In-game crashes and crash at startup issues are common among PC video games, and Farthest Frontier is no exception. This city builder has launched for PC as a Steam Early Access title, at the time of writing, and isn’t very demanding in terms of hardware. Still, PC players are experiencing in-game crashes and crash at launch issues with the game. Here is how to fix the Farthest Frontier crash on PC.
How To Fix Farthest Frontier Crash
PC players are reporting that they are experiencing in-game crashes, Unity crash with the “Error: Farthest Frontier – Unity 2021.1.15f1_0791816cff8c” error message, and crash at launch issues. There are several reasons why the game is crashing, and the following are the fixes and possible workarounds.
Crash Fix
One reason why behind the Farthest Frontier in-game crash is the use of in-game overlays like Steam in-game overlay or GeForce Experience overlay. Disable these overlays and the game will stop crashing. For Steam overlay, open Steam settings > In-game > uncheck “Enable the Steam overlay while in-game” and hit OK. For GeForce Experience, open GeForce Experience > click on the gear icon at the top-right > General > switch off In-game overlay. This will fix the in-game crashes.
Another reason why Farthest Frontier is crashing is the use of third-party tools and software like MSI Afterburner, RGB Software, drivers for software for third-party peripherals, and more. Disable any third-party tool that you are using and the game will stop crashing while playing.
DirectX 12 could also be causing the game to crash. Farthest Frontier supports both DX12 and DX 11. Switch to DX11 and see if that fixes the in-game crash issue
Your GPU is another possibility why the Farthest Frontier is crashing. As I said above, the game isn’t very demanding in terms of PC hardware. However, the game is still in development as it’s part of Steam Early Access, at the time of writing. Meaning the game isn’t optimized, which can cause it to crash. However, a still tweak to GPU settings or game settings might fix the issue.
If your GPU is overclocked, revert it back to its default GPU clock even if it’s factory overclocked. In case the GPU isn’t overclocked, then try lowering the graphics settings to reduce the GPU load. Alternatively, players can cap Farthest Frontier’s max FPS to fix the in-game crash. Open Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings > select Farthest Frontier. Enable “Max FPS Limit” from the options below and set a value for it. It’s a bit of trial and error to see at which value the game becomes stable and stops crashing. Capping the game’s max FPS reduces the CPU and GPU load and will fix the Farthest Frontier in-game crash.

Some PC players are experiencing the “Farthest Frontier – Unity 2021.1.15f1_0791816cff8c” error message following a crash, and here is how to fix it.
