64bit client bugs thread

maboleth · March 2016

So far the game has been running smoothly in terms of FPS on my machine (W10, i5-2400, 8gb ram, GTX950 2gb). The two-screens loading problem that I had before is gone with 64bit.

But there are many immersion breaking bugs so far:

- Missing textures in many places/pets/horses/characters. Glowing purple colour is shown instead.
- Missing parts, legs, helmets, hole in the head etc.
- Extremely slow loading of high-res textures. It takes about 0,5-1sec for a hi-res texture to load when you approach NPCs or players (apparently this is not 64bit-only related problem but still, hi-res textures load faster in 32bit)
- Music can totally stop in the middle of a game.
- White noise can be heard out of nowhere.
- Weird and inappropriate echo/reverb on some NPC voices.

Suggestion for the future: Make an option inside the launcher to choose 32 or 64 version.

Sadly, the game is unplayable in 64bit in the current form, at least for me.

Also, the launcher does not load when directly using the ESO64.EXE file.

Today, several of yesterday's issues fixed itself.

Few of the annoying stuff remains though:

- Missing textures in many places/pets/horses/characters. Glowing purple colour is shown instead (although much better and greatly reduced than yesterday, some animals are still in purple).
- White noise can be heard out of nowhere.
- Weird and inappropriate echo/reverb on some NPC voices.

In the client I get no animations one moving. Characters just glide. PC x64

I am getting missing textures (a LOT of them - THE WHOLE of Davons Watch is missing, only the ground underneath it, with NPCS and players standing and running about in mid air.

Also purple textures in places.

AND all my addons disappeared! What

In Cyrodiil I also got several endless sound loops of various items.

The biggest issue I've encountered is that some voice lines are not playing which really killed the questing experience for me. However, I haven't seen many people report on this which is strange.

^ That's why I wait a bit before questing newest additions.

Go into your addon settings and select 'allow out of date addons' or whatever, should sort it.

Purple textures for me in various places.

Core i7-5820
32 GB Memory
Win10

FPS is low. I normally cap at 60FPS using GSYNC. I am steady around 40FPS with the x64 client.

What I noted was that my second GPU in SLI was barely doing any work, maybe 1% usage at times while the primary GPU was pegging @ 99%. I downloaded the latest NVIDA drivers on Monday the 7th. I am using NVIDIA control panel and made sure to set the x64 client here to use SLI.

I can run the 32bit client and both GPU's are working in SLI without issue, FPS capping at 60 as expected.

I hope this helps.

+ launcher and client need fixes, several of them.

* Does the launcher load the 64bit client? If so, why does it always load the 32bit, which always crashes? If i load the 64bit client, and if my game is out-of-date, i get the message from login screen... So i have to start launcher, close it, then start 64bit client separated.
* The 64bit client crashes regularly: instant crash with or without crash report screen, black screen, frozen screen, after a couple of time, maybe 2 hours, more and more landscape go pinky, after that, crash...
If it gets me crash report screen, then it means, everything i did, my addons wont record them what i've done so far b4 crash...
* Random sounds cutting in and out, every type of. Or just no sound. Or just the sound is late or out of synch.
* Grouping Tool works fine when we are 1-3 people, but if we mean to enter any random dungeon, it starts to queue for almost 20 minutes or more...
* Grouping Tool gives u ONLY port and hide options, once it finds the last member for a specific dungeon. U cannot stop its counter -.-, u will be fatally ported... It sux...
* FPS is good.
* I saw some mobs which couldnt be targeted, were fixed and interacting well, now can be targeted.

I have been unable to start ESO64.exe. I consistently get and application error: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application." I've tried a repair with no success. Is there a way to download the executable again?

Kronuxx · March 2016

I'm having exactly the same problems as OP here. @ZOS_GinaBruno , please have the team take a look at this.

I'm on 64 bit client, I have more than enough RAM at 16gb, along with an 8 gb VRAM video card (r9 390 ati).

The first picture is in the Elden Hollow dungeon, which is wrought with bugs excludiing the pink textures, such as odd audio pop-ins, from water stream sound effects to just loud static sounds.

The second picture is in Mournhold.

By the way, these two pictures are not all inclusive. There are so many more pink textures all over the Tamriel map. Too many to list...

Morimizo · March 2016

Anybody else have the 64-bit client revert your screen to 800x600 resolution upon loading, even though the game still lists the setting at 1920x1080? I can fix it easily enough by switching to windowed, then back to fullscreen, but it's strange to have to do this every time.

64bit would be NICE if they would let me get it.

I saw post by ZOS staff saying it would automatically patch in if your os is 64 bit.
Another hype or absolute rubbish?

I run Win 7 64bit have 8 gig of memory yet the loader and ESO.exe are still x32 WHY?

Does anyone at ZOS have the capability of providing a STANDALONE 64bit installer / upgrade / cross-grade / patch ?

As your x32 always when you do a patch or update and heaven forbid a DLC nearly always has a problem and requires between two to five attempts to get game running again. Becoming like the unusable wix XP compatible version that never worked yes in the public beta trials.

Please proved me with direct link for 64bit installer and eso.exe versions.

You can quote me on this anytime.
Q. What happens when the ability to do things manually is taken away?
A. Automatic F... Ups naturally.
