NVIDIA - Crashes on Launch or During Play

Some players using NVIDIA GPUs may encounter a crash due to a known issue in Unreal Engine. This issue causes a crash dialog to appear with a message that includes “ReportGPUCrash”. We are actively monitoring this problem, but there is no official fix available yet.

Symptoms

  • Game crashes shortly after launching or during gameplay
  • Crash dialog appears with “ReportGPUCrash” in the error description
  • This mainly affects players using NVIDIA GPUs
  • Most commonly occurs on driver versions 572.xx and 576.xx

Temporary Workaround

Follow these steps to apply the workaround:

  1. Locate Your Game Install Directory

    • Open the Steam client and go to your Library.

    • Right-click on Wildgate - Open Beta and select Manage > Browse local files.

    • This will open the game’s installation folder.

  2. Create a Config Folder

    • Inside the Wildgate installation directory, create a new folder named Config.

  3. Download and Place the File

    • Download the attached configuration file called UserEngine.ini (linked at the bottom of this article).

    • Move the downloaded file into the new Config folder you just created.

  4. Launch the Game Normally

    • No further changes are required. Just launch the game from Steam as usual.

Still Crashing?

If you’re still having trouble after applying the workaround:

  • Let us know your GPU model by providing your DXDIAG:
    • Press [Windows Key] + R (this will open up a "Run" window)
    • Type "dxdiag" and hit [Enter]
    • Click "Save all information" and save the file
    • Attach the file to the ticket
  • Include a screenshot or text of the crash message, if available

Submit a ticket with all of the above information to our support team.
