BUG REPORT THREAD

[michal.puczynski]

Put your bugs here. Bless you!

How to make a good bug report that will help the devs?

1. Show your PC specs
2. Describe the problem
3. Describe the steps you took before the problem occured
4. If you can, tell us if the problem repeated or was a one-time thing

If you're experiencing a grey / flickering image with nothing in particular, try setting FOV in the settings and see if it works before reporting.

Possible anwers to frequent problems (worth checking out!): https://steamcommunity.com/app/1708850/discussions/0/4348869643726188849/

Patch in the works!

As of today the game closes just like that and then I get an AMD fatal driver error. The drivers are up to date.

I've already tried the following:

+ Game reinstalled
+ Game checked for errors
+ Tried all settings (graphics quality)
+ New score Started

Nothing has helped so far, other games work fine

My system:
✘ Processor: INTEL Core i7-10700KF @ 5.1GHz (8 cores/16 threads)
✘ Graphics card: AMD Radeon MSI RX 6800 XT OC - 16GB X TRIO
✘ Motherboard: MSI Z590 Pro WIFI
✘ RAM: 32GB DDR4 RAM

And the Moonshiner wont talk to me. My mission is sending me there tho

Game randomly crashed once while driving the first little boat

[baba roga]

saving benitas brother he stops at the door and wont go in. happened multiple times he just stops at the door way and you cant talk to her to complete the quest. also have a couple task stuck even though i completed them. talking to the moonshiner i have paid and got the recipe. and blowing up the gas tank optional objective i did the main objective but the optional is still there and wount let me blow the tanks to try finishing it anymore. all in multiplayer. it seems the coop is bugged and needs more work because i have a long list of stuff in multiplayer that needs fixed or is bugged.

When I try to join my friends coop game the game before a loading screen shows some info from the save then it loads for a bit. Then when it fully loads into the game my inventory sometimes is visible. Sometimes is not and it seems as if everything is lagging and everything takes a while to synch up. Its only affecting me and not my other coop partner or the host.

- Several locations around the world that I try to parkour which just lead to odd sliding off of medium rocks or hills. I like the environment layout giving much more freedom to movement however I feel like while DDS had much more restricted movement routes, those routes still felt solid and like they restricted pursuits evenly for both those running and those chasing. With the inconsistency of DDS2's terrain I have mixed feelings on it.

- Almost majority of the time when I parkour the screen seems to snap in a jarring way that causes some screen elements to pop in and out Ive noticed. The large rocks in front of the starter bunker path up the hill side seem to be the worst which I dont remember that being the case in the demo.

- Im not sure if it is me not understanding game mechanics properly or if it is game design but a 3 inch fall leads to a small percentage of health damage and a loud grunt everytime. Given how much of the map is open and provides much more verticality with the mention of "parkour" I would hope the character could endure a step down off the curb of the road without needing to yell out in pain.

- I can not figure out what the use for the mortar and pestle or the coffee grinder are since these cannot be placed in any hideout on any tables, floors, or outsides. Once again I an unsure if this is operator error though.

- One of my biggest issues has got to be the fact half of my game is in English and the other half is in Polish. Most of every popup or prompt I get appears to me in Polish and I have had to start using google translate on my phone just to figure out basic game prompts or messages.

- Another huge issue is the dealers. I am fair enough into the game to be working on my rep with Pedro. I have taken drugs to influencers and noticed I never have money to pickup with them. Checked some forums and saw a dev mention it goes to the pawn shop automatically. I thought to myself that works great for me. However, I have 1 dealer on Small Island, 2 on Arch, and just got 1 in Pedro's territory. Out of 4 dealers only 1 generates money. The very first dealer I unlocked which I think his name is Ruben. All other dealers generate no money. I made sure to give all dealers plenty of stock and have received no messages they are out of supplies because I keep them constantly stocked. I have no way to tell exactly how much of what they have and have 3 dealers not generating ANY money. It isnt going to any safes automatically either and I cant request any drops or pickup in person because there is NO money. Given how much of a core mechanic of the game this is and the fact it is an issue with a subject literally in the games title, it has become unplayable for me until it can get patched.

Love the game still. Played DDS for a ton of hours and have been watching for this release since the announcement first dropped. I am hoping I can come home from work to see a steam announcement of a patch for this game and see at least some of these bigger issues in those patch notes fixed.

The dock by the pawn shop in the Archipelago district spawns you under water when you get out. The boat being driven when this happens is the rib motorboat de luxe. There is no way to get out of the water. You can walk around, but you walk under the island and cannot resurface.

1. Doesn't matter
2. In multiplayer my friend joins me and always has fog of war. Doesn't matter if he opened whole map before disconnect
3. Start game -> invite friend -> friend open a bit of map -> friend disconnect -> friend connect -> full map in fog of war

I got this same issue too, can't speak to Gabriel when all the quests lead up to him now

[Vazsholik]

Had pocets full, changed clothes before emptying pocets. alot of stuff gone, tried changing back, nothing in clothes. might be smart to have a place that the stuff goes if one changes before remembering to empty pockets.

The entire system crashes after 30-60 minutes of gaming. I updated all drivers, tried different graphics and resolution settings, restored the game files on Stem and even reinstalled the game, but the problem still persists. There is no problem with any other game, even with higher hardware requirements.
In addition, some hideout upgrades are not saved after restarting the game and have to be purchased again.

Distributors won't resupply dealers.
Started happening once I introduced a mix 70%Amp 30%Soda. I dead dropped the amp mix to all dealers and put the mix in all of the hideouts where I have distributors. Now distributors won't resupply with ANY drug.

For the time, we can suggest the following:

Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure your graphics card drivers are up-to-date. Visit the manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) to download and install the latest drivers.
Update Operating System: Make sure your operating system is fully updated with the latest patches and updates.
Check Minimum System Requirements: Verify that your PC meets the minimum system requirements for the game. Compare your hardware specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM) with those recommended.
Adjust Graphics Settings: Lower the in-game graphics settings (such as resolution, texture quality, shadows) to improve performance. Experiment with different settings to find a balance between visuals and performance.
Close Background Applications: Close any unnecessary background applications and processes that may be consuming CPU, memory, or network resources.
Verify Game Files: Verify the integrity of game files to check for and repair any corrupted files that may be causing issues.
Update DirectX: Ensure you have the latest version of DirectX (Windows). These libraries are crucial for rendering graphics in games.
Reinstall the Game: As a last resort, try reinstalling the game. This can resolve any corrupted files that might be causing problems.
Delete the Game's AppData Folder: Deleting the game's AppData folder can resolve issues related to corrupted configuration files. To do this, navigate to C:\Users[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\DrugDealerSimulator2 and delete the folder. Make sure to back up any important data before doing so.

Just has a look and i dont actually have a folder for this, maybe this explains why i cant change settings or create a cartel
