Lords of the Fallen News

What do you do with the Lords of the Fallen rune tablets? These special items are required by Gerlinde, the blacksmith NPC, whom you'll meet on your travels. There are three of these LotF rune tablets in total, and they offer unique rewards.

Our Lords of the Fallen blacksmith rune tablets guide discusses where you can find these items, as well as an important decision that you need to make: should you give the rune tablet to Gerlinde or Sparky? You can find out whether this is a decision to be made with friends in our Lords of the Fallen multiplayer guide, or if you'll be spending some time on it in our answer to how long Lords of the Fallen actually is.

Lords of the Fallen debuts at five times the players of 2014 original

1. Use the “AUTO-SET” option within the game’s SETTINGS menu under the GRAPHIC tab. This will apply settings best suited to your PC configuration and will optimise performance.
   
   
   
   
2. It is essential that you update your graphics drivers to the latest version, we have worked directly with Nvidia & AMD to offer the smoothest performance possible. Please find some useful links below:
   Nvidia AMD
   /!\ Make sure to restart your computer after the driver installation /!\
   
   
3. Regarding the crash on the first loading screen, while we await a permanent fix in collaboration with EPIC, we've discovered another workaround thanks to MitoGouken:
   
   1. Go to "X:\Steam\steamapps\common\The Lords of the Fallen"
      
   2. Right click on "LOTF2.exe" - Click on Properties
      
   3. Go to the Compatibility tab
      
   4. Activate compatibility with Windows 8
      
   5. Disable fullscreen optimizations
      
   6. Run this program as an administrator
      
   
   
   This is a preferable solution to the previous workaround (#4) as it still utilizes precompiled shaders, avoiding mini stutters whenever you visit a new biome.
   
4. Another way to workaround the start game crash is to deactivate PSOs. Please note that this workaround may result in some micro-freezes the first time you enter a new area of the game. To deactivate PSOs pre-calculation, please follow these steps:
   a. Right click on the game in your Library
   b. Click on Properties
   c. In the General tab, enter the following modifier in the Launch Options text box: -nopsos
   
   
   
   
5. Meanwhile we do not activate DLSS Frame Generation by default, if you have a 40 series nvidia card, you can manually activate FG by adding in launch options "-DLSSFG".
   
   
   
6. If you’re still experiencing issues, please send an email to [email protected]. When you email us, please attach[ a dxdiag file and supply the following details:
   
   • How many hours you’ve played
     
   • Steps to recreate the bug(s)
     
   • And any other information that would be useful.
     
   To generate a DxDiag file, please see here
   
   Also, provide us with your GPU Debugging Log. Head to your Steam settings, and please enter the following command: "-gpucrashdebugging". Start your game and after your crash please head over to X:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\LOTF2\Saved\Logs\LOTF2.log
   
   Take both logs and please include them in your email to our team at [email protected].
   
   If the issue is a crash, please send us the text contained within the pop-up window that appears in the crash reporter window. Please click to “SEND” the information (DO NOT CLOSE IT) as this goes directly to our Sentry bugs database.
