Vulkan cause my game to crash on Adreno GPU devices

Unity Engine

Hello there,

Some of my game users are encountering game crashes on devices from different manufacturers with an Adreno GPU. Adreno 610, 618, 640, and maybe others.

I use:
Unity Editor 2022.3.22f1.
URB version 14.0.10

Stack Trace is collected by Unity Cloud Diagnostics:

Additional info about this bug: (for MY case)

  • This bug is related to Visual Effects Graph when using Vulkan on Android devices that have certain models of Adreno Graphic processors.

  • The bug causes the whole screen to freeze while the game still runs in the background (audio and touch working as expected).

  • Every VFX Graph system implementing a Single Burst or Periodic Burst spawn block will cause the bug by the end of the first burst’s lifetime.

  • VFX Graph systems implementing a Constant Spawn Rate spawn block Runs as expected.

  • VFX Graph systems implementing a Constant Spawn Rate spawn block will cause the bug if the spawn stops by any method (stop event, setting the spawn rate to 0, or turning the spawn block off)

  • In VFX Graph systems that implement multiple spawn block types, if the Constant Spawn Rate block starts spawning particles first, then the Burst Spawn blocks will work as expected for as long as the Constant Spawn Rate block is active.

I couldn’t think of a workaround for this bug. I hope someone does.

Hello @Alien_Eye ! Did you find a fix for this? I have the same issues, same outcomes that you mentioned, but I am not even using vfx graph, im on Unity 2022.3 LTS

Hello @abhishekdtlabz,
No, I didn’t find a solution for this issue, I hope you find out what causes this problem in your project.
