LE1 final boss crash #43

Open mechcentric opened 3 years ago

mechcentric commented 3 years ago

bug either crashes during combat with saren-corpse/sovereign or during mid-battle cutscene, with some dependencies. managed to work around bug by setting executable priority to high in windows task manager, and launching from me3tweaks mod manager instead of official LE launcher.

based on personal research, bug arises from use of shift key menu during combat, as well as use of biotic powers. (personal suspicions: this issue may be more prevalent on insanity difficulty setting, and/or is related to geth spawning waves.)

from original trilogy; relating to saren paragon-suicide: https://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/topic/171220-final-boss-fight-freeze-solved/

ideally, a bug fix would involve no crashes during combat or cutscene without needing to touch task manager or use alternate launcher.

"Other Considerations Have you considered if this feature was intended by BioWare? Is this instead a QoL feature, or a potential new mod idea? Would fixing this bug severely change a part of the game experience?"

pretty sure this is not a feature

Screenshots & Saves

do not believe this to be save related, nor can i elaborate this issue effectively with screenshots

"Game file If possible, do you know which game file this bug is located in?"

...executable?

I am currently unable to reproduce this crash on my machine. It appears to be a physics bug with Biotic powers at framerates higher than 120 FPS, but more investigation is needed.

high framerate contributing makes sense, as it seems my gameplay doesn't dip below that outside of the mako

It's not hard to limit framerate with rivatuner or whatnot.
