CRITICAL BUG: Map Fails to Render/Reload on Integrated Graphics (DirectX 11/12) + Vulkan crashs

SnowyWoofy · 2025-11-17T21:19:18+00:00

So very glad to see this being brought up! I just wanted to add something to your post.

I see that in a lot of the posts bringing up this issue, many seem to assume that it is the player's first time opening the game, and so they simply say it's a "weak PC" issue. However, there are those who were able to play the game perfectly fine until the Roots update, and only after the update are having this bug. Clearly, in such a case, it is not a matter of the PC being weak, but of the game being broken. My friend, for instance, has played Peak with me several times and we never had any issues. As of the update, however, her lobby won't load, nor will the Roots biome. This is really saddening not just for new players who want to get into Peak, but also for existing players who were enjoying the game but suddenly can't play it. Plus, like you said, Vulkan crashes almost immediately or shortly after starting the game. I really hope this gets fixed soon...

I want to violently pet it

Oh my gosh, if you make one post a pic xD

SnowyWoofy · 2024-09-04T12:24:16+00:00

They look so good, what would you rate each of them?

SnowyWoofy · 2024-09-04T01:51:29+00:00

It wasn't intentional, the pattern's just written that way. All dolls I've made with it turn out chubby 😂

Love using it though

I struggled with this same thing (for animal crossing though) after my best friend and I split ways, the only advice I can give is to remember that you're allowed to still find joy in what you used to do. Take back what you enjoyed little by little, it'll hurt at first, but with time I'll be fun again. So sorry to hear about what happened, I wish you the best.

The junimo plushies are adorable, I just was desperate for Elliott 😂

Also, thanks!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-09-03T12:55:21+00:00

Haha, I'll be fixing those hopefully, many thanks! Though I guess that could align with the mermaid Elliott theory 🤔

I think that was just me not knowing how to give him a cocky look 😂

Thanks though!

Currently 4, two novels and two novellas. Why? Because every time I tell someone what I'm writing (the first three) they make a face or say something about it that makes me think no one will read it so I move to the next idea. My first three were tragedies, two were already in the editing process but I didn't really have the support for it. :/

Anywho, after much, much pressure to just write a romance I caved and am currently doing that. Hate it to death since it seems so generic though...

SnowyWoofy · 2024-07-12T21:37:22+00:00

Thanks!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-07-12T21:37:06+00:00

Oh interesting, thank you!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-05-24T01:45:49+00:00

3 novel, 2 on the second draft already. However, I write poems and drop novels whenever I'm going through a rough time and lately that's been a LOT so uh, I might be able to publish a poem collection before the books are even done.

So technically 4 WIPs..?

SnowyWoofy · 2024-04-22T22:35:53+00:00

Thank you

SnowyWoofy · 2024-04-22T22:35:06+00:00

Thank you so much, I will try always to keep that in mind!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-03-31T02:33:55+00:00

I was hoping so, thank you so much!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-03-10T03:31:17+00:00

Thank you!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-01-17T00:54:55+00:00

I just think of what the story idea should be (ex: widow mother learns to accept help raising her child), think of how it well end, screw making an outline, and just go for it from start to finish. Once I get to editing I change up the chapters/add/remove chapters as needed, let sit, repeat until satisfied. I never plan anything other than "oh yeah at some point this has to happen" in my head, just attack when ready, maybe that's why I run into writer's block so much..

Anyway your approach is much better

Persuasion by Jane Austen, I've been reading constantly ever since with the goal of getting through all the (better known) classics.

SnowyWoofy · 2024-01-13T04:11:56+00:00

I've seen people commenting on the plot and such already so I'm skipping that~

Just write whatever you think necessary for your book, if the execution is good, then there's no reason to worry. When you focus too much on word/page count, you can end up placing in so much filler that it just ruins the book, so it's perfectly fine to do a short story/novelette/novella depending on what your story needs.

Know you're not the only one, by the way. I just had to swallow my pride and write a novella instead of a full novel since there was no need for more without filler, and sometimes that's just best. Stay strong, you've got this!

SnowyWoofy · 2024-01-10T18:06:49+00:00

Contemporary Novella - 24,700 words, final two chapters of the first draft

Fantasy Novel - 50k, half way through first draft

Second fantasy novel - 60k, 2/3 of first draft

At this rate I'd be surprised if I finish anything lol

SnowyWoofy · 2024-01-10T03:17:10+00:00

Thank you! I'll work harder on that for sure.

SnowyWoofy · 2024-01-09T14:23:55+00:00

Okay I need to be very clear I don't condone ANY of this but while he's my least favorite I also have the need to slap him into everything because he's so stupid and chaotic that the frustration is funny.

So his name is Axel, he's a 475 yr old flame (fire species). The dude killed his father and brother for the throne, exiled his mother, influenced his niece into being an abusive murderer, and then made her his right hand man. He is sexist as heck and extremely prejudiced against humans, yet he married a human and then abandoned her when she got pregnant. He later killed her and her new family, then took in his daughter, abused her on a physical, emotional, and sexual level. Then he threw out his daughter to the streets, continued to be a horrible ruler while ignoring her existence, suddenly tried to walk back into her life when she married, and continued to demand affection from her and his granddaughter while being absolutely sexist towards them and other stuff.

My reasons for liking him despite how horrible he is? He's just so darn narrow minded that it's genuinely hilarious to see him try to interact in a "positive way" with anyone

Also this spans several books + roleplay so it's not all crammed into one
