DX12 & ReShade crash ONLY on modded realm

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Technical Support

Issue Type (Required):

Crash - On Launch

Issue Description (Required):

Since the 6.6.0 update, I have been crashing on launch (immediately after pressing “Play” in the launcher).

This ONLY happens when playing on DX12, with ReShade, on modded.
I can play DX12, ReShade, on official, just fine.
I can play DX11, Reshade, on modded, just fine.
I can play DX12, no ReShade, on modded, just fine.

I am aware that ReShade is not part of Fatshark’s property and yet I would like to humbly ask if someone has any idea why that is happening and if there is a way to make DX12, ReShade, modded work.
I’ve been playing with DX12 and ReShade since release and I would be deeply saddened if I had to give up either better fps with DX12 or nicer looking graphics with ReShade after 7+ years, since I mostly play on the modded realm nowadays.

As the game crashes immediately, there is not even a console log and the error message below is the only bit of information I get.

Could it be be related to Easy Anti Cheat?

Any help is appreciated.

@Rapax unfortunately there is no console log in the crash report, and the launcher log is immediately cut off without providing any data to troubleshoot with :frowning:

As the crash is occurring in Modded realm it shouldn’t be related to Easy Anti-Cheat, as this only affects Official realm.

Some general things you could try:

Thank you for your reply!
It seems that a clean reinstall of the game fixed it - strangely enough, kinda feels too obvious in hindsight.
I even placed a backup of the AppData from before the reinstall back into the folder and it’s still working fine, no clue what was causing these specific crashes.

Among other things I’ve tried:

  • checked that I have the latest Windows updates installed.
  • uninstalled and reinstalled ReShade, including various different versions (5.7.0, 5.8.0, 5.9.0, 6.3.3, 6.4.1).
  • disabled every mod and started a “clean” modded realm on DX12 with ReShade,
  • everything with same result (crash on launch).

Anyway, it’s back to working like a charm, thank you for your help!
