Will you EVER fix the memory leaks?

General Discussion PC

It’s been an issue since launch. There is NO WAY in HELL that you don’t know about it. It’s been brought up to death. And not even a confirmation that you know about it or a single word has been said about the subject.

It’s getting tiresome only being able to play for 2-3 hours before the game has completely sucked the RAM and VRAM dry and the game **** itself and dies.

How long does it take to shutdown the comp and restart?
I understand it is a pain but a couple of minutes every 3 hours is a small price to pay - isn’t it? I assume Blizz is aware of the problem so it is probably very hard to fix - only an assumption.

Blizzard are supposed to be a AAA com ,and the expensive game has been out 2 YEARS and your making excuses for them?

  1. Put the textures on high.
  2. Geometry to low.
  3. Physics to low.
  4. Disable the trace of rays.
  5. Background shading and shadows to high.
  6. Smoothing to low.
  7. Fog to low.
  8. Fur to the average.
  9. In the Nvidia driver, physics processing on the most powerful processor. For example, I have on the CPU and my FPS in Poe 2 hath doubled in comparison with a video card or auto choice).
  10. Disable the fullscreen optimization in the properties of the exe file.
  11. Ye can also try to put a delay ultra in Nvidia’s driver if the vertical/adaptive or G synchronization is turned on, and turn off both things into the game. Set frequency to the frequency of thy monitor or double (it seems I correctly said :grinning:). For example, if ye have 60 hertz, put to 120. Leave the background one by default, 30 seems.
  12. Disable unnecessary background programs such as Cortana and unnecessary programs from the auto load.
  13. Windows settings - Confidentiality- Diagnostics and reviews- turn off personalized opportunities.
  14. Disable the Game Bar.
  15. Try to disable the planning of the graphic processor and see. Some games go worse with it.
  16. Go to a file “Localpref.txt” ( usual is in C driver) and change “croma effects” from 0 to 1. It still working from beta time and help against disconnects for example and other bugs.

Do all these no matter how powerful machine ye have. Maybe this will help ye.

TBH I have yet to experience this “memory leak” on the 3 systems with D4 installed on here;

13900K, 128GB RAM, RTX5080 - Page Files Disabled
9900K, 64GB RAM, RTX3080ti - Page Files Enabled
8700K, 32GB RAM, RTX2080 - Page Files Enabled

Neighbours 10600K, 32GB + RTX3060ti doesn’t either.

Keep hearing about this so called ‘bug’ but RAM & VRAM all stay pretty much static during even long game sessions. Have tried with Ray Tracing enabled & have been through virtually every settings combination possible to try to encounter a Memory Leak with numerous different GPU & Chipset drivers.

The only system I haven’t tried with it is an AMD Ryzen or Radeon based one because I simply don’t have one to hand nor want one TBH.

Pagefile or not… it´s the same problem.

i have 96GB DDR5 Memory and also get memory leaks.
i also get Black Screens after Teleporting after playing a while.

Maybe the Developer that could fix this memory leak CORE problem, has been fired a long time ago because the CEO thought he wouldnt need him anymore…

Many companies fire their best workers too early… just to keep the money for themselfes…

Dude,

Diablo4 runs well in Windows 11 Power Save Mode with the right CPU like a Ryzen 9

All this tuning stuff is mostly worthless for new Gen Computers…

The problem lies in the Core Engine of Diablo4 and the same for many other games…

Core Programmers are expensive , they usually get fired 1st if CEO´s think everything will be fine without them… then later the companies cant fix anything anymore…

Path of Exile 2 , Diablo 4 and others join this list…
