Issue Type (Required):
Crash - During Play
Issue Description (Required):
When loading into game with Ogryn Shield equipped or swapping to it in Psykanium, the game crashes with an Access Violation Exception. Loading into the Mourningstar seems to work normally.
One of the console logs was from loading directly to the Psykanium with the shield equipped. The other was from loading into Psykanium with a different loadout and then equipping the shield.

I tried some other weapons to do testing. It’s not just the shield, but I didn’t get consistent results.
I picked up two random shields from the Armoury and they both crashed.
A Branx pickaxe I had previously also crashed, but a Karsolas did not. The second pickaxe did not crash when changed to a Branx mark.
A Mk5 Shovel was fine, but a different Mk3 Shovel crashed (second had the Krieg skin applied).
After swapping marks on both of the above crashing weapons to a different mark, loading in successfully, and changing back to the “problem” mark, the crash was didn’t repeat within the same session, but did return when first loading in with the “bad” weapons. The shield has no alternate mark, so this is not a complete fix.

Do you still get the crash if you disable c-thru shields? The issue seems to be related to the fade system.

I uninstalled C-thru shields and it stopped.
I was looking down the weapon customization path as a cause, as I’d forgotten about C-Thru Shields entirely. Not sure why that also impacted the other weapons.
The fade system is part of the game (eg to make other players fade out when they get too close). C-Thru Shields mod taps into that to fade the shields. If the mod is broken it might be affecting anything else the game tries to fade.
If you can, poke the mod author for an update.
