@EggrollBoyReal Deleting the game user settings ini seems to help. The game did crash during gameplay though. I'm trying the performance mode now instead of DX12, maybe that will help. I guess it's a problem with DX12.
@@NotStelix Now, I can say after playing for multiple hours, that DX12 is the culprit. Keep in mind that the game worked perfectly fine before the update with DX12 and even with ray tracing and epic settings on my pc. Let's see when they fix it, performance mode did help here and I had no crashes.
My pc has been literally crashing only on fortnite mid game so i hope this works i just verified it dk why its not verified WHEN I INSTALLED THE GAME OR UPDATES lol epic just loves to throw these little loops in stuff
I build this PC a year ago for streaming (playing on a console), but switched over to playing and streaming on it a few months ago. In the first year I've only had it crash once while playing. When I upgraded to the 4080, I didn't adjust my custom fan settings in the BIOS and it was overheating. Since then, everything has been great....until the Remix Season 2 update. In the past 2-3 weeks I've had my PC crash 3-4 times, and the game itself has crash 6 times. Most of the game-only crashed have been in the past few days since I updated the NVIDIA driver. I even went back and did a clean uninstall/re-install with DDU and am still having issues. I've gone through and followed these steps. Hopefully it solves the problem.
Search how to change the maximum usage for your processor to 95 percent (it's in "Edit power plan"). If that doesn't help, you can try downclocking your GPU to 80%. Hope this helps.
dear PC users who suddenly started crashing tonight: try switching to borderless mode. and lower fps/settings. try updating your drivers and epicgames launcher. u update the launcher through settings. if that doesnt work, restart desktop. doesnt work? fresh uninstall fortnite and reinstall. last resort you fresh install the launcher all the way. try different window modes. if none of that works, its ggs
It's so weird, the game crashes with ray tracing enabled and disabled. Mostly when about 8 to 5 players are left, I don't get it. My Windows 11, my drivers, everything is up to date. It keeps crashing and crashing.
I have a custom gaming machine less then 6 months old - prior I had a custom build for 4 years - never once had fortnite crashing issues - now in the last 2 updates it crashed and will not launch - I have done all you list and everything else I can find. Literally been working on this for 4 hours today with no change. I could really use some insight since epic games is zero help.
did you figure it out? im having the same problem ever since all these updates started happening my game wont launch it just crashes and none of these videos ive watched have helped me fix it
i swear my game has never crashed on me till like a month or two ago :( only with fortnite too. not too often but it happens at the worst moments, also when i tab out sometimes
Bro thank you all the process helped me with the problem I appreciate it, I was looking to solve this since 1 week ago, Thank you You have a new subscriber 🔥🙌🏻
found a solution for PC players. update the epic launcher. click on library. 3 little dots next to fort. click manage then click on verify. confirm. let it scan. click options. there will be a buncha blank squares. 2 of them have checkmarks. turn off the 12x shaders. get the checkmark off. high res textures too. turn off. restart pc and it should work. no worries ur just sacrificing graphics
it doesn't happen everytime but whenever i tab out and go to youtube and then when it crashes both monitors go black and my top monitors goes white and its back to normal with a crash error text
This is so annoying the Game is so Bad optimized on pc i get random fps Drops for Like 2 seconds and i have an RTX 4090 random crashes in Matches as well just in fortnite, they gotta fix Their Game on pc, console Version is so much better optimised
I’ve tried everything like this, what caused it was once I tried changing my fps to 240, then it starting crashing, it won’t even load the game in, I can’t even get to the lobby or anything, pls help me 👇if u have same problem
THANK YOU, NOW MY FORTNITE WONT START. I FOLLOWED EVERY SINGLE STEP, AND WHAT DID I GAIN? NOTHING. ONLY A GAME THAT DOESNT WANNA LAUNCH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
ever since fortnitemares i have crashes that occur mid-end of matches. Disabling nanite is the only thing that works for some reason. It sucks because i have a high end pc and i was loving having lumen+RT at 100+ fps but for now no more lumen and rt
i updated my drivers and thats when fortnite started crashing any fixes? i've tried all the possible methods, deleting gameusersettings disable optimizations etc but nothing works ps im on laptop
The game used to crash when I launched the game, but changing it to run on DIrectX11 fixed the issue. However, when now when I load into a match, the game crashes. Would appreciate any help.
Thanks for the video but i have another problem. whenever i go to battle royal or any gamemode it kicks me out besides creative. do you know how to fix that
Would you know how to fix a game crashing mid match. Before the new season it worked fine. After reinstalling it seems to fix it but once i get off and get back in the same thing reoccurs. I tried all your steps and it didnt seem to fix anything. I dont want to keep reinstalling everysingle time just to play.
Nothing fixing it for me, 4790k 2080ti no issues for 5+ years and now I can’t play. Tried wiping the pc, install windows only, older tested July nvidia drivers, lowest settings all round and no overclocking and it’s crashing. I can literally die asap and “return to lobby” triggering the crash super quick.
I have an rtx 4060 with a i5 core. I’ve had in about 10 months. Fortnite has never had trouble with crashing before. But recently after 4/5 games it crashes and sends me back to epic games launcher. In the last two months it keeps happening though when I first got the pc it never happened. Also not one single other game crashes. Just Fortnite. I play literally everything you can think of with ease so why Fortnite is being difficult I do not know
see like my fortnite crashes everyday like once every 1-2 hours for no reason. It gives me that unreal engine crashing message and it sometimes gives me the blue screen when it crashes. This also happens to some of my other games like minecraft when it would crash for no reason. is this a ram problem like do i have faulty ram and need to replace it with new ones?
i got a gtx 670 ryzen 5 1600x i get 100 fps but i load in game sometimes i don't crash for like 2 matches then i crash or i instantly crash i got 8gb ram i did everything didin't help any solutions???
my game would atleast log in to the lobby before crashing, now im not even going past the loading screen after this video, only made my problem worse sadly even trying all the methods but its alright if it works for other people 😕😕
i resintalled the games 3 times already,reset router,change to another router,verify files and reinstalled epic games launcher,nothing sems to work i dunno what else to do at this point
U can try deleting game user settings and making sure u did the windows 8 settings. Also don't worry to much usually everything gets better in 2 weeks.

never crashed on fortnite til i went from a 3060ti to a 4070 and went from a i9 10900f to a i9 14900k and changed ram from 32gb of thermaltake 4400mhz to 64gb of vengeance 6000mhz ram all my drivers and biosa re up to date ive already verified files idk why i be randomly crashing at times on fortnite and fortnite only CoD and Oncehuman and other games work perfectly fine
I click on the game so I can play it, after finishing the Anti Cheat loading screen, instead of starting the game, it just opens Epic Games launcher. It appears that Fortnite is already executing, but there is not even a screen of the game. After that, if i press right click, windows simply crashes and I need to manually restart my pc.
