Summary of fixes and bugs AMD graphics. (Crash, flickering and win8 compatibility mode)

[ShawnTrack]

Until now the MH Wilds PC community who have mid-low range AMD graphics cards, are working on solutions since AMD and CAPCOM do not have the courage to say anything about it. Those of us who have not asked for a refund have faith that Capcom or AMD will fix either the crash issue (AMD is responsible) or the texture flickering issue (Capcom is responsible).

Since Capcom is asking RX 7800 users to install a beta driver to not to crash.. I lost all my faith in Capcom (and more seeing what happened with Dragons Dogma 2 in terms of optimization and bugfix). After saying that all we can expect is to have an update that solves one of the 2 main problems in less than a month.

Below is all the information we have:

** MAIN PROBLEM **

AMD launched an optional update for Radeon™ RX 5X00 or superior, so if you have an older gpu you are lost as we and you will experience:

1º CRASH at start. If the shaders cache has to compile, it will do for like 3 minutes, then crash and has to start again.
2º If you start with compatibility mode it will compile but the rock and wood texture will be a random flickering mesh of textures (its funny because if you record the screen for a few seconds and pause on every second, you will see textures of carpets, chains, cloth, monsters. The not funny part is epileptic attacks exists).
3º Bargaining 4º Depression 5º Acceptance

DETAILS

The crash is done by un-handle command on amdxc64.dll (part of the amd driver), in fact the error code is C0000005 that seems to access a forbidden register at the memory.

The performance in low-medium is okay for my PC (RX580 2048SP 8GB vram, I5 4cores 3,2GHz, 16GB DDR3 Ram. I get 50fps in 1080) but this flickering make the title unplayable (by the headache you get)

The flickering stop as you are near the affected object. So I imagine this has to happen because of the render distance. In fact some properties in the graphics options are like disabled for me, like sand texture quality.

There are a lot of solution proposed, neither of them actually works. Below are described:
- Changing the dstorage.dll and dstoragecore.dll to the version 1.2.3 (this will make game to not start but in RTX4080 or superior it makes you get 10-20 more fps)
- Clear shaders cache in AMD Adrenaline and shaders cache in the game folder with compatibility mode win8 in steam.exe and MonsterHunterWilds.exe. Then remove the compatibility mode in both and start. Doesn't work.
- Fix the typos in the config.ini file. This doesn't work and the typo variables work at they are (If you do that as a programmer you're out in 100% of the jobs).
- Remove the crashReporter exe, dll and folder. Doesnt work and make the game close instead of crashing.
- Install linux in other partition and run the game there with the latest amd drivers for linux. Still Crash for graphic cards under RX 5000.
- Say to people to update graphics when the latest we can get (including betas is from 2024). Really your intentions are nice but we recieve that messages like 50 times per post.

These days were great for AMD for their market strategies and more, but in 3 years when no one buys AMD graphic cars they will ask, why people don't want amd graphic cards?

Good luck AMD users, all we can do is pray to ceadeus for an update.

Basically is from the beta

Well that once again does confirm that we should be able to run the game and were able to run the game before but capcom changed something for the full release that broke it for us. This could also mean that they could revert whatever that was

[Whiplash]

It ran fine in first and second betas

I tried every solution and not working.
the black squares invade my screen and all sight is being darkness world.

# Current Driver Development
- Several issues related to the driver package were resolved during development.
- A generic device ID has been added for the AMDGPU family section to address issues caused by Windows Server unexpectedly changing the device ID
- The GPU Toolbox now automatically detects the installed driver version to prevent accidental overwriting during import/export operations.
- Querying GPU Toolbox presets is now twice as fast, thanks to the implementation of an indexing mode.
- More than 6,000 device IDs have been registered since the AMD 24.4.1–25.1.1 development cycle.
- The missing AMD BDCode display, which had been removed since version 24.7.1, has now been reintroduced.
- An error loop that occurred when opening the GPU Toolbox if the Radeon ID driver was not detected has been fixed.
- The GPU container has been updated for systems with switchable GPUs running Windows 11 24H2 or Windows Server 2025.
- The missing GPU container issue has been fixed for users running Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022.
- Fixed system freezing issues that occurred when MSI Afterburner attempted to overclock GPUs for running AMD GCN 1/2/3 Kernel versions 2109 or 2110.
- Resolved color corruption problems on Windows 10 version 1909 or later when using certain AMD SoCs, such as Kabini, Temash, and Kaveri.
- Resolved dx11 corruption issues on Ryzen Vega APU's on latest kernel such as 2320 or 2330

Can I get a tldr

[SeppNel]

TLDR: I tried the rdn-id modded drivers. It still crashes without win8 compat, and still flickers with it. Although anecdotally my gf, the one who is playing it on th rx580, says it flickers less (to me it looks just as bad)

dude surprised that old RX 580 even boots the game up tbh.

Love that thing, has a good home in my NAS box, but like...come on now homie.

Also beta drivers for AMD been out for a while now, this is common practice before new games to anticipate specific issues those games will have from internal testing pre-release. They don't push them to the mainstream channel yet though because they haven't had the proper time of testing.

Like I get it, I really do, I know what's it's like to not be able to afford new parts and to be frustrated with march of time as newer games become increasingly harsher on my system but your misplacing blame and anger on companies that exists solely for profit, not to anticipate and keep software relevant for hardware from 8 years ago.

When I was your age, can only assume, you couldn't even run windows on something that old xD

Face facts, and maybe ask yourself if PC gaming is really the smartest choice for you personally if you cant afford new parts, when consoles still exist at a much better price point.

It's a hobby, large apart of which revolves around the tech. Either stay relevant, or enjoy games already have. But this witch hunt esque thread dude? Just give it a rest, go do something else, and enjoy yourself. Remember that? Yeah, that's the point of playing games, not w/e this is.

Except you're missing the main problem. I'm one of the users having problems with a RX 580 card, and yet besides the flickering textures, the game runs at 70+FPS with no drops, all other textures look perfect, and my VRAM usage is barely at 50%
The card has more then enough power to run the game, it's just not optimized well.

It flickers less i can confirm

Mmmmmmmmmmm this thread sounds familiar. It explain why it crashes.. the Directx12.1....

Maybe it is time to accept that no one will come to save us. We (Polaris/Vega users) can't load the newest drivers and AMD seems to not gonna change that. Capcom doesn't really seem to care or acknowledge that this issue exists.
It seems our only options are:
-Using Linux
-Play with flickering textures
-Buy a new graphics card

wasnt there a third party radeon drivers provider i cant rmb the name nimez or something u cud try that


seems they have rebranded? according to this post https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/1fvqnnf/what_happend_to_amernime_zone_custom_drivers/

https://rdn-id.com/#features

they are third party and can potentially be harmful so before u try backup and remove sensitive data
