Consistent Game Crashing [Exception code: 0xc0000005]

[GunnarBerwerf]

Interesting , i`m having issues with the dx11 client that are similar if not equal to what u were having, and they were so bad crashs on memory related things that the whole machine crashed sometimes.

It does not happen in other games , demanding ones like AC Unity for example , run fine for hours

I'll try the suggestions by paladin when i get home and ill post here the results

UPDATE:
i tried as paladin suggested (but i left the antialiasing on) and changed texture filtering to trilinear and aniso to 4x , and i can now log in and load on dx11 , i dont crash on teleports anymore too!!

Thanks

Game crashing for me as well although I'm getting different error codes in Windows log.

The program ffxiv_dx11.exe version 1.0.0.0 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.

Worth pointing out that this only began with patch 3.1, never had this problem prior to new patch.

just a head up, i had a windows patch cause me all kinds of problems KB3045999! Maybe try and uninstall it. Good luck!

Well it did work for 2 days, but then it went all to hell again, keep constantly getting blackscreens of doom and then computer restarts.... that only happens with the dx11 client and with FF14 only. I changed back to dx9 again, and have 0 issues with it. Unfortunately there is something very wrong with the DX11 client.

Ive investigated a little and a lot of other people are getting problems with it too, interesting tho its the majority having problems are the ones with new Nvidia cards, the 900 series. I have a 970 myself.

I seem to be having the same issue.

The most noticeable place where this happens is when I try to exit my FC house. Exiting into The Goblet from our private Goblet manor, teleporting to The Goblet from inside our manor, or even teleporting elsewhere from inside a house reliably crashes my game while using DX11.

Northern Thanalan has also been very likely to crash for me on load.

Regardless, I switched back to DX9 and I am no longer experiencing these crashes.

I'm having similar crashes, mostly in Western Coerthas, but it does occur in other areas.

GTX 560 here and game freezes, crashes, after log in game loads into a black screen, and game crashes randomly while playing on both DX9 and DX11 versions. This is extremely frustrating as I can no longer actually enjoy playing the game. Fingers crossed SE finds a solution for us very soon. *tosses a gil into a fountain and wishes that after maintenance, on the next log in, a patch/hotfix downloads that corrects the issue*

i have a 560ti and every once in a while it works with dx11, but it is "JUST" every once in a while.

i don't know, but there are "a lot" of users with this or similar problems all over the Internet but no statement from Square(at least i didn't find one).

I'm new to this game "very new" and i like/love the game pretty much so far, but this is making me consider... stopping to play it.

the game under dx9 is slow in comparison to dx11.

so please Square do something. Please

I'm having this problem as well with the dx11 client. I switched back to dx9 for a few days and didn't crash but that's not conclusive. I'm using a GTX980 and an i7 4770K. No overclocks on either. I've been running the game at max settings. I tried changing the settings as indicated in this thread but still crashed.

[MrConga]

Am having exactly the same issues as op. Game randomly crashes to desktop seemingly for no reason, happens in dx9 and 11, and whatever graphics settings I have on. Nothing suggested in this post seems to work I recently upgraded my graphics card to a GTX 980 before purchasing the game and am wondering if this could be the problem... seems to be a lot of people with 900 series cards having this issue !
