These crashes have all occurred after the most recent update. Before that I had logged roughly 40 hours without a crash.

BUG REPORTING GUIDE

Please share your game logs, game saves, crash dumps, and DxDiag. These are essential for diagnosing and fixing bugs.

HOW TO FIND LOGS

Game logs are located here:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\R5\Saved\Logs

Server logs are located here:
R5\Builds\WindowsServer\R5\Saved\Logs

To get there, open Steam, find Windrose in your library, right-click it, then go to Manage → Browse local files. From there, archive the files in the Logs folder and share them with us.

Please name your logs in a way that describes the problem, for example: Crashedwhile_fighting_Dodo.log

HOW TO FIND SAVES

Your saves are located here:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\R5\Saved\SaveProfiles
Please close the game before archiving your saves!

If you are playing on a dedicated server:
• Stop both the client and the dedicated server.
• Find and archive your server logs and world save.

Dedicated server logs are located here:

To get there, open Steam, find Windrose Dedicated Server in your library, right-click it, then go to Manage → Browse local files (or go to the folder where your Windrose Dedicated Server is stored).

Please close the dedicated server before archiving your saves.

I was playing co-op connected to a friend.

#

Ive been having these crashes irrespective of what's happening in game. One has been in my base moving items around. One crash has been after naval combat and boarding. One has been during naval battle. One was during a fast travel from ship to a player placed fast travel

do you have any mods installed?

viral apex

Nope, no mods. Standard install. I've backed up my character, deleted, and am currently reinstalling. Will post an update if anything changes.

I could suggest to try the following:

  • disable post processing in settings
  • disable framgen if you have it enabled

Seems that all of these steps do not apply to me. I have 64gb of ram, not overclocked or hitting high temperatures. Already scaled to 65% and consistantly hit 60 frames (limited). When the game starts, I'll consistantly have 60 frames and it will slowly worsen over time until I'm fluctuating heavily between 60 to 40. Eventually after these fluctuations, it will crash.
