#Vulkan and Dx12 not working
56 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
What operating system (presumably windows)? Is there anything in the log?
did you try dx11 (default option)
dx12 is notoriously unstable for some reason. I have no idea why
windows 11. How do I access the logs?
Try dx11 first (the default one)
yes it works but I am not getting the performance I was expecting
what are your specs, how many frames are you getting, how much of your computer resources are being used?
#❓faq
Do Vulkan and/or dx12 give you a performance boost?
from what it sounds like, they don't work at all 😅
oh they said after 5-10 min, my bad
Perhaps 300 fps for 5-10 min is better than 10 fps forever to them
quality over quantity
(They said their specs) (but not OS originally)
I'm one of those people who doesn't read anything huh
I dont really understand what I am supposed to see in the log files
I dont understand anything thats in ther
if you send it, the QA bot might help if it's active in this channel
Just post it here (if you're willing to share minor personal details like your windows username) and the bot will analyze it
really, errors are what we're looking for
and what fps are you getting + what resolution
so just the player.log file
yes
about 90-100 in 1440p
factory size ? (amount of buildings)
Oh damn this isn't a bug report
Those final lines do say what's wrong tho actually nvm idk if that's bad or not
should I just play on dx11 until it is fixed?
you should, but it's not clear why these options aren't working... which means it probably won't get fixed
Was this from right after a crash?
I don't see any bug reports open for this kind of thing, I think you should make one. it'll make it easier to diagnose
and if it's a duplicate then that'll help us find a fix
where can I find the exact game version name
At the edge of the screen in gray text. Lower right in the menu and I think lower left in game (they moved it around recently so maybe not)
More details about the nature of the black screen would be nice. Does the unity crash reporter pop up?
It freezes in the loading screen and just crashes with the windows pop up
hope it doesnt matter that it is in german
The dev team is primarily German speaking, but even i can tell that's the "not responding" pop up
Do you force it to close? Have you tried waiting?
no I havent tried waiting
im going to do that now
waiting doesnt change anything
still the black screen
A bug report for this would be massively appreciated
doing that rn
done
hi I am back again an the bug report was marked as a duplicate wich I believe is false and the /reopen-bug command doesnt even show up in the command list
is it just not there or am I just too stupid
@keen sundial pls help
I understand that it got marked as a duplicate since most vulkan issues are similar
If you really think it’s not a duplicate you could ping anth and explain to him and he might reopen it
why does my log file not have an error and the one from the duplicate does
