Hard crashing PC locks up
I'm curious how everyone else's crashes have been. It seems my PC has stopped locking up but every few maps, shortly after entering the map the game will just go straight to desktop. I have been monitoring my cpu and gpu and both of them are remaining at a very stable temperature alongside their usage. My only assumption is that it is related to shaders. The crashes definitely happen significantly less for me when using Vulkan but that still doesn't prevent them entirely.
I could be superstitious but it seems that upon entering a map, if I sit in front of the portal and don't touch anything that it seems to stop the game from crashing more often than not. It almost feels like I'm loading too quickly into the map. Last edited by RealMarsbar#1169 on Dec 17, 2024, 10:45:00 PM

I was having hard lockups all the time when I first started playing the game and had to reset pc.
One of the patches fixed it for the last 4 days with zero lock ups but after todays big patch its been hard locking me on loading screens again. Can you guys please fix this issue its so annoying. |

I just installed Windows 23H2 a couple of hours ago, just tried Path of Exile 2, instant crash when clicking Login into server selection... this is beyond absurd at this point.

For those who are having the issue where your PC hard freezes during loading screens, either this tool or the manual workaround (setting the process affinity of PoE) might help: https://github.com/Kapps/PoEUncrasher/

Same issue as all before: Crash on loading screen. Significantly worse after latest patch. Even have disabled 2 cores with Lasso. Get this fixed damnit! What else am I supposed to be doing over the holidays?

Sad to say the latest patch did not resolve this. I have had good luck with the affinity trick where you set the CPU 0 and CPU 1 to unchecked while the game is booting up. This at least lets you close the game when it hangs which today was at min 4 times before I could get in and play. If I wasn't having so much fun I would have already uninstalled.

I have a AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-Core Processor. I had some issues where I had immense CPU spikes on some areas when checking the Perfgraph in PoE So my friend suggested a reddit post to fix CPU stuttering by unlocking parked CPU cores. Check out post called "How I fixed CPU stuttering on latest patch" Note this is for PoE1, but it works for PoE2 as well. Note, it is somewhat easy to follow for some tech savvy people.

Alright...
I completely uninstalled the game and deleted the leftover POE2 folders in the Steamapps directory and the My Documents/My Games directory. All traces of PoE2 were gone. I then did a clean reinstall of the latest Nvidia drivers. Then I reinstalled POE2 this evening, with the most recent patch in included. I then went into the Windows System > Display > Graphics > Default Graphics Settings and turned OFF "Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling". I then rebooted the PC to confirm turning that off and just giving my system a clean boot with everything installed. I then booted up Steam, turned off all the CPU limiting stuff I had on and ran the game at "stock" settings with all 16 CPU cores active for POE2. No Lasso or anything else running. The game actually launched. Been playing for an hour, intentionally zone-hopping, tabbing in and out of the game to web browser and checking my system temps and whatnot. I was trying to make the game crash by going into random zones and killing some things and jumping into other zone and towns. So far, no problems. And this is after I couldn't even get past the load screen earlier today. If I crash, I'll let you know. EDIT: I'm looking at the POE2 Client.txt log from last gaming session since reinstalling everything and I don't have any more of the collision errors, nor any texture load errors. Those were what lead into all my PC crashes previously.

" Can you please try launching the game and logging into a character a few times without restarting your PC? I've noticed I crash consistently if I load up the game multiple times without restarting my PC. Or if I enter a load screen after the PC was sleeping.

I have no issues, but maybe that's because I limited my CPU performance to 99% a long time ago.
I don't know if it's possible in Windows 11, but in Windows 10 you can do this: Open Control Panel: Press Win + S to open the search bar. Type Control Panel and press Enter. Navigate to Power Options: In the Control Panel, select Hardware and Sound. Click on Power Options. Next to your active power plan, click Change plan settings. Open Advanced Power Settings: Click Change advanced power settings. Adjust Processor Power Management: In the Advanced settings window, scroll down and expand Processor power management. Expand Maximum processor state. Set the value for On battery and Plugged in to 99%. Apply Changes: Click Apply and then OK to save your changes.
