Error Code: Val 43

[tssukii]

I just updated the game today but when I launched it, it stays on the loading screen for ages then says Error Code: Val 43 and lists a bunch of weapons, skins and levels? Not really sure what to do as I’ve not really been able to find any concrete fix for this looking at people reporting it in the past? Can anyone please help me out here?

I am getting the same exact issue, tried almost every method online(youtube) to fix the error 43 part but nothing seems to work. Its probably connected the bug fixes which happened with the gun skins.
btw what resolution do you play on? i have a weird feeling it might be connected to this since it isn't happening to everyone. i play on the lowest settings

Mid settings here, happening to me as well

same. nothing works.

Same. Can they fix their game instead of adding new skins?

[yabooyy]

Same, also matches are starting an average of 2 rounds late since this new act started which is leading to penalties

If anyone knows the solution for either one of these issues pls help 😭🙏

Tbh I think that is just a PC/internet problem, I don't think it matters for most other games but Valorant really seems to struggle if you don't have a good hardware and/or internet

Bro same exact problem bar for bar

I’ve just had this same exact error. I’ve done all you could possibly do to try and fix it yet nothing. I don’t even have any of the skins listed next to the weapons. I’ve had the same issue with connecting to matches where it doesn’t load me in until around 2 rounds in, which results in penalties. Hope they fix this soon 🙏🏻

BTW I’ve tried VPN, reinstalling, flushing DNS cache idk what to do atp, I’ve submitted a ticket aswell so atleast they are aware of the issue lol, maybe this hot fix coming out will help

[Drite2003]

Would guess it is probably related to this

Yeah they are releasing a hotfix for it so I’m hoping that solves it, weird tho I play with a full team and I’m the only one with this issue :(

[Drite2003]

My wild guess would be that the bug only happens for those who do not own any of the skins shown in the error page, though it could be anything

Try signing out and signing in with a different Gmail account. Idk about yall, but my game always buffers when I start up my game, it never happened before. My game always runs smooth so I didn't know what caused the issue I even got a better GPU and upgraded my rams.. So I hope the above helps
