Forza Motorsport and 7900 XTX driver timeout (likely other AMD too)

[faye]

The Alan Wake 2 beta driver seems to have improved stability (so long as performance target is kept on auto) at the expense of performance. It runs better when set to unlimited, but then crashes on every race rewards screen as before.

had to register here to just reply and give my 2 cents, I have exactly the same issues, latest Adrenaline driver, latest FMS Patch and still unplayable, sometimes it just freezes after 1s of being loaded into a race sometimes after the race, most times it's during a race not later than 2 min...

sometimes I can play 2 multiplayer races, then it will crash after that...

running R9 5900X + 7900 XTX (Gigabyte), and 64GB ram... this is the only game that crashes on me, don't have such issue with any other games.

the performance is also not amazing, at 4K @ 60fps Vsync it can hold 60fps during career races but multiplayer it does drop to 45-50 for 5-10s a time... if it doesn't crash... I'm so tempted to give up on it, but I just like it too much... just fix it...

I am level 41 not had a single issue with mine at all. I DO know that people are having legit issue(I am a beta tester and know it's happening to fellow testers)The only thing I know from my experience vs the bad one is Win 11 so I cannot do any repro testing being on Win 10. I mean other than the tracks all seeming to have one corner that tanks the FPS and using my wheel all I get is keyboard prompts. The patch stopped my only "issue" which was the shader caching every start...
Edit l will just add a Bench shot so you can see my settings easily

23.11.1 seems to have mostly taken care of this for me, but the game still runs worse than it should on my system when compared with everything else. I haven't spent a lot of time with it recently though, may do so over the weekend and report back.

Try turning off Vsync. If you have it use Freesync.

yeah, been there done that... on or off it still crashes ! sometimes feels like it crashes more on certain cars, especially Porsches ! now I played 3 races with no issues with the Honda S2000, changed over to the 911 2018 RSR and it crashed 2x within seconds on getting on track ! grinds my gears...

tried Vsync on/off, 4K, 1440p, 1080p, different Monitors... same same ! ‍

Have you OCed your card or is it running stock?
My issue with crash at rewards screen and always compiling shaders were fixed with 23.11.1.

Half right. The game can and does cause very high clock spikes that can cause crashes but I don't think that would relate to the rewards screen issue. The Shader compile was fixed in the latest game patch.

Rewards screen crash was fixed for me with the latest driver. Shader compile as well.
I asked if he OCed his card because Radeons are picky with OC. It can be stable in most of games and pass all 3dmark stress testing but then it will crash on one game. Worth a try to run it on stock, but question is if he even OCed his card. It can still happen at rewards screen as it is rendering a car, and random nature of the crashes suggest different issue than the one that was fixed with the update and drivers.

nope, did not touch anything, only BIOS mod I have is to switch off the on board Audio and use my M-Audio 2x2 deck...

and yes, the Shader compile and the rewards screen issue was indeed fixed with the last Adrenaline driver update.

I can say that everything everyone is saying about FM8 is true. This Game is fun and the Multiplayer is pure Arcade so that means it is fun. The Game works fine with over 100 FPS on most tracks. The tracks they create themselves seem to run the smoothest. The reality though is that the Game has many bugs. I am so glad I only got this on Gamepass. When the Game is fully released I will buy the full version but it seems that they have corrected most of the issues with the latest up]date. I have not had a crash in about a week (Had to build shaders though) and I do the Single player and Multiplayer. In Multiplayer the Game is like DTM but the physics are on point. There are some unfair aspects as well though. I really wanted to drive the Cadillac LMDH so I bought one but now I don't have enough credits to do my next Single Player mission. They should be gifting me a car to drive in every series instead of having to buy one every time. There are also not enough Prototype races like LMP3, LMP2 or LMDH and 3 Hypercars is BS.
