Error Code - Crashing

[Violet Rose (DJ)]

When attempting to play the game both Desktop and VR it will crash anywhere between loading the menu, while i hit the white screen to load character view, or when loading into a planets atmo if i manage to get in.

Tested many "fixs" and looked for help around, Even requested help from the reporting like it said to, But alas no help. So ill post my error code and maybe someone can give me some help, Ive recently updated pc, and Drivers all around to see if that was the issue... im guessing something is borked in the game, or the game is now out of my play range?

Errorcode: 102900_0x12C1D6_ST76561198001370586

As a side note this only happened after the interceptor update.

You may have a look into your windows Event Viewer for more Info about that crash.
WIN+X will open that windows list, there start the Event Viewer and
expand Windows Logs and look under Application for warnings with a timestamp of that crash.

Copy&Paste the details here, so we can check it

If this one shows only AppHang with unknown Reason, check the Events below of this one

i looked at my event log and in applications the only thing that i got was a warning for certs. and some info warnings.

I have the same problem, it crashes when I minimize the game to check other windows in google and it won't let me open other tabs because "out of memory"

I never had these problems before the update

I'm having the same issue after the Interceptor update - it crashes in the loading screen before I get to the new planet

To bad that there is no event about that crash.
Do you have any MOD`s installed ?
Or GPUTweak OSD running?
Or any Streaming software ?
Without an analyse of your crash dump file its hard to figure out whats wrong :
That file is in :
C:\Users\YOUR_ID\AppData\Local\Temp
(it will be called something like
NMS_crash_xxxxxxxxxx_102900_0x12C1D6_ST76561198001370586.dmp

Having same issues here.

Just did a clean install of windows 10 recently, but the crashing has been happening prior to the clean install as well. If it's relevant, the crashing was happening during the Fractal update as well, but very rarely. Since the recent Inceptor update, I can only load into the game for a couple of seconds before it ultimately crashes to the desktop.

==System Specs==
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
- Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X570-PRO
- GPU: EVGA RTX 2060 XC ULTRA GAMING
- RAM: Corsair 32GB (DDR4)

Here is more information from Windows Event Viewer:

The program NMS.exe version 37364.0.0.0 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.
Process ID: 229c
Start Time: 01d969cf4e3f3060
Termination Time: 2
Application Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky\Binaries\NMS.exe
Report Id: 45ee39d5-da13-4322-8328-c2ffb4cf5de3
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
Hang type: Cross-thread

Been scouring threads everywhere. Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, or if it has more to do with the update itself. The consensus seems pretty mixed from what I can tell among those who play the game (or are trying to). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1_ Yes, I've been constantly checking for windows updates. Checking every hour or so, and installing them.
2_ Yup, verified the integrity of the game files several times as well.
3_ No mods installed. Not very big on modding.
4_ No streaming software, not a streamer. And I don't usually use any software for recording or video editing, etc.
5_ Nope, not even sure what that is.

Thanks for the quick response though!

Ok...
Just in case .. do a clean install of your GPU driver :

Okay, I'll try a reinstall of the graphics drivers, even though my gpu drivers are up to date.

[hieureka]

Clean install with no changes. Thanks for all your help though! I'll just keep an eye out on future hotfixes and patches.
