Can’t go near water beefalo

I have that same bug on PS4
(lua 710, but otherwise the same)

well, to be precise, my first error about Waterbeefalos is about their sound, where I got a showstopping error message whenever the game happened to call for the sound in field. This happened at night. But later, at day, I succeded in sailing close to them, jump ashore, and jump into the boat again, before arriving at the exact same error as Miachan90 was describing above. 

I have the same bug. it happened randomly yesterday. i was playing ROG for 200 game days with no problem. then I traveled to shipwrencked and the first 30 days i could go next to water beffaloo, then it started crashing. im playing on the ps4

Same thing is happening to me.  This is one of my most favorite games of all.  It makes the game unplayable for me.

Emergency update-fix! 

Before this update the whole game worked relatively OK.

This issue was also happening to me, only triggering when I was near a small mangrove biome with beefalo in it, didnt even see any beefalo when the crash message popped up.

Shipwreck crashes quite often, but I can find the pattern or reproduce.  Until this bug, consistently crashing near water beefalo and something about the sound.   

same thing is happening to me this is the first time ive ever played shipwrecked and i feel like im gonna miss out on stuff if i go out of my way to avoid the beefalo

Same thing happened to me, same situation. Water beefalos nearby will crash the game (on PS5). Beefalos were in heat and as soon as I go near them it crashes. Can reproduce it every time if it starts happening (Day 23 right now in this game) Makes it unplayable!

Update: I could get near the beefalos from another side and saw they spawned normal beefalo babies, maybe that's the reason.

New Information.

Hi, someone who says that bug was about the beeffus sounds help me and maybe I can help someone who is looking for a solution! If you putt the sounds of the game off, you can go to another place in the game and get away from the beeffus and they crashed sound, it was the only thing that helped me get out of this bug and same my game s2 hope it helps someone! 

Estou com o mesmo problema sempre acontece isso depois do dia 20, acho que é algo relacionado a os filhotes dos befalos sempre quando nascem isso ocorre, as vezes fecha mesmo que eu não esteja próximo a eles

This problem still persists. Really hope this can be fixed, because the setting to exclude water beefalo from your world ALSO doesn't seem to work. So there is no way to really play the game now without frequent crashes.
