Alienhead Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I decided to install a fresh copy of windows and Radeon drivers to see if it would help the current situation. I haven't been able to get Ultra back up, I'm certain I'm missing something but haven't been able to figure it out yet. This is what I show when loading up Ultra after my clean installs.

Josh Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Looks like the project has no shader binaries in it. Maybe create a new project and load that?

Alienhead Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 No love, the Compile SHaders.bat makes the shaders for me but still they won't load.. IM going back to 22h2 and see what happens. Quote I'm only happy when I'm coding, I'm only coding when I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 If it can't load the files, they aren't there, wherever it is looking. Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 You can run this line in the console to see where the editor is looking: Print(CurrentDir()) Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

Alienhead Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Well I reinstalled win 22h3 but instead of using the AMD official drivers I thought I'd try something new. ( https://www.amernimezone.com/ ) . These drivers did not clear everything, single viewport crashes, and some thumbs never show, but it did help with all the random crashes I was getting in the editor, still get a few but 90% less than there were. So it's pretty clear to me AMD official drivers are not working to well in Ultra. The 3rd party drivers however worked much better.. plus it allow the bat file to compile shaders and Ultra editor actually loaded them up this time.

Alienhead Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 And surprisingly enough, these drivers yielded close to a 20% increase in FPS with Leadwerks, my startout map was running around 100 fps and it's getting 124 avg. now, go figure.

Josh Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 You don't ever need to compile shaders yourself. The shader binary files are provided in the /Shaders folder. The shader source code files are just there for customization. 1 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

Josh Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I'm going to move this because it isn't clear what exactly is being reported.
