EDProfiler - A New Display Switcher/Robust Settings Profiler/Switcher/Detector!

Good news everyone...

I got tired of the profiler software giving me a crash window on each boot, so I dropped into troubleshootjng mode. I knew it wasn't the video card or drivers because I'd replaced my 980TI with a Titan X-P and upped the GPU drivers to the latest version. Still had the same issue.

Went through all my installed programs and uninstalled everything I was either not using or rarely using. Turned out to be the ASUS programs that had come with my motherboard. Not sure which one on this list was the issue, but removing these sped up my machine as well as an added bonus.

ASUS AI Suite II V2.04.01
ASUS Ai Charger+ V3.00.08
ASUS Update(EZ Update)
ASUS DIGI+ Power Control
ASUS EPU V1.03.22
ASUS Fan Xpert V1.01.15
ASUS My Logo V1.03.06
ASUS Probe II V1.00.51
ASUS System Information V1.02.17
ASUS TurboV EVO V1.01.53

No issues with profiler since. FYI.

I had all this crap installed also got rid of all of it and definitely notice a performance improvement on my system. I think a lot of this stuff is gimmick
 
Yeah, Asus are well known for that. My latest motherboard, Z170 Pro Gaming, got the same. Actually, I never install the crap by default - I just install the drivers for the motherboard on upgrading; the other stuff I leave.

Cannot Start Application error

Happy New Year Dr Kaii. :)

I've installed EDProfiler and have tried to open it but I get the following error message:

I've tried reinstalling a couple of times and have read through this thread for a possible fix but I haven't come across anything that's helped.

I would be very grateful if you might be able to help me get it working please. I have a copy of the Error Log (txt file) if that'll help diagnose the problem?

I apologise now if it's something obvious, I'm not the most technical of persons! :S

With thanks in anticipation.

Kind regards,

Can't remember, I know I had that once. Find all the related files somewhere in your appdata and make sure to delete them (will have to do a search), and try installing from Internet Explorer (not chrome or firefox). LMK if it works

Thank you very much for your quick reply.

I did as you suggested but I'm having the same problem unfortunately.

Email me the error report kaii@dr.com

Seeing as I'm not getting the error though, it's hard for me to try and fix. I would go through the errors and google them and see what comes up and try?
 
May I request for the next update you throw a try/catch around path access and on a fail revert the saved path to blank and ask the user to readd a valid one? I clicked some option that requested me to select the ED install folder and I had misclicked without realising it and now it's throwing unahandled exceptions on anything that tries to read/set data and reset does not work either. Even uninstalling and reinstalling did not clear the information :/

Is the path set in the registry or is there a config file in an obscure directory somewhere? I'll edit the path manually for now if you tell me where to find it :)
 
Hey DrKaii, big fan, first time caller.

I guess this is a feature request. The Display combobox LOV with four display options... that Display setting is really all I wanted out of this tool and it just isn't quite cutting it. Any chance you could populate it dynamically or just add "Quinary" and "Senary" to it?

Seconded - I installed in a non-standard path and I get exceptions also. Everything seems to work though.
 
Thanks for building this, it looks great. Unfortunately, it crashes the first time I hit apply, and then crashes on startup every time after that. I have the option to click "continue" on a dialogue that says "unhandled exceptions" "There are multiple root elements Line 4, position 6." I tried the troubleshooting tips, erased settings and reinstalled, same thing happened again. Any ideas?

Yes, delete your GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml from ...user\appdata\frontier developments\options\graphics
 
I have updated EDProfiler again to v2.2.1.3!

3 changes:

1. You can now create a list of programs to run when you hit Apply for each profile! So if you switch your audio source with something like nircmd, for example, when you change from 2D to VR, you can now add the .bat files to the relevant profiles and have them run as you hit Apply (checkbox has to be checked)

2. You can now unlock the Model Draw Distance to go above the default range. Setting the slider to max with the "unlock" box ticked sets it to 2.0, which almost completely eliminates pop up. Powerful computers only!

3. I wrote some code to give you a dialog box if your GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml is corrupt (not sure why but this happens to a few people here and there, see 2 posts up) with some options on how to deal with it (either delete and recreate, or lets you fix it yourself)

Enjoy!

Let me know if there are any bugs in this new code and I will fix ASAP

I'm a sucker for draw distance. Thanks Doc. :)

Excellent changes, thanks. I didn't know the draw distance value was "customizable". I will turn it up to 11 ;)
