Sniper Elite 4 DX12 has stopped working

[Steevo]

Anyone else having this issue, the Steam forums show some and an issue with launching the game. I will try DX11. 17.6.2 Driver, even lowered already known stable overclocks and turned down settings, but even with everything on High or Ultra I'm still getting between 70-90FPS. Seems to happen most when I zoom in, which... given the game type and name.....


How many play hours before it becomes non-refundable on Steam?


**Edit, it works fine in DX11 with all the pretties turned on and up and at full speed, must just be a shitty implementation of DX12**

Another DX12 victim. I've not used DX12 in games since I switched to W10. No point for me on Nvidia anyway but there are so many poor or flawed implementations of it.

Steam refunds up to 2 hours play time and within 14 days of purchase.

Many? Aren't you a bit exaggerating?

GCN 1.0 may have problems DX12. It is a bit old and the async thing did not work well on Tahiti it lacks HW really(I am an ex 7970 user too). Keep in mind that.

I actually tried the game out today 1st time in dx12. It closed off itself after 20 ish minutes.

DX12 is more difficult to work with from my understanding. Combine that with short development cycles and programmers not used to this API and you get this. Quantum Brake was essentially a broken nonfunctional game on DX12. The situation is what it is.

I wish developers would stop pushing for DX12 just for the sake of doing it , Rottr and BF1 run worse on DX12.

Doubt anything is going to get fixed , for now stick with DX11.

Strange that DX12 doesn't work and yet its almost the same exact implementation they have in Xbox code to attain higher performance. But DX11 works fine and with everything but AA cranked up to ultra framerates are solid.

old card is old
and there is nothing wrong with nvidia DX12 implementation there cards DO NOT NEED OR benefit from having ASYNC

Been playing SE4 on my 7970 too, and as expected, it hasn't enough ACE units to handle Dx12 well, especially poorly implemented Dx12. I really don't get why more devs don't just use Vulkan instead.

That said, SE4 is certainly better in gameplay and performance than Sniper Ghost Warrior 3.

will try and test now

edit: not a single problem with DX12

Then again, with a 1080 Ti, who would expect any?

Mmm, I thought it was driver or game related. I tested for the community without second thoughts!

Thanks for the effort, we need more colorblind help on the forum.

Could this be an issue due to your phenom II CPU?

We've seen a bunch of games recently that require the latest versions of SSE (was it 4.1 the pII's lacked?) causing games to crash in various scenes/videos/levels, perhaps they used those extensions in their DX12 coding?

july 2018, gtx 1080 8gb with the latest whql driver, dx12 still crash at launch, but dx11 is working perfect... why this happen.... ?? how to fix this bug ??
