I knew somebody was going to respond with something along these lines. I guarantee you that every single suggestion you could possibly think of, and vastly (vastly) more, I looked at and tried. I would post the giant list of things I’ve done over the past 2 days, but I know it will just be ignored and will just be more finger pointing.
It comes down to the hotfix. Played Season 0-4, not a single crash. Not one. Patch happens on May 16th, and now I can’t go past 20 minutes without a crash. Hundreds of others are affected (just counting people who have posted on the forums, steam, reddit, and discord, that’s not counting the people who are affected that haven’t posted), people with 4090’s are affected. But sure, its the “texture quality setting” that broke it (maybe you should also read the various links I provided that has people literally saying they tried lowering graphic settings and made zero difference. And yes, I tried that too, and no, it didn’t make any difference. Not that it would, its a 4080 Super, not a card made 10 years ago. ).
Or, as referenced in a sticky thread on this very forum…
Continuing the discussion from Season 4 Issue Tracking:
Before the hotfix on the 16th was even pushed they recognized there was a problem with 4000 series cards, and they suggested that disabling “Frame Generation” would help people crashing (key word being help, not solve). Then they did the hotfix, where Frame Generation isn’t even possible to be enabled, and then people across the spectrum became affected. 4000 series cards, 3000, 1000, AMD cards, all over the place. For my part, I wasn’t using Frame Generation to begin with, and as I said, not a single crash until the hotfix on May 16th.
And yes, Ray Tracing is off too. And yes, a million other things have been attempted.
