Game crashes after selecting character
Nothing else going on, I literally select my character and then Unity Crash handler shows up and then they game crashes

Does the crash occur after you've made a character or when you pick a character slot to make?

peak cradle
#

I created the character

#

It crashes when it's supposed to load the world

gloomy onyx
#

The crash is when you hit enter world? Ok got it

peak cradle
#

Yes

gloomy onyx
#

Does the crash handler pop up right away? Does it take some time?

peak cradle
#

It take some time, during which i can hear the vents of my PC firing up

gloomy onyx
#

Gonna play 100 questions with you bear with me

peak cradle
#

It's ok

gloomy onyx
#

Yesterday a reported crash said that the game would just hang and when he clicked his mouse it would fade out the window and crash handler came up at that point

#

Are you experiencing something similar?

peak cradle
#

Yes, both with and without clicking

gloomy onyx
#

Ok so you've let it idle and it still crashes out on its own?

peak cradle
#

Yes

gloomy onyx
#

Darn! lol that was his fix

#

Have you tried windowed mode?

peak cradle
#

LEt me try

gloomy onyx
#

Just for troubleshooting, knock the graphics settings down a bit - your pc is more than capable of max but you never know

peak cradle
#

Tried both options, still happened

gloomy onyx
#

Is the game installed on your c drive or is it on a remote Hard drive?

peak cradle
#

It's on the G drive, which is an INTERNAL SSD with sata cable

gloomy onyx
#

Does your created character save between attempts or are you having to recreate every time

peak cradle
#

IT saves

gloomy onyx
#

For kicks, fire up the game and let it idle on the main menu

Go to the folder where the player log is, find ESSaveData, open charslot0 or 1 or wherever you made your character and where it says "Stowaway" or "Loadscene" (not sure which it'll say) change it to "Tutorial"

Save and close

Important to do this on the main menu so steam cloud doesn't overwrite

#

Then progress to the character select and try again

peak cradle
#

Well it's lasting longer than last time, but it's basically frozen on "Loadscene"

gloomy onyx
#

"Tutorial" was case sensitive, you got it capitalized right?

peak cradle
#

CurScene":"Tutorial"

gloomy onyx
#

Ok

#

Still frozen?

peak cradle
#

Yes, tho the crash handler didn't appear yet

gloomy onyx
#

It should be about a 1 sec load time in normal performance

#

You have me a bit stumped

peak cradle
#

Ok, NOW it crashed

gloomy onyx
#

Ok

#

Graphics drivers updated and all?

#

Not that this game is cutting the

#

Edge *

peak cradle
#

YEs it's all updated

gloomy onyx
#

So we've eliminated a lot of possibilities - the game is saving data, loading into a different scene still crashes, it's not a video resolution issue and it's definitely not a performance issue

#

By changing to tutorial load-in we eliminated almost all of the game scripts

#

Do you have any anti virus or guardian software running?

#

Maybe a strict windows security setting?

#

The game doesn't communicate to any remote servers except Steam

peak cradle
#

I'll try to disable it and run it again

#

Nothing

#

Oh ok.

I did thing I should have done before and made a clean re-instal of the game.

It loaded... and now I am falling into the void lol

gloomy onyx
#

Sorry got called away there

#

Oh because we moved your save
