When playing on Kashan (so far it has only been on this map) my game either crashes or freezes when flying jets or helis. When it freezes it also looks like some textures glitch out/disappear. This freeze can sometimes be solved by alt tabbing and going back, but sometimes it just crashes when I do that. Sometimes it just instantly crashes and gives the following message (but not always, sometimes crash without any message):



Seems it might be caused by textures not loading correctly or too slow when high up or going fast. Flying jets still works fine on Silent Eagle, Khamisiyah, Damascus, Falklands. So far I only have this issue on Kashan.

My graphics cards:
Intel Iris Xe Graphics
Intel Arc A730M Graphics

I have already tried the following:
- Downloaded the Dx9 DLL file from PR forums and replaced the one in Windows folder
- Reinstalled graphics drivers
- Downgraded my graphics drivers as far back as possible from Intel site (still a newer version than I had before updating)
- Set high performance in graphics settings for PRBF2.exe (although it still shows the Iris Xe card in the Support info from the launcher)
- Cleared shader cache

Thanks for reading and appreciate any advice.
(the crash log from support info differs per case, but it always seems dll files from windows folder)

Unfortunately, quality and stability of Intel drivers aren't quite there yet. That's why, in addition to updating drivers, it's better to bypass Intel's DX9 compatibility layer by using dxvk. It's not made specifically for Windows but it works on Windows as well.

Download the latest dxvk.tar.gz package from their GitHub releases page (v2.6.1 as of this writing). Keep extracting files from the archive until you have 32-bit d3d9.dll in your hands. Copy it to your PR install folder. It's the same folder where PRBF2.exe application is. Then create a text file named dxvk.conf and add this line into it

Code: Select all

d3d9.deviceLossOnFocusLoss = True

Save the dxvk.conf file in the same folder with d3d9.dll and PRBF2.exe. Make sure the file name extension is indeed .conf and not .conf.txt.
