Hi,

Thank you for your reply. As of right now, I no longer experience these crashes and freezes. Yesterday I installed extra 4gb of RAM - 4gb to 8gb ( Don't know if that has to do anything with this problem). I decided to give Valorant another try and for some reason, it made me have to install Vanguard again. I install it, reboot my computer, start Valorant and it didn't freeze or crash. I am finally able to play. Unfortunately, since I no longer have this problem, I can't create a dump 🙁.

Here's a screenshot of the file after I have opened VALORANT.

• Description: Today I tried to start Valorant, and instead of the game actually starting my whole computer froze, in a way it has never happened before. I couldn't move the cursor, CTRL+ALT+DEL wasn't working, at this moment I was in a discord call with my friends and the audio of my friend talking froze too into a repeating ear-tearing sound. I had to manually shut down my computer which I never have to do. After this I started my computer again and tried to launch it, instead of the client starting or anything the game just didn't want to even start. I checked the resource monitor for my computer and Valorant was automatically closing when I tried to start it up. I am afraid that this crash that happened to my computer was caused by riot's anti-cheat system, Riot Vanguard and I really don't know what to do to prevent this from happening in the future and how can I even launc...

Same issue here. Also 100% reproduction rate. Happened in 600 seconds log in queue, in collection menu as well as in practice range.

Frames drop to only few and whole PC freezes for around a minute, after which I get critical error message. Choices I make in error message have no impact also.

I don't have a file called WindowsClient, but I do have a folder called Windows but the only file in that folder is called "RiotLocalMachine".

This is my Valorant folder, the GameUserSettings folder is inside the "294139cf-a4e3-55c4-bc9f-1fbe1d4126a1" folder.

I could not find another instance of GameUserSettings in the other folders OR a .cfgi file called "config".

I changed the numbers to 1920x1080 but it did nothing.

Could there also be a way to know how to obtain the skins? I.e, some text in the corner saying shop, battlepass, contract, etc?

It definitely has somewhat impacted it, I was getting 290-350 FPS yesterday and now I’m barely hitting 250.

And I’m not sure if you have any say in map rotations, but I have played ascent 8 times in a row now, and I’m starting to get sick of the map. I know y’all want us to play it and get used to it, but after 3 in a row, could you potentially make it so we won’t get that map again?

Edit: just for more info

My specs are

Vega 56

I5 8600k (5.0ghz)

16gb 3200 ram

2tb ssd (it’s not the fastest ssd, but it’s samsung q or something like that)

I’m gonna restart my pc rn and I’ll update this again if it fixes

Edit: so the issue might be vanguard actually. I’m seeing it taking up around 30% cpu in task manager and dropping valorant down to 65%.

I still have lower fps after the restart

can you guys please look at the disappearing HUD bug? i've already posted it more than 10 times on the megathread and it's happening since 0.50

Not sure if this helps at all, but I'd also experienced collision issues (bug report with videos) with that floor.

One question, What were the updates changing?, I dont see any mini patch notes so is it just bug fixes?

They probably meant the battlepass and an agent contract, since the battlepass is de facto a contract. Battlepass is the second contract.

If you are talking about showing players what they get in terms of XP beforehand - yeah, it's a good idea, but I wasn't even thinking about it.

My suggestion is to give at least some XP for custom matches. So that players, who focus on tournaments/pugs/scrims (thus spend most of their time playing custom games), have a chance to earn rewards too. XP might come at slower rates and there should probably be some requirements like a minimum length of a match (so that people don't use customs to farm rewards), but it's still better than nothing.
