Warhammer: Darktide Dev Tracker

This is usually the result of bad routing, is one of you able to connect your PC to a mobile hotpot only for a short period to see if you can connect whilst under another connection?

Could you try wiping your Darktide AppData directory?

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark
4. Delete Darktide directory

Hi @nimnot,

A couple of suggestions here -

Your GPU drivers are quite outdated - can you please try updating. Please perform a clean installation which will ensure all previous versions have been removed:

This one is on our radar and should be resolved in our upcoming patch. Thanks!

I’ve removed the madness interwoven in the thread, now please keep this on topic or it’ll be either locked up (sadge) or off topic posters given a time out.

yes.

No one in this thread is multiboxing accounts to report (it’s super easy for us to see).

If multiple people are reporting posts, then look at the posts. Not those reporting them

Anything that isn’t on topic of ‘what is depth’ is off topic.

Anything that’s just combative is inappropriate.

Anything unrelated to anything is spam.

Please stay on topic. It’s an interesting discussion being mired by folks fighting each other.

I apologise for the delayed responses but I’m sure you can understand we’ve been incredibly busy.

To make sure you receive responses in a timely manner I recommend contacting us via the Support Portal which I understand you say you’ve already done, but looking up your email address produces no results.

I was also under the impression you wanted a refund based on your previous response.

This is a very niche issue that I don’t have the answers for but I can continue to press this with development for potential solutions.

Thank you for the report Chris. Would it be possible for you to locate and upload the console log from that session for us to take a look at?

How to upload a Console Log:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark\Darktide\console_logs
4. Locate the console log that corresponds with the session in which the issue occurred, by looking at the timestamps in the log names
5. Upload here

New build deployed where only portraits are disabled. Weapons and cosmetics should be back on this one.

The current experimental have no portraits. It’s part of the experiment. I should have probably mentioned this. But this is the nature of the experimental build. I experiment and see what works. Since this GPU hang can’t be reliably reproduced in a controlled environment I need to go wide and block out parts of the engine which we suspect. Currently it has lead us to the portrait rendering system and I want to verify that it helps by disabling this system completely. Currently only one part of it is disabled, which is why I still can see some hangs comming in. But I’m planning on disabling the other part as well and see if that does it. Then we know where to dig in and figure out what is going wrong.

This article here should help with your issue:

Fix for bluetooth headphones or speaker using hands-free audio when you only want normal audio output, not hands free

Also please hop over to the experimental branch! This is a rare one, and there’s a lot of new debugging info added to shine more light on the issue when this happens.

I missed this initially, but your GPU drivers are outdated by more than a year.
