System.AccessViolationException
Solved
I've run into an issue that I've seen people have in the past but I haven't seen any sort of definitive resolution for it. Space Engineers is crashing, randomly, with an error of:
2024-12-18 21:25:28.031 - Thread: 11 -> Exception occurred: System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. at SharpDX.Direct3D11.InputAssemblerStage.SetVertexBuffers(Int32 startSlot, Int32 numBuffers, IntPtr vertexBuffersOut, IntPtr stridesRef, IntPtr offsetsRef) at VRage.Render11.RenderContext.Internal.MyRenderContextState.SetVertexBuffersFast(Int32 startSlot, IVertexBuffer vb0, IVertexBuffer vb1, IVertexBuffer vb2) at VRageRender.MyRenderingPass.BindProxyGeometry(MyRenderableProxy proxy) at VRageRender.MyDepthPass.RecordCommandsInternal(MyRenderableProxy proxy) at VRageRender.MyRenderingPass.RecordCommands(MyRenderableProxy proxy, IConstantBuffer cb, Int32 constantOffset) at VRageRender.MyRenderingWork.Render(MyRenderingPass pass) at VRageRender.MyRenderingWork.DoWork() at ParallelTasks.DependencyBatch.ExecuteSingleJob() at ParallelTasks.DependencyBatch.WorkerLoop() at ParallelTasks.WorkItem.DoWork(Int32 expectedID) at ParallelTasks.PrioritizedScheduler.Worker.WorkerLoop() at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunInternal(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx) at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx) at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state)I have tried literally every solution that I have found from users on Steam, Reddit and here and to no avail. Attached is the most recent Space Engineers log showing the crash. I've even reinstalled windows, and I still crash. I usually get about 15 minutes of play before the crash happens. Any and all help would be appreciated.

I went through troubleshooting with the company that made my PC and after several tests on memory and GPU, and even replacing the GPU we came to conclusion that the BIOS needed updating. I updated the BIOS and have since not had any issues with any games. For reference I use an ASUS Prime Z790.

Hello,
Since updating BIOS I have not had crashes in Space Engineers, or any other game in which I've had this issue. It appears as if the issue is resolved.
