Ascent to Madness keeps crashing

[Jora.5471]

ATM keeps crashing at random times and I don't know why.

[Chaba.5410]

Not using any third-party add-ins, are you?

[Skyroar.2974]

Same. Nearly every skill I use crashes the game.

[Jedhug.2645]

Experiencing the same issue

 

Graphic settings : unlimited fps, native sampling, low shaders, lowest on everything else.

Edit : yeah it was the shaders being on low causing the problem.

[leila.7962]

Same issue, I tried using the clean client, without arcdps, still crashes every time i use a skill on MK. Tried on guardian and holo if that matters.

[Rubi Bayer.8493]

We are looking into this right now--I will keep you posted as I'm able. 

Editing to add a quick question: Those of you who are affected, what are your graphics settings?

[Bloodstealer.5978]

and so it begins with an unplayable event ... every attempt to run ATM it crashes as soon as any weapon skill is used.. testing at its finest !

[Shin.2019]

I have been on lowest graphicsbest performance settings and mid tier graphics settings both are crashing on me.

 My graphic settings are all set to low, keeps crashing every 30 seconds in ascent to madness, every other aspect of game is fine

EDIT: hubby is on all high settings, he switched to low to see if he will crash too and he didn't, so don't think it has anything to do with graphic settings

I put everything in the lowest.

[Rubi Bayer.8493]

Thanks to all of you who shared info on your graphics settings. I compiled your answers and passed them along to the team. I'll keep my eye on things and keep updating if I can.

[CupCake Apostle.9314]

Adding what I've discovered on my own side to this.  Using a ground target skill while on low shaders instantly crashes the game.  I've had crashes outside of that context, but that is the most easily repeatable crash I could get to happen

[leila.7962]

I was crashing with my guardian and i went on a low level naked character and I didn't crash.

[mygodisthesun.1725]

Same issue here. Settings are on the low.

edit: Tried doing the instance with another player 6-7times. Crashed after every skill use. Did not recieve chest...

Edited October 17, 2023 by mygodisthesun.1725
Multiple crashes...

[devzero.4093]

I'm also getting the crashes, here are my settings: https://imgur.com/a/fMpaYiC

And here's the crash text, I can provide the dump file on request:

It may not be for everyone, but this seems to be the same as what has been crashing us in instanced content like strikes.  I  just crashed myself checking. Typically crashes after about 5 to 30 seconds into an instance if shaders are on low.  Anything higher than that will typically stop the crashing.

Thank you so much, that fixed it for me.

Ascent To Madness crashed consistently for me if I used any ground-targeted skills (guardian longbow, necromancer scepter). Shaders on low, made no difference. Finished instance by avoiding use of scepter skill 2....

I never had issues with strikes before but setting shaders higher than low seems to have fixed it. So it seems like the issue is with the 'low' shader setting. The crash report also mentions shaders.

This fixed my ascent! Switched my shaders from Low to High xx

[Garbage.9437]

Just as a question for others who are crashing, are you guys on amd gpus?  my main pc crashes which has a rx 5700xt  but my other pc with a nvidia 1060 doesnt crash. thought id ask to see if it may be connected

[Zelinath.3584]

Graphics card doesn't seem to be the determining factor, after doing some asking around cities for other people seeing crashes and a few reported both amd and nvidia. An nvidia 2080S and 3080TI both seeing crashes here. Switching shaders to either med or high does seems to be fixing it, group managed to finish Ascent to Madness out with no crashes after everyone adjusted settings up a bit.

[Garbage.9437]

hmm, ill give it a try after i finish installing. tried fresh download to see if it was corrupted files before i checked the forums xD

[Skyroar.2974]

Low shaders seems to be my problem as well. I just entered the instance with medium shaders, used my skills and nothing happened. Changed to low, and got an instant crash.
