screen freezes

[hotcoffe]

I get alot of screen freezes like every couple minutes , using dx11... /
Is there a solution for this ?

Try dx9, it has helped some.

The frequency is kind of alarming, though.

There are a few hundred variables which seem to be involved in this.  For instance, I cannot, for the life of me, make my computer freeze/pause with the DX11 version.  Others get it every 2 seconds.  There is no rhyme or reason for it.

actually i started out with Dx9 and it freezes more often in Dx9 then 11  ,thats was the main reason why I switch to D11.

I diabled the vsync...seems to help a lil also helps a lil with rubber bullet issue...

If you are getting freezing/pauses/stutters in DX9, then something else is going on with the computer.  Usually it means the CPU is being taken away from running the game by another process, or the computer is running out of some resource.

Running with vertical sync disabled will cause other problems.

I noticed that the screen freezes don't effect the FPS counter (cntrl-I). Maybe the issue/code that causes it is outside of that context?

If the CPU is being taken away from running the game, then the FPS counters cannot be calculated, nor updated.

VR-DX11 has zero screen freezes.  When i run dx11 regular ah screen freezes are quite common.

Here is a .dmp file that I had found in the HTC temp folder of a dump that occurred yesterday..................

Hope this helps.

Didn't mean CPU contexts, I meant coding (Probably got the wrong term).

I noticed that when I alt-tab in and out of the game, the FPS seems to fluctuate from about 74+ (above V-sync) back to 60.

Skuzzy,

Is there a DX11 version of the game sans VR coding to see if VR is causing this for the none-VR players?

Please post those in the Bug forum.

Yes, we know. but there are different manifestations all being treated like they are the same one and they are not.

No one has been able to reliably duplicate the one we are looking for and not all computers do it.  HiTech has never had the issue on his system, nor have I (home or work).

All we know for certain is it has something to do with DX11, as other games have had the same problem, but others do not.

I download gamebooster from razor and it help alot, now freezing only happens once every 20mins or so... (probably one of the background apps. running  was main cause of it happening so often but did not waste time on checking investigating which one)

I can log in, but that's all.
If I do something, it freezes and kick me off line --> Host connection lost.
No matter DX9 or DX11.

So cant play at all. Or can if you count you sitting in tower and not turning your head.

Sounds like a bad network connection or a computer running out of resources.  A DXDIAG output would help.
