#Game crashes every 30 min

Like the title says, I'm experiencing a very high level of full game crashes every 30 mins or so. it happens in various cars, but usually on raceroom raceway. I've validated the game files multiple times and even uninstalled and reinstalled the game, so I'm at a loss as to how to fix it. I realize there may not be an easy fix but if there is something in my crash files that helps point me in the right direction or at least helps yall pinpoint the if its a game issue or a me issue then im all ears. For now, 4 game crashes in 2 hours is just to much for the game to be playable, let alone enjoyable.

thanks

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

750 watt corsair power supply

maybe not the best, but i have friends with worse spec who run it fine. i also have zero issues in other games like AC, ACC, iracing, or even beamng. issue is just with race room and really since the graphics update.

What about available disk space, is there some free storage available?

Have you tried verifying the game's files in steam?

noble oak
#

At what moment did your game crash for each crash? qualify, practice, race. how many car was there what was happening before race, swtiching race mode, mid battle in garage, etc. how many car did you rcae?
For start reinstall Microsoft C++ 2010. ( I recommend uninstall, reset then install again. install both 32 and 64 bit version.)

After that check game without memory expo at base timing and see if there is any change or not.

Predominantly during practice as i rarely made it any farther. Its been happening on track at random points. Cars its happend in have been anything from DTM 2024 (i think), GTE porsche, P2 daytona, P1 minstrel, hillclimb merc, fx17, and fx90. Heck its happened even just in race monitor. Thats why i mentioned it been on raceroom raceway and seems to be time related, it doesnt seem to matter what car its been. Once my 30 minutes are up the game crashes. Only interesting thing is until i click on the close game button in the pop up box i can still see and hear other cars driving around on track.

Ill try reinstalling C++ thank you for the link.

Ive tried running memory at base clock and with XMP on just to try and narrow down the issue. I did not notice a change in game performance or the crashing

check if your pc is getting enough power. I've seen instances of crashes occuring because the PC can't supply enough power to run applications safely. I'd start with your power bar

While I understand this is frustrating, we also have to acknowledge that there are thousands of others who don't experience these kinds of crashes, so it can't be a general issue either, otherwise more people would report the same.

What's curious is that it seems to happen after a specific timeframe. There must be sth triggering this happening after that time that doesn't happen on most other systems.

Which brings me back to my question regarding available storage. While there appears to be ample space left, you mentioned the game isn't installed in the os partiton.

Where is it installed exactly and what are the drives/partitions involved set up like?

Where is your documents folder located?

Do you have onedrive activated? Same for Steamcloud?

Do you have replay recording activated? If so, I'd first try disabling that.

Any other software, drivers or similar running in the background while the game is running? Particularly antivirus or such scanners, or anything else that might trigger regular events every 30 minutes? If so, try disabling everything that isn't absolutely necessary for running the game.

having same issue as grey thanks for reply at least theres some activity in this post, thank you for info. if its any help i have 1.5tb free on my nvme drive. my crashes happen right in the middle of race i have all overlays turned of (radion/steam) i have disabled ingame recording also. only using windows firewall/defender. i have a suspicion it might be logitec ghub related. do you have a logitech wheel Gray?

floral wagon
#

Interesting, sounds like a lead.
Have you tried a clean un-/re-install?
Not a Logi user myself but I remember some people having all sorts of issues with ghub and some very awkward process was needed to actually get rid of all the driver elements before reinstalling.

Could you avoid it altogether, replace it with LGS, or does your wheel (which one precisely?) not work with that?

fathom venture
#

g29, yes fresh install i notied that when i try to bind steering other than default (already corectly binded) it looses center position. unfortunately without ghub installed no force feedback. whats LGS?

floral wagon
#

Logitech Gaming Software, ghub's predecessor, which is generally considered less error prone but has been phased out. It can still be used as a driver afaik, as long as the device is recognised. Might be worth a try, but I do remember people having to be very specific in the way they uninstalled ghub before being able to lgs.
I guess it'd be worth a try, if only to check if that changes anything re this specific issue...

I've had to deal with ghub myself and it was a massive PITA.

#

The post says you need to delete certain registry entries, but I don't think all of them are shown in the post.

#

I had to go and search for Logitech in the registry and then delete those as well. There's also more entries with abbreviations for Logitech in there, I believe.

#

And then I also had to look for folders of Logitech. Best of luck though, I spent 4 hours trying to figure it out (mostly on my own)

#

it definitely looks like crashes became a more common issue recently. when I check the Help channel there's so many threads about crashes, certainly wasn't like that some time ago

floral wagon
#

Yes, but that doesn't necessitate a game error. Could be some windows update, could be a GPU driver update, could all be Logitech users as far as we know. It could of course be some game issue, which is why we're asking all these question, to rule out as many other possibilities as possible because as long as we can't replicate the issue ourselves, that's all we can do to narrow down the possibilities. And I hope you all understand that we don't want to have a discussion like this every single time we try to trace (and ideally debug) an issue, having to "defend" taking an approach that takes into account the possibility of outside causes for glitches and crashes.

coral brook
#

yeah, true. you gotta collect as much info as possible to hopefully see a pattern somewhere

civic dirge

the deleting registry stuff ...... instead of searching yourself in the registry , delete the app/ ghub... run ccleaner use the registry tool , this should flag them all as the app is no longer linked to them due to it being uninsalled

think i might have fixed my issue. played for 2.5 hours and no crash today. things i did.

#

Reset bios to default and reset up xmp, and ryzen auto boost settings (to standard). This was accidental as i had an issue with another program (ryzen master). as far as i can tell it was the same as it was previously, althogh virtual drive setting is now off as i dont have one.

#

Did a Dxdiag and it came up with a drive issue and reinstalled it and problem wen away.

#

Ghub updated against my wishes this morining.

#

Steam and radion overlays turned off.

turned of VR settings in profile in crewcheif as i dont use vr.

Updated net frame work to lates version as it was out of date

Sorry for bothering @fathom venture just for my future troubleshooting.

so i ran a dxdiag and i toled me in the program there was a problem with a gfx driver. i had an old onboard gfx driver instaled seperate from my pci grafics card. i dont think it is related to my main display gfx card drivers but updated anyway. run dxdiag again and no issues afterwards. Netframe work came up being out of date with a windows update i had optional updates for microsoft products turned of so when i turned it back on it updated to lates version 4.xxx cant remember what one it instales really fast on a nvme drive and i couldent read it.

overlays ok i can always turn it back on. im sure it had minimal to do with issues but just turned it off as a just in case as older games on steam sometimes have problems with it.

Im going over to cammus pedals and wheel over christmas as im heavly invested in the game now and rather enjoying it. Thus removing the logitec potential problems with drivers.

Would love to see some more historic vehicles MG and triumphs from?the le-mans 60-70s era.

Thanks for sharing your findings, maybe they can help A.Gray or others.
Also keep us posted if this fix is permanent or in case sth comes up again.

so i loaded up every thin was as this morning only thing that i changed was the sensitivity of the pedals in ghub and then the sensitivity of the pedals in race room. (100% sensitivity in Ghub tabbed in then 20% in race room) left the pits halfway around the track pushing out of corner on throttle boom, CTD same error code.

#

im gonna try again all on default setting in ghub and i bet you no issues.

thinking back ive been playing around with pedal settings all week trying to get my breaking zones right. im cert this is the issue with ghub comunicating to the game.

i appreciate the solid response man, to answer your questions;

the game is installed on my 1tb M.2 drive, its a single partition. I only use that drive for games.

my documents folder is in its default location on the C drive.

i do not have one drive or seam cloud or any other web back up service.

i have tried playing while streaming on both discord and with obs, i did not notice any difference.

as for software, i have crew cheif, moza hub, sim hub, discord, heusinkveld smart control, stream deck, and a chrome tab open. ive tried playing without anything open and i did not notice a difference. that said i have not gone through one by one to see if a single app makes a difference.

as for antivirus im just running windows defender, i believe i only have it set to run once a day besides its normal checks

like i said in the origonal post ive tried going through and single out the issue on my own before reaching out and just wasting yalls time. if there is anything you need that you think might be helpful beyond what ive already provided feel free to ask.

My game has been crashing when racing ranked. Last two races both lost rating points as game randomly crashes during the race. No Ghub here either as running Fanatec GT DD Pro.
Only getting crashes since the big graphic update. Game never crashed pre-update running with same hardware. So only change has been the update to the game.
One race was using overlay, other was with no overlay.
Will keep investigating.

#

@radiant tree @kindred pasture
As I haven't seen you mention it specifically, have you tried disabling replay recording already?

Have you tried in single player as well and does it happen there just the same?

If you haven't already, try resetting your user documents, to rule out some settings file having gone haywire? To do that, navigate to documents/my games/simbin and rename the raceroom folder inside there to rrbackup or sth else. The game will create a fresh set of documents and settings.

I you will, try finding these crashes in Windows Event Viewer and share what it says in there.

#

By controller we mean whatever device(s) you're using to control the game, anything.
And in this case I'd extend that to all peripherals connected to the PC, because we've seen all sorts causing crashes, from one particular Corsair keyboard over audio devices to digital cameras (seriously).

fathom venture
#

further testing i did this morning trying to repicate crashes, its something to do with the ghub comunicates with crewchief binds and then the overlay in the game. i went back to fullscreen mode instead of windowed borderless disabled crew chief and have been crash free. if i turn on the crewchief and adjust sensitivitys to low in ghub it crashes almost instantly and then the logitech wheel goes wierd and looses center position. with crew chief off and all senitivitys to default in ghub i cannot make it crash. trying to change the display mode from borderless to fullscreen with otterhud / crew chief runing causes the game to freeze/lock up with out error message

#

shame tho i enjoy the otterhub overlay

i just back read , #1299074429707616368 message here is the first time i believe you mention otterhud, for me this is possibly the thing that caused everything , it is known to cause crashes

Well raced for hour with nothing on just pure game and out of the blue same 0xc0000005 crash, i'm stumped, other than trying to race without my wheel and just a mouse, is the last thing i can do to test. i'm was sure it was something to do with wheel drivers (ghub logitech) but others have said they are getting crashes with other wheels. I hate to say it but i'm beginning to believe its a game issue gents. i played Rfactor for just over an hour (managed too keep my stomach contents down) and had no issues with crewhub or or any other settings.

fathom venture

#

I can't imagine how ReHUD can cause any game crashes. it's a completely separate program that doesn't affect Raceroom in any way. all it does is a semi-transparent window sitting in front of the game window

OtterHUD is different because it's essentially a website that is running in the in-game web browser. if that website has any serious issues that the browser can't handle, the browser can crash

Did you end up disabling that secondary gpu at some point? I'd definitely give that a try, alongside uninstalling its drivers.

The error you're seeing is a general access violation that can have a variety of causes, from faulty hardware (unlikely, if exclusive to one app) over problems with handling files to issues with driver or dll files.

After the latest game install, did you verify the game files in steam?

Tried running a system file check?

Did you do a clean reinstall of the gpu drivers?

Again, try finding that crash in Windows Event viewer and post the detailed log, please.

It was disabled originally when i first started getting the crash. i enabled it and installed the updated drivers for it as it came up with the error in dxdiag, its the onboard motherboard gfx unit so i think it is only used if the pci card is not plugged in, i dont think its related to the crash as ether way the crashes still happen. I have reinstalled the game twice, verified a few times with no issues. i tried deleting the wheel profile configs and starting again, and renaming as others had suggested in another thread. no luck. I tried rolling back on radion drivers and instaling the lastest no luck. Im not sure how to find windows event viewer for the game crashes other than the ones posted. i have also tried running in administrator mode last night but did not get enough time to be sure it was stable.

Tried what you said Andi no luck i joined a random multiplayer server i then went afk just left it in the menu, as i had other things to do for a min and when i came back i had the same crash error no imput my end from the controler. You dont think it might me a memory leak, i have seen these in other games fill you ram up over time and then cause a crash?

floral wagon
#

It could hypothetically always be sth in the game. At this point at least I'm just judging this by numbers and previous issue experiences.

If there was a general memory leak, I think we should see many more issue reports than we do right now. The fact this doesn't seem to happen for the majority of users suggests that either sth specific on your system is going haywire or sth specific to your system is making sth in the game break.

At the risk of having already been answered: Have you tried the same in a single player race? Just let it sit there and see if it crashes after a while. If we could narrow it down to mp, that'd already be a solid lead.

Re Windows Event Viewer: Type those words into Windows' search and you should find a link to it. Its layout isn't exactly straight forward but you can navigate all your system's logged events there, including critical ones like app crashes. There's a video from MS themselves that's surprisingly useful: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/inside/event-viewer

Ill be honest with you guys i appreciate the support but its been over two weeks, and i just cant simply commit any more of my time to this.

I was running the Competition Time Trial with the Silhouette Concept. Didn't have the ReHud enabled or Crew Chief (which I usually run with) and after about 40 minutes the game just crashed to desktop. No error messages or anything.
Restarted the game from Steam, enabled ReHud and Crew Chief and ran 2 ranked races without any issues. No crashes.
All just seems hit and miss. Never had issues like this prior to the Gfx Update release.

If dxvk, definitely try without that. It's a third party add-on, not fully supported and should always be removed from the equation first when running into any issues.

After the crash yesterday, I disabled the Nvidia Overlay and also disabled recording in game replays. Did several ranked races with no issues and also running Crew Chief and ReHud.
That said, after previous crashes restarting the game seems to allow it to run without issue for a good few hours. Just something I'll have to keep an eye on when I play the game.

Hello! Not sure what will happen if I tag @ everyone in here, so I rather not.

@here I'm going to push a build to the preview branch of the game. Right-click it in your steam library, then select properties, then betas. In there, opt into "preview" beta branch and let Steam download a difference.
That build contains a clean up of the code that your dmp files are pointing at. No obvious cause is given by the dmp files but we're going to try this and see if it still happens.

Please give it a go and use preview branch for the weekend and let me know if there's any improvement.

This crash points at CEF, chrome embedded framework, which makes it hard to debug.

#

@minor whale can you provide some context as to what you were doing when it crashed?

#

Apparently you had an error of some URL name not resolved

#

do you experience internet / DNS issues sometimes? Might be good to reboot your router/box

minor whale
#

@idle charm normally it occurs when pressing escape, Leaderboard, practise or in any other session. When it's gonna happen there's most of the time still sound but everything freezes after a few seconds the sound goes dead and then the pop up of gamecrash appears. I don't experience any internet issues however i'm gonna get a new router 2nd of december so perhaps that's causing the crashes?

Are you by any chance using some custom DNS service, like Adguard, or Aha, NextDNS or similar?

I'd recommend switching your DNS to sth like Cloudflare or quad9. Find a tutorial on how to do, it's worth it anyway but you have to apply it a couple times to cover all bases.

Also, try flushing your PCs DNS cache. Open a cmd window as admin and execute these one at a time in the given order:

ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

minor whale
#

What the hell is a DNS?

void grotto
#

You don't need to do /release and /renew if you have a fixed local IP, but executing the command "netsh winsock reset" might be helpful. (on top of doing /flushdns)

#

Stands for Domain Name System

minor whale
#

I really don't have a clue what you guys are talking about

void grotto
#

Change it to 1.1.1.1 and alternative dns to 1.0.0.1

#

If you have "Obtain IP address automatically" selected as well (can be seen in the link I sent), that means you have to open command prompt and execute the commands "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew"

I've decided to just play the game and if it crashes, it crashes. Played one day last week for several hours and had zero issues/crashes. Day after, game crashed after about 40 mins while doing a competition TT at Hockenheim. A few days after game crashed during 2nd ranked race of the day. Rating gets tanked due to quitting out of race, but c'est la vie. No crash dumps, just game crashes to desktop. No overlays running. Crew Chief running.
These issues have only reared their head since the graphics update. Prior to to that game very rarely crashed if at all.
Crashes happen with either 32bit or 64bit executable.

can you check windows event viewer logs for what might be going off at the time the game closes?

Mine crashed twice today. Was only doing the competition runs at Oschersleben and Zandvoort.
No crash dumps or errors and can't see anything in the Events Viewer for the times that the game is crashing to desktop.
I'm giving up on it with present hardware, as likely getting a new PC before Christmas so will be installing RaceRoom on that and see how we go.

Also I ran 32 bit again and now my game completely freaked out. Suddenly the picture was going away and coming back, game audio crackling and my ffb went WILD.

#

No crash but will upload logs.. This is the second time this has happened

Hi im also having issues, meaning my game crashes randomly but frequently in races, practs and qualis. All Multiplayer. Cant be a Hardware problem. I use a moza wheel and the only 3rd party thing is crewchief but i had crashes without that running.

probably not, they are from a later time than your crash dump. logs are written every time you play the game, not just when a crash occurs

Can you also tell me what cars class was used in the race?

#

Also was it at a certain moment? hitting s/f timing line, or pressing pit stop menu, or anything specific?

I have the same problem, and it seems always in the last 2 minutes of a race...
