Ok, another update to this matter. I'm more and more sure that this is a graphics related memory leak issue. As I have stated before I use the /tex_memory_allowed to limit the max value of texture memory used. If a new texture is loaded and above limit, some other texture gets flushed out. This limit seems to be working…
Yes, as I have stated a little later, it is entirely possible that this isn't *THE* leak but just frees up enough space for the real leak not to reach the limit when it occurs (or to occur later in your case). There aren't that many options to play around with and the symptoms aren't well mesurable without a complete test…
Of course it is possible that the real problem is an entirely different one (like the limitation of the texture memory suddenly frees up space for something else that keeps growing), but for me it is a viable workaround for now. Second day now, it is still working fine. And maybe it helps locating the bug since one of the…
I had (until an hour ago) the same (or a similar?) issue as the OP, at least I had the same symptoms. The problem started with the new Ravenloft content patch and no released fix has changed a thing. After a short period of time, the game lagged and stalled terribly, I had to restart it. But I have just found something,…
The lags and freezes show all symptoms of a massive mem leak. In crowded environments like Protector's Enclave it slows down almost immediately until only a complete restart of the game helps. You also produced my very first bluescreen on Win7 btw. after using my PC for 6 years or so, congratulations. In the city it takes…
Same here. I played without any issue until the new patch got released, since then I'm almost unable to move around because of constant lags and freezes for many seconds. I could not even reach a map change anymore. This is unplayable at the moment.
With the patch I suddenly have massive performance issues up to the point that I cannot ride or walk through protector's enclave anymore. System freezes for seconds, then runs normal for a very short period, freezes again. Task manager is normal, not even close to maximum system usage. When it happened in the graveyard…
