Game Crash on New World Creation


ItsBear
  • Branch: Live Branch Version: Windows Pending

Game client crashes on world loading screen.

I've tried restarting the computer, checking all my drivers, deleting the old installation then reinstalling to a different drive, and reinstalling Steam and repeating the process. Still the game keeps crashing.


Steps to Reproduce
The game boots, I select "new game" and click "start game", then the client goes to the loading screen for a second, and immediately crashes.



User Feedback


It appears the file system is having trouble accessing this file in your Documents directory: 

"Documents\Klei\OxygenNotIncluded\WorldGenSimSave.dat"

Can you try deleting that file before running the game? It is a temporary file so it is safe to delete

I am having the same problem as OP, where the game will crash most likely either in the loading screen after world selection, or when trying to load a save file. I have also been through the whole troubleshooting guide, as well as deleted the .dat file as recommended above. I've sent a handful of bug reports through the game, but this issue is difficult to describe as a bug in general. What is extra weird is that I can play this game fine on my laptop (fine being until mid/late game when the processor is really put to work and the wheezing begins), but my desktop with much better hardware is the one that cannot even boot the game.

@niur Can you post your output_log.txt?  Also do you have OneDrive or any other cloud service enabled that might be fighting over file locks? Thanks for the report!
