Hi Vitiate, this particular crash appears to be mod-related, but I understand you’ve mentioned the crashes persist without mods.
Please could you reproduce the crash without mods, and share the associated crash report with us?
Where do I pull the crash report from?
It’s the same as what you’ve shared here - a new one is created each time you crash 
Got it. Is there any other way to pull the info?
In many of the instances it’s crashing my computer and restarting it and so I can’t submit these any of these because they don’t show up again.
This is why I ran all the other hardware tests and noted that I can play other games just fine. For example, I played Borderlands 4 for almost 10 hours over the weekend. Never crashed once.
Then I played darktide yesterday after reinstalling, for 2 havoc games. Then immediately all the problems returned where I crash upon lobby, then I can’t even get past the character load screen. Then I disabled mods and had the same issues - crash upon load screen or immediately going into mourning star.
Also, if I didn’t mention - once I’m in the game, it’s fine. I can actually complete the havoc mission until the end. So it’s purely localized to lobbies and character screens.
I even deleted all of my load outs and remade a handful of them just to verify it didn’t have anything to do with the character load out bug mentioned in the notes.
Okay I managed to gather a snippet before crashing:
The bundle in question is: 48f0f973de2e35a6
Based on your description of the computer crashing during play, this shows that the issue may be occurring at the hardware or driver level. Darktide operates within protected memory, so it should normally crash to the desktop if the problem were limited to Darktide itself. The PC becoming unresponsive points to a deeper issue.
Even though this currently only happens in Darktide, it is particularly demanding and may be revealing an underlying instability in your system. These kinds of issues often begin to appear in other applications over time.
I recommend trying the solutions linked below to help identify or resolve the issue. Alternatively, if you prefer, I can assist you with a refund instead.
