Just was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this. Here is what's been happening since Alpha 20. 

Launch 7 Days to die through Steam>Play the game> exit the game> 7 days to die freezes> Steam Freezes>wait....>open task manager to kill the game> nothing happens> Kill Steam> Try to put the computer to sleep> The screen goes black the the computer stays on>Hard reset the PC by holding the power button down>Boot the PC> Start all over again.

This is specific to 7 Days to die, I can play other games from steam, close them and put my computer to sleep without a problem. 7 Days to die crashes itself and steam when trying to exit.

Thanks

FYI, this is a little off topic, but i've also experienced some floating trees and irregular terrain that would change height as I rode my bike. Looked like I was driving into a mountain, but then it would get smaller and keep moving back until it was gone. I bet this is related to the floating trees. Hopefully the logs help with that as well.

It looks like you have A19 files mixed in with A20. I’d do a cleaning, uninstall/reinstall using the procedure posted when you click on the blue banner at the top of this page. See if that solves your problem.

 
Update: Even though I cleaned all game files, and reinstalled the game when alpha 20 exp came out, I still had these issues. The fix was to clean and reinstall again when beta came out...Really sucks since I had a great game going on..... Either way, I hope this helps anyone else. Thanks Star69.
