Bought FH4 on Steam several months ago and played it for about 2-3 hours in September/October for the first time without any problems. Then I qualified to the autumn season and bought the first compulsory house few days ago. Then the game crashed and ever since then every time I press Continue in the main menu the game eventually crashes. I’ve tried to run the game (same steam account) on 2 separate machines and it keeps crashing on both of them so this is not a machine-specific problem. The only things they have in common are Windows 10 and nvidia GPUs several generations apart (gtx 960m, rtx 4070ti) with very different driver versions (and yes I also tried the latest on the 4070).
I also tried to log in as a separate Xbox user to reset my progress. Instead of standard Forza I tried the Lego champions instead. The game’s intro (reaching the festival) can be played without any hassle but the moment I set up my license plate, get in the car, and select the first event on the map the game crashes.
