[posila] [0.17.34] Crash on startup (Steam)

[Felesan]

Just bought the game, and such things.
The first time the game started well, started a new game, played a few minutes.
And when I launched it again in the evening - it became crashing.
Updating the drivers, cleaning the mods folder, reinstalling the game and restarting the computer did not help.

Thanks for the report, unfortunatelly, the logs don't contain any information about a crash.

Can you please download Procdump.zip
Unzip it, run dump_on_exception.bat, confirm Microsoft's EULA and then launch Factorio through Steam (don't run Factorio.exe directly). It should create Factorio.exe_######_######.dmp. If it doesn't, try to run dump_on_terminate.bat instead. Zip the dmp file and upload it here, please.

Procdump.zip contains ProcDump from Microsoft Sysinternals (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sys ... 96900.aspx) and bat files to run procdump with parameters that make it create memory dump when Factorio.exe crashes or terminates.

Thanks for the answer, downloaded the file, did everything as you said.
And here even more strange things began.
When I run the "dump_on_exception.bat", the game loads and everything is fine. o_O
If I run without running a .bat, it crashes as usual.

Thanks. Have you tried to run it with the .bat again after it crashed without it? Maybe it just didn't crash first time after starting your computer similar to how you were able to play yesterday?
