I had the same on my Ryzen 5 2600 with a 6 Gb gpu. It mostly happened when i maxed out the graphic settings and it was raining. First i set the refresh rate to 60. Seemed to work but happened again later on so i set the graphics to high. Don’t know how to solve this either

This worked for me, and worth trying, sorry its a long post.

I have had the exact same D3D error messages, texture allocation failure errors & crashes with F1 2017, very similar, very annoying, and only when playing F12017.

I have RTX2070 and originally had everything on ultra.

I spent ages changing settings and making notes, and in the end, I am now playing without crashes for quite a while. Can't guarantee the following has cured it completely, time will tell.

I still haven't narrowed down exactly what causes it, but anyway, after lots of changing settings, it seems to be some kind of conflict between nvidia settings and ingame settings.

In Nvidia control panel/manage 3d settings/Program settings, I created a profile for F1 2017.exe, turning OFF pretty much everything, so that the game controls most of the settings. Then I turned all game settings down to medium.

Now it seems to work ok (so far).

Here's all my Nvidia control panel and game settings:

Current settings:

Nvidia Control Panel Settings
3D Settings F1_2017.exe

Ambient Occlusion not supported
Anisotropic flitering off
antialising - FXAA use global (off)
antialiasing - gamma correction off
antialiasing - mode override any app setting
antialiasing - setting 2x
antialiasing - transparency use global (off)
CUDA - GPUs none
max pre-rendered frames use global (use 3d app settings)
monitor tech fixed refresh
multiframe sampled AA (MFAA) use global (off)
openGL rendering GPU Geforce RTX2070
power management optimal power
preferred refresh rate app controlled
shader cache off
texture filtering aniso sample on
texture filtering negative LOD allow
texture filtering quality high performance
texture filtering trilinear on
threaded optimisation use global (off)
triple buffering use global (off)
vertyical sync on
VR pre rendered frames use global (use 3d app settings)


F1 2017 ingame settings

Video Mode:
RTX2070
2560x1440
119Hz
Fullscreen
aspect auto
vsync on
vsync int auto
output 1
antialiasing off
anisotropic off
HDR off

ingame advanced setup (graphics)
set to low preset.

**If this seems to fix the crashes, then raise the graphics preset to medium and see how that goes. My crashes return when I raise it to high - I'm just happy to be able to race again, but still keeping notes when I race and hoping to be able to raise the graphics further eventually.

Hi .. I have tried something new ... I was using 2 monitors when i played the game , so what i didt was just to take the second monitor cabel out off my graphic card, so i was only using 1 monitor when i played the game ... ( No discord or spotify) This was all I did .....



Under nvidia control panel settings



adjust image settings with preview : Let the 3D application decid



Manage 3D Settings : is default, but i use (Let the 3D application decid) under adjust image settings with preview




------In game settings-------



Race.........Settings



Short - Qualifying



Race one distance 25 %



------and I had the graphics on ultra high ------



shadows : ultra+



ambient Occluaion : HBAO+



SSRT : shadows on



Anti-Aliasing : TAA



Anisotropic Filtering : 16x



Today i played the game for 3 H 45 m , I did all the practice and race in Australia and China .... I didt not get (The D3D Device has been removed! Reason: 0x887A0006) - ( The D3D Dvice has been removed. Try updating your drivers or changing your graphics/texture settings to lower the video RAM requirements) It worked fine :-)


I cut not do this before.....


It looks like now i can play the game on the ultra high graphic settings now :-)


When I do a in game 1 lap Australia benchmark on my 2080 Super I get like (150 average FPS) with ultra high graphics ,,,,,Heavy Rain,,,,,,, shadows : ultra+,,, ambient Occluaion : HBAO+,,,,, SSRT : shadows on ,,,, Anti-Aliasing : TAA ,,,,, Anisotropic Filtering : 16x :-)

I've been having this issue too. Are you saying I'm going to have to play on medium graphics, even though my computer should be able to run at ultra without breaking a sweat? :steamsad:

The game still works fine now , I can still play the on the ultra high graphic settingsGrine and I have like 146 avg fps . I've also tried to use Discord when i play and that (works fine to for now ....)



After I have taken the second monitor cabel out off my graphic card ,and only using 1 monitor + use the nvidia control panel settings ( as I have described 2. mar. kl. 20:55 ) maybe people/players can change these under he nvidia control panel settings


The works for me now , I can play the game on the ultra high graphic settings , (and I have played the game a lot now on the ultra high graphic settings) :steamhappy:

I've tried all of the suggestions in here but none of them have worked, I think there's no hope left.
