Crashing, freezing or graphical problems continue after a patch
The developer directs Steam players with these continuing problems to its linked file-verification guide. This is a documented diagnostic action, not a guaranteed repair for every crash. [1]
Documented steps
- Follow the File Verification Guide linked in the official patch notice. The same notice directs continuing issues to the official DAVE THE DIVER Discord. [1]
Entering Beetle Battle with the reward window open freezes the screen
The September 15 Steam update fixes a grey-overlay freeze when entering battle with the Beetle Battle reward window still open in Setah Forest. This is an In the Jungle content case. [1]
Mission objectives are missing or show inside a cutscene
The September notes fix missing or mistimed mission objectives during Investigate the Old Cave and Boat Chase after Chapter 4 entry. This is a mission-display correction, rather than a new prerequisite for those missions. [1]
Utara Fishing Rod catches only one fish
The update corrects the Utara Fishing Rod catching just one fish despite its description. The named rod is the scope of the fix. [1]
Legend of the Mural does not advance after a tablet photo
The August 6 update fixes Legend of the Mural failing to update after the stone-tablet photo. Its precise trigger helps distinguish a progression bug from an unfinished photograph task. [2]
