That sounds like a memory RAM issue, access violation.

yeah but i have 16 Gb ram ^^ and gtx 1050 4 gb i will try with lower graphic setting ...

It can't be low RAM. I also have 16gb RAM and GTX 1070

I get this as well. 16GB ram. Is too much ram the problem? ;( Is there no clue as to what causes this issue? I see posts about it everywhere. :(

i remember there is a fix but i dont remember what it was, just keep at it and you'll run into it at somepoint. goodluck.

edit: i found this, give it a shot. https://steamcommunity.com/app/244160/discussions/0/2595630410188833067/

This is old thread, but this helped me today :
If you have AMD card, go to Catalyst Control Center and deactivate Catalyst AI + triple buffering = off. That´s all... :-)

This is better than my specs, and I don't have this issue. So not a RAM issue likely.

Same here

I am having this Access Violation message now too. I've played the game now for 23 hours and never had a problem until now. I have lowered the texture quality and size like it suggested, and I'm still getting the error.

Here is what is really interesting, this error only happens when I select a a single ship from a group and literally try to do anything with it individually. It doesn't matter which ship, it doesn't matter if it is a move order, attack order, recycle. The game crashes with that error if I try to issue any individual orders or a grouped ship.

Edit: did some more testing to try ungrouping them. They stay grouped. Somehow. A normal group when you click one ship of the group they all highlight and have the group number. Now with these ships ungrouped they're all highlighted when I select just one ship like they are grouped, but there is no corresponding number. and of course the game still locks up when I try to do anything with them.

Edit: I fixed it. I had to ungroup all the ships, and also remove them from their formation. Then regroup and reform them. It even works with the texture quality turned back up. It must have been some glitch with the grouping/formation system the game couldn't handle. I've been playing off and on for about an hour now and haven't run into any errors since.

My guess is that "access violation" occurs whenever the programs uses over 2gb of RAM, which the engine was never designed to handle.

I get this message a lot, but not regularly. I attribute it to the game being poorly optimized / dedrater.
