  1. "bueldia foret-aye." Huh, must be Italian.
  2. Just note that the windows reliability report indicates hardware failure rather than a software issue -- and most of these crashes seem to involve textures. If you're having crashes in other games or programs, something like bad ram, a bad pcie lane, or gpu seems likely. (Power and driver issues can cause similar errors -- it's hard to diagnose.) Even if not, there's not much else we can do beyond point this out. :/ Went through this recently with a 3080. Took me months to accept it was the card, not something else, cause it was sporadic and only affected one game at first. It happens.
  3. Understandable, but I'm at a loss as to what. The last update to the game would have been in December 2022, so if it only started misbehaving in December 2023, it's probably something that changed on your computer. What though, is very hard to know. For example, is the additional 4 GB of Samsung(or kingston ram) new? If it's mismatched, that could affect performance to some extent. If not, maybe it's getting hotter than it used to and just needs a dusting or new thermal paste? Perhaps the latest Intel driver is just bugged; maybe reverting to an older one will help (though I'd be cautious here -- normally these CPUs won't run the game at all). Just throwing some ideas out there, though.
  4. You're going to have a very hard playing the game with that system, I'm sorry to say. HD Graphics never played well with the game, to the point that we removed integrated graphics from our minimum requirements at all. But, generally the cuttoff is HD 3000/4000; on yours, I'm sorry to say, it shouldn't be able to run at all. This likely means it's doing almost everything with software rendering; that's very slow. The way Intel integrated graphics works on Windows involves doubling the amount of RAM the game needs for its textures; so you'll be losing at least 2-4 GB of system RAM to just that. In addition, the Intel GPU has been given 2.5 GB of "dedicated" system RAM. The game then uses 2-3 GB for its heap. Windows 10 will also use at least 1 GB (more likely 2). You can see why you'd run out quickly? All I can really recommend is dual booting Linux or drastically cutting down any performance related settings in-game. If your friend has a dedicated GPU with around 1-2 GB of RAM, it'd make all the difference, despite it being an older system. Something like a Radeon 5760 from 2010, for example, should be able to run the game (at least on Windows Vista, maybe 8).
  5. Steam is having difficulties right now. There's nothing anyone can do but wait for them to resolve whatever issues are affecting their network.
  6. Unfortunately, I don't have any other suggestions. But if we ever find something, I've got this thread bookmarked.
  7. Sometimes it's down to custom cursors, desktop replacement programs, using the trails option for your mouse pointer, or windows getting a little confused when hdr is enabled ( windows key + alt + b will manually turn it off, then press the combo again to turn it back on, often restoring the missing cursor for me). it makes it really hard to know what really is happening beyond something is going wrong at the OS level with the way it draws the mouse pointer.
  8. Tbh, it could be a lot of things. It's hard to guess without a video of your issue. In general ... it could any of the following: - Mods (including those that claim to fix things) - A server running out of RAM - A server becoming overwhelmed for some reason - An admin teasing someone with admin abilities, such as spawning zombies - Desync between two nearby players and/or lag (wireless connections are especially prone to this) - If it only happens after a restart, then most likely it'd be from the server host (or hosting service) shutting down the sever improperly, without calling save and quit, causing file corruption - If zombies are set very high, this can also put additional strain on the server and cause culling to happen far more often; things can get weird If it's very rare, it'll be even harder to guess.
  9. No update to give: We don't host servers, individual users do. Steam provides matchmaking services and a means to make connections; any problems on their end will result in players not being able to connect to (Steam-enabled) servers.
  10. That's just Steam updating its own files or third party libraries used by games.
  11. Am I mistaken, or is there a rifle/pistol shot at the exact same time as they spawn? Makes me feel like there's some sort of intentionality there? Like an event or something that's designed to let you know it's happening. What mods are you using? Some of those twitch integration mods do purposely allow viewers to screw with you, right? assuming what you're showing in the video is identical.
  12. Turn off mod. If there's no problem anymore (ideally start a new game to verify this), then it's the mod.
  13. Yes, it's the right email address. If you haven't in a while, you might want to give Stan another listen. Kinda makes me a teensy bit worried to send someone into the spambox to look.
  14. I mean, you're welcome to use your imagination to fill in any gaps that you'd like? But just wanting something simply isn't enough to justify doing it. As is, we're going to have enough problems with large fields of crops or tons of items on the ground, without having to update the temperature of everything in existence regularly. It's just a bad move. If this were the Long Dark, maybe it'd make more sense? But it's not like we're hurting for food, here.
