Arma 3 crashing short amount of time after loading into MP server.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Already created a discussion on Arma 3 troubleshooting forum on steam. I am going to summarise what happens when I play MP on Arma.

  • I load onto my usual roleplay server, which is Armaliferp (ALRP), and get in like normal, with no problems.
  • After around 5-10 minutes, my game freezes/crashes, and my teamspeak and task force radio also crashes with it.
  • I reset my Arma, it happens again and again, so then I try alternatives such as verifying game integrity, or even restarting PC, but as usual, the problem still persists.
  • I try and look for solutions to this problem, and it just goes around in a loop, I've tried all the solutions, even including the ones specifically given to me by the bug report.

I've tried every way to fix this problem, but nothing works, it's getting to a point, that it's ruining my whole enjoyment on this server, and ultimately ruining Arma 3 itself for me, I'm just fed up of it.

The error code that seems to arise everytime is 0x00000001 – UNABLE_TO_INIT_DXGI, which from my knowledge is a GPU related problem, which worries me a little because my GPU is a very costly GTX 1060 that is only 3 months old, which surely can't be the problem. I've read up about this code, and tried everything that it says to do to fix it, but nothing works.

I think it is more to do with my CPU, as it is an AMD FX8350, which doesn't hold the best framerates in-game, which stumps me, because the error code is about a brand new GPU.

No matter what the problem is related to, this should not happen to me, I've gone through alot of problems with Arma 3 in the past, and I don't want even more to linger there and ruin my experience even more.

I have also linked the specific crash report/dump files with this ticket, incase anyone who helps needs more information to try and solve it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you.

Steps To Reproduce

The way I can easily reproduce this problem is literally just go ingame, and wait patiently for the crash to occur.

Additional Information

I do not know much about these crash/dump files, so I can only upload the whole .zip, sorry if you encounter any problems looking through these, I will try to help as much as possible.

Also, I really don't know anything about this website, it won't let me upload my .zip, so I will post a link to download the .zip from MediaFire.

Event Timeline

This bug can also happen at any time now, meaning it will crash at any random moment, if not crashing upon spawning, within the time playing on the server.

@BobbyWolf, your launch parameters look a bit wonky. Could you reset the parameters to their default state and try again? This includes trying to play without any mods.

Okay, thanks for the advice, much appreciated, will try this asap, and get back to you on it :)

thing is, I've checked it, and no parameters are even coming up, how are they there?

doesn't matter, found them, will remove them now.

Hi,

as Jawsh said. Try to unload all parameters and unplug cpuCount it´s possible that that collapse occuring via this problem. Second, there should be some problem with your mods as report said to me.

Thanks for your report.
