For almost two weeks now, following a Roblox Studio update, the Vulkan graphics option (which is the only renderer that provides good performance on my system) has been causing persistent issues.
As a result, I have been unable to develop in Studio for the past 10+ days, as the crashes and graphical issues make it extremely difficult to work.
The issues I am experiencing include:
- Visual glitches and screen tearing
- Frequent crashes when opening places
- Reduced performance compared to before the update
Things I have tried to resolve the issue:
- Installing a fresh copy of Roblox Studio, including deleting all Roblox-related folders
- Performing a clean installation of my graphics drivers
- Updating Windows to the latest version
- Updating my BIOS to the latest version
- Resetting all NVIDIA Control Panel settings
- Changing Studio’s graphics option to OpenGL (which eliminates the visual glitches and crashes, but results in extremely poor performance of around 20 FPS)
Below are examples of the issues I am encountering:
System specifications:
- Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-537Y (2023)
- 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11400H @ 2.70 GHz
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU
- 16 GB DDR4 RAM
- 256 GB Kingston NVMe SSD
This issue only started occurring after a recent Studio update. Vulkan was previously working normally on this system, and all other games and applications continue to function without any graphical issues.
This is a follow-up to my previous, similar bug report, but has been reposted in what I believe is the more appropriate category.
