Throne and Libertyis now available worldwide, but some users have encountered the pesky nightmare of Unreal Engine crashes on opening night.
This particular issue isn’t entirely uncommon, and it’s been seen in other titles that have been built on Unreal Engine 4 (as per NCSoft, the game doesn’t use the most recent Unreal Engine 5). The crash typically occurs due to optimization issues, which can sometimes be related to the system that you’re using. Let’s take a look at some tips and tricks you could try to solve the problem.
Disclaimer:There’s no guaranteed method that magically causes the errors to go away. I am expecting NCSoft to drop an update post-launch to permanently solve the issue.
Possible Unreal Engine crash fixes in Throne and Liberty
Thankfully, the reports of Unreal Engine crash fixes aren’t widespread, but there are incidents where players are unable to play at all. Typically, the crash can happen randomly, which makes it harder to solve.
It appears that incidents ofThrone and Liberty‘sgame engine crashes aren’t entirely new. In this Reddit post, user u/Sanaszi solved the issue by reducing the graphics to ‘medium’ from ‘high.’ While Throne and Liberty’s requirements don’t appear to be very high in terms of modern hardware, it’s safe to reduce the graphics for the time being.
Additionally, make sure you’ve got the basics correct—updated OS and file integrity. Sometimes, third-party applications like your anti-virus could accidentally delete one or a few core file(s). Running a file-integrity check would automatically detect such issues and reinstall those requiredThrone and Libertyfiles.
