Frequent CTD on foot around Odyssey settlements - no issue on tracker, just me?

I've recently picked the game back up since update 15 dropped and getting back to try and engineer FPS weapons/suits and it's not going well.

I've now given up on looting settlements as I can't go long before I get a CTD and with the 'relog' protection that means as soon as I CTD the settlement I just took 15 minutes to get to is now empty and I can't loot and need to head out.

It seems if I stay away from a settlement I'm ok - no crashes elsewhere so far, looting other planet surfaces/POI causes no issues; but if I'm in a settlement I risk a random CTD at any moment. I (tried) to play for about an hour last night and got 3 CTD all upon trying to explore for loot at an Odyssey settlement. 3 different settlements on 3 different plants in 3 difference systems = 3 separate crashes. I can usually get about 5-10 minutes of walking around, but sure seems everytime I drop my loot off at the SRV and re-enter a building it's nearly a gauranteed crash.

I expected to see an issue regarding crashing on planet surfaces all over the issue tracker, the forum, or reddit and I don't.... so is this really just me?
 
A few days ago I had several CTDs while fighting Thargoids above a settlement.
Can't be sure of what caused it, but submitted the report every single time.
 
IME, I might have a few an evening, and then none for weeks.

I guess if it's persistent it might be a good idea to verify the game files and/or reset the graphics folder.
 
Thanks for the suggestions! I think it was something with my shader catch as resetting it seems to have resolved things. After that I was able to play a full session tonight without a single crash and was able to visit and relieve many settlements of loot they didn't need.
