This is a similar bug to some that are reported, but I see some of those threads are lacking info or going off track (pun intended!).
So I wanted to provide you with as much info as you need to identify and track the bug. In a perfect world, this would resolve some of the other similar crashes reported. Following EA_Groguet's guide F1 25 How to report a bug EA Forums - 12211551
I am using F1 25 via steam. The game crashes on track load every time I launch a Grand Prix or Time Trial. I've not managed to successfully load a track in any combination I've tried. Upgraded to Nvidia Game Ready Driver 576.52 before playing the first time.
Confirmed F1_24 via steam on the same PC still loads and plays fine.
I have tried various ways/changes which still result in crashes but that I have captured diagnostic info for and is attached to the post.
crash 1 - . First run of game. Go to f1 world, grandprix and tried to load canada, hamilton, Ferrari. Loading screen appears, and after about 30 secs screen goes blank and returns to desktop. No additional diag data captured. No app crash reported in the eventlog.
crash 2 - repeated same steps as above. App crash reported in event log for this. captured DxDiag_dualscreen.txt, hardwaresettings and F1_25.exe.11252.running.txt
crash 3 - repeated same steps as above but selected different track and driver. No app crash in eventlog. Captured F1_25.exe.15140.running_crash3.txt
crash 4 - rebooted PC then repeated with different track and driver. No app crash in eventlog. Captured F1_25.exe.14472.running_crash4.txt
crash 5 - unplugged second monitor. repeated above. No app crash in eventlog. Captured DxDiag_Singlescreen.txt and F1_25.exe.3928.running_crash5.txt
crash 6 - repeated same steps as above (dual screen setup restored). but selected time trial F1 25. No app crash in eventlog. Captured F1_25.exe.32344.running_crash6.txt
crash 7 - repeated same steps as above but selected time trial F2 24. No app crash in eventlog. Captured F1_25.exe.32344.running_crash6.txt
I am willing to work with someone to troubleshoot and try things/retrieve info to help debug this. I just ask that:
- someone from EA responds and acknowledges this post
- If it is marked for needing more info, that you post what info I can provide (and how).
- Anyone else posting to this thread keeps it specifically about this crash circumstance and doesn't deviate to different variations on the described conditions.
Thanks in advance for your attention.
