Frequent crashes in multiplayer

[-X-]

Version

V2.0 b294

Platform

Windows

Hi,

I'm playing multiplayer with my girlfriend (I'm host, she will connect to my IP) - and we are experiencing quite frequent crashes (every 2-3 hours or so my host game crashes).

It is kind of annoying, because if this happens when travelling, we will respawn quite far away from our vehicle (vehicle is usually quite far back) - having to backtrack on foot, just to continue with our day

There is no real info I could give out, the game stops responding (either there will be a small window with some kind of progressbar or it goes straight to the desktop) and crashes. I'm experiencing this on 2 different computers (HW-wise) so I think I can rule out the hardware - also other games run without an issue. Both PCs are AMD Ryzens. I was experiencing it when I launched game through steam, I'm experiencing it when I'm using 7DTD Mod Launcher. It was happening in the last 1.4 and all the three 2.0 patches.

Crashes happen seemingly randomly - sometimes when on mission, sometimes when travelling etc, but alwayis in the local multiplayer. I don't think I encountered this in the singleplayer mode (although I did not spent that much time in singleplayer).

What would be the best way to help you get to the bottom of this? I have multiple crashdumps from the game - is there a safe way I could send these out? I cannot really "pastebin" the dmp files as they are binary in nature... One (last) log example is attached, I have many more.

Thanks

Thank you for reporting.
Looking at your log, you seem to be having a lot of issues with the mods that you have installed. Please see if you still get the crashes without any mods installed.

Hi, unfortunately the crashes were happening even with the vanilla version of the game

rigconsraint bug can definately crash a server, i thought this issue was fixed 2.0?

i would recommend to make a custom profile, delete any premade profile you been playing on, rigconstraint bug only seems to happen on premades,
1) start the game from your library
2) select show game launcher
3) click in the tools tab
4) click on clean game files and check all circles (only check player profile if you dont want to lose maps)
5) click clean
MAINTENANCE: integrity
1.right click game in steam choose propertys
2.choose local files tab
3.choose verify integrity wait for download

I will check that out By custom profile you mean the character I'm playing as, right?

yeah, also you need not worry about any server progress being lost, once you make a new profile every server you play on will redownload your server info to new profile.

So I finally got to more 7DTD. I created new custom profile, however I still see those errors in logs and I got multiple crashes, too...

I will try "clean game files" tomorrow & see if that will change anything.

New logs:

The third one is the strangest - I got crash basically immediatelly upon trying to load the game. Log complaining about an allocation failure ("Could not allocate memory: System out of memory!") - but then I saw this:

Trying to allocate: 18446744044919682648B with 16 alignment. MemoryLabel: Serialization

~18 exabytes (if my math is correct) is quite an ask for my computer - I have just 96G so...

Btw this is the latest build - v2.0 b295.
