Unique problem causing ASA to be unplayable. Help please.

[Hsaimiri484]

I do not think this is a bug or widespread issue. I think it is unique to my system, but not savvy enough to come up with a solution. I was playing and had a crash. I didn't think anything about that at the time and just quit for the night. Days later I tried to play again and about 10 seconds after clicking single player to resume playing the following error comes up twices then desktop.

Fatal error!

I verified steam files of ASA, made sure windows was updated, checked video drivers, and so on but nothing seems to help. I deleted my save and tried to start a new one as well.

Ideas anyone?

Can you give specs of your system please?

[Hsaimiri484]

CPU i9 10850K, 3.6 Ghz

128GB RAM 

RTX 3070 with 8GB

Windows 10 Home

No issues running or playing any other games.

[Frozenhole]

its a problem for all of us when to much crap loads in 128 g of ram doesnt help much with this game, video ram is what it uses and even with 12g myself i still get that crappy error.

 

[PumpknCheesecake]

Single player is unplayable on console as well

How much memory on harddrive? HDD/SSD/M2?

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION can have a variety of causes. The specific address referenced in your error, "0x000001ea1f27f3b8" may not be common but that doesn't matter because the specific memory address is basically meaningless in this error. What really matters is the category, "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION".

There are plenty of guides that will give a series of steps to take in order to try to solve this issue, and I'll link those below, but before you use any of them here are the things I would do first. I'm going to start with the fastest/easiest and end with the most time consuming.

If you get lucky this could be a 10 minute fix, if not you might end up spending hours trying a bunch of things.

 

1) Disable your anti-virus, try to play the game. If the game works then you probably need to Verify or reinstall your anti-virus. Make sure you have all programs turned off while you're verifying or reinstalling anti-virus. No games, no browsers, no office applications, nothing.

2) If you use any mods, unsubscribe from all of them and make sure they are removed in the game interface. Reboot and try again. If the game works then you can add the mods back in, one at a time, test your game after each mod install, then you should be able to figure out which one is causing your problem.

3) Uninstall your video driver. Use the Device Manager > Display adapter do do this, look up the steps if this is something you're not familiar with. Reboot after uninstalling. Then after the reboot tell windows to discover your video card and install the drivers from scratch. Reboot again. Now test your game.

4) Completely uninstall and reinstall ARK form scratch. Verify works most of the time, but not always, there are problems that a Verify won't fix and this might be one of them.

Also, reboot after you uninstall AKK, before you reinstall. And after you reinstall reboot again before starting the game. Lots of people will argue that it's not necessary to do multiple reboots when troubleshooting or trying to solve issues, but this is Windows not Linux. Doing "extra" reboots is much better than not doing enough.

 

 

If it's still not working then you might need to dig into some of these ideas from these various guides.

You need to know wich kind of harddrive he/she has. HDD wont even run the game.

The stacktrace points to a mod issue. Uninstall all your mods and enable them back one by one.

[IceRaptor13]

I run a dedicated server for my wife and I, and I shut down the server after playing on Sunday and tried to load it back up on Tuesday and the server just would not load. I found this same error this morning and have been looking in various places all day and have seen many with this exact same error.

[Hsaimiri484]

Thank you all for your replies. I started to implement the suggestions by first removing all mods. This enabled me to get to character creation, which I wasn't able to do before, so I think this solved the problem. It will be slow to test every mod individually, but I did have a thought on that matter. I had recently noticed a mod that supposedly added a new creature (Metal golems) was listed as removed for policy violations. I had never actually seen one of the golems, but potentially that was the mod that had stayed in my save game and was the cause of all this. I will still check all the other mods one by one, but that is my first thought.
