Hedge is no longer working at Fatshark, I’m afraid!

Regarding support for Linux (and the Steam deck) I’m afraid that our stance so far is that we have no official support and that we can’t afford to focus resources on adding that support. It’s possible that we revisit this stance in the future, but we can’t make any promises.

Gotcha, please do! And if it does bug out, please provide us with the console logs of the player who was acting as host.

Just in case, here’s how to upload your console logs to us:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark\Vermintide 2\console_logs
4. Locate the console log that corresponds with the session in which the issue occurred, by looking at the timestamps in the log names
5. Upload the appropriate console log to your forum post

When did this last happen? The hotfix that solved this issue was launched like a few hours after your original post I think, hence why I’m asking.

@EZPZ
Has this happened to you recently? Hotfix 5.1.5 should’ve fixed this.

Hey there! If you could please make a thread in this subforum, our Community Support members can take a look and try to troubleshoot the issue with you.

Yep!

Also new!

The moonfire bow’s fire effects on enemies is the same regardless of weapon illusion, so the violet-ish, blue-ish fire effect you saw is the one that was mentioned

Skeletons shouldn’t receive any friendly fire, if you’ve got a recording or some kind of evidence could you make a bug report on the forums?

We’re investigating the issue of enemies refusing to spawn, but have unable to reproduce it due to its inconsistency. If it happens again, please make a bug report and include the console log of the session where it happened (If you were hosting the game, the report and console log will be specially valuable!)

Heyo! In case disabling that software does not work, one of our developers has also suggested that you try lowering your mouse’s polling rate, see if that helps.

Interesting!
A bit late, but if it ever happens again, I have a vague memory of this being caused by having two instances of EAC active at the same time. Maybe you have/had a game that kept its anticheat or EAC open at all times by accident (it either failed to close or keeps starting on its own). So ye, if it happens again, might be worth taking a peek in task manager and seeing if something like that is happening.

This is a bug-mistake that’s being looked into-investigated, yes yes!

Heroes!

We’ve just put out a new hotfix for Vermintide 2 on Steam, here are the patchnotes!

Hotfix 5.1.2 (October 24th)

Tweaks

• The Necromancer’s Icon of Death is no longer shown in the ally frame UI thingie, it’s now back to only showing whether the ally has a potion or not.

Fixes

• Fixed the dummies in the Keep being too fat and having big collisions.
• Fixed hot join crash if a Ranger Veteran with the ‘Exhilirating Vapours’ used their ability that session.
• Fixed Bardin being able to stealth infinitely with the ‘Surprise Guest’ talent by re-entering the ability.
• Fixed Ranger Veteran with ‘Exhilirating Vapours’ talent showing the wrong amount of ability stacks.
• Fixed small enemies swallowing bombs when thrown at them.
• Fixed occasional frame perfect host crash when a defend command is issued the frame before an attack command swing finishes.
• Fixed bug where Necromancer lost Icon of Death upon drinking a Potion of Endless Bombs. You can all play Chaos Wastes again!
• Fixed Necromancer not ...

Not a bug! When using the ‘Dread Seneschal’ talent, you can issue both a ‘Defend’ and ‘Attack’ command at the same time. When you do, the Sword and Shield skeletons will stay and defend the spot, while the greathammer skeletons will charge.

Hello! We’re still investigating this issue! In the meantime, we’ve found that this bug was caused by claiming the Daily Reward while in Offline Mode, so if you avoid doing that you should avoid losing your cosmetics.
Rest assured that any cosmetics you’ve already lost won’t really be lost and you’ll recover them once the fix is patched in.

Will look into whether the crit power is intended, but I’ve raised the unclear description as an issue!

This is doable, for sure! Please reach out to us through your support portal and submit a ticket under the ‘Account reset’ query type.

Heroes,

We just pushed out a hotfix patch for Xbox, (releasing on PS4 shortly) including a fix for the progression issue! Here are the patchnotes:

Tweaks

• Fixed the overcharge VFX not showing up on Necromancer for other clients.
• Fixed crash when skeletons attacked a Gutter Runner while all heroes were invisible.
• Fixed bug where “Mistress of the Stave” challenge worked on non-elite enemies.
• Corrected weapon diagram info and weapon tags for the Soulstealer Staff and the Ensorcelled Reaper.
• Fixed crash when a client Necromancer sends a command to her skeletons and they die (or target enemies that die) before the request reaches the host.
• The Soulstealer Staff’s Soul Rip attack now scales with attack speed.
• Fixed crash if Skeletons die at the exact same moment as when you sacrifi...
