Too many campfires causing PV to crash?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

TLD has run flawlessly for me for nearly 500 hours. I got crazy one day and made a ginormous "HELP" sign in the snow with campfires next to the Pleasant Valley Farmhouse. There is a video link below.

All was fine and dandy until I completely finished the sign. I went into the farmhouse to patiently wait for my rescue chopper. Upon exiting the farmhouse I promptly crashed straight to my desktop accompanied by one of those audible "dings" that is your computers way of telling you it just had a stroke.

There is a possibility this is a coincidence but it's a amazing one if it is. The game never crashed for me before this in about 500 hours of gameplay. Now, with the campfire sign in the farmhouse yard, the game crashes about half the time I "load" into the Pleasant valley map, which is usually when exiting the farmhouse. After finishing the sign, the game has also crashed when ENTERING the farmhouse, and twice when simply wandering around outside in PV. It also crashed once when entering PV from the cave (from Mystery Lake). The crashes were limited to PV, which fortified my suspicion of the camp fire sign being the culprit, but I did crash once when exiting the dam into Mystery Lake. That was the only time the game has crashed outside of PV for me and I have spent many hours in ML and CH since completion of the sign.

In total, the game has crashed approximately 20-30 times, all but once in PV and never before the sign was finished. Every time it crashed, an "oops" notification/window pops up on my desktop that says the game has crashed and that the devs would appreciate if I sent them the "game crash folder" or something to that effect.

I will send these files, but am not sure where to find them on my PC or where to send them.

If any more information is needed to investigate this bug, just let me know.

Maybe I just shouldn't have lit so damn many campfires :D

You may have to click multiple times on the video below to get it to work. I did in testing it anyway.

Have the campfires disappeared since you have been to other areas? Also, could you post your debug log? On PC, the log is written to the data directory for the game. For Steam, this would look like: C:\TheDirectoryYouInstalledSteamTo\steamapps\common\TheLongDark\tld_Data\output_log.txt

For Mac, the debug log is written to: ~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log Note that ~ above is your home folder (little house icon).

Hi Melody,

The Campfires still persist. I'm on PC. Here is the debug log. I hope it helps.

If you haven't tried this already, this might help: In steam library left click on the Long Dark, select Properties, click the tab "Local Files" and press "verify integrity of game Cache". Let me know if that works!
