The game crashes conitously when i try to load map for the first time.
The problem is a cache file Nfs22.PcDx12
when i delete it i can open the game normally but when i load into the main menu it appears again and forbids to load the game
EA pls fix
!: FIX HERE :!
deleted the file with DX12 in
\Origin Games\Need for Speed Unbound\shadercache
and the one in
\Documents\Need For Speed(TM) Unbound\cache
And the story started for me!
Theses people having a hard time too
PLEASE EA DO SOMETHING!
Turn off ea app overlay:
- click on your profile > settings > application > turn off overlay, accessibility, notifications
works like a charm
I see two things in your dxdiag, but not sure if they might be related:
First one is this one: "DxDiag Previously: Crashed in system information (stage 3). Re-running DxDiag with "dontskip" command line parameter or choosing not to bypass information gathering when prompted might result in DxDiag successfully obtaining this information"
Seems like some issue/error? Did you get any errors when running dxdiag?
Second one is this one: "Sound Tab 4: The file vbaudio_vmauxvaio64_win7.sys is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL). You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer. Sound Tab 5: The file vbaudio_vmvaio64_win7.sys is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL). You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer."
Maybe update/remove that driver (if possible) to see if it helps? Seems to be from some VBAudio driver?

I didn't see any errors when I opened up dxdiag. I can get a new one to see if there is anything in there.
The 2nd point there I assume is related to Voicemeeter Banana, virtual sound board thingy to add virtual audio inputs etc.
So here is the log from windows event manager.

Could this be a potential culprit? ntdll.dll? Might just give that a go before i leave game untill an update comes along

@PolarfoxPlaysCould be worth a shot for sure. Seems to be easy to restore this file.
Well, it got me alot further, now about 7 and a half minutes in (after the first police chase, just before whats seems to be entering the safehouse.
New error log pulled. Now its something to do with the rendering engine.

Whatever that is 😬
After a quick google. The Engine.render yadda yaddaPcDx12.dll seems to be a Frostbite engine support file.
Well, tried the old and faithfull removal of PcDx12files fomr the cache.
Got me about 10 minutes of playtime before game * out again. So i guess its off waiting for a solution from EA. Game doesn't even find anything to blame now in Event Viewer under applications, now it just tells me under the systems tab, than im running out of VRAM, Which is odd, as i have a 3060 12gb, so i shouldnt be running into issues with the card.
And yeah, im on the latest GPU driver.
