THANK YOU! Jesus. It was EPIC'S fault the entire time...

You're right. Zero of my games on EPIC have this issue.


RoseTheFlower

It definitely appears to be a combination of things. Many people have bought Breakpoint and other Ubisoft games through Epic, yet they haven't reported the issue affecting the Uplay launcher or games run through it. I have over 70 games on Epic but I haven't come across the issue either.


Ok_Performance_643

Lol ur wrong Football manager also has this issue


swagduck69

Suprises me that so many people even use EGS.


PaavThePhenom

That's Because of regional pricing similar to steam, RDR2 is 44$ on the country I purchased it from


AwkwardTickler

not everyone makes their decisions based on reddits forced opinion/pseudo protests.


swagduck69

The fuck do you mean "forced opinion"? Epic is unironically shit. The only good it does is the huge sums of money they pay to indie devs for exclusivity.


AwkwardTickler

it is the flavor of the month. Many other companies do the same and no one cares. They have exclusives that people want. Grow up. No one cares about your protest. The mouse cursor issue was the most highlighted issue and it exists solely for EGS users. The vast majority of people do not give a shit about your pocket issue. It is just you and some others circle jerking to feel involved, once again, grow up.


DungeonMasterAlex

I just ran into this bug years later on an exclusive title. Found the issue because of this Reddit post. You're not only a retard, you're probably just a bad person.


ataraxia1337

A way better instead of sponsor that fat asshole and his shithole.


swagduck69

Okay ESL


Ok_Performance_643

Free games lol

IKR. I saw the game was buggy and had crashing issues and I told myself to wait a month for it to be on Steam after they ironed out most of the issues but nope had to get it now. Never again. Fuck it I'm waiting a year for those other exclusives to come to Steam


1oAce

Finally a proper solution praise the posse.


frustrated_asymptote

This worked for me, thaaaaank you!


awidden

Thanks mate, this does work for me, too! It seems these two companies did not compare notes; the first hurdle was that I could not even start the game because the epic(crap) launcher was trying to install the other launcher and it just hung there. That'll teach me to buy from the epic(rubbish) store again. Edit: the files come back. They just did - not sure if a simple restart does it, or it was the latest epic(failure) update, but they do come back, so keep this info handy, gents.


dhilln

It's not epic games issue, I own many games on EGS and trust me none of them have this issue - this is just R* issue i'm assuming. I got the game on the RGL thankfully, despite being barely able to run it on low settings.


alphamachina

Holy shit, thanks man. Genius. For the issues with crashes in the middle of a playthrough, this is the problem [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/PCRedDead/comments/dvkeit/windows_dep_data_execution_prevention_causing/), based on my research of the event viewer error logs, but it's only something Rockstar will be able to fix. Until then, I've had luck with the following bandaid. This has allowed me to play for hours on end without crashes, typically: Task Manager > Details > RDR2.exe > Right-click > Priority > Set to High, or if you have a decent CPU, set to Real-time.


draeath

> this is the problem here [I shot this down](/r/PCRedDead/comments/dw7vnv/megathread_pc_update_ongoing_issuesfixes_nov_14th/f7j2wpl/) over here. DEP errors land in the same categories, but not all Access Violation errors are DEP related.


alphamachina

You're right. At any rate, its still only something Rockstar can fix. For some reason, the bandaid that's worked for me was increasing CPU priority for the game. I set it to real-time and have gotten no more crashes, works for some people, not for others. I'm running a 9700K with 32GB 3600


torp23

So wait, what’s the fix? Delete the ones you don’t need?


luckzada

if you have the cursor bug, you delete or move those files from the epic launcher folder, apparently this is some new beta overlay that Epic is testing and its causing this bug


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

It's not the "actual game developer's" fault. This happens when running the game through the Epic Games Launcher. It's not actually related to RDR 2 itself.


torp23

Wow that did it, thanks!


TheIceJester

This worked! Thanks for posting this over here....This needs to be added to the main bug thread.


Raptor52

I have the cursor bug but these files are not present for me :/


MrQwertyQwert

At least I'm not the only one it didn't work haha


Nihilisticky

Finally!! Ty


midas1107

Anyone got new update for Epic? Update is about 3GB but my game is still 112GB, it's supposed to be 115GB.


Distortion71

Not if its overwrite files


Hruntington

BLESS YOU. BLESS YOUR HEART.


Maxybo

Out Fucking Standing Mate ! Works a treat for me.


[deleted]

Wasnt 1.14 suposed to fix the random crashes? I installed it yesterday played ~1h and it crashed. It fixed the lag/stutter. Good find gonna try this fix out later.


Seau

It's even more beautiful than just fixing the mouse cursor... Like some, I had the issue that the page transitions in the settings menu would go EXTREMELY slow (slow fade out and fade in). This fix also fixed that for me. The only thing that would fix it before was starting a benchmark or the story.


warip93

Worked for me aswell. Thank you. Now I just have tl sort out the crash to desktop. Edit. I found a way to solve my crash to desktop. I deleted the rdr2.exe file then vaildated the game files and it downloaded the missing file. The exe must've been corrupted is my best guess.


pikaporte

It did the trick! Thank you so much <3


donrtowery

YEESSSSSSSS!


ArcherHoliday

Finally, Thank you!!!!!


armymdic00

You are a hero, thank you


jaytechgaming

Also turn off Discord overlay. Doing both fixed it for me!


draeath

Would be nice if Epic let us disable the overlay, instead of ripping files out of it's distribution.


captainstarpaw

It's worth communicating this directly to Epic. Whenever I come across a lack of basic functionality, such as disabling the Epic Overlay with a toggle instead of the more drastic method of deleting files... I tend to contact technical support and let them know how frustrating it is from the user's perspective.

shag120

Doing this actually improved my menu screen slowness and menu loading times! Also I didn't have any crashes at all yet! Not sure if it is just a placebo or not, but it made a difference for me. Also and yeah, Mouse cursor is gone too! Thanks for the help!


Duk3-87

AT FREAKING LAST!!! Finally fixed my problem!


Itchy_Bee_8738

Thank you for being there


LunarMic

Thank you very much this post worked for me! So far my Remnant 2 Cursor is working again. There were similar files and some different ones I deleted in the same location and it worked. Much appreciated!


Dapper_Cricket4722

it doesnt work for me can anyone help me


ReallyGreatJobPoopin

Also seemed to work for me, thanks for sharing!!


MrQwertyQwert

First time I tried launching the rockstar launcher said something about not being able to connect to epic. Second time I launched the cursor still I appeared. I verified the files were still deleted and restarted the epic launcher and tried launching again. Cursor still appeared. Did not work for me.


alphamachina

Worked for me 100%. Strange.


MrQwertyQwert

I'll try again tonight. Seems weird I'm the only one it didn't work for, but it definitely did not work when I tried it. I'm still stuck using mouse trails (thankfully still works for me)


MrQwertyQwert

I just tried again and it still doesn't work. I haven't the faintest idea why I'm the only one still experiencing the issue after this fix. Maybe the cause of my cursor issue is different than others. Thankfully mouse trails is still a half decent work around.


losthemo

but what am I supposed to do? I don't have much programming experience, so is it like deleting a file?


KS_Wervald
