When you are supposed to enter the eluvian at the beginning, it just has a black infinite loading screen. Anyone else running into this? I can't progress the DLC. ![]()

Are you using mods?

Nope, never used mods at all. Has anyone on PC been able to progress past this point?

From the Dragon Age Facebook page:
(I'm in this thread because I play on PC but won't have a chance to DL it until after work -- but please, I don't want spoilers)
-
-
Krista Maw and as soon as i can get mine to load i'll play it. maybe if I wait an hour that will be efficient. You know assuming it just doesn't freeze again. 3rd time is the charm right?
-
Krista Maw no it isn't. apparently. Guess I'll start my 2 hr fix game routine. Except this time the game works fine just not the DLC. Should be interesting.
-
Krista Maw or i'll try something else first. cuz my computer just loves loading DAI over & over
-
Krista Maw and nope. so screw it. I'm playing Pillars of Eternity cuz it WANTS me to play it. while this DLC clearly does not.

Hell I can't even start the bloody dlc, it always crashes when I start it from the war table, and no mods either.

I'm getting the same thing and I have never used any mods for DA:I.

Mine has a CTD when activating the first eluvian as well as when attempting to speak with Vivienne.
Hopefully there'll be a fix soon

Remember the advertising game designed for PC gamers? How naive we were.

Well, I've tried twice now to start it and both times got me a ctd on the loading screen. I... guess I'll keep trying. ![]()

Mine only has the CTD on talking to Vivienne, so I just didn't talk to her.
Haven't run into additional issues yet, but bracing for them.
I am running mods btw.

I seemed to have resolved the issue. Not sure what did it, but I reinstalled my gfx drivers, changed the casual outfit to the default one and then restarted my pc.

I don't know if this will work, but from numerous issues with black screen in beta testing, some if us discovered the following can help (doesn't always):
1. If you have any autosaves in your saves folder along with the one you're trying to load, move or delete them.
2. Failing that, try to have only the save you're trying to load in your saves folder.
This doesn't always help, but in 85% of the black screen loading issues I tested, that did not have "video card" as a factor, it did.
ETA: "Milestone" saves as well. Sorry. Forgot those. ![]()

Well seems I spoke too soon, just reloaded a save and the mirrors aren't working again. ![]()

I did 2 things at once and it seems to have worked. Turned V-Sync off and changed from DX11 to Mantle, so if you have an AMD card, it may be a temporary fix. Enabled V-sync after the first eluvian and seems to be working fine. Will test tomorrow to see if it's a DX issue or Vsync. Hope this helps some of you

I am also having this issue. I have never used any mods, tried having only one active save in my saves folder, etc. Can't get past this =/

Yes.

I finally got to the start of the Trespasser dlc after numerous attempts and CTDs. I deleted all my mods. I repaired the game. I even replayed the final battle with Corypheus and changed my nug for a horse. i accepted the mission, left the war table and then wandered around Hinterlands and Crestwood before returning to Skyhold and the war table. I did these steps one at a time and crashed every time. I never got to the conference via the war table. I was able to fast travel via the world map. I clicked on the "Peace conference" icon and I was there.
I talked to people. looked at items in the shop, even synced again with the golden nug. I was fine until I got to the first Eluvian. I started to enter and BOOM, ctd. Never even got the chance to pick my party members. I'll try again later when I'm less tired and frustrated.
BTW, what happened to Teagan? I literally did not recognize him. When I saw him I thought it was Rendon Howe's ugly, scrawny cousin. He looks like a mean, shriveled up . . . something.

If anyone's still having this issue, check if you have the upgrade to Lunge and Slash that gives it no stamina cost selected. If you do, try picking the other one.

Turned off multi-sample anti-aliasing (or whatever the second one is called) and have had no further CTDs even with fullscreen and a small selection of mods. I didn't expect to see them, I just wanted to see if they were game breaking. And I've been able to talk to everybody as far as I can tell.

Excuse me, but i seem to have the same problem you have, everytime i go to the war table ad click on the exalted cpuncil and venture forth, i get an infinite loading screen, however when i go to the world map i don't see any icons to the Exalted Council could you post an image or explain somehow, i would appreciate it.

I can post an image when I get to my other computer, however the location is to the east and a little south of Val Royeaux near Emprise. Iirc, the icon is called Peace Summit and not Exalted Council. Don't know why, but there you go. I didn't notice it immediately, either.

Remember the advertising game designed for PC gamers? How naive we were.
These issues are typically caused by multisample antialiasing, which means it's a problem with the computer not having enough GPU memory to support MSAA. That's not a problem with the game, that's a problem with players being too ambitious about what their rig can handle.
So... yes, they are making it for PC gamers. If they were optimizing for consoles, the graphics settings would be lower, not higher.
In fact, Trespasser dropped support of older gen consoles, so it's likely that it's more GPU-intensive than the base game. That's probably why people are suddenly seeing issues now.
[ Sidenote: you may be wondering why MSAA causes more issues than other ultra/high graphics settings. The reason is, in order to multisample, the graphics card has to deal with a screen size that's double or quadruple (or more) times the dimensions of your actual screen. Since there are two dimensions to a screen, width and height, 2x dimensions translates to 4x the number of pixels, and 4x dimensions translates to 16x the number of pixels. So the amount of information the GPU has to process gets out of hand really fast. If the GPU is struggling, MSAA will be the first thing that brings it to its knees. ]
