Hard drive not detected after crash

[Jaregroum]

I'm confronted with a unusual kind of crash: I tried starting to play the game twice. First time Sandbox mode with all graphic settings to max, Game crashed during the loading screen. After that, the hard drive i installed WoC to(not C:) was virtually not detectable via windows explorer, partition manager or Samsung magician(Driver tool). Trying to start different Games or WoC told me that the files could not be found.
After a reboot the Drive was back. and fully functioning with other games.

I reinstalled the game then to another hard drive(also not C:) and started a new try today: started with no graphic settings changed, sandbox. Game loaded, i managed to salvage a few ruins, then placed the builders hut. Game crashed again, Drive again not detectable.
Reboot happens after writing this post.
edit: like the first time, Drive reemerged from the depths and is still fine.

Hello Jaregroum,

From the description, it looks like it is something we have never had reported before.

I can say some obvious things like:
* Random crashes are very often caused by too high RAM consumption (too many applications in the background).
* The game periodically saves to disk (in the save files location), loads files from the game folder and does not perform any other disk-related activities.

But I suspect this does not help :( You can send me your log file after a crash, maybe there is something there that could point into a solution.

The log file is located in the same folder as the save files (and is callled Player.log).

Your save files are located here:

YOUR DRIVE LETTER:\Users\[YOUR WINDOWS USER NAME]\AppData\LocalLow\CrazyGoatGames\WorshippersOfCthulhu

Please note the AppData folder is hidden in Windows by defult.

If you could send it to [e-mail] I will gladly check it out.
