Game freezing with Intel i3 / Dual core CPUs

for me its just freezing

Stable fps or not??
I gonna try it now.

Crash at the moment to enter a match. xD

what thread? can you link it please
thanks!

Hey guys, any news??

yeah for me it freezes and when you try to tab out and go back the screen goes black

If it helps someone, but I don’t know

  1. Set 59 FPS maximum
  2. FullScreen
  3. Disable Dynamic render scale

At the expense of --tank_WorkerThreadCount 2 and -thread 2 commands, don’t know how much they help, but just in case I prescribed

played 9 skating rinks without freezes

PC Config:

16gb RAM


[UPDATE] → USE COMMAND IN STARTUP GAME --tank_WorkerThreadCount 4

That’s nice, but the 10th match freeze/crashed?

can you send a shot of the commands screen? i am still unsure about how the inputs must be done (quotes? no quotes? same line?)

Use Win+tab, create new desktop, open Task Manager and close the game
or
put the task manager on top of all windows

i have probably 20+ hours already on the training range fidgeting with cpu usage and game settings triying to find a workaround.failed to cross 5 minutes with no crashes in 95% of the times. ill be testing with this settings and let y’all know in 60 minutes.

thanks, i’ll give it a try later

maintenence in 3 hours

I hope they fix this problem now

glad they are aware but I wouldn’t get my hopes up it’ll be fixed this downtime unless some other fix ends up resolving our issue too

there is nothing about maintenance work we now have the 08.10

tried this, doesn’t work :frowning: crashed on training range

and even if i think they’re just starting to work on it i don’t think they’ll have a fix for it in a few hours
