Posted November 23, 2022 I am having an issue when I launch the game in where I am just getting a black screen and the windows loading cursor wont go away. I reinstalled the game through steam and also checked the file integrity. After doing this a few times I noticed that after I check integrity and get it clear, the game will then update when I load the Wurm launcher. Then if I go back to check the file integrity it will say there are 2 incorrect files and it will correct. This repeats every time I load the launcher and then check the integrity. Not sure where to go from here. I recently updated my video drivers I am not sure if that might be an issue. I have an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) I had the exact same issue. When I launch WO through Steam, game goes to a black screen, I see a neverending loading cursor and eventually freezes. Diddi's advice worked for me. Some heroes don't wear a cape. He's da man! Free beers for Diddi. I switched to medium graphics and now it loads. I have an AMD Ryzen™ 3 2200G. Are there known issues in this game with AMD hardware? You also have AMD and I found many other threads of users who have AMD and had problems lanching this game. Maybe some particular individual settings in Custom cause the incompatibility with our AMD hardware? I wonder which setting. Could it be the number of threads? Custom lets us choose 4 or 8. My Ryzen has 4 cores, so choosing 8 there shouldn't work. I can't see if the high and maximum settings use 8 threads.

Posted May 6, 2023 I have same issue, but not steam version. I stopped playing/paying for wurm. If they cant fix this for their players, then they dont need players money as well. Good day all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2023 Apparently, all i had to do is reduce all graphics. Even thought it used to work just fine. It could be, that this happened, because my laptop is super old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 8, 2023 When i had an issue with the game loading after the launcher i found that changing from the pre determined High Graphics settings to custom graphics settings that it stopped the issue. I would suggest going through a process of elimination of the settings to see which one might have caused your issue @Dragonikaand let us know here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
