Hello guys! Last time playing Roblox, I was having crashes repeatedly.
After that I decided to take a look to log files. For who that don’t know where are they stored, press Windows + R and write %localappdata%\Roblox\logs
3 things got my interest whilst I was looking at log files. Actually log files don’t have to creep anyone, but it did creep me a lot. I don’t still know the reason behind it.
1. CRASH LINES
I saw these lines and thought they are the reason why game is crashing, so not the real reason but the function behind it. I don’t know what it means by WindowsLuaApp or NATIVE_EXIT but they kinda seem suspicious. Also these 2 lines were existing in every log file that I read, this is why I thought like this.
That is the point where I started to get creepy. I did see these lines in only 1 log file, and that is the point. It looks like log files are not processing chat messages but outputs like print(), warn() and error().
[FLog::Output] Hello to the person reading this! I know you are smiling
[FLog::Output] Hola, soy yeetcode medium!
[FLog::Output] Hello from Star!
[FLog::Output] Hello…? it’s me
[FLog::Output] Hi y’all >:D
[FLog::Output] When I get sad, I just stop being sad and be awesome instead!
[FLog::Output] live long and prosper
3. HARDWARE INFORMATION
Log files were including too much hardware information that I learned somethings about my hardware that I don’t know. Like D3D11 Adapter: Vendor 1002 Device 6759 VRAM 2032 RAM 3840
It seems like a developer of a game you joined printed/warned these creepy messages while you were still on the game. Nothing to worry about just an easter egg for people who like reading logs. As for the other things, I think roblox probably has access to the type of hardware you possess so that they can store and save data as well as access it easily while making use of the uniqueness of every type of hardware. Now for the crash lines, im guessing WindowsLuaApp is the compiler part of roblox studio that allows all the code to actually run. Im not really familiar with exit protocoles but from the crash lines it seems like your computer has requested an exit method the roblox experience. I can't really tell you why thats happening if you haven't initiated it yourself but basically whats going on is, a piece of code in some part of roblox core gui sends an exit function to the server of the game which disconnects you and runs every core function of roblox (saves data etc.) When manually exiting any game these two lines will pop up in the logs, I checked my logs from earlier this day where I played a game and found these exact two lines at the timestamp where I exited the game.
In conclusion, I find anything you noticed so far completely normal, the creepy messages are sent by a developer to freak out anyone reading logs, roblox probably knows about your hardware to make sure everything runs and won’t fall apart to any unknown or different piece of technology and the crash lines you refer to are completely normal and are sent to everyone every time they exit a game. However if your game keeps crashing there’s something else wrong, is it the same game everytime only, is it everygame? Do any messages pop up? If you cant figure it out and it keeps happening you could ask roblox support to see if its an internal problem with the site. If the site is working fine it could be your computer that is messing you up and there’s something wrong with that. Anyways, hope I could help.
About the weird log files, it seems like some roblox employee added them in log files of games. I've recently noticed them popping up in my logs from random times so I looked it up.
In doing so I found this from yesterday which indicates it is either what I said and someone from a game OP, me and also this guy made this to troll people reading logs, or someone at roblox recently put these messages in games to mess with people (I saw the texts at two different log files from different days which were recorded about a week ago and I didn’t play any game twice at this period so the latter seems more likely). Anyway I’m guessing nothing to worry about
