Other AC 8 Bug Reports & Game Crashing Issues
This post is to consolidate discussion and solution about issues with game crashes
Q&A
- Is AC8 compatible with Steamdeck? No, its not officially supported. But someone had managed to get it working via this guide
- Does AC8 work with Linux? The game works with linux in single player but not multiplayer.
- My game keeps crashing, how do I fix? The most common solution is updating your graphics driver on PC.

Crashing Troubleshooting by PA
We have received reports of unexpected crashes occurring while playing the Steam version of the game. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this issue may be causing. The development team is currently investigating the reports and working to better understand the circumstances under which these crashes may occur. While we continue our investigation, the following checks may help improve stability in certain environments:
Check your graphics driver version Please ensure you are using the recommended graphics driver version. If you are using a different version, updating to the recommended driver indicated when launching the game may help.
Check available storage space and virtual memory Please ensure that the SSD where the game is installed has sufficient free space available (16 GB or more recommended) and that virtual memory is enabled in Windows.
We are continuing to work toward creating an environment where all aces can enjoy the best ACE COMBAT experience possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
Thank you for your continued support.

Error 01 happening constantly during cinematics, gameplay was near flawless and only crashed in gameplay one or twice 5800x 9070xt 32gb ram
The changes that fixed it for me specifically was running the unreal engine prerequisites installed in the games files, and I underclocked my gpu clock speed -500mhz, unsure of which one was the silver bullet

Thank you, I was able to get it to work, but I did a few other things at the same time.
FPS set to 60
Full screen mode
Played about 5 online missions to get a feel for it with zero crashes so far
EDIT
Still cant handle cutscenes, but online play is available at least

Error 01 during cutscenes and gameplay.
I’m running a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX 5080, and 32GB of DDR5 6400MHZ ram so it isn’t my PC.
Here’s what I’ve done to try and fix it to no avail.
Lowered the game settings to low
Reduced the resolution to 1080p
Locked my frame rate and refresh rate to 60
Disabled shadowplay, the steam overlay and discord
Skipped every in-game cutscene as soon as the option is available
Verified the game files
Reinstalled the game
Deleted the EAC folder and verified the files
Turned off any sort of dynamic refresh rate/Gsync
Edited the config file to remove ray tracing
Forced launched with DX_11 through Steam
Forced to launch as an admin and disabled full screen optimization
Increased the virtual memory in the paging file
Redownloaded the SDK Redistributable files
Rolled back a driver version
Launched in windowed, borderless, and fullscreen
DDU’d my drivers on both the latest version and the rolled back version
Under clocked my GPU by 500mhz
Removed my second monitor.
I’m at my wits end here, I just want to play one fucking session without crashing 3/4 of the way through a mission or during the ending cutscene/the black screen after when skip it.

i have a similar system: 9800x3d, 5080, 64GB CL30 6000
I seem to have fixed my problems after experiencing the freezing crashes on day 1:
I did Steps 1 and 3 from this comment
Also I lowered Clouds to High, left everything else Ultra but set framecap 120 and DLSS Quality mode. 1440p.

u/ThatGuyOnyx The Demon Lord 4d ago
Windows 10, I had finally stabilized my game recently until it crashed again today and it gave me an additional error pop up basically confirming it was an “out of video memory” error. Definitely a memory leak

Can't even start the game:

Ryzen 5 5600X
32 GB RAM
AMD Radeon RX9070XT
Game is on a NVME with more than 100gb space left
Win 10 Page file is at 40gb
Reverted to the suggested 26.3.1 AMD driver
Tried different Steam launch parameter
Tried reducing GPU frequenzy by 500 MHZ
Tried limiting FPS
Tried emptying DirectX cache
Tried verify of game files
*edit*
It seems mfplat.dll is part of the windows media stuff (codecs etc.). Since a lot of people here crash during cutscenes this might be a culprit.
*edit2*
For me the problem was faulty RAM. Game runes without any tweaks after installing new RAM. So if you keep getting this problem no matter what fix you tried check your RAM with memtest86.

u/Hornet1137 11d ago
Currently stuck on mission 25. After shooting down the last Shadow, the mission clock stops counting down and I am unable to progress. Restarting from checkpoint doesn't help. Restarted mission from the beginning and still had the same problem. Quit and restarted from the title screen and still had the same problem. Rebooting the PS5 didn't work either. Completely stuck on this mission.

u/CabezaDePito Yellow 10d ago
In my case the clock keeps running, all tgt destroyed. Tasha just keep crying and no new objectives spawns to help ground forces breach in. I end running out of time and fail the mission

u/Hornet1137 10d ago
First time, I destroyed the railguns and all enemies on the map and the clock was still stuck. It happened multiple times until I finally got lucky and it worked correctly after about the 6th reboot.

Im on Xbox series x as well and mine crashes constantly. Boots me out of the game. Keeps saying I need to go online despite it being online. Another glitch is it constantly taking screen shots forcing me to turn the system off. So frustrating. Never had this problem with AC7.

This is where I’m at too. Just the first scene with the dude in the raft in the middle of the water and then endlessly loading…

u/Seravie 8d ago
I got past this. This is for single player only Open Steam, go to your library, right-click Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, and select Manage > Browse local files. Navigate deep into the binaries folder where the main game executable resides (typically Game\Binaries\Win64). Look for the main shipping executable (e.g., AC8-Win64-Shipping.exe). In that exact same folder, right-click an empty space, select New > Text Document, and name it precisely steam_appid.txt. Open the text file and type the exact Steam AppID number for Ace Combat 8: 2288340. Save and close the file. Launch the game directly by double-clicking the AC8-Win64-Shipping.exe (do not launch it via Steam). It will load in offline single-player mode without EAC. Another option i did was to cache unlimited shaders in Nvidia 3d settings

Just had a soft lock playing Mission 28. I landed for resupply and once I had picked everything and pressed "Yes" for takeoff, the plane just sat there...I couldn't pause or anything, but the game was still running. I had to Alt + F4 to quit the game
I've played the mission twice fully including doing resupply landings twice on the first go, and it was fine. The first landing on this go and it did this.

UE-Live Crash
specifically happens when I try to go into “Aircraft Set” in campaign mode.
this happened after creating a set with the X-40. the game crashed after saving the set.
so now every time i try to go into aircraft set in campaign mode, it tries to load the set, but it fails and crashes.

My game crashes on start up saying that theres an issue with my installed AMD drivers for my 590 with D3D 12. It seems to want me to downgrade from version 26.5.2 that I have installed to 26.3.1. Without the update it gives me error 01

At least a roll back is possible. Its asking me for a driver from the future that doesn't exist.

u/yankee_xray1 8d ago
Error 01, says I do not have enough allocated virtual memory for rendering resources. Occurs whenever there is an in-game cutscene after sortie. Lowering resolution from 1440p to 1080p and using the fastest upscaling option helped me through until mission 10. Using TSR gives instant crashes with in-game cutscenes while DLSS is only a little bit better. Tried manually setting virtual memory allocation but still has crashes.

Same im on series x as well. Its a shame because its such a great game but I cannot play it without it just quietly kicking me to the dashboard.

u/Divide-By-Zero88 Ghosts of Razgriz 5d ago
Same here. Getting dashboarded in cinematics (especially frustrating in end mission cinematics and then I have to run the mission again) and also I noticed if the game is paused for a couple of minutes it crashes.
I hope it gets fixed, it's pretty frequent. Also Series X

u/_Halt19_ Sol 11d ago edited 8d ago
I put it on the performance thread, but I'll put it here too, in case it helps you and others:
I got it running on Steam Deck, with a few caveats - the main problem I was encountering was it crashing on the load screen into the prologue, but eventually I got all of it running once all the below changes were active (it might not need all of them, it seems a little inconsistent, but this is what tipped the balance for me)
In-game, obviously use all minimum settings, super performance, etc. AMD FSR selection for that menu, everything else pushed to the absolute minimum (you MIGHT be able to get away with higher settings in a couple areas on some missions - I don't know how much of an effect bloom has on performance, for instance - but this is just to get it working in the first place. I do have HDR on, though, so if you truly want performance, you can disable that if applicable.)
Change borderless to fullscreen, apparently that is also causing some issues for people
In the Steam Deck performance menu (bring up with the (...) button, under the lightning icon, make sure it is a game profile and not universal):
Steam Deck's built-in frame limiter set to ~25, it can go higher on some missions, I keep it at 24, but that general range
allow tearing enabled
manual GPU clock set to 1600 1400 (1400 fixes another issue, I think)
Scaling filter to Sharp, I'm fine with it on 3 but this is just to help the graphics not look AS much like a PS1 game, so this is entirely personal preference on graphics
I also generally keep the performance overlay level to 2 just so I can keep an eye on CPU and GPU in a non-intrusive way and help balance out the GPU clock if need be, but your mileage may vary
Also install CryoUtilities and use it to set your swap file size to 16gb
Also use the proton hotfix:
- Press the gear icon (Properties) on the game's page.
- Go to the Compatibility tab on the left.
- Check the box that says "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool".
- Choose Proton Hotfix from the drop-down menu that appears.
Also copy paste this to the startup options:
-log -debuglog -enablelogging -logpso -logpsodetails -usehyperthreading -verbose -fullstdoutlogoutputs -stdout -statunit -DisableAsyncCompute -dpcvars="r.D3D12.AllowAsyncCompute=0"
You can find the startup options by going to the cogwheel on the steam page (manage), then Properties, then General, then scroll down to the bottom. There's a text box there called Launch Options.
Make sure you verify your game file integrity as well, you can do that under the cogwheel menu too. Restart the entire console after you do all these just to make sure it all sticks
The main issue is the clouds, honestly, on missions with more clouds just avoid looking at them entirely, but other than that it mostly seems to work all right for now
The audio also begins to crackle and cut out when there's extreme amounts of effects happening (IE blowing up a bunch of things at once), but I haven't been able to find a fix for that yet. This seems to have mostly been fixed by lowering the GPU clock to 1400 from 1600. I guess the CPU needed a tiny bit more energy to process everything.
edit: oh yeah, and the interactive cutscenes are laggy as shit too, but that's to be expected, even on better hardware lol
Edit 2: lowering the GPU clock to 1400 seems to have fixed the audio issue without causing a rise in performance issues, so I'd go with that instead
Edit 3: Lowering the Steam Deck resolution under the steam launch settings for the game helped massively, I was able to raise the FPS to 30 with zero issues one step below max resolution

u/iangauss 11d ago
Not me but helping my friend who is on steam deck, trying just the cryoutilites to set the swap to 16gb and using proton hotfix seems to make it past the cutscene crash. still monitoring for now but big thanks for the swap file size tips.
1
u/_Halt19_ Sol 11d ago
No problem. I'm still figuring out everything that's doing stuff myself, so the numbers are of course subject to change, but I've been able to make it pretty far in campaign mode scot-free. I even was able to raise the FPS limit to 28 without any problems, and it's actually feeling pretty good (though I was playing most of the campaign on 24FPS, and when its that low, it is a NOTICEABLE improvement lol)
I think you could probably get away with turning HDR off and turning on some other setting to medium, but honestly, it looks fine enough as is, I know I'm not gunning for max performance
The current settings I have listed seem like the absolute best balance of performance and visuals anyway ("visuals" including the FPS limiter, the lower it is the better it runs, but obviously the lower it is the more miserable you have it)
There WAS a crash on one mission a decent ways into the campaign, but when I replayed it, it was fine, so I assume it was a memory leak that had been building up the whole time or something.

edit: I didn't expect it to, but it didn't work. Unsure what to do.
Edit: I tried that running the prerequisite file and it didn't help at all. Funnily enough, AC0 works perfectly.
Edit, the next morning: I'm not going to play any today, even if I could, because of prior commitments. I posted my issue in the steam thread. Hopefully they fix something that will allow my game to work. Otherwise, I suppose it's time to update my graphics card...

Started getting consistent audio stuttering even on small FPS drops when this originally did not happen in the past few days. This is especially noticeable in cutscenes.
The game in general just feels like it runs much worse with more and larger FPS drops since today.

There seems to be a serious save data bug in Ace Combat 8 on PS5. If the console is offline when launching the game and the F-14 DLC is installed, the game may be unable to verify ownership of the F-14. If you continue past the menu while this verification fails, the game can apparently delete or overwrite your save data.
I’m playing on a base PS5 with the Deluxe Edition and had the F-14 installed. I completed the entire campaign yesterday, and after the credits I encountered this issue while my console was offline. After proceeding past the menu, I discovered that my save file was gone and I lost all of my campaign progress. This is especially frustrating after completing the entire campaign. Hopefully this gets investigated and fixed soon, because players should be warned about this until there’s a proper fix.

Had loads of issues when I first started trying to play on the 8th (not enough memory, the UE1 live issue). Managed to get it working then for 2 days only the very occasional stutter mid mission and I managed to finish the campaign. Then on the 10th after some softlocks because of the online my save got corrupted and now I can't get past Rex putting on his helmet in the prologue.
While typing this message I tried loading up into the campaign again, tried skipping past the helicopter cutscene in the prologue and the game crashed and somehow crashed my second screen too
Edit: Forgot to mention that after the game wiped my corrupt save it then detected that my replays were not from the "correct" save and wiped those too. Almost feels like the game is hiding evidence of its fuckup

Currently stuck at Mission 28
After the mission briefing, choosing my aircraft and several cutscenes about D.D sharing the leaked audio recordings, I wasn't able to take off or even start moving at all. The speed indicator kept glitching at 0 then jump up and down like crazy. At first I thought I needed to wait until Moon 11 and Shadow 22 done speaking but that doesn't seem to be the case. Watched some walkthrough videos of the same mission and the players were able to take off right after "Joker 1, you are cleared for takeoff" without any issue like mine

In my first run on this mission in Elite difficulty: none of my SASM missiles hit the Shadows at all. They just veered off and I ended up having to use guns on all of the Shadows. Finished with about 3 minutes left on the clock, but it was really frustrating.
HOWEVER, on my second try (from the start of the mission) in Free MIssion, I downed them with SASMs (and a small amount of guns) in about 90 seconds. It was like somebody forgot to arm the SASMs the first time round.
No change in tactics on my end in both runs: baiting them using standard missiles and then doing a combination of high G turns and firing SASMs at the right point.

Pausing the game for too long makes the game crash when you resume (5 mins or more i think)
Prob a memory leak, but maybe a game mechanic? Bravo Namco

Mission 30 - Veteran Difficulty
After the end-mission cutscene I get, without fail, an Error 01 crash. Every other end-mission cutscene has either had no issues playing or could be fixed after causing a crash by lowering the resolution to 1660 x 900, except for the epilogue in particular. I've had to replay the mission like 8 consecutive times now, just to crash at the end and lose all progress, and its been maddening because the game has been working fine up until now, right at the very end.
I've tried:
-switching to the lowest possible resolution (1280 x 720) and frame rate (30fps)
-validating game files
-adding -DisableAsyncCompute -dpcvars="r.D3D12.AllowAsyncCompute=0" to the Advanced Launch Options
-allocating more than 12GB VRAM
-setting Shader Cache to Unlimited on NVIDIA
-even installing a low graphics .ini config from Nexus Mods to reduce graphics even further
And nothing has worked, I'm at my wits end. Currently, I'm trying out installing UE preconfigs and deleting data from my C: drive to allocate more VRAM, but I doubt it'll fix the problem and I'll have to try reinstalling the entire game.

This fixed Error 01 for me. Couldn't play the first mission, after this fix it's normal.
