Nachtschicht Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 The game is still unplayable for me, crashing after just a few seconds. Reading the forums I see that I'm not the only person with this problem. Is there any activity to solve this? Can I help with additional Information? I would really like to play this game but this gets frustrating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UluenX Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 After the recent 2GB patch, I was crashing on load - something to do with NVidia driver I think (even though it's up to date). I just kept trying until it eventually let me in. Previous to the patch I was crashing due to low virtual memory (Dual.exe was using my entire page file even after increasing it to 32GB). After taking the shuttle to Sanctuary, I haven't had either problem. If you are still on Alioth in the cities, I recommend finishing up your activities there as soon as you are able and then leaving. The game seems to stabilize once you are out of the crowded areas. One other idea - if you are actually loading into the game and then crashing - you might want to choose the respawn option before you load into game. It will respawn you at your origin point. I had to do that once to get out of a crash loop. Nebohtes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachtschicht Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Since the game tends to crash even faster after the last two patches (most of the time I don't even get to see any ingame-graphics), I don't see any chance to do that. Even before the patches I was only rarely able to walk more than a few metres before it crashed and it probably would have taken me about 50 gamestarts just to get straight to the shuttle. So now I wait and frequently start the game to see if it loads a new patch before I try to log in again. It's a shame that there seems to be no statements at all from novaquark what they're working on, not even patch-notes (or at least I didn't find any).

CreditCain Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Check the min specs. Are they at or above them? If they are below then that is likely your issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachtschicht Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 still crashing immediately, is there ANY advice, what to look for when reinstalling of the game, newest graphic-drivers and stopping anythin unnecessary doesn't help? BIOS-Settings? Windows Updates or Versions? whatever...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UluenX Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Start > eventvwr.exe > System > Filter by Error and Warning. Find the entry that coincides with your crash. Could try posting it here to see if anyone knows what to do about it. If you don't see an entry in System that matches the time of your crash, you can also look in the 'Application' log.

Nachtschicht Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 Finally, I'm able to play the game! Wether the latest patch, a recent windows update or me disconnecting my oculus rift was the reason, I can not say, since all of this happened just before my first successfull login. I just wanted to try it without the rift, but when I restarted my PC, windows installed an update and when I started the game, it downloaded a new patch. Now I can start the game and when it works, it's absolutely stable, played 4h and no problem at all. Sometimes it still crashes after loading, but until now I just tried it again and it worked. I still play with the absolute minimum graphics settings, when I tried to activate shadows on low, it again kept crashing after loading. It seems like anything above just calculating simple voxels/elements is too much at the moment. I hope in the future I will be able to enjoy better graphics, but for now I'm happy that I can play the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirIppo Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I'm crashing right after load sometimes but also immediately after i switch tools. It could be fine for a while but once i switch to a different tool it crashes. I'm underground right now.So i log in and it crashes and i can't jump high enough to get out.Can't mine because it crashes if i try to switch to my mining tool.

Can you force respawn? And does that fix it? If you don't want to respawn out, you'll probably need to raise a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is oculus, they simply can unplug it when playing Dual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game actually loads up but then i get disconnected for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the same here, never had an issue before but a few days ago my game fatally crashed my entire pc. I had to reinstall and now every time I try to log in it crashed at least 4-5 before I’m able to log in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanoDot Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 After years of playing DU (started Day 1 of pre-alpha), crash-on-login is the "new normal" for me, lol After 4-6 crashes on login, it stabilises and runs fine for the rest of my session...

Guvnor Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 After seamless gameplay for about a month, I too am getting fatal errors immediately after game start. Just thought I would add my voice to the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
