CTD Since start of Ultimatum, never solved

https://imgur.com/5pcVsJf

Still happening, no solutions presented, no debugging, no help.

This is REALLY disheartening to be completely honest.

After eight years playing and supporting the game, the one time I require help, there is none to be given.

Just sad honestly.

time to do a fresh windows 10 installation with correct driver and settings.
This included updated motherboard bios, chipset drivers and settings there.

Any type of OC on CPU, RAM and GPU should be removed.

Did all this, twice now. One time during Ultimatum, again last week.
I even swapped CMOS Battery.
Same story, I have had one crash per hour since the start of Ultimatum. Never crashed before.: Win7, GTX 970, 32 cores, 128gb of RAM, Vulkan renderer.

In the last crash, when I came back, my hardcore character had actually died somehow! So I am now much more annoyed, and I'm being polite here.

I even sent $60 to support the new league (because I actually approve the 3.15 changes), but it's hard to support crashes that kill off hardcore characters!

Well windows'7 is not being properly updated by Microsoft anymore so you will need to install a fresh windows'10 here.

What is your texture setting when using Vulcan. It has to be set to medium.

Else you will need to make your own thread, post crash information and full DXDiag report.
Yes, it is set to Medium.

Actually, everything is at minumum now.

i get crashes due to Tile hash: 541142058.... failed to load decal group big-mid-dual-big

Ryzen 7 2700X and Zotac RTX 2060 Super AMP

it was happening on Timeless Emblem zones before Expedition so i was skipping that content. Now its happening on every MAPS! Fix your game.
After getting to level 92 crashing every 20 minutes and 73 hours play time on the league, I finally managed to do GGG's tech support's job and find the problem.

The problem is ENGINE MULTITHREADING

I turned it off and despite much worse performance, at least the game doesn't crash.

This proves that there is NOTHING WRONG WITH MY HARDWARE.

It is a bug in the code that segfaults with multithreading on, must probably when sharing memory addresses between instructions.


Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8600K CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz
Engine Multithreading

Fix it!

This was my old pc up to one month ago -->
Core i7-3770K (5Ghz OC), 16 GB ram, Asus GTX1070TI Cerberus Adv.,
Samsung 840 500GB SSD

Ran with Engine Multithreading WITHOUT any problems for years.

New pc (AMD 5800X) and again no problems with engine Multithreading.

However dependign of your motherboard, Bios level / Bios settings / incorrect chipset drivers / hardware drivers, then yes if these are not correct then when trying to "maximise" performs your system can become unstable.

It can also be OC of CPU, GPU and RAM (XMP profiles).....
