In early game I entered a gorge tunnel (Shipping -> repair) and upon exit the world was black. I tried alien vision, but that gave me a large orange-grey oval that gradated out to stronger orange at the edges of the screen. I could still move and audio still worked (could hear myself biting/jumping/etc) but no visuals. Returning to the ready room fixed the issue and I was able to re-enter the game and play it out (using gorge tunnels to move around). I'm 99% sure I used that same tunnel later on as well.

System specs are
Xeon e3 1280 v3 (iirc, haswell xeon 4770 equivalent)
Radeon 260x with 2GB ram
I did have the texture handling thingy set at the 2Gb+ level

Lowered to 1.5 and have not had an issue. I'll try some at 2+ again this weekend.
