Chapter 3 Fountain Puzzle Fatal Error
Hi Devs

so far, AMAZING game. it really gives the vibe of classic zombie horror games.
one thing though, during the fountain puzzle in chapter, as soon as I try to interact with the puzzle, a fatal error pops up and the game crashes.

I hope this comes to your attention.

We will look into this. If you can give as the error you get on the crash would be amazing

same error, and it is not visable in the text box when it happens for me. it seems to happen when I examine the dials at the fountain and then press any button. so far it has happened with two of the four dials. I am very tired of fighting that courtyard fight........

Update: the error only happens for me when touching the joysticks of a controler after interacting with the dials. the error code is still obscured, but I can keep going in the game. hope it helps.

Hi Diego

Thanks for your quick response,

The pop up title displays” THE UE4-Daymare_MASTER Game has crashed and will..”
In the description in only display “fatal error”

Hope this helps

I unfortunately have this same problem, crashed in between the gameplay and looking at the dials to spin it. On any one of them if the transition between gameplay and puzzle hiccups for me I get a fatal error and the game crashes. I have a newer computer so my requirements are overkill. Thanks any way anybody can help.

This is not a problem with the PC specs, i think the CPU overloads, can you check if it goes up to 100% before the crash?
I had the same problem (one of many). Daymare seems to have a problem with Nvidia and Intel. When I used Radeon and AMD it worked.
Yeah. I'm having this problem right now during the fountain puzzle ("UE4-Daymare_MASTER Game has crashed")
Hello I am also having this issue too, at the exact part in the park when I examine the dials for the puzzle and I try to use my controller joystick to rotate the dials
UPDATE!! I figured out a quick solution to bypassing this error.

you HAVE TO USE keyboard and mouse to solve this puzzle, if you use your controller then you get the fatal error.

so dispatch all the monsters in the park using your controller, then unplug the controller and solve the puzzle with keyboard and mouse.

Hello!
Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the inconvenience.

Unfortunately, is not something we can solve at the moment.
We'll try to work on it when possible.
Thank you so much for playing and enjoying the game!

Wow, what a bug. I really like the game but this is kinda ridiculous to leave in the game.

Got 3 crash there while trying to figure out the puzzle for an hour, turn out in french, the subtiles for the puzzle are wrong, it was reported in a old thread here, the dev saw it but they never bothered to fix it, amazing.

Hello!
Sorry but not always it's possible to fix everything or is not something depending only on us.
We hope you managed to move on and enjoy the rest of the game. Sorry for the inconvenience.
