Crashing when I start the game.

Lefrongo

Everytime I try to run the game, it just tabs me out. I can hear the title screen in the background but when I try tabbing back into the game it does nothing. Can't enter the game at all.

EDIT

I actually managed to start the game past the title screen, however when I was at the main menu and when choosing survivor I had really low framerate it was unbearable, it tabbed me out of the game again and greeted me with the crash report. I was then typing into the crash report until it tabbed me out from that too so I couldn't screenshot it in time.

I reinstalled the game too, that didn't help at all either.

I'm experiencing this exact same issue now for no reason. The game has been running perfectly fine for the past year and now its crashing non-stop on the main screen. 🤷‍♂️

I resolved the issue. I play DBD through Steam and the Steam client was attempting to update during gameplay, causing the multiple crashes. I restarted the Steam client and allowed it to update before going into DBD. I've experienced no further issues since. 👍️
