All manufacturers recently released updates to add official support for The Finals, so that might just do the trick!
Now, this is every manufacturer’s support page, which allows you to download updated video drivers:
Underclock Your CPU
Sometimes, the dreaded “MISSING_ANGELSCRIPT_CALLSTACK Discovery” error happens due to your CPU hitting 100% utilization. This then leads to overheating and thermal throttling, causing crashes.
Sadly, underclocking your CPU is a process that varies a lot for every computer, so we can’t really cover them all in this article.
However, the basics of it just involve rebooting your PC into the BIOS and setting a lower Ratio Multiplier or Clock Multiplier. For example, setting it to 48 if it’s 50 by default.
This will slightly lower your CPU’s top speeds but can prevent thermal throttling and give your PC better stability.
If you’ve already overclocked your PC before, then you should just return to default settings and remove your overclock settings.
Intel users with modern CPUs can also use the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility for easy configuration. You won’t need to tinker around with the BIOS then!
NVIDIA Users: Rollback to 546.01 Drivers
If you’re an NVIDIA GPU user and you already did the first two potential fixes with no luck, you might need to revert to an older driver.
For some reason, some users report that the 546.01 drivers in particular are optimal and fixed the “MISSING_ANGELSCRIPT_CALLSTACK Discovery” error.
You can find the 546.01 drivers here!
Just choose to downgrade when installing and you should be set!
Alternatively, follow NVIDIA’s official instructions to uninstall the current driver and then try installing 546.01.
Wait For Updates
If nothing worked for you and you’ve already verified that your computer is in working order, then you may just need to wait for The Finals to receive updates.
Remember, the game just recently launched. The game had Beta test periods previously, but computers are extremely varied and fickle.
It’s no surprise that sometimes there are hardware and software configurations that end up having trouble with new games!
On the upside, The Finals is a free-to-play game, so you at least didn’t have to spend any money on it.
