Thanks for the response. I’ll put Darktide down for now and come back to it later. Sending the team positive vibes in hopes of a quick resolution. ---

I’m in a similar boat. My Darktide experience has, thus far, been more stable than most I’ve heard of, but today in particular it’s just been crash after crash. I haven’t updated anything, installed anything, changed any hardware or drivers, nor adjusted my settings, and the game files verify just fine. ## GUID: 7cd358b4-ab79-4b4f-b465-aeefaade1acf Log File: Info Type: * * * [crash\_dump-2022-12-05-17.29.32-7cd358b4-ab79-4b4f-b465-aeefaade1acf.dmp](https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/uploads/short-url/vFbTUUNORL5EAkzvHleOzNLRmxN.dmp) (825.9 KB) [console-2022-12-05-17.29.32-7cd358b4-ab79-4b4f-b465-aeefaade1acf.log](https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/uploads/short-url/1uTHhyREG26jv8JMbjIsU1SxcXN.log) (180.8 KB) ---

I have been having the similar problem. At least @FatsharkLev passed your reports on, he has so far never returned to mine after initial contact to let me know if my issue was passed on or not, even after I clarified and gave multiple days of additional logs (and @'d him asking for an update) > [@Crashing Every Single Time I Load Into a Map (Game Unplayable!)](https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/t/crashing-every-single-time-i-load-into-a-map-game-unplayable/63754/4): > > Same Problem, I have 100% Crash Rate Whenever i enter a Mission.

@SilentCynic, looks like you’re running into a GPU-related crash, which is the most common crash type players are experiencing with Darktide currently. I suggest running through our GPU crash solutions here, as you may see some improvement. Though, unfortunately a wider fix is required on our side, which we’re working with our hardware partners to do. > **[\[PC\] How to Resolve GPU Crashes in Darktide](https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/7709667528349--PC-How-to-Resolve-GPU-Crashes-in-Darktide)** > > Please rest assured we are actively monitoring the crashes being experienced by our players in Darktide and are working hard to address as many of these issues as quickly as possible. > To help us im... @orvis25, apologies! My notifications and inbox are completely rammed, and things occasionally slip through the net! I’ve replied to your original post now. ---

Yeah, I believe I posted in the other, GPU-related crash thread as well. The solutions in the article you linked are ones I tried before I posted on the forums about the issue in question, but they don’t seem to have made a difference in my case. Still, thank you nonetheless, and best of luck on your end of things! ---

After this 1.0.14 update, I can’t even make it 15 seconds in the Mourningstar anymore. Attaching logs. Out of my 8 attempts, I managed to get into one mission. I crashed immediately upon firing at the first enemy. Anecdotally, I’m seeing a bunch of crashes reported from 3000 series Nvidia cards, and I’m on a 3080ti. The logs from 1.0.14 look similar to the one I posted about originally. Maybe a Gfx memory leak?
