CTD on Steam

[CMDR Intellektfresser]

Hello,
as of this morning the steam version of Elite won't start for me. CTD as soon as the shader generation starts. With Shades turned off, the crash occurs on planet generation. The epic version launches fine.
Anybody else encountering this problems?

I had it from about 08:30 and it cured itself by about 09:10 BST. The only thing I did was reboot and change accounts and still got failures. Got back in in the end.

Same here. AMD/Nvidia System. Steam Account crashes everytime. Epic works fine. Drivers and gameversion uptodate. Tried game repair multiple times, no effect.

 

[CMDR Intellektfresser]

For me no sorting out with restarts of steam, the whole system or validating files on steam or the launcher.

Sadly.

 

[SpaceLogistic]

Sadly same here again.

 

[Grokwix]

Same here. Crash to desktop a few seconds after entering the game.
tried with and without Steam.

The same Problem here

 

[CMDR Intellektfresser]

Seems to be a pattern here. Let's try to ask someone that might help.
Trying to summon... @sallymorganmoore
Pretty please?

For me, the error occurs randomly:
- during startup game
- Generation of shaders
- Generation system of planets
- Loading the profile of the pilot
- Game inputs
- Routing
- Entries into super cruse.

Reinstalling the game, verifying the files do not solve the problem.
After logging in with steam data on the Epic version, the game works fine, strangely, even steam sees it as running.

Same here.. Game crashes at the same point every time.

 

[CMDR Intellektfresser]

I don't even make it to the main menu. But that is consistent. ^^

 

[SpaceLogistic]

Me too. My game crashes while loading planet generation system before 80%.

And it gets better: now the crash-report-tool sometimes crashes itself during upload.

I use the ED Launcher rather than Steam and it consistently crashes during startup at the preparing shaders stage. Game files verified twice, multiple reboots of the PC. Ticket raised with support and awaiting news.

seems like a network server blade has fallen over after maintenance I got no problem myself in London
using fd launcher only

continual crashes here too - non-Steam, full fibre in darkest Yorkshire

 

[Support Luna]

Hey all. We're aware of this crash, and it's being looked into at the moment.

 

[atik2]

yeah hopefully fix soon, also on FD launcher in west yorkshire and cannot even get out of a station

I just launched the Steam version with no problem. Greece, if it's helpful.

 

[alexzk]

Just started OK, Estonia. Launched the game as /EDO /AUTORUN, closed launcher once game popped without pressing there button "loging steam".

My instances of this are weird. I get it every time, but only when I exit the game. The only reason I know it's a CTD is because the error reporting window opens. At least I don't have to close the game through task manager at the moment.
