Game crashes whenever I start shoveling coal in the train

[=POSTA=]

No kidding, that's the only time my game freezes and pops out a BugTrap message.

I'm like come on game, I just wanna listen to some conversations. Not a deal breaker but still would like to know what's going on.

Yes. When you ride the train, there is an option to help shoveling the coal downstairs.

Yes, it's one of the things you need to do if you are trying to get the "Friend of the Crew" achievement.

[Zeon did nothing wrong]

I haven't played in a while, does it still crash there?

Crashed to me today. Had Settings on Extreme and RTX on Ultra. Setting RTX on High, got me the crash at the 4th shovel. Lowering to DirectX 11 solves the issue.

However, you don't need to shovel coal for the achievement. You need to bring the Teddy and the Guitar back.

Thank you for posting this! I tried it twice and got the bug message. While the game files were verifying, I ran a quick Google search and found this. Cheers, I am not alone!

+1 for me. Actually I'm thankful it happens for others and is not a problem with my new PC.

Same crash

Bug still present. 100% reproduction rate with 2 tries. Forces me to hard reset.

Same

Just got the crash today. DirectX 12 raytracing set to High. Made it to about the 7th shovel load and it crashed. Reproducible every time. Crazy that this hasn't been fixed. I've noticed a fair bit of graphical glitches as well. When I was on the train with the armored train chasing us the wooden beams in between the rails were static while the snow and other environmental stuff just moved through it. Plenty of shadows glitching and what looked like Z fighting. I figured this game would be in tip top shape by now.

Disable Ansel and restart your pc.

Works fine... did the same weeks ago.

E: And just to be clear. That's not a 4A Games or DX12 problem, it's a nvidia problem.
