With 3.28.0e game is crashing ever few minutes

Hello i am still crashing like the above stated
The frequent crashes are suddenly back for me. No idea why. Hope it sorts itself out like yesterday.
So, if you're on linux, change to GE-Proton10-34, seems much better than on native Proton-CachyOS.

Thank you very much for this information. I didn't know you could change this; I'm still new to Linux. GE-Proton10-34 didn't help, but Proton Experimental seems to have improved the situation.

I've played today for few hours and didn't crashed once. So I guess it has to do something with recent translation layer changes.
Ongoing for me on Arch Linux. This started for me after week 1. I've tried every Steam compatibility layer with no luck.

It seems to pick up in the afternoon for some reason, 8:00 PM my time. I'm not sure if that's just because I'm playing more in the afternoon or what.

Randomly in maps, in my hideout, and when I relaunch, it generally crashes again within 30 seconds in Oriath or my hideout. Very annoying. It's making it impossible to play.

I verified my temps are perfectly fine, I've closed all other processes, no luck at all. I really hope somebody finds something that will help us.
Well, it started crashing again. After patch 3.28.0e with Proton-GE and Proton-CachyOS.

My usual verify files + remove shadercache helps for few minutes.

Also, I'm on Intel + R9070XT (Mesa 26.0.3). What hardware do you guys have? Maybe it's AMD thing.

Please turn on log for proton (PROTON_LOG=1 in launch options) and check if you also have this as a last entry:
"
pid 17900 != 17899, skipping destruction (fork without exec?)

Same here; it has started again. It doesn't make sense, but it seems the crashes happen a lot more in the morning (it's UTC 9:00 at the moment).

I have the same entry in my log:
"
pid 16669 != 16668, skipping destruction (fork without exec?)


Edit: Now the game doesn't even start. It's just a black screen after pressing 'Play'.

I am on a 5800x3d/6800 and 64gb ram so it could be an AMD thing. Seems good again this morning so far so I will report back if it starts again this afternoon like it usually does for me

EDIT: Nevermind I crashed right after this reply. It's just all the time now, it's been a fun league :P

I have no idea how to pinpoint the issue. I also noticed that it crashes more often in the morning (6:00 - 8:00 CET). Sometimes it stops by itself, sometimes deleting cache and verifying files helps.

Today I had the game opened for few hours (not even playing, just in the background) and it didn't crashed. Then I closed the game, went away from my pc, came back and instant crashes as soon as I enter town.
