Meta-issue for Battlefield Hardline.

• Working?

Does not work.

Got this error message when trying to start a match:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Assertion failed!

Can you dump the shader binaries?

[bazookaben]

How would I do that?

[niobium93]

Set the GRVK_DUMP_SHADERS=1 environment variable.

[Cherser-s]

Yup, then the game will probably dump it in "current" directory (which will be probably the game directory). There will be three files per each shader: AMD IL binary, AMD IL text and the resulting SPIRV code.

[bazookaben]

OK I brought up the Environment Variable window in Windows, so what do I put in "variable" and what do I put in "value"? Or am I in the wrong place

[Cherser-s]

well, in the snippet above, "1" is the value, while "GRVK_DUMP_SHADERS" is the key/name (or "variable").

[Cherser-s]

Actually, if you are using Steam, you can set an environment variable there as in GRVK_DUMP_SHADERS=1 %command%.

[bazookaben]

Ok, I tried the setting that environment variable both in the user and system categories, and in the "launch options" in the Origin launcher. No new files appeared in the game directory

[Cherser-s]

idk about windows, maybe you need to reboot your pc and check that env var is set through echoing inside cmd.exe. You can set GRVK_LOG_LEVEL variable to debug, so you get more data in logs (will be easier to find failing shaders). Also download newer grvk libraries, since I've implemented one of the instructions that are being used by the game and weren't implemented (maybe this will compile the shader correctly when you are joining the match, though tess shaders are still not implemented in the moment).

[niobium93]

First open PowerShell in the games folder, then you can set variables easily in PowerShell:

$env:GRVK_DUMP_SHADERS = 1

Then launch the game from the same PowerShell session.

Yeah restarting my PC was the key

I used build #39, which didn’t crash but just basically ran as a background process I could see in task manager

GitHub won’t let me post a Zip for some reason, so here’s a drive link, includes the log : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ugKijTgFRIan3xxf-FvaLpIF8WdkcqjC/view?usp=drivesdk

Unfortunately I can't test the game because Battlelog doesn't work on Linux...
