2EXITCODE_STEAM_INITINTERFACE_FAILEDThe issue occurs, if Steam fails to be initialized for the game.X4-267
8EXITCODE_STEAM_MANUAL_START_REQUIRED_FILEThe issue occurs because the game failed to initialize the Steam client.X4-293
9EXITCODE_STEAM_MANUAL_START_REQUIRED_ENVIRONMENTThe issue occurs because the game failed to initialize the Steam client.X4-294
113EXITCODE_GFX_NO_DUMMY_TEXTUREThe issue occurs when the game fails to detect necessary game assets.X4-325
119EXITCODE_GFX_CREATERENDERTARGET_FAILEDThe issue occurred because the GFX engine failed to create a so called render target.X4-522
201EXITCODE_VK_INCOMPATIBLE_ICDIncompatibility between Vulkan and Graphics card driver
  • Below-spec graphics card
  • Known to occur when running through a Remote Desktop connection
  • Possibly missing Vulkan runtime (Linux)
X4-82
202EXITCODE_VK_EXTENSION_NOT_PRESENTThe problem occurred, because the game failed to load a required so called Vulkan extension.
  • This can happen if your graphics drivers are not correctly installed.
X4-80
204EXITCODE_VK_LIMITS_TOO_SMALLThe game determined that the physical device doesn't meet the minimum specsX4-274
205EXITCODE_VK_CREATEINSTANCE_FAILED
  • Known to occur on notebooks with AMD CPU (has a Radeon Integrated GPU) + NVidia GPU, having old pre-installed AMD-GPU drivers
  • Known to occur with old OBS version installed (even when not running!)
  • Usually vulkaninfo will report errors
X4-131
210EXITCODE_VK_CREATE_SURFACE_FAILED X4-603
211EXITCODE_VK_CREATE_SWAPCHAIN_FAILED X4-352
212EXITCODE_VK_NO_PHYSICAL_DEVICE
  • Known to occur on notebooks with AMD CPU (has a Radeon Integrated GPU) + NVidia GPU, having old pre-installed AMD-GPU drivers
  • Usually vulkaninfo will report errors
X4-81
215EXITCODE_VK_NO_COMMON_GRAPHICS_AND_PRESENT_QUEUEThe problem occurred, because the game failed to initialize a Vulkan surface, used for rendering. X4-483
220EXITCODE_VK_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVERThe game determined that you are running with outdated graphic drivers which are not compatible with our Vulkan graphics engine.
  • Make sure to update drivers to the latest version.
X4-1
221EXITCODE_VK_INCOMPATIBLE_RUNTIME

The game determined that you are running with a Vulkan runtime older than 1.0.38 (which is not compatible with our Vulkan graphics engine).

  • Make sure to update drivers to the latest or minimum required version.

EXITCODE_VK_MAIN_DEVICE_*,
EXITCODE_RUNTIME_VULKAN_ON_LOST_DEVICE		This occurs, when the game lost access to the physical graphics device (i.e. the GPU).X4-275

233EXITCODE_VK_ENUMERATE_EXTENSION_PROPS_COUNTThe problem occurred, because the game failed to retrieve the number of Vulkan extension properties.X4-271
235EXITCODE_VK_NO_TRANSFER_QUEUE X4-371
1003EXITCODE_RUNTIME_UI_INITThe issue occurred because the UI system failed to be initialized.X4-454
1009EXITCODE_RUNTIME_LUAENGINE_INITThe issue occurred because the Lua engine failed to be initialized.X4-465
1046EXITCODE_RUNTIME_SHADER_LOAD_1
  • Probably a corrupted installation of the game
  • Possibly mods modifying/removing mandatory shaders
X4-639
X4-464
1061EXITCODE_RUNTIME_LOST_DEVICEThe issue occurred because the game ran into a lost device condition and failed to restore the device.X4-506
1062EXITCODE_RUNTIME_CREATE_SWAPCHAINThe issue occurred because the game failed to create a so called swap chain.X4-457
1065EXITCODE_RUNTIME_INDEX_IMPORT_1The issue occurred because the start menu failed to be initialized.
  • This can happen, if mods are involved and break mandatory index files (f.e. the index/components.xml file) the game requires to start up correctly.
X4-463
1069EXITCODE_RUNTIME_INIT_STARTMENU_MODULEThe issue occurred because the start menu failed to be initialized.
  • This can happen, if mods are involved if they break mandatory game files (most likely certain library files).
X4-462
1079EXITCODE_RUNTIME_IDMAP_ASSIGN_NEWThe issue occurred because the game is running out of available object IDs.X4-458
1096EXITCODE_RUNTIME_VULKAN_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORYThe issue occurred because the GFX engine ran into a Vulkan out of host memory error.X4-479
1106EXITCODE_RUNTIME_STARTMENU_INITThe error occurs because the game failed to start the background scene for the start menu, which is mandatory for the start menu to work.X4-510
1109EXITCODE_RUNTIME_VULKAN_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY X4-640
1113EXITCODE_RUNTIME_OUT_OF_MEMORY

It's assumed that the crash occurs because the game ran out of system memory.
Note that in normal cases this should not happen with 64-bit applications and usually indicates an issue with the system setup.

X4-268
-Crash caused by external tools / dll
  • Often caused by 3rd party overlays like Overwolf, WeMod, TrainerLib, Ansel, FPS Monitor, OBS
  • Occasionally caused by broken joystick drivers
