Direct3D 12 – Feedback, Known Issues, and FAQ

correct, if somebody wants to check, open beamng log file and check lines starting with gfx.defaultApi

 

For the people wanting to report issues but do not meet the min requirements please refrain from posting and stay on DX11 and/or vulkan:

The minimum requirements include:

• OS: Windows 10 64-bit.
• Memory: 16 GB RAM.
• GPU memory: At least 6 GB of VRAM.
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 570, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, or better.
• Driver: A current driver with Direct3D 12 support.

Careful, your entitlement is showing. So we are saying a 3050ti is outdated, and not able to run something that previously had no issues running. This 3050ti runs Warframe (uses DX12) with not issues with maxed graphics........

its... 2 different games?

look, im not satisfied with not being able to use DX12 after anticipating it for so long, but i will say one thing: my 4050 constantly runs low on VRAM with most things. FH6, GTA5, and now BeamNG. when hotfixless, i constantly ran into Texture Streaming failing to do its job. the real issue is clear: Nvidia absolutely starved the RTX xx50 series when it came to VRAM. the devs could be working on a way to lower VRAM usage, but for now, its best to have a fallback so it runs somewhat smoothly

 

VRAM requirements doesn't change depending on model type, 4gb vram is too low, end of story.

to flip the coin, i would love to play MSFS2024 on high but i just accept it won't run ok on my r5 3600, i accept and wait to upgrade instead of bashing MSFS2024, or running starlight mini (topaz ai) on my 2070s is also a no go, i knew it, i tried it, failed and moved on.

EDIT: to provide a more on-topic response, start by lowering res to 1080p or 720p instead of 1440p and try again, if you post screenshot of the perf graph maybe i (we) can steer you in the right direction to potentially solve issues.

 

Is it supported or even possible on windows 10?


edit: im blind

literally unreadable

 

saw that and felt like an idiot after i posted that lol

 

This is on DX11 mind you



So pardon me on being a bit confused as to why we are saying 4gb of Vram isn't enough, when it has been..... as someone who has played Beamng/BeamMP/CaRP for 2 years now. This thread was to bring up/point out things to hopefully iron out... so, yes I am going to post...

 

like i said: i ran into Texture Streaming issues due to running out of VRAM. with 2 extra gigs compared to yours..
according to the Steam hardware survey, the 3 most popular cards are the 4060 (and its mobile variant), and the 3060. all of which have 8 GB's of VRAM.
the devs probably took this into account when adding the DX12 restriction.

also, 4GB's of VRAM is just poor nowadays. might have been acceptable in 2021, but yeah, its not good nowadays (hell, i can't enable RT in several games without running out)

 

Hi! The new 0.39.1 update changes the game mode to DX11 if your vram is below 6gb right? Because my vram reads 5994 MB, my game is forced to run on DX11. DX11 actually ran half the fps than DX12 on my device (with traffic). I had to add a command in steam to force my game to DX12. I personally have no problem with DX12 and hadn't experienced any issues with it. I'm sorry but can you change the minimum reading to like 5,5 gigs so that people with 6gb of vram won't experience this issue? Thanks!


Edit:
I use the Zephyrus M16 2022 with an i9 12900h and an RTX 3060 6GB

 

What command did you use? im having the same issue as its forcing dx11, another issue im having is textures loading incorrectly (eg; looks like ps1 graphics, only on dx12)

 

Add this in your launch options: -gfx d3d12

 

I hate to be the complainer since I like this update, but is there a way to fix the optimization problems?

 

Oh wow that was quick.. Thanks bro! Wish you the very best of life!

 

Heres what my game looks like currently, some help would be appreciated

 

Check your vram usage. If it's near the limit or at the limit lower your texture quality and / or shadow resolution

 

Sorry to interrupt anything but my game still looks like this on D3D12 with an 8GB VRAM Intel Arc A750 Challenger D, well the car at least looks the same as the first 0.39 release. EDIT: In the BeamNG console there are multiple "Texture allocation failed", "Failed to create anonymous texture", and "Failed to create texture" errors. I don't know if that has anything to do with this, I have also updated my drivers and cleared the cache and launched in safe mode, and this is specifically a D3D12 issue.

 

For me, crash and crash again

 

Minor, but lights at hot rolled inc dont emit anything.
