Wonderful game.. crashed 1min into game started. Does anyone know a workaround or other tips that may work?

I also have this problem, reported by more and more buyers, but not answer.
In fact this problem seems (same problem on another game) to hapen with too recent generation of Intel CPU (11th & more).
That's also why I'll boycott the next version of this game (TH 2)

[ShockedHearts]

its the intel cpu issue mentioned above. simply the engine and such these games are running on dont support them.

Should be an easy fix by just recompiling w/ the latest Unreal build, but the devs abandoned the game and don't care anymore.
Won't buy Treasure Hunter Simulator 2

Aah haha that sucks.. i bought the game on sale for some time ago and didn´t play it. Now after i upgraded my mobo and cpu to recent Gen i wanted to try it out ^^) thats sad. haha

The crash on newer hardware ( Intel 10th and 11th gen ) is probably caused by outdated OpenSSL versions.

Originally posted by web source:

OpenSSL* 1.0.2 beta (Jun 2014) to OpenSSL 1.0.2k (Jan 2017) contain bugs that either cause a crash or bad SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) values on processors with the SHA extensions, such as the recently released 10th Generation processor. Both bugs were fixed years ago; however, any application that uses the old version directly, or as one of its dependencies, will fail. Unreal Engine* version 4.13 (Sept 2016) to version 4.21 (Dec 2018) contains the old version of OpenSSL, so any game built using those versions is possibly affected.

This also happened to many other games using UE, including PAVLOV.
Good news is that there's an easy fix to the problem:
CRASH FIX [docs.google.com]
It's done in under 1 minute and has no side effects at all.

In case the Google Doc disappears, the magic is adding a new system environment variable!
Variable name: OPENSSL_ia32cap
Variable value: ~0x200000200000000

Enjoy!

@hannahholland2005
Are you sure you added a new System Variable and NOT a new User Variable?

Steam marked the GOOGLE DOCS site as potentially malicious...LOL
