Yes, i know but why wouldn't this option be in the game. I don't want to mod my game. Altough it was a request for Witcher 4, most of the games has arachnophobia option these days.

There's a mod "Spiders no more" on Nexus.

Hi new here and don't know how to start a new topic here. Help appreciated.
Oh and I would like far less spiders too!
Hi!
You talk about spiders, so I guess it's about The Witcher (but it's the same for Cyberpunk/Gwent), so just have to select the adequate category (some require to have at least 10 posts, some don't and no one can post a thread in the "Hot Topic" section).
Like this ones :
Or if you want, you can post here and ping a moderator (like that > @Lisanne24). They will create a thread for you and move your post in the right place :)

The Witcher3 next-gen Perfermance issue: Temporary vram overflow is destined to permanent vram overflow

My computer: 32g ram, rtx 4060(8G vram) @ pcie 3.0 x 8, b450 chipset, ryzen 5600x
Graphic settings: RT Ultra, 1080p, number of backgroun characters is low,DLSS quality is quality, Frame generation is on

Ray tracing needs much more vram. 4G vram is not sufficient for sure and I find 8G vram is occationally not sufficient too. But I think 8G vram should be fine if optimized well. Why? Because I often find there is sufficient dedicated vram but at the same time shared vram usage is high(see below picture).
abc.png

Most popular tools can't display shared vram usage, but windows task manager can. This picture was captured after the game became shuttering. We can see total 6.8G vram was used(5.6G dedicated vram + 1.3G shared vram). But rtx 4060 has 8G dedicated vram, shared vram was not necessary. When dedicated vram is overflowed, shared vram is used. If my guess was right, even later there is sufficient dedicated vram, the shared vram would not be copyed into dedicated vram then released. So the effect of vram overflow is irreversible once it happened unless restarting the game. Things would became worse and worse over time to the point game unplayable.
My suggestion:
1. Releasing unsed vram timely to avod using more than 8G varm.
2. Introducing a recovery mechanism for temporary vram overflow if 1 failed.
3.Introducing "fresh game reload" if 1 and 2 failed. Unlike normal game reload, fresh game reload first clears all the shared vram then continued as normal reload. At least, we needn't restarting the game saving much time. I hope CDP could add "fresh game reload" in the next patch.

I can assure you 8GB is enough for almost all scences if you don't mind setting "number of backgroun characters" to low. One thing I can't understand is that only when dedicated vram is overflowed should shared vram be used,but in the game whether dedicated vram is overflowed, shared vram could be used.If lots of resources used by a scence unfortunately reside in the shared vram, you will get low fps.

With 2.1 I'm having a big issue saving my game. I am in Act 3 and cannot save my game no matter what I have tried the game will only autosave at random times. This is on PS5 with PL installed and on version 2.1. Anyone else know what to do?

First, try to clear the cache in case :
Then :
- Are you able to use your phone?
- When you try to save, what is happening? It's totally unavailable? You get an error message?
 
Hi, yes I have cleared the cache for the ps5 using the above link before I made the post.

-I can use my phone
-When trying to save the message at the top left of the screen that states "You can't save right now"
-other fixes I have tried: Wait 24 hours in game, fast traveling to various points through the map, AFK-ing in a spot for about 20 minutes, clearing a quest (Specifically "I Don't Wanna Hear it" issues started prior to quest start) Reloading from previous saves, deleting old saves

EDIT: I've been able to pinpoint exactly when this happened. Loaded back to a previous quick save just before one of the new repeatable races and was able to save. I think the race may have bugged something out and stopped me from saving. I believe this is the case because on files post-race the racing icons are not showing up and they will not allow me to repeat the mission when I visit the icon's locations leaving me in this semi limbo state in game where it should be prompting me for a new racing mission (thus not allowing you to save as saving is locked during mission transitions and calls)

Maybe you already tried, but did you visit a joytoy in case?
I know it was a way to fix many issues in the past :)
 
I should just to test it, but I found that the cause of it was finishing one of "The Distance" Quests. More specifically the Westbrook race. As soon as I finish the race, get my reward and travel out the area I save and am hit with a "Save Failed" message and the above bug then plays out (not being able to save). I'll just stop doing racing for now until they patch it (I hope they fix it) and get my discounts from those El Capitan carjacks.
 
I'd love to make a suggestion regarding future Cyberpunk games, but I haven't met the 10 reply quota so... :shrug:

You have the list of moderators at the bottom of this page :
They're all (very) active and should answer you quickly enough, but personally if I want a quick answer I would contact @Draconifors, @Riven-Twain, @SigilFey, @devivre or @Sunsibar

Good day, hope all is well! I would like to catch up on any conversation about the addition of an optional third person view. I was just playing a few minutes ago, hopped on a motorcycle and observed how gorgeous and immersive a third person view would be! Are the devs planning on adding one? Thanks 🙏🏽

I guess tomorrow ;)
(Sunday isn't ideal to get a quick answer)

It was discussed to death since release :)
And sadly for those who hoped for, the answer is no. CDPR didn't plan (and never planned) to add third person view. Now, they intend to move on from Cyberpunk 2077 to their next project(s), the ship which had already sunk the day of the release, have now reached the abyss (all the upcoming patches/updates are in theory only to fix bugs which are many^^)
If you want to keep hoping for a third person view, cross your fingers (and everything you can cross^^), CDPR will plan to add it in the next Cyberpunk game (Orion).
