Texture Streaming in Echoes of the Atlas

Any chance you are fixing the constant crashes so we can play the game again? Or should we all start streaming?

So, my 2 cents:

I played a lot of leagues before without issue. In heist I updated my PC so I was then able to increase the Graphic settings a bit (lets say to medium settings) and still everything worked fine. A day before this league started I played around in standard sorting stashes and clearing characters (sometimes going to kill mobs to remind me how they worked), still fine.

Then this league hit. At first I had some troubles but I thought they were related to the unexpectedly large amounts of people that joined POE, so I let them slide.

Reaching LVL 50 things started to become more problematic. More mobs and more skills flying around made things load more slowly, to the point I was forced to set every Graphic setting to the minimum, which seemed to help somewhat.

Now I'm LVL 90 and it's basically unplayable. I'm being affected by invisible ground effects or hit by invisible monsters. My inventory takes sometimes near 15 second to load the images, and this happens every time I exit a map or heist (for example). This is even worse in towns (and now in Rogue Harbour being public) due to all the MTX.

Also, since the 3.13.1 Patch textures seem to take even longer to load than before.

As for the crashes I had a few, but they were sparse.

My specs are W10 x64, i3-10100, 16GB RAM, GTX 1650 SUPER, HDD; however, once again, the day before this league hit everything worked great.

Hope you can somehow fix this so I (and the other people in this thread) can go back to enjoy what is otherwise a good league.

Its clearly cause of our weaker systems.

TL/DR: PoE now require not only 16 threads CPU but also resizable bar support, and at least 3600Mhz memory and Samsung 980 PRO series SSD.

any update on the constant game crashes? literally can't play the game since the patch cuz i crash every 2 minutes of mapping

This pretty much. It is driving me nuts.

And about memory leak?

Yeah so they said this texture streaming would help weaker systems. I've been running fine prior to this non-optional 'feature'.

Game runs pretty stable but when I fight a pack of monsters my CPU usage spikes and fps goes roller coaster mode.

I use a i7 2600K with 8 threads so I guess im fucked until they either update this current implementation or make it optional. SAD

Will poe 2 have same engine game uses currently ?

Sorry to disappoint you, but its a 100%...

Guys, learn what a game engine is. Writing a new engine will not solve anything. Updating and rewriting parts of the existing engine makes much more sense. The problem is implementation of new features. New features lack proper testing and bug fixing before they are published.

dude. come out from rock.. new engine sloves EVERYTHING. where are you been living lmao

this is ridiculous,since the last patch i can no longer do the
pop in events in maps like legion,harbingers...
the screen just becomes a low-res 10fps blob of shit!
