New PC Game Crashing
Joe Farmer.2063 replied to Runecrest.8940's topic in Account & Technical Support
Just out of curiosity, is EPIC launcher running? There is another thread where that was an issue. And always give memtest86 a try. Running from an alternative bootdevice, CD, memstick or similar. The memtest from Windows is garbage. Only finds errors when it is completely broken. -
Please fix the weird tilting already! [Merged]

Was easily able to reproduce this in the puzzle. Extremely annoying. -
Trouble with the installation
Joe Farmer.2063 replied to qwer.8952's topic in Account & Technical Support
There is not much of an installer in the usual way. If there is a Gw2-64.exe, just start this one, it should update itself and start downloading. You can also avoid the download by copying youre whole GW2 folder over from youre old PC. That folder can also be moved around to another drive for example without re-installing. -
New PC barely any FPS in comparism to other games
Joe Farmer.2063 replied to Loku.5328's topic in Account & Technical Support
Aaand here we go again.Look at this thread, everything is in there to (hopefully) solve youre issue.https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/103342/amd-5700-xt-stutter-and-multiple-second-image-freezes#latestThey really should make one of those threads sticky. -
Still, I would give d912pxy a try.I have a similar system, just 3700x instead (waiting for Zen 3 :)), same outcome, dp912pxy improves gameplay a lot.But could also be that AMD improved its handling of DX9 meanwhile. It is a known issue, driver team worked hard the last years, so there is hope :)I did not try it without since December, when I built my rig, so I can't say how new drivers handle it.

Technically I think it's shaders that are being compiled if they are not in the cache. But yes, still happening, and the visual effect is what you describe.But after a while it only takes a moment because most stuff is already compiled and saved in the cache. And apparently you can download precompiled shaders.Frankly, haven't tried D9VK yet, so I cannot say which one is better, if there is a competition at all. Started with d912pxy, solved my problem, did not look further I admit.

Thanks, disappearing cursors confirms what I read with a quick run through the internet.I'm also running with 144Hz Freesync monitor and can confirm youre experience. It is one of those moments, when you were quite happy with youre rig before, but afterwards you think, damn, should have bought the new one earlier :)Otherwise it seems I have been lucky. Rarely problems with multiple monitor setup (144Hz, 60Hz), stuttering in GW2 easily fixed with d912pxy.So I will keep the -1 in mind but will stay with 0 for the time being. At least it seems fixable in drivers, RDNA2 is still some time away.If I find the time I will experiment on the Windows Game Mode somewhat, seems that is not always a good idea.

Frequent Crashing in PvP- Crash Log Included
Joe Farmer.2063 replied to Domino.1359's topic in Account & Technical Support
Have you tried the usual?With usual I mean start GW2 with repair option, delete GW2 cache, or delete/download GW2 completely new (takes a while though)? -
Give DX912PXY a try if you are on Windows 10.Not because of more FPS, but it enforces another render path, DX12.If that happens since an upgrade to GW2 they might have brought in new/changed shaders that run into an error on youre GPU drivers.I have the feeling DX9 is somewhat neglected nowadays regardless of AMD/NVIDIA/Intel.

No more open world 'raid-hard' content ala TriWurm?
Joe Farmer.2063 replied to Noobix.3958's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
In general also TT etc. has been nerved actually. When I started doing it with gw2community it took us very much longer to beat the heads.In the beginning you could not hit it critical for example. Consumables like Fire Element Powder etc. were requested back then, still have half a stack on my mains.HPs were not nerved, but you can do more damage now. Regarding loot, they should think about making more of it sellable on the TP.Disadvantage off course, you can simply buy it, no need for the specific boss, advantage, more people might want to do that boss for a chance of gold.The specific loot would go a little the way of the infusions, but not that extreme in the long term. And you can still always try to get it yourself. -
What settings are using in the Radion Software for that gw2-64.exe?I have everything turned off currently. Especially the Chill function I'm very suspicious about for games that need FPS. Great for games you spend a lot of time in menus. Regimentz, did d912pxy fix youre problem as well, or do you still have issues? In general issues with DX9 for the RDNA series of AMD still seems to be a "Known Issue".And yes, GW2 desperately needs an overhaul of their engine. I'm not talking DX12, that is nonsense as it locks it to Windows 10.Vulkan would be a better option, that brings Linux on the table, but locks out Macs, at least without an inofficial translater to Metal.But very likely the don't have the man power and maybe also the deeper knowledge of their engine anymore ...
