Re: Party variants cause crash

It pops up with the usual "Garden Warfare 2 has stopped working", like when a program freezes and windows tries to fix it but cant.


I rarely use fraps, and the only overlay i had running while the game crashed was the Origin one.

I'm personally assuming its the particles. 🥳


The crashes go like this;

Glitter everywhere - slight frame drops - crash

@Feelin-Woof

Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000

Driver Date/Size: 2/22/2012

 Name: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M  

10/3/2015

------------------------------------------

I believe what is happening is it's trying to use the HD4000 instead of the 650m.

First:

Go download the latest nVidia drivers here:

http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

While installing them click Advanced -> tick Clean Install   (this will reset all 3D settings to defaults)

(Restart if needed)

Force the 650m to work like this:

nVidia Control Panel -> 3D Settings -> Program Settings -> Add Program (PvZ:GW2) -> High Performance Processor

If that doesn't help at all and you still get the same error messages, please check here:

Open Reliability Monitor and look for GW2 crashes

http://www.howtogeek.com/166911/reliability-monitor-is-the-best-windows-troubleshooting-tool-you-arent-using/

Click "View Technical Details" when/if you locate a GW2 crash.

Fault Module line is what I'm interested in seeing.

I tried all this, and just now when i went to do infinity, i crashed again after getting surrounded and using the spinny attack. (Probably particles)

I would use that Reliablilty monitor, if i knew where to find it. Q_Q (I has danish computer, everythings labelled VERY differently)

@Feelin-Woof

This should work on any language:

Push WindowsKey + R  = bring up the RUN command window

type =   perfmon /rel

It didnt. :[
Computer's language is in danish, and it 90% of the time wont accept english.

Edit;

I found the reliability monitor, but i couldnt find any of the lines you mentioned.

@Feelin-Woof

Click around on different days and look for Red-X's from Garden Warfare 2.  When you click on it's name, it should have a blue "view technical details" beside it.

They may not be there but I sure think they would be if it crashes with the windows error boxes.

I'm still thinking it's related to your Intel HD Graphics and nVidia.  I'd double check your GPU drivers again.
