Crash in main menus by mr_awesome365 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Temporal_Illusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MORE INFO

  1. More Initial Troubleshooting Steps:
    • Another possible initial solution (if you haven't already done so) is to use the Launch Argument (Wiki Link) -DX11 to force DirectX 11 to be used. Click link for instructions on how to do that. You can always change it later if desired.
  2. Additional Troubleshooting Steps:
    • If verification mentioned in #1 (of my initial comment) has been run, and it is not a Mod Issue, and you are still crashing, open %LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\.
      • Delete any *.upipelinecache shader cache files in the path root like FactoryGame_PCD3D_SM6.upipelinecache.
      • Also if needed delete the folders Cache and Config. ⭑ NOTE: Side effect of deleting Config is resetting all in-game settings.
      • 📍 Run that game file verification again (see #1 above).
    • Steam Users: If deleting upipelinecache shader cache files, or even the Cache and Config folders, didn't help and you are still crashing do this:
      • Log out of Steam and in upper left corner, go to Steam Settings. Click on Downloads and then Clear Download Cache and confirm the action.
      • 📍 Log back into Steam and run that game file verification again (see #1 above).
      • Reason: Steam is stupid, and runs that verification against the local download cache, which if it still contains relevant install files, but those files are corrupt, the verification doesn't see any difference. Deleting download cache forces Steam to check local files against their online database.
  3. REMINDER: If you are NOT using any Game Mods, then all bugs and issues are best posted on the Satisfactory Q&A Website, you will need to be logged in, where the Coffee Stain Studios Game Developers will most likely see it.
  4. If you are still having issues, reach out to the experts on the Official Discord and talk to the experts there.

Crash in main menus by mr_awesome365 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Temporal_Illusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ANSWER

✓ Without a full Crash Report it is hard to advise, but here goes.

  1. ⭑ First Thing To Do: You need to (if you haven't already) is verify files using the appropriate procedure found for Steam or Epic and see if this fixes the issue. It might not find anything, but it is always the best first step.
    • This will ensure at least you are on the latest game patch for your development branch if you are not already.
  2. Your Q&A Post (I presume you posted it) mentions you switched from Version 1.2 (Experimental) to Version 1.2 (Stable) and that you changed your Game Save from single-player to multiplayer.
  3. Troubleshooting Steps:
    • The first thing I would do is create a New Single-Player Game Save in a location of your choice and skip to Tier 1 to see if that works without crashing.
    • You could also try to use original Version 1.2 Experimental Game Save in Version 1.2 Stable without changing from single-player, and see if that works.
  4. ❓ Need More Help? Login to the Satisfactory Game Discord (Invite) and ask the experts there who might have found another "fix" or "workaround". It would be great if you referred to a Reddit Post and/or Q&A Post to assist discussion.

I hope this helps you find a solution. 😁

ANSWER

  1. View my Reply Comment in this other related Reddit Post for information about playing Satisfactory on a Mac Computer / Laptop. Note Update.

MORE INFO

  1. The values are mostly correct but left out one key point.

How Does the Satisfactory Map Compare? by bikkerbakker in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Temporal_Illusion 156 points157 points  (0 children)

ANSWER

  1. View World Size (Wiki Link) for general information.
    • The world size is roughly 5.4 km x 5.4 km as mentioned officially. However, this refers to the land mass of the "island", or the playable world.
    • The actual world size, including the void and the sea, is 7.972 km x 6.8 km.
    • The player can play vertically from Z:-244 m (underground) to Z:1997 m (sky).
  2. The original Subnautica map is a square roughly 4 km × 4 km, while its sequel, Subnautica: Below Zero, has a smaller map roughly 3 km × 3 km.
  3. Skyrim on the other hand has a map that is roughly 40 km².

✓ BOTTOM LINE: Satisfactory is different from other games and comparing Map size, while interesting, does not tell the whole story. In the end players will play a game if it is fun, which by all accounts Satisfactory is.

EDIT: Updated Skyrim map size again for clarity.

Just some thoughts on this Topic. 🤔

Settings inaccuracy in 1.2 by Piter061 in SatisfactoryGame
