Crashing still occuring post update

[Smedbox]

Also, does anyone know if there's debug setting to run Rift in single-threaded mode? Perhaps it's using multiple threads and there is a race condition somewhere that only occurs on some machines and with the timing difference of IS running.

It could also be a memory leak (GPU or CPU) that causes the machine to run Out Of Memory and crash. Check your CPU memory usage in Task Manager. Not sure how to check GPU memory usage without a GPU tool like PerfHUD or something, and I'm not sure that's system-wide anyway...

According to the Error logs I have the error is an access violation error.
Not sure at all what or why is causing it.

I am loading up Wireshark now and see if I can get anything from the ErrorHandler.

Yeah, an access violation error means a bad pointer - it could be 0 (or a small offset from 0) which could indicate Out Of Memory. If the accessed address is a large number, it's probably not Out Of Memory.

Same crash with rifterrorhandler.exe closed. Ran 16.5 minutes from the time I clicked Play before they started crashing.

I got nothing from the Packet Sniffer, which admittedly is not my strength.
I also tried forcing the game into Dx9 mode by adding the -dx9 parameter.

Still crashes.

Hmm, are you guys using any addons?

[Norrin]

No addon's at all here.

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Same here, just the base game.

I don't think it is hardware specific.

Last week I was happily boxing using ISBoxer on 2 subscribed and accounts 3 trial accounts, after the latest Rift patch, my 2 subscribed accounts kept crashing after 15 mins but the trial accounts were fine.

My trials ran out so I upgraded them to subscribed accounts and now all 5 accounts crash within 60 seconds of each other after about 15 mins.

So i'm confused why my trial accounts were fine until I upgraded them. I made no hardware or driver changes, I just upgraded my accounts.

I have also found out that if around 13 or 14 mins you log out to the character select screen and then log straight back in again on all of your accounts then this seems to reset some sort of timer within rift and you are fine for another 13 or 14 mins, it's a pain but it's not as bad as all of your clients crashing.

I tried something this morning. 1st using ISBoxer with my 2 accounts and it did crash 13-15 mins in. I then tried the 2 accounts without ISBoxer and no crash. But then again I couldn't play it in proper boxing fashion.
