Swtor keeps crashing on first screen
Okay so, the situation looks like that. After Onslaught dropped I took few days to just level before deciding to tackle the storyline - at least up until the game started crashing when I was trying t...

i just started setting my usual ones, hit submit and then it started having problems, which is weird because I had those settings with this graphic card for a while now. do you think onslaught changed that much with the game?
It is possible, looks like trial and error i'm afraid, although likely AA or shadows maybe start with them
I am currently enabling option one by one to see which one will break the system, for now AA is disabled, shadow quality too, and shader is on low - no crashes yet, we shall see
got setting to this: (i'll attach screenshot)
still have to check if it just won't crash on startup (but it's not throwing me out for now, so i have high hopes edit:too soon, crashed agaaain), but i will survive on those options
sooo thank you for help and endless patience?
Thank you! I still have to play with those settings to make it stay working, but now at least I have a starting point ^^
May the Force serve you well.
back to square one. I did the thing where I put one option up or higher, and then restart the game - windowed-fullscreen? works. high textures and character detail (only that-no shaders, bloom etc.etc.) it got into character screen and crashed when I clicked preferences. wtf, swtor.
I'm really contemplating just leaving playing swtor until i buy a new computer but i really wanna play.
edit: now it crashes when I click the preferences, but let's me into character selection
Right mouse click on the client_setting file in appdata and make sure it is not read only
checked, it is not set to read-only
Will check on other possible causes tomorrow its 1:30am here now so going shortly
ok, thank you for help anyway.
I'll actually have a dnd session so I'm going as well - it was my last try before leaving xd
so, I did some experimenting.
when I get the game only on (fullscreen windowed) and put texture quality and character level of detail on high - i still can avoid the startup crash, going into preferences on choosing your character screen will crash the game, funny enough if you log in into a character you can change the preferences however you want, but for now all combination I tried, one with AA turned off completely, and shadows on low is crashing the game when I log out.
and honestly that is weird, I had the same settings for months with that graphic card - even with two years old drivers installed and everything was fine.
but basically that's all I found out for now.
