1. The Keymaster. He can be found in the castle dungeon(east of spawn, near the ravine). He spawns as one of the possible NPCs that spawn when entering the dungeon. He can also be found in the 'regular' dungeon South of spawn.
2. They might drop as rewards for defeating some enemies in dungeons(not sure if this applies to all dungeons or if it is even true).
3. It has a chance of dropping when opening chests(not for the golden chests) or pushing over barrels.
game play is pretty solid from what i could play but holy shit the game crashes almost once a minute not including any other bugs which i could honestly ignore if it wasn't for the near constant crashing, if the bugs were fixed this would be an absolutely fantastic game though
Does anyone else's game take an extremely long time to open? Like, 30-45 minutes long after double clicking the exe. Is Windows 11 just screwy or is it the game?
That's really strange then, I always have about 7-9GB of free memory when starting it. Seriously if anyone has any ideas about how to fix this issue, please let me now.
The only other game-related causes thing I can think is bad drive, low space remaning on drive, or anti-virus software... At runtimem the engine mounts the big .pak file, reads compressed files from them as needed (doesn't load the whole file, just files as needed from inside it), uncompresses them, and puts them in memory.
If there's something completely unrelated to the game causing it, no idea.
No, there is a free version, it is one month behind the patreon version. The patreon version allows you to support the creator but also get the latest updates.
So the bug here is that these golden chests I cannot interact with. It seems that there's a force field around it (I'm assuming it's set as a solid object so you can't pass through, but the boundaries make it so you can't get closer than where I am positioned.
It seems every dungeon has this issue with the golden chests, so I can't use dungeon keys on them.
Last comment people mentioned issues may be tied to having multiple save files, but this one I wiped everything for 4.5a, and have no other save files.
The sewer has strange lighting. It has a 'window blinds' effect, straight lines drawn across surfaces the character.
The shadow depth bias for point lights is set too low. Set it from 0.02 to something like 0.05. I think 0.05 is often a default for new levels, but I don't really know that for sure.
Set it in the level properties in the project.
Or, in the in-game console, do [ r.Shadow.PointLightDepthBias = 0.05 ]
where do I find the lich? Went to the dungeon neer the sword in the stone and cave, there were some liches but it seems that they are not the correct lich.
Moreover, where do I find the one who stole the merchant arm?
The Lich is in the new lich dungeon and they're located on the first floor near the exit.
The one who stole the mechanical arm have a unique look compared to the enemies in the overworld but if you head to the bridge you should see one of them on that path.
I am the only one who has problems with the saving system, I press the "E" button multiple times causing the "game saved" message to appear several times but when I check the SavedGames folder, it says that its last modification is from another time prev, that's how it goes it's 11:15 a.m. on February 4 of this year and I save but in the folder it says last modification February 4, 2023 3:08 a.m. How did I know I'm going to save my progress?
Forget it, I already solved it. The problem was the Avast antivirus that had blocked it from modifying the file associated with my game
Tried it, unfortunately Skybreaker is still invisible and unable to be interacted with after dying, and is still stuck as part of the team. Anything else I can try? is there a console command to release all following followers maybe?
I haven't played much of v4.5 yet, but after taking advice from another comment it's basically stopped my crashing all together from v4.4. If you have multiple saves, remove them from the folder or delete them. Once using a single save (save0.sav) you should not crash as much. In my case it was an assertion failed in line 130.
From the looks of things you haven't sacrificed any stats. As you sacrifice size you unlock the skill tiers, with the amount needed for the tier shown next to the yellow line. Keep in mind that while you are sacrificing your size, thus making yourself weaker, it also takes equivalent exp and levels you down so you can get it back without too much trouble, especially at lower levels. You look to be decently far in but my personal strategy is to get a follower or two, sacrifice all size, find a dungeon you feel like running through for a while, and grow and sacrifice after every fight. Anyways, to reiterate that answer to your question, you should just need to sacrifice. One last tip as well, if you ever want to grind sp just do what I said above with size specifically. You get sp real quick.
Anyone know how to fix this error or bug? Im stuck on my ego growth animation and I found that the slider was stuck at 0. I put it to my preferred setting and every time I apply it it reverts back to 0.
some texture seems missing now and they look just black in the 4.5a for example the shirts the girls wearing, some carts, and bandanas so far those are the issues
They're black for me too with my old save. Upon starting a new one native to v4.5 they were normal. I did notice there is a new clothing color picker in the character options. It is set to all black, perhaps that's part of the problem with an old save versus a new save.
The lime slime is now a follower and you can recruit them from the lich dungeon. Befriend them by giving them a growth potion in the dungeon and they'll meet you outside.
I only found a green slime asking me for potion. Others will attack me.
Besides, there was a white lizard outside the crystal dungeon after I beaten rank 20. It is a new follower, cannot grow by leveling, and I still don't know how to grow it...
No, very difficult. Perhaps you could look at what happens when you grow normally, and input the same command... but it's far easier to take a value, like Level, a certain Stat, or the number of a certain essence in your inventory, and make that value a unique number. Then, go to a save editor (saveeditonline), search for that variable's exact value, and change it to what you want it to be. It works for followers in 4.5 and below, when you can freely check their stats, but it's much more difficult in 4.6.
EXP is also a value that can be changed to make them grow, though.
When i download the Patreon file, it fails and says forbidden. How to fix? I already have gotten the patreon sub so i dont understand why its not working.
You don't. It seems somewhat bugged out and you either need to be a higher level or you need muscle to be 100+ (not an exact science). Spoiler: it's a blunt weapon scaling with muscle as "B".

How do you get a dungeon key? I can't seem to find any, am I just not going far enough into the dungeons yet?
these are some ways to get keys that I know of:
1. The Keymaster. He can be found in the castle dungeon(east of spawn, near the ravine). He spawns as one of the possible NPCs that spawn when entering the dungeon. He can also be found in the 'regular' dungeon South of spawn.
2. They might drop as rewards for defeating some enemies in dungeons(not sure if this applies to all dungeons or if it is even true).
3. It has a chance of dropping when opening chests(not for the golden chests) or pushing over barrels.
Those are the methods I know of.

Never. 5 seconds to title. If you have a slow drive it may take longer but absolutely shouldn't be that long. That's silly.
It opens to about 1-2GB of memory use. If you have less than about 3GB free memory when opening, it could take a really long time.

I'd recommend closing all unnecessary applications and taking a look at task manager to see if anything maxes out.
If so, you might just have too low specs.
But this probably isn't the case. Good luck!
Is there going to be a wiki?
If so can you add a link here?
I have a question do we need a patreon account to play this game
No, there is a free version, it is one month behind the patreon version. The patreon version allows you to support the creator but also get the latest updates.
Are the dungeons endless or they just have lots and lots of levels?
Endless and the enemies continue to get stronger.
It seems that the best dungeon is the one behind the sword in the stone, ot am i missing stuff out?
So the bug here is that these golden chests I cannot interact with. It seems that there's a force field around it (I'm assuming it's set as a solid object so you can't pass through, but the boundaries make it so you can't get closer than where I am positioned.

you need a dungeon key for those kinds of chests

Hi,
where do I find the lich? Went to the dungeon neer the sword in the stone and cave, there were some liches but it seems that they are not the correct lich.

The Lich is in the new lich dungeon and they're located on the first floor near the exit.

has the crashing been stoped
nope
also love the sneaky twrp reference
My Skybreaker npc is bugged, its stuck continuously falling so i cant have it stop following, is there another way to get npcs to stop following?
Dying in a battle at least works with the raving fan.
Tried it, unfortunately Skybreaker is still invisible and unable to be interacted with after dying, and is still stuck as part of the team. Anything else I can try? is there a console command to release all following followers maybe?
What does "Lulu" do? I can't talk to her.
Lulu removes the cursed essence you have consumed.
Cursed essence? What's that
how to transfer saves from 4.4 to 4.5
Go into the files and drag your saves from 4.4 to 4.5
crashes very often, but cool game so far
I haven't played much of v4.5 yet, but after taking advice from another comment it's basically stopped my crashing all together from v4.4. If you have multiple saves, remove them from the folder or delete them. Once using a single save (save0.sav) you should not crash as much. In my case it was an assertion failed in line 130.
Hey yo, where's the giant rat in 4.5? none of the sewer boss areas are appearing and I can't get the key for the blacksmith
It's a bug. There is not any sewer boss in 4.5.
You can press '~' key and input 'GHOST' to walk through the door and then input 'WALK' to get normal to talk with the blacksmith.
Nice, didn't know there was a functional console.
why can't I buy this skill?
From the looks of things you haven't sacrificed any stats. As you sacrifice size you unlock the skill tiers, with the amount needed for the tier shown next to the yellow line.

cant find this mad chef or the rat boss unless he was removed with the growing slime lich
dungeon behind the steak food cart, that's always where the bounty bosses [mad chef and the like, NOT the lich] will be
Where do I find the Mad Chef
some texture seems missing now and they look just black in the 4.5a for example the shirts the girls wearing, some carts, and bandanas so far those are the issues
They're black for me too with my old save. Upon starting a new one native to v4.5 they were normal. I did notice there is a new clothing color picker in the character options. It is set to all black, perhaps that's part of the problem with an old save versus a new save.
mmh..got it and where are the options specifically? in the color character setting right?
is lulu one of the new followers
Lulu seems to be the one who can remove the cursed essence from you.
......the what?
Who are the new followers and where do I find them?
The lime slime is now a follower and you can recruit them from the lich dungeon. Befriend them by giving them a growth potion in the dungeon and they'll meet you outside.
Why you said "them"?
I only found a green slime asking me for potion. Others will attack me.
Besides, there was a white lizard outside the crystal dungeon after I beaten rank 20. It is a new follower, cannot grow by leveling, and I still don't know how to grow it...
nonbinary people exist, as do singular uses of "them".
Thanks. This gramma is difficult for me..
Why is it impossible to right-click transfer more than 999 items at once?
why do you have more than 999 of one item in your inventory at once?
Where to find an NPC that will reset essence?
The character is Lulu. She is next to the sewer entrance.
What do the GrowSpeed sliders do?
When you grow in any category, you can adjust the speed at which the growth-animation plays
version 4.4 often crashes for me with `Assertion failed: GetFName() == NAME_None`
when the game update is already month and 10 days
In the next month
he better make it 2 versions a head
is it possible to increase stats with console?
No, very difficult. Perhaps you could look at what happens when you grow normally, and input the same command... but it's far easier to take a value, like Level, a certain Stat, or the number of a certain essence in your inventory, and make that value a unique number. Then, go to a save editor (saveeditonline), search for that variable's exact value, and change it to what you want it to be. It works for followers in 4.5 and below, when you can freely check their stats, but it's much more difficult in 4.6.
EXP is also a value that can be changed to make them grow, though.
What's the best way to farm Essence?
go into a dungeon and play for a while
keeps saying I need something called a D3D11
Running on Windows 7 btw
It means you need to upgrade gpu as your current one does not support direct 3d 11.
Also updating to windows 10 would be a good idea too.
Or 11
When i download the Patreon file, it fails and says forbidden. How to fix? I already have gotten the patreon sub so i dont understand why its not working.
how to not be a slime anymore
Once you kill the Lich for the apothecarist you can turn it in and she will now sell a potion of deliching. Drink that.
IS there cheatcodes?
Well, actually, how do I use the command console
You can open it by using the tilde/backtick "~"/" ` "key.
when is the new update coming out ?
Usually towards the end of the month.
Hello, I just have a question.
Where is the Mad Apothecarist?
Random NPC in dungeons. I think I've found all of those basic npcs in the one thats behind the gate (or in front of the town).
does anyone know how to pull the sword out of the rock
You don't. It seems somewhat bugged out and you either need to be a higher level or you need muscle to be 100+ (not an exact science). Spoiler: it's a blunt weapon scaling with muscle as "B".
what the level
does anyone know how get the sword out of the rock
