Stalcraft has a huge amount of content, and the developers are constantly trying to improve it. But, as in all games (especially global), there are some bugs, crashes, and inaccuracies. Below, we will deal with popular bugs relevant to 2024 and ways to solve them.
Don't forget to redeem Stalcraft promo codes to get bonuses in the game.
But if you’re in the mood for something different, we also have War Thunder codes.
Errors 520 and 502
Judging by the discussions on thematic forums, errors 502 and 520 are not uncommon. Read on for the most effective ways to eliminate them.
Regardless of which of the two numbers is displayed, the problem is related to the network. But it will not be possible to figure out the cause at once. To do this, try all the steps described below:
- Wait. If time permits, you should not touch anything for a while. Often, similar failure messages appear due to malfunctions on the servers. Administrators promptly fix the breakdown so everything will work. Do not forget to view the official channels of the developer. If the failure is caused by technical work or similar, they will inform you about the reasons and time of recovery.
- Reload the site (if the 502/520 error appeared on it) or the Launcher. Data packets are sometimes lost during transmission; restarting solves this.
- Turn off and then turn on the router.
- Check if other Internet resources work and download a few different sites. If they work in normal mode, then the problem is not with you and is already being solved.
- In the launcher settings, try to enable (or disable, if it was enabled) the peer-to-peer function. This allows you to reduce the load on the server by downloading files in alternative ways.
- Clear your browser’s cache and cookies.
- Try to access the official site in incognito mode. This way, the installed browser settings and extensions will not take effect. If everything works in anonymous mode, disable extensions and enable them one by one to see which one caused the conflict.t
What to Do if Stalcraft Lags
Stalcraft is a dynamic game. Battles with players and monsters require focus and attention. All skills and experience will be useless if the process is constantly interrupted by lags and freezes. The user is easy to kill when he froze in place because of hang-ups. The following actions will help to cope with this:
- Check and optimize the Internet connection. Reboot the route and make sure that fewer than dozens of devices are connected to your home network. Connect an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi for a stable connection.
- Compare your PC’s characteristics with the minimum and recommended (Make sure you look at the current system requirements).
- If necessary, upgrade your hardware. Installing a new graphics card or increasing RAM will definitely benefit the experience.
- Lower the graphics settings inside. “Beautiful picture” dramatically affects performance. Reducing the quality helps to reduce freezes.
- Close third-party programs. PC resources are distributed between active processes; it is worth closing unnecessary ones, and the FPS will increase.
- Check the relevance of the driver; new versions also optimize the device.
- Keep an eye on the temperature of the component. Overheating causes not only freeze but also threatens to break the equipment.
What to Do if Stalcraft Does Not Start
Bugs inside the game are not as frustrating as when it does not start at all. The reasons for the breakdown can be hidden deep in the settings or lie on the surface. It makes no sense to consider all individual cases, so try simple actions. Usually, they are enough.
- Find a folder with game files (by searching and viewing the location in the Launcher).
- Look for a folder called “Config”.
- Delete it, and then try to start again through the Launcher.
A similar option is considered if the user launches through Steam. For some users, it is easier than the previous one.
- Open the “library” section; then right-click on “Stalcraft”
- Button “Properties”
- “Local files”
- “Browse”
- Also, erase the configuration files
- Under “Local Files” in Steam, click “Check file integrity”
