ALLOCATE MORE MEMORY!! HELP
I have 16 GB DDR4, i7 6th Gen 6700k dual quad core, GTX 970. The game keeps crashing and saying it ran out of memory. I looked at task manager and it says it was only using 6000MB of Memory and i know im not using the other the rest of my memory (I also have the game & windows 10 on my SSD). please tell me how to allocate more memory because i know my PC can handle it

Thank you

ps. i wont take "No" for an answer :P

You may try to set priorty to "high"

1. Open task manager and SE
2. Go to services and find SE
3. Right click
4. Priorty
5.High
6.Done

Why are you assuming the crash is due to a lack of memory?

After a crash due to memory, it asks you to change your memory preset when you restart the game ^^

This error can be triggered by mistake when Vrage crashes, got any dll hooks installed or any mods that hook into the game by any chance?

What exactly is the error - word for word? Paraphrasing isn't good enough when it comes to diagnostics.

I cant remeber exaclty what it was all i know was it said ran out of memory or something else about memory. I mean there cant be too many errors that have to do w/ memory, right?

there probably are a lot of memory related errors aren't there

Well sometimes SE can crash and it has nothing to do with memory but it throws up that error message, now firstly does it crash when you get to the menu, before or when you load a world?
DMATH Jul 6, 2016 @ 7:08am 
If the game crashes before you can get to the menu than try re vaildateing the game.

If it crashes when you load a world try disabling all mods.

If all else fails try running the game in dx9 and see if the issue is still their
