I think it's important to warn people that this parameter is used to fix/reduce crashes which can come back if you remove it. Proceed at your own risk. I would prefer to see a specific fix to the crashing or the pink trees directly.

I'm crashing every 15min now without this parameter in the launch options. It's either frequent crashes or pink trees. I cant decide which is worse but both are making this beloved game unplayable for me. I have an AMD r9 390, i5 2500k with 16 go RAM on win10 if that helps. Latest drivers/BIOS for all hardware (afaik).
