Unsolved the FIX for crashing, Freezing and stuttering for Nvidia users
3 Likes/8 Replies/205 Views
I've had countless crashes since I installed this game, I didnt play it before patch 1.6 so idk how it was but from what I've read it was stable.
the crashes I encountered were in random places and specifically during cutscense, when scanning water, desert or a city, when diving into water, almost any rendering causes a crash.
I tried everything from closing running apps in the background to stopping all services and disabling overlays from all programs, tried running the game with different settings aswell, NOTHING worked.
my PC setup:
CPU: Intel i5 9600k (overclocked)
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3090
RAM: 32GB 3600 C16 (XMP ON)
OS: Windows 10 pro
Nvidia driver version: 531.29 (latest driver) <=== the reason behind all the crashing
HOW I FIXED IT:- uninstall your current Nvidia driver by using a program called Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU), DDU download link: https://www.wagnardsoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4387: (https://wagnardsoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4387) - install this program and dont change any settings, just choose which driver you're uninstalling (GPU) in this case and click first option (clean and restart)
- after windows restarts you download Nvidia Driver version (528.49 - WHQL) - Nvidia driver download link: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/results/199655/ (this step will remove your Geforce experience program but it will reinstall it, if it didnt reinstall just click on the driver you downloaded again and it will install Geforce experience)
- after finishing step 1 and 2 make sure to go to Nvidia experience then go to driver and check the current driver installed is 528.48 (DO NOT UPDATE IT)
- in Nvidia control panel, make sure Antialiasing - FXAA is turned off (didnt test it with it turned on, but I read that it causes issues, so it was off all along)
and thats it, thats literally all I did, it didnt matter what I had opened in the background, I restored everything back to normal and the game stopped crashing completely.
I hope this helps, happy gaming everyone!. -

@Ubi-Clem Can you please fix this somehow?
I don't feel comfortable to uninstall my Nvidia driver.
I want to play the game the same way I play other games, without taking any additional steps.
Thanks, -

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
