Resolving crashing issue (Nioh.exe stopped working)

[Jun-san]

To those people who has facing the issue with crashing (Nioh.exe stopped working) during the gameplay, I just find out the best solution for that.

Just right click of your mouse > Access to Nvidia Control Panel > 3D Settings > Manage 3D Settings> Program Settings > Add and select "Nioh.exe" > Convert the preferred graphics processor to "High-performance NVIDIA processor" > Hit "Apply" and done.

With using this method, the crashing issue should be stopped. But to me, it really worked for me, even can improve the FPS and also can use Ansel to take screenshot. Using low end pc never had issue with this graphic settings.

This only works if you are using onboard graphics AND have a discrete graphics card. Certainly not an issue for me since I don't have the former. And I still have crashes. So no.

Switch to AMD.

All this does is make the game use the GPU, which it's designed to.

Any crashes "fixed" by this are merely issues relating to insufficient capabilities of integrated graphics chips -- which the game's not even meant to be played through.

This is no cure-all (no cure at all?). I had an AMD card that recently gave up the ghost and felt that NVidia had the best available option to suit my budget and requirements this go-round.

The game crashed before the switch in hardware and continues to crash post switch.

It generally occurs when first launching a mission although I had previously noticed a nasty tendancy to freeze up or crash during the mission with the giant skeleton (source of all evil or something like I believe)- in particular in the house by the shrine closest to the boss, every single time the skeleton inside that house attacked me the game would instantly crash/freeze.

The game just has bugs and odd glitches.

I never had problems after switching to amd. I didn't have to change settings at all for all games.
