Infinite loading bar

I am constantly fighting this issue in my Abomination Vaults game. I have hardware acceleration on and safe mode enabled and it won’t load reliably. :frowning:

Hi there :wave:

Please open your dev tools console (F12) and refresh the page, then post a screenshot of any errors you see there.

Couple of things could be going wrong:

  • A browser extension error could be preventing the world from starting.
    I’d recommend trying in incognito mode to check if it works with extensions disabled.
  • Antivirus or security software could be preventing the world from loading over websocket.
    Try to add a whitelist for forge-vtt.com to your antivirus software if you have any, and try opening in browser incognito mode.
  • Hardware acceleration is enabled in the browser, but the OS is preventing the browser from using it.
    Check out How to fix/turn on your browser's hardware acceleration 's section on enabling hardware acceleration for the browser from Windows directly. Sometimes, battery saver features can cause the OS to prevent the browser from using hardware acceleration.
  • The world size is too large, and the world fails to load over websocket.
    Check out World Size Check for more info.

Hope that helps!

I uninstalled my anti-virus software and it began working. :+1:

I just started getting the infinite loading bar, I get it for my own game, and for 2 games where I am a player. Log below

Hey there :wave:
Do you encounter this with modules disabled? It looks like a type error which might be pointing at an incompatible module or module error

My computer used to run Forge fine, but since I had to restart it Forge is no longer loading properly. I have all of the regular settings enabled, and while my screen isn’t technically quite big enough, it always ran fine. Now I have the infinite loading bar, and have tried everything to stop it. I don’t know what is going on

Hello xerc

Have you checked our Grey Screen troubleshooting documentation?
Are you having this issue with one specific world or all of them?

If it’s just one world;
Can you load in with Safe Configuration enabled?
What is the overall size of the world in question, and does performance improve after chat history has been cleared?

If it’s more than one world;
Try disabling and enabling Hardware Acceleration again on your main browser.
Does the issue persist with Chrome, Edge, and Firefox?
