Jungle Ruins Vulkan+DX11/12 BUFFER UNDERFOW

[Afterlife, Ghost Groping]

game crashes in all Graphics API's to a Buffer Underflow error.

I've never heard of underflow, but overflow is a thing when data surpasses a capacity in a variable like integers or something.

Perhaps it's the opposite if underflow where the value heads backward below zero and it jump back to the maximum value?

In any case this would be a developer oversight or fault as the game server dictates the maps you go to, the instances that functions, the inventory and character stuff that gets loaded.

not too sure to be fair, but it seems to be a rather large issue according to the PoE2 forums with over 65 PAGES of users reporting in on the issue, and since its the holidays GGG isnt in office right now :/

Did you tried low graphic settings, maybe something helps, wich class?

ive tried verifying game files, Deleting All API Shader Cache files, and changing graphics settings and APIs with the same error 6 times now :/

its at the point where im gonna have to use another machine to load the game to move my character.

im just hoping GGG sees this issue here on the forums and can gather info to produce a fix going forward :)

did you try different graphics driver, maybe try to disable multithreading in game settings

Then it's a server problem, and likely one created by their own actions since there are a lot of unimplemented stuff that the game logs tries to load.

Look into the log files of your own game files and check for "critical" logs.

If you provide a screenshot of the actual error when the crash happens, then I can be sure its server sided.

At the very least I can read some code to discipher the cause.

you could be right, either way, even using a different PC resulted in the same Buffer Underflow error, so its not machine dependent.

I Hope that this works and its not something gear/skill related that will let you stuck

I have the same since the last update, I checked everything is nickel on the GPU side. but I hope they will correct his

I play quietly and simply leave the game after hours of games ..

Took a look at my logs yesterday and saw a bunch of "missing textures" and such in the logs so yeah, the game is incomplete and may have broken items that can brick your game.

Yeah it resolves itself likely because it closes the instance you are in, henceforth deleting old variables on the server RAM that might be complicating your issue.

Buffers and such are stuff about variables being stored in memory, so merely waiting you have the server flush itself out when you return to continue again.
