Memory leaking from my braaaain

just sounds really strange
I tried running AO on my dell refurbished laptop, has a cpu that pretty much bogs to a halt if more than 3 chrome tabs are open.

I.. had single digit fps, but never crashed.
It does in fact sound like a driver issue, or a hardware issue.
other games may just not be using enough resources to trigger the crash?

it is EXTREMELY strange, cause no other program does this. ive stress tested it with proper testing programs and just playing other games, but i dont get these issues. like im dumbfounded that its only arcane odyssey, so am i atlas?? am i suffering a constant ~50 fps and random crashes so nobody else has to?? :sob::globe_showing_americas:

reminder, i paid more than three-thousand usd for my pc and made sure compatibility many times over. components are 100% new (cpu i scavenged from my past pc, but bought brand new) and as of right now, experience no other issues than this game. this game in particular gives me a fluctuating fps range THATS OFTEN ON THE LOW RANGE, and also the overloads that make roblox crash. also i already said it in this thread, but its NO other roblox game, NO other videogame, and NO other program.

if ur using insanity i think the insanity effects have a memory leak, i used to use em and crashed all the time, took them off and havent crashed since.

i mean, insanity could be a cause for some, but my crashes have been one of three categories so far:

  • particle crash, when hitting an object or being zoomed into one
  • crash with no determined cause, so like sitting around and crashing randomly
  • and damage (?) crashes, when getting damaged by anything, this im unsure of cause half could be a particle crashes BUT one time i crashed cause of fall damage lol

guess chaos is invading the mind of the computer as well

for some reason, if your camera is very close to maybe something like blast spell (as example) explosion upon impact and same applied when your character fall into lake or ocean at high speed, it cause your fps to stutter
I believe the cause could be spike in vram usage due to visual effects is mainly handled by GPU (Could be your GPU having low Vram)

low vram? i got 12gb lol
still tho, ur prolly right, but honestly i dont get how literally awful my preformance is IN ONLY ARCANE ODYSSEY. i will say it over and over again :sob:

No, drawing particles on top of each other is just very bad for performance, and AO likes to spam said particles.

I have 10gb of VRAM, and I go down to 20 FPS wen seeing some of these stacked particles.

Yea ur right i think, i didn’t take more things into accounts

Oh, I thought I was the only one experiencing this.

At any random moment I could cast a spell or just simply use a dodge reflex and the game just gets on 0 FPS and crashes

This happens ONLY in Arcane odyssey, and take note that I have 32 GB RAM (I dont recall actually, somewhere around that) and generally my PC is strong enough to handle Starcraft II full graphics without much lagging

EXACTLY! literally its only AO! genuinely think im going insane but im glad to hear im not alone (even though that implies the suffering of people who haven spoken up :sob:)
