Game Crashes within 30 seconds of starting game
My previous computer had a catastrophic hardware failure. Had to get a new rig.
Intel Ultra 8 CPU
Nvidia RTX5090 GPU
Windows 11
Game will start and run fine at the menu. As soon as starting any scenario it will crash within 10 to 30 seconds. Every time, not randomly.
I have:
Updated and verified latest Nvidia drivers
Verified low latency mode is off
Deleted SpaceEngineers.cfg and shader2 folders to have game rescan on next startup
Tried Low/Medium/High settings
Turned Grass Draw Distance to 0
Turned off Anti-Aliasing
Turned off Anisotropic Filtering
Turned off Nvida Overlay
Turned off Steam Overlay
I am sure there are other things I have tried that I am not remembering.
Attached are the SpaceEngineers and VRAge logs from the last crash. As I mentioned, this happens every time, every game. At this point the game is completely unplayable.
I have the same bug

I have tried the game ready and studio drivers. I ran the DDU and reinstalled, tried Full Screen, Full Screen windowed and Windowed mode. They all behave exactly the same. I also tried different 16:9 screen resolutions.
Still the same behavior.
It also generates a Minidump file. Not sure if that is helpful to you or not.
