XBOX ONE DevMode UWP memory leak

Hello, I'm testing my UWP game on Windows 10 and XBOX ONE, the same game build consume different memory between PC and Console.

Console continue consume memory during the game execution istead the same PC version doesn't has this problem, in the script code I'm using also System.GC.Collect() function.

On Console after 1.1 GB of memory consumption the game is closed, probably is the DevMode memory limit, does anyone know this kind of problem ? Thank you very much, Best regards…

 

Hello, I'm using

Unity 2019.1.10f1
Visual Studio Community 2017 15.9.14
XBOX ONE X Dev Mode July 2019 OS VERSION 10.0.18362.5047

This is my build configuration :

When I start the same UWP game in the same time on XBOX ONE and PC WINDOWS 10 the memory consumption in both main menu is different, on PC 314 MB on XBOX 724 MB :

This is the main menu :

When I play the game match on both platform in the same time the memory consumption on PC 386 MB on XBOX 1.1 GB :

This is the game match :

When the game match start my script code load the players texuters from the resources folder and write the number on each Tshirt.

Before load each player texture from the resources folder the script destroy the existing texture and after all call the garbage collector function like this :

//Material textures
private Texture2D TextureLabel = null;
private Texture2D TextureNormal = null;

//All the model material existing texture are destroyed
if(this.TextureLabel != null) GameObject.Destroy(this.TextureLabel );
if(this.TextureNormal != null) GameObject.Destroy(this.TextureNormal);

//The new textures are loaded
TextureLabel = Texture2D.Instantiate((Texture2D)Resources.Load("UsaTexture1M"));
TextureNormal = Texture2D.Instantiate((Texture2D)Resources.Load("UsaNormal1M" ));

//...write number on Tshirt and then apply the modification on texture
TextureLabel.Apply();

//Update the material of each player's model
this.GetComponentInChildren<Renderer>().material.SetTexture("_MainTex", TextureLabel);
this.GetComponentInChildren<Renderer>().material.SetTexture("_BumpMap", TextureNormal);

//And then free the allocated memory
Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets();
System.GC.Collect();

Seems that destroy texture or UnloadUnusedAssets doesn't works on XBOX ONE Dev Mode.

I can't test it on XBOX ONE Retail mode and I don't know if in Retail mode works properly until I will publish an update of my game.

Sadly I can't publish an update of my game until this issue https://forum.unity.com/threads/uwp-twice-xrsettings-enabled-true-crash-and-exit-game.602755/ will be fixed on the latest Unity version, please let me know your opinion, Thank you very much, Cheers...

PS: my UWP game on Windows 10 doesn't has the memory leaks problem, the game works around 400 MB and has a short peak when the new textures are loaded, on XBOX ONE Dev mode when I reach over 1.1 GB the game is closed due to the Dev Mode limits...

 

Yes, you are right, I have found the developer mode settings as "Game" and now I can properly test my videogame on XBOX ONE in Dev Mode.

During the game the commit memory stays around 1.1-1.3 GB and the game doesn't close, I have also discovered that if I run the game in Visual Studio as remote Debug, istead of run without debugging, I can go over app 1 GB limits .

Thank you a lot also for your intersting on my XR issue, I hope to publish soon a new update of uVolley, Cheers...

 

Hi, I have some memory problems.

How I can check it I configured your game as "Game" in the developer mode settings?

 

Never mind, I just figure it out. For those who have some problem: select the app in the console, press the back button, and go to view details.
