I'm running into a problem with sound. Both music and SFX keep cutting out randomly for 0.5-2 seconds. I've confirmed that it's only with RoR2 and not an issue with my headphones or sound setup. Anyone know what might be cause/fix? I tried googling but couldn't find a fix. It seems to happen on the first run and seems to go away after alt-tabbing a few times.
@rancid moon For anyone facing the same problem, I fixed it by installing audio drivers from my motherboard vendor's website. I forgot to install them after re-formatting my PC and didn't face a problem in any games till now. It popped up in RoR2 and a couple more games. Maybe a Windows update broke something.

Hey so I've been trying to play multiplayer with my girlfriend as she recently got a PC, but everytime I get into a game with her it crashes around 15 minutes in give or take 5ish minutes. Her singleplayer works fine and I can play multiplayer with other friends with no issues. Any suggestions as to how to fix this? Thanks!
jovial inlet
post your/her crash crash dump and output log in here (how to do so is pinned in #ror2-bug-reports-pc )

@copper zodiac RoR2 uses ram as needed. if you have 32g for example, and for some strange reason the game needs that much, it will use it if needed.

@daring hill You should be able to pick resolution closest to your liking, and if there is no wide enough for selection you may try to edit the config.
Search forresolution 1280x1024x75; line in the middle of the YOUR STEAM LIB\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data\Config\config.cfg You might want to check for local files with your steam to find the game folder for that.

I have update 1.05..... isnt that newer than 1.0 that should have the captain?
Btw that's why I'm confused lol

maybe console is just weird

hopoo hasn't stated when console 1.0 will be out
they peobably numbered the console versions weirdly

Hello. My laptop usually runs the game at a fairly-stable 24 fps (virtually every relevant setting that I can think of minimized/disabled; it looks like crap, but the game is fun, so it's all good), but now it's running it at about 12 fps.
This was not the case yesterday afternoon, but happened by... about 13 hours ago... and hasn't changed since. I've tried restarting my computer and given the in-game settings another look, but that's as far as my troubleshooting has gone.
zealous slate
I... think I fixed it. For some reason, it decided to maximize my resolution. (I didn't notice, because, uh... I already run the game looking like crap; I'm not going to notice that the resolution, of all things, is a bit different.)
also i turned off LOD reduction and OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS.

@faint mango disable any overclock you made, focus on ram 1st. Disable XMP memory profile from bios.

@steady topaz thank you. no overclocking. is XMP something that's enabled by default? i've never really messed around with bios settings
steady topaz
@faint mango some motherboards use it on 1 notch. You might want to google what XMP is and how to turn it off on your particular motherboard.
There is a known issue with some players that game failes to read data from ram because of overclocks. XMP is one of kinds of oc.
faint mango
thanks, i'll look into it. my original problem was that the game was basically overheating my cpu after about an hour, so i've been trying to dial back settings to get it to keep me in game
so many particle effects and stuff going on after a while, that it was just cooking my pc lol
steady topaz
I also should point out, that i assumed you have this problem because its common, but the screenshot you provided doesnt exactly state that.
The error in your screenshot occurs when there was an attempt to read/write something and it criticaly failed.

So I stopped playing for a bit and when I started playing again the game crashes almost immediately after launching. Well, maybe not "crashing" but it stops responding. I have the latest gpu drivers, I've also tried running as admin, verifying integrity, and fully uninstalling and reinstalling to no prevail...
lunar geyser
I was about to post the same thing, except I don't even know how to find the output log. Whenever it tries to debug using visual studio I get this error:
I don't overclock, I've modded before, I've updated drivers, I've tried running as admin, I've re-installed ror2 multiple times, I've verified integrity of game files, etc
I don't know if I'm forgetting something
marble zenith
You can find the log under %APPDATA%/LocalLow/Hopoo Games LLC, is yours crashing immediately also?
lunar geyser
yeeup
well, i get a black screen + what i can only assume is the menu music
and then the unity crash handler shows up after a few seconds

The order of presses is important. You also sometimes cant use other button like FN on notebooks. Your keyboard layout should be us standart.

@lunar geyser it looks like driver ralted crash. Try to update your videodrivers. You also can check if it is indeed related to your gpu by switching the primary graphics device for integrated, in this case your game should load normaly, but performance will be below the ground.
Your gpu is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M and the driver is 456 71 try other drivers, more recent and older too.
@marble zenith no need to
ill dm you
i only have an output_log in here
@lunar geyser
You're looking in wrong folder.
You need Local/Temp and you're looking into LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC
Check for crashfolders here:
C:/Users/Jason/AppData/Local/Temp/Hopoo Games, LLC/Risk of Rain 2/Crashes
steady topaz
@lunar geyser That didnt have anything new about the situation for me. I still think its driver related issue.
Did you try to switch gpu for the game to test it?
lunar geyser
i am kinda dumb and i don't know what that means
steady topaz
<@&559786374228738069> nwm, thx!
velvet comet
lunar geyser
some guy posted a nsfw video
steady topaz
@lunar geyser So basically you can right click on game exe and there should be nvidia options, where you can switch dedicated gpu or integrated gpu to use.
You also can open NVIDIA Control Panel and from there you should navigate to manage 3d settings menu, from there you can switch your preffered gpu for entire pc. There is also option for specific programs next to it.
When you run the game with that selection you can controll what gpu game actually used, if you open your recent gamelog you will see:
Initialize engine version: 2018.4.16f1 (e6e9ca02b32a)
GfxDevice: creating device client; threaded=1
Direct3D:
Version: Direct3D 11.0 [level 11.0]
Renderer: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M (ID=0x139b)
In this case game uses dedicated GTX 960M
Why tag us
Captain Sae, someone didnt play nice and posted what they shouldnt.
I made a report and didnt delete it, only edited.
Because tag still stays even if message is deleted by user, this creates confusion for tagged person, as they cant find where they were tagged to.
Thx for your work here!
steady topaz
@lunar geyser Well, its a bit more complicated than just searching for compatible drivers. You would want to try drivers manually, each pack from older versions to newer in search for working ones.
And even then its not garantied to work as i only assumed that this is driver issue. I might be wrong, as there is nothing dirrectly pointing at the problem in the logs.
You would need some expirience to try other drivers, its not hard to learn.
You may check for recent driver on https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
@lunar geyser That page tells that you have most recent drivers installed (456.71)
This page contains older driver sets that support your gpu https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx
lunar geyser
alright i'll try to figure it out tmr
idk if my geforece experience has anything to do with it
steady topaz
@lunar geyser bst thing to test first is if your game runs on integrated gpu. Because if it isnt - the problem might be in other place than driver.

Hello. My friend and I are having trouble connecting to each other to play co-op.
Actually, we can connect, but everything after that works wrong. The one of us who hosts the game is able to perform every usual action: pick a character, choose a difficulty etc. But the one who connects typically is not able to do anything as well as he cannot see his character in the menu. It looks like he has already been kicked from the game and just sees the UI. When the game starts (after waiting 1 min, because connected one cannot press ready but can see the timer), host can play like he is alone and the other one whether stays in the menu or gets a black screen (and when the host stops the game he returns to the main menu screen automatically).
It happens regardless of whether it is a private/friends-only or public game. We tried to connect via friend request, just clicking the ‘connect to friend’ in steam overlay and even through in-game browser (when the game is public). We restarted our games/steam/PCs, we reinstalled games, checked game files (according to steam files were fine) – nothing helped. I also made my friend list in steam opened, maybe it is related… But still -- nothing.
Then we tried to connect to other players through browser and everything was absolutely fine! We were able to play not only with strangers but also with each other by joining to one game together, but we want to play, without anyone else and without any crutches.
I think it important to note that recently I gave the game to my friend as a gift (Yesterday, actually).
plucky imp
@marble elk Not sure the cause but the work around for this is to host a dedicated server yourself.
marble elk
Yeah, this is what we are trying right now, but it doesn’t seem like a solution without crutches for me.
I did a little searching before coming here. There are several requests on this issue on Reddit and Steam dating back to 2019 without one specific solution. It seems to me that this bug takes different forms for different people and has different solutions as some people are reporting the problem disappeared after performing some actions.
https://steamcommunity.com/app/632360/discussions/0/1812044473307317967/

https://www.reddit.com/r/riskofrain/comments/bzique/cant_connect_to_friends_in_ror2/
It is also important to note, that we were playing RoR2 during free weekend in March, if I remember correctly. And we didn’t have any problems. I also played the game with my other friend later in summer without any problems too.
And I still think that the information that I gave the game to my friend through the Steam gift system may be relevant.
steady topaz
marble elk
@steady topaz Thanks. Really appreciate you finding this old advice of yours. It is a solution. As well as a dedicated server.
But, you see, if we are talking about firewall (and port forwarding) or about ‘creating this and setting up that’ (when another one can just click ‘invite’ and enjoy the game), then this is not the case. We are not having issues with connecting to other players. We have the only one issue – connecting to each other (but maybe this is the case, what do you think at the second glance?). As well as we don’t want to be involved in all this (a little) deep stuff, like setting own server. We will, if it is the only thing left, but until then we just want to, well, get this to work as it works for everyone else. As it worked for us a while ago (on a free weekend, which is important, I guess). This is what I think is the real solution. And not the crutches.
And maybe we want also to help other people, who might find themselves in this kind of situation…
I already mentioned those discussions on Steam/Reddit. Some people from there reported pretty same problem, but they had it whenever they connect to another game. Some other people solved it by steps which never helped us. This is why I think there is something more than just firewall problems (which would make it impossible to connect to any other game for both of us. Wouldn’t it?).
I also deleted my friend from Steam for a while. And we also cleared our download cache in Steam. For no result.
Thank you anyway. Maybe we will eventually try set up dedicated server. Hope not.
steady topaz
@marble elk Well, i started to explain on how things work and realised those explanations is no use to the actual problem.
Basicaly its definetly your or your friend networking issue. Its not a game fault. Game doesnt have any central server. Its p2p thru steam servers (note that there is many)
In order to eliminate the middle of those steam server you can try direct connection. It doesnt use steam at all, and the game connects you directly thru your external ip.
In case of poorly establised connection, not propperly open or forwarded ports - game may connect one to another, but the data that client needs back might get lost. This leads to clients that able to connect, but cant pick characters and if able to to even start - they cant get out of the pod.
In case of radmin (lan emulation network) it installs a virtual network adapter to your machine, that is able to communicate to router and manage ports in order to achive connection to radmin server as a middle poin. In this case game thinks it is connected thru local network (lan) and doesnt use steam servers, instead using radmin middle point server. It adds the delay - for shure, but its mostly stable and the benefit of virtual network adapter that its tryes to achive connection by itself. You dont need to thinker with firewalls and port forwarding.
If your goal is to fix the problem - try direct connection, check on connectivity and ping from the game console. Forward the ports and try to use upnp.
If you're not able to connect dirrectly - there is no way you're gonna have stable dediserver on this machine, just because its basically same thing as running a host from the game itself. You have to set ports and firewalls for dediserver exactly like you need it for the game itself.
If you're able to setup a dediserver on other machine - yep, it easyly can act like a middle point.
marble elk
@steady topaz Ok, this is a really helpful explanation, I'll give everything mentioned a try, when I get to my PC again. In the meantime I'd like to understand one more thing. Why do you think we can still connect to other players' games? Why is the problem affecting connection only between us? I am sure it is not related to poor connection. Maybe it is the port opening/forwarding thing... But why then are we able to play online with everyone but each other? I thought that firewall or port issues would make it completely impossible to play online (or just to the same problems, but with every lobby in the game).
steady topaz
@marble elk You re both connect to a host, as a clients, Clients are isolated from eachother. Only interactions they can make to eachother are going thru host.
You both are able to send data to host and recive it from there back. But when you're connected to eachother someone recives very delayed data, or doesnt recive it at all. This might be due to a number of issues, that i can't fully explain. I have only limited understanding on how the networking works. I can speak only from my personal expirience and from what i know about this game and others.

Hey, im having some trouble playing the game. When I try to launch the game it goes to a black screen then closes. I just recently downloaded the special k mod. Do you guys think this may be the problem.
lunar geyser
i managed to run the game when i forced it to use the integrated graphics pog
it still bricks when i use the nvidia option though
steady topaz
@lunar geyser that indeed indicates driver related problem. Try to remember when was the last time your game ran fine, go to that page ith older drivers and download drivers from that time, or older.
You might want to delete your drivers before installing older drivers. You better to find a guide on how to do that, it might require some additional software like driver removal tool.
I might not able to help you with that, i am packing my stuff rn to move to another city, if you're not shure about something - better ask about that first. There is plenty of guides on how to install older drivers on youtube.
@solid cove manual install? If so - wipe game folder entirely and redownload the game again with checking its files integrity with steam.
Its important to wipe this folder before: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2
After you done this - never ever install mods manually, use r2modman, it will take care for mods and will not damage game files.
Refer to this video: https://youtu.be/MTQ-tbVU8-o
@steep crow disable vsync from the game, cap the framerate at 60, set performance power profile from nvidia control panel.
There is a wierd issue where hi end gpu doesnt get any load. We were not able to pinpoint the problem. Things you can do:
Check the performance and loads during gameplay on your cpu, use cpu-z for example. Core speed should be stable, but high enough. Check if thermal throttling holding the cpu performance down.
Rise gfx settings to the max and check load on gpu when you have framedrops. Compare its load to same situation, but on lowest gfx settings. If there is no change to framerate or loads - this might indicate throttling of cpu, or other cpu related issues. Game is way heavyer on cpu loads than on gpu.

@bold pine In regards to the gamepad issue. Try this:
- Right click Windows Start Button
- Select Device Manager
- Expand Human Interface Devices
- Disable your gamepad (May be listed under Xbox 360 Peripherals instead of Human Interface Devices if you're using an Xbox 360 Gamepad).
If that fixes, then you may need to uninstall your device and reinstall it. Or potentially update drivers. Both are done within Device Manager.

Hi everybody!
Actually I have a big problem with RoR2. I have the game on my Nintendo switch and yesterday, i bought it on pc in order to play with my friends. But the game won’t launch!
So i have find out on the internet that it is probably because my drivers wasn’t updated. So i updated everything, my nvidia gtx 1050 driver and my amd processor drivers.
But actually, it says that my amd radeon vega 8 graphics GPU and amd rysen 5 2500U with radeon vega mobile gfx CPU CANNOT run the game !!
Is it really possible ? The game literally don’t launch because of this ? Or can I find a way to make it work ?
Thank you for your answers! 🙂

@deep vale, We have two known solutions for the topic 'no gamepad binding'. Would you like to view them? (Y/N)
deep vale

plush treeBOT
@deep vale,
This issue occurs when Windows is reporting a gamepad, joystick, or other input device providing a non-neutral input. This is usually caused by:
- Having a gamepad, flight stick, HOTAS, pedal, racing wheel, or any other kind of non-keyboard/non-mouse input device plugged in. Simply unplug the device from your computer.
- Having vjoy installed. If you've ever tried to use a GameCube controller with your PC, you probably have it installed. Opening your computer's Device Manager window should allow you to disable or uninstall it.

You have something in your system that tells the game "there is a device (HID) that have some button pressed (or axis isnt exactly zeroed, like stick pushed away from resting point)
Most common issue comes from HOTAS, wheels and pedals, and ofcourse from Vjoy program. Saw you already tryed to unplug everything. But in case of vjoy - you have to uninstall it completly. Simply disabling the device it creates in device manager doesnt work for the game.
Corrupted profiles issue:
You have leftover data after you messed with your profiles, those profiles contain not only your game progress, like unlocks, characters, log entrys and some game statistics. BUT also your device settings, like gamepad mappings, acceleration values etc. If you edited your profiles - likely this problem comes from damage you made during those edits. Game doesnt like significant changes to the profile filesize, it's extreemly sensitive to formating and standart the file was saved in.
Your game profile should be in default steam folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\ STEAM ID HERE \632360\remote\UserProfiles
plush treeBOT
@steady topaz, We have two known solutions for the topic 'no gamepad binding'. Would you like to view them? (Y/N)
steady topaz
And the profile itself looks like this: 506e0616-0351-4d6f-a01d-167ceb3bb438.xml
You can see the names of corrupted profiles in the game profile selection screen. (Also you got those on the screenshot above)
Those files were dubled and placed into your game root folder, into corrupted profiles folder.
There is also a log of this event inRisk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data\bad_profiles.log
I cant provide exact link for corrupted profiles, i dont remmember it rn. Should be around Risk of Rain 2_Data You also may use ctrl+f3 (windows search) and type a part of the name of any corrupted profile to find where it is exactly.
If you wish to walk the hard way for saving your game progress you can extract the data from those corrupted profiles and inject it piece by piece into new profile, but its tedious and takes alot of time.
If you're fine with starting your game from new profile:
Delete corrupted profiles folder, and bad_profiles.log
This will remove those red profiles from the game.
Basically what happened to you - you somehow managed to damage your savefile (profile, also file that contains the data about gamepads) with drivers of your HID devices. That damage could be very little, lets say the data that gamepad you tryed to use written its mapping into profile. But the game took those chages as a corruption sign and marked this profile red, placed it into container and refuses to touch it again.
Make a backup of your profile from time to time from this point. Simply create a folder, for example BACKUP right next to your current profile and copy that profile into that folder. The game wont touch it and steam cloud save wont overwrite it ever again. But when this situation happens again - copy the file back where it was.

@steady topaz,
This issue occurs when Windows is reporting a gamepad, joystick, or other input device providing a non-neutral input. This is usually caused by:
- Having a gamepad, flight stick, HOTAS, pedal, racing wheel, or any other kind of non-keyboard/non-mouse input device plugged in. Simply unplug the device from your computer.
- Having vjoy installed. If you've ever tried to use a GameCube controller with your PC, you probably have it installed. Opening your computer's Device Manager window should allow you to disable or uninstall it.
steady topaz
@bold pine read what autosupport says ⬆️ , but its basically the same thing i told you already.
steady topaz
@quiet gale this is entirely the networking problem.
There wasnt any changes on how game multiplayer works.
Check that you can host with other p2p games, if you cant - look for your NAT settings, open ports, disable firewalls. Try to use upnp.
You can try direct connection, this way you can avoid steam servers entirely. Helps to those, who have issue with server that steam provides.
Or you can try lan emulation. In this case you and your friend need some kind of lan emulation software. RadminVPN works best for me and my friends. Its free and easy to use.
Read this old message of mine, it explains how to use those 2 methods.

what about this popping up in multiplayer? how do i work around this? Ive already reinstalled ror2 and verified its files and this still shows up once i hop into a multiplayer game
steady topaz
@prisma flume you telling me that you updated 1050 driver, but you have amd radeon gpu? I dont mean to offend you, but you need to read what gpu is. Where to find what gpu you have on your pc (i assume laptop). Where to look for drivers for your particular gpu and how to install particular drivers. That's general knowledge, it wont help to solve your issue with the game, but it greatly helps to.
About the game issue itself.
Describe exactly what you see on game start, any sound, any window that pops out from the game.
Drop the logfile RIGHT AFTER you ran the game and it "crashed".
You will fine the log here: C:\Users\ YOUR USER NAME HERE \AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2
Note that AppData folder is hidden, you can replace your username in this link with your actual username and paste this link dirrectly into file manager into link window.
Or you can navigate folder by folder untill you find the file output_log.txt from appdata folder. In this case you need to press ⊞Win + R combination, it will call a small window where you need to type appdata and press enter. This will bring you to that hidden folder.
If your game crashes with unity error window - game saved a bunch of crashfiles, those might be helpfull too. You will find crashfiles in folders
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\ looks like crash.dmp and error.log
Drop most recent output_log.txt, crashfile and errorlog right here.
Dxdiag file could be helpfull too, but it contains some personal data.
@frank kite same issue, exactly.

@steady topaz much appreciated. I will pour over this tonight. Quick read: I didn't edit any profiles other than removing the profile folder under "632360\remote\UserProfiles" Also, no Vjoy ever installed on this game. I will def go through this and completely clear my profiles as per your's and @plush tree bot's instructions.
Not worried about game progress, multiple easy ways to get back to the same unlocks as before, just REALLY want to play this game with my crew! 🙂 Thanks again.
steady topaz
@bold pine i cant really tell you what exactly happened, i am extrapolating, from all the issues other people had and i were able to help with.
There is a slight chance that your microsoft VC 2015-2019 went crazy and corrupted needed for the game api. This issue have unpreddictable outcomes, but easyly fixable. It wont hurt if you uninstall both 2015-2019 for 86 and for 64 from your programs and components and install those needed for the game api's back from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
First try to clear corrupted profiles and unplug your non keyboard and mouse HID, run the game and create a new profile. See if it works correctly after a couple of runs, shouldnt be long, even a minute run should be enough to check.
bold pine
@steady topaz I get this issue right at the loading screen. Oh, and to be precise, it's not that the game can't find the controller, it's that it refuses to see the keyboard. I can't even tell it to start the game, never even lets me out of the loading screen unless i'm using the Xbox gamepad.
prisma flume
@steady topaz ok.... well when i start the game, it goes to a black screen for like 3-4 seconds (i can see the game in my tasks bar) and then the game just go off and thats all. I used radeon software to update my drivers but i can see that the game doesn't support my processor
steady topaz
@bold pine yeap, that's exactly waht happens when there is non 0 input from non keyboard and mouse HID. There was a case for one guy who had fancy mouse. Check if your mouse needs software update. Game might take it as a wierd gamepad too.
bold pine
Actually, gonna try some of these now. BRB.
steady topaz
@prisma flume even if the game cant support it - it should be able to atleast run. I need to see the log.
prisma flume
O already saw this vid thats why i dont understand
steady topaz
@prisma flume can you drop the files into discord?
steady topaz
ok, let me check what this file has to say.
prisma flume
Thanks for your attention
steady topaz
@prisma flume its very short. Game couldnt load api.
Restart your laptop, then restart your steam client. Just exit and login back. This might help.
Run the game and drop new log here again.
prisma flume
ok do i delete the actual log before ?
steady topaz
@prisma flume you dont need to, it gets rewritten each time you run the game.
prisma flume
okok
bold pine
@steady topaz disable Xbox game pad in Device Manager (and unplugged it), deleted everything under the 632360 folder and cleared the RoR2 install folder. I'm still getting this...
And of course, still no KBM input allowed. FYI, it accepted the spacebar to skip the opening cinematic
but now ignores it
prisma flume
here is the new log
bold pine
These are the ones I disabled in HID:
steady topaz
@bold pine Any bad profiles folder here?
\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data
Its default folder for steam library, you can access it from steam by checking local files of the game.
bold pine
\common\Risk of Rain 2\ was completely emptied before latest reinstall
Never found a bad profiles folder in that location, any other place to check for it?
steady topaz
@bold pine i have no confirmation from others that disabling HID from device manager actually helps. I dont see any outstanding device from the list.
Hm, let me check.
bold pine
Roger that
steady topaz
@prisma flume
I need you to drop me a screenshot of your programs and components installed. In alphabetical order, sorted by name starting from a component before "microsoft visual c...." components and ending on another component after.
You can create a screenshot of window you see by holding alt and taping printscreen button.
Make shure the name is fully visible, sorta like this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/744540313527386122/744642969927286805/unknown.png
prisma flume
ok im working on it
steady topaz
@bold pine disable your steam cloud save for ror2. Wipe the config
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data\Config < its your gfx settings for the game, this file contains selected by default profilename, you can erase the line with it instead.
Wipe the userdata of the game: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\ STEAM ID \632360 (This will delete profiles, including saves and settings for gamepads):
Wipe C:\Users\Admin\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC
There might be some leftovers in temp, but not always:
C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Temp\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\Crashes\crash.dmp
Then use windows search f3 from desctop. and try to find the files from your screenshot. Should be fairly easy and fast if they are still there.

prisma flume
here it goes @steady topaz
steady topaz
@bold pine Drop a pic of your game root folder contents common\Risk of Rain 2 there might be some outdated modfiles. Steam is not able to delete them even if you uninstall the game. If you used manuall install for mods - most likely you have outdated files placed there.
@prisma flume did you even run the game before? how long it was since you installed it 1st time?
prisma flume
i have the game on the switch and i bought it on this wednesday on pc to play with my friends and as soon as i downloaded it, it couldn,t launch...
steady topaz
@prisma flume I see. Uninstall those two components.
bold pine
@steady topaz uninstalled, cleared all of the folder mentioned. Searches of all local drives reveals no folder with Risk of Rain, Hapoo, or 632360 anywhere. This is as clean as I can make it. Reinstalling and testing.
steady topaz
@prisma flume Download and install those 2 files to replace those components. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
You need both for 64 and for 86.
bold pine
Didn't get them all. Sigh. And searches for these strings do NOT find them anywhere. Also, cloud saves for this game are disabled.
Still the same 'no keyboard' issue.
prisma flume
ok im on my way
steady topaz
Huh, i know no other places where those files could be stored. They all have 0 playtime.
bold pine
Over the weekend I even did a Steam reinstall hoping that would solve it.
steady topaz
cant really test this myself rn, i had the game on ssd wich i needed to remove for my work and now i have to bare mobile internet and cant really download the game back.
@bold pine and what about the pic of game folder?
steady topaz
Drop here the bad_profiles.log pls
steady topaz
there is no way the drive should be the root of this issue
bold pine

steady topaz
@bold pine game fails at loading the very 1st character from profile. Did you installed the VCs from microsoft? 2015 ones?
prisma flume
ok done, do i run the game now ?
steady topaz
@prisma flume yeah, give it a try. Bring the new logfile again after you done!
steady topaz
@bold pine had a case where game couldnt load xml files because of those 2015 VCs corruption.
bold pine
just about to paste that exact link in.
steady topaz
@bold pine You would need to uninstall 2015-2019 for 64 and 86, just like here
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/559902278018924557/766741540898209832/Sans_titre.png
prisma flume
here is the new log, the game still doesn't start
steady topaz
@prisma flume can you drop the pic from those components again? There is a chance that installation of 2015 one failed.
@prisma flume same exact pic like you dropped here before. Just new.⬆️
bold pine
@steady topaz no joy. Uninstalled those dlls, reinstalled
prisma flume
okay
steady topaz
@bold pine Hm, i cant think of any possible tread that leads to solution here. Are you shure that installation of 2015 VCs gone fine? Sometimes 2019 doesnt allow to install it propperly, even if 2019 fully deleted from the pc. Instalation wizzard tells that there is already such product installed.
prisma flume
here it is
bold pine
Both installs went fine. But your focus on the VC's triggered something... are there any OTHER runtimes that might be impacting this?
steady topaz
@prisma flume Yep, there is 2015 (86) missing. Download it (if you didnt) and try to install it back. Pay attention to what the wizzard tells you. If it tells that there is already installed copy of this product - let me know.
bold pine
WTH? Suddenly I'm down to only 4 corrupted profile. PROGRESS! 🙂
Any way to tell what files/folder Steam is hitting during install? trace prog or something?
I still think there's a nugget of old corrupted info somewhere on my system
prisma flume
it propose me to repare or uninstall
steady topaz
@bold pine none of what i aware. See the pic above? game uses 2015 (86) VC.
This particular VC gets corrupted once windows decides that it needs 2019 one installed. It might be windows update, user could be not aware of this instalation. But sometimes it makes alot of mess. And windows doesnt detect any problem, like at all. Instalation wizzard sees this component as already installed. And you cant install it back sometimes. You have to manually edit out the registry to install 2015 one back.
Go figure why..
@prisma flume ^ this happened to you.
bold pine
steady topaz
@bold pine I think its tied to vc, as i had a dozen of similar issues before.
bold pine
those are the two that I just reinstalled
And I paid close attention, installs went smoothly.
Let me re-run tho just to be sure
steady topaz
@bold pine yeah, i see nothing wierd about your vcs there. Hm
prisma flume
the game still doesn't launch
steady topaz
@prisma flume So.. you might need a special software. Ccleaner
Its a free program that can scan your pc registry and find this problem that prevents your from installing vc 2015 (86).
Its easy to use, you just install free version, hit scan on registry tab and when its done you fix found problems with a button "fix" it askes you if you want to make a backups, no harm for saying yes to it, but i skip it ushually.
Then restart your pc, give it a whole 10 sec rest and run again. After your laptop fully loaded try to install vc2015 (86) again, it should work this time.
prisma flume
ok i know this program im gonna try
bold pine
It's still seeing old files/info
VC's aren't it, promising tho they sounded. I still see old/corrupted info that's coming from somewhere
steady topaz
@bold pine i dont get where game finds those. I might be not aware of such place. I had no corrupted profiles myself. Only profiles of such kind were created by me intentionally.
We might need to ask the devs about that. Because i dont think anyone else here knows why this happens.
bold pine
searching all local files again for just a portion of one, hoping to get lucky
steady topaz
@bold pine i suspect some device writting its data into profile once game starts, log should have some entry of profile beeing loaded. Drop fresh log here again.
bold pine
steady topaz
@bold pine This one C:\Users\ USER NAME \AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\output_log.txt
bold pine
steady topaz
@bold pine
For each profile the log contains an entry that tells the game failed to load the very first character.(Line 1, position 1.) Those profiles should be readable, i dont think they are corrupted, but because the game couldnt read them it decided that they are corrupted and marked them red.
Failed to load user profile /UserProfiles/e84d1d84-8f01-41ad-8cd7-4f07d84c432c.xml: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.

OK, fair. But why does the game even KNOW about them, given how thoroughly I'm cleaning out install folders?
steady topaz
I honestly have 0 idea where those profiles comes from. I would like to get a look into them for gamepad binding mapping.
Game can create those files i think, but it cant read them. How?
NO IDEA
prisma flume
okay i've done it like you said but still does the same thing sadly .....
bold pine
Agreed. @steady topaz thank you. Can you pass this to dev's? Get their take on it?
steady topaz
@prisma flume can you confirm that you have both 2015 vc installed now? for 86 and 64?
bold pine
You're efforts were herculean, no doubt
prisma flume
yes i have both installed
steady topaz
@bold pine oh i am not related to hopoo dev team, i am just like you, a regular user. I just helped a bunch of people before and know how some of game thingys work.
Ghor was very helpfull before and is a very nice guy. I think he wont be mad if you ping him and ask for help in this one.
bold pine
Roger that, sir!
steady topaz
@prisma flume can you drop the logfile again?
steady topaz
@prisma flume Are you shure the game files (root folder) are in the steam librarry folder?
@prisma flume I can create very same logfile, when i have my steam librarry folder on C disc and the actual game files on other disk that isnt listed as a steam librarry folder. If i run the game from exe on the second (non library folder) drive - i get same result.
prisma flume
yes, my steam library folder is on my disk D and every games are here
should i install the game on C default
steady topaz
@prisma flume i am just making guesses rn, not shure what i could suggest here.
Dont think that installing the game on C could help. If other games running fine from the drive you have steam librarry on - this game should be too.
@prisma flume any other games on unity engine? rocket league, subnautica?
You might try to create another steam librarry folder and copy (its better to download again actually) gamefiles there. After you get the game files on other steam librarry folder you might try to run the game from exe from that folder.
See if steam picks it up.
Rn your problem seems to be that game doesnt see steam running and shutting down itself. Dont think its more problems with VC, i assume those 2 files are installed correctly now. Give your laptop another reboot just in case and restart your steam client after that. Try the game again and drop logfile once again. That file is the only leading end that we have here. Your game shouldnt have any error files or crashfiles to investigate. The game thinks that there is no errors and doing what it should in case of steam not running.
ill dm you.
Solution: Reinstall the game on newly made steam librarry folder on system disc. Cause of this issue is unknown however.

i have encountered le problem with discord, im currently using the browser cause the app broke, ive reinstalled 3 times and relaunched several times and i have no idea what to do im not good with compooter, im assuming i can find help here

you should delete all discord related files and reinstall (probably some files in appdata you missed)
any chance you were installing that other discord? it can cause a lot of problems like this I've heard

I have a problem! Every time I close Risk of Rain and re-open it, my controls reset to the default. How can I fix this?
Risk of Rain is installed in my C drive under Program Files if that helps. I've not modded the game in any way.
I just bought it, and I also play with a controller. Please @ me if you know what the issue is.

I'm still getting the multiplayer freeze issue, but it doesnt always happen. Sometimes it's completely fine but most of the time it will freeze
Nothing is changing on my end as far as I can tell
Video of the issue. None of my recording software could capture it so I had to use my phone
if anyone can help me I'd appreciate it
compact pewter
@marble hawk set your controls, close the game, make the config read only in the properties, and try again
plucky imp
@past plover restart your computer, if discord is still installed then uninstall/delete all files for it. if it says shortcut invalid reinstall.
past plover
tried all that, still doesnt work
i went in and deleted every discord related file and restarted my pc then reinstalled, still doesnt work
marble hawk
@compact pewter How do I make the config read only?
Oh, I tried figuring it out. It appears it's already read-only?
marble hawk
Ok.
compact pewter
that would explain why your config edits weren't sticking actually not sure why it's like that by default
marble hawk
Alright, hopefully they'll stick this time. Thank you for the help.
mortal wasp
Hello. Love the game, but i have a problem that prevents me from enjoying it. Each night i play (usually about 4 hours in total) i will kick from the game at least 1 time, and the average is twice.
To describe the circumstances of the kick, i am usually playing multiplayer with friends (they host now for obvious reasons) and am about 30-45minutes into a game. All of a sudden my screen will freeze and then suddenly shut down. I then get the next ROR2 logo as i trie to log back in
Once i attempt to re-log in, the game runs very slow (if, at all) and i cannot get back into any games. Sometimes i open the game and it appears to run in the background, because i can hear the sounds of the game but cannot see anything. The only thing that fixes it is to completely restart my computer. Even ending it in task manager does not permit a successful reboot.
Thankfully, this game allows for you to join back with friends, but the momentum is lost and the round is ruined. I hope someone had this issue and got a resolution because it really makes the game hard to enjoy and otherwise this is a fantastic game.
Some background on my system and the remedies i have tried: I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the game through Steam.
I am always on Discord when the issue occurs.
I am running a Ryzen system on an x570 mobo, 3900x, 2080 sup, 32gb ram @3600mhz. I have tried turning off the DOCP profile (XMP) and it actually crashed more often so i turned it back on.
I am down to try to re-install my operating system at this point. Just hoping someone out there has gone down this road before and can assist. Thank you for any tips you can offer.

i hope i can get a question answered quickly
me and a friend want to play multiplayer and he cannot join my lobby. when i host it doesnt allow him to connect to the game. i see him in the lobby menu in the top right but it doesnt say **** has connected in the chat

when i join his game it works perfectly through the lobby and when we try to enter the game i get a black screen and he sees my health as a black bar and after about 15-20 seconds i get put into the load screen as if i just launched the game and it says i disconnected
swift ferry
Same thing is happing to me, some times my camera is under the map
marble hawk
Well, apparently whatever I did STILL has not fixed the issue of my controls being reset. The config file was still read only even after I applied the change.
steady topaz
@marble hawk Controls saved into your game profile. Not in config.
Config contains data about our gfx settings, resolution, volume etc.
Controls are stored into your savefile. (Profile)
Profiles are stored in steam userdata:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\YOUR STEAM ID HERE\632360\remote\UserProfiles\506e0616-0351-4d6f-a01d-167ceb3bb438.xml
Note: that even small changes could corrupt whole profile and you will lose progress. Make a backup.
Note: steam saves current profile into cloud save each time you get a change in progress or exit the game and loads this profile into your profile folder once you start the game. Disable steam cloud saving before you make any changes, play for a while and then enable it back again.
You absolutely do NOT want to check read only on profile. Your game wont be able to save your progress.
@mighty turret @swift ferry Disable firewall (or make exceptions for the game and steam), Check upnp in your router, Forward or open 7777 port.
If it didnt help there is workarounds:
Find a dedicated server that you and your friends can play on.
Try direct connection (doesnt use steam server to connect).
Try lan emulation network (VPN).

it just becomes a black screen
and it used to work properly before that
I reinstalled the game
nothing happened
NVM
It now works
junior prism
What's the issue?
steady topaz
@bleak slate disable vsync, this thingy tryes to match your monitor refresh rate with the fps of the game, if your game cant produce enough fps - vsync lowers game fps to closest reachable value that can be divided by your monitor refresh rate.
Increase in cpu usage is expected as the game need to work faster, its cpu heavy game.
@uneven dragon
Restart your steam client. Try to run the game.
Check if your game installed in your steam librarry folder. If you're able to create new steam librarry folder and download the game there again - try that too.
If this didnt help:
Was it working before? how long ago?
Any mods involved?
Any sounds from the game when you launch it?
locate and drop your game log right here. You will find it here: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\output_log.txt
Note that appdata is a hidden folder, you might want to press win+R and execute "appdata" in followed window. This will open that folder even if its hidden. Or you can copy the link above and replace Admin with your current PC username. Paste this ink in your explorrer and press enter.

I'm losing my progress every time I close the game. I use steam in Offline mode.
By now, I lost:
- my first play of the game, which had me reach World 4 (I was playing on Easy and found a fresh meat 3D printer on world 2, so before I friggin knew it, BAM MEGA HEALS) that lasted 44 minutes.
- my first unlock, "Advancement".
- a few achievements.

Hey, for some reason, everytime I set my refresh rate to 60hz, it goes back to 59hz automatically even if I click apply. Yes I do have a 60hz monitor, what do I do?
compact pewter
try setting it in your graphics card settings instead of your display setttings
swift ferry
@steady topaz thank for the help however I don't think that's the problem. I've been able to play the game just fine countless time before.
nimble bison
I remain unable to save my progress.
I have narrowed down the cause. logging in or out of Steam will delete all offline saves.
could this be fixed if I disabled cloud storage?
I'll try that.
...
I'm starting to run out of options... and patience.
at this rate, the game is basically unplayable. come on!

@nimble bison make sure the file is not a read-only file. if that is the case, the game cannot overwrite your data and thus cannot save. also, try playing in online mode for once and see if that works
nimble bison
@jovial inlet
do you suggest, say, playing a bit in online (to CREATE the file properly, and save, and whatnot) and then see if I can use it in offline?
jovial inlet
what i mean is that you play while connected to internet. not specifically multiplayer
if a save file becomes corrupted, which i dont think is the case here, disable cloud saves
nimble bison
I don't play online, and have not done so
I'll give it a try in that case, and then I'll disable cloud save (I already tried that, though, and I still lose progress
jovial inlet
a corrupted save file shows up with red text in the game. is that the case for you?
jovial inlet
have you tried creating one manually?
and selecting that profile as your current one?
nimble bison
@jovial inlet
holy shit. Uhhhmmm, so this happened
I went online; as usual, no saves.
while online, I make a new save.
die 5 ish times. just to unlock that early achievement.
I then go create a new profile, and then close the game.
go offline, launch the g-
aaaaaaaaand hot damn, I have every single profile I created.
jovial inlet
yup, figured that was the issue
the game creates a global save but that doesnt work if you play offline on boot-up
anyway, glad its working now
nimble bison
@jovial inlet how can I delete unwanted profiles, now?...

Anyone have any tips about the crashing

@swift ferry dont think, try to use other connection types. I cant explain how the game networking works each time someone got same exact problem.
You cant connect to some hosts, because whoever hosts the game - becomes the server. If you or him have connection perts closed, or your data is blocked, or connection is unstable, or connection is relayed - you can connect, but you cant interact (in reasonable time).
try dirrect, then if it isnt working for you try radmin - it works for most of people who i suggested it.

Not sure if this is the right place but I've been having some performance issues as of late. I think I fixed one of them by changing the vsync from the nvidia control panel but I gotta do some testing first.
I'm using 80% GPU on some fairly low graphics settings. I'm not sure what that's about. Or why. The GPU isn't running hot either. My frame rate is taking a hit for... some reason... not sure why.
even stranger is my specs are above the game's steam requirements.

Hey everyone, not sure if this is the right channel to ask but I'm looking to double-dip and was wondering if the PS4 Pro version of the game is 60fps locked (or at least close to it). Currently playing on the Switch and loving the game but man, late game can chug. And sadly, PC is not an option for me.

@cedar hull Drop the log, you also may drop info about your cpu. You will find that info if you press win+R and type "dxdiag" then press enter. This brings in dxdiag window where all info about your pc is listed. Save the info into txt file, it will be named dxdiag.txt then open it and copy parts that specify your gpu and cpu here.
Game is cpu heavy, mostly single core performance. This means that your game might bottleneck at cpu and this brings down your fps in huge fights.
There are also some performance related issues with top hardware that i dont know exact solution for.

Is this the right stuff I needed to copy? I wanted to note that this FPS problem has actually been happening even outside of big fights. Sometimes when nothing is really going on. Also I haven't seen my CPU usage going very high. Mostly the GPU. Which in my other games moves percentages depending on the activity on screen, but in RoR 2 it seems to stay about flat at 80%.
I don't recall having these issues before the 1.0 Launch. I've noticed that the steam FPS monitor stays at 60 a lot of the time, but I'll still se FPS jittering and hitching/a sort of screen tearing behavior. You're the first person to answer me so here's hoping you can help me out

@dry tangle @robust vortex usually this happens if the game detects there's a controller providing a non-neutral input. If there are really no devices plugged in this is usually caused by vjoy, which you'll probably have installed if you've ever tried to use a gamecube controller with your PC. If you hit Windows Key + R and run joy.cpl you can see a list of all controllers detected by Windows, including virtual ones.
steady topaz
@cedar hull Yeah that's the right stuff, from what i see your pc should run the game no problem on highest settings not lower than at 60 Fps even in decent fights at late game.
Unfortunatly i dont know solution, or even cause of your issue.
I suggested to others to try older drivers for gpu. Try to remember when it was the last time your game ran with higher performance and try drivers from that time.
Try this one first: https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/162102/en-us
And then select a few older ones rom this page:
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx
The game engine didnt change on 1.0 update, in fact nothing about how game works changed, that might cause low performance. But for some reason ppl having this issue.
If you gonna try this, please keep us updated, since almost no one left a note about if it worked for them.

Heyo, I think there's been a few cases but my game crashes on launch, I verified files to which it said they were all there and I tried a reinstall to no avail. Any tips?
cedar hull
@steady topaz I'd like to give it a shot, but I honestly can't remember the last time I played where it worked. It'd be a guessing game. I suppose I could test each driver version out and see what happens though that would take quite a bit of time.

errant hatch
verify files through steam?
quiet gale
hmm, my game's been stuttering really bad today
nothing has changed since yesterday where it was working fine
steady topaz
@sterile marten that was your steam client acting up. Not gonna dive into details but, restart your steam next time it happens.
@fair raven use r2modman. If you installed mods manually - wipe entire folder of the game, not just with steam uninstall. Navigate to game folder and delete everything. Only this way you can get rid of the mods you installed by hand.
Once you're using r2modman - share same mod profile to all your friends. This enshures desync as little as possible. read descriptions of all the mods you're useing, some of them cant work in multiplayer, ushually it is stated somewhere.
About connection you can read here: https://discordapp.com/channels/417739215355510784/559902278018924557/724218038651453511
Basically you tryed to join your friend as a client and you had poor connection to his host. Try direct connection - its not using steam servers, should work for you.
If not - ask your friend to install radmin vpn and join same network together (or create one, its better)
Game can support multiple connection types, your other friends does not need to use any of those if theyr connection is fine.
quiet gale
I reinstalled my game, verified files, etc. I still get extreme stuttering ingame
This was not the case at all until today

@quiet gale drop the log

sorry but where do I find that again?

quiet gale
steady topaz
@quiet gale Not shure what's wrong, describe the stuttering, how much does the framerate goes down, how fast, is there any period or condition for those drops? maybe it happens only when you move your mouse?
quiet gale
It might actually be tied with my mouse movements, actually
It's really bad when I look around
steady topaz
@quiet gale can you unplug your mouse to confirm? move with keyboard, or use gamepad
quiet gale
nope, it's not tied with the mouse
the FPS drops consistently to the 30s every few seconds
keep in mind everything was buttery smooth for the entire history of me playing this game until now
steady topaz
@quiet gale Welp, sorry. I need to get some sleep before going to work. I need more details.
Try the mouse thingy, if you dont see framedrops when mouse in unplugged - update mouse software, issue comes from high polling rate for mouse.
If you still see framedrops - check on temps, check if there is no throttling either power or thermal. Disable vsync, lock the game framerate at 60 with fps_max 60 command in the console ``+ctrl+alt. Or set it in your game config. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Risk of Rain 2\Risk of Rain 2_Data\Config\config.cfg`
Check on cpu usage, use cpu-z, check on core speeds beeing stable and high (you might need to google for your cpu core speed). Game is single core mostly, so only checking cpu load isnt any helpfull.
Also your gpu driver is quite old, there is a newer one, try to update.
Apart from those i have nothing for now. There is nothing pointing to the issue based on what you gave.
quiet gale
@steady topaz I updated my driver and the issue is fixed now 😄
cedar hull
Okay so I did some experimentation. I reinstalled the game and actually let my gforce experience optimize the game. For some reason this improved things somewhat. I am still having issues but... they seem less. Not sure why given gforce put things on ultra.
My CPU is still running only at low percentages. The interesting thing is my GPU is using mostly the 3d feature (task manager shows this). Also interesting is that in stage one, with only a few enemies it's still running at 80% and doesn't seem to change based on graphics settings. Thirdly, the GPU actually drops down to more reasonable percentages far later in the game.
That's when, usually, there's more on the map as well as lot of particles given you're a god and annihilate everything in the span of seconds. I'm not sure why my GPU will drop in percentage of use at this stage... and not during the early game... when there's basically the same amount of entities in the game... Same goes for my frame rate. It'll tank periodically durring early stages... but not as much in later stages.
I have no idea what's going on here. I still haven't gone back to previous driver installs, but... yeah. I'm not sure if I'm going to do that (reinstalled my current drivers. Not sure if that contributed to the slight improvement in performance).

Anyone have issues where once they join a multiplayer game, the command just continually rolls?
I watch the control prompts and they are gamepad prompts, unless I don't touch the gamepad. Then they change to keyboard prompts, and the roll action is continually triggered when off of cooldown.
wheat merlin
OK turns out it is due to accepting a game invite from Shift+Tab steam interface.
Is there no way to join a friends game other than that? o_o;
steady topaz
@quiet gale open the console ``+ctrl+alt` and record what it says when this happens. Not hure what the deal is, but i am suspecting your antivirus sfotware or in extremly rare case - hdd malfunction.
@wind heath @wheat merlin there is no any cental server. This game is p2p - whoever hosts the game - becomes the server for others. If something wrong with his internet, not only on download, but also on upload speed, and not only with speed but also with ports and networking he uses to connect to all the clients - clients expirience desync and other kinds of malfunctions.
@wind heath if this ^ isnt what you asked for - its not lag, its fps drops, tottaly different kind of issue. Pls specify and describe the issue in details, step by step.
@wheat merlin its possible that you or someone to whom you trying to connect have some issues with relay servers that steam provides for theyr features, like friend invites. You will find other ways to connect in this message: https://discordapp.com/channels/417739215355510784/559902278018924557/724218038651453511

So here is the step by step explanation. When i first start up the game, everything is very smooth and there are no problems for the first couple of minutes in the game (Im playing singleplayer). After that it feels like the game has slowed down considerably and it becomes unplayable, the fps is really low and when i move my mouse then the movement gets picked up too late too. When i then quit to menu and start another run these issues are there from the beginning of the run. These issues only go away for a few minutes when i close the game completely and then open it up and start a new run. What is weird too, is when im in the main menu after these issues come up, even navigating the mouse in the main menu is laggy, but not then i freshyl start up the game. Thats why i think there is a fix, because it runs perfectly the first couple of minutes.
steady topaz
@wind heath Laptop? (pls include @goo)
wind heath
@steady topaz no pc
inner anvil
do you have xmp enabled?
wind heath
@steady topaz and for clarification, like a year ago i didnt have these issues with ror2, i could easily go for 2hr runs with good fps
@inner anvil what is xmp
steady topaz
@wind heath Check the temps on gpu and cpu. Enable fps counter from steam overlay, check the temps at the beggining of your game and when you get framedrops. If you having framedrops and your gpu/cpu is staying at 80-90°C and doesnt go higher (or below 80 significantly) - let me know.
@inner anvil @wind heath xmp isnt related to this issue
inner anvil
I mean yeah it could be thermals but xmp is known to cause issues as well as of recently
wind heath
@steady topaz ok ill try that, where do i check the temperatures ?
steady topaz
@inner anvil it isnt related to performance, xmp goes for crashes related to critical memory read/whrite errors
@wind heath welp, you gotta find what fits you mate, i cant suggest one or other soft for that. Google for gpu/cpu temp software and use any that fits your preference. They all do the same thing, but the interfaces and how you install it - very different.
As far as i am aware there is no easy way to get gpu temp from windows features only.
wind heath
@steady topaz ok, ill get back to you when i checked that
steady topaz
Ill answer as soon as i get close to my pc.
wind heath
this is before i start the run
these are the stats when it becomes really bad
i checked the fps, and they were at 60 all the time and when the lag happened they dropped to 20-25
and for the first picture the left bar of stats are the current ones
@steady topaz
steady topaz
@wind heath Thats thermal throttling on your gpu, you need and i am mean NEED to clean fins on your gpu radiator. Check that all ventilators on your gpu are spinning, there might be a jam, this is very bad.
Your situation is tottaly bad, 78 celsius on startup isnt any close to normal. And 95 is maximum that your gpu can handle, after it reaches 95c it goes in self defence and lowers its own performance to protect itself from cooking out.
quiet gale
@steady topaz The console says nothing in particular; just that the loby was successfully made.
My antivirus is just the standard windows defender
I switched off windows defender and tried again and still got the issue
wind heath
@steady topaz omg i found 2 big chunks of dust in my fan, it might not have worked at all
Gpu-fan*
steady topaz
@wind heath So it is thermal throttling then.
Suggestions for cleaning:
Google before doing anything, gpus arent sturdy enough to tolerate impacts, metals or even dust.
Unplug pc completly, pull off syntetic garments, touch grounded wire or metal pole of your fence to discharge static. Static might kill your gpu in one zap.
Unlock gpu lock on pci-e connector, unplug your gpu, unlock locks on power cables on your gpu and pull it from pc case.
Dont use water or any cleaner. Only air and soft brushes, painting brush does the job well and canned air is a great asset.
Blow the air thru fins, dont blow on gpu fan/s, it might damage them. Brush fins of fans from inside, dont remove fans, they are lubricated in specific way. There is no need to brush the axel.
Do not unscrew, unlock, pull or hit coller (metal fins thingy) you can unlock its plastic cover, but dont go further. This will break thermal interfaces from cooler plate to your gpu microchip case. I think you never changer thermal interfaces so its best not to break it, however if you're confident enough you can google on how to apply thermal paste on your particulr gpu. In this case you have to remove cooler. Once you removed the cooler - you can clean it better, isopropil alchogol does the job, dont use water. You can skip this step if you're not confident for wet cleaning and thermal interface applying.
Assemble it backwards: Cooler, cooler cover, Pci-e slot, lock, power cables.
Run the program you used for tmps meashurements and check that when you have nothing running your gpu stays at low temperatures, below 40 atleast. Check that all gpu fans are running. If not - give this gpu to someone who knows how to handle pc repairs, changing the fans isnt an easy task to new users, but you can find the info on how to do so too.
@quiet gale Not shure if i can help with that, i havent seen such behaviour before, need more info. That vid with console could help.
wind heath
@steady topaz thanks a lot, its all good now, the gpu fan didnt spin because the dust blocked it and my fps are good now !

Anyone gaming with a gsync 4k display able to hold a good frame rate? I just started playing again tonight after not playing for a while and my game starts off at around 70-90 with dips to 30 fps with a lot of effects on screen. I swear it held 120 fps constant just a week or 2 ago.
My issue is definitely not dust like the above person, I have a brand new gpu in my system and other more gpu intensive games run fine.

Ok actually I found in the pinned messages it says to disable vsync in nvidia control panel which does seem eliminate my performance issues. I was under the impression that if you don't exceed your max frame rate on a gsync display, vsync doesn't have any effect. I thought for sure I had vsync in NVCP enabled the entire time I played this game...

Hi everyone. Trying again after reinstalling windows and getting a new GPU, the game still runs trash for me on PC. First level loads and doesn't even get past 30 fps, and a few levels in I see this dropping to <20 effectively making the game unplayable. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can go about debugging why this is happening?
I'm getting the same fps results regardless of running the game at 720p on low or 1440p with everything maxed as well. Have updated gpu drivers, tried the nvidia panel tricks, nothing seems to work
fps in the corner, game is absolutely unplayable 😦

@left forge there is an unsolved issue with high end gpus, like rtx series. try older drivers, it helped to few people, others had no effect or didnt reply back.
@eternal furnace dm me your dxdiag

Thanks for the reply. I think I'll just leave vsync off, it seems to work. I have a 3080 so rolling back the driver will probably bring back the crashing issue due to boost clock spikes.
steady topaz
@left forge ah gotcha. You can set max fps from the game console ``+ctrl+altwithmax_fps 120` command. Or when your game is closed you can edit the config file with same command.
Its recommended to have stable framerate. Overperformance isnt any usefull.

Is that the same as going into the game settings and setting the limit to 120?
But yeah I agree, no need to exceed the framerate of my monitor.
steady topaz
I am not shure actually, never used it that way. I set my games from configs, not from menues.

Haha I see. As far as I can tell from just a few min of testing, it doesn't exceed 120 and does stay within 10 fps with that setting. Probably is working then.
steady topaz
Hm, mine is sitting exactly at where i put the limit.
Anyway as far as it works for you - shure, nothing wrong with that. have fun!

I haven't tested enough to say whether or not fps fluctuations are normal. Had to stop to get up for work. I'll keep your suggestion in mind though next time I play.

I have a question about Risk of Rain 2 and how the engine runs.
I am on a really beefy computer and I have the game set to everything maxed with unlimited FPS turned on.
My system specs are an Intel 10980XE processor at stock settings, 64GB of RAM at 3600 Mhz CL14, and an RTX 3090 Founders Edition.
I am getting a consistent 140+ FPS in game, and that FPS drops down to around 40-50 late game when like a million things are spawning, my issue is throughout all of this my GPU only stays as you can see from the screenshot around 37-48% utilization.
And the CPU only has about 4 or so of it's cores actually have a load put on them.
I have the most recent drivers for the GPU and all of my hardware.
Is my hardware just too powerful for the game to fully utilize? Or might I have another issue that I am overlooking?
eternal furnace
At least you get over 10fps with your 3090, i don't 😂

GPU usage in main menu as you can see is 97%. 👆
Here in game the usage drops to 53% GPU usage. 👆

@glacial ore basically, you use !feedback so the bot can mark it. Then you just type out your idea/feedback (whatever it is). You can add an image if you want, for clarity. Then the bot reacts with 👍 , 👎 and ⛔
👍 means people like this idea
👎 means people do not like this idea
⛔ means people see this feedback as a joke/troll, not specified/complete enough or invalid because devs said otherwise (like with items falling off the map).

Hi guys. Up until recently RoR2 has been working fine, no issues or crashes ever. In the last few weeks, every 10-30min the game crashes to desktop, and a small unity crash windows comes up for a few sec then dissapears. The number in the header is 2018.something (lots of numbers and letters). So far ive tried: Disabling RAM OC and XMP, disabling CPU OC, Disabling GPU OC, Deleting and reinstalling the game (steam) multiple times. So far no success. If anyone knows where the crash log is located it ill gladly post it. Thanks!

I cant really snatch some time to investigate, but it does look like a ram related issue. Not shure if ill be able to check the logs, but i assume you got xmp turned on or other kind of ram oc. If not, and you're shure about that - try older gpu drivers. You will find your gpu model and current driver version in first few lines of outputlog. Open it with notepad.
thin agate
Actually, in anticipation that it could be a ram issue, I turned XMP off, since it was giving errors with it on. Same result, though it did take maybe 10-20min longer for the error to occur vs XMP on. GPU has the latest driver by Nvidia (980ti).
Ill try and see if I can rollback drivers on the GPU, its been maybe 3 updates so far that this issue has been occuring. Ill give anything a shot, love this game

I have a customer support issue, I purchased RoR2 as a gift for a friend on xbox but the code received wasn't regionally compatible and it said to contact the seller. I emailed the contact@hopoo that my friend found but no response for the last 4 hours or so. Thought I'd try here.

who'd you buy the code from? if it wasnt Hopoo, you're probably not gonna get much.

Retailers like G2A are not licensed retailers. Buy the game from Hopoo/Gearbox' website, Steam or the E-shop of your console.

Yoyo, so I've been having some issues with the game, everytime I do the END boss his finally stage crashes my game
I might know why and how, I have the active rockets item and before he steals all my items I spam Q really fast.
Once he takes all my items the game stops working and closes without a crash reported. before it showed me a unity crash report.
Can someone help or is this just unlucky and we have to wait for an update?

I've isolated an issue with ROR2, where if I've run the game, my computer gets locked in the "shutting down" screen. I've at times thought it was shutting down and then wake up the next day to see that it's still in the shutting down screen. Any ideas why running ROR2 would cause a problem like this? thanks in advance.

Have had this issue for the past few days, where we try to play together, but anyone who tries to join me gets this screen, and when I try to join them I get this screen. After trying a random jumble of things like reinstalling, restarting pc, task manager resetting everything, it will work for 1 run, then not for like a day or so. Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks!

I had an issue like this on console, except there weren’t any of those menu screens at all. Trying to exit the lobby would give you a disconnect error and send you back to the empty room.
It only happened once though

It only happened once, the other times it was just fine.
So I didn’t fix it, really. It just stopped happening.

Having issues joining VC as well is there any fix for this??? Only this server having an issue

@split venture I was having the same issue. It started last night and it was an issue for me this morning, honestly just wait a few hours and make sure you log out of discord on all device except main Device. After those few hours are up, what I had to do was furiously mash “join VC” and then for some reason it just let me in. I have no idea what caused it or what fixed it, I’m just letting you know what worked for me when I had the same problem
Also sorry the message was so long, I didn’t know if this server had a 5 min slow mode or 5 second and I didn’t wanna chance it lol

@carmine arrow <@&559786374228738069> Urgent Issue:
The server may be blocking others, (including myself) from connecting to the Voice Channels. I tried a variety of things already to fix it but no luck (even left the server and jumped back in (and waited the 10min again). I looked online and it sounds like others with a recent issue too... it could be an issue with the server settings. I found the following potential solutions found on the forum linked below, hope it helps.
- server has verification level sets to Low, or....
- turn the “Moderation Level” UP. or...
- lower down the Moderation from low to none

hey guys.. i really hope alot of u devs see this bc id be really interested to see it done for the game.. cross platform gameplay.. I dont know that its for sure possible, but i have an idea as to how to do it, similar to how minecraft does their bedrock edition friends list cross platform.
On computer; Have it do the steam login and load, and give a secondary "login" once loaded and the game boots up, that offeres to make an account with you guys, under a different preface, to login to a online connection platform.
On Xbox; Be logged into an XboxLive account (could possibly be regular account.. i think this method would allow you to bypass the "Needing Live" thing xbox has going on..), and give a secondary "login" once loaded and the game boots up, that offeres to make an account with you guys, under a different preface, to login to a online connection platform.
once logged in, on both;
you would have a "RoR2" login/account screen overlayed onto the camera, that is like a friends list, that has a 4 digit #/^/& whatever number to remember it by.. then once an account is made, can be added from either platform, and connected to as a "side party" friends list.. The webserver can then make a game party, invite whoever to the server, and get the game setup with the game load information. when the players click play, it sends the server information to however you guys choose to "start loading the game" in the actual game itself, the game then grabs that information, starts loading the game, and bam.. connected to a world, created by a subserver, that happens to connect eachother to a singular game.. I think thatd be a win in the communities oppinion..
Side Note: - I will not be held responsible if you guys use this subserver to "steal peoples information". Id like to think you wouldnt, but must be said none the less. If you guys decide to take peoples information secretly from the subserver, I will not be held responsible for your guys choice to take that information. (quick interjection, to make the logins, best way i thought of was just have it be like a "(name)( autogen #-__-)" - wanted password. Login created.. no need for info.)
Anyways, thats my idea, if its created, and the company makes a GOOD amount of money off this, i will only ask for 7.8% of the total money gained due to this beautiful idea..
Good luck to you all, i hope the journey is not as tretcherous as it first appears. -- PLEASE PIN!!- THESE 2 COMMENTS SO ALL OF THE STAFF CAN TAKE A LOOK. I DIDNT RIGHT ALL OF THIS SO IT COULD BE BURRIED IN A WALL OF TEXT xD --
Also, if you chose to sell this idea as a new way for other developers to do the same. i wish to ask for a 18.5% return of the profit made off that endevour. In addition, i will bow my head from any name in the creation of the product, and let you guys take full creation props. also if you do sell it. make sure to include that you take no resposibility for any malicious use of modded versions of the system, or use of intentionally maliciously created webservers being used by the system. Just keepin ya safe.
inner anvil
wait what you're asking for money? 😂
obsidian brook
only if the idea makes them a bunch of money.. if it only kinda succeeds im not gonna rob em blind 😛 and if they sell it, i want some of that money lol.. i gave them the method and the initial idea.. i mentioned it once a while back and it got a good response.. like 48 or something likes in the first 24 hours.. i dont feel im being unfair? xD

Speaking of, I'm having trouble connecting to a dedicated server hosted on my local network and wondered if it's a router hairpinning issue? I used the Docker image and have the ports forwarded from the Docker machine and to the internet. The server shows up in server browser, but I cannot connect using the browser nor via console connect
...OTOH the issue might be that I've done TCP instead of UDP, will check that and see! (🦆 Ninja duck edit: it was TCP, setting to UDP sorted it, cheers!)

Hey, I'm having a weird issue with my game. Randomly my controller stopped being able to bind to the game. I don't use mouse and keyboard and play on controller exclusively. I've had this game for a little over a month and this is the first time I'm having this kind of issue at all. Now I've searched this channel for all instances of this problem and the most extensive help I've seen was from a user named goo. Now I followed all the steps they took with the users they attempted to help but none of those options seemed to have worked for me.
Edit: nvm this jawn work

@thin fossil, We have two known solutions for the topic 'no gamepad binding'. Would you like to view them? (Y/N)
thin fossil

plush treeBOT
@thin fossil,
This issue occurs when Windows is reporting a gamepad, joystick, or other input device providing a non-neutral input. This is usually caused by:
- Having a gamepad, flight stick, HOTAS, pedal, racing wheel, or any other kind of non-keyboard/non-mouse input device plugged in. Simply unplug the device from your computer.
- Having vjoy installed. If you've ever tried to use a GameCube controller with your PC, you probably have it installed. Opening your computer's Device Manager window should allow you to disable or uninstall it.
steady topaz
@drowsy rover @plain tangle Disable ram overclock of any kind. Disable (or set to default values) your xmp memory profile from bios.
You might need to google how to do it for your specific motherboard.
@lyric sapphire enable steam overlay fps counter. Run the game, check what this counter says, if its below 60 - you're having performance issues. If its above 60 - check your mouse software for updates.
Performance issues comes from thermal or power throttling, if its a laptop - clean the ducts, fans and radiator from dust and fibers.
You can tell if your gpu throttled down if you check the temperature. Ushually 80*C is where gpus start to slow down. If your temps staying at this point or close to it - its throttled.

Oh shit I forgot about XMP

Hi i'm having an issue with the game crashing randomly without the crash handler being opened, the game simply shuts down (during the run i have no issues of FPS drops or Anything else) i'll provide the crash dumps down below:
steady topaz
@white jungle I didnt dive deep into your logs, but you having similar issue it seems.
Tentativo di accedere ad un indirizzo non valido
This is what your game thinks happened. Its failed to write the data into your RAM.
Try to disable xmp memory profile and any overclock on your ram.
Antiviruses like Avast were causing similar issues for other players i spoke to. But you seems to have none of those. (Yet again i didnt check properrly) Its unlikely, yet you have 172 processes going at the crash moment. There is a possibility that some program messes with your ram.

Hello, i bought the game 2 days ago and it was running fine. Today I launched it and it is running bad with the very same graphical settings. Any ideas?
Like, as soon as I spawn now, with everything on minimum I'm lagging. It used to take like 60 enemies before I started dropping frames
silk bronze
Heyo, a little update. It worked itself out. I took a nap and when I woke up and started it it is fine now. Maybe something to do with the computer restart itself? I don't know. Either way, thanks
steady topaz
@silk bronze Check on your gpu/cpu temps. There might be some thermal throttling going on.
Also note this game is cpu heavy, its better not to run anythig cpu heavy paralel to the game.
silk bronze
@steady topaz Thx, I had it all up and it was running at 40C, so it was fine
most likely is the cpu then
@steady topaz Top right are my average temp/usage
However when more enemies are on screen frames start dropping to about 40
steady topaz
@silk bronze game is single core. (mostly)
Unfortunaly i cant really tell if your game is fine and its just how your pc runs it or if there is some issue going on.
silk bronze
No worries. Thanks for the input anyway

So im still having crash issues, multiple patches later. I reached out to gearbox, and they said to try updating bios. I did that and im on the latest version i can with my current CPU. I also saw some messages in this channel that said to try setting XMP profiles to off. And from what it looks like, it looks like thats already the case. Unless i dont know what im missing. I dont understand why im still seeing random crashes.
I've posted more than 10 crash logs in the bug reports channel, and I haven't ever really been told (even by Gearbox) what the crashlogs even say, so I still don't know whats causing it. and I don't know how to read these crash logs.

I'm not sure exactly what is causing this, but for whatever reason i can't set my game to public. Is there a fix for this?

For some reason my game became super laggy it doesnt matter who hosts the game I get terrible ping, I used to be able to play just fine'

@split copper if one or your friends has an unstable connection, the game can lag heavily due to being p2p
if you moved your setup to a different place, try going back because this can actually matter
steady topaz
@undone solar those settings are on auto, not on disabled.
Your motherboard picks whatever setting it thinks better for your pc.
This causing issues to the game engine.
undone solar
@steady topaz
For load XMP setting, the option I have just says XMP 2.0 Profile 1. Which makes it look like this.
DRAM profile seems to be for 2 different ram cards. Neither of which I actually own. One is a set of (2x16GB) the other is (2x8GB). I have (4x8GB)
Setting the XMP profile is whats letting me enter custom stuff, likely for overclocking.
The description for that says "load as rock verified settings to over clock the specific ddr4 memory and perform beyond standard specifications.
steady topaz
Set overclock mode to disabled
steady topaz
I am not familiar with your uefi
You might want to google on how to disable xmp for your particular motherboard
undone solar
I tried that and can't seem to find any info. Its all just to enable it
steady topaz
can you click on xmp 2.0 profile 1 ? Is there any drop down menu?
undone solar
Either that, or auto. Theres only those 2 options
My mobo is ASrock Taichi x470 ultimate
steady topaz
Should be disabled or manual, i dont think there are motherboards that force you to use xmp on 1 or 2 only.
its better to find a guide, you also can ask your mtoerhboard manufacturer.
undone solar
Doesn't look like there's anything. I found this, and they tried both settings, still with crashes
Seems like auto is basically the default/off. So idk where this really leaves me. I was running the game perfectly until an update or two before the 1.0. Idk why it would just break like that.
steady topaz
Yeah, it does sound like this particular xmp issue. Lots of ppl who reported it mention that they were able to play before 1.0
But we dont actually know what causing those crahes, as devs told us there were no changes to the engine.
I might be wrong here, ask the devs.
undone solar
I did check through one of the logs and searched using the crash reason, and I found a unity forum that says its likely a dev caused issues with the code, but if nothing was changed, they also said it could be caused by a whole host of other random things. I already reached out to gearbox a second time as well, still waiting for a response on my 2nd ticket though.
inner anvil
such a simple thing as xmp not working 
steady topaz
@undone solar I've contacted more than 100ppl from this channel, and never ever gearbox solved anything 😐

I wonder if I may have something to do with the amount of ram in systems? Because I do have 32gb.
No
But gearbox said to give them a dxdiag thing.
I ask that too. It contains info about your hardware.
@undone solar
undone solar
Yeah I sent it and they didn't really mention much about the results there. They asked for the output file, and then is when it got lost in my email and I didnt respond.
Basically it was just update directx, windows and drivers.
If you're able to understand dxdiag, I can get another one and send it if that can help.
steady topaz
@undone solar its not encrypted. You can read it yourself.
press win+R and type dxdiag into appeared window, execute that command. You will see another windown where your pc info is listed. You can save it to txt file with a button click on bottom right.
But, there is no definitive answers there, just info about your specs.
Crashfiles also doesnt have anything that says - this thing is broken, goggle this for how to fix it.
All that xmp issue comes from game's inability to read or write (mostly write) into your ram. Game needs to save something and it cant. Crash happens after your game done with self check and wrote logs and crashdumps into files. This basically doesnt mean anything specific, its just that we know where this comes from because devs examined dozens of crashfiles and came up with a temporal solution to the problem.
UnityPlayer.dll caused an Access Violation
^ what's game wrote.
I think its xmp issue.
undone solar
Yeah that looks like what I saw. But I mean, I'm hoping that the issue can end up being fixed.
steady topaz
@undone solar
@undone solar Maybe you have the subnautica?
it uses same game engine as ror2, and at the moment of those screenshots those engines were same version. I dont know how its now.
But you should get those crashes there too. Maybe we could get more info from logs of this game.
I cant really say that devs are working on new game engine version, but i am 100% shure - they care about the problem.
For now focus on disabling ram oc (xmp is oc too) It should work for those crahes.
undone solar
I sent a ton of crash dumps, not logs since that's what the pinned thing said to do. But I dont own subnautica. I have raft, maybe that's also the same?
Ive been looking at subnautica. And honestly, it looks like it has VR support, which im getting soon. So if I bought that and it also helps give info on the ror2 crashes, I think it might be worth it
But yeah, I also have been playing sonce day 1. And it was within the past few updates I started getting it. Maybe could be lined up with my crash logs sent in bug reports pc
steady topaz
I cant read dumps atm, it needs Visual studio to read. And i hink devs could not only read it, but also do something more.
Anyway it doesnt contain much stuff for me, pretty much everything is listed in logs wich can be opened with a simple notepad.
undone solar
Ahh I see. Because there is a ton of info in the 10 or 13 or something I sent lol. How receptive are the Devs to pings/DMs? I know most don't like that.
Since the logs are temp files, theyre probably all gone by now.
steady topaz
Well, you're free to ping them all, but i doubt you will get any different info.
Ghor answers whenever he catches some free time. But devs are bisy, as always so i wouldnt be hoping for fast response
undone solar
I'll see if I can play a bit more to get some more files. Then I can when theres a decent amount there.
steady topaz
There is 2 plcaes where logs are saved. Chrashes stay for very long time together with theyr respective logs in separate folders.
You will find them all here:
C:\Users\Zairin\AppData\Local\Temp\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\Crashes
undone solar
Yeah that's exactly where mine are. I checked the other place and didnt find them.
steady topaz
Outputlog gets rewritten each time you run the game. And other place from pinned messages... well, i think its old? Not shure actually, i never had a crash to check that place.
undone solar
Last I checked that one folder, only the one most recent crash was there.
steady topaz
Well, that's about all the time i got for today. ushually i just dm ppl and ask for files to slove the issue there. But i moved into another city and dont have much time for that.
All i can say to you: find how to disable your xmp and ram oc, very likely its gonna solve your crashes.
And what about logfiles - those are mostly useless to collect. I doubt you will get different result. But if you actually get different result - check on first 10 lines of error.log, its the most important part. Maybe you will get something different than Access Violation.
@undone solar shouldnt get deleted by the game as far as i know. Didnt you cut the files from there yourself?
undone solar
I dont think I deleted them. But I sent an email to my mobos manufacturer asking how to disable, so waiting on that
steady topaz
k, thats good. Post the result here when you get an answer on how to turn xmp off. Good luck!

Im having an issue with the game crashing very early into the run
It seems to only happen when i play as artificer with Monsoon and the artifact vengence
i played a different character and it worked fine
but after that run i tried the same combo again and it crashed

Anyone have issues with disconnection during multiplayer? If I host my friend DC's in 10 min or so, but if he hosts same thing happens to me...

I'm getting poor framerates despite having what I think should be a good enough rig, I've looked at a bunch of solutions but to no avail
Im not a huge computer guy but this should be good enough right?
weak rock
what are you defining as a poor frame rate?
steady topaz
@weak rock lower than 60, Also unstable framerate, for example 120-90 is unstable.
@supple tundra plenty enough for max settings.
@supple tundra you might encounter bad performance, try older gpu drivers. Your game should stay at 60fps at max settings on fullscreen in 4 player coop. There might be framedrops here and there when enemys spawn in numbers tho.
supple tundra
@steady topaz Alright thanks for letting me know! Now to figure out how to change to older drivers lol
steady topaz
@orchid flame That's nat problem, direct avoids steam servers, but still p2p. Lan emulation uses other middle point instead of steam, in case of radmin - its radmin server. ushually it works. But sometimes not.
There is alot to it. It might be ISP thing, there is providers that doesnt give you unique ip adress, instead they give you already forwarded ip for 24hrs (session max time) Sometimes you're fine, sometimes it doesnt let data as it should. You still able to use internet and connect to dedicated servers (mmo games for example), but you cant host a server for p2p.
I cant really suggest a solution other than what i already gave you.
Maybe try contacting ISP for static ip. Ushually its a paid option.
@supple tundra so you do have poor performance right?
inner anvil
i have this later into the game as a point of reference
supple tundra
Yeah, unstable fps that ranges from 30-50ish
Do you have any recommendations for which driver I should downgrade to specifically?
steady topaz
@supple tundra https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/152968/en-us try this one, its the oldest that they listed.
I dont remember what version works exactly, so @me after you test this one.
By that i meant that if this one works for you - we found the problem and its only the matter of time to find oldest that works too.\
supple tundra
Alright thanks! Will let you know how it goes
supple tundra
@steady topaz Alright so I just did the first level with everything at Max (aside from bloom because I think it's ugly) while capped at 60
It ranged from 48-60, where most of the time it seemed to sit at 56
It only really dipped to 48 when I was getting shotgunned by the Beetle Queen, which Im assuming has something to do with the affects of her spit balls covering my screen
Either way it's a massive step up from where I was, cheers!
steady topaz
@supple tundra try disabling vsync from the game and from nvidia control panel for this game. Run the game and press ``+ctrl+altit will bring in the console. Type inmax_fps 60and press enter (You will be prompted with this command, might befps_max` i dont remember
supple tundra
I haven't been able to get control panel to work ever since I switched from windows 7 to 10, I tried reinstalling it as well but to no avail
Honestly thought Im pretty content where Im sitting right now though, I just want the game to run decently while also not looking like it came straight from the 90s
steady topaz
Huh, that's wierd.
Well, uncheck vsync from the game anyway. It is known to cause some issues. You dont really need to cap the game at 60, but its recommended so your gpu does not need to run at 100% for no effect, as your monitor is 60hz (60fps max)
supple tundra
If I set the max fps to 120 it typically seems to sit at 103, which isn't bad at all. And yeah I've had vsync turned off, never had any screen tearing issues, primarily just fps. Anyways thanks again! Very content with the results.
steady topaz
Hm, well i am glead you got some improvement, but i am not satisfied with the result. What we did should fix the issues entirely. I am 99% positive your setup should run the game at 60fps.
I have weaker gpu, and same cpu and still able to run the game at 60fps for 3 of my friends with 0 issues. And you should be able too.
supple tundra
Hmmm, well I'm not sure what would fix it then, when I raised the cap it fluctuated a lot but it never dropped below 60, though granted there weren't too many enemies on the screen. Sorry for the ignorance, I've never understood this very well
steady topaz
@orchid flame Before doing anything below - drop your recent output log here. You will find it if you follow (or use this link in the file manager): C:\Users\ YOUR USERNAME HERE \AppData\LocalLow\Hopoo Games, LLC\Risk of Rain 2\output_log.txt
Uninstalling mods? Did you installed them manually?
In case you did - simply uninstalling the game with steam wont affect mods at all. You need to wipe mods manually (or entire game folder)
Save and settings of your gamepads wont be affected.
Case №2 would be simply restart your steam.
Case №3 is rare. You would need to uninstall Microsoft VisualC for 2019 and 2015, both 86 and 64.
And then download and install 2015 ones (for 86 and 64 too): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145 In case installer says that there is already same version installed, but you do not see it in your programs and components - @me

Hey guys. I have a problem where RoR2 fails to start and crashes into some unity error.
I suspect nvidia drivers, because I recently updated them to 457.30 version. It get worse here because I can't really downgrade since my laptop vendor (dell) screwed up big time. I can't install any drivers neither from nvidia site nor from dell site (I tried the one they have suggested there for my exact laptop model). The only option that worked for me is geforce experience and it doesn't allow to downgrade drivers afaik. So I'm kinda stuck here :(
Here's my logs

@steady topaz, We have two known solutions for the topic 'no gamepad binding'. Would you like to view them? (Y/N)

plush treeBOT
@steady topaz,
This issue occurs when Windows is reporting a gamepad, joystick, or other input device providing a non-neutral input. This is usually caused by:
- Having a gamepad, flight stick, HOTAS, pedal, racing wheel, or any other kind of non-keyboard/non-mouse input device plugged in. Simply unplug the device from your computer.
- Having vjoy installed. If you've ever tried to use a GameCube controller with your PC, you probably have it installed. Opening your computer's Device Manager window should allow you to disable or uninstall it.

@grim lagoon this is your internet connection problem.
Game is p2p, no central server. Connection uses steam servers as middle point, Try to join with direct connection.

rare wigeon
I'm having inexplicably bad performance on W10 insider Update--I think it started on build 20153? I've got a 2070 Super and the main menu is sitting at ~65fps on 1440p despite being north of 200iirc before. I've tried updated drivers, old drivers, lowering settings, toggling settings, updating Windows, verifying files, toggling every vsync and gsync option I can find--nothing. Occasionally, performance will return to normal, but it's for the most part stuck in this illperformant state that drops into 40fps during gameplay sometimes.
steady topaz
@rare wigeon unknown why this happens, but its similar to what 1060 users have. Older drivers ushually helps to them.
I dont know how to solve it. Maybe ask the devs, tehre might be some specific configuration or condition that makes this happen with your machine. Devs will want to see crasfiles.

How about rejoining after disconnection?
I've had that work before but I'm trying to rejoin via Steam (ie friends) but the console is complaining "Steamworks lobby join failed"
any thoughts on that?
searching for that error message has literally one result, some /v/ board
recreating the lobby via steam_lobby_create allowed me to rejoin

hey my game keeps consistently crashing but only if i have my browser open not at all when i have no window open
steady topaz
@faint blaze opera?
steady topaz
@faint blaze Doesnt addup. There might be some wierd ram interaction. Or you just think that your browser is related to the issue, where its actually just a coincedence.
There is the issue with ram. Try disabling XMP memory profile from bios. See if this helps.
faint blaze
are those the options while booting?
steady topaz
@faint blaze you better find whats your motherboard model is and then google on how to turn xmp memory profile off on this particular model.
Answering the question - bios is where you get after restarting your pc and mashing backspace, dell, f8 etc (depends on manufacturer of motherboard)
Actual xmp change should be very easy, there is like 3 options ushually, 1, 2 and disabled. There might be more or a filed where you manually input values, or something very odd, where you cant actually disable xmp.
Its better to google 1st. But this shouldnt affect your pc performance much.
faint blaze
alright thank you ill try that out!
