Crash

Bogdano

Right now the game crashes while it is loading up Summerset for my main character. I disabled my add-on. It still crashes. I ran it in compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack 2. It still crashes.
So I have discontinued by subscription to ESP Plus.
Perhaps it is my computer. This is the only program that gives me trouble though.
It had been crashing while playing the game. It typically shut off my video though the computer continued operating. I discovered that instead of rebooting my computer, I could unplug the HDMI cable from the TV and plug it back in and be back in the game.
There have been players who are running illegal mods that they have purchased from disreputable people. These mods have been used on me to disable my access to my keyboard.
Eventually I will try uninstalling the game and reinstalling it, I suppose. I have plans to buy a better computer. I set all the video options that had defaulted to medium, to low, in an attempt to prevent the video crashing.
I may not be wealthy enough to play this game.
For now it is back to solitaire and ricochet infinity.
Is anyone else having trouble with the game crashing?

game has received video quality overhaul (more or less), it sound like video card issues, try lowering settings in general or particles(?), check cooling (and temperatures).

about unresponsive keyboard it is known issue in PvP mostly (bar swap), about cheats: first they can't affect your PC and second but more important: you can be sure that if someone is using cheat it is reported fast - there are competitive players very sensitive about cheats, streaming and filming and checking how they died.

I have this crashing loading in to Summerset problem on PS4 EU and so do many many other people. Can't get my daily writs done today because of it.

Actually someone else posted this for PS4. I'm guessing something in the zone might be causing issue for some players with the extended anniversary since that's the only thing that would have changed from the previous days.

I uninstalled the game. It doesn't uninstall all the details about the game. Then I reinstalled it. It took a while.
Now the game does not crash anymore. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
It seems the installation had become corrupted.
I started using a solid state drive a little under a year ago. They are much faster than the hard drives but they don't hold up as well to large amounts of read and write activity.
I bought another solid state drive recently but I haven't migrated the system to it, yet. Maybe this is a good time to do that.

I suspected overheating of the APU. I am playing with a computer that doesn't have a video card. It doesn't even have a separate GPU. Graphics are done within the CPU apparently.

I am hoping to find a reasonable deal on a computer with an adequate video card. I'm looking at refurbished Dells on Newegg.
Even with a minimal system which is what I have, it is a very beautiful gaming environment.
It has worked well for years for me now, and the CPU fan makes noise sometimes. I removed it and cleaned it and the heatsink, and then realized I couldn't find my thermal grease for the heatsink.
I plan on buying a better cooler and some thermal grease. The computer itself still has some life in it.

When I had the person lock my keyboard, we were competing for farming resources. The same guy did it twice. I will go back there at the time of day it happened and get his I.D. and report him if I can. My character i use for farming is maxed out for speed and gives even the most experienced farmers some competition. I know the area where I farm quite well too. I am using an Alcast build for the farmer.

The game can alter the data on my computer. My computer warns me about this when I load up the game. I makes me accept the changes to continue. If a person has access to the game coding, they can also alter the data on your computer. This is one of the possible ways the game data on my computer was corrupted.

Don't me naive and think that malicious players can't affect your PC. I have the experience of it happening to me while competing for farming resources.

I 'm sure that person bought the add-on that would do that from a coder on a more secretive website, for PVP situations and is more confidant about using it in a farming encounter than in PVP battles.
