Crashing constantly

[CaptainCrazy]

I have been away from the game for a while. I was waiting for updates. Now alot has been done to the game me and my buddies downloaded it again. And wow the crashing... there's no obvious reason behind it every 5 to 15 mins without fail it crashes to a send report window. It's does not matter what I'm doing in game afk? Crash riding a bike? Crash. Looting? Crash just frigging existing in the game world crash! Come on its been a long time iv had the game since launch and it somehow got worse?? My system is a 10900k rtx 3080 32gigs of ram. Kinda dominates the game and pretty sad to see it crashing on high end hardware this crash happens to my friend who is running a 10900k and a 980ti and another friend with a 10700k and rtx 3070. Whyyyyyyy

Does not matter how big your "gear" is, the game is not developed properly by the designers.

Which is why it confuse's me why people keep asking for new stuff to be added when the base game is not even functioning right...

Even the so called "guide" to help with crashes they pinned does not work.

Pretty sad really that you have to have a pinned "guide" to fix crashes when you cant even make a game that functions how it should.

That is a huge red flag alone in its self.

But it is caused by a memory leak in a certain file, but i wont give the name. Its the developers job to figure it out.

Since this new update iv'e started getting crash to desktop all the time to the point iv'e given up really.

I mean i found out for me anyway it's the main file the one that starts the game causing the issue.

Tho i'm also getting a sound bug where 90% of my sound disappears and nothing i can do can bring it back :/

Actually one guy has a fix for the audio issue Turning off the heartbeat sound causes it.

Yea its honestly very frustrating and google isn't really bringing any results. Saw all these cool new updates and I cant even get off the first island longest play session I have got is about 20 or so minutes.

I may have a possible fix for that tho that's a big if. But i got to wait for my game to finish reinstalling first tho.

Right on keep me posted Im also trying some things myself.

So I will update after further play. But I have shutdown msi afterburner and while not to happy with my gpu Temps right now this is the longest iv been in game Idle in the same spot I have tried every other fix in. Fingers crossed

Good luck, if anyone finds a solution please post it here, I am having the same problem and it is really frustrating

Ok my game finished downloading so here's what i did Crazy.

Right click on Generation zero and click properties - local files - browse and there should be a file called Generation Zero_F that's the file that starts the game.

Right click on it and there should something saying troubleshoot compatibility click that let it load, then click on recommended settings top one and you should be done.

I don't have any idea what that did but i was crashing every time when fast traveling and after doing that i did not crash once.

Like iv'e gotten way further than i ever have in other places. The sports field near the first bunker would always crash, never crashed once and nearly got to the main island i only stopped cause of a horrible sound bug.

This may not 100% fix it but it's clearly done something.

Again it may not work but it's dome something on my end i used event viewer to look up crashes on windows 10 and it was a application error which lead me to that.
