Fatal Error when unequipping armor

Game mode: Singleplayer
Type of issue: Crash
Server type: PvP (default)
Region: USA

Sometimes, not always, when I unequip a piece of armor the game will crash to desktop. It doesn’t seem to matter which piece of armor it is. It doesn’t matter if I unequip via shift-click, drag & drop, or via equipping a new piece of armor which forces the current armor to be removed. I’m unable to see a pattern to distinguish between the times that removing armor works and the times that it causes a crash. The only pattern I’ve observed so far is that it happens when a piece of worn armor is removed. This bug isn’t new, but it seems to have increased in frequency. This has occurred ~ 10 times in the last 24 hours.

Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Play game as normal in Singleplayer mode
  2. Attempt to change armors
  3. 1/3 or 1/4 of the times, the game will crash.

I recently upgraded my hardware, so I don’t know if that has affected the increased frequency of this crash, but I can’t rule it out just yet. It has never been a hard freeze, and I’m able to launch the game again almost immediately. The fatal error report pop-up always appears, and I always send the report, usually with a brief description of what I was doing at the time. Just wondering if there’s any specific information I can provide with the crash report or here that would be beneficial to the dev team. Thank you.

This happens to me as well, I used to always have my inventory set to heaviest item first then I changed it to custom. The only other thing I’ve changed besides that is my FOV setting, I moved it back to default. Don’t no why that would have any effect but those two changes that I made and now it hasn’t happened for a long while. I used to think it had something to do with moving to different biomes. I’ve posted a video of it happening in test live section entitled “Crash to desktop when changing cloths”

I typically switch between sort by Name and between Heaviest First. About 30 seconds after I create a new character, I switch the inventory away from Custom sort and never look back. Very infrequently I will switch back to custom when I want to split a certain sized stack of something, but that only happens about once every 10 characters.

Hi @bbtech, just to confirm, do you have any mods enabled?

If not, could you please share a log generated after the crash takes place through DM?

I do not have any mods enabled. For whatever reason, the issue has stopped almost as suddenly as it started (without having changed anything or restarting windows). If it happens again, I will gladly get the log files for you.
