    Ok i bought and installed the game yesterday and i tried to play it but every time i load a map and drive for a few seconds the game just closes out saying there was an error but it doest tell me what the error is ( i will post the crash report files as an attachment ). i have been looking around the internet since then all i see is use the Updater.exe but i dont have that in the root folder for BeamNG i installed BeamNG using steam and i have set it to the latest beta version and it still doesnt want to let me play :(

    any help on this would be greatly appreciated

    PC Specs:
    CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 3.4Ghz
    GPU: nVidea GT 640
    OS: Windows 8.1

    BeamNG Version: 0.3.6.0

    If need be post here and ill PM you my skype and i can screen share what is happening



    SOLUTION:
    OK GUYS I HAVE SOLVED THIS PROBLEM!!!
    As i said i had the Tech Demo of the game and i thought i had removed it by deleting all files related to it as it turns out it didn't :p i was clearing out junk programs today and as i was going through i saw ***BeamNG Tech Demo (Remove Only)*** so i removed it and found that the game is now running perfectly. so if anyone else is having troubles with the same sort of issue try this.



    Step 1: Press (windows+x) and go to Control Panel
    Step 2: Go to Programs - Uninstall a Program
    Step 3: Scroll through until you see ***BeamNG Tech Demo (Remove Only)*** (without the ***)
    Step 4: Right Click and Uninstall it (you may have to restart your PC)
    Step 5: Run BeamNG and check if it works
    Step 6: If it does ENJOY!!!

    Turns out i didn't say i had the Tech Demo (That would've been important most likely)

    that may well be the issue as the experimental builds are just that, experimental builds with no guarantee of stability. If its a problem then you can set it to the stable build instead and see if it occurs there.

    On East Coast USA by any chance? There's a known problem with NVIDIA cards, they tend to crash on East Coast, though I thought that bug was long gone.

    Re: Crash after loading map and driving. help needed.

    Switching between Stable and Experimental may corrupt the game. I suggest to go to Documents/BeamNG and delete everything.
    Then go to the BeamNG Installation folder in the Steam directory and delete it (save the mods you want to keep). Then let Steam redownload a fresh-clean copy of BeamNG again.
    Should work.

    No, thats the map name, there is a map called East Coast USA that supposedly crashes NVidia cards (makes a change from the pattern of AMD cards not liking BeamNG maps I guess)

    It could be that your PC has something wrong. Maybe a virus? or some Hardware failure?

    Not always a Virus scan finds something. Or that, or it's something worse.
    I don't see any reason why your game should crash like that.
