FREEZING ERROR

Some  players have reported that their game randomly freezes in the middle of a match. The solution to this is quite simple and all you have to do is disconnect any unnecessary USB device from your PC. Hopefully, this will resolve the issue for you.

“Dx11Renderer::tryMap” ERROR

If you encounter this error when trying  to launch the game, you can try reinstalling your GPU driver by opting  to do a clean install. If that doesn’t work, then try running DirectX from the game’s folder, and this should fix the issue for you.

AUDIO STUTTERING

One prominent issue with the game that players have experienced is that the sound stutters randomly. This can be resolved by:

• Open up ‘Playback Devices’

• Navigate to the Advanced tab and you will be able to see a bunch of options for bit depth and sample rate.
• You will just have to keep trying each one until one of them  fixes the problem.

MENU NOT SHOWING

You may encounter an error where you can’t see the menu once you start up the game. This issue can be fixed by clearing the Origin cache.

A Redistributable Package (DirectX) Was Not Installed Successfully

Some players have reported  that they encounter this error when trying to install the game but the installation ends up failing. You can fix the error message by going to the DirectX folder inside of the game folder .

CRASHING ISSUES

If you’ve been encountering a problem where the game keeps crashing, it’s most likely an issue with the latest Nvidia drivers. Just roll back to a previous version and this should fix this issue for you. You can also try to verify the integrity of the files downloaded in Steam to check if all the files have downloaded correctly. Additionally, you may find that the problem is caused because of problems with the VRAM. Just set this to lower settings and the game should work properly.

If you find that the problem still persists, then it may be a problem with your PSU (Power Supply Unit). This may be because the PSU is unable to supply enough power to the GPU and CPU which will result in the game crashing. You can try changing the PSU to fix this problem.

CONTROLLER NOT WORKING

Some of you may be facing a problem where your controller is not working in the game. This is a problem that can be solved easily simply by going to your Steam settings and checking which controller is selected. If what is selected is an Xbox 360 pad, then you can try changing to simply Xbox controller. This should fix the issue for you.

LOW FPS AND STUTTERING

This is quite a strange problem and occurs  when you are playing the game using a controller. For now, the easiest way to fix this issue is  to simply play the game using a keyboard  and mouse.

CHARACTER FLICKERING

To fix this, just update to the latest version of DirectX.

BLACK SCREEN FIX

If you’re encountering a black screen when you run the game, then it’s most likely because the game’s default resolution is set higher than your monitor’s native resolution. To fix this problem, just press ALT + ENTER to bring the game to windowed mode. Following this, change the game’s resolution to your monitor’s native resolution. This should fix the problem.

DUAL MONITOR FIX

Some players using dual monitors have encountered  an issue where the game only displays on one monitor and not the other. For now, to fix the issue just use ALT + ENTER to bring the game to windowed mode and following this, you should be able to see the game appear on both monitors. Now, make it fullscreen mode and the game will still appear on both monitors.

ASSETS OPTION GREYED OUT

If you have this problem even though it shows that 4K textures are installed, then there is a solution.  To fix the problem, you need to install the 4K textures as Steam may be incorrectly showing that they are already installed. In Steam, just tick the box for the 4K Textures DLC and it should automatically begin downloading. This will resolve the problem for you.

Note: Given that the wide range of PC hardware out there, the fixes mentioned here may or may not work for you. But it’s worth giving them a shot since these have worked for players who own the PC version of Final Fantasy 15.

UNTRUSTED SYSTEM FILE ERROR

If you are experiencing the Untrusted System File C:Windows/System32/safeips64.dll error in the game, then it’s most likely because your anti-virus is interfering with the game and preventing it from working properly. To get rid of this problem, simply add the game folder as an exception in your anti- virus software’s settings.

BLACK SCREEN

If your game is experiencing problems with a black screen when you try to launch, it is likely because the game’s default resolution is higher than your monitor’s native resolution. To fix this, press ‘ALT+ENTER’ to bring the game to windowed mode, and then change the game’s resolution to whatever resolution you want to, as long as it is not higher than the TV’s native resolution.

FATAL ERROR

If you receive this error, just open ‘Run’ by pressing the Windows Button along with ‘R’. Now, type in “%localappdata%” and hit enter and you’ll see a bunch of folders there. If you see a Dragon Ball FighterZ folder there, then just delete this folder to resolve the issue.

If the above method doesn’t work, then there’s another solution that might work for you. First just go to the Steam folder for the game. Next, download all the DirectX files and just paste them in the Win64 folder. This should fix the issue for you.

MEMORY COULD NOT BE READ  ERROR

This is quite a complicated error and it could be caused by a number of issues. If this is the case, then you can try and increase your computer’s virtual memory. To do this, just right-click ‘My Computer’ and then go to the ‘Advanced System Settings’ tab and then select ‘settings’. Once again, click on the ‘Advanced’ tab and then click the ‘change’ button under the Virtual Memory section. Hopefully, this will fix the issue for you.

You might find that the issue still persists. One reason might be that your drivers are outdated, so make sure you update your drivers in case you’re facing this problem.

Note: Given that the wide range of PC hardware out there, the fixes mentioned here may or may not work for you. But it’s worth giving them a shot since these have worked for players who own the PC version of Dragon Ball FighterZ.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is basically the kind of game that you want to play with your entire family; resultantly, it is the kind of game that more people would want to buy on consoles rather than on PC.

That said, there is, of course, always the possibility that you run into some problems- this kind of thing can be hard to avoid given the sheer variance in PC builds that there is. So if that happens to you, never fear- we’ll help.

GAME CRASHES
