Freeze or Grey screen/ Loading screen

@sh2t8qvcxls

Initially set grass to 0 as mentioned in the known issues here

if that doesn't help , place the video card driver in debug mode as detailed here

I've set the grass to 0 and will test it out. Does the Grass slider affect more than just landscape? Many of my freezes occur on the imperial fleet or in flashpoints.

Reducing the Grass slider to 0 did not solve my problem. However, placing my cards in Debug Mode has seemed to stopped the grey screen/ hard freeze. I hope this gets fixed either via patch or Nvidia driver soon.

What brand of card is this ? it maybe worth checking the card manufacturer for a firmware update

the debug mode returns the card to reference clock speeds , evga for example for 980 lowered clock and increased voltage states in the firmware that helped this issue.

Edit - found one thread here on that issue.

I appreciate your help! You seem to be on to something here. I have two EVGA 970 4GB DDR5. Apparently it has 1190MHz clock speed and 1342MHz boost clock speed "to help meet the needs of demanding games" (taken directly from an advert). I'll try going to EVGA and seeing if their is a firmware update.

The post link you provided proved to be valuable as it seems I'm not the only EVGA card holder who is experiencing these problems.

least you can play stable in debug mode, honestly reference clock speeds for the 970 are fine in my view 🙂
