BioShock Infinite Patch Solves AMD Processor Lock-ups

Good news AMD users, BioShock Infinite has been patched to hopefully fix some lock-ups you have been getting.

The release announcement on Virtual Programming's github was short and to the point:
Quote8 July 2015 09:28 BST - New version available, Steam BuildID 655022

This build should address the lockups that were mostly being seen on AMD processors.


I've actually had lock-ups on Intel, so maybe this will ease them for me as well.

Bioshock: Infinite for me has run without problems, apart from the fact that saves don't sync using Steam Cloud! More than annoying.

Great! I bought it when the Linux version was first released, but only played a little over 3 hours of it because of the unpredictable freezes. The bit that I played was very promising, though. Really hope it'll work flawlessly now.

i fixed the freezes with taskset -c 0,2,4 %command% into steam options..

but great to see official fix

That's good news. I was doing the same thing as @Xpander for all the VP ports, but it's nice to see they're fixing these things. Hopefully they'll apply it to Spec Ops as well because it had the same issue.

The game doesn't start for me since this update :-( The game was fine until this update with my nvidia gtx 770

Loads fine for me on my 970. Any terminal output?

I have this error :

QuoteERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
./bioshock.i386: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64


Still have the files in the directories. Strange i didn't have the error before.

I was having lots of freezing issues even with those taskset workarounds. Hopefully this will make the experience better.

Funny, I don't really remember having any freezes until yesterday, which started to happen every time I tried to play. Then the patch was released today :P

I played for a long half an hour yesterday and indeed I didn't experience any freezes like I used to have like every 20 min or so. FPS is quite stable for me. Catalyst 15.7.
