Game Keeps Crashing

[Cowboy]

I played this when it first came out then uninstalled and waited for updates. It ran fine before but now it just crashes within a few minutes of playing. Here is the full log if it helps. This is a fresh install.

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000000

So did some testing. It crashes every time i go to access the starter water purifer in the very beginning of the game. Soon as i just look at it , it will crash. I dont even click on anything. I have also updated my driver

did you try doing a vertify files on the game? Check to see if your anti virus is blocking ForeverSkies_Win64_Shipping

i have not but how would that effect when I look at the water purifier it crashes? it doesnt crash any other timer. I made the new one and it crashed when i tried to mount that one. Anything else i do in the game is fine.

A single key file reference might be missing or corrupted.

its fixed. Verifying files didnt find anything wrong. I reinstalled the game again and it crashed again. So then I uninstalled it again and deleted the folder. Reinstalled and now its not crashing.

The verify game files option is not quite up to the task. It is close, and it has fixed several issues in a few of my games. But, every now and then - it takes a small nuke to fix it. Weird.

Glad you fixed it, and that you shared how you did.

Keeps happening to me as well when i go to make a new game file, it even crashed steam for me. i verified the files and even uninstalled and restarted my pc still doesnt work. when i try to reinstall it, it tells me i either dont have perms to download it or it says file write error. what happened to this game

Were you running any mods when it crashed? This is usually the main cause.

I simply backed up my savegames folder, then deleted all the files inside the folder. For some reason it was able to restore the files I deleted, maybe from Steam backup. Then it stopped crashing. Savegames folder is at
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\ProjectZeppelin\Saved\SaveGames
