Day __ without a fix for the constant crashing... Poems
How long will it take lets find out.

Day Number: 34

(I will be archiving a copy of each poem in the replies)



Title: "Beyond the Thirty-Fourth Dawn"

In the digital tapestry where codes align,
Thirty-four days now, where echoes entwine.
Ark Survival's realm, a pixelated shore,
Yet fatal errors persist, a silent uproar.

Studio Wildcard, creators in the code's embrace,
In the hush of pixels, where crashes race.
Thirty-four sunsets, a calendar's refrain,
Crashes endure, casting shadows in the game.

Oh, Ascended architects, where do you tread?
In the labyrinth of errors, where players are led.
Survivors navigate the virtual domain,
Thirty-four days, and the plea remains.

Fatal echoes linger in the gaming lore,
A patch sought after, a digital door.
In the dance of bits, where lines weave fate,
Hope whispers on the thirty-fourth date.

Studio Wildcard, unveil the morn,
Quell the crashes, let a new era be born.
Beyond the sunsets, in the code's embrace,
Thirty-four days, and the yearning takes place.



Disclaimer:

I have already tried the following fixes with no luck incase you were wondering, nothing worked. My specs are on my steam profile page.

1. Turning down the graphics
2. Turning off RTX and menu animations
3. Rolling back Nvidia drivers
4. Using the back up save
5. Turning it off and back on again

I had this happen a few times today, all i did to fix it was bring up the whistle menu.

Crashing more today than I did before todays "patch" No changed settings. I had it running stable-ish with only a rare crash every several hours yesterday. Now I can't go 30 min without one. This is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ terrible frankly top to bottom. Spawns are still F.U.B.A.R too. ZERO penguins. Guess they went extinct. Also good luck finding beaver dams, guess they forget how to make them.

So much whining. Fix your computer. I have crashed maybe once since release, runs great, max settings, no DLSS.

yesterday's patch fixed it for everyone on the server i was playing on. sounds like its client side that is the issue.

If Nvidia, try rolling the driver back to 537.42

or

1st
download nvngx_dlss.dll Version 3.5.0
Download Link : https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/

2nd
Find the nvngx_dlss.dll file Version 3.5.10 that is crashing your Game
It should be located in:
\steam\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\Engine\Plugins\Runtime\Nvidia\DLSS\Binaries\ThirdParty\Win64

3rd
replace the nvngx_dlss.dll in the Win64 Folder with the nvngx_dlss.dll file that you downloaded.

I played for 7 hours with 2-3 crashes, but then it started crashing a lot.
Rolled back driver to 537.42 and it hasn't crashed yet.

Its a fixable problem. An official fix from either Wildcard or from a new Nvidia driver will be incoming.

edit: played for over 2 hours after rolling back driver without crash. Didn't clarify length of time.
