TrinityGAME 2 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Occasionally while playing the game (in multiplayer as the client, not host, in my case), upon exiting the inventory, craft menu, map, etc. I will recieve a graphics driver crash error that will either crash the game or, in some cases, my entire PC and require a restart. I can't exactly get screenshots of the crash, nor can it reliably be recreated per se, but it happens roughly every 1 in 3 times I exit the menu. (This has happened one time upon launching the game, but not again) The host and I updating our graphics drivers, as the error suggested, did nothing to fix the issue. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, any workarounds yet? *Update* I theorize this may be an issue with directx 12. I use an AMD Radeon RX 580 and have an AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core processor. Dx 12 is notoriously awful with AMD softwares, but because I use the Xbox App and am playing the game with the gamepass, I'm unsure of how to fix this issue unless it may possibly be something in the game (I was not having this issue at all playing the game in multiplayer as the client player 2 days ago). As of right now this error is making my game unplayable, which sucks because I adore both the game and Obsidian as a company. If anyone finds a workaround for making the game run in dx 11, I'd love to hear it so I can play the game again.

There should be an option on the menu to use dx11. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xrachoox 1 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) This has just started happening to me as well today. I'm using a Radeon RX 590 and Ryzen 5 2600X. Exactly the same issue - every two or three times I exit the inventory or crafting menu I get a video driver crash. Drivers are all up to date. I'm also using Game Pass version on PC. Edit: I'm not playing multiplayer btw, just solo. Edited August 28, 2020 by xrachoox 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomohiko 2 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I'm experiencing it as well with my Radeon RX 570. This seems to be a compatibility glitch with the new update for these graphics cards. Needs fixed ASAP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ksandra McKay 5 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Same here except after about the third time of it crashing it crashed my card completely forcing me to have to hard reboot my comp. Won't be playing again until it is fixed. Loving the game but not enough to risk harming my comp for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Abram Moon 0 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 i'm using an rx 480 and im getting the same thing. (my drivers are up to date.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RazielDERF 72 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 This error originates from a Direct X issue and it seems to happen more with AMD GPUs. The team is investigating but haven't remedied it as of yet. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe the devs are working on this according to their Trello. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
