Bug Reports - Vulkan unplayable issue - Big black squares on the screen - Forum

yesterday i experienced this symptom but it was an issue on POE overlay. After I restarted POE overlay, both the game and overlay worked fine.	Posted by atstania on Jun 24, 2020, 11:12:04 PM Quote this Post
I rolled my video driver back 2 versions, the black squares are gone now...but the invisible mobs are back. TBH, it almost seems like mobs are hitting some kind of 'effects attached' cap. Because the ones that are invis are almost always the ones with multiple auras or particles, or sometimes I'll attack a mob and THEN it goes invis.

Tried turning off particle culling and it got worse if anything (different map with more fx though). Ran a defiled cathedral map with DX11 and like... 1/3 of everything was invis Boss started visible, then turned invis once I started hitting it. A friend of mine told me: " I got invisible mobs on the simplest-looking maps. And, it appeared to be random for me Many of the things that were invisible had been on the map before, un-invisible. In lab, there were invisible cannibals... but I saw non-invisible cannibals 2 seconds later. Same on-death sounds, and no aura effects around them or anything. it's mostly been happening to me with humanoid influenced mobs lately, though and again, I see the same mobs that were invisible before, fully visible you can recognize influence mobs by their abilities	Posted by Reithan on Jun 25, 2020, 12:01:12 AM Quote this Post
Its the latest NVIDIA drivers which caused it, rolling back my drivers to the last one fixed it completely.	Posted by GarryOnMain on Jun 25, 2020, 1:03:23 AM Quote this Post
According to NVidia site and my own memory, v451.48 dropped TODAY, and seems to cause the black blocks issue. However, I rolled back to 445.87 - Release Date: Wed Apr 15, 2020, and while the black blocks are gone, I still have performance issues and invisible textures. Previously to today, I was running 446.14 - Release Date: Wed May 27, 2020, both for the Vulkan beta in 3.10 and the 3.11 launch. Vulkan 3.10 was amazing. Perfect performance and basically no issues for me. 3.11 has been stuttery, lags out on large mob pack spawns, and is riddled with invisible monsters and bloom issues. So, while 451.48 that dropped today does seem to introduce 1 new issue at least, it's definitely not the ONLY issue.	Posted by Reithan on Jun 25, 2020, 1:12:43 AM Quote this Post

You have tried switiching driver, but between that you also need to del shadercache. As it will interference. shader created by different driver may incompatible This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

I'm on dx11 for now, waiting for a fix, but i'll definitely try to downgrade drivers to 445 and let you know if it fixes anything. And no, i don't use an overlay. It's strange since the black texture referenced in the screens is "behind" the map (map works normally without issues). I'm gonna post my Dxdiag asap too !
