Game crashing on launch/intro

Issue Type (Required):

Crash - on Launch

Issue Description (Required):

I’d just updated my mods, tried launching the game and the first time I crashed in character select. Figured I’d borked something so I disabled mods and relaunched, this time I only get to the Fatshark logo and I crash. Didn’t even render the little video I just got audio and then when that had finished playing the game shuts off. I haven’t deleted my mods out of my game files yet but I genuinely can’t fathom what’s going wrong. Tried running it in windowed, closed out of everything else bar steam and a couple of background apps, verified my files; everything I could think of. Any help would be appreciated, I just want to play the game.

[PC] Do You Use Mods? (Optional):

Yes, and I’ve tried disabling them

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

Sorry to hear this. Could you share a crash report or console log with us, please?

Info Type:

[Engine Error]: Deadlock detected while waiting on renderer thread. Update was not called for 16.0 seconds. You need to supply a crash dump or a crashify link in the report since we need both logs and crashdump to investigate this.

Nevermind, this was apparently windows’ fault for disabling my GPU after an update -_-
I only found this out because I tried playing something else (I usually only have time to play Darktide with my friends) and that game also stuttered and died.
