Hamburg Hafencity Showing White Textures Before Map Disappears and Crashes

[PZM2850]

Hi, I recently bought the Hamburg Hafencity (and its expansion, the Linie 20 map) but every time I try to drive on it, it will start showing a white texture about 40mins in, and then eventually more white textures appear and the whole map disappears and the game essentially crashes. (Hamburg Day & Night runs fine though)

I have tried stuff like reinstalling the 4gb patch, lowering down the tile count and AI, but I don't think there was any difference. I've seen online that I am not the only one with this issue, but I have not found any fixes.

Do any of you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance~

That's most definitely a memory overload.
You don't tell us what specs you have, is this a laptop or desktop? Does your CPU have a very good Single core? This is very beneficial for OMSI2
I have a lot of maps and buses inc all the Hamburg maps and the huge Gladbeck.
Have you read the manuals for them and tried the settings they recommend? Or even used the 'load' option at the main menu for loads of map presets inc Hamburg?

I am using a laptop with an AMD Ryzen 7 4800H processor, and has 16gb of ram. I think the single-core performance isn't the best...

I haven't tried the settings presets or the ones recommended in the manual. Will try them and report back, thanks for the suggestion.

But to be honest, I thought my processor would be good enough to run Hamburg Hafencity, considering I could run London...

Sorry, what is this for?

If you're referring to the manual's location, then yeap I found it, thanks~

I looked through the manual and saw that it recommends dialing the number of tiles loaded down to 1, so I did that. Now it seems to be working as it should, though it still started acting weird (FPS suddenly dropped to 6 fps from 30 and never recovered, first time it's done that...) after about 2 hours, but I'll take that improvement and understandably, Hafencity is a very resource-intensive map. Thank you very much for your assistance!

Glad you’ve found a compromise.

Sometimes I’ve found you set the tiles to 1, don’t load side streets, AI buses can be down to 20 it helps, people I set to around 200.
What is your manual GPU allocation set at?
I have a GTX 1060 6GB so it’s set at 6,144MB
Save that and quit OMSI 2 Then restart the game again.
Set your fps at -ironically 30fps and try that. It can be a lot smoother than say 60fps

My graphics card is a GTX 1650 Ti and I set the allocation (I assume this means the "max. tex. mem. for high-res tex load" option) to 4096mb.

My tile count is 3 with all details (including side streets) loaded, AI buses are max, humans max count is 140. FPS is set to 30fps as well.

I will refer back to your comment if I face any issues, thank you for your assistance~

What’s your RAM on the 1650?
Drop tile count to 1 it’s a smoother long term experience.
Don’t do side streets - you don’t go down them nor look at them ;)
AI buses can be set at 20, again it’s not needed as it’s processing them on roads - hence why you see white textures on buses that come into view.
Some yes, but not into crazy figures. As I said do 20 and see how that goes.
The rest is fine
Mirrors Reflections ‘economy’
Try 256/512
Maps like the base game Spandau can be really smooth in the mirrors, due to it not being more modern.

It’s a subjective game.

My 1650 has 4gb ram.
Noted on the tile count, side streets, and max AI buses.
Mirrors have always been on economy, with reflection texture set to 512.

Ooo alright thanks.
