in Windows 10, 'event' should bring up 'View event logs'. click Start (or WinKey-R), then type 'event viewer' into the search box. If you check the Event Viewer, does that give an error code or 'Faulting Module' file name that might help identify the cause of the crash? With the GOG version, in the (optional) Galaxy client, select Divinity: Original Sin 2 in the left column, then click on the More button, and in the Manage menu select 'Verify / Repair'. Try each verifying local files: in the Steam library, right click on the game and select Properties, switch to the Local Files tab and then click on the 'Verify Integrity of Game Cache.' button. If you lower the game resolution and switch to windowed display mode, does that make a difference, or at least let you see if there are any pop-up windows in the background from an anti-virus or firewall program, etc?Īre you shutting down all non-essential programs before starting the game, especially anti-virus and anything network related? Is this in character creation, or after that?ĭid you try different ways to connect? The lobby or friend invite are available if you are both playing the same version, Steam or GOG, and Direct Connection should work in any case.
