You guys can pkay it ? I have the fatal error at launch, didn't see anything in game. Fick them, it is litteraly a scam.

Game crashes at start of new game for me. it just say fatal error.

using i3 8100 RTX 3060 12gb RAM 16gb Win10 installed on SSD

I had this issue in the same spot with the small little Fatal error pop up.

Go into your graphics software, make sure it is set to run quality not performance for this game and it should work.

I had done everything verify/reinstall/turned graphics all the way down, new driver and still crashed until i checked my amd software and found it had the game set to performance.

This particular crash seems to be specific to RTX.
I recommend updating the driver and changing to window mode (instead of borderless full screen) and skip the cutscene. (saving right in front of Claudia's house helps speed up attempts)

Another solution is to try the game on a different computer. Even if it doesn't run the game well, the crash isn't about hardware power, but a bug, so a weaker computer could get around the bug. Then save and Steam cloud sync will copy the new save over to your main machine.

error fatal, se bloque al iniciar un juego nuevo, rtx 3060 12g, i3 10100f, 24gb ram

Im guessing this is a CPU/GPU overheating issue is my best guess

[danrt86]

I wonder if a high FPS leads to the crash.

[disruptivE]

Im getting the same crashes, cant get past the reactor in Nibelhelm. This is ridiculous

If you are getting DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG as the crash report, then use these steps in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ARK/comments/17plsn4/possible_fix_for_dxgi_error_device_removed_with/

It worked for me after having that fatalerror crash.

I was getting that, it was because i was overclocking my RTX 3050 8gb past 1900mhz on the clock speed and an OC on my Ram. Tweaked those all down and just fine now, 58-75fps 1440p High Setting

not sure if it makes any difference but i managed to get past the fatal error at the end of the Flashback by turning all my graphics to low, setting the min and max to 33% having it windowed instead of fullscreen, and Setting the AA Method to TAA instead of TAAU. then after i finished the scenes and was in control again i put all my settings back to how they were before.

After initially encountering the error, and doing a bunch of stuff like updating GPU drivers, disabling steam overlay, letting shaders recompile, etc. I was able to play for 2 days straight around the Kalm area, without issues besides 1 fatal error.

Today i boot it up, and every fight causes a fatal error. No matter what settings i use it doesn't help.

EDIT1
I got it to work again, by putting shadow and fog quality at low
I have character shadow distance and character display distance settings on 0 too. Not sure if related.

EDIT2
Nevermind. It crashed again.

[ProfessorFrog]

Someone in another thread said it was related to the game not being on the C: drive.

Can people says if they have fatal error crashes in combat and what drive they have it on?

[P Bag]

Well I had it on D: drive which was an HDD. Crashed.
Installed it on C: drive which was an SDD. Crashed.
Installed it on E: drive which is a different SDD. Crashed.
