wow I really appreciate you looking into all this! I'm on a Windows 2012 R2 instance now trying to get my hands on a 2019 from my university or something. Will run through steam install and stuff first and see if I can get things up and running.

#

I'll update everyone here once I get it going and so we can have a bit more info on the dedicated server stuff maybe in the FAQ?

unborn scarab
#

@night yarrow No worries, it was bugging me anyway. It should work on windows server 2012 R2. I assume you've allowed the exe file through the firewall and your router is configured correctly. make sure the only files in the config folder are config.cfg and server_startup.cfg and you should be golden. If the server starts up properly it will show your IP address at the bottom of the cmd prompt window. Good luck. Also you can edit the server_startup.cfg file to your liking don't remove any lines. I just changed the server name and password. Everything else was the same.

night yarrow
#

I'll keep at it, network is fine and for troubleshooting you gotta disable that firewall 🙂 obviously that wont stay off in prod.. right? right?

unborn scarab
#

correct. I added a rule in my server firewall to allow inbound connections to "Risk of Rain 2.exe", though for more security though you could just allow those ports (27015 and 27016 by default) aslong as the inbuilt windows server firewall isn't gimping the connection.

Hey Guys! With some help of @unborn scarab I've been able to get a server set up on Windows Server 2012. This I'm sure will apply at least partially for 2016 or 2019 server versions as well, so I figured I would post this here:

Step 1: Sign into Steam Account
Step 2: Installed the RoR2 Game Client like normal.  Launched it once to install Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes
  OPTIONAL: Just install the MS Visual C++ Runtimes from (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads) without needing the game file
Step 3: Confirmed the following existed in the /Config/ directory: config.cfg, server_startup.cfg?
Step 4: Edited the config files to be in line with what Colours posted earlier, will include full paste after this message.
Step 5: Allowed ports (UDP) and executable through firewall.
Step 6: Confirmed ports opened correctly with 'netstat -a' from the Windows Command Line
#

Potential Issues Ran Into:
*Shader Errors/Warnings: I Ignored these as obviously my server doesn't have the GPU, but rendering will be done client-side
*Could not load config /Config/XXX.cfg: Ensure all files are loacted in the Config directory of the server (C:%STEAMCMD_DIRECTORY%\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2 Dedicated Server\Risk of Rain 2_Data\Config). Seems the server still runs and works without 'autoexec.cfg'.
*NullReferenceException/DllNotFoundException/BufferOverflow: Ensure that you have logged in to the steam client once. If errorss continue, download the original Risk of Rain 2 client. If issues persist, install MS Visual C++ Runtimes
*Ports not listening on server when using 'netstat -a': Every time this has happened there has been one of the errors that I mentioned above in the execution. Watch the output next time you start the server for these errors, or create a batch script that is located in the same folder of the RoR2 Dedicated Server executable, and consists of:
"Risk of Rain 2.exe" > logfile.txt and check out that file after a few minutes of running the server again.
*When the server is up and properly communicating, you should see the following lines at the end of your CMD window that look like the window attached.

#

Again, HUGE thanks to @unborn scarab for getting me in the right direction! What a guy.

@digital gust Sorry to bother you, my friend also got the same problem where he can't press continue, but he can't find the winhttp.dll file, neither can I but I don't have any problem with the game

#

(ho and he did a clean re-install of the game so it's not mod related)

I seem to be getting pings from the #announcements channel, but I can't view it for some reason. It just says "Load more messages" at the top, but it doesn't do anything when I click it.

@fresh dew keep clicking it. took me ~5 clicks for the message to load. not sure why but, it worked.

#

Huh. What fixed it was subscribing the channel to one of my servers then clicking the "Load more messages" button. Weird.

Thanks for the help!

server shuts down everytime. is that an isseu on my side?

tried to play 4 times and each time i get kicked and says the server shut down in first or second world

For some reason i can't play with my friends... i press join the screen goes black for a few sec and when i join i can't see our characters and we both can't press lock in. We tried restarting our games,steam and pc and nothing works. Does anyone have the same problem?

sage kettle
bright obsidian
#

yep

#

getting that too, starts after i play for about 30 minutes, since recently (at least since the update)

sage kettle
#

I've tried a fresh install of the game and "verifying integrity of game files" whatever that actually does. Only fix is to completely relaunch the game

bright obsidian
#

it's actually shockingly close to 30 minutes playtime every time, i think the last few times it's happened have been 29 minutes in, and a couple of 30 minutes in

sage kettle
#

Which is obviously not feasible in a game like this

#

What distro are you on and which proton version are you using?

bright obsidian
#

yes I play for 30 minutes then enjoy stuttery mouse for the next 140 minutes

#

manjaro 5.4 proton 4.11-10

hey there fellas have u experienced crashes after this update im getting black screen often and it ruins my runs

sage kettle
#

Also on Manjaro 5.4. Proton 4.11-10

bright obsidian
#

gr

#

maybe a proton 4.11-10 regression?

sage kettle
#

It's possible. I haven't tried forcing using an earlier proton version. Not sure if the game will work or not doing so

bright obsidian
#

pretty sure the second most recent proton version also works fine, but it will take half an hour to test (whether the bug occurs), lol

sage kettle
#

4.2-9 is the most recent I have available after 4.11-10.

#

I'll give it a shot

bright obsidian
#

I believe I used to play with that before 4.11 dropped

sage kettle
#

See you in 30+ minutes

bright obsidian
#

personally think I might try a custom proton ver, like 4.20-ge

mellow flax
#

I'm having trouble where every time I get a run into about 190 minutes, the game crashes. Any fixes?

sage kettle
#

30m46s, no stutter so far. Will report back either at the end of the run or with time the stutter started.

night yarrow
#

@uneven crow something like the Source games had the server send files no matter what but it doesn't seem like RoR2 has this option. I was actually going to check this out at some point, but the best way is to download all things, create some installation batch file, and then host it somewhere for users to get it themselves

sage kettle
#

@bright obsidian No stutter from start to finish. Suggest changing proton version to fix

@night yarrow I figured that would be the most likely option at this time, though it's not ideal. Let me know if you find out anything further regarding this topic, and feel free to add me on Discord if you'd like to continue the conversation

Anyone have a workaround on XBOX for when I load into my buddies lobby, I don't actually go to character select, I just sit in the menu with "quick play, private game, etc." greyed out, and if he tries to start the game, it tells me "could not connect". We sometimes get in lobby together but 95% of the time has been this scenario

if someone can go in their files and copy there interactors file and send it to us we can probably just replace our old ones

@sweet geyser okay updating your drivers and display, set -autoconfig on the launch settings will fix the problem

night yarrow
#

@bold needle are you talking about wanting to host the server on your PC? When you create a private game lobby with you and your friends, you are the one 'hosting' the server and your friends connect to you.

However if you want to host the dedicated server (which is unnecessary unless you want it running all the time) you can host it on your normal desktop and then just have your friends connect to it by givin out your IP

Hey I'm on ps4 and every so often while I'm in the middle of a run the game will just crash out of nowhere this mostly happens when playing multiplayer. Whether I'm hosting the game or not. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening in the future? As it is kind of frustrating to lose a really good run when playing for an hour 1+ on multiplayer.
