Description
Crash in empire creation

Game Version
Gemini v3.8.2 (947b)

What version do you use?
Steam

What expansions do you have installed?
Synthetic Dawn, Utopia, Leviathans Story Pack, Apocalypse, Megacorp, Distant Stars, Ancient Relics, Lithoids, Federations, Nemesis, Aquatics

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
While creating an empire in the empire designer, my game sometimes freezes and crashes when I go onto ship appearance selection. The first time, it was a game crash, the second time it bricked my entire PC and I had to force shutdown/reboot. Since that reboot, I've relaunched the game and could select a ship appearance without crashing. Crashes were quite rare (bordering on non existent) for me last update so I don't believe it's my PC - maybe something to do with rendering the ships. Also worth noting I have every content DLC except for First Contact story pack, but there was no option to tick or untick Toxoids, First Contact or Galactic Paragons when making this report.

This issue is before I can even start a game and I don't get a crash report but this page requires me to submit a file so I'm going to give you Jeff from the stellaris official wiki.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Disable First Contact before launching. Make sure game is set to windowed/windowed borderless display. Go through the steps of making a new empire. Click "ship appearance".

Edited for clarity about DLCs owned, and frequency of crashes.

Finished making an empire with no crash, started designing another one, had the full PC brick again with a lot of audio freezing/static from a background video that was playing and I had to force reboot. Really hoping this problem is identified and fixed soon so I can do anything other than mammalian ships because I'm not touching that tab again
