Title: 1.3 preview crashing at launch
Post by: wryles on July 15, 2021, 10:37:35 PM
When I try to launch the 1.3 preview on steam the RimWorld logo pops up with a red exclamation point on it before promptly crashing. I've restarted my computer, deleted all game files and reinstalled, updated drivers, rolled back my graphics driver to a more stable version, nothing is working. Here are the logs I get from the crashes.

error.log: https://pastebin.com/SyvsXfL1
player.log: https://pastebin.com/0EsbSeKY

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
the famous error
"UnityPlayer.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)" i never managed to solved.
Refering to the posting

Do you use Citrix Workspace or similar ? Try to deactivate/uninstall that.
Or search self for that error msg. and try sort them by date.

No and I've read all those threads. Issue seems to be continuing with the live release of 1.3 as well.

I was having the same issue, found a fix finally.  Go here https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=4805.0 and scroll down to line 4 and download the  Delete_RimWorld_Registry_entries.reg file.  Run it, and see if that fixes it.  I hope so, so we can all enjoy the game :)

Same issue here, the download fixed it. I closed from fullscreen on an external monitor.
