Hi.

I have another thing you are welcome to try, and get back to me with wether it does any difference or not. It is to disable the mesh streamer, this will cause the game to require much more VRAM than usual, so if you have low VRAM (6Gb or so) this might not work for you.

Anyway, to disable the mesh streamer, browse to the games steam files.  
Locate the file settings\_common.ini in the folder bundle\application\_settings  
In that file, locate the section that says: mesh\_streamer\_settings = { … }  
and change the “disable = false” to “disable = true” and save the file.

while you’re at it, or rather, if the mesh streamer hack doesn’t do anything for you, you can also try to disable the multi threaded texture streamer by changing the value  
threaded\_streamer = true to threaded\_streamer = false in the section called feedback\_streamer\_settings = { … }

Disabling the threaded texture streamer will most likely degrade your performance slightly. Just so you are aware. But I am interested in seeing if any of these actions helps for you who experience these crashes all the time.
