I'm currently having a huge problem whenever going into combat. At random intervals for what seems to be no reason whatsoever, the game suddenly crashes and just quits. It only happens during combat and this is shown.

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f16a34f3ad7, pid=52254, tid=139735156815616

I use linux (linux mint xfce 20.1) and have some mods downloaded (the ones i find culprit to be lightshow, Torchships, or Vayra's ship pack)

Hmm - based on this: "iris_dri.so" - this looks like a crash in the graphics driver. If there's a different version of that available, using that might resolve the issue.

I don't know if there is a different version of it or even how i could it and change out the one i currently have. I'm using intel integrated graphics on an Intel i7-10510U. Or does it need to be change in java?

I'm not super familiar with desktop Linux so I'm not sure how one would go checking for driver updates/versions/etc there, my apologies. This does appear to be an issue with the driver, though; changing java etc isn't going to factor in.

You mentioned that you think one of the mods you're using is causing trouble? If so, I'd try to narrow it down further and maybe it's one you can run without.

I'm currently playing an unmodded play through to see. When i first got the game it seemed perfectly well because i didn't have any mods installed so you may be right. I believe it's a problem with lightshow since that's one of the graphical mods i have. The only other ones that could cause the crashes might be the ship mods which i think is unlikely.
