is there a pinned post/megathread/other collection of tips to troubleshoot stuttering issues? I've been trying some of the fixes posted recently but none have worked for me so far. Wondering if there are more. (also, kudos to the dev team for being so active and responsive)

Hey. Is there a fix to missing purple wave particles from Asterius and alike?

#

hey im not able to see the Rail's crosshair while aiming its special, is that intentional?

#

hey im not able to see the Rail's crosshair while aiming its special, is that intentional?
@plain rampart If you mean the circle on the ground, then no, it's not intentional, it should be visible. It's best to F10 it I think.

delicate fossil
#

im having the same issue
@plain rampart do you get any flickering during room transitions? im wondering if they might be related

woeful kayak
#

I'm having issues with black screen. Games starts, music plays, cursor shows, but nothing else is visible. If I click F10 then it captures the screenshot with the game as it should be, but the main game window is still black.
I tried adding launch options /FullScreen=false /NoBorder=true /X=1280 /Y=720 /UseSwapEffectDiscard=true
However, it seems that adding the last one also breaks the sound, it plays normally again if I remove that parameter.
Game worked fine on Nighty Night version, but I had issues with another game since I'm on a relatively fresh install on Windows 10 on an old laptop, so I installed updates and some libraries to make other things work, not sure if that could break Hades though.
Here's my Hades.log and dxdiag.

Hi, i don't know if that's the good chan for that, but since the update i think, my settings are reset each time I restart the game (Like Audio settings or Languages )

#

Hi, after the recent update I'm unable to launch the game anymore. The program comes up but it simply stops responding. I've verified the game cache, upgraded my graphic drivers and checked my visual c++.

@clever thunder we have a fix in the works, sorry about that

#

@gilded ravine did the last update work?

gilded ravine
#

The last time i managed to successfully launch the game was on June 22

crude acorn
#

@woeful kayak we're working on that at the moment

crude acorn
#

@gilded ravine Which GPU do you have?

gilded ravine
#

@crude acorn GTX1080

#

I've ensured that the game is using that gpu as well.

#

Yeah, I just had the "walk through wall of the bedroom" glitch... into the blue screen. still in blue screen.

I seem to have lost sisyphus' contract for release, I think Hades must've hidden it.... I think it's been gone since the update that changed the house contractor I did submit it s a bug report but I thought I'd drop a message in here as well

sharp narwhal
#

@hot rock The requirements for that event have changed - you need to ||have the administrative area unlocked, then have conversations with both Nyx about the admin area, and with Hades about Sisyphus, which may also require you to speak to Sisyphus more than you already have.|| So far we haven't found any issues with the sequencing on that quest, and it's likely you just haven't seen the required conversations yet, though we will double-check of course.

We look at and investigate all reports that we get via F10 at one point or another, so please keep this channel clear for technical issues such as being unable to start the game or experiencing crashes without the bug reporter!

hot rock
#

I believe I had it unlocked and just didn't purchase it in time in the past but I can keep playing and see if any event pops up, apologies for the clog

hearty kernel
#

Not sure where I should post this, but after the new update, I feel like the game is running much less smoothly than before, my framerate feels lower (I can say that it's currently capped at 30fps, but I don't recall if it used to be higher), and more importantly, I've noticed a palpable input lag. The input lag is significant enough that I feel as though I can't really play the game anymore, even after having poured over 100 hours into it prior. Is anyone else having a similar experience?

Edit: If it helps, I'm running on a 2016 Razer Blade: i7-7700HQ, 16GB 2400MHz RAM, GTX 1060.

#

After the update, the game is still choppy. it runs well before the blood price update. Now it is an unpleasant experience to play the game. I have try /UseSwapEffectDiscard=true but it makes no difference. Could you try to fix this problem, or just use the previous code. I think the previous code is even better than this version.

somber pivot
#

Hi, somehow the game stutters badly after the new update. So far i tried:

  • Updating graphic driver to nvidia's latest one
  • Set launch option to: /FullScreen=false /NoBorder=true /X=1920 /Y=1080
  • Turning on / off vsync in setting
  • Verify game cache
  • Restart my pc
    So far the game still stutters, any idea what should i do next?

Oh, and i tried messing around the settings a little bit, whats weird is on 1920 x 1080, whether i set Vsync on or off, fps counter still capped at 60fps. On resolutions below that, if i set VSync off, im getting 300+ fps.
I don't know if thats important, but hope that helps somehow.

#

I can't move up or down and my cursor moving causes lag, I don't know what's going on, I have not been able to play the game since the update

#

I can't remap the keys in keyboard. When I attempt to change a key, it doesn't register any key and the message "press any key" is just keep showing.

I was using the new weapon aspect

Any ideas on why music and sound in general is giving interferences and don't sound clear?

#

@naive moth that's a bug! please report in-game with F10 (you can include a link to your video).

teal summit
#

just fought tisiphone and her dash attack (don't know the name, sorry) reverted her to her original position so she did the same attack from the same point of origin twice. I've fought her before and not had this happen, is it a bug?

ruby ingot
#

the fps is locked at 30 for some reason and runs teribbly even when compared to normal 30fps. turning off vsync does not uncap the fps

weary ravine
#

how do you get the PS4 dualshock button prompts to appear over the default gamepad ones? I heard that simply connecting your PS4 controller will do the trick but it hasn't worked out on my end

sudden osprey
#

yo all these micro patches and fixes

#

my mouse cursor still flickering which is kinda annoying lol

#

tried already what little i could find on the net for this

dim spruce
#

@prime drum if that sound issue happens to you, waiting until a save point, quitting to the menu and reloading should resolve it

#

@weary ravine try using the following:

  1. Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /PS4Gamepad=true
#

@sudden osprey @weak beacon try using the following:

  1. Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /IgnoreGamepads=true
weary ravine
#

@dim spruce hmmm it still shows the default gamepad layouts for some reason, even with the launch options

#

i mean its fine really its more of a mild inconvenience

dim spruce
#

ok thanks for trying we will look into that more!

dim spruce
#

hey @last axle can you see if using the following helps at all?

  1. Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /IgnoreGamepads=true
#

you can also try increasing the DeadZone in the Controls Settings

#

i played today for like 1-2 hours and the save symbol showed after every next room but when I exited and re ru the game a few hours afterwards, it didnt save anything from today and the save was from yesterday

hey @last axle can you see if using the following helps at all?

  1. Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /IgnoreGamepads=true
    @dim spruce Thanks Gavin, unfortunately this did not resolve it. I detached all peripherals and restarted the game, still the same thing whether DeadZone is set to 0 or 100
dim spruce
#

ok thanks for trying we'll look into it more!

#

@molten carbon can you go to this folder \Documents\Saved Games\Hades and see if any** .sav** files in there have a timestamp from your most recent play session?

molten carbon
#

what do i do next?

#

hm

dim spruce
#

if that Profile1_Temp.sav file looks like it's from the time you want, rename that to simply Profile1.sav (overwriting the existing one) and see if that gets you back to where you should be when loading again

molten carbon
#

thx!

green stratus
#

hey- still having issues with my cursor flickering constantly in game. any fixes?

  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /IgnoreGamepads=true

#

Thanks so much, ill give it a shot!

#

@dim spruce I tried but it didnt work. Anything else?

dense parcel
#

So i was playing on another pc before Hades come into epic store cloud support. How can I sync my previous saves from the other device to my new one?

#

I mean it hasnt yet synced

dim spruce
#

@green stratus ah sorry the next things would be to try would be some of the sections in #h1-tech-fixes:
If You're Experiencing Hitching or Frame Rate / Performance Issues with the Game
Mouse and Controller Input Issues (e.g. Flickering Cursor, Slow Cursor)
Mouse Cursor Not Visible

#

hi @dense parcel all your save files are kept here:
\Documents\Saved Games\Hades
and you can certainly move them manually from your old PC to your new one

dense parcel
#

nice thanks a lot @dim spruce but cloud has to work too right? I mean even when I move them manually

#

then they sync in the cloud

dim spruce
#

unfortunately we don't have Cloud Saves fully setup yet on the Epic Game Store

dense parcel
#

aah okay still problems with it I suppose! Thanks a lot for the quick answers Gavin! Always helpful

green stratus
#

Nothing is working for the mouse issue. Would it help/matter if I've listed what I've tried or just sorta deal with it?

dim spruce
#

@green stratus it's ok sorry for the inconvenience for now, we will look into it more!

green stratus
#

Thanks so much! I've tried all the options listed, all the launch options (using steam), verified the game files, I don't have a controller in, I don't have issues with my mouse in any other games. Tried toggling all the mouse settings In game as well.

molten carbon
#

does the game sometimes just randomly make you get into an older save or is there a way to prevent it

dim spruce
#

@molten carbon it looks like a bug for some users that we are looking into and hope to have fixed with another update

molten carbon
#

    @dim spruce can i do the same for EGS?
dim spruce
#

apologies, yes this is under Settings -> Manage Games -> Hades -> Additional Command Line Arguments

sudden osprey
#

thank you

verbal tundra
#

@dim spruce Ive done all the fixes in regards to stuttering, overall the biggest improvement came from re-installing the CC+ '14-'19.

However I am still receiving frame skips, during the frame skips no input is being registered, so the game plays / acts as if I'm not doing anything at all. Then once the refresh catches up to updating the game visually, 10 - 15 frames were skipped, and I've likely taken damage or a ability will not trigger or there will be a massive delay between input and actual casting of abilities if the game remembers it is attempting to cast something after the frame skips.

So I may have run into a bit of a problem. I had gotten the waking phrase for the shield from Chaos and continued my run for a bit before pressing "give up" sense the run was going terribly. Afterward, I didn't have the aspect (as expected). So I went on another run, expecting Chaos to give me the phrase again, but he didn't. I've done two separate runs now talking to Chaos but he still hasn't given it to me again. I fear I may accidently locked myself out of the final shield aspect.

scarlet wagon
#

Quick question, Is it true borderless windowed mode isn't actually borderless windowed

#

Because I still can't move my mouse to my second screen

#

And nowadays this kind of display mode is necessary in a game. Cause everyone at least has two screens

sharp narwhal
#

@scarlet wagon Do you have Mouse Lock turned on in settings?

dim spruce
#

@woeful kayak please try using the following:

  1. Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Press the button that says 'Set Launch Options...'
  4. Enter the following: /GpuIndex=1

@polar panther Report that in-game with F10 please!

couple lags while fighting with rama aspect bow in Tartarus and then it's crashed

The game was running fine yesterday, but today I can get only ~22fps, even in main menu. It was probably either today's NVIDIA driver update or Hades hotfixes?

@wise patio Try using alt+tab to pull the bug reporter window to the foreground if it doesn't show up automatically!

wise patio
#

Thanks! I looked through my alt-tab, and it wasn't an option. Reposting here instead of feedback:

Hey, I've just hit F10 to report a bug, and it caused another bug... Hades was minimized, no bug report screen was pulled up, and now Hades is frozen. The window is entirely cyan, but I can see the version number and timer, and move my in-game cursor. (The original bug was weird font/text issues in the Well of Charon menu.)

frosty tiger
#

Keep seeing this even after I've tried all the troubleshooting steps. Happens intermittently (first occurance during an escape was mid-Asphodel). I've already submtted a report via F10.

Well then.

#

Hello!

#

I just have a tiny bit of an issue; my game keeps crashing. This seems to have a link with alt-tabbing, which I do do quite often, however this never used to be an issue before.

I used to have lots of lag and such prior to the update, and while that no longer is the case, the crashing has just been tragic. I've been unable to get past Tartarus in runs.

#

Gonna try Borderless now, but if that doesn't work, I'll return. :/

i just have a small problem. so on the fated list there is a quest to repair the lounge from Cerberus's rampage. i did that, both of em, but it haven't gotten the check mark and the 4 diamonds i need.

#

I'm having performance issues after the Blood Price update. FPS drops to 30-50 FPS in most areas now(the worst being in Asphodel) when it was a solid 60 before the update. Tried everything in #h1-tech-fixes to no avail, pls halp.

fleet knot
#

ik linux is not supported but I'm asking anyway if anyone knows where the ingame screenshot is saved, it gives a windows location(in proton). ik where steam save its screenshot but not the ingame one.

hearty ravine
#

Every single time I open the game, my settings get reset to default. I only have to change language to spanish and the volume, but it's a minor nuisance that I wanted to know if you were aware of
EDIT: Ok lied, it's every time the game updates, but it did have like 3 or 4 tiny (couple of megabytes) updates these days

grand raven
#

@dim spruce new build works quite a bit better. I still get stuttering in the House, but not as noticable in game? Would like frametimes/fps display I guess

#

@fleet knot you could always run 'find' inside your home folder. It'll be somewhere under the Steam / Proton path

fleet knot
#

I did but could not find it maybe cuz my proton is in different drive.

Heyo, on a new system and redownloaded the game yesterday and now my mouse is flickering whenever I move it. No controllers are connected and I added "/IgnoreGamepads=true" to launch options.

#

is there a fix to the sound problem ?

digital sleet
#

I've gone through all the tech fixes (I think) but the game still won't boot, registers as running for a few seconds but no window ever loads and then it stops. I've included my dxdiag just in case but I'm honestly lost

#

@digital sleet it happened to me couple of time but not now, I tried restarting steam.

#

@wind pagoda which sound issue are you referring to?

#

Where's a good place to report bugs?

crude acorn

F10 in game is the best as it gets automatically logged as a bug for us

I just checked.

#

Cool cool, will do!

limpid mist
#

Do any of these tick?

crude acorn
#

hm, no, small chance of it being in the reports folder, but more likely in the other folder from my previous message

limpid mist
#

I looked inside reports, it was completely empty.

#

Let me check the other folder.

#

thanks, we'll be looking into it, this is the first report of that problem that I've seen so far

scarlet coral
#

Thank you the other supergiant games I had no issue with them

sharp narwhal
#

@scarlet coral Just to double-check, have you verified your installation through the launcher?

scarlet coral
#

I have

sharp narwhal
#

Could you try running the game as administrator from the .exe file? Should be in Steam\steamapps\common\Hades\x64 or Epic Games\Hades\x64, right-click Hades.exe and run as administrator

scarlet coral
#

tried it

limpid mist
#

All for that, huh.

scarlet coral
#

I am not sure why its displaying like that

#

I even disabled my antivirus

pseudo dawn
#

As someone else has said in this channel but never got a response ( @weary oriole ) It appears Remote Play access has been removed from Hades?

#

Was this intentional or a bug?

scarlet coral
#

Nikral you referring to me ?

pseudo dawn
#

No I pinged who had mentioned it before

#

Steam Remote play worked ~2 months ago, but for the past month it doesn't seem possible anymore

scarlet coral
#

now I have a black screen

#

i can only see the mouse cursor only

crude acorn
#

@pseudo dawn did it start with this update a couple of days ago, or a month ago? @fading leaf was asking about it as well

pseudo dawn
#

About a month ago

#

Maybe a little longer

#

Verified, Updated, Tried Mobile Steam Link, Tried in home remote. Just doesnt seem to detect it on the Host PC

crude acorn
#

mobile doesn't work either? Since the update, mobile works for me, but another PC doesn't

#

that's strange

pseudo dawn
#

Haven't tried mobile since update... let me see

#

Okay Mobile works!! But as of last night the PC wasnt working

civic raven
#

Guys, I gotta ask - my game keeps freezing at random times during the game - I think it started happening with the former update - anyone got a similar experience?

#

It'll be running beautifully at 100+ FPS and then suddenly it'll just freeze - the music usually continues playing. What really sucks is that when I then close it from Task it considers it a 'give up' as if nothing ever happened.

i'm experiencing lagging, when i opened the game today it updated maybe it comes from that?

hi @elfin nymph your save files should be in this folder and should be untouched unless they were somehow deleted if you can check:

@elfin nymph unfortunately cloud saves are not enabled for Hades on Epic yet. but if you still have your old PC you can defintiely move them over manually

Hey, so I can't progress in hades anymore.
My save file shows me as being in a room in tartarus.
If I continue this save, things operate as normally, but when I quit the game I will end up back at the same place when starting.
Checked my saved data folder, and there is nothing dated after 13 Jun.

sharp narwhal
#

@visual bloom There are some suggested fixes for save issues in #h1-tech-fixes - give those a try!

ebon dragon
#

last patch kinda messed up the audio, I'd report this as a bug but it's not a good thing to capture on screenshot :D

  • Meg's voice always comes panned from the left
  • when I alt tabbed, the game just put a flowing (boiling?) river (of blood, presumably) on the highest volume and it persists until I quit to menu
  • some sounds which should play, don't, such as some dialogue lines
  • music and ambience sometimes crackle and turn off
#

I'm using an USB sound card, but I never had any audio problems in Hades whatsoever. Been playing since like half a year ago.

Hi, I'm one of the guys that commented on performance issues after the patch on Steam.

#

Well, as I said, I, and not only me, experiences huge performance issues after the latest patch.

signal ether
#

@surreal aspen Hi -- thank you for coming to our Discord. We really appreciate it. Someone here will follow up with you momentarily so we can figure out what's going on and try to fix it for you and others.

Ever since the blood price update the has updated every time i turn on my pc and steam automatically boots ups. Did you guys release like 3 short updates? Or is my game endlessly updating?

surreal aspen
#

@signal ether I will do my best!

signal ether
#

Thank you -- sorry for the issues. We really appreciate it!

surreal aspen

It's a great game, but can't be perfect in Early Access.

toxic trout
#

@glass mauve well, there's been the blood price update, then "several technical hot-fixes" (to quote Greg's patch notes, i wouldn't know details myself ^^;) and a subsequent smaller update as seen in #hades-patch-notes - is that maybe the downloads you're seeing?

glass mauve
#

Aaaah the update news below the play button wasn't showing anything so i got worried but now i see they were a few patches. Those were probably it. Sorry and thanks!

Hey there, I posted on the steam discussion about performance issues afters today's patch

should everyone experiencing that do the same?

hi @oak hull if you can first please try going through the steps in #h1-tech-fixes under:
**If You're Experiencing Hitching or Frame Rate / Performance Issues with the Game
**and if none of that resolves it please do DM me your DxDiag and Hades.log file!

Hey,
I commented a few days ago about bad framerate when running a youtube video on the side.
The update before fixed it but with the newest update it still stutters a little bit while running a youtube video.
I tried using the /UseSwapEffectDiscard=true command line argument and it runs perfectly smooth with a youtube video on the side.

dim spruce
#

@upper aurora thanks for the update glad you were able to find a smooth setup for now

Did everyone get the last update v.031726 ? I closed Steam, verified integrity of the files, no update yet for me. Fixed by changing download location within Steam

digital sleet
#

I've gone through all the tech fixes (I think) but the game still won't boot, registers as running for a few seconds but no window ever loads and then it stops. I've included my dxdiag just in case but I'm honestly lost
@digital sleet still not working after latest patches

visual bloom
#

Hey, so I can't progress in hades anymore.
My save file shows me as being in a room in tartarus.
If I continue this save, things operate as normally, but when I quit the game I will end up back at the same place when starting.
Checked my saved data folder, and there is nothing dated after 13 Jun.

I tried to go through all of the save-related fixes in #h1-tech-fixes , but to no avail. Wondering what else I could do.

fallen pilot
#

Huh, so I came here for tech support for framerate issues.... but evidently I just figured it out. Is there a known massive framerate loss when playing with mouse and keyboard vs controller?

signal ether
#

@digital sleet and @visual bloom -- apologies for the issues you are experiencing. We may be a little slow to reply until tomorrow. Thank you for your patience. We hope we can get you running (and saving properly) then.

#

@fallen pilot we are not aware of those issues. When you play with a gamepad, you no longer have performance issues?

fallen pilot
#

Yep. Mouse and keyboard is single digit framerates, stutters, mostly unplayable. As soon as the gamepad engages, everything smooths out completely.

frosty tiger
#

Second time this night, every other game on Steam updates just fine, now patch notes says version is v0.31730 and I have v0.31726 and the trick to change download location doesn't work.

@digital sleet and @visual bloom -- apologies for the issues you are experiencing. We may be a little slow to reply until tomorrow. Thank you for your patience. We hope we can get you running (and saving properly) then.
@signal ether no worries, this has been ongoing for a couple weeks now and im just itching to play the new patch

signal ether
#

@frosty tiger have you tried this?

It Used to Work... (Verifying the Game Files)
Sometimes, issues can happen when downloading game updates. If the game isn't working properly for you, try verifying the game files:

On Steam:
ยท Right-click on Hades in your Steam Library
ยท Select 'Properties...', then select the 'Local Files' tab
ยท Select 'Verify Integrity of Game Files...'

paper prawn
#

Hello @signal ether decided to join this discord after downloading the new patch ive been getting bellow 30fps in the meny or in game and nothing i do fixes it?

#

might have to do with the mouse and keyboard framerate @fallen pilot mentioned earlier

signal ether
#

@paper prawn -- sorry for the issues you are having. Were you able to try the following things under #h1-tech-fixes:

If You're Experiencing Hitching or Frame Rate / Performance Issues with the Game

ยท As stated above, ensure you have the latest graphics drivers
ยท Try toggling the Fullscreen and/or VSync settings in-game
ยท If you have Nvidia G-Sync or AMD FreeSync, please disable them
ยท Add the following launch option (instructions on how to do this below): /UseSwapEffectDiscard=true
ยท If available, in your graphics device control panel, set โ€œMaximum Performance Priorityโ€ and/or โ€œFast VSyncโ€
ยท Ensure Windows 7 compatibility mode is NOT turned on for Hades.exe
ยท Disable any overlays, e.g. Steam, GeForce, etc.
ยท Physically disconnect all secondary display devices

#

If that doesn't work, yes please try a gamepad instead of keyboard + mouse if you have that option. And if none of that works, please let me know.

paper prawn
#

i seem to have had some other drivers i needed to update after the patch and had to restart my computer

#

once i did the game worked fine ty very much for the sup @signal ether

frosty tiger
#

@signal ether yeah did it for the first time I had that issue, it didnt work, then changed the download location and then it worked, but this time both solutions don't work.

signal ether
#

@paper prawn thanks, glad to hear it! Which drivers did you need (Intel, AMD or Nvidia)?

#

@frosty tiger have you tried uinstinalling the game completely and reinstalling?

frosty tiger
#

@signal ether wont do that with 12GB to download every time lol ๐Ÿ˜›

sharp rune
#

I'm still running the blood price update (the one just before the patch posted today ending in 30) and can't figure out how to get the new patch. Steam didn't automatically download it like it usually does.

frosty tiger
#

Yeah something is off with Steam, but other games auto-update just fine, will try again and again.

signal ether
#

@sharp rune Sorry for the issues you are having -- our latest hotfix includes a fix for an audio 'leak' in Asphodel and the new Aspect of Beowulf, though beyond that it's not much different so you may be ok to continue until Steam allows you to download it.

Alternatively, you can try restarting steam, or right-clicking on the game in your library, going to Properties -> Updates and selecting "Always Keep This Game Up To Date".

frosty tiger
#

Hmm what I'll do now is delete just one of the executables and check for game files integrity again, that might trick Steam to force update.

#

Nope, didnt help, it just dowloaded the missing file, are you sure you deployed the patch to steam correctly?

signal ether
#

@sleek oyster Hi there -- please use spoiler tags on your screenshots by using these: || around both sides. Please report these type of bugs in-game by pressing F10.

#

@frosty tiger Yes, we have many players playing on it at the moment.

frosty tiger
#

Okay thanks, don't know what else to think about really, restarted Steam several times, checked game files integrity, changed download location, deleted one file to force update, what else Im missing hmm

signal ether
#

@frosty tiger Sorry -- I just looked at your issue more closely. Sometimes the in-game menu number is slightly off the number we write in the patch notes. The version you have should be the latest.

frosty tiger
#

Oh man! thanks @signal ether it was driving me crazy, for future reference though we should be all aware of that, might save some headaches for you and us.

signal ether
#

@frosty tiger -- Yeah, sorry for the headache!

frosty tiger
#

@signal ether it's okay, finding solutions to problems is my passion in life ๐Ÿ™‚

frosty tiger
#

Question, in your bug report tool, is it normal it shows half the ram I got? DXDiag and other software is reporting it correctly, just wanted to let you know in any case. As for the version mismatch Im watching all streamers have the same v0.31726 so it is correct after all.

sharp rune
#

Oh, okay, thats good to know. Then my issue is probably ignorable then, if there's just a graphical version number mismatch.

signal ether
#

@frosty tiger good to know there is a discrepancy there. We mostly rely on DxDiags when tryin to diagnose hardware specific problems.

Weird v0.31730 update issue with EGS: The game keeps re-downloading the latest patch. EGS does the whole "There's a new update" rigamaroll but it's the same version as before. It has to re-download the same patch every time. Anyone else getting this if they own the EGS version?

Hello and sorry to interrupt. I'm having some frustrating issues with the "Warning: Unable to Save!" pop-up.

Toggling read-only in properties does nothing - it instantly resets.

Trying to toggle it via Administrator: Command Prompt didn't work. My access was denied by Windows Security and it didn't work even after disabling 'real-time protection' and 'controlled folder access' protection. It simply doesn't reply with a message anymore.

I've also tried running the game itself as administrator, and reinstalling it. The game was purchased through steam and played on the same hardware with no apparent issues back in march. And enjoyed quite thoroughly, might I add.

Edit: Solved with no one clear solution. Folder still says it's read-only though.
ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

@last kettle could you suggest that in #hades-patch-notes the version number is v.031726 and not v.031730 as it might get confusing.

@frosty tigerin Hi Gavin Allison referred me to you in regards with the dxdiag log file.

@frosty tiger, I'll forward that along! there's also a chance we may have another small patch over the next few days, so it may not be an issue for long.

@last kettle does anybody using it in a Linux OS have any issues with the game ?

swift crater

I may be confused.
There is no Hades.log in my Saved Games > Hades folder. Possibly due to it being a fresh install.

#

@scarlet coral while I can't provide any specific information about users' preferred set-ups, the Blood Price update uses an entirely new engine, so we anticipate hiccups at first with many set-ups. Can you please describe more about the bugs you are currently experiencing?

#

@swift crater if you have no save profiles then Hades.log won't be there. in that case, don't worry about it--your dxdiag should be enough. ๐Ÿ™‚

It's not there.

I do (or hope I still do) have my old saves, but no attempts to play past the warning have been made after the fresh installation.

I see, then provide your DXDiag and it should be enough for the dev team to assist you.

So, I had a problem that basically "crash" the game. I gave the last bottle of Ambrosia to Charon and had the talk with him. After that all the game's sound stopped and the only thing playing was the song from the conversation. When a tried to move to the next room I got stuck on a black screen with the music still playing. I closed the application but didn't close properly on steam and the music kept playing ๐Ÿ˜† . So I had to shutdown the game's thread on the task manager.

bold fox
#

I'm not sure if this is the right place to mention, i had my game crash twice in Elysium. The first time I loaded back in fine, the second time I loaded back in weapon room :(

twilit dirge
#

I was not sure too. But didn't find anything saying where I should report.

bold fox
#

I also had the music bug too

flat crater
#

I cannot seem to get the update to 0.31730, the version that I have is 0.31726 and I have tried restarting steam with verifying game cache files. Also, every time I verify local files it says its downloading two new files and never works. Also, if I try opening the game using the x64 version nothing happens, the .exe doesnt work at all, so if I try to open the game through Steam nothing happens and I have to go to the file location to open the x86 exe.

frosty tiger
#

@flat crater yeah we all have that, its something wrong with the ingame number, you have the correct version.

sharp narwhal
#

The in-game number is generated when the game is built; sometimes if changes are really small, it won't increment, so you get a different "visible" version number. If you have the game on Epic, clicking the three dots to the right of the game in your library will show the "real" version you're on.

#

It's strange that the x64 .exe isn't working though. @flat crater Has that always been the case or is it recent? Do you have a 64-bit operating system?

frosty tiger
#

That's odd, even the smallest change in the game structure generates a new build no?

barren swan
#

Zag sometimes glitches out when I interact with things, i.e whenever I'm changing weapons or picking up gems etc. I'm able to recreate it, but only very randomly.

#

And by 'glitches out' I meant the sprite disappears or some parallel lines appear in place of Zag for a very short moment.

frosty tiger
#

@barren swan AMD card?

barren swan
#

No, Intel integrated graphics.

frosty tiger
#

Ouch

@barren swan Yes, that's a known issue we're still looking into. You can report stuff like that in-game with the F10 key

@sharp narwhal I just got the game when the Summer sales started (25th), and it's been like that from the start

#

My OS is 64bit

sharp narwhal
#

Alright - there are some "Hades won't start" fixes in #h1-tech-fixes, give those a try if you haven't already. In particular make sure you have the x64 version of the latest C++ redistributable

#

Steam is supposed to include them but something could've gotten messed up

barren swan
#

Thank you Ellis, I was unsure whether that was an issue with my graphics card or an actual bug that's why I asked that here.

sharp narwhal
#

Nope, it's a game issue! No worries ๐Ÿ˜„

hasty plover
#

@scarlet coral could you also share your log file(Hades.log) it should be next to your profiles/saves in Documents/Saved Games/Hades

#

@flat crater are you saying x86 works for you? Could you kindly share dxdiag and log file?

flat crater
#

Yeah, x86 works, but I have to manually go to the files and execute the x86 from there, I guess Steam executes the x64 by default

#

I'll get the log files in a minute

i'm having a weird stuttering issue. every few seconds (especially bad in rooms with a lot going on, like the viper fight), i get stutters, lasting a couple tenths of a second. it seems to be slightly better on lower resolutions, but it's still a problem with every setting from no-vsync 720p windowed to vsync 4k fullscreen, even just in the training/weapon choosing room. especially at the lower resolutions, i can clearly see that neither my cpu nor my gpu are anywhere near maxed out, so this puzzles me.

here are the two files you requested from the last person, assuming those will help

There is something worth trying for Nvidia people.

I've seen a huge performance difference from the latest Nvidia driver's new option, Low Latency Mode. With it off, I get choppy 90FPS in the House, but with it on, I have my 120FPS back. The issue is that it defaults to being off...

Alright - how specifically is the game not launching? Are you seeing a black screen, is it crashing to desktop on launch, freezing on launch, or failing to launch entirely?

muted wharf

the game will launch and as its loading up to bring me to the main menu the loading bar will stop about half way and will crash and bring me to the submit bug menu.

OK thank you very much, ive put a few through but i will send another with my discord tag.

Interesting, it's a font error of some sort, and it looks like a unique report so far. Since it's happening every time you start the game and it doesn't reproduce on my end, it's probably something unique to your setup, though I can't say what it might be offhand.

Hey there, currently experiencing a frustrating issue with the mouse and was wondering if anyone knew the fix. The whole game seems to lag whenever i move the mouse. while completely still, all animations work completely fine but as soon as the mouse moves the whole game starts to stutter. Any fixes?

heady sluice
#

Can confirm I experiencing the same issue. Moving around with my keyboard is smooth; the instant I move my mouse cursor, stuttering and frame skipping occurs.

silent reef
#

I even used the fix listed in tech fixes but it seems to have not worked. Tankos do you use any sort of gamepad?

#

@heady sluice

heady sluice
#

@silent reef I don't have a gamepad plugged in at the moment. I was going to plug one in and see if it magically fixes the mouse. I also attempted all the fixes in the tech fixes channel.

silent reef
#

i wonder if just playing with the gamepad would work

heady sluice
#

I can even see the stuttering in the main menu as well as the opening cinematic

#

Are you using a Razer mouse by chance?

#

Disabled Mouse software and no change. Running windows update to go to Windows 10 v1909

silent reef
#

Nah im using corsair

#

i also have the main menu

#

issue

#

Okay i have made a bit of progress

#

the fix that is listed

#

/IgnoreGamepads=true

#

that command doesnt seem to work for some reason

#

I am on the otherhand using a razer gamepad

heady sluice
#

Wow. Right-Click Hades.exe and run as administrator...

#

@silent reef

silent reef
#

lol please dont say its that simple

I've lurking around here and reddit to see if anyone has audio issues with the newest update? Hadn't been on in a few weeks and updated it and get 0 audio from it. I've checked my default settings, verified files and do have other steam games that have audio with no problems.

heady sluice
#

@silent reef Did that fix your stutter as well?

pine talon
#

Hi, we are looking into mouse stutter issues. @heady sluice @silent reef I or someone from the team might DM you for some debug info in a bit

heady sluice
#

No problem. Enabling 'run as administrator' for the x64 Hades.exe seems to have cleared mine up.

olive nymph
#

Did uninstall and re install game as well to no avail

heady sluice
#

Updating Windows 10 to v1909 does not resolve the issue by itself. So far only running as administrator seems to fix the mouse stutter.

pine talon
#

@olive nymph Could you DM me your dxdiag and also your Hades.log file please? Thanks!

olive nymph
#

alright will do

#

Sent your way

pine talon
#

Thanks, will take a look and get back to you shortly

Every single time I verify game files it shows that two files are downloading, and every single time it shows that the download was successful but nothing changes.

Ok I tried downloading the C++ redistributables and it worked!

Thanks for the help

damn, my bug reports are still broken, in both full screen and not, is there anything i can try?

Also new patch keeps resetting my in-game main volume to 0 every time i go to main menu (1)

Not entirely sure if it's something with the game in general or something specific to my save file but the security log will only show the heat and mirror settings for the last two runs I completed. On everything before it will show the total amount of heat used, but no specific pact options chosen as well as nothing for the mirror.

@velvet fog AFAIK (was mention somewhere here I think) this log is not backwards compatitible, only shows the heat and mirror settings from this build, so it works as intended

velvet fog
#

@faint jewel Thanks, but I completed more than two runs in this build, and it still only shows the last two used.

faint jewel
#

Then it's worth F10ing I think

velvet fog
#

I did that during the Beta, where it was the same. The fact that it isn't fixed and no one else complained makes me think that it might be related to my install specifically, that's why I'm asking here.

tardy lynx
#

I had the same when patch started, all my runs before the new patch had the total heat but not what was chosen

velvet fog
#

It's not just all the runs before the patch for me, it's all runs except the last two listed.

#

If I complete another run, win or lose, I lose the entries from the now third-to-last one.

tardy lynx
#

Okay, actually, i have the same

#

only on last 2 runs i have chosen heat and mirror

Minor bug where I came back to Tartarus, the VO stopped working for all characters other than Zag

#

Please report all bugs in-game using F10. We appreciate your sharp eyes/ears!

sharp narwhal
#

@tardy lynx Don't worry about the images not showing in your reports - the reports send us a save file too, and as long as you describe the issue and what you were doing before it started, we can usually figure it out even if the screenshot doesn't attach properly. We will continue to look into why that's happening but for the purpose of bug reporting, it's not urgent

tardy lynx
#

Thank you, understood

sharp narwhal
#

The in-game volume resetting is, I think, something having to do with save profiles that are converting numbers between different regional formats (i.e. language and region settings), we're looking into why that happens too

#

First time playing since the new update yesterday, and I had an issue where the D-Pad up button on my Xbox One controller wasn't being registered by the game. Seems like the control settings were corrupted somehow, and I fixed it by reverting them to the defaults. I had not edited them previously. Epic store version if it's relevant.

lapis ruin
#

Hello there!
Ever since the new update, I have a blackscreen when I launch the game. I can hear the game is runnibg by the music and sounds of the menu, I see the mouse cursor, but that's it. I reinstalled the game once, it worked, but today I have the same issue. Is this something you're aware of? Is there a solution?
Thank you very much ๐Ÿ™

sharp narwhal
#

@lapis ruin There are some potential blackscreen fixes in #h1-tech-fixes - give those a try if you haven't already!

lapis ruin
#

Thank you very much. All the love for the team of Supergiant Games, you guys are doing awesome games!

#

Hello, in my run today the final boss dialogue stopped being spoken, just some text. Then when I came back to the house, most of the dialogues wasn't spoken too, only zagreus and dusa was spoken.

#

Some other sfx also didn't appear like the sound when the items pop up after you give fish to the chef

crisp ginkgo
#

Hello! I found some odd graphics layering issues (in a specific room in Tartarus, destroying pots will make a statue briefly disappear, then reappear when you next move, in another Tartarus room I was able move behind a section of wall where that shouldn't be possible). I have screenshots, but only just came to this Discord and saw that you prefer in-game reporting. Are the screenshots still useful, or is it better to wait until I see this again in-game?

sharp narwhal
#

@shy hornet Yes, that's a known issue we're still looking into. Quitting and restarting the game should fix it.

#

@crisp ginkgo Just wait until you see them again!

crisp ginkgo
#

@sharp narwhal When I hit F10 in-game to report the bug, the screen went completely blue with only the Hades cursor visible above it (and when I tried to take a screenshot, the screenshot displayed it as being completely black instead of the aqua blue I was seeing). My computer was fine, and I could minimize the game and see and interact with my desktop, Steam, etc without issue, but I couldn't get rid of the blank screen for Hades and needed to stop the game via the task manager. It reopened after this without issue, and even loaded me into the same room I had been in when I pressed F10 with all acquired boons.

sharp narwhal
#

When you see that cyan screen, try using alt+tab to cycle through active windows and see if you can bring the bug reporter window to the foreground!

crisp ginkgo
#

That did it. Thank you!

Since the last update, my xbox controller doesn't want to work in Hades, i don't know why :/ i've tried in other game and my pad seems to work perfectly
Is there a solution ?

Try turning off vibrations in Settings menu

frank moss
#

getting messages about savegame errors constantly - at least every 2-3 rooms. Game still seems to save fine though so not sure what problem is. I've deleted save files whilst game is running and let it recreate but same issue pops up. Any one else noticed?

dim spruce
#

@frank moss would you mind sending me this file?
\Documents\Saved Games\Hades\Hades.log

tardy lynx
#

wait what the hell, game like made a small screen on the side at the start, and now some textures are gone

#

oh, sorry for much screenshots, but i can see myself dashing down there together with me

#

okay, going back to menu didn't help, but closing and opening the game did, i got scared i corrupted something, other rooms lacked textures (like Orpheus) too

sharp narwhal
#

The sound resetting to 0 is an issue with some non-English language save profiles, we're looking into a fix!

tame loom
#

my steam controller isnt working properly with the game anymore

#

the physical controller actually turns off when I try to play, but behaves normally with everything else

#

and when I turn it back on it immediately activates left trigger in game

stray elm
#

Are you playing in Big Picture mode?

#

@tame loom

tame loom
#

no

stray elm
#

That might be worth a try?

tame loom
#

it didnt change anything but it seems turning off vibration does the trick

#

I hope thats a temporary fix

dapper lily

also happened in the chambers

#

Most dashing through and across walls is as designed - if a dash takes you very obviously out of bounds or into an area outside of the main map, please report that with F10 in-game!

Hello, hello. I logged on today, only to find after the most recent patch, my save file was totally gone. I posted on Reddit, and was led here! ๐Ÿ˜„

I made 2 new profiles since then, in slot one and two (two is in hard mode or whatever) but my progress from before the dash changes (A while back, huh?) is all gone.

is this the right place to report this?

#

column collision size is messed up/small

#

and this here happens a lot

on both columns

#

its not even a bug but I think it needs fixing or something

sharp narwhal
#

@uneven shuttle If you have any files in \Documents\Saved Games\Hades that have a ".sav.bak" extension, e.g. "Profile1.sav.bak", try renaming them to ".sav" and starting the game again

uneven shuttle
#

@sharp narwhal I saw this advice on Reddit and tried it without success unfortunately

Alright - sorry about that! Someone here may be willing to share a save file; there are also maxed-out saves available at speedrun.com/hades/resources

Ok I'll do that, thx anyway

exotic dome
#

Hi, are the audio issues with missing dialog already known? It started to me after the blood price update

sharp narwhal
#

Yes we're aware the audio can cut out sometimes - restarting the game should fix it

exotic dome
#

Awesome, thanks. I also had a couple of runs in which the water background sound kept playing non-stop, after I defeated that last guy and came back to the house.

#

I just played again and the issue didn't happen, but then I had some missing dialog lines instead.
How do I submit bug reports from the game itself? It's probably better than reporting from here, so you can check if any combination of boons, weapons and effects is the culprit.

stray elm
#

You can press f10 while in game

frozen talon
#

Wasn't sure where to give my observations: it seems, Varatha's special with Guan Yu will miss somehow, even if it flies right through the enemy
Also couldn't catch that on screenshot, happens much too fast

stray elm
#

Try and f10 it anyway when it's close to happening, that'll still be helpful for the devs. Just make sure to describe what's happening in the text box there

cold jetty

I've been playing since before the Dash Changes, when bone hydra was the furthest boss. I hate that I lost my file lol

@stray elm aight, will try!

Hello guys, i think i found a bug in my game, I'm currently playing with the aspect of hades, but i keep getting the spin attack instead of the sweep, has anyone else gotten that??

after the latest patch my saving has been inconsistent as sometimes the autosave works as usual but sometimes i get a save error, then i get to the next room and it saves like usual. has anyone else had this issue?

sharp narwhal

@fading owl Report bugs in-game with F10 please!

fading owl
#

ok

sharp narwhal

@hollow swan There's another issue that can cause the "can't save" message to appear, we're looking into it - as long as your game is saving correctly, I'd disregard it for now

ok just wanted to make sure it wasnt just me

I've received a noticeable amount of stuttering and in-game "lag" for lack of a better term. I know there were driver updates issued and I've downloaded them. A slowdown and stutter can be seen on both menus and during gameplay.
Is this something other players are encountering?

i enabled vsync in nvidia control panel with a gsync monitor, before that it ran choppy as well (vsync on or off in-game no difference)

a possible reset bug ?

I tried the fix in 'hades-tech-fixes' to get back save data from a crash, but instead of reset my game to how it was when the update hit. Thankfully I was able to restore it to after it crashed but I still lost the latest run. Is there anything I can further I can try?

I just crashed again for like the fifth time making me lose a run, game just freezes without any other notification and I have to shut it down. Anyone else getting this? Last two runs I lost happened on the new weapon during bossfights, I don't trust the fistweapons anymore ๐Ÿ˜›

@quick dragon Have you been able to send a crash report?

quick dragon
#

it prompted me to do so once and i sent it

#

the other times i couldnt do anything ingame anymore nor did i get bug report prompt

#

ok, if you added any username/email to it then I can look at it right now. You can dm me the details you added to the crash report

dim haven
#

My game keeps skipping saving; as in it will save sometimes, usually once per session and then not again. Is this a problem anybody else has had? I've lost a ton of progress at this point.

sharp narwhal
#

@dim haven There are some fixes for the game not saving in #h1-tech-fixes , give those a try if you haven't already!

#

@lament cliff Losing your most recent run and being returned to the training room is a side effect of the game crashing, depending on when it crashes. There are two "Quit" options in the main menu, "Quit" and "Give Up". "Give Up" rolls your progress back to your last save in the House, before the current run - most of the time the game is crashing at a time when "Quit" isn't available and "Give Up" is, so when the game closes, it interprets this as "Giving Up", rolling back your progress. There's not really a way to work around this.

lament cliff
#

Oh ok, thanks for the reply

dim haven
#

I've applied the changes to windows defender and hopefully now it will work. Strangely enough, it only seems to stop saving after playing the game for extended periods, not sure why that would be

Also thank you for the reply as well

@trail hedge I'm seeing the same thing today. Hopefully someone has an idea of how to fix this. Was working fine yesterday.

#

There is also an "Application Hang" event in the Windows Application log within Event Viewer:

trail hedge
#

yeah it worked fine for me too yesterday, now I know that I'm not the only one with this problem at least.

sharp narwhal
#

@tame marten I'm pretty sure I saw your bug report about this - I'm going to look into it soon!

#

"Application Hang" is a generic windows error that unfortunately doesn't provide any details about what caused the hang.
@trail hedge and @jovial hill , you can generate a DxDiag.txt (instructions here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028644/windows-open-and-run-dxdiagexe) and send that and Hades.log (Documents\Saved Games\Hades) to @dim spruce with a description of what's happening and he'll look into it.

#

this hasn't happened before and is it a known issue

#

but i keep losing good runs because it puts me back in the training room after the game crashes

sharp narwhal
#

The game rolling back your progress after a crash (or not, as the case may be) is a consequence of how the save system works - there are two quit options during a run depending on whether you've completed a chamber or not: "Quit" and "Give Up". You're able to quit safely at the very start and end of most chambers. At all other times, though, your only quit option is "Give Up", which rolls back your progress to before you started the run. Depending on when the game crashes, it may interpret the crash/force quit as a "Give Up", which will roll back your run.

rain hound
#

ah thanks

#

that's pretty annoying

New boons been added during the patch, but since you already completed the prophecy on previous patch, new boons in them remain unrecieved

Um, I don't know if this was reported, but for some reason only Talos and Stygius have been getting "Dark Thirst" Like it bounces between the two. I haven't seen it on another weapon for the past 5 or 6 runs.

sharp narwhal
#

I'd imagine it's RNG; 5 or 6 runs isn't super unusual. If you don't see another weapon get the bonus for 10+ runs, report it in-game with F10

gotcha

#

so it's just really weird RNG then?

Most likely!

tardy lynx
#

@cinder ingot There is a special mechanic about fishing, you need to catch at first third of the second (i think?) to get a chance for tier 3 fish.

#

Game will say that its "Perfect catch!" instead of "Caught!" at the top if you were successful

#

I hate that game never says that

#

I think thats what was your problem, you didnt get any other tier 3 fish from other areas, right?

#

@tardy lynx havenโ€™t tried playing online. I must add that my save is safe and OK after so many crashes

tardy lynx
#

It could be something related to offline steam but i doubt, damn, i can't help there. Try using methods like open as admin or steam/egs starting properties. Does it suddenly started happenning, like, next day after fine work (also maybe after patch) or it happens for long time?

Not sure how many people have had the disappearing zag/enemies bug, but I got an interesting version of it today where Zag's model was misplaced toward the bottom right of the screen. Unfortunately I mostly speedrun so I didn't take the time to press F10 and report. Can/Should I post a clip of it here?

hasty plover
#

@lyric remnant were you able to send crash report?

haughty sleet
#

I have a recording of the whole run and my inputs as well since I was streaming a speedrun at the time, unsure how helpful that'd be.

sharp narwhal
#

@haughty sleet If character models are disappearing in your game, that's most likely an issue with the game files, particularly some missing animations. Try verifying your installation through the launcher

#

Zag loading out of bounds is a different issue that we're working on a fix for

haughty sleet
#

Will definitely try verifying/reinstalling, it's hard to say what's going on w/ this bug to be honest, Zag and enemies just kinda pop in and out of existence for a couple frames at a time usually. This time was weird because Zag appeared in a new place on screen instead of just vanishing.

Not sure if this is the place to post this and not sure if this has been brought up or fixed already or if ya'll even wanna fix it but during one of the loading screens to the start of a run where Hades talks to you and a word is like highlighted.

Hi, so after this new update I'm not able to find my second profile. I had my first save on a regular playthrough, and a second save on Hell Mode that I was pretty far along on. For some reason, it won't recognize the second profile. I've imported the save, tried renaming the temp file to "Profile2", I have no clue what to do.

Hello ๐Ÿ™‚ Regarding Dusa's bond, ||I filled up all the hearts, not able to give her more ambrosia and had the conversation about being more than friends and such. She ended up saying that she needs to think but she hasn't quite told me anything else about it yet (several runs after this). On top of that, when I check the keepsake, there's no message for the Bond like with Chaos, Nyx and anyone else with whom you have forged a bond with. Is the missing bond message a bug? Am I missing something? Is there anything else that she would tell me?||
Thank you ๐Ÿ™‚

#

excuse me but ever since the update on june the 26th my game constantly drops to 20 fps or lower and I can't tab out the game

sharp narwhal
#

@restive basin There should be one more event before you get the bond message. It may take a while to come up, but I'm pretty sure it's not bugged.

#

@coral herald Not being able to tab out of the game is a known issue and we're working on a fix. As for performance, there are some suggested settings in #h1-tech-fixes ; if none of those work, could you submit a report in-game using F10 when you're seeing really severe lag?

I just logged into the game and it appears my 2 save files were destroyed....I had over 30 hours in them, Is this a thing for the new update or is it just me? I had recently formatted my pc, does hades not have cloud saves? is there any way of getting my files back?

that fixed it thank you

#

Darn it, sorry. Wanted to do an in game report but didn't get it. Basically what happened after losing to fight with Theseus and Minotaur, it seems either the audio in the left channel was being weird and most voice lines except Zag weren't playing after even into the next run (voice lines from Chaos and other boons were not happening). Is there a way to send you a log.txt or something?

#

I assume such a thing will get overwritten when i restart the game

@burnt herald it happened to me a lot, I realized that opening the menu in each voiceline would restore the audio for that voiceline, not a fix but at least you could listen to them (if it's the same problem)

burnt herald
#

by that you mean hitting escape or pressing start during dialog?

#

I should also note that the dialog windows would still act with the same behavior. The down arrow "continue convo" button that appears when a voice line ends still appeared - there was just no audio of the line, i.e. it was as if certain characters or voice lines were on mute

Since the last update, my xbox controller doesn't want to work in Hades, i don't know why :/ i've tried in other game and my pad seems to work perfectly
Is there a solution ? I already disabled vibrations in the setting menu and my pad doesn't work, i also re-install the game, same result again :/
Somebody have a solution ?

@sharp narwhal thank you!

I've f10'd something similar to what Benjamin has faced as well, at some point in the run dialogues of some NPC's stopped playing for me. After dying on that run I heard Hades' dialogue in a very small volume in the left ear. At the same time in the lounge I heard only Maegera's dialogue when she and Nyx were having a conversation.

I haven't reopened the game yet, so idk if it fixes itself.
I'm telling this here because I rushed the f10 and sent the report at the first instance it happened due to which the report isn't detailed. (In my case, first Eurydice's singing/dialogue broke),

Hi @steady mantle, sorry to hear about your recent saves. Please try the following steps:
ยท Navigate to \Documents\Saved Games\Hades
ยท Rename Profile1.sav.bak to Profile1.sav (or Profile1_temp.sav.bak to Profile1.sav); this assumes you use Save Slot 1 (in your case, also rename Profile2.sav.bak to Profile2.sav)
ยท Then open the Play menu in-game and look for the saves.

#

Dialogue audio not playing is a known issue and is currently being worked on. If it occurs again, feel free to send an F10 so we can get a log of it. Otherwise the issue can normally be solved by exiting the game and verifying your game files.

frosty tiger
#

Oh incoming patch ๐Ÿ™‚ alt-tab fixed in fullscreen, thanks guys

haughty sleet
#

Since the overhaul that came with the Blood Price update, Hades no longer behaves well when running multiple monitors at different refresh rates. Previously, if the game was in Fullscreen then the game always used the refresh rate of the monitor it was on regardless of any hardware accelerated tasks occuring on secondary monitors. Current behavior is that the refresh rate fluctuates depending on other monitor activity, resulting in the framerate jumping around if V-sync is on and a generally poor play experience regardless of V-sync setting. This means, for example, that if I want a smooth Hades experience I can't have discord up on my second monitor if somebody is typing in a channel as that animation causes refresh rate issues.

The "/UseSwapEffectDiscard=true" launch option seems to have fixed my issue? I'll post again if it pops back up but thanks for pointing me the right way Gavin. Hopefully means I can use the twitch dashboard/have OBS up on my second monitor again. ๐Ÿ™‚

After installing the blood price, I found the nyx sidequest available; after completing it, i found nyx appearing once with chaos but she never returned to the house even after 20+ runs, and I need her to advance in other quests. Furthermore, I unlocked all aspects available except the adamant rail one; I heard I need to talk to zeus but he never gives it, even after maxing the bond. Charon also suddenly stopped popping his secret boss encounter. Is my save file corrupted?

sharp narwhal
#

@frosty tiger Report that in-game with F10 if you haven't already, please!

#

@whole dust Charon's boss encounter not showing up is likely to be bad RNG; there are only a few locations where it can be available, too, and if you're not going through every one of them, it lowers your chances. As for the other two, you can submit a report with F10 and we'll look into it!

Hi i just bought Hades today but it's stuck constantly on the 'performing first time set-up'. Like it's supposedly successful and the download bar finishes but when i attempt to start the game, it does the same thing again, any way to solve this?

sharp narwhal
rapid copper
#

Alright, will attempt that!

#

Hmm now it basically starts up the game but then immediately closes within 1/2 a second. If it helps, i tried to launch the game via administrator but it mentioned something along the lines of 'D3DCOMPILER_47.dll' is missing from my com.

sharp narwhal
#

Are you on Windows 8 by any chance?

rapid copper
#

yes i am!

sharp narwhal
#

Yeah, weirdly we've been seeing that issue but only from Windows 8...haven't had time to look into it further. It's a DirectX component but not too sure why it's missing. Just a second and let me check my support tickets to see if what I'm thinking of will help you

rapid copper
#

Alright sure, thanks. I appreciate it

sharp narwhal
#

Also if you have any pending Windows updates, try installing those

rapid copper
#

Okay will give that a go

rapid copper
#

Hmm sadly enough, it says my pc is uncompatible with all the options in the .NET.. Is it possible that Hades needs rather decent specs to run as a game? Reason being that my pc is considered pretty old (Edit: nvm just checked somewhere that my pc should be able to run it properly)

#

That being said though.. is there any other way to solve this problem? Like would there be a potential update in the future that resolves this issue perhaps or not at all since it seems to be an issue that resurfaces

sharp narwhal
#

No, it's not connected to your specs or the game, it's a system file issue. I'm not sure why, but a few Windows 8 users have had this same issue and I can only guess that there was a Windows update that was weird at some point or something like that. We're looking into it more; other players who've contacted me about this issue have ended up resolving it themselves, though I'm not too sure how. I don't want to tell you to go download a random copy of D3DCompiler_47 from some .dll site or anything like that but until I have a better idea why it might be missing or where the official source would be I can't make a solid suggestion. From Microsoft's support page it looks like the included DirectX packages can't be reinstalled as a standalone either.

Have you updated your graphics drivers to the latest version recently?

Just installed the patch. The Main Menu functions correctly. When I select Continue and then my save file, it doesn't seem to finish loading the game scene. The screen goes completely white. The game is still responsive in that I can activate the Pause menu and interact with it normally, but the game environment and characters never appear. Reset machine, trying launching it from the Epic launcher and from the executable, drivers are all up to date.

Since the new patch, whenever i go on another screen and come back the hades screen is just black. No sound, no image, no anything. It used to work fine before that.

Only way to get it back onto my screen is to change my monitor resolution so every window moves back onto my screen.

Watching Hades: Graphical Issues realized that I have a problem with "Dual Monitors: If you have a dual or multi-monitor setup, your monitor settings and configuration may cause Hades not to display properly.But I have no idea how to fix it, in the game screen resolution 1680x1050 as usual, but then there were black lines and how many not change the resolution in the flesh to 1600x900 lines remain .Thank you.

still no cloud support for epic store?

Since the latest patch I have had multiple crashes midgame. Really frustrating..Also it does not save your progress of that run. Is there a way to fix this?

@tender lake If the game is generating error reports and you're sending them in, then we'll take a look at them; if you send another one and attach your Discord username so that I can find it, I can at least tell you if it's a technical issue we'll continue to work on, or something that can maybe be fixed another way.

#

@frosty tiger There isn't a way to change the save destination that I personally know of, but I can double-check with an engineer on Monday.

#

@hot robin Thanks for the heads up! I think it's fixed now

#

@plush summit Make sure your graphics drivers are up to date, and also try verifying your installation through the launcher - those graphics definitely aren't normal!

plush summit
#

@sharp narwhal I'll try that although I should let you know that this issue crept up after the latest patch.

sharp narwhal
#

Every time there's an update there's a chance that the installation packages won't be downloaded or installed correctly, so a verification issue would pop up around a patch!

#

@dense parcel We tried enabling cloud saves with Epic and encountered technical issues with it, so we're trying to iron those out before we re-enable them. Sorry for the inconvenience!

#

Its alright, better have it at the right moment, when it's working fine rather than now

#

Thanks for the effort you're putting into it

#

Hey is anyone else having the issue of "Remapping keyboard or Remapping Controlers locks the game in a state of "waiting for new bind" only alt+F4 works"

sweet viper
#

For some reason, the game is not saving but it is claiming my progress was saved X time ago. Iโ€™m not sure what is wrong nor how to solve it.

hearty scaffold
#

@sweet viper is your controls being save? the Save file and the control file is in the same file location.

sweet viper
#

I do not know how to check to see if my controls being saved.

hearty scaffold
#

change your keybindings and see if it saves when you reopen the game

sweet viper
#

What I did:

Start Hades > Change Report Bug in Controls for both Controller and Keyboard > Die > Respawn > Quit

Still doesnโ€™t save. Am I doing the steps incorrectly?

hearty scaffold
#

@sweet viper
wait so your controls reverted to the defualt layout right?

sweet viper
#

Let me check

#

It reverted to the default layout. However, I just booted the game to check.

hearty scaffold
#

hmm i think it is the same issue. I cant change my key layout but my game saves perfectly fine. By chance do you have cloud syncing services running on your PC?

sweet viper
#

How would I check if itโ€™s running for Hades?

hearty scaffold
#

go through each cloud syncing service's setting and check if the Documents folder is being synced

#

@sharp narwhal I wrote for support in my case and I am still waiting for a message.

sharp narwhal
#

We're not in the "office" right now, but we'll get to all support tickets on Monday! Thanks for your patience

sweet viper
#

@hearty scaffold I do not know how to browse such folders, or rather, I donโ€™t know the process.

hearty scaffold
#

@sweet viper Wait do you use things like google drive, one drive, and dropbox?

sweet viper
#

Yes, but for Hades, I do not know how I would check if such folders were being cloud synced.

hearty scaffold
#

Mac or Windows?

sweet viper
#

Windows 10

hearty scaffold
#

every cloud syncing service should show up as a mini icon on your taskbar on the bottom right hand side. right click the icons and settings should pop up

sweet viper
#

Settings > Cloud. It is on for games that support it.

hearty scaffold
#

nono not steam settings ๐Ÿ˜›

sweet viper
#

Yeah I am drawing a blank.

#

I think Iโ€™ll wait for Monday.

hearty scaffold
#

Ok GL man. Need to wait on my issue too.

#

that looks like a bug @loud hawk :P You can press f10 to report it in-game

stray elm
#

Let me know if you need anything else

stray elm
#

@slate junco I believe that change was to make it so that you couldn't be offered the boon before you had unlocked the fountains from the contractor

Hey I've been playing for a bit and i just got past the Elysium boss fight and now I'm stuck on a black screen, i don't get any input response but its not gets an unresponsive error either. I've tried closing the game and loading the save again but I still get nothing. i didn't see anything mentioning this in #h1-tech-fixes and f10 doesn't do anything either.

abstract lagoon
#

can anyone here help me with Epic Games cloud saves? :\

stray elm
#

Epic Games currently does not have cloud saves for Hades, afaik

abstract lagoon
#

I thought they'd added support for it in a recent patch... ๐Ÿ˜’

stray elm
#

I might've missed that?

abstract lagoon
#

I'll see if I can find something about it

#

@dense parcel We tried enabling cloud saves with Epic and encountered technical issues with it, so we're trying to iron those out before we re-enable them. Sorry for the inconvenience!
@sharp narwhal
Ah ๐Ÿ™‚

#

So I guess it's not enabled after all

#

Guess I'll just keep playing in my main computer hahah

#

Thx anyway ๐Ÿ™‚

Just updated Hades and all my progress is gone. Is there anything I can do?

#

I do have several files in "Saved Games > Hades", [activeProfile, Hades.log, Profile1.ctrls, Profile1.sjson]

#

Was curious how much progress I've lost since I was quite addicted to the game. Epic says Atomicrops (35 hours). Hades (12 days) squirtooh

humble vigil
#

dunno if this is like a bug or not just thought i'd mention regardless-

when I gave Sisyphus the nectar he did not have any spoken voicelines, even when i initiated a normal conversation after I excited the nectar conversation

dapper spruce
#

soo i just pressed F10 to report a bug right after i defeated the third biome boss, and it's doing the thing where the game is now a black screen again. i'm worried if i force stop the game it won't have saved and will automatically give up.... any advice?

primal whale
#

I don't know what is going on, latest update broken my game, first I had micro-stuttering now it's completely desynced ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

It's not all the time, depends of the run
