A force check yielded no errors, so the pigg file seems valid to the program yet the error message is there. CRC for the file: 2AF135DD
On Demand Patching turned OFF. So always got the whole patched game.
That maybe the case for you,but not for the rest of us. In your case, that might be easily fixed by trying a fresh install.
I saw you said a force verify didnt work.
As for me and probably the rest of us, we arent getting cryptic reports to know whats going on.
Altho i did get a report for first time yesterday similar to that of nepsthen's, being :

And then it says to check online for solution or to close program.
I believe God created the universe, because he knew we wanted to explore. So, he made us a playground...
Gameclient crashes when I try to do anything other than stand around. Crashes during load screens, crashes during PVE's, crashes during solo missions, doesn't matter just gameclient crashes all the time...
So, I give up, i'll do my daily minigame and logoff, and wait for next thursdays patch and hope that fixes it.
didnt know about that thread, and im one who can not be bothered spending a day searching thru pages and pages in a forum looking. If it aint on the first page, then its buried
However, im about to login to the game, see how it goes, if it crashes, i might try rolling back my video drivers by nearly 2 yrs lol.
Cryptic needs to get this sorted tho as the highest priority

That is probably because there is multiple threads about crashes and no sticky thread.
Makes one wonder why there is no sticky thread.... :rolleyes:
They should merge all crash threads to a sticky one..... and give us some answers.
A test server is supposed to be used to properly test patches before patching anything....
The older drivers did not work for me, in fact it seemed even worse. Neither did a fresh install and multiple verifys from steam and arc. The only thing I noticed was each time I crashed, Steam would validate and download 2 files every time, but I couldnt find how to tell what they were.
I refuse to make anymore changes to my pc just for the sake of STO, and anyhow I am not sure what else I can do. The lack of communication from Cryptic I am feeling means I am on my own and only a upgrade to my video card might save this situation. Always tried to be positive in the past, but lately I have lost lot faith in this game and how things are going.

yeah, i wouldnt get another card, cayse you will end up having the same issue. This is cryptics problem and they need to sort it out

i was referring to the one particular thread, but yes should be a sticky and merged. But, the thread i created lasted time on crashes got merged with a server outage thread, I have no idea why they would do that when they are 2 totally different problems lol:rolleyes:

rolling back drivers didnt work
time for cryptic to fix this problem, as i am sure some of us are sick of it crashing all the time
Edit :
So, since rolling my drivers back didnt work, i reinstalled the latest drivers. As i was doing that, i remember some time ago reading in a forum somewhere, that the 3D controller driver and the 3D driver for Nvidia were causing problems, so, upon remembering this, as i was doing the reinstall of my drivers, i done a custom install, (as i always do because i dont use geforce experience as that also caused me problems a while back, again read that in a forum somewhere too, uninstalled it, fixed problem), so all i was actually installing this time was the video drivers, and audio drivers.
Since doing this a few hours ago, not one crash. So, if you have 3D controller and 3D drivers installed, might be worth a try in getting rid of them.
OR cryptic looks into why our 3D drivers and game client are clashing.
Sounds strange this might be the cause tho, as i dont play the game in 3D or in simulated 3D.

Same problem. All I get is a windows box coming up. Gameclient.exe has stopped working and windows checks for solutions. Been this way since ann patch.
However, after the crash all my graphics are a bit "greyed out", not as crisp. Again Niv card here also.
If I wanted to crash, Crystalline Entity is the place to do it. I can no longer play this instance without the game crashing. I'm using it to test various option settings to see if anything affects the client.

I am doing the exact same thing, this way I can tell if I should waste anymore time playing I tried Craig's last post about not using the 3d stuff and removing the Geforce experience as well, but I still crash almost as soon as I start firing in CCA. I dont believe it is related to combat as I have crashed transwarping and just standing around doin nothing just not as often as running Crystalline. Even tho it didnt work, TY to Craig for posting your efforts. If only Cryptic would say at least you are looking into this.
Due to the constant crashing I have changed my tactics. You have no idea how upsetting it is to see people stand around on voth ground while you work. So when I work and "always" get disconnected due to a server glitch.. I have started to stand around myself. Now imagine how that makes me feel. Then that anger and rage builds up.... You are not making players happy.
I seem to have the same problem a lot of you guys are having.. If I try to do CCA it is a guaranteed crash.. Then I have random game crashes while not even doing anything more complicated than warping from point A to B.. No pattern to it other than the CCA. I have tried force verify about 5-7 times , doesn't seem to help. The game will freeze and windows will say program not responding, at which time all I can do is close it out and re-start/ re-log back in.
I am also afflicted with the disappearing boffs, this also seems to happen at random. And the latest that really BUGS me, is the delay when clicking on a boff ability/power. Hit EMP shields and by the time it kicks in , it is already too late, nuthin left to do but watch my ship get blown up :mad:
I really wish they would hold up on any more new content and stuff and just FIX what is already in game or at least try to fix it..
so much for removing the 3D drivers, just had another crash...it was good while it lasted.
If this problem is anything to do with the last time we had crashes, i think it may ave something to do with the graphics ingame because resetting the graphics options ingame solved the problem for some, but not solving it this time around.This issue will only get to the point of no one being able to play if its not fixed soon:(

I'm crashing 1-2 times per hour on average right now, this is getting ridiculous.
Sometimes it's loading in to busy zones, sometimes during combat and sometimes just flying through sector space, there's definitely something that needs to be fixed. :mad:
On average I crash (back to desktop) every 2 hours of gameplay. Mostly while switching maps (warping in / out of systems / sectors; beaming up / down for ground), but sometimes even without any action of mine.
As I'm running on a laptop most of the time, I'm not going to change drivers. The system is about 4 years old now. No big problems before the anniversary update. Thus I have no reason but to believe that the latest game changes have been the cause of this problem.
I rarely crash doing episodes or in social zones, but crash frequently in STFs and 100% of the time in Crystalline. This ruins the game for me because I need Crystalline for it's Radiogenic particles.

Post 2/12 patch, still crashing randomly. Would really be nice for a dev to acknowledge this issue like they did when it was happening during the WW event. Last time I tried to run ust to Dust I crashed 3-4 times before being able to complete the mission, and I am supposed to run it 3-4 times? Might take a few months to get a full set on just one character! :mad:
Update on my end. It seems this last patch resolved the crashing issues for me. I suspected it had something to do with the UI and maybe the "fix" for the UI resolved the crashing too.

Glad things are finally working for you, but I am still crashing to desktop on a regular basis.
