After the 50MB patch both the ESO.exe and Launcher still have memory leaks. They are small, but still there. In the KB range. Over time you will still run out of memory. This is a step in the correct direction, but work still needs to be done on finding all the memory leaks.

Have they even confirmed that they patched the memory leak?

I just downloaded a patch when I got booted out of the game for the 5th time today after interacting with a crafting station. So, apparently they patched the memory leak already.

Yes, there is a memory leak patch, but it still leaks.

much smaller memory footprint on my system after 30 minutes of play... 1.0GB vs 1.6-1.8 or so... thanks for the fix!
Now, if you could help my wife out by finding someone to clean up our yard this weekend...

Hi folks, we just created a thread saying this, but we wanted to make sure everyone in this thread saw it.

The small patch that fixes the memory leak and infinite loading screen issue is now available for the North American megaserver. There is no downtime required. If you are currently in the game, please log out completely to apply the fixes.

This patch will be available on the European server in approximately 4-5 hours. Thank you all for your patience as we worked to fix these issues.

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Arsenic_Touch · May 2014

So from the sounds of some people, it didn't fix anything.

Orlacc · May 2014

I monitored my memory over 3 hours last evening with no appreciable memory loss. Sorry. But then.....EVERYONE says there is a memory leak so in order to fit in I must say so as well.

Knotsnwhatnot · May 2014

Husband and myself are both experiencing the memory leak issue especially going from one zone to another. We have to keep rebooting as our computers just freeze up completely. We can't play like this so are waiting until there is a fix. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Agerasia · May 2014

Yeah, the patch definitely didn't fix anything for me. My memory loss numbers have even went up very slightly. Still can't stay on for more than a minute or so and apparently i'm not the only one. Might be fixed for a few but the problem is still there.

Myconid · May 2014

I still have the infinite loading screen.

Rykoth · May 2014

Patch appears to have fixed it. If there's still a leak, memcleaner is actually working now, whereas before it wasn't. No graphics issues, nothin'.

patch is working to thank god.

Snowstrider · May 2014

Will the update fix the log in timed out problem? i mean its a serious problem when people cant even log in. That should be their top priority.

I still cant log in, was all excited when the post came out. Now though, sad panda.

SinisterJoint · May 2014

Patch is working great for me, no memory usage increase at all except when I first logged in.

holding steady at 1.2g

Kingslayer · May 2014

So the Eu server hasn't had the fix yet?

Snowstrider · May 2014

Wait.. You have a patch? I am on the eu server and i havent got a patch yet

Have they said if the patch fixed the log in timeout/cant log in problem? Is it related to this problem?

SinisterJoint · May 2014

they said 4-5hour for eu patch, hang in there guys

Myconid · May 2014

Im in NA and still cant log in

Yeah they have to take the EU server down and choose to do this at 5AM EU time. Very good of them, cause we are a few who can play. I rather play tonight, sleep, then play even better tomorrow!

Can you guys please reboot the server instead of forcing vr 6+ players to kill the mobs you messed up, in the first place?

Kthx

ZOS_JessicaFolsom · May 2014

We completed pushing the patch to the European megaserver much earlier than anticipated. If you are currently playing on the European megaserver please completely exit the client and patch to get the fixes. Thank you!

Damn thanks for the incoming hotfix which is much needed but I have to ask, do you guys ever take time off? It's a holiday and a pretty big one at that. Fix this issue then go home! Game can wait!

They are working 24/7 because of the severity of the "service".
Zenimax KNOWS any time the game isn't playable and I am not talking about some stupid fix on a class who claims they can not play because 1 SKILL doesnt work.

They work until most people can play the game.

Those with just 4GB or even playing on a LAPTOP?????? Unless you paid like 1000 $ for the laptop, get a proper computer, because ESO require 4GB to play. And if you are using Win 8, you dont even have access to 4GB.

Get more RAM. Its cheap. And if you like playing these game and this isnt just about ESO, get a proper computer lol!

The staff will go home and get some sleep when they fixed it is players with some sort of playable system (laptop, with a crap HD, useless motherboard, probebly max medium graphic card, low RAM and win 8 will still have problems, but I am sorry, that are problems on your end.)

My laptop is 5 yrs old.. until this patch I played on high settings with 0 lag. 0 stutters at 60-80FPS.

This laptop plays bf4 on high settings. Played TOmb rRaider on highest possible settings.

4gig Ram, ATI Mobility Radeon 4670, i7 1.60GHz (8CPUs). This wasn't my problem It was theirs.

Thanks Jess. Patched now,But the problem is still there.. it didnt fix it

Still cant log in.. when will that get fixed? alot of people cant even log in

tigerblood · May 2014

What I don't understand is why nobody used the the trick/fix I explained earlier that would have likely allowed anyone with a leak to play. I used OpenGL instead of DirectX and it worked better than before the leak. Try to help, get ignored.

Are you getting error 301, @Stowstrider? If so, we're still working on tracking down the cause of it and will update the main threads about the issue when we have more info.
