If You're Having DirectX 11 Crash Issues, REPLY TO THIS!

Turns out that in my case, I had to disable the XMP profile of my memory. Not sure why as it was working fine with it activated up until a month or two ago.

Prior to disabling XMP I had tried most everything including a fresh Win 10 install with the latest Nvidia drivers, disabled the integrated GPU, tinkered with all kinds of settings in the UEFI, nothing worked. Sometimes I could go 5-6 hours without crashing, other times it'd crash back-to-back within an hour of logging on.

Been running stable for a week solid now, probably about 50 or so hours of game time, and it hasn't crashed once.

Not sure if it will help anyone else but give it a shot.

Problem is in the game it self, and don't have anything overclocked and same problem

I seem to have solved my version of the problem, and this might help some others as well.

After trying everything else that's been suggested here and on Reddit, I took a look at task manager while FFXIV was running. Lo and behold, it was maxing out my GPU just sitting in town with nothing really going on. For reference, my GPU is a GeForce TITAN X, and shouldn't be maxed out by FFXIV.

I went into the in-game settings and messed with the frame rate limits, while tabbing back out to the task manager. Setting the limit to 60FPS didn't help, but setting it to 30 made the load drop substantially. It now sits between 60-70% of max load, depending on what's going on.

I haven't had a DX11 crash since, but it's only been a day and a half. If it happens again, I'll update this post to reflect that. Hope this helps some others figure out their issues.

Edit: Well, two days in and got another DX11 crash during the Rofocale fight. So not a real fix. It did definitely make the time between crashes longer though.

Yep having it too. Game was ( and is generally ) working perfectly but as soon as I initiate the cut scene for the quest "Into the Dar" in Rak'Tika the game crashes with a DX11 error. The rest of the game works perfectly, not sure what to do, tried everything.

This is the exact issue I'm having, everything works fine but trying to trigger the "into the dark" cut scene in the MSQ crashes me with that error.

Has it been fixed? How did you get past it the first time? I've tried everything I can conceive of.

Was able to play most of today fine. Went to go do the machinest quest Release the Hounds get into the event the moment the lala's spawn "only 3 spawn mind you yet the game sees a lot more on the filed which are not there' and this comes up. Its not my machine thats for sure and after hours of playing today this just starting out of no where with no windows updates going on something is going on in the 14 server backend to kick back.

Addon: Oh and turning off DX11 does not work. Just does the same thing.

Got this one last monday:


Looks like a copy+paste of the previous one I already posted:

I've had these errors for over a year now, but a few months ago I disabled fast boot to fix other issues and now it seems like my FFXIV works properly again! Haven't done extensive testing yet, but so far I managed to stay in game for 30 minutes without crashes where as before my longest record was less than a minute.

Guide on how to disable fast boot can be found from the below link:
