AMD GPU can't join Aberration

[123]

[Sgt Griss]

This is a WC issue with 6/7k series cards. Works on every server but Abb so this is a WC issue Not AMD. WC saying to roll your software back to over a year ago on AMD cards which causes issues with other games and the other maps.

I have a RX 6800 XT and no problems...

It may be a year ago but that's the driver mentioned:

"Hey @Steam/Epic Games playing ASA with an AMD card, quick update:

So we're still looking into the crash on the newer drivers and we've reached out to our engineering partners and AMD about it. In the interm, we've learned that some players have had success in eliminating the GPU crash on Aberration by rolling back their drivers specifically to this:

https://www.amd.com/en/resources/support-articles/release-notes/RN-RAD-WIN-23-7-1.html

We intend to fix the crash with AMD on the newest drivers, but in meantime this might allow you to get in game. Appreciate everyones reports and info to help identify the crash"

Why that far back? No idea...

Yes you are right, i thought it was a typo of them. With 24.7.1 it sadly doesn't work.

I bet they don't test the game with year old Nvidia drivers.

No mods, just vanilla.. crash every time. WC put out a pos.

2 fixes right now, & nobody is gonna like either of them:

1.) Downgrade your driver to GPU 23.7.1(have not tested myself but it's in the announcement on their discord)

2.) I can say from personal experience that it works perfectly fine on Linux with a full AMD system... Cuz that's my OS of choice. Totally reasonable to not want to switch OS for a game, lol, but there it is. Anyone who already dual boot for w/e reason, could be worth switching over to play ASA until this is fixed.

Can you join BattlEye servers?

Just tested the downgrade on my AMD card. Works fine now. Before that I also had crashes on trying to join Aberration

Sure, because nobody has a life outside Ark or games like Star Citizen and other programs needed for work etc. that require the latest AMD drivers to be installed. Not to mention, some BOSD's are caused by outdated drivers, so do it at your own risk and ask yourself....is it worth it?

[CriticalmaK]

AMD 6800 user, who couldnt load into the game.
I have tried a LOT of various commands.
using this launch command for steam will get you into the game but it wont look good :

-sm5

[Wizdum]

the issue is ARK does not working with new AMD driver 24.8.1 if your on the newest driver you cant play till ark fixes there issue.

[CriticalmaK]

You don't have to rollback, just try what I said. -sm5 as launch option.
Well, it worked for me.

Obvious question, are you using mods? If so, may want to deactivate them and see if one of them is causing the problem.

I disabled all mods & am running into the fatal error.
I'm running a 5900X w/ a 6900XT & using Driver Version
24.10.27.01. It's not a mod conflict issue.

to control fsr and fi, add this to the bottom of your Engine.ini [/script/ffxfsr3settings.ffxfsr3settings]
r.FidelityFX.FSR3.Enabled=True
r.FidelityFX.FSR3.UseNativeDX12=True
r.FidelityFX.FI.Enabled=False
r.FidelityFX.FSR3.QualityMode=1

Note:
r.FidelityFX.FI.Enabled=False <-- Frame Interpolation off (True for on)
r.FidelityFX.FSR3.QualityMode=1 <-- choose FSR from 0(min) to 4(max)

still waiting for the promised optimations oO

This is incorrect & should not be followed.

I've tested both the 23.7.1 & 24.7.1 with(out) your Engine.ini settings. The only fix so far is using driver version 23.7.1 for those that are having this fatal error issue. Driver 24.7.1 fails no matter if you force FSR3 on or off via Engine.ini.

What GPU driver & CPU are you using? I have a 5900X w/ a 6900XT & only driver 23.7.1 allows me to play on the Aberration map. Newer drivers up to 24.10.27.01 allow me to play on the other maps, but not Aberration. If yours is working on a later driver, then I wonder if there is another combination of things that may be effecting this.

You can also try 24.10.37.10 or 24.20.11.01, they dated only few weeks back.
Last official working Driver for me was 24.5.1/2
