Game crashes to desktop after Kickstarter logo

huhu guys,

 

im having a big issue with pillars of eternity crashing from time to time, too.

 

It went well for some time but now it crashes again. At the beginning I fixed it by turning off tooltips and tutorials. Not it went out of hand.

 

My Sys specs are:

Intel i7 4700HQ

Geforce GTX 770M

8GB RAM

Windows 8.1 64bit Home

 

I hope this helps. If you need more, just let me know.

 

The game's fun, though. :yes: Keep up the good work.

When wanting to upload crash/output logs and save files please attach them directly to your post by using the More Reply Options button as I cannot download things from external sites.

 

Thanks!

I have the same problem as the original poster (crash to desktop after getting to the Kickstarter splash screen during startup).  WIndows 7, 64 bit.  100% reproducability. 

 

I found this forum post from during beta that outlined the exact same problem, but the suggested resolution actions (deleting "corrupted" windows fonts) did not work for me. 

 

Also, see this external post on seemingly the same issue.

Game crashes on start, error log says this:

gameoverlayrenderer.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
  in module gameoverlayrenderer.dll at 0023:6cecb568.

When trying to run it in Steam. It doesn't run even if I turn off the steam game overlay, Raptr overlay or any other apps that might cause things to happen. Initially it was stuck on Steam "Starting Pillars of Destiny..." loop where it closed the "Starting..." box suddenly and then started it again and again endlessly. I then verified all the contents which took a while, but it's still not working proper. :(

 

I attached all the error logs from various tries into this. I assume the info is pretty similar in all of them.

Hi Rezorrand, 

 

Do you still get this error when running just the .exe as an admin?

 

Thanks!

Ah, my issue was apparently due to lingering .dll hook to Tridef (3D monitor stuff), I restarted Steam and it started working again.

Forgot to add my error logs to my previous post.  Also, it's rather annoying to try to post a message in a support forum just to be told that my post will be need to be approved before being shown.

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi Slack, 

 

Unfortunately Pillars of Eternity requires at least 4 GB of memory to run. For optimal performance,at least 8 GB is recommended, running on a 64-bit operating system.
