Full Version: Annoying crashes throughout game.

Hello,

I was given the penumbra collection yesterday as a gift and I have just been starting to play Penumbra:Overture but I keep getting random crashes in the game both when i enter rooms or randomly throughout the game. For instance, I couldn't get into the storage room without crashing.

Example error message:
Code:
Penumbra.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module Penumbra.exe at 001B:004A:2023

Anyone else had any similar issues? Or have any idea what the problem is? I'm guessing its a graphics issue... Penumbra: black plague works fine though which is odd.

Thanks,

Daniel.

P.S. Thanks for the decent games!
Have you updated the game to the latest patch? Have you updated your graphics drivers to the correct version?

I figured I would be using the latest version when downloading from the frictional games store so I haven't applied patches.

I will try to upgrade the graphics drivers to see what difference it makes
