v1.7.1 Ascheberg ctd

[pesta38]

Description:

After going from another map to Ascheberg, parts of the map are glitched and moving in viewing distance of those parts will freeze frame, then crash the game. After some testing the crash only occurs if the previous map was 2km or bigger, 1km map only goes as far as to freeze frame, which can be "fixed" by alt-tabing. During the frame freeze the game can still be interacted with and the cursor will still show up when it should.


Steps to Reproduce:

Load any map 2km or bigger, then load Ascheberg (only tested on AAS std but i remeber encountering this on lrg aswell) and move in view distance of a glitched part (usually the area surrounding the first cappable flag.)


Screenshots / Video:

These have been taken after a 1km map, same thing occurs after bigger maps followed by a CTD:

Ascheberg AAS standard, local server, HOG clan server, 3 sevens (U-777) server

Have you had this issue on any other map?

Great report!

I was thinking of making a post as well but this probably is more informative.
Just thought I add to this anyway I have played it twice now and both times multiple people in my squad crashed out of this specific map more than once. While they normally don't as far as I have experienced. Not saying I know for a fact the map is the issue but I certainly have the strong suspicion that is the case.

I crashed both times while loading this map after playing another map with a memory.dll error, then loads fine after restarting the game and rejoining the server.

In the 4 years of me playing this game this is the first time I encountered this issue and it only occurs on this map. I managed to get some performance logs and a crash dump since making the post: very long google drive link

I'll also add the link to the original post for ease of access.

Thanks for the dump. Did that crash happen when you were creating a screenshot?

Yes, unfortunately I only managed to get as far as the frame freeze today but during that a screenshot triggers the crash. Will try again later today to get a crashdump without the screenshot.

3/3 times I have loaded this map after playing another map I have crashed with memory.dll allocation CTD.

Even when you do it on empty server or playing local?

Haven't tried that yet.

I crashed to desktop in the middle of the round on this map yesterday as well.

Never have any issues on any other map, it seems to really like to eat up all the 4GB of RAM that PR can allocate and then crash.
