Unreal Engine Carnal Instinct [v0.7.2] [Team Carnal Instinct]

This might be a driver issue since you were able to play older game versions before. Check and see if your gpu driver updated recently, you may have to roll back the driver to a prior version. The only other thing I can think of is not enough v-ram which would be strange since you could play before.

With 16Gb of Vram I think if it's a shortage of it, most people in this forum would complain about that too, so this is unlikely. As for the driver version, I forbade AMD from auto-updating in about 5 different ways, but according to AMD my drivers are still the latest available (they focused on the 9K series of GPUs and haven't touched the 6 and 7K series in a while).

Nevermind, I've found a solution from the depth of the mid 2000's part of my mind: launch the game twice. One instance crashes, the other does not.

That is very strange maybe your download got corrupted. I will test this new version once the download completes (mixdrop) and let you know if it works on my system. For reference my sys specs below.
RTX 3050 6gb vram
Intel Xeon e3-1271 3.60ghz (8 cores)
16gb ddr3 ram
Win10

Oh good that you solved it and your problem wasn't worse like a gpu starting to fail or something.

My specs are AMD 7800X3D & 7800XT, 64Gb ram and windows 10 (because unreal 5 past v5.2 cannot run without windows 10), I think the crash is due to the game being overly optimized for NVidia GPUs (after all they're 92% of the PC market)

gogol1234 , i have 32GB (4x8), but i refer to your frequency & latency (cas / cl )
The only (times) i got fatal errors, was during playing, when 'saving' , sometimes during launch like you.
This happen to me with older version like 0.6.xx
My ram spec are ddr4 - 4400mhz cl19-19-19-39 "1.45v"
i did an oc&uv > something like that > 3800 cl14-15-14... "1.41v" woking fine but after an update , i got the fatal errors ...
now with > 3600 cl14-15-15.. never got a fatal error (with 0.6.9--0.7.0 --0.7.1 et now 0.7.2...)

Edit: I forgot to tell, even with the XMP/DOCP by default ''cl19-19-19-39 and 3800mhz" i got fatal error...

Just in case, we never know...Try in cmd/powershell > sfc /scannow

I'm sadly outdated when it comes to DDR5 latencies (for some reason that I never cared to learn, it's different from DDR4), so I won't touch it unless everything else breaks, also given how wonderfull the price of ram has risen to, it's even more reasons for me to not touch anything while it works. I like my kidneys and don't intend to sell them for now. But in case you missed my previous message: the game now works, as long as I launch two concurrent instances of it.

I didn,'t ... Great if it works
Yeah i know about the price -_- , but you risk nothing to UnderClock your MHZ by a notch.
bye

I'm an AMD 7800X3D user, there is no overclocking that, only underclocking everything to actually improve performances so everything -even my GPU- is underclocked to 60% of its designed speeds or TDP.

I'm currently downloading this game from mixdrop give that a try. Some antivirus apps can throw false positives sometimes.

Just did, no flags

Has anyone tried doing the "Would you?" mini-quest while playing a male character?

I've tested each of the 3 options to finish the quest with a female MC:
- the Vigilante ignored the 1st one;
- when I picked the one that requires 12 Presence, he just vanished;
- and when I chose the "Seduce" option (as the most suitable for a female character), he reacted with such an unconcealed disgust that it looked rather insulting, yet the quest ended and I earned some Carnal Instinct points as if there was a sex scene involved.

So now, I'm curious:

Did the Vigilante reject the offer because he's a super-strict gay (or a die-hard misogynist)?
If so, then there should be a different outcome for male vs male interaction.

Or did the devs intend to place a sex scene right there, but something went wrong and they hastily replaced it with a negative response, yet stil granted the CI xp?
