Troubleshooting: Co-op Crash on Join

Game crashes immediately when joining or hosting a REANIMAL Co-op session.

Why does it crash?

  • Corrupted Shader Cache: The new level failed to render.
  • Overlays: Steam, Discord, or GeForce Experience overlays sometimes conflict.
  • Outdated Drivers: Your GPU drivers are too old for the game engine.

Fixes (PC)

  1. Verify Integrity: Steam > Library > REANIMAL > Properties > Installed Files > Verify Integrity.
  2. Clear Shader Cache: Delete shader cache via Disk Cleanup or GPU control panel.
  3. Disable Overlays: Turn off Discord/Steam overlays temporarily.
  4. Update Drivers: Check Nvidia/AMD for the latest release.

Consoles

  • Restart Console: Try a full power cycle (Hold power button for 10s).
  • Network Reset: Disconnect/reconnect internet.
