PoE 1 NVIDIA crash, just like PoE 2

Greetings!

Some time ago I checked an interview with your senior graphic programmer, Alexander Sannikov, and he mentioned that there is a major crash in PoE 2, that only happens on NVIDIA GPUs and at the time of the interview it still wasn't fixed.

Seems like something similar now happens with PoE 1 as well. The only setting I've changed was to enable NVIDIA DLSS, but all other settings were not changed compared to the previous league, and there were no such crashes in previous league. Game just freezes, then it loads and restarts in the same place.

try switching to dx12. I tried around back and forth, only thing that helped for the freezes/crashes is switching ingame to dx12.

I think I have the same issue. Game freezes and then goes black before rerendering everything. I usually pause the game when it happens and then it rarely crashes. Map reveal is lost as well which to me strongly suggests that it is indeed the poe2 issue in which the renderer crashes and the band aid fix from GGG kicks in in which they basically restart the gpu related stuff. I've heard that reverting the gpu driver fixes this problem but havn't tried it yet.
