A new update (0.9.2) is available now!
Latest Hotfix: 0.9.2.1 (2026-05-13)

    Yes, we will change the default FOV soon, and also add a slider to the settings menu.
    But you can already manually fix the FOV, simply edit the config.properties file in your game directory (Steam: Steam/SteamApps/commons/RisingWorld/) and change "graphic_fov" to a higher value (default: 45).

    Is there an errorlog created in your game directory (Steam/SteamApps/commons/Risingworld)? Otherwise it may be related to another issue, usually multiplayer has nothing to do with your graphics card. Only exception would be when you connect to a server where player used a lot of custom images, that consumes more memory (vram) than usual.

    Where do you click "update driver"? In most cases windows doesn't find the newest driver. Usually you have to manually download it from the Intel homepage (or Asus homepage).

    Ok it seems the laptop only has an Intel HD 3000. Your driver version is outdated, please install the latest Intel driver, that should fix the problem.

    Okay Intel HD... Do you have a second graphics card? If you're using a laptop, can you tell me the name of it?
    The game requires at least an Intel HD 3000. Can you please also tell me what's next to driver (also in dxdiag display tab, I need version and date)?

    how do i find my graphics card?


    Press [windowskey]+R (then an input dialog should appear), type "dxdiag" (without quotation marks), then go to the tab "Display" and tell me the name, manufacturer and chipset please

    Okay, so when switching to the NVIDIA card, the game crashes? Using the integrated adapter works, but causes black textures? Or am I wrong?
    Can you tell me what NVIDIA card you have?

    Thanks! I'm not sure but it appears it is related to your graphics card. What graphics card do you have?
    Just for the case: If you're having two graphics card (Intel HD + dedicated card), you have to specify that the game should use the dedicated graphics card

    Oh yes, bug reports are always nice! Especially since you're hosting your own server, if any bugs or issues related to multiplayer occur, it would be very helpful if you provide us logs or (if available, errorlog files). You can alternatively also send them as private message :)

    Yes, it's a known bug, it may happen in singleplayer as well as in multiplayer. It may happen more frequently on multiplayer servers, when multiple players are digging at the same time.
    Only workaround: Press F2 when falling through ground, this enables you to return to the surface safely.


    We're working on a solution :)

    As @Quezax said, we're currently preparing a wiki which contains a full overview of all functions and events ;) The area protection was indeed just a small basic example.
    We will give the wiki a higher priority now. Before Steam release, there were not many people playing multiplayer, and even less people using LUA scripts, so we concentrated on other things. But this has changed now with steam. As soon as the serverlist is running (probably with the next update), we start working on the wiki (to get at least the LUA section online).
