How do I enable Trace Mode?
If you are experiencing problems, often a trace file can be a big help for us in finding the problem.
To enable tracing, open your game, go to the Settings menu, on the Troubleshooting Tab, and change the Trace Mode setting to "Write OOTP debug info into file".
What we would usually suggest next is on the same page, select the "Open folder containing debug files" and have that ready.
If you are experiencing a problem, with the trace mode enabled, if you can go and reproduce the problem (a crash or some other issue). From there, if you go back to the folder that opened above, you will likely notice a file called something like ootp_trace_2025-03-12_23-45-48.txt. That is the file that we need. If you can attach it to your bug report post, or send it to me or Lukas Berger in a private message, that can help us track down the problems in many cases.
Note that if you restart your game with tracing enabled, the file that we need most may not necessarily be the last file in the folder (if you sort by date modified). Please feel free to attach or send all the recent files. You can zip them together and send as a group if you wish. Thanks!
