Minor Issue

Hi All

i downloaded and installed everything, which went without a hitch... i used to play a couple of years ago but wanted to try the new single player missions as more have been added since i played last,

am currently playing through the vanilla missions again to get to the new stuff and my minor problem is i keep getting random game shut downs (no error message) i am onto mission 8 at the minute but must have had 15-20 of these shut downs so far, i wasn't sure what to set shader options to on launcher have tried a few different ones, the most stable is unfortunately the Vanilla option but i am still getting these shut downs (just not as frequent) my PC is more than capable of running the game, so am guessing it is something to do with it being an older game ?

i manually save every time i land and only load from them saves, but seems to shut down on missions only so depending where this happens i have to keep replaying.

if anybody can shed any light on this or give me a solution that would be great

My system is:

Windows 11

Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900K 3.20 GHz

64.0 GB (63.7 GB usable)

64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

ah ok... not being the most Tech savvy, where would i find the crash logs ?

hi

i have found some of these in event viewer, not sure if they help or not ?
