Re: Friday Facts #381 - Space Platforms

I haven't played Space Exploration but I get a feeling that Space Age is similar to the mod. Is this true? If i wanted to play Space Exploration I would, but I do not because the mod has never interested me in the slightest. Please tell me Space Age is not similar to Space exploration. I will be ext...

Re: [1.1.59] Crash: Unexpected Error after clicking the monitor where Factorio was open.

Ok, my issue with the crashing was solved with an OS re-install. I am still experiencing the hangs during initial map gen, but I think this is related to something in my appdata folder. If I let Factorio generate a new folder and contents in appdata, I don't have the issue. If I use the old copy, i...

This error started occurring only after 1.1.59 was released
Just to clarify ... this happened more than once, but doesn't happen everytime when you do the steps you described?
Correct. More than once but not everytime.

Re: [1.1.59] Crash: Unexpected Error after clicking the monitor where Factorio was open.

Discord overlay is turned off for all games. Graphic drivers are up to date. I have been using rivatuner for years without any issues. This error started occurring only after 1.1.59 was released, never once before 1.1.59. Wube changed something that started making the game crash this way. If that's...

[1.1.59] Crash: Unexpected Error after clicking the monitor where Factorio was open.

The window that popped up at the time of the crash was non-descriptive. It did not explain in any detail what had happened. The window had simple instructions to report the crash. 1)What did you do? I had Chrome open on monitor 1 and then clicked monitor 3 where Factorio was open. 2) What happened? ...

Re: Help me diagnose Factorio low FPS/UPS performance on external 4k monitor

Running two monitors on a single video card will also decrease performance.

Did you unplug the second monitor as well or are you still running two monitors from the video card?

Re: Help me diagnose Factorio low FPS/UPS performance on external 4k monitor

Excuse me for chiming in here. Just for the sake of attempting to resolve this issue let us experiment with disabling the integrated graphics and then retry loading the game and see how the performance changes. By disabling the integrated graphics this will force the system to use the Nvidia 1650 un...

Re: Losing blueprints when switching builds

Check your %appdata%\Roaming\Factorio folder for a file named blueprint-storage-backup.dat change it to blueprint-storage.dat and you should be good to go.

Re: working hires sprites on 2GB VRAM

8. Render threads: Setting it to max value strangely helps a lot. The game's programmers seem to be very competent, given the difficulties of multicore rendering. The text for this option states multi-thread rendering, not multi-core rendering. Multi-threaded and multi core are not the same thing. ...
