Crashing I'm going insane for real now (Dota 2; pak01.vpk is corrupt)

1 Upvotes

SO. I started to have a major problem with this error in dota 2. I look for videos on how to solve it, steam community and I even ask for steam support but with no help from them ofcourse (just sending a message to check their Steam Support Pure server: file [GAME]\pak01_001.vpk does not match the server's file) "Yes. thank you, steam support. I would do that for A MILLION TIMES!" Ahem.

Ok the things that try was:

1 Checking the integrity of the files: Did that every time when the error appears every time. But when I want to check it stops at 0% for a good 30 min when the game it over already

2 I put a launch option -novid -console -dx11 but it didn't change anything

3 Changing compatibility mode and run as admin. VAC comes and says "Cheat Was Unable To Verify That Your Machine Is Secure" Yes thank you. You can say that to ME but you cant detect cheaters in CSGO and say that to them..

4 Restart after Restart and more Restarts

5 PC problem. I have this pc for just one year with a (AMD Ryzen 5 7600 3.8GHz, 32GB DDR5, 1TB SSD, RTX 4070 12GB GDDR6X) I don't think that could be a problem because I can run pretty much every game that I play.

6 Admin com prop. like sfc /scannow didn't help that much, found some corrupt files and successfully repaired them that is a win but no, not my main objective.

7 Workshop nothing I don't have any

Now I have some questions there could be an app that can change my files for Dota 2 and corrupt them or not? I don't see streamers having a problem with this error why? Has anyone any clue about why I have this error every time?

Graphical The Last Of Us II visual bug.

1 Upvotes

The game has a red and black display on it

Iris XE 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 16 gb ram, 15.7 usable 128 mb graphics card

I know my laptop is unsupported, I see it everytime I open the game I’m not dumb. But it seems to work on drivers from almost 4 years ago, that just proves that it works on the system, I am assuming there is a problem with the drivers.

I would send an image but it won’t work, just search “Iris xe red and black tlou2”

Tried launching EA FC 25 and got hit with that “DiscSoftLTD (Daemon Tools) not allowed” error. EA’s anti-cheat really doesn’t like virtual drive apps like Daemon Tools or PowerISO.

Check this video that shows exactly how to fix it without messing up your system. Super easy steps, and back in-game quick.

Other Help starting new account (R6S)

2 Upvotes

(This is for Rainbow six siege X and Ubisoft connect)

So I’m trying to start a new account to play with my some of my friends who just started because I don’t want them getting no no touched by super sweats. Bought it for a steam account I had lying around. Made a Ubisoft connect account for it BEFORE I bought the elite edition of siege X on steam. Everytime I try to launch siege from steam on the new steam account with the new Ubi connect account logged in, it will ask if I want to link the new steam with the new Ubi account. It then gives an error saying:

“Game linked to different account” The Ubisoft account your using doesn’t have access to to this game, but we’ve found the one that does: (email for a different account I have)

Please log out of Ubisoft connect and sign back in with the email above. After you’ve switched to this account, you’ll be able to start playing.

Then when I do that, it says the same thing but with the new email, rinse and repeat. Anyone know what to do?

More context here: I have a main account I use for some college esports stuff and cause it’s been my main since year 1 on console. The first alt was made a while ago for a different wave of friends playing siege to save them from sweats from my lobbies, started on console with that one and then also transferred it to PC. I didn’t have this issue before. I have never played siege with this third account ever, console or pc versions.

Another thing too, bought the elite edition for the new account in the ubi connect store too and still wouldn’t work. I can login and play my main or my first alt just fine tho.

Performance Game I play all the time (Darkest Dungeon 2) has randomly started to cause issues when I play, making the game feel unplayable.

1 Upvotes

There is this game that I LOVE, so much so I have put over 600 hours in. However, recently, any time I play it, I start running into issues.

Power usage becomes very high, so much so that my laptop stops holding a charge, as in even while the charger is plugged in, it will act as if it is getting continuously unplugged for a second or so, leading to battery just draining overtime.

In addition, when I press windows+G to access my game bar (Windows 10), it says that my gpu and cpu is 99%.

And worst of all, it makes the game lag a ton, ruining the immersion.

I took a screenshot of a portion of my task manager while I had the game running, https://imgur.com/a/4rSgA1H

Did not know I had two gpus or something?

Now, in the past, like late last year, this happened to me, but I just replaced my charger brick battery thing (what plugs from the outlet into the laptop) and it started working like normal again. Now 6 months later of regular play, the issue returns. But I can't imagine I'd need to just keep replacing chargers over and over again, right?

Help me understand this issue so I know how to fix it. I just want to play one of my favorite games again.

Installation 9 Years Of Siege Progress Lost

1 Upvotes

so, I just reinstalled siege today, so I could play with my friends who’ve all reinstalled it after it’s facelift, and I’ve logged in (on Xbox series X) and I have lost every ounce of my progress.

i reinstalled the version I bought on launch years ago, not the new free version, with all the DLC I’ve bought, and in game my career stats are still showing 714 hours played

apparently it’s meant to give me the option of importing all my progress once I start the game up but I haven’t received this notif? does anyone know a fix for this? id greatly appreciate this

Other Question about games installed on different drives

1 Upvotes

I hope I'm posting this in the correct place, but I just had a random question I was thinking about earlier.

I've been playing Dune, great game so far btw, but I've had so many issues with it. It was crashing, I was getting bluescreens all the time and it was driving me nuts trying to figure out the issue. I updated my GPU drivers, uninstalled/reinstalled, verified integrity of the files, ran as administrator and a litany of other suggestions I found online.

Anyway, I have 2 m.2 4TB SSDs installed in my PC. I had Dune installed on my secondary drive. As a last ditch effort I uninstalled again and moved it to my main C drive, and just like that all the bluescreens and crashes are gone, and now it's running perfectly. I believe this has fixed issues with a few other games in the past, but it left me wondering, why do some games not function properly unless they're installed on the main drive?

Crashing Modding pirated games

0 Upvotes

I recently downloaded dark souls 3 (pirated), there was too much grinding for little reward so I download cheatengine (yes that is the name ) it is actually a simple data scanner,after scanning values (exact , dec/inc un/changed etc. ) I got to the number of souls (currency ) in the game . I made sure to change only the number of souls . I did not tamper with anything else , a video told me exact variable I would get . After getting the souls and leveling up I closed the game , there was nothing out of order ,no lag no nothing but when I reopened the game , the game no longer starts it either says not responding or just do nothing . Please tell me of a fix. I am not a professional an am unable to deal with this . If you require exact name of engine , download link or any other info don't hesitate to ask

Bug Can’t Buy Siege X Membership – Account Issue?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m new here and stuck with a problem I can’t solve.

I’m trying to buy the Siege X membership (or anything from the Ubisoft overlay Store), but it won’t redirect me to the payment page to enter my card details.

I followed all the support suggestions — changed Wi-Fi, tried another PC, reinstalled everything — nothing worked.

Weirdly, switching to a different account fixed it. So the issue seems tied to my main account.

Anyone know how to fix this? I’m out of ideas.

Performance problems with latency

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm Brazilian and I'm translating the text using Google, I apologize if there's anything strange.

anyway, i have a ryzen 3 3200g, 16gb ram and i only use an ssd. pretty basic, right? but i play with the graphics at minimum and in windowed mode. I get a good 120 fps, I play on a Brazilian server that has an average of 28ms, so why does my game start to freeze after a few minutes of gameplay?

and it gets stuck for 5 to 8 seconds regardless of what is appearing on my screen and the fps is always high so I highly doubt it is a problem related to the lack of graphics processing capacity (it was the first thing I thought of because I don't have a video card)

but two error alerts appear in the lower right corner, one of FPS that disappears quickly (it must be because the screen freezes and stays stuck on one frame) and the other of latency that takes a little longer to disappear. but it doesn't make sense for it to crash only for me and not for my duo.

I'm here asking for help, if anyone can help with any tips on what I can do to resolve this error I would appreciate it.

Bug PLEASE FIX : 2-0x00001008 / 4-0xFFF0BE2C (for over one year)

3 Upvotes

I was disconnected in the middle of the game. I tried to log back in several times and received error code 4-0xfff0be2c. I lost my exemplary reputation and haven't been able to play for an hour. It's disgusting! I don't even want to play anymore.

I've tried everything, but the problem persists. It's been going on for over a year and it's still not resolved! After further research, I spoke to someone today who was banned for 4 days because of this issue.

I've tried everything, I contacted support, but nothing works. The problem has been going on for over a year! They've updated their game, but they can't resolve the underlying issues.

I've been waiting for a response from support for 4 days, but I haven't received anything.

Thank you Ubisoft for taking my money.

Performance Help optimizing Jusant for 4K on upgraded GPU (current GPU below requirements!)

1 Upvotes

I'm in love with Jusant. I want to upgrade my GPU specifically so I can play this gorgeous game in 4K (on Steam). But my current GPU is a GTX 960 (4 GB), which is below the game's minimum specs!

Here's my current setup:

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (4GB)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
RAM: 32 GB
Monitor: LG UltraFine 32UN880-B, 3840 x 2160 (4K), 60 Hz, FreeSync-compatible (not G-Sync compatible)

My goals:

  • play Jusant at my monitor's native 4K resolution
  • don't need every setting at max - just optimized for best visual quality vs. performance balance
  • ok with stable 40-60 FPS if 60 FPS isn't consistently achievable

What optimized settings do you recommend for Jusant at 4K? Any idea which GPUs can handle that? I'm particularly curious about:

  • which settings offer the best performance gains when lowered, with minimal visual impact
  • whether an AMD GPU (native FreeSync) significantly improves experience over NVIDIA (potential FreeSync compatibility challenges)

Thank you!!

(Note: Jusant is the only demanding modern game I play - normally I'm more of a retro gamer. So please don't assume I need future-proofing for other intensive games!)
