"pure virtual function being called while application was running (GIsRunning == 1)"

[perroloco]

I just purchased the PC Steam version XCOM 2 as a package with all the DLC 3 days ago and I am immensely disappointed. So far I have 20 hours into this game and more than half of those hours have been spent trying to correct the crash with the error msg "pure virtual function being called while application was running (GIsRunning == 1)" Apparently this crash has been well known almost since the game was initially released. Does anyone know of a fix for this? I am about to delete all Local Content and reload from scratch without installing any of the DLC stuff. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Hi guys. This error is not related to this game itself, I am Unreal engine developer, and I did something here so bad that not sure it's causing this issue on the engine. So your problem it's because some developer screwit up... wait for a fix, basically...

you did what?
and.. on purpose??
what you mean, brother???^^

The problem persists when you use this Cheats Code PowerUp and if you use some trainer it gets worse.
I have managed to pass most of the missions using only the trainer

Perhaps I didn´t express myself properly, i´m not Unreal Engine DEVELOPER (as engine developer, I don´t work for unreal) I am Unreal engine Gamer developer.

My answer will not help you with your issue, i´m just saying, the game has a bug, nothing that you can do will fix it, I know this because I developed a game that throwed same error, the only solution is to fix the bug. You might see same error in other unreal games, like mortal kombat, dragon ball z, the culling, etc...

This is not a very good error message, it usually happen when someone tries to call a pure virtual function in an object's constructor or destructor

I finished the game and I only had that error when using the PowerUp command.

Hi guys,
I'm posting this in case it helps someone:
I had the same problem, to try to pinpoint the problem I uninstalled all the extensions and re-added them one after the other. I have also set the graphical setting to minimal (to speed up game launches while testing). In the end, I have been able to re-add all the extensions...
So no idea what went wrong but i seems stable for now.
Because of this, I won't be tinkering anymore (I don't want to mess it up).
Good luck for those who have this problem ;)
see ya

This error occured when I used the "Mod Config Menu Legacy" Mod, turning it off resolved issue.

Funny, all I had to do was go to the file path \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\XCOM 2\Launcher > find Launcher.exe > Right Click > Properties > Compatibility and check Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 8.

Then you make a shortcut of that same Launcher.exe on your desktop and use it to launch the game. No crashes since.

I just got this same error but for Gears 5.

I dont understand why, but this i have changed and after it works good as ever before. For the moment...
Game works fine for years, but last weeks game saves all time slowly and then now totaly freeze every try by save a game (new savegame too). Strg-Alt-Entf and the error message displays.
- I stop the official "XCOM2-Longwar2-Mod" and loading game with the "War Of The Chosen"-addon. Works fine as ever and i can save game without problems. Then back to normal XCOM2 with LW2. (No other mods.)
- After long playtime before, the new-recruit-list in the Avenger was longer than it was scrollable. I am not sure this can produce any "overflow"-problems. I take most of the recruits, and disband them.
- With older savegame (i use 2 in a change per campaign + before a mission starts) go other ways on the world map, decline missions i made before and play other mission.

Anyway, something has helps. Works fine and is saveable as ever. Hope can helps anybody here too...

This happens to me with the Progressive Armor Options mod. Nothing seems to fix it.
