you wouldn’t have any idea what could fix my issue of. “Crashing the second I click launch” would you? I’ve tried every fix under the sun that I can think of, drivers, bios, hard reinstalls of both epic and bl3 and disabling cloud saves. But my game just crashes instantly when I try to launch it. It was working finr until 9-15-19 and I haven’t gotten the game to launch since.

Post whatever stacktraces/crash logs you got and I can try. No promises. If you happen to get any Unreal Engine crash logs (Crash Context.xml, just open it in notepad) those would help.

Try creating a shortcut to the game .exe and then set it to Run as Administrator.

Here you go friend, good luck. Gearbox doesn’t let you upload files like that so heres this.

yeah I’ve tried that, it does nothing. Still crashes instantly.

So, bad news, I’ve got this same exact error currently and even after all of those fixes above it’s still going on for me. I’m attributing it to the recent windows shenanigans that is causing memory leak. I’ve yet to find a solid solution but I’ll definitely add it here if I do.

Well, that’s the surefire easy way sure. I’ll keep trying out other things I see and add them as confirmed if they work for me.

Where can I see crash data if pc shuts down and restarts on its own?

#35

That’s my issue. I don’t get a BSOD, mine just turns off

#36

You and @MDragon , if your computer itself is crashing it’s more likely due to hardware failure rather than any program/windows failure. Likely culprits are the PSU, RAM, or CPU.

Hold windows key + R, type in eventvwr, check under critical or errors in the administrative view to get an idea of what part is failing.

Updated with DX12 fix that may help.
Updated with info about SFC.

So I’m having a crashing issue that seems slightly different than the rest of you guys. I’ve had the occasional memory leak game crash sure, but this recent one seems like a “tile set” crash, similar to what we would experience years ago.

I got to a certain part of the game (chapter 16 - the floating tomb) and right before I entered the vault , I used the vendings turned around 180 and crashed. Went to log back in and as soon as I enter game it boots me right back out, because the newu point has me saved at that spot so I’m stuck in a state of being unable to move lol. Any suggestions possibly? I’m now at day 4, being stuck at this spot.

So if i start my pc and run system file checker i have zero issues and everything is good with system status in command prompt. (DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth )Play the game and it still crashes, run the sfc /scannow and it says that i have corrupt files after playing the game.

It says in Visual Studio that borderlands3.pdb hasnt loaded. ill copy the text

Borderlands3.pdb contains the debug information required to find the source for the module Borderlands3.exe
Module Information
version: 4.20.3.0
Original location: F:\Program Files (x86)\Borderlands3\OakGame\Binaries\Win64\Borderlands3.exe

Then is says to try changing PDB and binary search paths and retry. It gives me the options of “Microsoft symbol servers” and “NuGet.org symbol server”

what would cause this? i have deleted and re installed epic store, bordlerlands 3, gone into files and completely whiped all system files from both off my pc and re installed both. Made sure ports that epic said to have open are open. verified game, everything i can think of doing to resolve the issue. still have random crashes and every time i play. debug in visual studio and it says its borderlands3.pdb hasnt loaded. Any ideas? any help is greatly appreciated

2k/gearbox support was genuinely useless. They sent me a automated response ticket telling me to do fixes that I already have tried ( and said I tried in the ticket), and asking me for information I included in the ticket. Worthless.
Im sure they are working on the utter slew of bugs right now regardless but its still insulting to get a response like that.

“Verifying game cache also seems to do the trick. I’ve needed to verify after each computer restart, likely you will too.” quote

I see i am not the only one doing this everytime i restart my PC. Good to know. Bad that myself and a few others are having this annoying issue. Guess i will have to make a habit of it till the fix it somehow.
