Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Dev Tracker

Hi @Kurotenno,

Sorry to hear that. I recommend running through some potential solutions in this article:

Ah gotcha No problem - if you do change your mind let me know.

You can try a fresh re-install - just in case!

I can’t see any mods enabled from your logs, but if you are using any mods, please try disabling them.

You mention the crash occurring when another player joins your lobby… It’s a shot i the dark, but if you’re using a VPN, perhaps try disabling this also.

Unfortunately you’re still running into a similar Deadlock crash

I can see you’re still using DX 11. When switching DirectX versions, did you find DX 12 to be any more stable at all?

As you’ve tried all of the usual solutions I’m happy to contact Steam and request a refund for you. I appreciate it’s not ideal, but let me know if this is something you’d wish to do.

Hi @GreyFalcon,

Past the standard audio fix solutions I don’t have an immediate fix I can suggest. Though, I’ve passed this information on internally for investigation and we’ll keep an eye out for other reports of this.

If your friend could provide any videos of this happening with special spawns, and the console log from their sessions this would be helpful to look at.

To provide a console log:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark\Vermintide 2\console_logs
4. Locate the console log that corresponds with the session in which the issue occurred, by looking at the timestamps in the log names
5. Upload the appropriate console log to us

Hi @StinkEye,

This one is another similar Deadlock crash. As I suggested in your other post, please can you try changing DirectX version and see if this improves stability for you.

Hi @StinkEye,

From the logs I can see you’re running into a Deadlock crash, which can be a little tricky to troubleshoot.

Can you please try changing from DirectX 11 to DirectX 12 and see if this helps? You can switch DirectX versions using the ‘Settings’ menu within the Vermintide 2 launcher.

Hi @mashmonster,

Looking at the two crash reports provided you’re running into an Access Violation type crash. However, the first log references an issue with your GPU drivers, and second log references NVIDIA PhysX.

The logs definitely nod toward it being a GPU issue, so I recommend trying solutions here:

Are you using an external monitor for your laptop?

Hi @KalleCarrion,

Based on the information in the logs, it appears that Microsoft Basic Render Driver is set as your default GPU. Do you have another GPU that is not being detected?

This is consequently resulting in your crashes in Vermintide 2, as your default GPU cannot handle the demand.

Please see below for our solutions for this problem:

• Ensure your monitors are plugged in to the dedicated (as opposed to the integrated) GPU ports on the back of your PC
• Perform a clean re-installation of your GPU drivers using the appropriate instructions below:
  • For AMD GPUs: ...

We’re not all clued in on what possibilities there are with Twitch’s new tech, just that their new tools arent compatible with our 4 year old game so we need to make some changes to keep twitch mode in Vermintide 2 working.

Hi @Rbl,

You’re encountering a Deadlock crash which can be tricky to troubleshoot.
