turbodonkey Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Other thread on this is locked. So I'll ask in a new thread, how many RTX2080 users are having BSOD problems after a few mins in the game? Trying to determine if this is an nVidia or Wildcard problem, god help us if its the latter.

CptChandler Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I still have it. Troubleshooting now. Reinstalling windows etc etc. But why are all topics about this getting closed? Can we not talk about how Ark runs on different hardware now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mugger Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Abberation runs great that why I thought it was fixed . Any other map still gives me the BSOD i guess it’s a wait game now not much I can do to fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajah Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 yep, I have the same problem with RTX 2080.

RTX might as well be a doorstop. Ark was listed by Nvida as a release title supporting the new cards, but hey ho, Ark is nothing if not consistent. Nvidia are completely impotent with their support regarding this, getting nowhere, and no chance I'm even going to bother opening a support ticket to WC. Back to the old card.

CptChandler Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Same experience here. Got like 10 minuttes, then crash and bsod. But i can play other titles like shadow of the tomb raider and bf1. So this is Ark. I may just return my 2080 and get a 1080 ti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AYBFunkyMonkey Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I am having the exact same issue eVGA RTX 2080 i7 7700K 32 GB RAM ASRock z270 Pro4 I know the issue isn't related to overheating or Unreal Engine 4, as I ran Space Hulk: Deathwing on maximum graphics settings for a long time getting 150+ FPS with no issues.

Swordguy Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Just got my 2080 in yesterday, DDU'd old drivers, installed latest, similar problem. EVGA RTX 2080 XC Gaming Ryzen 1700x Corsair 1000i 16GB Mem Asus X370 Pro Game crashes after a random amount of time, and if I force close the game then the system hangs and reboots. Don't even get blue screen. Reinstalled ARK, tested different graphic settings, eventually sent Nvidia a detailed feedback to their driver support, and reinstalled my 1080ti while someone figures this out. Pretty bad too, considering the Unreal Engine 4 is heavily geared toward Nvidia, and the game (maybe it's my imagination) looks better on the 2080 somehow (maybe how thinks are rendered from a distance, not sure), even with same settings.

It certainly did look amazing for the 5-10 minutes I was able to run it. I turned all graphics settings to Epic and check all the boxes for high quality settings. Got about 50 FPS on scorched earth @1440p resolution. Tried turning all the gfx settings back to minimum to see if one of them was causing the crash but it didn't change. Also, I don't think this is specific to UE4, but to Ark, as other UE4 games I play have not had this issue at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I don't think this is specific to UE4, but to Ark, as other UE4 games I play have not had this issue at all. Maybe it's the sheer size of the gameworld in ARK? ARK does seem to do a lot of texture streaming between memory, storage and graphic card when you move about the map. I can reproduce the game crash and system hang usually by getting on a flying mount and flying around, or ever hopping on dino and walking around the map. Sometimes the crash happens 100 feet from base, sometimes I can reach other side of map. One thing I do notice is that at least half the crashes have occurred when turning around 180 degrees and moving in opposite direction, or being still and then moving quickly. I sent a bug report to both nvidia and SW, and mention that it's possibly a texture/asset streaming issue (which a UE4 game wouldn't necessarily need to do if the game world is smaller), but beyond that I can't think of what else would be causing the problem, because after swapping out with 1080ti everything's fine, knock on wood.

This is true for me also, I seem to stand a much higher chance of causing the crash if I move around quickly and use flying mounts etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may not have a RTX Card but, people are forgetting 1 thing about ARK's UE4 Engine. They started making the game while the engine was still in development, they then started modifying the engine to their needs and this resulted in being unable to upgrade to never version without breaking most of the game. This may also cause issues as it uses an older UE4 version which may not support all of the new stuff, don't rule out UE4 just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptChandler Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Yes Ark was created using a older build of UE4. But Ark was promoted by Nvidia to be 1 of the titles that was going to support the new Deep Learning Super-sampling (DLSS) in the RTX line. So not even being able to run Ark at all is somewhat dissapointing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
