Common Bugs and Error Messages

Players frequently encounter several recurring issues. Below is a comprehensive troubleshooting guide organized by symptom.

Crash on Startup

If Lunacid crashes before reaching the main menu, try these solutions in order:

  1. Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up to date. Both NVIDIA and AMD have released driver updates that improve Unity engine stability.
  2. Disable Antivirus: Temporarily disable real-time scanning. Some antivirus programs flag game executables as false positives, causing instant crashes.
  3. Compatibility Mode: Right-click Lunacid executable > Properties > Compatibility > Run this program as administrator. This resolves permission-related crashes.

Performance Optimization

  • Lower Shadow Quality and Post-Processing effects for significant FPS gains.
  • Close background applications, especially browsers that consume RAM.
  • Set power plan to High Performance in Windows Power Settings.

Note: Always check the official forums and Discord server for the latest patch notes, as developers frequently release hotfixes for known issues.
