Vulkan crash after v2.9

November 23, 2019 3:36:51 AM from Ashes of the Singularity ForumsAshes of the Singularity Forums

Anyone one else having this issue after update?  Knock on wood, there have been very few issues for me with this game so far, even pre-release.  It just seems suspicious that this shows up after a big update.

DX11 runs ok, Vulkan crashes to desktop right after loading the assets, same w/the benchmark.

 

System:

Win8.1 x64

32GB RAM

I7-4790K stock clocks

GTX 980 8GB stock clocks - driver updated 11/21

Playing @ 1200p.

Anything else?

Tracked it down to "Texture Quality" in video settings.  Low & Mid are all good.  High = CTD when  the map is ready to start.  Maybe a VRAM issue?  The game launches using ~1.6GB at menu on Low, ~2.4GB at Mid & 3.5GB at High.  After digging bit, I realized my GPU is only 4GB, not 8 as was stated in previous post.

If this is the culprit, a more graceful error message might be called for - lol.

The solution to this symptom was to full remove existing drivers and reinstall.  However, this was with a AMD Vega card and used the built in video driver removal AMD includes in their driver.  As is the case with Windows YMMV.
