Windrose Patch Notes: Version 0.10.0.2.54-451ec92d (official) ↗

The game crashes to desktop while sailing into or around Tortuga, often tied to ships spawning near the port.

Also appears as: windrose crashing in tortuga, windrose crash near tortuga, windrose crash to desktop tortuga, windrose tortuga ship spawn crash

Kraken Express's own patch notes for version 0.10.0.2.54-451ec92d (shipped April 17, 2026, three days after Early Access launch) list "Fixed a crash caused by ship spawns in Tortuga" as one of that hotfix's Other Fixes. This was one of several crash fixes bundled into launch week's second hotfix, alongside a client/server version-mismatch check and an invite-code length fix. If you're on version 0.10.0.2 or later and still crashing specifically around Tortuga, it's a different, unreported issue rather than a recurrence of this one.

Fix it, step by step

  1. Update to version 0.10.0.2.54-451ec92d or later

    Update to version 0.10.0.2.54-451ec92d or later through Steam — Kraken Express's patch notes for that hotfix confirm this exact crash is fixed.

  2. Verify game files and report it if it persists

    If it persists on a current build, verify your game files through Steam's Properties menu and report the crash in Steam Discussions or the official Discord with your build version, since Kraken Express treats this as resolved on their end.
