Worst game ever for crashing

[Maulite]

I've been in contact with quite a few people at Frontier over this now. For two months, the game has been crashing me back to desktop - a lot!

Frontier has said it is a known problem with Nvidia 9 and 10 series graphics cards. I have been told there is no fix yet, they don't know what the problem is and I'm stuck with the most expensive game I ever bought (Alpha and VIP package) and the most unstable.

I did think I'd found a work-around by not uploading my blueprints, I was able to start a game from scratch without any problems. But even in this new park, the game has started crashing again. Perhaps it's actually the number of pieces you have in your park or something that's corrupted in the game?

I'm frustrated as I don't know the answer and neither do the makers of the game. I have a pretty good PC and I've done everything you could think of to make it run smooth. (Disk cleaners, virus checkers, PC tune-up, vacuuming the inside of my PC and processor...)

My specs are:

AMD Athlon 860K Quad
24GB Ram
Nvidia 960

Has anyone else had the same problem and do you know how to fix it?

The reason I paid so much for this game was to support the making of Planet Coaster and PLAY IT - which I now can't even do.

I'm not sure what's going on eith my GPU fan. recently bought a GTX 10650 3gb. Been working great until I load this game. As soon as I do, the fan goes into full speed run. 1st time it did, it made me jump. Haven't heard a fan kick in like that, ever. I haven't even built anything in the game yet. I have the newest drivers and everything installed, so I'm not sure where the issue is.

Thats a strange thing to happen, have you been running any monitoring softeware to see whats happening?

Not suffered a single crash after 24 hours. Although i am not impressed with the performance when you get into detailed work in sandbox mode. Start of build 60fps 2 hours and maybe 1/6th park completed and down to sub 20 fps.. Not even sure its going to be worth making a full sized park at this rate because the end result wont be enjoyable to watch.

Crashing very frequently

So yeah, game was working perfectly throughout the campaign (around 20 hours), but as soon as I started constructing an intricately detailed park (a couple of thousand objects so far) in challenge mode, I'm running into frequent crashes. They're so bad now, that the game is pretty much unplayable.

Running a GTX970 with i5-2500k, with no performance problems whatsoever.

double check your video drivers and by that I mean (and this part is important no short cuts)

checking the exact DATE on the driver, then looking up on the Nvidia site to make sure its the most up todate.

reason I say this is important is because for a different game everything related to 'drivers' said i was up todate but I was in fact...not

[Bertoxxulous]

Yeah, thanks for the advice, but unfortunately I was already running with the most recent drivers. I just tried rolling back to an earlier driver, but no improvement :/

and I ask this question not because i am being an ass but because I went down this exact line with someone else who said they had the latest version. but actually didnt

How do you know its the latest version?

I was trusting GeForce Experience automatic updates, which updated just a few days ago. Just double-checked on the Nvidia site, and they're from november the 18th. (Version 375.95)

Same problem here, I have a 670GTX with latest drivers. I'm also playing in challenge mode.

just wanted to say I have the same problem with the game crashing constantly in larger parks. In a park with > 2.000 guests and 12 rides I get a CTD every half an hour or so. I didnt encounter any crashes in the first 3 career missions though (probably since the parks are less complex).
I have a i5 3570, 8GB RAM and a GTX 960.

Same here, having a i7-3770K, 16GB RAM and a GTX 670.

Just checked and for some reason, as soon as I start any thing in this game, before building, before even moving, the GPU temp skyrockets...No clue why. This it quite literally the ONLY game that does this. Titanfall 2, everything maxed...fine. Cities Skylines 100k city and tons of mods...fine. Not sure what's going on here.

Never had a crash yet in 70hrs of playing this.

i5, GTX 1060 3GB, 16GB RAM, Updated to latest Nvidia drivers 375.95 (Never had the 375.86 driver installed, I managed to dodge that bullet)

I found that my GTX 670 4GB card really just can't handle this game in higher settings. I was crashing after 10 seconds in the game constantly but once I turned the settings down to low I've got 80+ hours with only one crash after hours of playing that session.

Time for a new Video Card, it's been a few years and served me well... thankfully it does run the game on low just fine and the game still looks pretty enough.

I have a theory that the crashes are coming from a sudden VRAM dump. Whenever I move too quickly into a item populated area in my park the screen suddenly goes black and the game crashes. I don't really know for certain but that's definetly a bug I've been experiencing (a lot). I'm on a GTX 660 and the game runs just fine other than that.

just bougtht the game, started a park, crashed 30 min in, started a second crashed 5 minutes in, i got a msi gtx 1060 3gb and got recent update.. pretty salty right now
