Keeps crashing in Forge area , DX12 problems

[iTraumatik]

EDIT 2 ... Turned off DX12 and back in game , will see if it crashes again. DLSS keeps turning on when set to OFF

EDIT.... Ran out of forge area got thru first venom combat then did mission after that and then the game froze , cant even play anymore , it either freezes on loading save or just crashes to desktop. I also force quit nhamic and avolute thru task manager since some games dont play nice with it.

AAA game

Other UE games not crashing but this 3 times when i examined forge, examined the "blue ball" by forge , and just entering that area.
Also you can get stuck on trees and not get unstuck so Save often.

Turned off DLSS and still crashing inspecting forge again.

Guna necro this to see if you have a solution, but I am also getting this with a similar build to you outside of ram differences and drivers which are newer at this point.

DX12 is crashing me when I load my save in the abbey (i guess next to the forge?). HOWEVER on my ROG ally it does not crash with the same save file which leaves me to believe the crash is primarily an NVIDIA issue with dx 12 and some sort of loading problem in general as my Ally also gets extremely poor performance upon loading in that area.

Running DX11 is one way to avoid this issue in my experience.

I also just tried running out of the area, and saving in the woods. Game launched as you would expect it to! I tried running back into the abbey and through the common room and the forge, I inspected it to along with other things and no crash at all strangely enough!


TLDR: Im not sure why this is but turning DX12 on and saving right at the common room infront the forge (for me atleast) does not let me boot without crashing, so if I plan to save I will do it outside from now on

Sry i dont remember what fixed it. Might have been one of their updates that fixed it for me. I usually update nvidia drivers with ddu (display driver uninstaller) make sure option to stop windows updating drivers , install with nvcleaninstall just the driver and physics only, clean install driver option when installing nv driver.
Also i clean install win 11 every couple of months if something is acting janky.
