Red Dead Redemption 2 crashes with the error err gfx state

After the release of Red Dead Redemption 2, users started talking about a number of errors and bugs that occur as the game progresses. The most common of them is an error that causes the game to crash, and it is called err gfx state. It appears when playing in the red Dead Online multiplayer mode.

What to do if the game crashes with an error

In Red Dead Redemption 2, an err gfx error usually results in the game being closed, and a subsequent launch is often not possible if done immediately after departure.

The first thing you need to do is restart the Rockstar Games Launcher, through which the game is launched. Usually, with such an error, the launcher can't be closed immediately either, so you need to do it through the "Windows task Manager". It is advisable to restart the computer after this, but you can try to start the game and so. This method solves not only this error, but also many other problems in the game of this kind. In most cases, this is enough, but sometimes in RDR 2, the err gfx state error can bring more trouble. If this happens, then a more radical solution is needed. You can find out more about this below.

If after restarting the system and closing the launcher through the task Manager, Red Dead Online crashes again with an error, then you need to do the following:

First you need to go to "This computer" and find the "My documents" folder there, then find the "Rockstar Games" path there.
in this folder, go to "Red Dead Redemption 2" and find another "Settings" in it and go to it. As a result, the full path should look something like "My documents" \Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Settings\.
in it, we search for all cache files and with the end of sga_ and delete them.
When all the manipulations are done, you need to restart the PC and re-enter the game.

If everything is done correctly, then in RDR 2, the err gfx state error will no longer be a concern.

In this article, we have analyzed in detail the two main solutions to the most common bug in the game Red Dead Redemption 2. If you follow all the points correctly, the error will be solved and then the game will work fine. If after some time the flight happened again, then after the same manipulations, it should disappear again for a long time. Most likely this will not happen again, and you will be able to fully enjoy this game.
