Reproduction Steps - I have the game freeze randomly during non-hangout Heart Events. There is no consistent pattern to whom, where, or when.
Repro Rate - Randomly. I had it occur three times last night, and once today
Game Platform - Steam
Game Version - v1.2-1240
Input Mode - Keyboard and mouse
CPU / GPU - AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D 8 Core / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060
Crash log - I do not have this; the game simply freezes and I am forced to close via task manager

Note: I do see other reports are made about freezes/crashes, but I wanted to clarify that mine are occurring during non-hangout events specifically.

Hello @primal token,
I'm sorry for the trouble you've encountered during the gameplay. 🙇‍♀️ Thank you for your report.

#

Could you tell us which NPC's heart event you saw when the issue happened? And, by any chance - do you have any screenshots or videos of the issue?

Unfortunately, no video nor screenshots.

The NPCs in question that I recall were Millie, Noah, Jack/Kira, and...possibly Jim/Theo/Lily. I had to do Winter 23 Y1 a few times, so unfortunately, it kind of blurs.

All of the events are 2 or 4 hearts, since I've been procrastinating terribly.

# primal token These are the same settings I've used since purchasing the game right around 1.2...

I see. Have you tried changing the Quality Preset to a different setting (like High or Medium) to see if that helps resolve the issue?

Also, could you please check if your graphics card is set to use High Performance for Coral Island?
Here’s how to do it:

  • Type Graphics Settings in the Windows Start menu.
  • Click Desktop App.
  • Add or select the Coral Island application.
  • Click Options → choose High Performance → Save.

Let us know how it goes after trying that!

So I did change my graphics card to High Performance for Coral Island. Did not change the quality preset.

BUT I might have found the problem (or it resolved on its own): When the dialogue box comes up and it types out, that irritates me because I am a fast reader, and it comes up very slow to my eyes. So I'm always click to get it to instantly show the full text. I think I was clicking too fast for the box to fully render before trying to re-render, if that makes sense.

I was able to go through two days by not clicking at all, and letting it sit for another couple of seconds. No issues whatsoever.

(Also, I figured out that it's called Typewriter Effect, and disabled that. MUCH happier.)
