[1.7.3/1.7.4] Game usually runs in unplayable state
Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2021 9:30 pm
So I seem to be having the same problem, or a similar problem, to this post: viewtopic.php?f=69&t=51625 . Though I've been told that the issue in this post was fixed in 1.7.3, so I'm not sure
Effects of the issue seem to be:
75% of the time the game boots it launches in a broken state. I think you can tell by the starting load screen taking a much longer time, but this isn't completely reliable.
In the broken state:
-All saving and loading screens take an extremely long amount of time
-The game just runs... wrong? Every single input has some chance to simply not work
-Movement by clicking the mouse somewhere acts anomalously. If you click to move to a space it stops somewhere random on the way. Maybe the paths are strange as well, but it's usually too fast to tell so I wouldn't know
-Autoexploring is also super slow. Definitely slower than manually moving around
-Combat seems to work if not a little slower? No graphical glitches other than (maybe) sounds being a little strange?
I talked to Moasseman on the discord a while ago and also tried the remedy in the forum post I linked. Complete list of what I've tried to fix this:
-Uninstalled/reinstalled the game numerous times, of course
-Swapping the exe/dlls from 1.7.0 as described in that forum post. This seems to stop it? Doing this introduces other issues, namely not being online and the occasional major graphics hiccup
-Used NVIDIA control panel to set the target GPU for all the ToME settings to the proper GPU... But there is no "set dedicated GPU" section as I've seen in other screenshots of the same settings screen. I only have one graphics card and am not on a laptop so it seems like a strange place for the issue to be? I play many other more intensive games and have no graphics issues at all
-Of course, I've made new save files, uninstalled all the addons I had, reinstalled them, etc
I have an Intel 15-8600K, GeForce GTX 1080Ti
