AC Startup Crash (GPU failed)

Tanner7394 · Jan 25, 2020

Hey guys,

yesterday I've bought the full package of Assetto Corsa on Steam. Reason for this was the incredible amount of mods e.g. SOL.
Now I tried to add the Custom Shader Patch to my freshly installed game, but there is no way, that I can launch the race with any car or any track. I haven't installed any other mods yet.
Every time I wanted to start the game it crashed instantly with "Game crashed: GPU failed...".
If I try to do some random gaming without the Custom Shader Patch everything works fine.

Same started happening here. Will try to downgrade the shaders package (currently I'm using the latest which is v.1.39)
EDIT: seems to be somewhat "track+car combo" related.

Have you got this ticked? If so, UNTICK it. Seems to have solved my issue (along with a few others).
It's in CSP general patch settings, where all the CPU/GPU optimisations are.

Thanks for this tip, a few weeks back it stopped auto adjusting my desktop resolution to match my AC settings. This fixed it straight away and that occassional GPU fail startup error.

Thanks!

hey i have this issue. i need help

manc0ntr0 · Mar 26, 2020

I had it too. I did what @Mascot said and never again

k41zen · Mar 30, 2020

Still got the issue. Un-ticking this doesn't work for me. Same issue when running without CM. Deleted CM, AC and all the user documents folders too. Only experiencing in AC and no other game. Anyone have any ideas?

William Crudup · Apr 2, 2020

Ok so my game was fine all yesterday, didn't make any changes now I get this error launching, anyone have a solution for those who never found a fix?
Thanks in advance.

Update: CSP went back a version on me is what caused this issue, manually get the latest CSP and manually install it, it should fix this issue. Hope it helps someone.

Post your issue instead of just saying you need help.

the same problem

For me this crash seems to be Steam VR related. Turn off openvr setting to single screen and works fine. Steam VR on, it crashes. It crashes when just using assetto Corsa launcher with no CM at all.

The game says gpufailed when you enter multiplayer over cm but it doesn't give error when singleplayer enters

Go and redownload manually CSP and put it in the mods folder. Turn off auto update ie lock it. That's what fixed it for me.

Hey, I today find something simple that make Assetto Corsa crash and the cause is the image sharpening on my Nvidia Control Panel. Last time, this feature was enabled. After trying to disable it, the game work again like a normal.

k41zen · Apr 14, 2020

Not sure if this will help anyone but I've had this issue for a little over three weeks. Started around the back end of March. No other game issues but as soon as I'm thrown in a car in AC, wether that's with CM launching it or native in AC, I would be shown a single frozen image of inside the car. The game would still be running for a little while as I'd hear the cars drive away and then it would crash with the same GPU failed messages and asking me to try and re-install CSP. I completely CM and AC found in steamapps, documents, AppData. Downloaded AC again and launched from within AC and still crashed. So for me it wasn't CM/CSP related.

What I have done though and this "has" worked for me is to downgrade my Nvidia drivers for 432 from 445. 432 was release on the 20/03 and so was 445. I just updated them without really paying attention and went back in to AMS2. Then of course when I tried AC it was crashing. As it was only AC that was crashing I spent a lot of time focussing on that not thinking the video drivers would only cause 1 game to crash. AMS2, PC2, ACC, R3E. AMS, rFactor were all fine.

Anyway, hope this helps someone.
