PhysX3_x86.dll Crash

[chlywly 10]

Players drop in mass and it's 100% to do with heavy explosions, I know I've crashed a bunch of people by using heavy rounds in Marshalls on multiple occasions, and have seen the exact moment the crash occurs, when the shell hits and debree goes flying. Seems to do with Nvidia PhysX... This is pathetic, I can't play the game now.

BF4 doesn't do it for me. Please fix.

You are pretty much spot on except for the "no information"-part. They acknowledged the problem, said they can reproduce it reliably and are hoping to bring out a hotfix.

@Austin:

Yes, it is en mass.

Today 10+ people disconnected in fight situations repeatedly.

Our players were not able to figure out a specific reason.

Some players say:

“I crash when I hit the fire buttonâ€

"I crash when i see explosions"

Other players say:

“The problem causes without any reasonâ€

I think there is no specific reason, because they would say the same things if there would be a specific animation,action or formation.

Our Community discussed about this things. The players were not able to find a common ground. We were not sure, if the player saw the the objects or animations.

I just hope for the BIS and Nvidia Pro's in the BIS Dev Team. I trust the developers, the test teams

and the players who deliver logs @ http://feedback.arma3.com/ (which is the best action to accelerate a solution

We have finally found more useful debugging information for the main branch MP PhysX crash. We are still hoping to hotfix it once we have a confirmed fix.

Today's update may help, if and when it get's released... :)

[bvrettski 10]

From the dev log:

Unfortunately the patch also caused a multiplayer instability related to PhysX simulation. It has proven hard to debug since it involves external libraries. Our programmers have finally found useful debugging information, and once they have a confirmed fix, we hope to hotfix 1.02. Apologies to those not able to enjoy MP at the moment.

Potential fix for the dreaded MP PhysX crash - we’d like to confirm it so we can hotfix main branch :)

[Magebuss 10]

Good, lets see what it does

[soppa 1]

Everyone, hop in: arma3.olutta.org:2502 with dev branch.

=Olut= SISU

[AccaccuH 10]

how to get the dev branch?\

PS. never mind i already found. ignore this message

[iburnfurbies 10]

So was another patch released that broke the one from yesterday?

[jurrasstoil 10]

? The patch that is supposed to fix the physx crashes was released today to the dev branch.

The hotfix was released to main branch was released yesterday. It worried amazing on wasteland servers.

? No. No hotfix patch has been released for "main" branch.There was a update/patch on last Friday. Only two updates for "Dev" branch has been released in the last 24hrs or so. With the "fix" for crashing in the second patch. DEV patches are always happening to put more content and fixes in.

[jahk86 10]

Seriously now, how long is this hotfix going to take, the game is unplayable, the developers should not be going home until this is fixed, weve all paid money for software with a .dll that has a major bug, its laughable

[adenochome 10]

They just should bring it live because it couldnt be worse than now! A few people said already that they dont crash but the thing is there are only ~10 players on the dev servers and on wasteland. Wasteland is a joke. It needs a "real" server with many explosions and many people who firing bullets.

I agree with it couldn't be worse than it is now. However, if it weren't for wasteland / dayz in arama II, I wouldn't even know what the hell Arma / BI was. Hotfix your so called 'stable' version and let's give this thing a real test.

Sincerely,

A newborn Armaholic trying to play the game he spent $60 on.

day 6 of crashing. Can notice less and less players on the servers (wasteland). 2 more days and its dead

A rollback option to the original version (pre PhysX issues) would have been a plus too. Then we could have all sh!t canned the first patch and kept on having fun.

Day 7...! Please do something!! We are thirsty! We want blood!!
