I have the feeling that the game does not use my GPU

Post by choryphe »

Hi,

I 'm having crash as soon as any battle begins in zoom mode, here is my crash log attached to this message.

I have a AMD radeon HD 7950 3 Go, but the last line of the log seems to point to the graphic renderer of my CPU,

What do you think about it ?

My bad, the basic renderer option was enabled in my settings option, so I set it back to my GPU but the game crashes aswell. I have submited my new log in the dedicated forum for AMD cards.

Please try the new 1.0.6.2 beta update, especially this new game setting which we think may resolve the remaining crashes, especially battle crashes:

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you still experience crashes with 1.0.6.2 or later, especially crashes in battle, please try the new DXVK rendering option in the game settings. This can be found under "Rendering Mode", which can be switched from DirectX 11 to DXVK. This will likely resolve many issues caused by driver bugs or incompatibilities. If you try this setting and the game does not launch, please note the command line option in the changes below to switch back to DirectX 11.
