When we encounter crashes, do those get reported back with enough detail, or should we be posting logs?

Just jumped on and I think I’m in love again with this game…OMG the visuals and performance is amazing!! However is there a way to bring up a menu for graphics settings in this beta or make any changes to visuals? Keep it up you just hit a home run!

Steam do have an error reporting system but its does not capture all crashes.

You can email the crash dumps in as outlined on the http://playboundless.com/#faq
On Windows they are in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Turbulenz\Boundless\ and email them in to boundless@turbulenz.com.

Omg the game looks and runs amazingly so far. On US 1. Anything in particular you want us to be doing to help test?

Ok I was naughty and played it a little while at work… I couldn’t wait … and with good reason. It looks absolutely beautiful and runs so smoothly!

Didn’t have any crashes on my Mac in the 10 mins that I played, with the exception of when trying to quit. Will try on my Windows machine tonight as well.

I’m guessing you don’t want reports of missing textures and such, just actual crash reports submitted as detailed above by Michael right?

Okay just jumped back on and set graphics maxed all the way out and was getting 60 fps plus…smoooooth as butter! Visuals were good before but there was some performance penalty but this is taking it to a whole new level…congrats!!
