Koder has always had a policy with ΔV that feature work never progresses while replicable bugs exist. Fixes always come first. But some bugs aren't within his power to address. Some are in the engine, some are in drivers, some are in particular applications and the way they interact with the engine or drivers.

So while there are few known causes for CTD that remain unresolved, there are a couple of things that we know can crash ΔV, which aren't in our reach.

• At the top of the list, of course, are outdated drivers. Often a bug report circles around to outdated drivers, so check your drivers first, particularly video drivers.
  
• The Godot engine just doesn't like controllers that have over 22 buttons. You may have to disconnect a HOTAS or similar controller. Please verify that your system no longer detects the controller.
  
• Some users have reported crashes while using OSD software. We have specific reports of crashes that are resolved when turning off "Riva Statistics Server" or disabling OSD components of ASUS's "GPU Tweak 2".
  
• Windows users have reported crashes related to a conflict between Nahimic audio drivers and NVIDIA drivers. To see if this affects you, it can be triggered with rapid windows resizing. This can cause problems with many OpenGL applications, and if you get BSODs with a "DPC Watchdog Violation" on other applications, this is probably the cause.
  
  It is recommended to uninstall these drivers, as they are a known source of many compatibility issues. Removing them will not disable audio, though it may disable some enhancement features.
  
  You can also prevent these drivers from interacting with ΔV by finding the Nahimic blacklist, and adding the path to the ΔV executable file.
  
  Part of the path to the Nahimic blacklist is manufacturer-specific. Here are two paths reported by different systems:
  C:\ProgramData\A-Volute\A-Volute.Nahimic\Modules\Scheduled\Configurator\BlackApps.dat
  C:\ProgramData\A-Volute\DellInc.AlienwareSoundCenter\Modules\ScheduledModules\Configurator\BlackApps.dat

As always, we're interested in hearing about and fixing the problems you encounter. The best way to get our attention is in the #bug-reports channel on our discord.[discord.gg]

In #bug-reports, please read the pinned post, which will direct you to the location of your game files to submit with your issue. Please note that everything there is helpful. We ask for the whole directory because every file is of use. Your settings and saves help us duplicate your game and conditions, and many of the various log files all have different data about a single session.
