Issue Type (Required):
Crash - During Play
Issue Description (Required):
These engine errors gotta get fixed somehow
Win 11 Clean Install
GPU clean install using DDU
All Latest Drivers
RTX 3050 Laptop
32 GB RAM
4GB VRAM
AMD Ryzen 5800h 8c 16t
Tried with and without mods
Tried setting 1 to 14 worker threads. Still crashes.
I face all kinds of errors including the general one and even backend errors just like everyone. I play Darktide for hours. Feels like it just overloads the GPU to cause this engine crash.

The logs are a bit wild due to the mods, but the most commonly occurring issue appears to be GPU-related. Could you run through any remaining solutions here, please?:

Ran without mods and got a 4001 with Backend Error
-
Followed by 1016 error code 1
-
1005 right after completing the mission
-
Disconnected from mission 2001

After completing a mission, I got loaded back to the lobby. I opened Steam and got hit with: GUID: a7ffeced-0cc8-478c-843f-69656b358f77
Log File:
Info Type:
[Script Error]: scripts/utilities/profile_utils.lua:468: Expected colon but found T_OBJ_END at character 6864
Seems to be some dropped packets here, leading up to the disconnection. I’d recommend playing without mods now 1.8.6 is live, and seeing if there’s any improvement as this hotfix includes changes to maximum packet sizes.
Should the engine-related crashes persist, please be sure to share the crash report or corresponding console log here.
