So Im back. Nothing has improved. I was one of the insanely lucky few to have an order go through and actually get an Nvidia 3080 gpu. 80% of the reason for purchasing the card was to eliminate crashing thinking it was something with my 5700XT. Crashing has not improved at all. In fact, sometimes I'm lucky if I go 6 or 7 minutes without another crash.

The crash reports are sent directly to the programmers, and are reviewed when preparing new game updates.

CrashDump files are (usually) created in the install folder '..\SteamApps\common\Divinity Original Sin 2\DefEd\bin'. Zip a few together, along with the gold.log file in the same folder, and email it to supportdos2@larian.com. Alternately, you can email / post / PM a Dropbox or Google drive link, etc.

Did you try a lower FPS cap, such as 60?
Did any of the troubleshooting (lower graphics settings, windowed mode, a clean boot, etc) seem to affect the frequency of the crashes?


I have tried lowering the frame cap to 60 in case it was some kind of weird conflict with my monitor. I have also tried a fresh install of the game. Neither have reduced the frequencies of crashing. In fact Ive even tried changing things in Regedit according to these posts due to supposed conflicts with certain game engines-

Nothing has worked. The only change after changing over to the 3080 is that more often I have gotten a specific Direct X error after a crash saying something along the lines of 'Device removed' which is why I tried the Regedit solutions above. I just now experienced yet another crash. Here is one of the crash reports from Event Viewer if that helps-

Its a testament to how much I like the game that Ive continued to play it after dealing with rampant crashing where any gaming session is half dealing with research or making up lost progress due to a crash. The main reason I wanted to play through DOS2 was to finish it before Baldurs Gate 3 but if that game has anything approaching the same issue, count me out.
