nasa doesn't have that high speed

they have speed in kb

[wide ember]

i manually downloaded the update files now do i just put them there in my game folder or somewhere else?

[lunar gust]

you need to put it inside the folder where BH3.exe is, typically that's just in "Games" folder that's located in the folder from your 2nd pic

[wide ember]

here?

[gilded birch]

yes (since you already manually downloaded the pre-installation package, delete the pre-existing BH3_v.7.3.0[…].7z_tmp files that are already in there)

[wide ember]

all of them?

alright done thanks

[gilded flicker]

thanks

[vital heath]

The game is really on one right now, it's freezing like crazy that I just turned it off and also it won't download the pre-install update, it just says retry.

[gilded birch]

you can try downloading the pre-installation package on PC through a mirror, or use a download manager to download the official mirror (which may reduce the chances of your download being corrupted) #🔌technical-help message

[stoic reef]

not sure if 4 months makes that much of a difference when the games been out for 7 years at this point

sea only came out like 3-4 months before NA and EU. I'm pretty sure the main difference is that southeast asia has way more players than na or eu, maybe as much as all of global but global is split between the two regions competetively

and a bit of a culture difference there too i think

okie bedtime for me now, i see y'all have been doing good holding down the fort

[vital heath]

Where do I download the mirror from? I am on PC and it give me this.

[gilded birch]

check the linked message in my message above

[vital heath]

Thank you very much.

[upper parcel]

@drifting wyvern did you play in EU/NA or in SEA in the past?

"Honkai Impact 3" is the SEA client

[drifting wyvern]

in laptop i use europe

[upper parcel]

Well, you downloaded the wrong client

You can select the region when downloading from the website

[drifting wyvern]

should i download it on website?

[upper parcel]

Yes, can also check out the custom launchers in the pins here if you're interested

[cunning birch]

preload data already? neat

16gb? i was expecting more with all the new stuff theyre putting in v2

[drifting wyvern]

gosh

[upper parcel]

On Android you need to change your region in the settings

Assuming it's in an Asian country rn

(I dunno what that translates to though )

[drifting wyvern]

ah my bad,it says "this item is not available in your country"

I'll try setting it up now

[cosmic lion]

You could just manually download/install the glb APK (check the 1st pin in this channel)

Just remember to use the same link after MT start to get the new ver. APK

[drifting wyvern]

thanks for the information man, I'll try this later

[odd wedge]

If you want to use Google Play Store to install the game (convenient for future as well):

1. Use VPN to non-SEA country (USA, UK, EU, India etc.)
2. Create new Google acc

I think you need to set a payment method to properly set it to that country. You can remove it right after.

Long time since I did this I kinda forgor

[gilded hare]

do we know when will the mac client release

[odd wedge]

I don't think they will

But someone just shared to me how they could play on Mac not long ago one sec

[gilded hare]

i did see a screenshot for it though

lemme see if i can find it

#🎮honkai-chat message

here

[odd wedge]

PlayCover

Holy shit?

Okay ignore PlayCover, I'll keep up with news later

[gilded hare]

lol

[gilded birch]

it says part 2 will be available on mac, so that could mean it could be as early as this thursday

[floral portal]

is there a method to preload on mobile without loggin in

[gilded birch]

no

[floral portal]

eww

complain to cs

[gilded birch]

the preload on mobile isn’t that big anyways iirc

[floral portal]

slow internet moment

[gilded birch]

only preloaded like less than 2gb for me

[gilded birch]

rip

[floral portal]

well, now to complain to CS

[odd wedge]

Can't say for sure, CN v7.3 no mac yet

[light inlet]

Do I have to extract the files or just put it?

[stoic reef]

just put it, do NOT extract

[light inlet]

I have downloaded

[stoic reef]

the launcher will extract and verify the files

[light inlet]

Ok thank ypu

[stoic reef]

thats why it says right below the download links DO NOT EXTRACT

[light inlet]

Oh shit I missed

[stoic reef]

lol its all good, it can be easy to miss

[cerulean oasis]

Hii

I wanna ask something

I can play with my hoyo acc on steam Clint?

[stoic reef]

Unfortunately thats not possible. Steam version uses steamID to login and cant use your hoyoverse account with it (same goes for steam accounts, its impossible to convert those to hoyoverse accounts to use outside of steam)

[cerulean oasis]

😔

It's ok tyyy

[stoic reef]

I'd recommend asking for the ability to link steam accounts to a hoyoverse account in the version feedback surveys, if enough people ask for it then they will probably figure out a way to make it work

[cerulean oasis]

They didn't mind to make it possible on future?

[stoic reef]

if they are working on making it possible in the future they havent announced anything about it

[cerulean oasis]

Yeah

[cerulean oasis]

Ihope that happen

[stoic reef]

me too

[cosmic lion]

if you want to play with you HYV account you still have the other options (Official Launcher/EpicGames/GooglePlay)

[odd wedge]

Should I enlarge those words?

[stoic reef]

honestly idk fam, they bold, italicized and have like 6 stars around them

it might just be their location in the faq

maybe putting it before the links with the rest of step 4?

[odd wedge]

Aight I'll see

[cosmic lion]

tbh when they announce it, they only said, "its coming soon" and the image said something like "wait for the official announcement for the release date"
sound like its going to be later to me , but could just be waiting for approval on the store too

[odd wedge]

Yeah

I want to bet on it

[cosmic lion]

@odd wedge@stoic reef@gilded birch

[cosmic lion]

well because the "msg" is mostly for PC users... probably use MD to highlight with color(?
like here #🔌technical-help message (only on PC you can see the the colors )

[stoic reef]

yeah thats what it sounded like too, if they were going to release it in 7.3 they would have said 7.3 and not part 2 imo. so could be anywhere in the next 7 years

though i hope its soon because theres going to be a never ending "mac version when " until they do it

[stoic reef]

[stoic reef]

hmm maybe that would help too, or none of it will and people will be stubborn and "if i didnt read it before im not gonna read it now"

[upper parcel]

dw, reading skills are lacking in other channels too

[stoic reef]

mhmm its pretty rampant

[cosmic lion]

with diff you can make it look like this

[odd wedge]

Google Drive being dumb

[stoic reef]

mhmm, ever since i found out about it i wish it didnt quote box it tho tbh

but it is what it is

[cosmic lion]

yeah you can only see the highlights on the code blocks

[odd wedge]

sorry guys reuploading

This is the second time it did this for this specific file

i am not caught up with any games i play help

[stoic reef]

mhmm, i like the coloring idea but i just dont like the quote box, it makes the whole thing need to be in a quote box or none of it idk how the bot likes pure quote boxes now that i think about it. but i think just making it like twice as big would work, or at least let us meme about it harder

[odd wedge]

I would colour in a heartbeat if not in quote box fr

[stoic reef]

life be like that

i had to quit a few gatchas cuz no time for em all

[odd wedge]

I only play HoYoverse games 😭

had to uninstall forza cuz no space orz

[stoic reef]

Samesies, plus arknights

havent played genshin in years and i decided to wait for star rail to cook for a while cuz i cant be spending 30+ minutes a day on that in addition to hi3 in addition to everything else i have to do

Hoyoverse sell us a time machine plz so we can play your games

[odd wedge]

miHoYo pls do a SAO move so we get stuck in a game for years escaping reality and live on government money in a hospital's life suppor- haha what

[stoic reef]

at least grinding in a video game rewards you

[cosmic lion]

i play HSR story once it release, so for the rest of the month I use the auto-battle while playing hi3

[upper parcel]

For a moment I had a heart attack
I thought you were "autobattling" in HI3

[odd wedge]

Yeah I'm auto-battling

5. Run the launcher as usual.

[stoic reef]

yeah the auto battle system is really really amazing, i love hi3 lite too, has saved me literal days of my life by now i think

[strong thistle]

[cosmic lion]

[cosmic lion]

i remember when Lite was just a "limited time" event

[odd wedge]

When did we apply LITE again?

I forgor if it was v4.9 or v5.0

or neither cuz i have the forgor

[stoic reef]

i think thats when it was forever put in, but the first mention of it was 4.4 #hi3-twitter-feed message

but yeah i remember how happy i was to see that. fossils strong

[upper parcel]

Damn, the daily mats whatever was probably tough

Or did it not exist yet?

[stoic reef]

oh no daily mats was a thing, every game thing that lite covered was a thing

[upper parcel]

[stoic reef]

just took like 5-20 minutes depending on how sweaty you were

[cosmic lion]

iirc Lite become permanent when elysia release... so 5.0 or 5.1~

[stoic reef]

i was happeh that i could do my asterite levels in like 17 seconds iirc but had to do them 3 times plus others
and rotating days on what you got when so some things were gotten depending on teh day of the week so had to play every day

damn now that i check, i've been fighting honkai since 2.8 but enough off topic for me tonight

[cosmic lion]

yeah when to upgrade equip you need x materials, you could not use another, even though its function was the same just for another equip

[cosmic lion]

found it, 5.1 #hi3-twitter-feed message

[strong thistle]

[odd wedge]

AH YES SYSTEM OPTIMISATION

[lunar gust]

ah yes the times when you had to clear MA floors without LITE

[stoic reef]

took ages compared to now

[olive iron]

this is the predownload right?

[stoic reef]

yup thats right

for pc that is, not mobile

[olive iron]

i always have problem if i download from launcher so ill use that

[stoic reef]

okie, i'd also recommend trying one of the custom launchers in the first pin if you havent yet, they handle downloading/updating the game much better

[olive iron]

im using collapse launcher but delta patch always mess up because mihoyo change something on the run, and the dev also have works to do when mt going so, ill just use the big file one

im also on the same armada with neonnyan btw 😂

[stoic reef]

ah yeah i gotcha, hope the manual download goes through! you can also try downloading the manual download with an internet download manager (like IDM) which downloads large files like that more... stably? more stable whatever that word is lol

[odd wedge]

Haven't heard from neon in a while

[stoic reef]

yeah, seems like they've moved most of their time in the collapse discord but they still come in here occasionally. hope they're doin ok tho

[worldly cipher]

Green Luna and blue Slothy when tho

[stoic reef]

too many greens plus im too busy, more like yellow hero when

[drifting ledge]

i cant log in to IOS honkai (via ipad) but i am able to tap options. do i re-install? other apps and games are working fine but not honkai

[lost venture]

Options? I assume this is a connection issue mate try this
#🔌technical-help message

[lost venture]

Outside of electricity bill a 1660s is one of the popular hardware in the steam poll or whatever thing per month, 1060 is the most iirc but yeah it should handle most things for now unless you need to do shit like heavy gpu related shit
Idt that video editing/solidworks/ai training/coding are gpu more on cpu heavy there so prob can run medium or high tbh on most lodern titles

[true olive]

hey guys

so its been a really long time since i played HI3 but im interested in trying HI3 2nd part

is it gonna be in a new client or is it just a really big update ?

[lunar gust]

it's an update

ver 7.3

[true olive]

ah ok,thanks

also im using collapse launcher for my HI3

do you know if thats still gonna work?

[lunar gust]

should yeah

it's just a regular update from the tech perspective

[true olive]

i saw the pinned message for 7.3 update

is that the same as downloading directly from the collapse launcher?

or should i download the one from github? im clueless

[lunar gust]

if you are already using the launcher, just update as usual, nothing extra needs to be done

[true olive]

Ok thank you very much

[dense aspen]

ever since i pre installed the 7.3 resources on my phone my hi3 has become laggy. it freezes during combat and things load slow

[lunar gust]

sadge, perhaps wait until tomorrow and check if the issue remains

[dense aspen]

yeah. idk why it’s lagging, it never does

[lunar gust]

I've heard of similiar things when GI pre-download happened

in one of the versions

was also on mobile only iirc

[drifting ledge]

lol ive restarted the router and it works xD thank you

[short void]

hi does anyone know how big the game is rn? on mobile my phones storage is a bit um you know

[cosmic lion]

We still don't have the 7.3 size, but should be a couple of gb more that the 7.2 that you can find here #🔌technical-help message
Still, in here you can find Part 2 recommended specs so the game is going to aim to those
#🔌technical-help message

[short void]

oof 25+gb time to say goodbye to genshin

[dense aspen]

does this count for the pre-download stuff? if you ore-downloaded stuff what happens?

[odd wedge]

That is v7.2 fresh install size only

Pre install means you add the preinstall file size on top of it until you update the game

[dense aspen]

oh ok. so when i have to update the game tmr its not gonna take as long?

[odd wedge]

Correct 💯

[silver urchin]

these spec are wild

@stoic reef Do you think it'd trigger the system for shared accounts if I included a receipt for someone else's account top up in the HoYo Support form? Apparently, that's what my friend is concerned about as they can't pinpoint the receipt for me yet.

[stoic reef]

That I don't know. If It does trigger anything then it would look sus I think unless you claimed ownership over both accounts but I don't know for sure if it'll trigger anything, on one hand people have alt accounts and they know that and that's fine behavior but on the other hand it's a little weird if your spent on two accounts and presumably lost everything for just one of them. All I do know that account sharing is against TOS and tbh talking about breaking TOS is against the server rules, I didn't say anything earlier because it's kind of impossible to talk about your issue without bringing it up but since we've already said what has to happen id recommend not bringing up the account sharing part when talking about it (feel free to dm me with questions like this though, I still want to help as best I can but discord server rules are still rules)

[silver urchin]

I'll keep that in mind, thanks for the reply.

[stoic reef]

Np and still the best of luck, I hope you get it back

[silver urchin]

ty, although i prob won't

[tidal marsh]

epic pc client receives updates at the same time as a regular client ?

[stoic reef]

it should yeah, the epic client just uses the regular pc launcher tbh with a tiny extra bit to make the epic web store work for top up

[tidal marsh]

ty

[stoic reef]

if you have any problems you can even do the regular pc manual download stuff for epic too :3

[opaque spade]

when i try to update the game it says "failed to replace files" and i cant find anything about it

[stoic reef]

you mean something like this?

[opaque spade]

yep exactly

[stoic reef]

first try closing the launcher, deleting the file listed in the message and then restarting your computer

[opaque spade]

ok ill try that

[stoic reef]

and if that doesnt help i'd personally recommend using one of the custom launchers in the first pin, they dont have this kind of stuff and in general handle updating the game much better than the regular one and have nicer options like the ability to change some settings outside of the game

[opaque spade]

it worked tysm!!

[stoic reef]

Nice!

[brittle hedge]

Hey my pc install is stuck on verifying game resources for a while is this normal?

[cosmic lion]

it will depend completely on your pc and storage specs, in avg is like 5-10min for most users, but for slow hdd can take like 30min

[brittle hedge]

I have an ssd

And usually even much bigger games like gta 5 take less time to verify

[upper parcel]

And for how long is it stuck? Keep in mind SATA SSDs are a lot slower than NVMe ones

[brittle hedge]

It's actually taking longer for this than it took to actually download the game

[upper parcel]

Okay, that's weird

[brittle hedge]

I'd say like 10-15 mins by now

[upper parcel]

Well, wait a bit more and come back if it doesn't finish

Afaik it could be CPU-gated as well

[brittle hedge]

Yeah probably

Ok i tried restarting the launcher

And now it's showing me an option to download the game again

And when i click on it, it days games file download error

[earnest shale]

Sounds like your update got screwed; I would wager a clean reinstall will fix it

[cosmic lion]

yeah that sound like the download was corrupted you can

• try again the download
• manually download the file #🔌technical-help message
• or use a custom launcher #🔌technical-help message

follow any of those

[brittle hedge]

No this isn't an update

Clean install

First time downloading on pc

And i tried downloading again too

[cosmic lion]

its the same, the updates just redownload the game

[brittle hedge]

Same thing

[earnest shale]

Isn't the game update being deployed literally as we speak on SEA

Not sure how that interaction works for an initial install during patch day

[brittle hedge]

Oh i see

[cosmic lion]

not yet #mt-countdown

[brittle hedge]

Should i just wait then

[earnest shale]

Orly, SEA getting the update way later than usual it seems

Well anyways, your install got screwed regardless, doesn't hurt to retry unless you have bandwidth limits on your internet plan

[cosmic lion]

if you want, you still can download the file from here #🔌technical-help message
once the update release, you can copy the file to the install path and its going to "skip" the download

[brittle hedge]

Yeah retrying agaun

[brittle hedge]

Yeah if it doesn't happen this time I'll just do a manual download thanks

Hopefully that fixes it

Or I'll just stick to mobile lol

[cosmic lion]

well if you are installing the game, you are right now installing 7.2

you better wait, because, like i said before the update just "reinstall" the game

[stoic reef]

^ the 7.3 update file is like 16 GB

[brittle hedge]

Oh

Well then I'll just wait till tommorow

[brittle hedge]

Oof

Thanks for the help

[stoic reef]

well part 2 is starting so lots of stuff getting replaced and yeah normally i dont recommend waiting as a solution but if you dont have the internet for it you're basically double downloading if you installed right now and then you'd be unable to play in 5 hours when maint starts for SEA

[brittle hedge]

Nah it's fine thankfully I don't have bandwidth limitations, honestly it's 2 am here and i was about to go to sleep anyways lol I'll just download it all together tomorrow

Also

Is it like

13 gb + 16 gb or just 16 gb

[stoic reef]

if you wait till tomorrow the 13GB download will instead just be 16GB. if you installed now it would be 13GB now and then 16 tomorrow when it becomes version 7.3

so just 16GB for pc if you wait, also if you dont have a problem with it i do highly recommend the custom launchers, they handle updating/installing the game much better than the regular ones but this is just me plugging them, its fine if you dont use em :p

@cosmic lion I hope your internet behaves tonight

[cosmic lion]

just right now finished the 7z download so i just have "half" of the game ready

[stoic reef]

nice!

[cosmic lion]

i just hope i don't have issues on mobile (SD 675 )

[stoic reef]

tbh the cn version bh3_data folder is 50GB so a bit less than half i fear but i forget how much it actually downlaoded and i hope its ultra compressed

thats full install of course

[cosmic lion]

Well, I meant more like it's the maximum I can download now, the rest will be ingame once mt ends

but yeah im doing a clean install on both

[stoic reef]

oh yeah i gotcha, and yeah i was gonna say probably best to minimal install if possible and work on the rest later or something

maybe not but either way its gonna be a chonky download

[cosmic lion]

yeah i do that for clean installs, if not im going to play like one day later on PC

[stoic reef]

true

[cosmic lion]

well tomorrow I have to go "repair" a PC, and they have fiber there... so if i have to stay for many minutes i could just download the rest there

[stoic reef]

well if the fix takes longer than like 10 minutes probably you can do i there

[silver urchin]

is it possible to pre-download on mobile?

[stoic reef]

yes, its in ai chan phone

[silver urchin]

yeah just found it, ty!

[stoic reef]

np!

[glacial mirage]

If u change the FPS cap when not in battle from 60 to higher does it cauz prblms?

And is it even possible through registry only

[lost venture]

No? Though the boss does fight kinda.plays out a bit different from 60 vs 120 well If you are following certain strats but otherwise it's the same for most people

Hgihee than 60 is fine

Just reasonable otherwise game will break if is too high like 300

Cause I assume the physics are tied.to fps

Like most games

[vague summit]

When does the update arrive for SEA?

[lost venture]

#mt-countdown

[dusky hound]

how do I make honkai run in 3440x1440?

[stoic reef]

hold shift while clicking launch in the launcher, should bring up unity settings and i *think that has higher resolution options

[dusky hound]

yeah but sadly when I press play it doesn't get applied, still 2560x1440

[stoic reef]

ah, i think the in game settings still only shows its max since thats as high as it goes in game iirc

[dusky hound]

I saw it ultrawide on a stream

so it should work

I'll go and ask that streamer

[stoic reef]

hmm, can also double check the registry to see what its set to despite what the game menu says

open registry (WIN+R > regedit > Enter)
Open Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\miHoYo\Honkai Impact 3
go to GENERAL_DATA_V2_ScreenSettingData_h1916288658 and there you can change it/look at it

[dusky hound]

editing the registry, thought so, gonna try

[stoic reef]

the unity thing is supposed to edit the registry too, just like changing the in game settings but i usually recommend the unity settings first since its easier to do for most people

[dusky hound]

nice

Thank you

[stoic reef]

nice!

[dusky hound]

how do u guys get the 7.3 cn cutscenes?

[odd wedge]

Yeah just using one launcher for all, betterhi3launcher very simple

My CN Android client full game is 28.48GB orz

Just installed on new phone last night

my betterHI3Launcher cant detect my game, i already had game installed.

where is your game installed? like where bh3.exe is

i moved to game folder but still.

is the bh3.exe in your screenshot in D:\Program Files\Honkai Impact 3rd\Games\ ?

i cant see that in your screenshot but let me know if thats where it is

[muted ravine]

yes

[stoic reef]

then click download, it shouldnt redownload the game

but if it does then pause it and let me know

[stoic reef]

im really bad at remembering that exists tbh but aye aye! I'll kek on em all that ask about it

[celest tangle]

if I install the launcher from the pin do I still need to download a new launcher for version 7.3 when it updates?

[strong thistle]

@odd wedge

[odd wedge]

[odd wedge]

Nope

[sleek dagger]

Before I download the update, I have free 32GB storage space. It seems like my storage runs out in the middle of extracting downloaded resources, so it stops extracting. Where is the location of the extracted resources?

this popup when i clicked clear download resource on the launcher

[stoic reef]

so the update file itself is at \Honkai Impact 3######\Games and is called BH3_v7.3.0_7cf0cdeb82dd. it extracts into the BH3_Data folder

keep in mind that the total size for 7.3 will be around 51GB for a full installation (will have more accurate number later but the CN version is 51GB)

[cosmic lion]

and that just for install, as the launcher say on the img, you need at least ~33gb (16.2 the 7z file + 16.2 for the unzip process)

[sleek dagger]

yeah i guess i'll just have to reinstall

[sleek dagger]

yeah i recall i have more than 33gb otherwise i wont be able to download the update cuz the game tells me that i dont have enough space

[cosmic lion]

there is still a really small chance that the launcher still start the unzip without space (unless they already fix it ) and fail eventually

[cosmic lion]

Hey @stoic reef i remember that one of the faq had a link to the specs, probably its going to be better update it if you have the time

and i check the website and they update it, but still show the old specs on the download page

[stoic reef]

yeah the pc requirements one, i cant make it give the picture so i'd have to figure out how to type it all out for both regular and notebook versions

~~and make it not take up an entire wall of text ~~

[cosmic lion]

not that one, i remember another... probably the cache one~...
i cant search it im downloading the game on the phone and i cant move from this channel

[stoic reef]

but you're probably thinking of this one?

!faq pcreq

but the pcspecs faq is telling people how to go to dxdiag

oh wait i know what you mean

[cosmic lion]

I forgot that this faq existed

[stoic reef]

its the cache one with a discord message link but yeah should update that one

7.3 Part 2 Recommmended specs!

[stoic reef]

its very underutilized but i updated the cache one to have the new link. Thanks for thinking of that

[summer owl]

How big is the latest game update for mobile??

[stoic reef]

not sure on the exact size because maintainence isnt over yet but its recommended 25GB or more

[summer owl]

Even if updating from current version

[stoic reef]

thats 25GB total game size, not sure how big the actual download is going to be

[summer owl]

Okay thanks

[stoic reef]

np, i could give you a more accurate number once maintainence is over but half the time theres an additional download at the end of/during maint so i cant say for sure until then

[cosmic lion]

wtf... my network is now working at 70mbps
I hope it stays like that, or at least until I finish updating the game.

[stoic reef]

~~quick time to download the next 10 updates ~~

[cosmic lion]

[ebon pewter]

My game just bugged when i have to verify the archives, and now i have to download all the game

[stoic reef]

That means the download was corrupted so it is trying to redownload the file, if it happens again try manually updating

!faq mandown

[grizzled rampart]

HI3 v7.3 Manual Download

1. Close launcher
2. Open folder \Honkai Impact 3######\Games
3. Delete BH3_v7.3.0_7cf0cdeb82dd_tmp file (if present)
4. Download through link below and place in the folder

5. Run the launcher as usual.

[ebon pewter]

i did that too, and just send me the same error

[stoic reef]

same error after manually downloading the file?

[ebon pewter]

yes sir, and don´t worry i just delete the game

[cosmic lion]

the download there still can get corrupted if your network is not stable enough, you could try using a download manager
or just use a custom launcher #🔌technical-help message

[stoic reef]

try one of the custom launchers then from the first pin or use a VPN, the custom launchers handle downloading/updating much much better than the regular launcher so those'll probably work

[edgy prawn]

Hello,
I had to free up hard disk space while unpacking and now this comes up. Closing and restarting the launcher didn’t help. Internet connection is otherwise okay. Does anyone know what’s going on?

[stoic reef]

most likely the launcher messed up the download, or some temporary network instability corruped the download, i'd recommend either trying the manual download steps a few messages higher or one of the custom launchers from the first pin

[edgy prawn]

thx

[ebon pewter]

that's the same error as me

[edgy prawn]

Update:
just deleting BH3_v7.3.0_7cf0cdeb82dd_tmp and pressing Update helped
I have enough space now, so should work

[stoic reef]

hopefully yeah

[edgy prawn]

dang, now I have to wait 2+ hours though

[odd wedge]

CN Android client v7.3 with complete assets for reference

[stoic reef]

so i see its the (or higher) end of 25GB or higher but thanks!

[manic hazel]

@fleet wyvern ask here

[tribal bluff]

This is messed up, happened to me, and now i had to redownload the update again? Goodjob hoyo

[cosmic lion]

at first looks like its going to be like 20GB the min install on mobile, now just need to wait until mt ends for any other download

[clever owl]

How to solve it

[stoic reef]

mhmm im waiting till after maint for proper size but im showing around 19.5GB for basic and 26.5GB for full (assuming my math is right) pretty awesome that its that small

[stoic reef]

first try restarting your pc, that fixes that error about half the time

if it happens again check if you're still getting the same Win32 IO error or a different one

[clever owl]

Ok

[pearl pine]

I have an error too

Pls help

[cosmic lion]

i already give you the answer...

[clever owl]

Fixed thanks

[stoic reef]

np!

[pearl pine]

I wanted answers from here too

[stoic reef]

what did iho say to do?

dont wanna type out a long thing if they said the same thing

[cosmic lion]

in short, retry, if doesnt work, go to the path and delete the file, then follow the 2nd pin last option

[stoic reef]

mhmm thats all correct, i'd add restarting your pc as a quick and easy thing to try too that fixes 10042 errors

so several things that can fix it. retry, delete file if it exists, restart pc, using a VPN is all the ones that i can remember right now

[pearl pine]

i already tried 4 times, all with the exact same error and i already restarted my pc
Now i guess i have to delete that file

[stoic reef]

yup, and also delete any other .pcktmp files and version.txt in that folder

(make sure the game is closed this whole time)

[pearl pine]

pcktmp? Like this file?

[cosmic lion]

yes

[stoic reef]

yup that one. the .pcktmp is the update file

that will get merged into the regular one once it passes verification

[pearl pine]

Ohh..
The last time i tried the file size was 7919 mb, now its 8469 mb, thats a good sign?

(The last time i tried updating)

[stoic reef]

this patch im guessing? but yes thats a good sign, and its also pointing more towards a connection issue being the cause

so if after the redownload its still happening and giving that same error then do the 2nd pin stuff (probably just need a VPN)

[pearl pine]

Well im updating again, lets see what happens now

[stoic reef]

good luck

[lofty cosmos]

What happened

[stoic reef]

game bugged out. if resume doesnt do anything try restarting your phone

[lofty cosmos]

I'll try now

Doesn't work....

This never ever happened before

[glad galleon]

Is that description supposed to be like this?

[stoic reef]

no, report it to CS so they can fix #how-to-contact-cs

[stoic reef]

give me a few minutes to see if i can find what to do for that

and while im looking, when you tap resume what happens exactly?

[lofty cosmos]

It said connect to network but nothing happening

[pearl pine]

Problem fixed!! Tysm

[stoic reef]

hmm, try restarting your phone again and then clearing the cache

Go to settings > apps and then find honkai impact 3

clear cache (Not Data, that'll make you redownload everything if you do)

then try opening the game again and see what happens, if it still keeps happening then it might be a connection issue, try the stuff in this pin #🔌technical-help message

[stoic reef]

noice!

[edgy prawn]

based on my (limited) knowledge, packaging and shipping can be tricky… happens with other games as well

[lofty cosmos]

I try what you tell me just now but nothing fix. My internet also good so idk what is the problem here

[odd wedge]

Not even VPN helped?

[stoic reef]

^ even if your internet is good there can still be connection issues, please try everything in the second pin including restarting router and a VPN

[lofty cosmos]

Nope

[stoic reef]

and switching between mobile data/wifi

[odd wedge]

What VPN did you use?

[lofty cosmos]

Not possible rn

[lofty cosmos]

Proton vpn

[odd wedge]

Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 Warp good option btw

[stoic reef]

but if none of that worked the only thing i can think of thats left is reinstalling the game (rip mobile not having the option to repair before the login screen), that or your network is really unstable atm

[lofty cosmos]

I tried everything I could...
I don't have enough data to reinstall till next month start....

My life suck

[trail lynx]

The game looks prettier but I have to wait...

[stoic reef]

can also try asking customer support, maybe they have a solution that doesnt involve reinstalling #how-to-contact-cs

problem is is that that error message doesnt actually say what the problem is (or more accurately its too specific to know whats causing it) and you've already tried pretty much everything that will fix problems before the login screen

[mystic yoke]

where postp rocessing in settings?

[stoic reef]

you're looking at it

all of that is lumped under the broader category of "post processing"

post processing is just a term like photo filter, lots of things fall under it but its not its own thing though

[cosmic lion]

okay i just finished the mobile basic download... right now 21.78GB and mt isn't over

[stoic reef]

sorry btw, always sucks when people dont wanna listen

[cosmic lion]

because is a clean install probably like 500mb are from the other lang

[cosmic lion]

dont worry

[stoic reef]

probably yeah. i count those in my isntallation size though since someone would need that to open the game to then delete other lang

[pearl holly]

hello, does anyone have a full data manual download link for version 7.3 SEA server?

[stoic reef]

you mean both the launcher update and the in game download (with the CG)

or just the launcher 16GB download

[pearl holly]

I'm not just about to install the game

[stoic reef]

but no one has the full in game download included hosted anywhere but heres the launcher download

[edgy prawn]

I just realized that I have “Americas” selected in the top right corner despite being in Europe…
is it just because it’s updating or I’ve always accidentally been playing on the American server… or… what’s the significance of it?

[thin hearth]

wellow SEA MediaFire File broken cant extract

[stoic reef]

it happens sometimes during maint when you try to login, just make sure to click americas and change it to europe before logging in. both americas and europe are on the same (global) server

[edgy prawn]

ah alright, thx

so… no matter what I pick it’s the same account, right?

it won’t throw me into a lvl 1 account or anything?

[stoic reef]

well no, if you played on europe and logged into americas, it would start a new account since you can only have one account per server. but if that happens, just log out and change the server to europe and you'll be back in your regular account

its impossible to overwrite or delete a game account

like, literally impossible, cant happen

[edgy prawn]

ok, that’s what I was worrying about, thx

cause that would suck

[thin hearth]

sir SEA MediaFire file broken

[stoic reef]

whats the error message exactly? can i get a screenshot? (and sorry i can only type so fast, i was replying to the person above you)

[edgy prawn]

I’m just afraid now that I always had “Americas” selected

by not paying attention

[thin hearth]

error when extract sorry
even already full download

[stoic reef]

it defaults to americas (or europe) sometimes if you try to log in during maint but its ok, quite impossible to delete an account so just gotta log into the right server to get your normal account

[thin hearth]

sorry no screenshot im trying other link

[edgy prawn]

though I assume the ping might be slightly worse if I’m on the American server

but I never noticed anything

[stoic reef]

its ok, i asked for a screenshot or the exact error message cuz to be honest theres like 4 different things that can go wrong with an "extracting error" and most of the time its not the file itself being broken so thats why i asked. i hope the other download works fine

[edgy prawn]

what makes me worry is “Europe” being greyed out and “Americas” saying “(Recently logged in)”

might just be a maintenance bug

[cosmic lion]

its normal, while the MT is going, the game default to one server, you can only change it once MT ends

[stoic reef]

its greyed out because maintainence is still going on (thats why it says under maintenance) and it says recently logged in becasue it had defaulted to the americas server when yhou logged into your hoyoverse account just now

[edgy prawn]

time ont the “phone” in the bottom right was always my local time though (not sure if it checks local time or server time)

[stoic reef]

but you cant change server during maintenance

[edgy prawn]

ah so that’s how it is

thx

makes me less worrisome

[stoic reef]

yup, everything will be fine i promise, even if you log in the wrong server everything will still be fine lol

[cosmic lion]

Ai-phone use your device time, iirc on your profile is where you can see the server time
but yeah like luna said dont worry

[frank pond]

i get these everytime i update my game. checked pins but my blind eyes wasnt able to find solution. if anyone one can help

[edgy prawn]

a bit offtopic, but I once lost an account elsewhere because I was typing during login …@gmail.de instead of …@gmail.com which somehow was accepted by a launcher but then suddenly not anymore

so I get a bit anxious around such things

[stoic reef]

first try restarting your pc, that fixes that half the time

[stoic reef]

well forgetting the login of an account is something else entirely and something you should absolutely write down the login details for on a physical piece of paper if possible or an encrypted google doc or something because while its impossible for a game account to get deleted, its a very real thing that captains forget everything related to an account and its lost forever in the void

[edgy prawn]

oh no-no, that’s the funny thing… the …@gmail.de literally didn’t exist

it was accepted by the launcher anyways though as my …@gmail.com mail

don’t ask me how

it was the Blizzard launcher and like 10 years ago

pw etc. I never forget

[stoic reef]

oh, must have been funni gmail quirks, people do stuff like that to reroll accounts fast

also blizzard launcher is crazy meh even these days, 10 years ago it barely functioned imo

[edgy prawn]

yeah, I don’t know either how that could happen to begin with

[stoic reef]

i'll make sure to not quote that if you ever come back in a couple of years with a "coming back to the game but forgor everything, how do i get my account back"

[edgy prawn]

[stoic reef]

not saying i dont believe you, but i've had people wanting help who have forgotten a staggering amount of info about their accounts

[edgy prawn]

but I’ll stand to my word… I only really use one mail, which isn’t gmail anymore, (uni-stuff aside) for everything and know my passwords by heart

[frank pond]

i lost the 50 50

[cerulean tulip]

[timid garnet]

Hi when i press Launch the launcher just dissapears and then comes back

[brave wyvern]

pls help, this is from the collapse launcher, it keeps on doing that even though I already preinstalled the update, then when I press the "Yes, migrate it" button, it just resets to Install game again

[timid garnet]

ive tried redownloading

[stoic reef]

try restarting your computer and if that doesnt work can you go to your games installation folder and try opening bh3.exe and see if that does anything?

[cosmic lion]

did you preinstalled the game with the official launcher?

if that is the case try to run the game from the official launcher one time, so it create some files, then try again on collapse

[frank pond]

nay. it was still giving out error. had to change 2 to 3 location from vpn to get it done

[timid garnet]

didnt work 😢

For the BH3 is just opened the launcher after a few minutes

[wheat parcel]

Graphic settings: performance is the lowest right?

[stoic reef]

ah yup that'll do it too more rarely

[brave wyvern]

nope, I did it in the collapse launcher

[stoic reef]

kind of a long shot but try clearing the cache? #🔌technical-help message

also are you on windows 11 or 10?

[timid garnet]

well thats weird it only shows Genshin

[timid garnet]

windows 10

[stoic reef]

should be the lowest preset yeah iirc

[stoic reef]

hmm so at that point its not the launcher since the game itself isnt opening either, try closing the launcher and going to bh3.exe and right clicking it and going to properties go to the compatability tab and setting it to compatability mode for windows 8 and also run as administrator

if that doenst help maybe try checking for windows updates to see if theres any windows updates pending?

[stoic reef]

might be a collapse launcher bug, could ask in their discord but if you click keep installing it it should in theory verify your pre-install and let you in

[cosmic lion]

weird, are you using the last ver. of the launcher right?

[timid garnet]

Still wont let me in :((

and i dont have any pending windows update

[brave wyvern]

oh uh I think so

[stoic reef]

let me look around and see if i can find something then

[cosmic lion]

check it just in case, v1.72.18 for stable and 1.73.3 for preview

[brave wyvern]

yep, just updated it to 1.72.18

oh, it still keeps on doing it

[timid garnet]

my launcher also doesnt show the slide thingyy

[silver urchin]

delta patch is broken smh

[cosmic lion]

if you installed the file with a old ver. could be that installed the files incorrectly
i would recommend to make a clean install if you can, but you can go to collapse discord and ask there if they can help you

[lunar gust]

seems like it is on purpose

at least for now

[silver urchin]

gonna take forever to download 16 gigs with my 1MB/s connection

[lunar gust]

and then some in-game

[silver urchin]

yeah that too

[stoic reef]

and just to confirm, in the clearing cache steps you also went and deleted this folder if its there? C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\LocalLow\miHoYo\Honkai Impact 3rd

in addition to checking the registry stuff

[timid garnet]

let me check

also my HI3 is located in my D Drive

[stoic reef]

i gotcha, the cache would still be on your C:

its in the appdata folder and all that

[timid garnet]

Done

Whats next

[stoic reef]

restart your computer and try opening the game

[silver urchin]

does this work with collapse launcher?

[stoic reef]

yes

[timid garnet]

did not work

[stoic reef]

[timid garnet]

Its a sign to quit im gussing ?

[lunar gust]

can #how-to-contact-cs for further help too

[stoic reef]

well i'd recommend emailing customer support first and let th em know what you've tried already #how-to-contact-cs

[cosmic lion]

it could be a broken install

[stoic reef]

they reinstalled already

[cosmic lion]

[silver urchin]

yes

[stoic reef]

i think

[timid garnet]

i did

[silver urchin]

quit honkai and touch grass

[stoic reef]

thats wonderful tech advice...

[timid garnet]

il try on my phone ig

il unisntall honkai now ig maybe its gonna fix itself when ireinstall in PC

[silver urchin]

it's neon typing!

[thick python]

due to 7.3 changes, we are still working on it and a hotfix patch is expected to be shipped tonight or tomorrow (GMT+7 time)

[stoic reef]

if you have the space for it, its worth a shot trying on your C:

tbh someone else's pc was being hella stubborn with this issue and the only thing that fixed it for them was literally reinstalling windows but thats not really a solution to just go around suggesting

[silver urchin]

tyty

[timid garnet]

[stoic reef]

well.... techincally that is enough space for a basic asset installation if you're curious to see if it'll work but yeah thats not really an option (its 29.5GB)

[stoic reef]

[thin hearth]

this is error i found

[silver urchin]

why did you extract

[stoic reef]

ah that might be the issue, you're not supposed to manually extract

thats why the manual download steps say do not extract at the bottom. winrar has issues like that sometimes, plus manually extracting can easily confuse the launcher so its best to let the launcher handle that

[silver elbow]

What do I do?

[stoic reef]

click check details and send a screenshot

[thin hearth]

use launcher u mean download pc with launcher?

[stoic reef]

use launcher as in you put the BH3_v7.3.0_7cf0cdeb82dd in the games folder (same folder as bh3.exe) and then thats it, just open the launcher

unless, are you installing from fresh and do not have the launcher installed at all?

[thin hearth]

just delete and download new version

im always downloading without launcher version

[stoic reef]

ah i see, try 7z instead of winrar then

[silver urchin]

why is this patch so quirky smh, @dense burrow get your shit together

[stoic reef]

huh?

this patch is actually pretty chill tbh

[cosmic lion]

okay now that MT ended my reinstalls ended
21.8 GB Basic on mobile
37.7 GB Full on PC

[stoic reef]

thanks!

[silver urchin]

you mean there was worse patch than this?

[stoic reef]

well i mean think about it. hundreds of thousands/millions are downloading a sum total of like 15-30 GB at the same time over wildly different levels of network stability and speed all over the world. its 0 surprise that theres always at least a dozen or so that have corrupted download issues

[clever owl]

I am stuck in login screen in pc

[stoic reef]

some people take 12 hours to download the update, then when its corrupted it doesnt work, none of which is hoyo's fault but they all ask for help during maintainence.

[stoic reef]

any error message or just infinite elevator?

[thin hearth]

alright gotta try

[silver urchin]

that's basically me

[stoic reef]

ok, if 7z doesnt help then its a corrupted download, i'd very highly recommend trying betterhi3launcher (from the custom launcher section in the pins) it downloads the game much much better than your browser would so theres less of a chance of it getting corrupted. and its very lightweight and made by one of the mods here

[stoic reef]

mhmm, so its no surprise that during patch day theres at least 12-30 people with issues. bad ones are when theres a clear issue from the servers side but that doesnt seem to be the case so far

[clever owl]

I am stuck here

When i click it does a relogin again and again

[silver urchin]

have you tried pin 2?

PowerVR gpu,

so your phones graphics is notoriously underpowered and sort of incompatible with honkai, best i can recommend is lowering the graphics as low as they can go but other than that and/or reinstalling the game in case it was a broken installation theres not much you can do since your phone is below the minimum requirements on top of having an incompatible gpu

correct, honkai gets downloaded in two parts, the launcher download which downloads the needed basic sound and stuff to get the game opening and then when you click launch and open the game theres the asset download to download all the assets so its a two part thing

so its isntall launcher > download the update in launcher > click launch > download assets in game while you watch the trailer > done

[fast adder]

ohhh tks for the help this is the first time im using pc

[stoic reef]

its np

[stoic reef]

chief, your page file is gonna murder you

[odd wedge]

but but

Fine I'll uninstall ZZZ

?????

[stoic reef]

ai chan wont let me do every possible sip at slothy

apparently 6 is too much

[stoic reef]

attaboi storage is kinda wasted on someone who earlier "didnt have time to play them all waaaah" (have my favorite sip and pretend i was sipping the tea in every possible way without getting bonked)

[odd wedge]

I keep them updated so I don't need to wait 2h when I feel like playing it for like 15 minutes that day

[stoic reef]

you know thats actually pretty smart

no worse mood killer than waiting half a day to update

[dusk wind]

For a while now, everytime there's an ver update I'll ended up here. Whats going with this buggy install -.-"
anyway, Im having problem on this, any idea how get this to work?

restart not working
deleting patches not working
vpn not working

[stoic reef]

when deleting patches, did you try deleting any .pcktmp files in the generatedsoundbanks\windows folder and also the version.txt file?

that fixed it earlier tonight for someone

[dusk wind]

I see, let me try

[edgy prawn]

I hate to manually change the server from [Americas] to [Europe] after the update, in case anyone else runs into that.

[cosmic lion]

GL everyone who will stay helping
i go to

[stoic reef]

surprised you're still up tbh but gn

i'll be going to bed soonish myself, but i dont think anyones gonna die so sleep peacefully :3

[clever owl]

Not working i am still stuck

[stoic reef]

did it let you login again or is it stuck on connecting to network

[odd wedge]

oh for that VPN ezpz

[clever owl]

When i click this mice icon dissappear for a few sec then appear again and nothing happen

[odd wedge]

Yeah use a VPN

[stoic reef]

then yeah you'll need to use a VPN

[stoic reef]

i had it backwards, clearing cache is for if its stuck on connecting to network, not after login

[odd wedge]

I'm comingggggg

[clever owl]

For some reason warp is not connecting anymore what is a good alternative

[odd wedge]

wadahek warp isn't working? damn

[stoic reef]

protonVPN from the 2nd pin is a good one

[edgy prawn]

If anyone else runs into that:
if you play with the controller and you want your attack button to be on [A] and evade on [B] and ultimate on [Y] (as it used to be) — those buttons are used for other stuff and the settings menu complains about that and doesn’t let you. What worked for me is trying to rebind them again after leaving the Settings menu.

[weak herald]

why cant i set mouse keybinds?

was hopeing with new update they would add that

[odd wedge]

huh isn't it default

[stoic reef]

you can do mouse combat, butyou ahve to set it to that in the settings

[odd wedge]

let me check when i actually get into the game

[stoic reef]

give me a sec

[edgy prawn]

I think he means extra mouse buttons.

[weak herald]

its not mmouse keybinds though it just lets you click on things

[silver urchin]

gaming mouse flex

[stoic reef]

you set it to this in the settings? it allows dodging and attacking and stuff from the mouse

[weak herald]

oh thank you ill try that

i hope it works

[stoic reef]

np, and it lets you set side mouse buttons to anything cuz its just a number so its fine with mmo mice

[stoic reef]

defaults still old keyboard till you set the thing to mouse

[odd wedge]

Nice

[stoic reef]

keyboard supremacy

[odd wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/11-gif-27595507

[weak herald]

i perfer the old way but im trying to get my genshin normie friends into the game

[stoic reef]

you know it really is the migratory genshin-ers that will not compromise on attacking being set to left click

[weak herald]

lol

[stoic reef]

tbh im just happy that keyboard even works well cuz back in my day before the pc version, i was shortcutting a keyboard onto an on screen display on a screenmirroring software with my phone cuz bluestacks didnt cut it even back in 3.5

[fallow sequoia]

I even have internet. But this error kept persisting.

[stoic reef]

usually internet instability can corrupt the download, downloading over browser can help in your case

if that doesnt help though i recommend using one of the custom launchers in the first pin

[paper bobcat]

Does anyone know how to change the graphics to the one before the 7.3 updated?

[stoic reef]

you mean like the UI? i dont know if thats possible

[stable fern]

i'm confused

[stoic reef]

about what? it needs at least 16GB but you only have 6.7 free

[stable fern]

i had more than required amount free, it was downloading normally a moment ago

[stoic reef]

how much did you have in total before clicking download?

[stable fern]

18gb or something

[unkempt vale]

Luna

[stoic reef]

ah thats why, so due to how file systems work, it needs 32 free space, 16 for the download and then it needs to reserve 16gb to unzip that to before deleting the downloaded 16gb, but windows will need 32 free in total to do that

[stoic reef]

[stable fern]

i'll dl it in my hdd and then move to ssd then, thnx👍

[unkempt vale]

Interestingly, my antivirus is now deleting the betterhonkai impact launcher automatically
Claims theres a trojan

[paper bobcat]

Not ui but like when you are in like the elysian realm

[edgy prawn]

(spoilered because it’s from Part 2)
Is there any way to remove the thing in the bottom left corner? I’m playing on PC… so I feel like it shouldn’t be there…

[stoic reef]

[stoic reef]

yeah it'll do that sometimes, gotta make an exception for it but windows security gets cranky with it occasionally

[dawn mirage]

can you still not full screen with alt + enter?

[stoic reef]

settings > assist > hide joystick

[edgy prawn]

Thanks!
currently in dialogue, will change after

[stoic reef]

nope, apparently though that switches between keyboard and keyboard/mouse movement

[peak wadi]

As for why it ain't hidden by default when it serves no purpose on PC...yeah idk

[stoic reef]

button mapping maybe? they left a lot of wierd UI choices as teh default

[peak wadi]

Most games don't need to tell you what wasd maps to these days, it's 2024

If people really need to know just put a button mapping screen in the options...

[rugged lake]

are there any menu hotkeys added on pc?

or you navigate with mouse still?

[peak wadi]

This is just "game was developed for mobile and altering it for PC-friendliness is too much effort" syndrome

[edgy prawn]

Maybe something to do with East Asian market? I heard over there they play much more on mobile devices as opposed to PCs

[stoic reef]

oh it doesnt make any sense dont get me wrong just hazarding a guess as to why they thought it would

[dawn mirage]

is there really no way to full screen without the settings

[stoic reef]

shortcut wise not that im aware of

[peak wadi]

Genshin and the train game at least had PC client from the start, so they knew to make it not as jank on kbm while in development

[dawn mirage]

thats a shame, thats the only way I can make my game run smooth

[peak wadi]

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the forced mouse use here is because they just trick the engine into thinking it's receiving inputs from a nonexistent touch screen or something

[stoic reef]

thats entirely possible but they did overhaul a lot of the code files in this update too so maybe not, but all i can do is speculate since i dont work for them

[rugged lake]

hows the new keyboard and mouse combat

any good?

[stoic reef]

lot of clicking cuz hack n slash. i prefer keyboard only tbh

[rugged lake]

how big is the current client now with eveyrhting downloaded

all that is listed in the event details, iirc its 5 PCU

ok. it was kind of confusing since they only listed the pcu requirement on certain drops, not the checkins.

i'll bring it up

[rugged lake]

what does rendering accuarcy mean?

is this same as genshins rending 100% and so on

because here it says low/mid/high/veryhigh

[stoic reef]

yeah it is, dont set it to very high unless you have a 4090 or something

its a huge gpu hog at very high

[rugged lake]

so medium is 100%

?

[stoic reef]

iirc yeah

[spare ravine]

uhh anyone gets this issue where your pity is fully reset back to 90?

[stoic reef]

Profile > account> user center

[shy ember]

I thought the event is the bugging, the story mode too

[fast adder]

wait… invalid account format? what it mean

[stoic reef]

Try repairing at the login screen (red repair icon in bottom left) if that doesn't help please double check that you're device meets the recommended specs. Might have to reinstall if nothing helps and you're above minimum requirements

[rugged lake]

did they touch on rendering systems?

somehow post honkai looks better?

or is it just hte bigger camera FOV

[fickle grove]

ok

[shy ember]

Damn im unlucky person

[stoic reef]

Probably can't use that as a username

[fast adder]

why i used my username account for mobile

[stoic reef]

Your in game nickname?

[shy ember]

So i need to reinstall the game Luna? since it affect the story mode too, (my graphics is so low that it says battery saver)

[stoic reef]

That's not a username, if your nickname has Numbers or special characters then username can't have that

[spare ravine]

anyone has this issue where your pity is reset back to 90? mine was 63 or something and after game drops its uhhh ykyk

[stoic reef]

You can try but your phone is below the minimum requirements so no guarantees

[rugged lake]

you sure its same banner type?

[fast adder]

im player 20712024 that is invalid?

[stoic reef]

No one else has reported that issue, I'd take it up with customer support since they can see your pull history #honkai-fan-art

[spare ravine]

yeah I did some pulls on FoV and didnt get her

[odd wedge]

That is your UID and default in-game nickname.

[stoic reef]

That's default nickname, that is not your username. Username can't have numbers

[shy ember]

[fast adder]

so i forgot, what do i do

[odd wedge]

I'll double check on that

[shy ember]

I have no choice but to quit

[odd wedge]

Can have numbers, probably not space.

[stoic reef]

Ok thanks bestie. I gotta go sleep though

[odd wedge]

What about email?

[fast adder]

thats what i mean, i used email but it says im wrong

thats the only email i have

[odd wedge]

Hmmm

You sure you installed correct server client?

[stoic reef]

Go to profile >account>user center, link email and then use that to log in. Google account login is NOT mean you've already linked the email

[spare ravine]

wait one question is your pity also reset back to 90 after part 2 update?

[stoic reef]

Mine was that before

[odd wedge]

Haven't back read I'm so tired

[spare ravine]

the what

[stoic reef]

My pity was 90 before the update

[spare ravine]

after the update its 80?

[stoic reef]

So if it changed I wouldn't have noticed

[steep radish]

Oh boi here we go again

[fast adder]

stupid ass game if they just added google account…

[steep radish]

[stoic reef]

Used Google account on mobile. Trying to login on PC

[odd wedge]

[cloud spire]

[rugged lake]

it got reset by default

maybe that oculd fix it?

[fair steeple]
