I am getting game crashes at random times, and at random moments. I have had a crash on the loading screen before I can even click play, while trying to build a building, running and mining. I have the latest version of my drivers, have tried removing the user settings file and still nothing. I have a similar issue to another user in the logs where it says "GameThread timed out waiting for RenderThread after 120.00 seconds" I have attached the error log, save files and DXDiag info. No screenshots as the game is crashing

Do you have Frame Generation enabled ?
fickle bramble
I tried both settings. I saw on another post it recommended manually setting it to off/auto in the game settings and that also didn't help
Also I just tried fullscreen mode and that also didn't work

Any updates? I have tried some of the more recent things include AMD enhanced and just tried to play again now and it froze on the main screen.

Seems to be GPU issue
@limber sedge can you please help with that?
Is your video card overclocked by any chance?
Or have you tried capping fps at 60/disabling framegen?
fickle bramble
No overclocking, have set it to 60FPS, frame generation is off. Render res is 50%

This may be an issue that some users are experiencing where an unknown shader freezes the GPU. I'm looking into it.

@fickle bramble Then it seems to be shader issue on our side, we're investigating fix
Sorry for bad experience :(
fickle bramble
All good. The fact you are responding to people and working on issues is more than some game makers! And to be honest the 2 hours of the demo I played got me completely hooked so I am happy to wait for it to be fixed

is there a place we can empty and rebuild the shaders?

is there a place we can empty and rebuild the shaders?
Yes, you can try launching the game with -clearPSODriverCache option once.
Alternatively, if you're running an Nvidia GPU,
- Open NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Shader Cache Size > Set to Off > Click Apply
- Reboot your PC
- Open NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Shader Cache Size > Set to Default > Click Apply
- Start the game

Doesnt hurt, give it a try and report back

Just reporting, also suffering from this exact problem. It's tottally erratic. Tuesday for example I streamed 8 hours and didn't crash once, and today (nothing changed, no windows updates or software updates) I crashed maybe 16 times.
Nothing seems to be triggering it, like, there is no action I do to isolate the problem, it just randomly happens. I could just be sat at the dock completely motionless, and it'll crash.
Should point out i've experienced this same problem in the playtest and the Demo.

Its better to make a new bug report thread, if you experience crashes, so we don't mix up anything important
