Onwards, for the Emperor!

I verified game files integrity and the game started crashing every 10 minutes instead of every 30-60 minutes...

It hasn't crashed ONCE for me after putting off Special K.

This is my setting btw.

I got a CTD after initiating a fight in Chapter 1, I didn't even get an error message detailing the crash. Not to mention multiple bugs over the prologue including one where combat started and none of my characters could be repositioned in tactical phase or set to move / attack during their turns, but enemies acted normally. Other minor bugs include feats appearing twice on tooltips / RMBs, text disappearing, custom portraits not immediately changing on the character creator (but working okay if you just keep going with creation).

I want to support Owlcat as much as the next guy and I'm also familiar with how buggy their other releases were, but I don't understand how none of these bugs were squashed before release. Maybe it's my fault for not paying them to be their Beta Tester, lol.

ETA: Not using mods, SpecialK or anything other than a custom portrait.

i seemed to have fixed the issue for myself, I turned off vsync and capped the frame rate limit to 60 in the graphics settings and have been able to play for an hour without crashing, I will update if anything changes

Yeah no. Sure you can expect bugs in a big and complex game like this. but the first acts were in beta and they should know unity by now. WotRs release was already much smoother than PKs. (Yes, yes, both still got bugs...)
But I still did not have a ctds with their first two games.
What annoys me most is the unknown error which leads to a ctd.

There are plenty of games at this caliber (i.e crpg) that don't crash. Hell BG3 is 3 tier up and there are no widespreading errors on launch.

After kingmaker I definitely would give any owlbear product 30-60 days to mature after launch.

And I like their products.

I get a BSOD without fail after the game's on for a couple hours. My computer should be able to more than handle it, so I don't understand what the issue is.

[mightycthulu]

just restarted the prologue with my changed settings and had zero crashes i suggest people turn of vsync and manually cap the frame rate to avoid throttling issues which i suspect is the reason for the numerous crashes.

I have crashed 3 times in the tutorial, once after char creaton, second tiem after the first dialogue with the whisperer guy, and the third time after the servitors have gone berserk, and I have a beefy computer, also put v sync on in the nvidia control panel and capped my fps... so annoying. Finally an RPG I look forward to and then this >_<

Hold up, I've been looking for someone with this issue. Do you mean Abelard named you Rogue Trader and then the game freezes when you hit end dialogue? Did you submit the bug report before you pressed End Dialogue then?

Yes, did it exactly like you said. Well, got no freezes but CTDs.
Funny thing, after that I played half of today and it didn't crash even once.

Just maybe, because it is mentioned here, I disabled my extern fps limit and only use the ingame options for that. Don't ask me when, tried too much. I mean, Owlcat put in als those options and this time in Unity, it seems to work?!

[BvB1]

Omg, I pressed OK on the tutorial pop up at the very first fight with the servitors, and again crash.. practically right after loading the game..

[mightycthulu]

try not to use nvidia control panel, and turn OFF vsync IN GAME in the graphics menu and set the fps limit to 60

Crashing with these specs: i9-13900kf CPU, an RTX 4090 gpu, running on Windows 11. Crashes to hell and back. I can't finish the tutorial because of crashes..

rule of thumb for all unity game, limit your fps because it can spike to 1k+
