Bugs and troubleshooting

To avoid duplicate bug reports, please try and find your problem first by using the search function in discussions.

If you have a new bug to report or if you can't find a solution, feel free to create a new post detailing your problem as much as possible. The game generates a log file located at "%APPDATA%/Necesse/latest-log.txt", which will be very helpful if you include in your report.

It is usually much faster to get your issue resolved if you post it inside the official Discord server. You can join it by using this link: https://discord.gg/FAFgrKD

Known major bugs and issues:

> My game experiences stutters, long frame drops or closes after some time
If this happens it's often because the game isn't getting allocated enough memory. If you know your system has the required memory to run the game, a computer restart, or closing your other memory intensive programs often fixes this issue. You can also try to select the "Run without ram arguments" option when launching from your Steam library.

> I get a message saying my system doesn't support OpenGL
> My screen is black or flickering
This means that the game had trouble finding the OpenGL functions needed. You can try to update your graphics drivers. However, if that still does not fix it, your graphics card simply does not meet the minimum requirements to run the game.

> I am experiencing lag, desync or cannot connect at all through Steam
Sometimes you can get a bad connection through the Steam network. It is usually fixed by changing your Steam download server in Steam Settings -> Downloads -> Download Region dropdown. Just change it to something else nearby.
If you are playing with one other friend, you both need to do this since there is no way to tell which of you is having the problem. It may also be helpful to have it be the same as your friend.

> I don't see any main menu when I launch the game, just a panning camera
This means the game couldn't find the required graphics driver functions to properly render the game. A temporary fix is to hit F11 to exit fullscreen, but you still may run into other render bugs later in the game.

> The game closes without any info, sometimes after 15 seconds and sometimes 30 minutes
If you see an error file at the games install folder, it likely means the crash is caused by a faulty OpenGL Intel graphics driver. To be sure, check the file for "igxelpicd64.dll".
If you have a laptop with a dedicated graphics card, it means Windows has decided not to use it for the game. To fix this, you have to go into Windows graphics settings and force it like shown in this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/lJPxAKx.png
Make sure that you choose javaw.exe and not Necesse.exe.
We're looking into a workaround, but since the issue is on Intels side, it can be hard. Not a lot of games use OpenGL for graphics, so you won't be experiencing this on those.

> The game doesn't launch on my M1 mac
M1 support is currently being worked on.
Some people, including me, have reported it working out of the box. Check for an update to your Mac, install it and it may work for you too.
Others have reported it working when using Rosetta. More info on that can be found here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861

> I cannot control my character with WASD
This happens if you are using an Asian keyboard or a keyboard with different input modes. Make sure that you are in the "Latin" typing mode, and it will work.

Fair [developer] 15 Jan, 2020 @ 6:40am

I'm very sorry about this issue. Can you please paste the contents of the file located at:
%APPDATA%/Necesse/latest-log.txt
If it's too big, you can upload it to something like https://pastebin.com/ and paste the link. It would help a lot in figuring out exactly what's going wrong.
You can also join the Discord server and contact me directly through PM. Here's the invite link: https://discord.gg/FAFgrKD

Thank you very much for the report. I think I know what the problem is and I'll have time to fix it in a few hours. I'll post in here when it's fixed, thanks for the patience :)

Fair [developer] 21 May, 2020 @ 12:09pm

I've just released an update that should fix this issue (v. 0.19.26). You might have to restart Steam to get the update.
If you're planning to play on experimental, you'll have to wait for tomorrows update.
Thanks for the report, and if you have any more issues, please don't hesistate to post here :)

Another quick update. I've just released another quick hotfix as I discovered there was a problem with map items in the new update :)

Hi Fair, my friend and I were playing on my server and I had to reset it to get something working. After the reset, she wasn't able to press multiplayer anymore. Everything else worked just fine.

Fair [developer] 14 Jul, 2020 @ 1:16pm

@LAN I'd love to get a bit more information about the issue, like what was the problem with the server and did the multiplayer button just not work?
If you experience problems like this again, a restart would probably fix them. But if you still have the log of the session, I can take a look at it and get it fixed for good.
Thank you very much for the report :)

@Fair The server ran fine, sorry for the confusion. I was trying to give some background. Whenever she left the server she wasn't able to press the multiplayer button on the screen anymore. She told me she was able to press everything else though. She has also restarted her game, computer, and reinstalled it.

Edit: I managed to get the logs from her, I don't know if these will help but it's worth a shot! https://pastebin.com/Gzeg01uz Thank you for responding and attempting to fix this!

@LAN I've just pushed an update (v0.19.28) that fixes this issue. The issue was when you name a server with odd characters, and you should now be able to do so. The old server list will probably be wiped when you first try to load it though.
The experimental version will get this fix on fridays update.

Again, thank you for the report and hopefully you can play together again :)
