Multiplayer memory leak issue [ Fixed by PATCH 1.4 ]

Post » Thu Dec 30, 2010 11:24 pm

Just sayin this is small change compared to a vast majority of games out there that were bugged on release.


What you're really saying is: "Please raqe me. I love being raqed and will apologize for you when you do it to me hard from behind."

I had similar problem with the demo. Like the fps would drop from 80 avg to 20 avg. But with the full game the problem seems to have been sorted out for me. I very much hope they will fix it. And as far as I am aware I didn't change anything on my part. Maybe installed latest afterburner but that shouldn't have any effect - no new GPU drivers etc.

I had some spare time so I tried all versions of Nvidia drivers starting @ 260.66 ending in 270.51 and it happens with every driver strictly as in OP. Just thought I'd mention it here, it must be somewhere in multiplayer game code.

***FIXED***
I've just fixed it with "sys_maxFPS =60" instead of '120'.
Working on GTX460-GLH SLI & HDTV w/270.51
***FIXED***

It's a little strange because it was @120 before but with 60Hz true and it stays @60Hz when changing sys_maxFPS.

Possible explanation:
Seems that CE3 works at 120Hz even if the system tells him to display 60Hz...
*sys_maxFPS=120 may set step iterations to 8ms instead of 16ms;
*fresh graphic card runs fine for a few and then real framerate decreases because of heating;
*sys_maxFPS=60 may set step iterations to 16ms making 8ms for idle step (decreasing temp);

if this is correct, sys_maxFPS should be called sys_FPS !

It could be a possible cause of card burning.... CRYTEK, it's up to u !

Thank You.

However where did you change it if I may ask? Console? Config? Where do I have to change it? Sorry for noob question...

Not a noob question :-)

I've added sys_maxFPS in my autoexec.cfg (needed to be created under ../Crytek/Crysis 2/
Console capabilities are very poor at the moment, autoexec.cfg or system.cfg allows you more commands.

Thank you I've changed it in autoexec.cfg, from 120 to 60 as you stated. Then went for some action and I don't know if I was on very laggy server, or the game itself didn't fix this issue yet. :( I have 40mbit cable internet connection and single GTX470 w/266.58 drivers, those beta are not working as they should on Win XP. I however feel some progress being made by change of this setting. Hopefully Crytek will fix it themselves.

I have now reprocuded this, at first I thought my game was lagged because of laggy server but that is not the true. The command fixes nothing for me. It happens strictly as described in OP... I have no idea what else to do. :( Crytek, someone.. Help pls

The config is working both in SP and MP. For me it doesn't fix the memory leak issue in MP. I secretly thought the new WHQL driver from Nvidia would solve this issue but I was wrong. Now I am 100% sure it needs to be fixed in Crytek as it is only a problem of this game. PLEASE. I WANT TO PLAY THE FRIGGIN MP SO BAD. :( I payed for it for **** sake... 40€€€€

Strongly doubt this is an issue with the OS... Not to mention, I'd rather not spend 6 hours reinstalling something, especially if it isn't a guarantee fix.

We've had a response from the Crytek team saying they'll look into it... Wish there was something we could do to speed up the process.

I also doubt it's an OS issue, it happens only in this game in specific MP part of it so that is not much about OS imho...

You've made a good point about the devs seeing this thread, however there is going to be a patch next week and there is no single note about this issue in list of fixes nor in list of known issues or bugs. This drives me crazy...

Did some quick testing but had no time to play more than 3 games straight, however the problem seems to be fixed! I have finally got full MP experience without lags and played 3 games with same frame rate, something I have never experienced before. I will report when I will be done with some further testing.

So I played my first rounds with the new patch. my performance in skyline was terrible before the patch, now its quite smooth. So i think the patch gave me a small performance boost.

In combination with WHQL 270.61 driver from Nvidia and with the new patch the game runs smooth 7 rounds straight for me. Haven't tested more yet, but I don't expect it to be changed. Finally some fun after a month of waiting for me. =) Thanks for that, I do appreciate it.

ALL PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM TRY THE NEW PATCH AND WRITE HERE A REPORT. For me 1.4 worked.
