F1 2019 DX12 crashing?

[lhutchy]

Is any one else having issues with DX12 crashing? Works fine in DX11 with a few game stutters (not as bad as 2018 had) it happens at random times in the menus.

Have any body found a fix?

hi guys can I ask.. what is the difference between DX11 and DX12? Performance?

Finished the Australian GP last night and game crashed loading in to the end cut scenes. Not sure I feel like doing a full GP distance again when I already finished it once. I hope Codies can find and fix the causes of the game crashes as mine has crashed frequently so far and with no particular rhythm or rhyme to it.

Had the exact same thing with a 25% race just now

Turned off Steam Overlay and I was able to start the game in DirectX 12, finally.

Turned off steam overlay but game fails to start in DX12.. any other ideas what could be causing this issue?

The Steam overlay issue appears to be a something with the Nvidia driver, what GFX card are you running and what driver. It may be something else that is causing the problem.

There is a patch out today that may solve it?

Anyone with a GTX 1050Ti that can confirm patch v1.04 has working DX12?

The 1.04 patch didn't fix the problem but I was able to solve it in the end. I rolled back to the previous version of nVidia driver (430.64) and that did the trick! I'm running a EVGA GTX1080Ti FTW3.

New Nvidia driver is running fine for me with DX12 and Steam overlay enabled.

It is July 18, 2019 a couple of days after Patch 1.05. The game crashed after 48 minutes of practice and qualifying on an on-line league...while transitioning to the start. By the time I could restart the game, I could not get back into my league race for this week(Tuesday). Yesterday, 64 minutes into Friday Practice 1 on my first career race of the season, after achieving purple in 5 of the development programs, the game crashes and I lose all of my progress. I have had the digital version of Codemasters F1 games since 2013(except '15, I knew it would be a waste of time after '14). This is the only version that has ever crashed. Ever! It crashes at least everyday. Right now I have steam overlay turned off and can verify that the crashes are happening during streaming(twitch,Fb,YT) using GeForce Experience. A remedy would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Update your drivers and don't alt-tab when the game is loading. I've gotten zero crashes since the patch.

Disable steam overlay

Right click on F1 2019 in your library, select properties and uncheck steam overlay.

Did you set the motion blur to false in the hardwareconfig.xml by any chance? I changed that, did the first 2 career mode races and got to China, did practice and quali and then it kept crashing on the cutscene before the race. The only thing that fixed it, was setting motion blur in the config to true.
