Maxo8679 0 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Xbox One Split screen shadow issues So since this past update my Xbox One did, when my girlfriend comes into our game on split screen all of her shadows are on my top half of the screen. It makes all gaming super difficult and I'm not sure if theres any way to fix it or if I just have to deal with it... Link to post Share on other sites
StellaLuxray 0 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I'm getting the same thing on playstation 4 so I understand how annoying it is Link to post Share on other sites
Dreyrfl 0 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Same on my ps4 since the released of genesis... It's annoying. And when I try to take several meats for exemple in the campfire (or in the inventory) It's one by one... Instead of all of them when we press the X button for a long time... Releasing a new dlc is cool... But... Try to perfect the others before doing so. Link to post Share on other sites
Dreyrfl 0 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 So much lag also... I can't open my inventory if the other player (split screen) opens his/hers... And can we talk about the gigantorus? Severals spawn on ragnarok... IMPOSSIBLE TO STAY ALIVE WITHOUT CHEATING... is it normal?! Link to post Share on other sites
KisaHitora 1 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Yes we are having this exact problem also on PS4! The shadows follow my screen when my friend joins. Makes playing almost impossible. Link to post Share on other sites
TheMindlessWanderer 0 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) On xbox, when my wife and I started playing on Genesis and we started noticing the same shadow effects on her screen half more so than mine (she was dying alot). It wasn't till we used the teleport function that I really saw the shadowing issue on my half. Edit: This issue is on all maps with split screen play enabled. The below picture is a tree from ragnorock where the second player is in view of the tree and first is not but sees the shadow effects clearly.

pargger 0 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 This and several other bugs after the latest update. me and my bf recently jut got into this game this week and it’s basically unplayable now. i hope they fix this soon. Link to post Share on other sites
Snarkywriter 2 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) My wife and I are encountering the exact same issue. We bought the game about two weeks ago, and it was fine. However, after installing this DLC and all the updates, we've encountered this issue. The normal shadows aren't appearing on my screen when I am looking in a different direction from her (I am the host), but as soon as I look in the same direction as she is looking, all of *her* shadows cover my screen and basically wipe it black, like in the screenshot above.

SnowboundGem 206 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Another couple here with the same problem. Link to post Share on other sites
TheShaiixx 2 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Same issue here! My boyfriend and I were very excited for Genesis to finally come out only to find the swarms in the bog biome are RIDICULOUS and that there was a shadowing effect on split-screen that makes it quite impossible to play for the upper screen's player. And this is on ALL MAPS! Very disappointing! It is super frustrating because we were literally playing without issue just hours before the release then... we downloaded the updates and DLC (after delay upon delay) and we still can't play really because of the split-screen issue! Hopefully they fix this issue ASAP! We want to play Genesis and we all payed our hard-earned money to do so! Link to post Share on other sites

Romes 0 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Just purchased this game to play with my son on 2 player co-op. Shadowing & lag make this game unplayable.

Just to give more detail to this (because I had to look it up on other sites): While in game, go to the pause/save menu. R button, L button, X, Y (all together, takes practice) - should see a text box open up at the top. Click on it then type in the command above. I've had it work typing it in shorter (all lower case) "cheat r.shadowquality 0" then click the admin button then resume. Not sure what the 1 after the 0 does but I'm going to try it tonight. I've been able to clear the shadows with just the 0. What sucks is you have to enter this every time you log in (after starting the game). However if you do options - save & exit - then exit to main menu (like we do to save the game several times a night) then shadows do not return. Link to post Share on other sites

After days of answering this question I just typed the command forgetting not everyone knows how to enter them so thanks for adding that.

Tx710 0 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 shadows in split screen are happening even after applying the cheat code. is there anything else I can do to turn off shadows or keep them from popping up on the second player's screen?? Link to post Share on other sites
