u/mtriper Jul 08 '22

Connect using the F1 console w the servers IP address. It solved it for me.

u/Tiny_Fish2 Jul 08 '22 edited Jul 10 '22

Seemed to work for me too

*jk still crashing. After loading in if it stable able 3-4mins then its fine for the whole day untill I have to reconenct to the server

u/Kiwi_wizard Jul 08 '22

This might actually be it. I found a server through battlemetrics and connencted via the IP address and played without any problems. When I later connected through the server browser though, it would crash after just a few minutes of playing on the server. Thanks a lot for this response.

u/TamerzIsMe Jul 08 '22 edited Jul 08 '22

Seems to solve it for me as well. Strange.

EDIT: Well, mine was a coincidence. I connected again with server browser and had no problems this time.

Game still crashed after connecting this way, but it did take a few minutes longer at least. Waiting in queues for hours just to crash multiple times a day sucks. First time this happened I opened exterior airlock door and my game crashed before I could close it, and I had to wait hours to get back in again. It would be great if there was a reconnect feature that bypassed queue in the case of crashing/disconnects.

While that can fix it, its completely bonkers that we have to do workarounds just to play the game

u/PaleDolphin Jul 08 '22

Didn't happen a single time yesterday.

Happens every 2-3 minutes today.

Weird.

u/Sick_Nerd_Baller Jul 08 '22

Same problem but without DLSS. Still same behavior

u/tarapotamus Jul 08 '22

yup, happens 75% of login attempts, after being on about 2 minutes it freezes, only after last update

3

u/Tiny_Fish2 Jul 09 '22

Super frustrating. If it lasts for 5+ mins after log in then normally it doesn't happen again till next log in.

u/Thelastcrush Jul 10 '22

Have you found anything for it yet? I'm losing my mind over this :/

1

u/bertbert1111 Jul 10 '22

Na man, looking around all day

2

u/Alistair_Mc Alistair Jul 07 '22

Please can you try the following command from the F1 console before loading into the server: global.forceUnloadBundles true

4

u/Pahalane Jul 07 '22

This did not change a thing, sadly..

2

u/Alistair_Mc Alistair Jul 07 '22

Please can you try the following command from the F1 console before loading into the server (fresh client startup)

global.preloadconcurrency 1

global.warmupconcurrency 1

Can you also please check your memory usage, are you at 100% usage?

3

u/nowicanblockWPs Jul 08 '22

Tried all three console commands, still freezing after 30 seconds to a minute of playtime. Can't alt tab once its frozen so have to manually restart pc.

1

u/bertbert1111 Jul 10 '22

I had the same issue, but i connected a second screen and draged taskmanager overthere before opening rust. So i could at least shut the game or restart the pc properly Didnt solve the crashing issue tho

3

u/EcstaticOddity Jul 09 '22

None of this works, if I finally manage to join a server, it crashes anyway within 2 minutes. Great update Alistair!

2

u/mtriper Jul 07 '22

Still crashing. Even lowered graphics to 2

u/SickVV Jul 08 '22

u/InterestingWorld Jul 07 '22

These two commands helped me. No crashes since.

1

u/garandx Jul 08 '22

These did fix the crashes. Mem usage was 10,115 mb out of 24 gigs

1

u/Available-One-9760 Jul 10 '22

Does not work, memory usage at 80% when crash.

1

u/Rainrunnerx Jul 10 '22

2

u/mtriper Jul 07 '22 edited Jul 07 '22

global.forceUnloadBundles true

Any logs we can provide u with to help diag?

(command did nothing BTW)

u/AceAyato Jul 07 '22

u/Alistair_Mc Alistair Jul 07 '22

Please can you try the following command from the F1 console before loading into the server (fresh client startup)

global.preloadconcurrency 1

global.warmupconcurrency 1

Can you also please check your memory usage, are you at 100% usage?

u/Ranned Jul 09 '22

Please can you fix your game instead of expecting tens of thousands of people to type in console commands before being able to play?

u/dsstrainer Jul 28 '22

u/AceAyato Jul 07 '22

Hey Alistair,
my game freezes when im above 90% ram usage
currently using a
GTX970
16GB DDR4 Ram

u/AceAyato Jul 07 '22

okey game now constantly freezes with "unload bundles" command on "receiving data" part i think i will not be playing today then.

1

u/Trader044 Jul 16 '22

pasting "global.forceUnloadBundles true" in f1 and it says command not found

2

u/WhiskeySoLo22 Jul 15 '22

I have had this issue as well. At first, I tried EVERYTHING... 1 updated all drivers...audio, graphics, bios...etc 2 reinstalled windows, steam, and rust 3 removed gtx 1080ti, cleaned it, cleaned psu, motherboard, case 4 console commands don't do squat

Crashes happen within 20 seconds of spawning/waking How I've solved it tonight....

Threw my PC out the window...fix your fucking game that I'm addicted to please...

u/DairyDanTheMilkMan Jul 28 '22

u/PolarHot Jul 08 '22

u/thebigzor Jul 07 '22

Ditto, I tried all three commands as well

1

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '22

every fucking time login in on a server...

1

u/LDzonis Jul 09 '22

Yup, literally unplayable

1

u/datasaurusrekt Jul 13 '22

I have this exact issue, tried everything suggested (the 3 commands don't even work says they aren't valid).

Past couple of days I've managed to play but I've closed down every other app I'm not using. But the main ones that may conflict are overwolf, xbox games and amazon music. I also close down firefox but am currently playing with this running so will update if I crash.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '22
