dx memory issue (DirectX Error, memory)
Hi,
After selecting a character, I can't get to next without crashing with low memory
Is there a memory leak or do I have low memory?
I have AMD R9 290 which has 4GB of memory.

my system has 8GB of memory.
Hi,
I found out the cause of my problem and fix.
I hope this can help someone.
I was getting low memory which caused it random crash at login as well as mentioned above.
Then I remembered the virtual memory: I've set to 1GB (1024 MB) as part of optimization that I set long ago (use physical ram and save space on SSD).
After changing virtual memory to system managed (which is meant to take as much as you need), it fixed the random crashing problem and works fine. My physical memory though is still at 6GB out of 8GB (leaving 2GB free).
For those who would want to check, you can check this way:
for Windows 8.1 / 8
- Window Key + X
- Select System
- on the left navigation, click Advanced System settings link
- Click Settings under Performance
- Click Advanced tab
- Under virtual memory, Click Change
- You can turn on Automatically manage paging file
- or, in my case, i select SSD and set System managed size instead of custom size.
I could play without low memory issue and can play with ultra setting... and now my video card heats up the room with loud fan...
I hope this helps someone 😉
