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

  • Game crash at 10% on loading screen

    Are you running anything else at the same time? You might want to try running the Rising World in Safe Mode with networking (just to test).


    I have found on my rig that Rising World will fail to start if I'm using Window Media player when it is playing certain video files with certain codecs.


    Conflict of resources. . .


    Just an idea you could try whilst waiting for the expert!

  • Game crash at 10% on loading screen

    Your log files say "WARNING: Selected display mode: 1920 x 1080 x 0 @0Hz" that may be your problem?


    There is a config file in the games root that contains settings where you can change the resolution.


    If you're not comfortable editing config files I would suggest uninstalling the game, deleting any leftover files (particular the config file), reboot, and reinstall.


    Or you could wait to see what Red says.


    P.s. when deleting files it's always best practice to rename the file to filename.extension.old - just in case you need to reverse what you did!


    Hope that helps.

  • I have some concerns about the update

    A simple solution to this (for server owners) is to log the chat messages and include the name and UID. My server does this and if someone is using inappropriate language and is reported by another player a simple log search will reveal the offenders UID.

  • Labels stop being clickable?

    Something odd is happening. Probably relating to my lack of understanding.



    Code
    GuiLabel Label1 = new GuiLabel("TEXT", 10.0f, 25.0f, false);

    Label1.setClickable(true);

    This works fine, but it appears that when someone logs off, everyone's labels stop being clickable. :/


    Does anyone have a complete mini/simple example of how I should be using "clickable labels" ?

  • Even Listeners being called multiple times

    Update: I've had a player have this happen to them and they told me what happened - might be useful in tracking it down @red51. They fell through the world down to hell; where the graphics appeared to be glitching ( falling through hell multiple times). This is where (I believe) the event call "onPlayerDeath" gets called multiple times.

  • Bye`

    Quote from Trillnar

    For some strange reason , I got banned for just looking around a server a year or 2 ago. I never picked a fruit or even swung a pic or axe on that server.


    The server owner must have just been having a bad day.

    They may have seen your activity as suspicious for the reason that you didn't start building? I had someone log and simply just started committing suicide a dozen times. I'm assuming to get the starter inventory items. He wouldn't respond to chats and the username was mildly offensive - he got banned.


    There are a few "dedicated" rising world servers out there. I can totally empathize with you, my first experience with rising world was to build a castle on a server only for it not to be there the next day :/ so I setup my own dedicated server. Multiplayer does enrich your game experience.

  • Even Listeners being called multiple times

    The only lua script on the server is the (unmodified) area protection one. I will post up a section of my log shortly.


    My plugin uses a logger to log the username and UID of every login and logoff method event call. Here's what I found in the log. . . (I've changed the UID and username to protect the user - I'm not saying they've done this deliberately. . .)


    What happened was my plugin works out experience points at this point, and the user suddenly jumped up a few million points =O (I'm working on using semaphores to try to prevent this happening again?).


    But I have seen two instances of this happening (multiple log off calls)
