Game is freezing,trying to find cause,please help!

[Powaplaya27]

Hi,firstly Wreckfest is great,great job Bugbear!

Ok,so to the game freezing issue I am having.I can be in a race,in a menu and the game will freeze and I have to close application and restart.

This is the error message I recieve :

CreateFromMemoryFile(): Failed to create texture'data/menu/textures/icon_ai_040_medium_64x64_raw.bmap'(HRESULT -2005270523)

If anyone can tell me what is likely causing this I would appreciate it and welcome feedback please.


I have brand new 16GB GSKILL RAM,passes MEMTEST.
Fresh windows 10 64Bit install,no registry errors (sfcscannow)
I have reinstalled Wreckfest and verified file integrity via steam.
Hard drive is healthy
Deleted %temp% folder files.

My system is an Intel 4770k running STOCK
16GB RAM
Geforce 1080 GTX 8GB Xtreme edition running stock ( I actually have down clocked RAM by 1000mhz as apparently Micron RAM on Geforce cards is common to have issues)
850 watt PSU
1 Hard drive Western digital 7200rpm
Playing Wreckfest 1440P 120HZ,all settings ULTRA - looks/plays beast ! when PC doesn't freeze.
Any tech gurus that can help please respond!

As a side note Anthem and Division 2 have on occasion also exhibited this random freeze however I get a specific message in Wreckfest which is why I'm asking here.

I have noticed that the guys on youtube who can post hour + long sessions run in 1080p and phoink's comment that he's running in 1080p with ultra settings made me try 1080p - down from 1440p.

Hey guys, just a clarification.... Running ROG Strix GTX1080 @ 2560 x 1080 144Hz with all graphics settings to max.

I started to get regular crashes again - I couldn't finish a single race without a crash, so I gave up and rebuilt my PC.

All I installed was what was necessary for Wreckfest - Steam, nVidia drivers (not GeForce experience) and the game.

It works perfectly. Absolutely no crashes whatsoever.

I'll gradually start adding the stuff I use and see if anything takes it out.

At the moment my money is on GeForce Experience being the cause.

Great news Peter O!

#UPDATE#

As mentioned that I would pass on the results of the 1080GTX return to Gigabyte through my local PC shop. Received a refurbished 1080GTX as a replacement after a couple of weeks so this obviously confirms that the Geforce was at fault.
Not overly impressed with the replacement card as it has this 'kinda of oil' over the card which I figure is from whatever the technician has sprayed on it during the refurbishment process.
So I'm switching from Gigabyte now and trying MSI as I hear they are a decent manafacturer.

As a side note I put a 2080RTX Gigabyte (vanilla version) card in my system temporarily and at stock speeds that card ran at 87 degrees and throttled in game which did not impress as it clearly had lack lustre cooling.
For a $1300 graphics card to have (IMO) substandard cooling unless you shell out another $150-$200 for their better cooled version of the same card is not accepetable.

Good on everyone who contributed on this thread and offered help :)

So was it a bad video card or Nvidia Geforce software causing the problem?

[Ted Maul]

I don't think it's my card contributing to my issues.

Interestingly, the game ran perfectly after I'd rebuilt the PC and just installed the game and what was needed to play it (drivers, Steam etc).

After a few weeks, and I'd say 10-20 hours of perfect running, I plugged my Oculus Rift back in, and installed the software for that.

Now I'm getting frequent game crashes again.

Which means, obviously and unarguably, that Bugbear need to implement full VR support into the game.

It's not plugged in when the game starts correct?

[Ted Maul]

When I first rebuilt the PC the Rift wasn't plugged in and the game worked perfectly.

Then I plugged the Rift in and installed the drivers, now it's crashing.

The Rift is now permanently plugged in,

Purple44 - It was a defective 1080GTX graphics card,specifically the RAM on the card.

Then you must unplug the Rift until the inevitable patch corrects this issue.

Hi there,

I’ve had this problem for 1 week too.
I have an MSI 1080 Gaming X with a screen 144hz and I have found a solution to remove this bug.

In my Nvidia driver, I activated the "Max frame rate" option on 90FPS in the 3D parameters (program parameter for wreckfest). Wreckfest is not a First Person Shooter just a race game, 90 FPS is enough for this game.

No more fatal errors since, I hope this solution help you, It's not necessary to change GPU for this bug
