WARDOGS: Game Crashes Mid Game with No Crash Logs or Message (Workarounds)
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: Clean windows install, discord and steam overlays disabled.
Why it happens
The game crashes to the desktop every 30 to 60 minutes without leaving crash logs in the appdata folder. A brief error window mentioning a "memory dump" may appear before everything closes. This behavior points to potential memory leaks, full shaders, GPU overheating, or hardware strain.
How to fix it
- Turn off the Discord overlay and the Steam overlay.
- Expand your virtual memory in Windows to the maximum possible size.
- Lower your in-game texture settings to low or switch to the potato configuration.
If it still doesn't work
- Perform a clean installation of Windows.
- Check your GPU for overheating issues.
- Ensure your graphics drivers and Windows operating system are fully updated.

I've got exactly the same issue. Clean windows install, discord and steam overlays disabled. Can play for 30-40 minutes then randomly will crash to desktop. Ryzen 7800x3d 7900xtx 32gb ram
change virtual memory in Windows to big as you can, prob a mem leak , or shaders get full , or heat in your GPU imho
