I can’t find any topics on this error message. Hoping someone can give me a hand. No response from tech support area yet…
I’ve done this, multiple times. Reinstalled game, onto different hard drives. Nothing seems to help. Graphics are set to medium with all Nvidia stuff turned off. Good rig, meeting/exceeding all requirements. 3090 ti, 13900k processor.
/sigh
Remove the game, clean the registry, there are free registry cleaners, delete files related to DK in App Data. You can also delete some files from the folder and repair the installation. This error has nothing to do with your hardware configuration, rather it has to do with the game files
Exclude the game folder from your antivirus if you are using anything else than windows defender.
Don’t use anything else than windows defender if you do.
Thank you for the responses.
Unfortunately, after doing all of that, I still get the same error. I used to be able to force my way in by crashing through multiple times, but now I can’t get past character selection screen without the same error popping up. I only use windows defender, so that’s not it.
I just don’t get how the game can run pretty fine since closed beta then get to this point of unplayability. I can’t even get back a refund since I’ve put in many hours into the game already.
Willing to entertain any other suggestions. Thanks again!
Also, I noticed my appdata folder (after reinstallation) has less files than your screen. Showing mine in case it helps any.
it looks like the game has no access to disk memory and can’t make changes or save anything, maybe try to run the game as an admin. if you have the steam version, then you can easily get to the game folder through steam applications. right click on the game, then select properties, then local files and finally click on browse
Did you try cleaning the Oodles out of your computer case?
Running darktide.exe as admin runs into a “backend error” when I get to the screen after the intro video. I’m guessing that it’s not showing steam credentials when I go this route? I have steam and the launcher set to run as admin as well. No luck.
