Hi Mنx,

For future reference, while I understand it's not your first language, please post in the forums in English. The all of the mods need to be able to read what you post and not all of them can speak German.

Can you please confirm for me what you see before the game crashes? There is a regular crash issue on XB1 at the moment that the Console Team are working on, but I wish to make sure that it is not something else causing this for you. Do you see menus / trees / grass flicker? Or Animals stop spawning in an area?

Clearing the cache of the your console often (while not ideal - players often do it every 50 mins or so) by shutting down, unplugging for 5 mins and rebooting - or in some cases simply a hard reset - can help avoid crashes which can lead to MD5 errors.

Absturz und jetzt noch alles weg

Hi ich kann leider kein englisch ich hoffe es wird mir trotzdem ein bisschen geholfen.

Ich habe gerade mein Spiel gestartet und sah das die meiner Basis zerstِrt wurde mit allen meinen Sachen.

Das find ich echt traurig da steckt man Stunden an Stunden in dieses Spiel und am Ende ist alles weg.😩

Das macht leider kein Spaك.

Das das Spiel jede Stunde abstürzt war schon نrgerlich aber das jetzt ist die Krِnung.

Hi, I can not speak English, I hope it will help me a bit anyway.

I just started my game and saw that my base was destroyed with all my stuff.

I find that really sad because you put hours and hours into this game and in the end everything is gone

Unfortunately, that's no fun.

The game crashes every hour was annoying but this is the coronation.

 
Hi Max,

Thank you for translating your response. I understand it is no easy, but using something like google translate works fine for me. I should be able to understand most of what you're saying. If you'd like to submit both the German and English like you did in the post above, that is ok.

What you experienced is called an MD5 Error. This is a bug that causes an area of the save to be reverted to the Day 1 state. I understand how frustrating and disappointing this error can be for players. For this error, there are multiple triggers that cause it. The team have already eradicated a large number of them, and are working to fix the remaining triggers.

As you are on XB1 there is a work around that players have found that helps them avoid MD5 errors that occur after a crash on the XB1 (another linked issue the team are working on). As this is a player found workaround, caution is advised - https://7daystodie.com/forums/showthread.php?69218-Possible-work-around-and-or-solution-to-md5-crashes(base-wipes-resets)

For the crashes, a lot of players find that once they notice the indicators of a crash, hard resetting the console or clearing the cache by shutting down and unplugging for 5 mins, can help to avoid the crashes. Some of the indicators include - flickering menu screens, increase in severe weather and animals no longer spawning in the world.

Hopefully this translates back into German ok for you, if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to post them here and I will get back to you asap. There is also no need to send a copy of your reply via Private Message to me, I check the forums before I check them.

Schade 🤔

hello klara !!!

Thanks for the info I hope that the team can fix the error soon.

I think the game is very good but I will not play it until it is really without any problems.

thanks for everything .👍

 
Keeps crashing and deleting my saved game

Hi Claire

I'm hasan I'm having trouble with the game crashing every hour or less then that and deleting or resetting parts of the map only where my base is

 
Hi Hasan64,

It sounds like you are having the same issue as Max above with MD5 errors. If you are playing on XB1, then the info I would give you is the same as what I gave Max. If you are playing on PS4, you can keep a regular backup of your game on USB or in the PS Cloud, which does not update as quickly and can help you restore your save if you experience an MD5 error.

Hello Clara!

I have one more question Can the error occur more often and if yes, at the same place or where else in my base?

 
Hi Max,

The MD5 error can occur more than once in an area, originally it was thought that they would not effect the same area twice but that was proven to be wrong by the players who reported it on the forums.

Lately it seems that the crash will center around one of the crafting stations or campfires. Players have stated that they now spread their different stations out more in their base rather than in the one room so if they don't do the workaround I mentioned in my last message on time, at least there will be minimal impact on the players items.

I hope that helps answer your question, if you have any more, please ask.

hi klara!

thank you for the information.

so if there are lots of loot crates there should be nothing?

how can it be the fact that it works so well on the pc and ps4 and not on the xbox?

will there be a new update soon?

 
Hi Max,

I have heard that lots of your own storage crates in an area can be a risk factor, however this is unconfirmed on my end as triggering an MD5 to crash around these areas is difficult. I would recommend spreading stuff out if you can so if it does occur again not everything is lost.

I am not a member of the Dev team so unfortunately I do not know the details of the different consoles. However PCs are more powerful than console systems, and this can account for part of the reason there is a difference between the two. This post by Sylenthunder may help explain a bit better than I can - https://7daystodie.com/forums/showthread.php?62391-When-Will-the-Console-Version-Have-_______

The only information I have on an update is that the team are working on one that will be released later this year. When I know more solid information for example, what it contains and perhaps a date of release, I will post it here - https://7daystodie.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?87-News-amp-Announcements

Hi Clare yea I just read what you put on max page yea so hard reset and unplugging don't work for me thoses are the first things I tried It only works once

 
Hi Hasan,

This is not a complete fix, this is something that would need to be done every hour or so or when you see the triggers as a means to avoid the crash. The build up towards the crash will always occur until the team can increase stability or issue a fix for it.

Animals not respawning is often an indicator of a crash.

But if they have not started spawning after clearing the cache of the console (unplugging for 5 mins) - animal respawning takes a few in-game days, so if you have over-hunted in an area you will need to move further afield to find more animals - this is part of the game design.
