Game Won't Start
It flashes the opening PC and then goes black. Doesn't crash, but I need to force close it. Have tried reinstalling, verifying files, updating PC, checking drivers. Have an i9 4090 64GB RAM

Here is the most updated error log:

Hi did you play previously and then it stopped working? This error means the save file is bad so I’m curious if you have a save file or if it’s a new game.

Thanks for the prompt reply! I didn't play. When I opened the game the first time, I clicked on a save slot and the game crashed and I haven't been able to open it to that point since

Any luck with this bug?

The game has been updated quite a few times since then. Could you try again and post your latest log if it crashes? That log doesn't include the latest stuff.

Thanks for the quick reply. Still can't get past the black screen with the hourglass in the beginning.

The game won't start for me either. I've tried a couple of times already and it's not working. It was my first time entering the game, there was a black screen that was loading and then it just shut down.
Did you have any luck with this? My game also continuously crashes (but I'm able to at least get past the initial video and start gathering evidence). My logs are very similar to yours with the same errors.

I tried to delete my save, start a new game, etc, but nothing works. I also have a 4090 so I'm wondering if there's some driver issue here.

If you have a 4090 you definitely meet the minimum requirements! I would check to see if there is a driver update. There was another player who reported crashes on nvidia and a driver update fixed it right up for them!

Sadly not. I have the latest drivers, and just tried a reinstall+clearing my cloud saves and still crashed in the first SpiderSearch. I'm not sure what's going on as I haven't had any crashing issues in any other game with this system. My log is as follows:

Let me know if you'd like to see my save file if that would help. I do have a MacBook Pro I could potentially play on but I'd love to play on my main rig if possible.

I'm sorry, this is a highly unusual thing. The logs look like the game is quitting normally.

What are you searching for in the first spider search?
It's fairly random. I did a search for "Roottree Sisters" and highlight something and it crashed. The first time I was able to identify the 3 sisters but then it crashed when I was attempting to highlight the faces in the picture.

Sorry but this one is a mystery to me. The logs don't show a crash and your driver is up to date. The only thing I can think of is other software that might be running at the same time that's interfering with it?

A refund or playing on a different computer might be your only option. Sorry!
