me too haven't being able to start the character creation.

Not through Steam, so take it with a grain of salt. But in Epic, I get to 90% Compiling Shaders and then it gets stuck. Sounds like could be a bad shader file somewhere. I don't know enough to fix it, but wanted to share.

I got stuck at 90%, got pissed and reset the game, after restart it just loads the game no problem.

Game got stuck at 90% compiling shaders.
Restarting fixes it for me tho. On the first try, it just loaded by itself in sometime after not alt tabbing out of the game.

when it gets 90% just wait bit longer. In my case it worked

Agreed, I used to just quit and restart the game, but left it going while I was cooking food downstairs and came back up to it completed.

it hang on 90%...........55seconds later 100%, if u restart game it may help or not i have no idea why it does that

all with shaders problems do this, *no joke*
open your browser, goto Google and search for "how to manually delete DX shader cache"

very important, make sure no app or game that could use DX or hardware accelerated functions, make sure you close all of them. then follow the tutorial you find on google, after you done all the "and if the tut did not asked you" RESTART YOUR PC , important, then start the game and all should compile faster.

reason you may have are, either broken shader files or outdated cached files. if you delete dx shaders by windows menu's "yes windows has an option BUT doen not do a good job that's why you need to google to manually delete them"

I just cassually wait 10 hours of "compiling" in steam so I dont wait 10? hours in the game. The game works fine afterwards, until next patch, another 10 hours.

When it happens to me, restarting the game fixes it. It should not take that long
