There should be a new 3.0.1817.live patch.

it is fixed after that patch. Thank you.

I was hoping that those who see this post and own a 5000 series graphics card might be able to use it without problems and also mention their current driver version. However, it seems that either no one using the newer Nvidia cards is playing this game, or everyone is happy with this bug.

Not everyone with a 50 series has this bug; I have a system with a 5060 Ti, and another with a 5090 and neither has the issue for example.

That was also with a new DP install, with Driver 591.59 but I will update to the latest version and see if I can reproduce.

As I said, the issue is actually very complex because it is not a simple issue that can be reproduce. I will also make a ticket category for submitting DXDiag exports to see if we can find some common point for the issue, but it's unlikely to find a singular point of failure from similar issues in the past.


There are instructions for how to run DxDiag and how to save a diagnostic file. Upload the file and a screenshot so that I can compare things with other reports.

I have a 5060 TI, I tried numerous driver versions, every setting I could think of, every compatibility mode, every "fix" I could find online. Nothing worked.

DP is not the only game that doesn't play on the 50 series. There are many older 32 bit (and lower bit games) that have one issue or another because Nvidia dropped support for them with the 50 series. Nvidia seems to think people only play 64 bit games in 4k now. Some really popular lower bit games they took the time to make sure worked, but sadly, DP has a very small following, and is not important to Nvidia.

I researched this issue for months after I got my 50 series, and am lucky enough that I was able to just add my 3060 back in. A friend of mine got a new rig and gave his old one to his nephew. In order to play again, he had to pick up a clearance laptop. Luckily DP will play on just about any older hardware.

Yeah, sometimes we both get them, and it counts for both of us though.

Yeah, not all quests allow that.

What you're referring to are the street quests, and whoever triggers them receives the reward, or can interact with them.

You can try different drivers and see if that changes anything. As long as Seiichi isn't able to reproduce the problem on their end. They won't be able to do anything about it. You could also try running it in compatibility mode and see if that changes anything. Try around and see what sticks. If something sticks for you, post what did.

It's fine for a short move, that's why I said you have to set them up again afterwards.

Yep, got moved yesterday just fine. Thank again! I am actually right by Neoseptems house now lol.

It's actually the opposite.
To maximize egg hatching profits some people were crazy enough to fill their entire plot and storage with nests. They'd be getting double the amount of dragons that way - though dancers would only receive rewards for placed nests and not the ones in storage.

You're right, I'm not saying anything against that.
But we've entered a period where system requirements have increased. Gamers and users are now building high-end systems.
So, I'm basically asking, Do those Who want to play this game now have to live with this green bug ?
And since Nvidia isn't going to release a special driver for Dragon's Prophet anymore, I guess the answer is yes then ..

According to you, everyone with a 5000 series Nvidia card must be experiencing this problem, right?
So, does that mean everyone with a new Nvidia card has to play this game seeing these green lines?

Click to expand...

No, according to you, everyone with a 5000 (and possibly a 4000) series card would have this same experience, as it would be a server issue. Because it is a driver issue, it is different person to person.

When the issue is a driver issue the problem can be caused by the nVidia/AMD driver, the specific firmware specific to a manufacturer for a specific GPU, an issue with a specific model of GPU or even an interaction issue between different hardware (eg CPU bottlenecking your GPU, causing the issue). Outside of major titles or larger companies who have direct access to nVidia/AMD for driver validation or software support, there is often very little that can be done.

DP was released in 2012, with a graphic/rendering system specifically designed for Windows Vista/Windows 7; these issues are going to become more and more common because hardware is vastly different compared to then.

I have tried to reproduce this on 4 different cards (4060 Ti, 4080, 5060 Ti and 5090) across different manufacturers (ASUS, Gigabyte, Zotac and Founder edition cards). So far I have not been able to reproduce the issue, and will need to see if there is something in common with people who have made the reports.

The bug is not server side, the bug is a driver issue, as has been explained previously.

Similar bugs have happened since the release of the game, however with evolving hardware and driver implementations it's going to be more and more common for rendering issues to occur.

sorry, but I have only one gpu(5070 Ti).
And I definitely have no intention of buying another card because of this game.
You can be sure of that
I've been on Dragon's Prophet servers since 2016. In fact, I've been on other servers too, and I've never seen a bug like this on any of them.
I don't mean to cause any trouble. But just because We're using an Nvidia card doesn't mean I'm going to spend money because of a server-side bug.

Extending sale until the end of Monday night due to the double maintenance today and it will let me shift weeks for anniversary event.

You can also change your house even with eggs in the nest; you just have to put everything back in place. I have a large plot of land, but unfortunately, it's very bad – it's all crooked and uneven, and there are large rocks on it. It would be great if that could be changed later, since large plots of land are rare.

Oh, okay. I figured picking the nests up with an egg still incubating, would mess up the egg.

ingame press "I" and open market. There is a item named "Character Name Change Ticket" for 300 Diamonds. you can use search bar to find it.

Awesome, thank you. I had tried searching, but not knowing exactly what it was called, I couldn't find it.

Only one I found was to run 2 video cards. I just added my 3060 back in and told windows to use it for DP, and now it plays just fine.

But exactly I have same bug.
There is no fix yet for that ??
