Whoever wrote that bug report guide has some very strange ways of using the file manager.
Nope, just trying to make it newbie && non-techie-proof. Some folks get really confused pretty easy and just want step by step instructions that don't require any thought.
Those that don't need or want that ▲ can simply glance through the instructions and do it their own way anyways.
I don't have an SSD sorry. Did you see anything else of note?
Eh. Defragment your hard disk (SSDs don't need defragmentation, but normal hard disks DO). Windows should be doing this for you automatically, but perhaps it hasn't gotten around to optimizing the Subnautica files yet.
If you use the cmd prompt (start > run, type cmd and press enter, or just search cmd and open it), type in
defrag c: -v
and hit enter, then it will tell you how fragmented it was before and after optimization. The -v switch turns on verbose (extra information) mode, you can run it without that if you want.
Does that affect it at all?
EDIT: Oh, and replace c: with d: or whatever if you've got Subnautica on drive D or similar.

I keep my C drive as a seperate partition of 50 gigs only for Windows and other core, vital programs ( Drivers, antivirus, etc ).
Thankfully, one of the few decent things about Windows 10 is that it defrags automatically for me. Sorry to keep grilling you here, but any other suggestions I could try?
You could try turning graphical options off in the F3 menu. You could try using the -force-d3d9 switch (outlined in the Direct 3D section of the Troubleshooting guide).
The game often freeze for 3-10 seconds since I finished crafting the Cyclops (when I search for basics materials near the surface) and then crash. DxDiag found an accessibility problem with Direct Show that cause the application to crash when I launch DxDiag without specifying Direct Show as an exeption. Looks like my problem is pretty close to JesusChrist454s one. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwWxIr1Sb7ZkY1BqS3A3ZkszN3c

Unfortunately this had no effect. I imagine we're scraping the bottom of the barrel here for fixes, but is there anything else you'd suggest?

Do you by any chance use gsync?
No I don't sorry. After some research my monitor is not compatible with G-Sync without extensive home modification.

Be sure gsync is disabled (or at least set to fullscreen mode only) --
Do you happen to have a gsync monitor with gsync enabled for both fullscreen and windowed mode? This caused a fps cap at 24 fps for me. When I switched back to gsync for fullscreen mode only, my framerate went up again.

Yeah. Wasn't sure exactly how GSync worked when the monitor doesn't support it (does it disable itself?).

It's never there to begin with thankfully. Any more suggestions by chance?
I can't remember if you've posted your complete system specs before (after a cursory glance through your posting history, I can't seem to find it). Can you post (or re-post) your specs using one of the tools in my signature (Speccy's probably easiest)?

We're having a heat wave down here and the thermal paste on the CPU is due for a reapplication, hence the high CPU temp
What are the chances of you treating yourself to an SSD?
Extremely high in due time. I've had a lot of personal life expenses from emergencies and moving recently that's restricted anything but necessary expenditure for a few months. However, one of my primary hard drives is starting to fail after 15 years of service and Windows 10 takes over 5 minutes to startup and login.
I've heard the Samsung 960 or whatever m.2 SSD is like 4x faster than that though lol.
Even so, I'm questioning if that's the only solution. I'm able to run multiple current generation games side by side at full graphics without slowdown ( EG: Titanfall 2, MechWarrior Online and Star Citizen ). Certainly, my setup has some problems, but no other games show it like Subnautica.
I get the impression Subnautica still has a great deal of optimization left to go through.

Cache clean had no effect, deleted that baked-batch file mentioned also did nothing. Any other suggestions.
If you're not running from an SSD and you have one, move Subnautica to SSD (see appropriate line in my sig).
Eh. Defragment your hard disk (SSDs don't need defragmentation, but normal hard disks DO). Windows should be doing this for you automatically, but perhaps it hasn't gotten around to optimizing the Subnautica files yet.

EDIT: Oh, and replace c: with d: or whatever if you've got Subnautica on drive D or similar.

If it keeps happening I'll update my post.
Guess what? I got another crash:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B67d4ZHuhDX3b2t3YmJOUWpuVTg
Also, strangely before the hardcrash above the game was crashing on exit.
For my first crashpack I included the entire subnautic_data folder (woops). I re-uploaded the first pack with just the output_log.

Good to know, thank you. Might just have to hang tight then.
