Where were u crashing? And what's your card?
Thing is, the problem is very symptomatic of a graphics engine issue, I was waiting for a driver update so I could test that theory.

I was at arcjet/BoS area, started to CTD after i exited arcjet(after 30h+ hours in). I'm running a measily gtx560 TI DCII, which runs the game "good enough" so to speak.

I'm unsure if that's near the C.I.T area like everyone else. But was the crash constant? As in always the same?

Always nearing the area yeah. Other people have reported different areas as well, so it's not necessarily just connected to CIT and as said, there probably is still a bug, just that this fixed atleast some part of some problem.

That is a great achievment for this thread. We might never know what was it all about, but seeing an official statement is pretty comforting nevertheless. Thank you JoeBBBB, and thanks to everyone else who responded and shared thier pain in this thread

This patch can't come soon enough

We need to form a support group. There's more than enough of us.

I'm all for that!

The new driver did not help in my case. Still crashes at Monsignor Place / Red Dinner / Greenetech.

a Steam Group?

New driver did not fix the problem for me either, still crashing in the Cambridge area.

This has been happening to me whenever I try to complete the Silver Shroud quest.

Oh well I guess I'll avoid the area for now and do everything around it until the patch drops.

Cas everybody with crashes tell us what graphics card they are using?

Updated my driver, still getting the crash i wasnt expecting it to fix the issue i think it was just coincidence that it fixed TheCrosshare's problem, Either way i'm running a GTX 970 but i think it's just a bug that can sometimes crop up after a certain quest. my 8 hour save is fine but my 13 hour save crashes and everything after my 13 hour upto 30 obviously will have the bug. So somewhere between 8 and 13 hours i did something that broke the plaza. Very sad just gonna have to wait for an update as i really cba to start again cause it may happen again. Shame no patch for weekend but what can you do!

IMPORTANT:

MISSION: Butchers Bill 2

OBJECTIVE: Find Blackbird

The problem is Blackbird is inside the crashed zone.

Nobody is saying anything about this mission. Railroad quest.

Anybody can help me? Maybe if can u with code make Blackbird appear?

GTX 970 but I heard of people with all sorts of different cards having the crash, including consoles.

And we shall call ourselves, "The Crashables!"

That svcks man, I hope a patch fixes this for you soon! Thanks for taking the time to comment

Hi!

Thank you for commenting

Thanks for all the info you gave, hopefully it'll help some people. We unfortunately have no idea what actually causes the crash, I've heard people have the crash on quests I've never heard of and such and some people have even tried going through each quest to find what may cause it. Just like some other people said, I really hope when it gets patched, we get a little clue as to why it crashed in the first place

That svcks dude, I'll put a notice up in OP to say we need somebody to try and find a workaround. If you want I can give you intructions on how you can teleport inside the blackbird.

How?

It's copy and pasted but it should help. How well it goes depends on how complex the quest is but it'll work if you keep ging at it. If you need any help then feel free to ask

I'd love to help but I'm not that far yet bud, you can use coc nameExt to get somewhere example: coc sancturaryExt Sometimes it's hard to find the code though

to get a location to teleport to in a quest use player.sqt This'll show you all your active quests, it can be a pain to go through them unfortunately

On the console screen, it'll have a reference and a load door key. you can use player.moveto thecode example: player.moveto 000F492Fe thats a made up code

if the objective is outside then you might need to complete the objective instead, you can use player.sqs questId (the quest id is in player.sqt, current quest: IDHERE) You can also use movetoqt QUESTID to teleport to the location you're supposed to be at.

That'll show all the steps of the quest you have to do, you can then use player.setstage QUESTID STAGEID to complete that stage, might take a few tries to complete the correct stage

Hopefully that makes sense and can help you, if you do find a workaround we'd love to hear it!

Thanks dude! and dw about the ID, it stays the same as I had the quest. I didn't know you could use movetoqt, [censored]. That makes my workaround easier, Ill update OP.

Maaan, I can't believe movetoqt existed ahaha that would of made so much stuff easier. Learn something new everyday I guess haha

Thanks again!

I see a video and Blackbird is dead inside a building. So I think the only way is teleport inside that building. The problem is: I dont know the name of the building or the code to taleport inside.

Maybe movetoqt QUESTIDE works... But... How u know the ID of all missions? :S

Link me the video and I'll check it out, I can't do the quest tho as Im not that far in Railroad.

You don't need the code to teleport in such as coc

When you use player.sqt there should be a quest id (Current quest: QUESTID)

Then there should be some codes such as 000F492FE they can be used to teleport you there. It can take some time to find the right code though as some QUESTIDs don't help identiy the quest

As long as the quest is not outside in the Morsignor Plaza area then you shouldn't need to use setstage that skips a part of the quest

Hope it helps, feel free to ask for more help here or via PM

Alright, this is just silly.

I started a new game. Boogied through everything until I exited Vault 111. Then I coc GreenetechGenetics01. No problem. Exited to Cambridge. No problem. Since my problems have always been SW of DB Tech High School I wanted to check that, too.

I consoled my way to the interior, then left and ran out heading SW. I crashed on the same boundaries as I mentioned before, in a different save. I had only one active quest, Out of Time.

So, I'm hoping that my problem is only a corrupt game file or something, so I'm going to uninstall, remove all files from /My Documents/My Games, and try again.

Yeah, starting new games or going back in saves can allow you to enter the area. It's really odd that only some people are having it too which is why some people really wanna know what caused it :/

You can always start a new game to wait for a patch or just use workarounds. svcks you're having the problem too :/

That's my particular problem, though. On three separate characters I've had CTDs when entering the same area. That's why I think (hope) that my problem is tied to something with the game itself, and not something generated during gameplay.

Wow, thats like the worst luck right there. I think I heard of people starting a new game to have the crash though - the original OP said to not start a new game and I remember writing that for a reason but quite a few people in the last few pages have started new games and been fine so I removed it... Still, sorry to hear you're still getting crashes, just gotta hope for a patch I guess.
