Problems with DX11

[Vontri]

Thank you for the reply Vontri.

There are a few things you can try to alleviate the issue. I'm not quite sure what you have tried so far so some of these may be a repeat:

1) Do a clean reinstall of your graphics card drivers (even if they are already up to date).

2) Disable other unnecessary programs and overlays (Geforce experience, Steam overlay, etc.).

3) Try a clean boot. Simply open the task manager and select the 'Start up' tab. Disable everything here and restart the PC. This will make sure that no background processes are interfering with the game.

4) You may also want to try a reinstallation of the game. When you do, make sure to remove the locally-saved data folder (located My Documents > My Games > Final Fantasy XIV). Be sure to make a backup of this just in case it doesn't resolve the issue.

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!

I have already done all of those things in the past, none of those have worked.

Quite honestly, I'd like to learn why this happens to FFXIV and nothing else. Can't we get a developer in here that understands these errors and maybe explain them a bit? I'd even help them as much as I could to maybe fix it for everyone... This has been going on for way too long and I'm tired of it.

I found the issue I think. I haven't had crashing all weekend.


All I did was disable discord's admin rights, and disabled the overlay. I can't use discord to talk anymore (PTT won't work with discord de-elevated and backgrounded)

So there's an issue here between those two applications. Glad I found it though.

That has to be coincidence. I've had this problem since before using discord. Not to mention the thousands of players who do use discord and have no issue what so ever.

I get that it shouldn't be an issue, but it seems to be in this case. Any overlays could cause it also. Try taking a look and see if that's the case.
