STILL ue crash bug, very upsetting

[Cosmosboi]

The update JUST dropped, got my hopes up, and NOPE, the one bug some of us are experiencing is still not fixed. This is really disappointing, REALLY disappointing. For a minor bug, this goes unnoticed? Guess I'm uninstalling palworld until it's dealt with. Very disappointed.

For reference, I already made a post about this

https://steamcommunity.com/app/1623730/discussions/0/4351121803603238078/

Specs do not matter, but here they are: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1155G7 @ 2.50GHz 2.50 GHz

I say they don't matter because I have played Palworld with those specs with ease on low-medium graphics with no problems

It would be better to share specs you're playing the game with & if you're using any mods so others might help you. Also I had connection server issues with my game when I updated it last time and the Support at the Palworld Discord actually walked me through and it managed to fix my issue. You can try asking for help over there as well.

You should ask in their discord for support. I was crashing today and a few weeks ago, the problem wasn't even the game it was a problem with my modern intel cpu (apparently 13th and 14th gen suck for running unreal games) and they told me what the problem was and sent me an article containing the information to help fix it.

Odds are if your crashing but 40k players are playing actively the problems your end. Even if i wish that wasnt the case because god it would be easier if they could fix my ♥♥♥♥ lol.

It's not just me with this problem, there's others who have better specs than I and still have this problem.

Unless you give them your save file its practically impossible for them to properly know what is causing this issue for YOUR account/character specifically, kind of getting disappointed over something that isn't exactly something that can instantly be fixed the moment one complains.

This has been happening for months now, it’s not just a problem that has now surfaced. There’s multiple people from months before it happened to me with the same issue. So pretty safe to say that there should have been a fix by now.

I just love the update, so much content.

I had so many games that crashed with UE5. What fixed my problems is deactivating the xmp profile in bios and underclocking my cpu 100mhz lower. I don't know what of the two factors fixed all the crashes but I will test it out. I found this solution in the web. Never crashed again on any game. Also it did not change much in FPS. Lords of the fallen now even runs smoother. Had also crashes in Banishers and Enshrouded (I think this is no UE5 title).

in your case, your specs are below minimum in the gpu department, assuming you are using intel xe graphics

you can seek support from their discord directly but idk man it doesn't help your case if you are below the minimum specs

it runs like sub 40 fps in the starting area on 720p low, it's pretty bad imo

How may I do this?

I haven't played in months. Reinstalled the game because of the update last night and now I continually get this crash when trying to load a character or make a new world. Online or offline. 165 hours with no issues and now I am unable to play the game any longer.

Apparently this issue isn't important enough for other pal players or the devs themselves to take seriously, this issue has been going on for months apparently and no one has any real answer

Certain Intel processors are attributed to stability issues and crashing with programs in the Unreal Engine, and it is usually due to their thermal functions. If you enter BIOS, check to see if PL1 and PL2 for your processor's power limits are the same. If they are, lower PL1 to roughly half the power of PL2. Some motherboards default to have these chips use the maximum wattage for both power limits, even though intel recommends the default being what I just described.

Do keep in mind that doing this will effectively lower the maximum sustained clocking speed. You might still briefly reach the same speeds, but you won't be able to keep it there for longer periods. Unfortunately, this isn't always an option, and some chips don't allow changing their voltage.

I would *not* recommend underclocking to 100mhz, as you would effectively turn your PC into one from the 90s.


Oh and if you don't know how to access your BIOS/UEFI: It's done on the initial powering up of your computer. Before the operating system starts up, you (usually) press either F2 or F12 (depending on the manufacturer). and it will launch into BIOS instead of Windows/Mac/Linux/etc. If your monitor is on before your computer turns on, you should briefly see something displayed which will include telling you what button to press. This is your motherboard's firmware, and is used to control the majority of your hardware settings, install operating systems, change boot order, etc.

If your laptop (I assume this is a laptop due to the processor) has issues with cooling, or is just a passive cooling design, I would recommend changing the TDP to be a little bit lower than whatever the manufacturer set, as a lot of them will set it to the maximum possible despite not having enough cooling.

The Intel TDP default for that chip is between 12-28W. If it is at 28W, consider dropping it to 25 or 24. This will slightly lower the maximum overclocking speeds, but you should still get roughly up to 4GHz.
