[FIX] Most crashes including save corruption and challenges

[ChaosInJapan]

This is how I managed to solve all my crashes and after suggesting this to others, their crashes got fixed too.

Quick procedure: Open regedit.exe (the Registry Editor) and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers
Create a DWORD (32 bit) key called "TdrDelay" and give it a DECIMAL value of 10.
Reboot your computer and see if the problem is fixed. I could even load what it used to be "a corrupted" savegame.

Explanation:
Basically it allows more time for your GPU to respond as it should. Try it, reboot and see if it works now. If it doesn’t, you can remove the entry. In any case, It won’t harm your PC.

If it worked for you, please don't forget to comment so Nixxes can see it

My PC and settings:
CPU: i7-13700KF
GPU: 3090 Ti
OS: Windows 11 22H2
Resolution: 4k with DLSS on Quality
Settings: Everything in High or Very High. RT reflections and shadows enabled.
Latest Nvidia drivers.
I haven't had any performance issues before or after using this fix.

This won’t help with the crash during the Prawler boss fight There’s another thread for that with a beta code that solves the issue.

by doing some research I was able to see that I was not alone in this case for the transparent outfit bug https://steamcommunity.com/app/1817190/discussions/0/3727323721770953756/

But can you explain why my game doesn’t crash and i have delete the tdrdelay 😆😆

the two tdr settings are not present in the registry to begin with as it's always been on.

you only add those two settings to experiment with increasing the delay or disable it altogether. adding a longer delay just makes the game crash a few seconds later than the normal almost instant crash.

by removing those settings you are just leaving Tdr on.

the crashing itself on this game is by definition "random". so if your game is not crashing, you don't need to do anything.

for example i have had no crashing on spider-man remastered, only on miles morales.

ok thank you so should I leave the register empty or should I add them anyway and set it to 0??

So this has sorta worked for me. I dunno why now. But it's starting to crash whenever I start something at this point.

Edit: Okay, set both to 0. It sorta work. But now it just freezes and crashes on retry for challenges.

TdrDelay = delay before recovery.
2 = default 2 seconds before recovery
10 = 16 seconds before recovery, ideally you'd want to recovery as quickly as possible.
don't ask me why 10 = 16 as i do not know. i suspect it may be an invalid value.

1 = 1 seconds
2 = 2 seconds
3 = 3 seconds
4 = 4 seconds
5 = 5 seconds
6 = 6 seconds
7 = 7 seconds
8 = 8 seconds
9 = 9 seconds

try higher numbers and you will get what looks like an incorrect values (11 = 17)
which would be 17 seconds and so on...

that's how i understand it.

The numbers are in base 16, not base 10.
1A = 10 seconds
1B = 11
1C = 12
1D = 13
1E = 14
1F = 15
10 = 16
