Opinions Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 For a number of times I have used Vauban's vortex ability in a crowded fight and the whole game has locked and crashed to desktop. The main culprit has been having 3+ of these things running and it feels like the game cannot figure out the physics involved to keep going. I am now using other frames and a friend of mine decided it was a good idea to spam 4 of them out in 1 go - He can carry on but I lose out. Is anyone else having any similar issues? My system is fairly hefty, even to the point where the support guys are complimenting me on it so I doubt its a resource issue but I am happy to be proven wrong. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Did you overclock anything from your system. I once had a similar crash and that was due to a bad overclock: Voltage on GPU for some reason resetted back to default while I didnt notice and it made me crash so that was an easy fix.

The system is OC but was done professionally and under warranty. I have had no OC issues since my upgrade in December Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3leaZ Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) The system is OC but was done professionally and under warranty. I have had no OC issues since my upgrade in December What does the crash look like though. Does it say that "Warframe has crashed" or does it say that "the graphics driver has stopped responding". If it is the latter it could be an OC issue. EDIT: Just did my own tests on max settings (Including Bloom, Colour Correction and Bokeh DoF/Blur = Argh my eyes....). I was running very smoothly with no input lag. Used 4 Vortexes, no crash, while retaining smooth fps. It doesn't seem to be the game for me. System: Intel Core i7 2600k @4.2Ghz - Stable EVGA GTX 570 OC'ed - Stable, latest non-beta driver. 8GB 1333Mhz Corsair RAM 250GB Samsung 840 SSD Edited June 12, 2013 by R3leaZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Linkski Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Just a heads up, we have since been able to reproduce this issue on our end and are currently in the process of working on a fix. It looks like a potential workaround for the crash would be to run the game with Nvidia PhysX Effects disabled, so I would suggest trying that until a fix is submitted.

Opinions Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Thanks for the replies The 1st thing I did was disable PyisX and also turned down some of the textures etc but the screen still locked and had to crash out manually. I'll see how this update goes and let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayasakikun Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 this has happened to me once before also. Recently no, so not sure if it was fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just FYI, vortex will crash the game and I'm using an ATI card that doesn't even use PhysX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opinions Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Looks like the patch has sorted it - I'm spamming Vortex quite happily now! Well done Devs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Linkski Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Looks like the patch has sorted it - I'm spamming Vortex quite happily now! Well done Devs! Correct. The Vortex crash should now be fixed. If anyone manages to get it again then please be sure to let us know. Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
