Materal Files Reloaded *known issue*

edited January 2014 in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
Even though the server isn't up yet, I managed to launch the game and sadly experienced the same thing that has been happening on Tribble for the last several weeks.

"Material Files Reloaded" notification appears on every loading screen at the bottom of the screen.


So much for reporting bugs on Tribble, I guess...

    Yep I got it too. I get it from the LoR load screen. I'm hoping the other issue of being stuck on half resolution has not migrated over from Tribble aswell.

    Yup, getting Material Files Reloaded as well. Did not have it 8 hours ago on the prior Holodeck build.

    Another season, another failed launch by Cryptic. How surprising... How long will servers be malfunctioning this time? Maintenance, Extended Maintenance, maintenance upon maintenance, unexpected maintenance etc

    Have tried loading in safe mode, windowed mode, and fullscreen mode, still get the "Materials Files Reloaded" pop-up in the lower left corner and an immediate crash to desktop when the Character Select screen just starts to load.

    Video drivers are up to date.

    This is just a display issue and should not affect your gameplay experience in anyway (other than seeing the notice often). We'll work on removing the notice you are seeing.

    The bigger question is: Why is this notification constantly visible? It wasn't visible at all prior to Season 8 (thou I did see it often in Neverwinter).

    It was on tribble, and I made a bug ticket about it.

    It was just transferred over to holodeck with the update.

    Because it's a bug and shouldn't be displaying at all.

    Yes, it was known, and while it is annoying, it does not affect gameplay, thus focus was put on higher priority bugs. We'll get this resolved as soon as possible.

    Why the decision to release today, when there were multiple known issues in the build (as listed in the patch notes), and multiple unknown issues which have occured since going live on Holodeck? Would it not be more prudent to run the update through additional testing to work out the kinks, before pushing it to the masses?

    Does anyone know how to turn this nonsense off?

    Who cares if their material files are reloaded or not?

    It's a known bug and is being addressed.

    I am getting the same thing, however when I get it on the Legacy of Romulus loading screen, the game freezes and a window pops up saying to shut down the program. It doesn't go any further than the Legacy of Romulus screen anymore. Game = broken?

    So as of the patch today I crash immediately after the Romulan splash screen before character select. There is a patch going on tonight that does not fix this? Any word on when the crashing that the most recent cryptic patch started causing is going to get fixed?

    Absolulty correct, because I can not play the game at all currently. I get the New Romulus Loading Screen, the loading bar at the bottom and in the loading bar the message Material Files Reloaded.

    So yes my gameplay eexperience is not affected, because I can not play at all

    Same issue here, on my laptop at least. Ran ok on the desktop earlier once I updated my drivers.... Lappy is all up to date though so I dunno...

    I am sure Brandon is doing all he can, must be a little frustrating to be the whipping pole for the community.

    On the plus side, what I did get to play of Season 8 was very impressive so lets cut a little slack.

    I'm also getting this message at every load screen. It tends to appear and disappear three or so times.

    I'm not sure if that message "material files reloaded" isn't affecting gameplay...
    My keybinds keep resetting after every single map change or after switching characters..
    and i'm not the only one having that issue.

    i found some german thread about that reset issue:

    keybinds resetting

    Greetings everyone,

    I noticed since yesterday that you have a "Materials Files Reloaded" on the button of the screen every-time you reloaded the page.

    Cheers,

    Ah... I was wondering what the hell this thing was. Now anyone want to hazard a guess why my anti-aliasing was turned off after I patched the game?

    The message "Material files reloaded" is displayed at the bottom of the following screens:

    1. the loading screen shown during map changes
    2. the "Star Trek Online: Legacy of Romulus" screen shown when the game starts

    Tribble ticket ID #42,553
