[227i] [D3D11Drv.4] HARD LOCKUP with non-UTXed HD textures combined with LH's Unreal HD mutator

Post by Victor Delacroix »

No map will ever load with that combination. I'll retry later with textures packed into UTXes and another renderer but that combo as described in the topic title leads to a hard lockup and I had to initiate logout to force-close Unreal.

Hi,

The combination you list is the most demanding on resources, although I run the game like that myself. The non-UTX HD textures (HD4k Extreme Resolution V3 for the DirectX11 Renderer)
https://sites.google.com/view/unrealhdt ... d-textures
are very demanding on the video card and don't run well on an older video card. This may not be your problem however. Definitely try the UTX version HD textures and a different renderer to see what the result is.

Here are a few things I would try for D3D11 + external HD textures + UnrealHD 3.1 skins mutator

-Use the original utx textures along with external HD textures, otherwise if you you use HD utx with HD external you are replacing one set of HD textures with another. Performance is worse.

-Try deleting (back it up) your unreal.ini and use a fresh one

-Try playing with precache on or off in the DX11 renderer or turn off some of the demanding features

-Try re-applying the unreal 227i patch

-Try the lower-res version of the HD skins mutator

-Try a fresh install of unreal as a last resort

I am not sure this is a 227 bug. Does it also do this on unreal gold (226b)?

The only time I ever got lockups like this with the external textures was when I patched a fairly bloated install of UT99 to 469a. Never seen it happen in Unreal. A fresh install fixed it. Could be with the renderer plus who knows what combination of mods and tweaks.

D3D9, HD textures UTXed and this mutator: ANOTHER hard lockup. I'll try low quality edition and report back.

LQ edition also caused a hard lock. Tough luck. No Lightning Hunter mutator for me.
