rotts

it happened again in the beta version. i cant open the files to see why they are so large because it crashes any app i use. ive gone back to about page 7 in troubleshooting and i cant seem to find any solution to this? anyways here is one crash log im assuming the other two are just the last section of code repeated forever here is the one i believe got me my most recent crash, unable to start the program at all at this point. crashes on splash screen. occasionally it will 'run' in the background but nothing is actually up and i have to task manager the program away to try again

i think this is one of the logs unfortunately i dont think i have the one that caused the crash? it totalled 11gigs! and i deleted it thinking it was my problem. why are the reports hitting 10+ gigs?

Hey I grabbed this game a week ago. Honestly its amazing, having a lot of fun just designing ships and exploring. I put in about 10-15hrs on my first single player save, at some point i forget what caused it but it did crash on me. after crashing however, i was unable at all to reopen the game. it would look like a launch screen for a second and then nothing. restarted, checked file integrity did a bit of googling to see if i could find any solutions. read something about %appdata% and needing to clear out some extra files in that avorion folder. did, no success. tried to clean up potential bad sectors. nothing, it woudlnt let me start the game at all. i feel like it should be noted that one of the client logs had reached about 11gigs! not mb, gigs!!! uninstalled, reinstalled via steam, did not work. cleared out the folder %appdata% and reinstalled again, game worked for me but i lost all my saves. not a big deal, im new and learning its fine fresh start. put in about another 10-15hrs into a single player save, same thing. randomly crashed followed by the game refusing to work. weird. same solution, uninstalled, deleted the appdata folder, reinstalled, game worked. should be noted, again, another client log file reaching 10-14gigs! my question is, what am i doing wrong? why are my client logs hitting 10gigs+? what in the appdata folder is causing the game to crash on launch? is there a way to save galaxies and reload them after installs? i love this game, but i can't see myself committing if just lose all my work after a few gaming sessions. i used the recommended software and did a check, all my drivers are up to date. i exceed the recommended hardware (radeon 7980, i7, 16g ram, 120gigs sdd) is this a common issue, is there a workaround i just havent managed to find? any help at all would be greatly appreciated. this game has a lot of what i want in a game, and it would be a shame to shelf it to such game breaking bugs.
