Whenever I start a new game, it always seems like it’s struggling to load it and I suspect it has something to do with the cut scene. If only the options menu is available, I would have been able to lower or disable some settings. I’m not sure if this is because my laptop is a potato, but here’s the some log I copied from the launcher (let me know if I need something else): Thrive is running.

Currently the game creates a lot of species when creating a new game. That locks up the game for some time. I think that is what you are experiencing. ---

Actually it exits my window whenever it freezes up. I also forgot to mention this error: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library "Runtime Error! Program: This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application’s support team for more information." Maybe I can play next time with a better PC? ---

The game should generate a crash report. Please locate it and post the processed report on [pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com) Instructions for finding the crash dump and processing it are here: > [@0.4.0.1 Crash Reports](https://community.revolutionarygamesstudio.com/t/0-4-0-1-crash-reports/1368): > > Reporting crashes as of 2023 is done the following way: If you get a native crash, report it through the Thrive Launcher, that will automatically send the crash dump to us which is required to know what went wrong If you get an unhandled exception type crash, then just copy the game log from the launcher and put it on [pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com) for example and open a new thread in #Bug Reports about it OLD CONTENT The 0.4.0.1 release includes a new crash reporting tool that will create .dmp files containin…
