Low video memory message
Hey, i am just wondering how do i turn that message off since the game runs just fine near 60 and above depending of locations and i only get that message when i tab out of the game and tab back in running with a rtx 2060 and ryzen 5 2600 also with 32 gb of ram and i just want to turn of that damn message since it is annoying even going to old locations where it doesn't run to hard and i just get the message but if i never tab out it works just fine

Use DX12 instead of Vulkan

You have a macro for that? You seem to be pretty one-note.

This has been an issue for many (not all) Nvidia users since the September update along with other things, (Low FPS, Crashes, White box appearing on screen etc) you'll see this forum awash with troubles since September.

Sadly neither R* or Nvidia seem to want to address the issue/s.

You can turn off the notifications in one of the settings menu's, I don't recall which but I think that may also interfere with other notifications like the presence of legendary animals etc.

You're best to google that.

Edit - You're better off staying Fullscreen rather than Windowed but if for whatever reason that's not an option then if your card supports it use an earlier pre September driver.

I'm using 516.94 and I've not yet received the spurious low video message on Fullscreen and only once when windowed.

Switched to dx12 seems to have removed the issue but will have to play more to see if it is truly gone

Yeah since i don't recall seeing this issue when red dead online launched on steam played it on pc for 1 year seemed like everything is ok there were stutters but since now it seems that there are some patches for performance when last time i played and the game runs smoothly sometimes dips below 60 but rarely and overall cant see any stutters dx12 seems to removed the message but again gotta keep playing to check if this is the same case for those people that could fix it to

It was the same for me, I thought DX12 fixed it, but a while later, in certain light and at certain times of day the message re-appeared.

Go to your Steam installation folder, check "Date Modified" and you will see new FSR files were added and a few original files were "updated" in September.

So wait you fixed it right since i tried looking for the FSR files you mentioned cant find them

Meant to say, don't try to fix something they broke, let them fix it.

Sent me halfway mental when this message started appearing after 1300 odd hours of trouble free gaming in the same world with a relatively new PC.

ffx_fsr files were added

Apparently people have found a fix for this issue but it uses a mod to remove only this notification which sucks but hope that this gets fixed since it is getting a lot of attention and will catch rockstar by eye so that they will work on it

3 months on, don't hold your breath, but I still hold out hope, if only on the part of Nvidia rather than R*

In DX12 you'd get a pop-up from WinOS saying out of memory. I generally don't have the issue after setting a Windows PageFile to my OS SDD as 32GB min and max. The issue with always having RDR2 say running low on VRAM in built into the game popup system, it cant be turned off. All you can do if you run it under Vulkan is either lower the visual settings or restart the game more often.

Also many have issues because Windows GameMode is enabled, disable that. While it works OK for some games it doesn't work good with games like GTA 4, 5, TRILOGY; RDR2; TOmb Raider 2016, Rise or TR, Shadow of TR...

Doubt that Nvidia will do anything but im thinking of turning off the notifications since i have played this on xbox many times so not sure what i will see anything new in this game also windows performance settings help out too but ech this is annoying

Bad Motha you're a great and helpful poster but people really shouldn't have to take the measures you suggest after tens, hundreds or in my case over a thousand hours of previously uninterrupted play after an update.

Well thats why other people go further to find if it is fixible or not like modders in cb2077 just to make it playable from stutters even now in rdr2 modders that are removing the message but knowing rockstar modding is dangerous so for me aint a solution

But cheers to yall that are giving solutions and telling the state of the game happy new year and have a good year :lunar2019piginablanket:
