    Suddenly getting DX11 errors with great frequency.

    I've been occasionally getting errors since the day I started playing, perhaps maybe once or twice every few weeks. They've of a more minor nature, simply forcing the game to close, as opposed requiring a total system restart or inducing blue screens. They also only ever occur while I'm in the middle of gameplay.

    However, ever since Stormblood released, the frequency of them has gradually increased, and it's hit a new high as of the 4.01 patch, occurring every hour or less.

    For a time, toning down the graphics (Namely, enabling low-detail models on distant objects) seemed to stop it. However, when I logged in today (After a Windows 10 update, coincidentally), I was getting smacked with them every 10 minutes or less (One of them immediately after logging in), and it was making it a huge hassle to play.

    I typically play in windowed mode, but have currently switched over to full screen to see if that stabilizes things at all.

    The errors were almost always of the "ffxiv_dx11.exe followed by random error code" sort, with a single kernel32 error mixed in at one point. I also sometimes just get the "unexpected problem" error, instead.

    I'm using a Nvidia GTX 1060 and have tried several suggestions regarding tweaking its settings that seemed to fix the problem for others, but to no avail.
