Mid Mission Black Screen Crash

[Despoina]

I've seen some thread about black screen and crashes on the game but so far nothing seems to fit my problem. I've been able to play the game right with no problem until around your last fight with Mihaly. There I got a crash when watching the rewatch of the mission.

I didn't mind then but it happened again at mission 19 just at the moment I launched the mission to down the arsenal bird. I let my pc rest in case it was overheating since it was the first time I've played the game this long (Around 5-6 ish hours) but I really doubt that Ace Combat 7 stresses my pc harder than Witcher 3 in Ultra + some mods and that I've played for longer with no problems.

The game goes black screen and my pc freezes completely, the keyboard is still on but pressing say bloq mayus does nothing.

Right now I'm downloading the newest AMD driver for my card if it's that but if anyone had this problem It be nice to know if they know what to do.

Never hurts to do a file verification just to be sure, though seems more like GPU issue. It's weird that it didn't happen before that point.

I managed to play the final mission and the first special mission now. Tho it usually take a long time playing to the crash to happen again.

I only think it might be the GPU overheating... thing is Witcher 3 is far more demanding than AC7 or at least I think it is.

I'll just limit my time playing the game to 2-4 hours just to be safe (Today was my break day so I got to play a lot more).

Also I could just lower shadow res to lower the stress on the GPU.

Got shadows on low, lower postprocessing to medium and nothing still crash after a while. For thing it mainly crashes when an explosion is close to the screen since all crashes have happen when I get downed or when I shot that missile that took down the arsenal bird while I was too close.

I legit don't know what's causing this it's not really a problem with heat since after reseting the pc I go to speccy and the GPU is chilly compared to the other componets. Could it be a problem calculating the AI that overpower my pc?

To be more specific the screen goes black then it stops reconigzing the gpu but the whole pc then freeze. No other game has cause something like this.

Ok reading something in other forums it might be something to do with audio causing the freeze. I'm playing using a ps4 controller and my screen is connected with an HDMI. One possible solution for them was disconnecting all non analog audio drivers.... I guess I need to find a headset to try it then,

I don't know if this fully fixed it but I did the audio thing but also changed from borderless windowed mode to fullscreen (The res in borderless was weird) and limited the fps to 75 if my graphic's card panel was right I was getting 210 fps before.

With that I finally managed to do the ten million relief plan mission which was the most prone to crashing. Tho I think I'll need to give it more testing.

I just hope any of this might be use use if someone finds a similar problem.
