NebulaePC 1 Posted March 19, 2013 I can get into and play a multiplayer game for a short while but it always ends up freezing within 20 minutes or less. According to the event viewer it is the physx3_x86.dll that is causing the problem. I am running two 5770's in crossfire with the 12.8 drivers(these seem to be the last drivers that work well with these cardsthough correct me if I am wrong). Currently this sim is unplayable for me due to this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harold5187 10 Posted April 22, 2013 I'm not even using Nvidia on this computer! I'm running an ATI 5800 series on an AMD Phenom 2 with 4 processors and 12 gigs of ram! I don't understand why this file is causing my game to crash so much, when, as I say, I don't even use Nvidia products? It's either this file causing frequent crash to desktops, or its a fault with DirectX, or just as worse a fault in their "alpha" stage memory managers in the .dll folder. I would recommend you implement a system that uploads the .rpt file of those whose games crash while playing Arma 3, because I've never had these problems with other games. I can get a satisfying gaming session in with X3 Terran Conflict and even Albion Prelude, which is far more demanding than this game. I hope this is not a problem that just gets talked about alot, when ending up in some file cabinet of issues not solved since Operation Flashpoint. And speaking of issues, lets talk about how worthless the new stances are, with too many more keys assigned to learn them. When I go into map mode I come out, and I'm laying in some crazy stance in the prone position. I would like to stay in the position I select when I go into map mode, and not have the computer decide to put me into another stance, which will ultimately get me killed. Less pretty flowery features, and more fixing the problems that were not addressed in previous versions. Please debug your own report files, because I know you devs play your own game as well, why ignore your own rpt files, and ask for more information when we report our problems to you! You guys are going to lose a lot of loyal fans if you don't start listening to the people who have made you what you are through our loyalty over the years. We don't want another Battlefield 3 game, and we don't want to cater to those people as well, keep Arma as its' been, but refine it, and fix the bugs, and most of all play and read the rpt files, because that's your greatest source of bug fixes when you guys get bored, or run out of coffee!

Steakslim 1 Posted June 27, 2013 Yeah beta drivers still have the crash. It's just random enough to give you false hope though lol. Night before I played for a bit without any crashes, however tonight it only took about 10 min to crash the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GranolaBar 10 Posted June 27, 2013 crashing for me mate :-(i might have to reinstall my Windows? NO !!! don't reinstall. If i can play all the game without crash with physx, it's not normal than i crash only on Arma : ) Actually, Physx is not fully implemented in the game and as DNA say, they work with Nvidia to optimizing the game and correcting crash or other. If someone have nvidia card and have no crash, i would want a answer of what OS, what Nvidia graphic card he used :) but actually, nobody who have no problem answered to this topic to help us. The only thing we can, it's to update this topic after each update to inform if that crash is already here or not. Maybe a day before the release, a guy among us, would be don't have this problem :) G.B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GranolaBar 10 Posted June 27, 2013 No crash with new update : But i use Physx on CPU (right click on desktop, use Physx to CPU only) Tommorow i come again to say it's that solved or not a little the problem... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure what you mean entirely. but it seems if I have physx processor to any of my gpu's I then get the dll related crashe. when I set it to CPU I no longer experience the crash at all.
