Fixed PC Crash Issues (For me at least)

[Serion15]

I was consistently getting the GPU Crash Error with a 3080 at least once a night. Kept happening until I did these steps:

1) Turned graphics to Low

2) Turned “Render Scaling” to 95

3) Anti Aliasing and resolution type to: TAAU

4) Open Steam > Library > Right Click Marvel Rivals > Manage > Browse Local Files > Find “Marvel Rivals_Launcher” and right click > Properties > “compatibility” tab > Check both the “Run this Program in compatibility mode” and “Run this program as an administrator” box.

This DOES seem to make the game start up slightly slower (assuming because of compatibility mode), but it runs completely fine now and have had 0 crashes. Worth the trade off 100%

*I also turned off all NVIDA and Steam overlays as well as “verified game files” but still crashed until I did the steps above.

I just did the thing with the "start application as admin" box. I've been playing for around an hour since and no crashes.

After setting the admin permission, the launcher then told me that there is a corrupt file and tried to repair it. it went on for a couple of minutes and after finishing the "repair" I checked the launcher exe againm to see if the admin-checkbox is still on. It still is and therefore should be launched as admin.

So maybe, there are indeed some files corrupt but because the launcher has no permissions to scan/repair things, they stay corrupt and crash the game at some point. or the launcher needs admin permission to do whatever whenever.

At least I can say that I didn't get a crash within over an hour of gaming (winter event & quick games).
Before that ,the game crashed after approx. 2-3 games of the winter event, pretty reliable.
So I'm not saying that the issue is fixed with this but at least the crashes did not happen for the longest time the last 2 weeks.

the only fix that actually worked for me, thank you

run in compatibility mode only shows an option for Windows 8 or earlier for me. Not sure which you selected? I am trying the rest of the steps without that one for now.

I hope it works because the game is so good and so much fun when its not crashing me out of a comp match every 3 or 4 matches.

Actually, the crashes came back. But now I know why and what happened. my RAM was unstable due to a BIOS bug, so I had to tune it down to 5600 MT/s (was 6000 MT/s). Now everything works perfectly fine. So it was not a game issue, in my case at least.
