[BUG] Crash to desktop when hovering over items
The game has crashed on me 10+ times now, each time after I mouse over an equipable item.

The first time it happened was on the Embark screen. I had just started the game, so this was the first mission you get to pick. When I hovered over the Stun Stone reward, the pop-up box appeared and the game crashed a fraction of a second later.

I reloaded and it was repeatable, I think I tried two or three more times. I eventually just started the mission and at the end I was able to mouse over the Stun Stone without any problems.

It's happened with a couple of other items too, but none repeatably. Sometimes items in my inventory mid dungeon, sometimes back at the Hamlet.

Any ideas?

This keeps on happening to me. It's making the game very hard to play.

I captured a video of it here:

I should probably add some system specs:

OS is Windows 10 64bit
CPU is Intel i5-4690 (not overclocked)
GPU is Radeon R9 390 (factory defaults, latest drivers)
Motherboard is Gigabyte Z97X-GAMING-3
32GB RAM
Monitor is Asus MG279Q running at 1920x1080@60Hz, freesync off


*edit

and Darkest Dungeon build 13377

Having the same problem. Every time I get a trinket in a dungeon and I mouse over it, the game crashes to desktop.

My specs:
Windows 8 x64 bit
Intel i5 4690K
GTX 970
Asus z97 Motherboard
8 GB RAM (Kingston Hyperx, if it's relevant)

I've been having the same problem, this didn't happen on the beta/early acess, it's so hard to see bug threads about this that have any kind of fixes.
Also have the 13377 build and i tried some other versions i can't recall what ones i used.

My specs:
Windows 7
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E7600
4GB RAM
*Not a built pc i have it since 2009/10

No, it isn't any one particular trinket. It could happen one time, but not happen again on the exact same trinket on the exact same screen after I restart the game.

It's probably nothing, but I have noticed my hard disk seeking just after the mouse over and at the same time as the crash. Maybe an issue loading something from disk?

Sorry to revive a dead thread but apparently this had luck in reddit;

"Turn Vsync on in your GPU's control panel and run the game in windowed mode."

Hey thanks!

I finished the game last year anyway (just struggled on despite the bug, restarting after every crash), but it's good to have an answer if anyone else stumbles across this thread.
