The game has worked for a while, but now I cant get it to launch. It crashes when the menu screen loads.

I reached out on the steam forums, but it looks like the developer cant help me with this issue and there are too few linux gamers hanging around that forum. Figured this would be the next best place to try. The steam forum link is here

I assume you've verified the game files on Steam to be sure?

What distro is this? GPU? Driver version?

If you want help, you need to give us basic details about your system.

Mine continues to load fine on Steam, I get this up until the main menu:

Is this with or without the Encounters DLC?
naegling23 Oct 19, 2019
sure, forgot about that
Ubuntu 19.04 8gb ram (system is showing 7.7),Intel® Core™ i5-4590 CPU @ 3.30GHz × 4 , nvidia gtx 750ti running 418.56 drivers. 32gb swap memory.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game as well.
Liam Dawe Oct 19, 2019
Well, for starters the 418.56 driver is outdated by about 7 months, you should look to upgrade to a much more recent driver and re-test.

I have absolutely no issues on Manjaro with the 430.40 drivers.
naegling23 Oct 19, 2019
upgraded to 430 drivers, same problem:

just an FYI, I tried switching to the non-beta steam, still crashes, so I dont think its a steam issue from what I can tell.
Ehvis Oct 25, 2019
Log suggests it is related to memory allocations. Have you tested your memory lately?
naegling23 Oct 26, 2019
I ran memtes, it checked out fine. I have 8gb, the system monitor is telling me 7.7. I was planning on upgrading to 16gb in the near future, so maybe that would help, but Its frustrating that it used to work fine.
naegling23 Oct 27, 2019
game appears to be working now. I managed to start the game, turn all the settings down to low (they were set to epic despite lowering them manually). I exited the game then successfully restarted it. How did I fix it you ask? I upgraded to 19.10 (im on budgie). I have no clue why this did anything, in fact the install crashed in the middle of the update so I expected to have problems. I'll post again next week when I discover that some other game randomly stopped working...but thanks for everyone's help.

Although it's not an all-purpose magic trick, I would advise using an LTS version. With HWE enabled you won't really lose performance and you get a more stable experience. From what you wrote it seems like some kind of bug that was fixed in the next version.
naegling23 Oct 27, 2019
Thats been my plan, just waiting for the next LTS before I settle down. I started with ubuntu at warty/breezy, so I had it ingrained that each new release added a ton of features, but I finally realized a couple months ago that its no longer the case. I'll be sticking to the LTS releases starting at the next one, I dont have any intention on downgrading at this point.
