POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

Can we please have a fix for this instead of fu**** around with skills and whatnot? I crashed like 20 times this evening ... only game making problems ...

a

I was trying to change the renderer from DX12 to Vulkan, but everytime I would do it in the UI it would freeze the PC.

So, I edited the ini file and it seems to have solved my problems. Been playing for over and hour with teleporting multiple places with no freezing.

"C:\Users\User\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile 2\poe2_production_Config.ini"

The location my file was in.

The change:
renderer_type=Vulkan

Just to let you guys know, you might not want to hear this, but I fixed the problem on my end. I had tcreate memory on my am5 mobo, I switched to corsair memory today and the problem went away completely. It was a hardware issue for me, incompatible ram with the motherboard apparently this game wasn't fond of. Also, another work-around is capping FPS at 90 in foreground in game settings. (which i dont need to do anymore). 10+ hours zero freezes or crashes now after changing ram out. This came is very picky to ram, it will make you aware if you have ram issues even if you never noticed any issues before, likely tcreate ram or not ram certified for your motherboard.

Yo fix your game I paid $30 for this crap. Its been 4 days without a fix.

Glad it worked out for you, but there is no way every user reporting issues has faulty / Incompatible components.

Playing since Saturday and today out of nowhere the game just freezes on the loading screen, I've tried 10 times and it always loads infinitely, fix this for yesterday.

Still no BIG official post or announcement

my recommendation for you guys is to look in your mobo manual or get the manual online and make sure you have approved ram for your mobo. That was my issue. it 100% went away we I replaced t-create ram with compatible corsair ram from the manual. Good luck guys. This game is very picky with ram but it is a hardware issue none the less.

its possible. I was having the same exact issue, freezing during loading. Make sure you are using approved ram from your mobo manual, if not there is likely your issue. I was in denial too.
