Issue Type (Required):
Error - Out of Memory
1st crash: <<Crash>>HRESULT: 2147942414 = E_OUTOFMEMORY
Issue Description (Required):
After i game i went into the inventory to check out the weapon i got from the mission.
Then the crash happened.
The crash caused my screen to go black and then into sleep mode after briefly showing “No input is detected”.
After i restarted the monitor i got the screen back…
I’ve never experienced such a crash before, ever.
Not in this game nor any other game, this was a first.
EDIT: It happened again, twice.
Both 2nd & 3rd time this crash happened i did the following:
Started Darktide → Selected character → loaded into the Mourningstar (the hub) → opened my inventory.
2nd time this crash occurred, the inventory opened, and i navigated my inventory to the new Mk XIV Revolver and pressed the key to see the weapon details.
3rd time this crash occurred the crash happened when i opened my inventory.
Background processes:
- 1st Crash occurrence: The first time this crash happened i didn’t have any unnecessary processes running in the background.
-
- 2nd & 3rd Crash occurrences: I had a few Firefox webpages and one excel sheet up.
-
How to reproduce
If you want to recreate this Crash/ERROR “on demand”, simply start a few processes to make sure you have 5GB or less available when running the game.
If you want to recreate this Crash/ERROR when you have 10GB or more available you have to either:
- Leave the game running for 2hrs or more, then play at least three full games to the end.
- Actively play the game for at least 2hrs.
2.1. I’ve had “OUR OF MEMORY” Error’s before, but they didn’t have this effect. Anyhow, i have noticed that “OUT OF MEMORY” Error’s are most likely to occur after 3 to 5 game sessions.

GPU info when Crash/ERROR occurred the 2nd & 3rd time:
The above picture shows that it could be the VRAM that causes the Crash, but it seems unlikely.
Because i can reproduce the crash consistently by simply leaving a few Firefox webpages open in the background.
RAM usage when Crash/ERROR occurred the 2nd & 3rd time:

The above picture shows that it’s most likely the RAM usage that causes the Crash.

RAM usage when the Crash/ERROR occurred the fourth time:

It looks like to me that it’s pretty clear now that the RAM is what’s causing the Crash.
