Dead Island Rage Mode Crash Fix

Posted By admin On 17.08.21

Use the Left Hand of Glova to knock a Thug off its feet and follow up breaking an arm, but it would be recommendable to use your fists (or weak Brass Knuckles) to prevent quick death of the Thug. You will gain XP for every hit when target the top of his shoulder blade correctly. XP varies from player level and Thug. This pops up at the logs from windows: A problem with the virtual memory was found during the check. The following programs used the most virtual memory: FiveMGTAProcess.exe (2944) used bytes, FiveMChromeBrowser (8944) used 845172736 bytes, and FiveMChromeBrowser (2552) used 239218688 bytes.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is beautiful on PC — and it’s also a little unstable. Many players are reporting constant crashes on start-up. That’s an incredibly annoying problem, so here we’re going to explore all the different fixes the community has found so far. Scroll down to get the info you need.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is an extremely ambitious game on consoles — and now it’s the first RDR on PC. It’s absolutely stunning, and even some of the most powerful rigs around can’t run the game on full settings. Not that you need to crank everything up to Ultra for a mind-blowing experience. There’s even some new stuff to explore in the game, so we’ll be covering everything we can here on Gameranx.

Constant crashes should be patched on PC in the near future. If you’re not interested in waiting days (or weeks) for an official fix, here are some community solutions fans have discovered so far.

Quick Checklist Of Solutions

Here’s a few quick things you can do that might repair any installation issues.

Verify Files
Set RDR2.exe and Rockstar Launcher to launch as admin.
- Right-click the file and select ‘Run As Administrator‘
Download DirectX directly to the Installation folder.

If none of these help your issue, scroll down for more fixes.

Turn Off Antivirus

Some antivirus programs are blocking RDR2 when it launches. If you’re experiencing crashes at the opening logo, disable any antivirus programs and restart your computer.

Here’s a quick list of programs you’ll want to look out for.

Windows Defender
Avast
Emsisoft
Bitdefender
And more.

You can also add RDR2.exe to your Exceptions list in most Anti-Virus programs, or on your Firewall.

Download Nvidia Drivers

Updating your graphics card with the newest Nvidia Drivers is doing the trick for some players. You can find and download latest Nvidia Drivers here.

Update Your B.I.O.S.

[NOTE: This is a last resort solution. Try everything else out first!]

The BIOS is an integral part of your system, and for whatever reason, updating it seems to fix RDR2 crashes for some users. Updating your BIOS is different for every PC.

Updating your BIOS can also cause problems. Make sure you do not shut down your computer while the BIOS is updating, and make sure it is plugged in securely. Failing to update the BIOS mid-installation can practically ruin your computer.

A very weird new bug has been preventing players from jumping into Red Dead Redemption 2, causing a crash that forces you to close the program after loading into the game. Some players are only experiencing this bug once they reach Beecher’s Hope — so not until at least Act 2. It’s weird that such a game-breaking bug is popping up months after the game’s release, but at least there are a few ways to fix it now.

The error is related to Vulkan API — an alternative graphics API. If you’re using DirectX 12 you probably aren’t experiencing this issue. The easiest fix is to go to the settings and select DirectX 12. You can swap back later, but that’s the simplest fix. Below, I’ll cover more alternate solutions you can use if you want to continue using Vulkan API.

How To Fix ERR_GFX_STATE Crashes | PC Bug Guide

If your game is crashing with from fullscreen and displaying a ‘ERR_GFX_STATE‘ message, it is most likely caused by the Vulkan API. For whatever reason, this is a widespread bug, and there’s a few things you can do to fix it.

Switch From Vulkan To DirectX 12

In the graphics settings menu, switch to DirectX 12 instead of Vulkan rendering. It might not be compatible with your graphics card, so you may get more stuttering / slowdown during gameplay. If you want to continue using Vulkan, there’s more tricks you can try.

This crash seems to only occur when loading. Swap to DirectX 12, load your file, then swap back to Vulkan to continue using it.

Add A Launch Parameter

On Steam or through the launcher shortcut, right-click the title of the game and select ‘Properties‘ — under [Launch Parameters] type in the following:

-ignorepipelinecache

Exit and launch the game with Vulkan still running. This is Rockstar’s current (temporary) solution to the problem, and it is reported to work. But, there are more fixes you can try if it doesn’t.

Delete SGA Files

For this fix, you’ll need to navigate to the installation folder, accessing the [Settings] folder, and delete all files starting with ‘SGA’ in the title. That seems to fix whatever is causing these crashes.

Navigate here to find the [Settings] folder:

Go To: Documents/Rockstar Games/Red Dead Redemption 2/Settings
Delete all files starting with ‘SGA’
