Warhammer: Darktide Dev Tracker

Hi @Bzoargh

This specific crash is on our radar and should be fixed in our next update. As I understand it, this crash is occurring due to a specific sound device being set, then if the device is removed/disconnected after Darktide has been closed, upon relaunching it isn’t recognising the selected sound device and is crashing.

In the meantime, you should be able to resolve this crash by removing your Darktide Appdata directory (please note, by doing so you will lose any custom settings/configurations e.g. keybindings).

To do so:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to: AppData\Roaming\Fatshark
4. Delete the entire ‘Darktide’ directory
5. Restart Darktide as normal

Hi @PureSightt,

Sorry to hear this.

Could you please provide us with your recent console logs and launcher log files so we can take a look?

Hm okay could you please provide us with your recent console logs, launcher log and your user_settings.config file?

These can all be located in your Darktide AppData directory:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark\Darktide

Thanks in advance!

Hi @hep,

To confirm, do you have Steam overlay enabled?

It may be that your Anti-Virus/Firewall is blocking access to store content from our CDN. Please ensure that you have appropriate exceptions in place for Darktide for both your Anti-Virus and Firewall.

You’ll need to add the following exceptions:

• Darktide.exe in \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 DARKTIDE\binaries
• EasyAntiCheat_EOS.exe in \Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat_EOS

There was some Steam disruption at this time. You should be able to play without any trouble by now.

Steam was down around this time. All should be back up and running as normal by now!

Do you happen to have the same Curio equipped in separate slots?

Could you share your crash report here, please?

Is it possible your Anti-Virus/Firewall is quarantining some of the NVIDIA DLLs?

This is mod-related - Crosshair Remap by the looks of it. Hope this helps!

Hello! Could you tell me which Anti-Virus/Firewall you’re using please?

Could you try removing your AppData for Darktide, and see if there’s any improvement please?:

1. Press the Windows key + R
2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
3. Navigate to AppData\Roaming\Fatshark
4. Delete the entire ‘Darktide’ directory
5. Re-launch as normal

Apologies, I don’t have an answer for you right now, but I’ve queried this with our Engine Developers.

This should be resolved the next time you log in. Please let me know if you have any problems.

May I confirm that you have already tried deleting your Darktide AppData?

This should now be resolved for you the next time you log in. Please let me know if you have any problems.
