KNOWN ISSUES

Top Issues

• FSR has not been upgraded yet for UE 5.6. FSR support for AMD graphics cards is planned for a future release
• You will crash if you change DLSS settings during gameplay
• Using unstuck will kill a character. This is a temporary solution to prevent unstuck abuse
• Some recipes have requirements for where you can craft them that aren't working correctly
• There are issues with the Hammer Rest Anvils elevator on the Shol (US) realm. While we work on this fix, you may need to run through Bonfire in the meantime

Troubleshooting

• Please ensure you meet the minimum computer specifications for Alpha Two here. If you do not, you may receive Unreal errors, infinite loading screen, or timeout errors upon hitting play due to this. (Note: If you have multiple HDDs, to make sure you install on your SSD.)
• If you have a lot of crash logs, this may be taking up a lot of space on your computer. To free up space, look at this folder, and delete older large logs (copy and paste the phrase below to search)
• %Localappdata%\AOC\Saved\Crashes
• If your game is crashing on a black screen immediately after pressing Launch Game, you likely need to update/reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. Visit Microsoft's website and install the X64 version for Windows 10/11
• Some antivirus software will make it so auto-update for the Intrepid Launcher will not work. You may need to disable your antivirus software when updating via the launcher.
• Players with certain Intel processors may be presented with a message concerning known stability issues with their CPU. This message will direct to an Epic known issue
• If you're still having issues with Easy Anti Cheat (EAC) when launching, you can try navigating to C:\Program Files\Intrepid Studios\AshesOfCreation\PROD\EasyAntiCheat (or wherever you have the game installed), double-click on Install.bat, and see if that lets you install EAC manually
