I thought I was having this issue but just let the program run on the black screen for a while. After 5 minutes the game sprang to life and all seemed good… until I clicked the ‘load saves’ button and the game froze for another 5 minutes…

When I open task manager during the freeze, the Stonehearth app keeps jumping between using 4+ GB and less than 1 GB (I only have 8 GB on this system)

The only idea I have is that the new version might be checking my saves? (I have hundreds of save files…)

After reducing my old save files to 5, it still lags when opening the game and recovers after about 10 seconds now.

After removing all the saves and only have new (post 64) saves in the file seems to alleviate the lag completely.

Coming from someone who has no idea what he is doing, whenever i click run i notice that it creates a stonehearth log after it crashes so i clicked on that and it says alot of bad things about not finding paths for lua scripts

2015-Feb-05 02:56:29.945358 | client | 1 | lua.code | could not find path for lua script “lualibs/unclasslib.lua”.  
2015-Feb-05 02:56:29.945358 | client | 1 | lua.code | could not find path for lua script “modules/common.lua”.  
2015-Feb-05 02:56:29.945358 | client | 1 | lua.code | could not find path for lua script “modules/timer.lua”.

is this related? or just a seperate bad thing xD

tried the erasing and redownloading ,didnt work for me and my black screen of death is only a few seconds before it just closes itself so i cant watch what happens afterwards

Looks like you’re right–I _suspect_ I know what the issue is, and we can verify pretty easily. If you know how to, edit your user\_settings.json file, it should look like the following:

```
{
   "user_id" : "98b39b32-3386-11e4-a06e-902b3450324f",
   "renderer" : {
      "disable_pinned_memory" : true,
      "enable_ssao" : false,
      "enable_shadows" : false,

```

Add that line, **“disable\_pinned\_memory” : true,** to the “renderer” block, as shown above, and then run stonehearth.
