8 years agoCrashing to Desktop
I experience random crashing in both single-player and multi-player. There is no error message, the game simply closes. However, it appears that crash dump files are generated; I can provide them o...
Hey @DokkenFrosst sorry to hear about the issue you are having with Battlefront 2!
So first off I removed of your post as they where in all caps you are more then welcome to post again with following are rules on the forum.
For the issue it self, can you upload a Dxdiag for us to see what kind of PC you have a drivers.

Found a possible solution, if you're on Nvidia. while messing about with EVGA Precision, due to the fact that event viewer was showing a shedload of nvidia driver crashes whenever the game crashed (no visible error messages however)
1) I found that SWBF2 was running with GPU clocks that were WAAAAAY above what my card can run stable at... not sure why it does this but it does, seems like its overboosting the card as I noticed peak core clocks of over 1300Mhz before it crashed... which my card simply can't handle on air cooling and stock voltage
2) Normally my 780Ti GHz Edition can boost to a stable 1250Mhz on the core and 7Ghz on the VRAM, which is basically the card as it came out the box.
3) To seemingly SOLVE this issue with SWBF2, had to run my card as follows: -50MHz Core and -300MHz Memory. with power set to 100% and Temp set to 86 Centigrade.
4) This then showed the in-game core clock as: 1228Mhz, with 6.4Ghz VRAM. Runs happily on ultra no FPS drops and so far no crashes.
Hope this works for any other Nvidia users, because rolling back drivers doesn't work, that's an AMD only fix - trust me i tried.
My card isnt an EVGA card. its a Gigabyte card.
The factory overclock is completely stable, except SWBF2 seems to try and run the card ABOVE its maximum stable clock speed.
Not a single other game has this issue, and I've tested about 30 other games, from old to new all on various different game engines.
The fact that when i load up something like say: Fractured Space or World of Warships and they run at the correct clock speeds and DO NOT randomly crash to the desktop with no warnings... tells me that the card with its FACTORY clock speeds is in fact STABLE...
I ran it for 12 hours in furmark. Max tempt was 81*C, clock completely stable, no graphical errors, no crashes, nothing. OCCT even checks out as being totally stable... christ the cards ASIC quality is rated at 72% which is more than 54% higher than the other 780Ti's in GPU-Zs sample base, which since its quite a well used program, is well A LOT of 780Ti's...
