The log seems to be normal, but there's one program hooked into outerra.exe that may be interfering with rendering:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Spigot\Search Settings\wth.dll (Spigot, Inc., Widgi Toolbar), version 6, 2, 0, 2

Please shut it down and try to run outerra again.

Nvidia's nvapi.dll is ok. So it seems the spigot wasn't the cause of the problem. Hmm.

Can you try setting a fullscreen mode? Edit eng.cfg and set fullscreen=true there.

It's just a few seconds usually. I don't remember if we had another 3xx user yet, 330 is nothing great performance-wise but it should work.

Please test the development version http://www.outerra.com/forum/index.php?topic=1146.0
It has a better logging and several issues were fixed there.

Hmm interesting. The internal tasks that load terrain files can't run or can't complete for some reason. Can't come up with a reason for it, we'll probably need to extend the log messages there.

Once there was a problem reading the data from SSD. Also, what is your UAC level in Windows? (control panel - user accounts)
