I have 6 h of game play drring 2 days all was going smooth when suddently on the 3rd day it just crashed imediatly i tried to load my latest save, i then load a older save and it worked and it autosaved eventually and that auto save if loadble but now after 1 or 2 min it crashes again, i have more pc capability then the requireds for the game and i lowered some specs in game to see if it changed anything, but still crashes, wish is rly sad cause i was really getting into the game. The crash appens usually when im moving from the hub to squin

You should upload the crashdump found in Kenshi's installation folder. Devs cannot diagnose and fix a crash without the kind of info that file gives.

As for the crash itself, I would suggest importing your game, see if that helps. Sometimes crashes related to specific areas are due to corrupt zone files, and importing can force the game to regenerate those files.

You can also grab this mod, which fixes some sources of crashes.

I tried the mod but the game didnt recognize the file so there was no mod to activate

It's not a normal mod, it does not appear in the modlist. As the instructions in the description say, you just put the file sin the main Kenshi folder. If it's working, you should hear a beep when you start up Kenshi, and/or a log file named "_kenshi_fix1.log" was generated.

Ok i did it and i heard the sound and it crashed when i tried "new game" .
I checked for file corruption on steam when the crashes start to happen and it said it was missing 1 file and it would aquire it again, so i start the game after that file corruption fix and it crashed, and now dowloaded the mod and checked for file corruption it said i was missing 1 file again and it would adquire it, i started the game heard the mod noise went to start "new game" and it crashed

The missing file is normal. Generally Steam will always see at least one file missing because it is a configuration file that stores details about your setting in-game. Often times it sees 2 or 3 files. Anything more than 4 is when it means there are actually problems with missing files.

I noticed on your thread on steam you mentioned it crashing when you start new games. Do all of the game starts not work? Or only some of them? That could be a key bit of info to find the cause.

At the beginning only my latest saves didnt work but now all saves or new game crashes, i tried importing and it also crashes.

Very strange. Personally, at this point I would try reinstalling the game. Backup any saves, custom mods, and exported character bodies I wanted to keep, and uninstall the game. Then I would clear the entire Kenshi folder of all remaining files, and reinstall. Afterward you can put your saves, mods, and character bodies back into their folders.
