The Hidden Gaming Lair9/30/2026@xICEMANx117 Hi! I'm looking into this now and need two quick things to pin it down: 1. What exactly freezes: the game itself (Crimson Desert stops for a moment), or the THGL map window (your player marker and the creatures stop moving while the game keeps running)? 2. Does it still happen on the latest app version? The Crimson Desert tracking has changed a lot since you posted this. If it happens again, please send a debug snapshot right away while the game is still running (the bug icon in the app's top bar, "Send Debug Snapshot") and write "freeze" in the "What is wrong?" box. That shows me exactly what the app was doing at that moment. Thanks!
The Hidden Gaming Lair10/3/2026@xICEMANx117 Quick follow-up on the freezing: is it the game itself that stops for a moment, or only the THGL map (your marker and the creatures stop moving while the game keeps running)? And does it still happen on the latest app version? If it happens again, a debug snapshot sent right away while the game is still running would help a lot (bug icon in the app's top bar, "Send Debug Snapshot", write "freeze" in the box). Thanks!
xicemanx11710/3/2026its only the THGL all like the marker that is you ( the player in the game ) will studder and freeze on the map while walking or flying
The Hidden Gaming Lair10/3/2026@xICEMANx117 Thanks, that pinned it down! I found why your marker hung: every few minutes the app searches for nearby creatures in the background, and during that search your own position could get stuck waiting for about a minute. That matches what you saw, where it works fine for a while and then stutters again. This is fixed in Companion App 19.1.20, which is out now. Restart the app and it updates itself. I couldn't walk around in the game myself to test it, so next time you're exploring, let me know if the marker stays smooth or if it still stutters. **Did this solve it for you?** Tap a button below, or just reply here. Tell me what was unclear, slow or still wrong, and what you would like to see: it helps me get better.
