[SOLVED] Rust crashes without any error/reason

[$NIPER]

So, after loading the map and after cleaning up, 1 second from spawning my game crashes to desktop without any error or anything. I tried reinstalling rust, adjusting the memory allocated for the ssd, using all the settings possible, compatibilty mode and run as admin, allocating all memory to rust and loads of other things.

My specs are:

256 GB SSD with 127 GB free and rust installed
8 GB of RAM
Intel Core i5-6400 2.70GHz (4 cores)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 (2 GB)
64 bit Windows 10

EDIT: A video of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZ_8J25kA7Y&feature=youtu.be

EDIT 2:

Here is some logs from windows:

EDIT 3:

Found the same problem I experience here:

He said:

details about the crash: my screen stops moving as if the game crashed but i can still hear my footsteps and everything else i do in the game, for example if i shoot my gun, i can hear it actually shooting but the screen is not moving, and after a short time the game just closes.

He also has almost same logs as me.

EDIT:

I solved the problem! I had to rollback the GPU drivers, for some reason the newest gave me this problem. Now i can play rust at max fps and stuff with no problem!

Get another 8GB ram. An ssd with 8 won't crash unless the page file is restricted or on a nearly full hdd (which can still crash).

Win 10 with steam and basics running uses nearly 4GB of 8GB, the game on average uses 8GB and is known to use up to 11GB.

I played rust on 4gb with about 40 fps on another computer, trust me, ram isn't a problem...

If you played rust with 4gb of ram, then you really played RUST with 2GB of ram as 64bit OS's require 2gb of ram and forced the rest onto your page file which is where it forces your hard drive to act as ram.

Among other issues this can cause micro-stuttering and system instability. I would honestly suggest more RAM even if it doesn't fix the particular crash for this game as RUST has tons of reasons it crashes.

Go to steam library and right click on rust go to game files or local files and you should see rust after that right click on rust and run it as admin. Shouldn’t crash after that

Already tried that, i also wrote it up.

I don't think ram is a problem since it worked with 4 gb of ram that's my point. I have literally no idea why it is crashing, i tried anything i found online. If you have any other ideas, just let me know and i'll tell you if i tried it or if i will test it.

When was it that you had it working with 4gb? Like how recently?

1-2 weeks i think

gtx 950 would be why

get an gtx 1060 or 1070

Ok, so i've found out that for some reason rust ignores -maxMem= 4096Mb or 2048Mb and just when I spawn, rust rushes to about 6-7 gb or the ram and at that point since there is no ram left it just crashes with no errors. Any solutions to make rust actually limit the ram?

My current command line is: -maxMem= 2048Mb -malloc=system -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=4 -force-d3d11-no-singlethreaded -window-mode exclusive

Over burdening your SSD isn't a solution nor an excuse as to the crashes, you're already maxed out BEFORE you launch RUST, using your SSD to read/write all the data that's supposed to go into the memory - of which is also causing some performance drops - can still cause crashes. You cannot run RUST on no usable memory or only 4GB of usable memory.

The solution is stop burdening your SSD and get the right amount of memory, increasing the temporary storage is an overall terrible idea (it may only temporarily resolve your issue) and as mentioned can still cause you to crash. Default settings is fine as-is; assuming you have 16GB of RAM or more. The game uses up to 11GB of RAM

That is completely false. You cannot even start the game without it crashing on 4gb ram, I started with 6gb ram and the performance was horrible. Sometimes it froze for like 10 seconds then started stuttering again, it completely froze again after there are gun shots sounds, or any sounds that might be increasing ram usage. Now I have 12gb ram and I saw a huge difference. It still lags out because 12gb isn't enough. You're using 8gb ram of course you can't run it. So get another 8gb if you want to end the horrible lagging, crashing, and stuttering.

anyways, i've made a video to show the problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZ_8J25kA7Y&feature=youtu.be
