The crash occurred in module ‘amdxc64’. This module is related to AMD graphics driver. If this is a recurring issue you could try AMD Cleanup Utility tool Drivers and Support for Processors and Graphics to see if that helps.

forgot the console log

Sorry to hear that @WideRobin

It appears there’s an issue relating to your AMD GPU drivers. I recommend trying the AMD cleanup utility tool (or another driver removal tool e.g. Display Driver Uninstaller), and then reinstalling fresh GPU drivers:

Please let me know how it goes!

Ran the program then reinstalled and still having the same problem, I was playing fine last night :frowning:

Which one? The AMD one? If that’s the case do it with the DDU!

@FatsharkLev Something odd is happening, was there some Windows update or something that broke it? Because the amount of people with suddenly not working hook is quite staggering, i’m seeing the same issues on github and our discord as well!

Just out of nowhere the game stopped recognizing HAGS across different GPU vendors and that’s not normal. Maybe the KB5089573 for Windows 11? It has staggered/gradual rollout with feature flags

I used the AMD one, Ill try with DDU and get back to you

Nice, please do it properly with windows safemode and just follow the instructions :slight_smile:

No luck using DDU either unfortunately :frowning:

After multiple uninstalls and reinstalls, I just rolled back the driver to a previous version and then updated it from there instead of directly installing the newest driver and that seems to have sorted it out for whatever reason

Glad to hear you resolved the issue!

Seems that something may be amiss with the latest AMD driver, but it’s pretty strange that a direct latest driver install causes an issue; however rolling back and updating from an older driver version then works.

Yeah im not super tech savvy so I can’t say why it worked, thought my gpu might have quit on me for a while there :sweat_smile:
