Hi!

Since the 1.2-Update the game just crashes just before the part when you have to "press a button (or enter/any key/whatever)", so immediately after starting. Can't play now anymore. Found noone with the same problem, neither a fix. I have the steam version. Before the update, the game worked well. I only had the problem, that I always had to set the keys for my G920 after every start, which is also annoying...
Hope you can help me with this!

Greetings

EDIT: Saw that "Oliwen" had the same problem. So I have to reinstall now -.-

Could you try the following please:

If updating to the latest drivers for your sound device does not fix this you'll want to try changing the playback properties from 44KHz to 48KHz. This is done by right clicking the audio device in the (windows audio control panel) playback list, choosing properties, clicking the advanced tab and then changing the format to 24bit 48KHz.

Just reinstalled the game and it starts just like it should. Is the fix with the sound drivers/playback properties for the problem with the settings of my wheel? I haven't checked this out yet. At least the game works again *_*

Same here with a Thrustmaster TX Wheel and latest Nvidia GFE update...

You can go to services.msc and disable Nvidia Network Service. Then go to task manager and kill nvidia share processes. Start the game. Let me know if it fixed it for you too. I've did it like that but still had some problems with recording in different games so finally I've reverted to stable version.

Yes, turning off the Nvidia Network Service fixed that.

Thanks.

The motion blur turning on and off all the time is still there...
It's very annoying and disturbing when playing with the hood cam.

Will it be fixed ? It was not there during development, it showed up with a previous update (1.1 or before).

Also, can you add a setting to turn off motion blur completely ?
I really don't like it when I play at more than 60 FPS, I'm using a 144Hz screen so motion blur is just useless.

Would you be able to send your dxdiag to Dirtgame@codemasters.com please?  What graphics settings are you playing on?  Shader detail is the one that controls the blurring effect.

Email sent!

I also joined the game settings file, but everything is set to ultra except the advanced blending, 2560*1440, MSAA 2x.

After the update i am not able to start the game. On the moment i get the splash screen it crashes and says "Dirt Rally executable has stopped working"
I reinstalled the game with no result.
When i removed the oculus app for reinstalling i discovered, the game is working when the oculus app is not isntalled.
But that is no solution for me.


This is what windows event viewer is showing.

The description for Event ID 0 from source OculusVR cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

*** VR OCULUS RIFT PROBLEM ***

Quasio said:

For Oculus CV1 sometimes driving is just in floating window in the tyre ball, same as menu screen, rather than jumping to being inside the cockpit. 
(same as another person here)

Have had this twice, quiting and re-entering the race did not work.

(Steam version)

Same here for me, in game VR working in the Oculus Rift HMD via the menu then when I select Start to start a race the gameplay is on the screen where the menu is instead of going to proper VR in the headset. So it is like playing in cinema mode inside the Rift.

I rebooted the game and it worked properly next time but now it seems to be doing it more often since then and I cannot get back to proper VR mode.  Nothing changed in my system and I am running the latest update Nvidia driver on my 1080, 368.81 on Win10 64bit Pro.

Actually after rebooting the crash at the start occured again. So reinstalling does not fix it.
But changing the properties of my audio device to 48 kHz (16bit) worked! Thank you so much!

2 bugs for me:
1. Theres no sound output except for dirt rally.
2. I had it twice in a row that my times were registered as another driver.
I was somebody from my steam friend list, so to speak.
Edit:Bug #2 appeared at bidno moorland reverse afternoon/overcast again with another car.
Bug # 2 solved: I had a edited replay_camera_config.xml (DOH!)

I forgot:  Thank you for your great job to this .. but i got an additional question to the Game´s Engine in the reason of this update

V1.2 downloaded 
CV1 enabled + SLI Enabled
Game Started
Ghosting with VR + SLI ?  you made it to the actuallyst Version of SDK? Why there is no VR SLI support / Gameworks VR support right now?

I think SLI is a must have feature for High Performance VR solutions...  (is the Gameworks VR software code integrated to the code of Dirt Rally?? )
i cant understand that most publishers not intrested in high performance VR .. and NV made her code j4that


Greets Stefan

Have you tried it since the new drivers were released?  We have not been able to reproduce the issue with the new drivers (version 368.81, released July 14th).  

[Makrish 0]

If you force AFR1 or 2 then you have ghosting...
If you do nothing only one Card works ?

Should it use the 2nd Card or is VR SLI not integrated yet?

Edit : just tried a full deinstall of Videodriver (DDU Tool)  then made an fresh reinstall of Version 368.81,...  then enabled SLI in Videodriver (without force of AFR1 or 2) .
Result: Ghosting while driving if you turn your head and WEAR the Headset.

Also maybe not a bug, but would like arms to match steering angle of real wheel.

Yes I have the same problem, extremely annoying, destroying my carer progress!!!! Any answers to this!!!!

The Friends comparison menu after a stage run no longer shows the difference in times on the right side,...it shows their total time!

to me the game is not part of the full screen, continues to remain in the window and takes me a lot of fps (I have a nvidia gtx960m card) you can solve?

[bj75 0]

Have you tried deleting the hardware_settings_config under documents/my games/Dirt Rally/hardwaresettings?
Which OS and NV drivers are you using?

Have you tried alt+enter?

[DanieleGrasso 0]

I have the same problem from time to time but alt+enter usually fixes it for me.
Have you tried setting your resolution manually in the "hardware_settings_config.xml" and there set fullscreen to "true"?

@Codies: What's the <screenshotMode enabled="" /> for?

[deraltesack 0]

Just installed the game yesterday.
I have graphic issues from time to time that textures are black.
So partly you can see nothing.
No oculus, only single monitor. AMD graphic and processor. CPU is a FX-6300.
Moderate resolution only. This was on the initial career track.
Steering is a trustmaster without FF

having a problem with the rift, about 1/5 of the time the race won't load into VR and just stays in the cinema mode. I can save/quit and go back in to fix it, but I got nauseous doing the last stage of the weekly since I couldn't back out and go back in. please fix or provide work around! maybe a hotkey to reset/reload the VR headset? thanks

Anyone having troubles with new friends appearing on DiRTGame.com? Few of my friends has bought the game, I've got them in steam friends but I'm not able to add them to my league. Is that normal?

Edit: I see there's separate friends list here: https://accounts.codemasters.com/friends
I've added him a few days ago already and he's listed there. However he's not appearing in the league invitation list.

P.S. Another bug related to that page. 
When nickname contains $ the search fails. 

Edit2: Friend added me (I've got a normal nickname) and he did appeared. Will I miss the first friend forever from the dropdown? :(

I do not work in the game replays please help fix the problem I play Steam

[superdorfer 11]

No idea whether Dirt Rally bugs still get fixed or not. But I come across the following issue over and over again:
From time to time in community events, i start way behind the starting line. This is happening especially often in wager events.
Lastly seen yesterday (Dezember 11) in the Monaco S4 wager event (daily2): https://www.dirtgame.com/de/telemetry/5 -> if you compare P1 & P2. This is annoying since I'am a rather competitive guy :-) Can anybody offer some help?
