Invisible in-game items plus other bugs

Post by JESS 246 »

Hi Egosoft and All.

I know it's new and expect a few bugs but not these kind i'm getting.

I'm noticing many invisible items in the game play, NPC's bodies (some just the clothes show), some menu lines listings not showing, Stations flooring/most super structure and consoles no show, my ships hull from inside when docked no show. (I've tried all graphic setting lower are worse)

Have seen a large Freighter stuck half way through station dock floor and like past X games they fly through station like they are not there but some do get stuck like i said.

Other Bugs are on asking to dock at the Teladi trade station i'm redirected to dock outside the station to the right and then asked to build the dock, when targeting an enemy ship the info pop-up stay in view blocking my firing till enemy is dead.

When in the engineering room i assume we should be able to do something but there is no engineer or interaction in there at all if so seems a waste of game coding, if we are to do things in there WHAT (cant find info on it).

For the thick idiots that say it's must be a mod fingers up you no mods maid yet.

I can confirm missing NPCs as well. Only thing it was present was it's shop icon (I couldn't interact with that NPC).
It's not world hunger because we can't feed poor,it's because there will never be enough to feed the rich .....

some people have that same issue, but it's due to their GPU/GPU memory being under minimum. posting PC specs might help narrow down the problem

As someone previously mentioned, this is normally caused by not having enough video RAM. Systems with only 2GB of memory are quite likely to encounter this as the minimum the game needs is 3GB. Those with more video memory shouldn't, but if they do then turning down some of the graphics settings (especially the antialiasing) may help.

This happened to me too, but it looked like it happens when there's a build order queue for ships that's stalled. As you know, the builded ships appear from nothingness and slowly get "textured" as they are being built, but if they stay at 0% because the shipyard/wharf doesn't have the resources to begin production, bam, invisible ships with floating pilots. Reported it in the beta forums: viewtopic.php?f=192&t=407248

As for other kinds of models not loading, which is very likely to be caused by VRAM, it happened a couple times (pretty much traders / npcs not loading the model but only the icon over where there would have been their head) to me too even though I have a 6gb 1060, which never goes over 2,5/3gb of consumption. But it was very rare, looked like your classic random engine derp rather than anything really serious or consistent.

I'll repeat: check the wharf(s) hold. Do they have all the needed resources to build ships? Are there other ships stalled in queue a 0% *BEFORE* your ones?
