A new update is now available, introducing "Points of interest" and many more changes!
Latest hotfix: 0.9 (2025-11-05)

    Das Spiel erkennt nur deine Intel HD 3000, welche darüberhinaus noch einen alten Treiber hat (die ersten Intel Treiber waren verbuggt im Bezug auf OpenGL).


    Du musst deine Geforce 580M also manuell dem Spiel zuweisen (geht im NVIDIA Control Panel).

    Kicken: kick spielername optional:grund


    Bannen: ban spielername dauer optional:grund


    Ich glaube Bannen funktioniert aber noch nicht...

    The devs are going to have to address this. This is the same issue we have been having for over a week now and none of the updates have fixed it apparently. Not much I can do. Is this problem happening on other servers?


    There is at least a problem with animals, don't know if that causes the isses. You could try to delete all spawned animals in the database (but then no more animals will respawn in that areas where animals already spawned, perhaps make a backup of that table).
    It is also possible that the issues are somehow related to LUA, not sure. We will bring our own server online soon, eventually this helps us to sort out more of the multiplayer issues (which dont seem to happen always).
    Perhaps it also helps to disable HIVE verification temporarily in your settings.

    Our team consists of three people: KingGenius, lucien.schuenke and me ;) "JIW-Games" was founded by KingGenius and me. We are all from Germany.
    I am mainly working on the game itself, KingGenius partly works on the game and is mainly responsible for the website, user authentication and non-Steam payments, and lucien.schuenke manages our servers, is responsible for the Steam integration and does some community related tasks.

    Sadly I deleted the game folder and ran verify game integrity from steam just in case it didn't scan certain files which could have been corrupt. Anyway this didn't work, but I have linked the connection issue to single player, if you try to join a server and get the error unable to authenticate and then decide to start a single player game the world doesn't load/create. If you exit the game and start it over then go to single player the world will load/create as normal, so this problem not been able to play single player is only if you try to join a server and get the error and then try to create/load a world in single player.


    It took around 45 minutes before I was able to join a server again. The losing connection seems most think its to do with chopping down trees and crafting things, I don't, i think its to do with survival mode its self because you can just be standing there idle and still loose connection, in a period of 4 hours I must have lost my connection at least 12 times.


    It would be interesting to know if an errorlog is created when you was first on a multiplayer server and then tried to play singleplayer. If not, please enable debug console and provide the log again if possible.


    Is there a specific server you are playing on in multiplayer?

    question: the scripts must packed as a zip file ? and then in the scripts folder right ?


    No, simply create a new folder in the scripts directory and give it the desired name (e.g. "h0tstuffScript"). Then put all related files into that folder ;)

    Wie oft startet ihr euren Server neu? Mind. 1x am Tag sollte ein Restart erfolgen, wenn ihr viel spielt, kann es ggf. nicht schaden, auch etwas häufiger neuzustarten ;)


    Wenn ihr das bereits macht und es trotzdem nicht hilft, wäre es vielleicht sinnvoll wenn ihr mir eure Welt einmal zukommen lassen könnt (sofern das ok ist)?

    The red symbol on the right top indeed indicates that you have no connection to the HIVE. As long as you have no connection, you can't connect to multiplayer servers which require a HIVE verification.
    Singleplayer should still work, it is independent of your internet connection.


    What antivirus program do you use? There was a user where Kaspersky blocked the required port for the game, but not always, so sometimes he was able to play singleplayer, sometimes not.


    Is there an errorlog or hs_err_pid file in your game directory?

    Auf welchem Server spielst du? Grundsätzlich sollen Server mind. 1x am Tag neustarten, bei mehreren Usern kann es nicht schaden sie vielleicht noch etwas häufiger neuzustarten.

    About the german forum: You can disable it for yourself if you want ;) So you don't get any notifications etc. about the german part of the forum.


    About the bad reviews on Steam: It appears that most of these people don't want help at all. We added everybody who said "game won't start" to our Steam contacts to solve the issue (it's a pity at all that people write a negative review instead of contacting support or visiting the forums), but most did neither accept our request, nor react to our attempts to contact them ||

    Perhaps you can send us the world (unless you use lot of custom images, the file size is ultra small) if you want? It's good when the issue is reproducible.

    The baking feature will not be too complex. So I guess we will not add different types of flour, player should be able to cook without having to be a trained chef ;)
    But it will require some kind of effort to make special meals. Cooking meat will take some time (by far not as long as in reallife, since this is still a game), and it requires your attention (if you don't want to receive a steak "black edition" finally^^).


    Making soups and stews is also more complicated than creating simple meals, but as a result, they will restore more hunger/health (and have positive effects on your stamina, once this is implemented).


    Edit: No answer means there is no answer at this point?


    Sorry for taking so long with answering, we're still very busy, on the one hand giving support to a lot of players (especially in Steam), on the other hand working on the newest update. Here are still some topics I haven't read yet, but I will until I have more time ;)
