OBS Crash: Unhandled exception: e0000008 Please Help <3

[Mimilena]

Hiya i had my stream crash 4 times today while playing Peak and having crowd control enabled. I was also multistreaming to tiktok using tiktok live studio if that is relevant.

I am definitely not tech savvy at all so its difficult for me to understand what the logs and crash reports are saying.

I have suspicions that it might be a memory leak that im not seeing? I also wonder if it might be related to crowd control just being too much for my stream with my chat constantly sending effects to my game. Also to add to this: Stream didnt crash at all yesterday or the day before that. Both days i wasnt playing with crowd control enabled.

But i rather just ask for help at this point because its been a recurring issue on and off.

Here are the logs for the stream and the crash report for it as well. Also please bear with me i am not tech savvy at all and im just hoping to find a solution for this. please and thank you so much in advance.

...it might be a memory leak that im not seeing?

Windows OS: Task Manager can show how greedy each process and can show if RAM consumption grows rapidly for some process. If RAM consumption only rises and never drops it may be the sign of the "leakage" (aka "forgotten" objects in the RAM). Newer versions of the programs/games (if bugs existed and were fixed), and restart of the corresponding application (time to time) can solve the problem.

Windows OS: Resource Monitor > Memory tab > Hard Faults column - if it peaks and then crash happens - the task is too heavy. Browsers are greedy for RAM and execution time. Only scene simplification can help.

About the crash log.

Thank you for the tip to use the Resource Monitor! Ill be using that to monitor and see if there is a memory leak with obs studio and then im probably gonna duplicate my scenes and take off sources until i find the leak. Thank you for the help! <3 I will come back with an update and hopefully i find it D:
