Changing values on the FoV slider makes the game crash

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Technical Support

Issue Description:

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open the game
  2. Go to the character selector (or just go to the Mourningstar)
  3. Go to Options → Video
  4. Try and change the FoV slider
  5. Game will immediately crash

If this is not reproducible, try and delete the user_settings.config file and try again - it’s very reproducible on my end, especially with a “blank” user_settings.config file

Forum mods also need to eat and sleep :smile:

I posted a temp fix on the Discord…
[… ] I found the fix - and for everyone else having the game crash, when changing values on the FoV slider

Find your user_settings.config file and you can change your FoV manually using
vertical_fov = 90 or whatever you want.

I put my line right above the volumetric_data_size if that makes sense.

The user_settings.config file will be at %appdata%/Fatshark/Darktide

It’s happening with me as well. Before the last update I hadn’t this bug.

We will be releasing a patch for this soon. Thank you!
