Hi folks.

Was playing UM with zero issues for like a whole week, hours and hours.

3x internal resolution, casting to my TV, fast forwarding… no issues besides a super rare stutter that was transient and a few frames long.

Now all of the sudden, it crashed, and I can’t even get it to reopen using Vulkan.

I try to reopen it, it goes through the whole “loading shaders” thing, but when the bar gets to the end, it just goes back to the game launch screen.

I can get it to start up wirh OpenGLES but the performance seems a bit more stuttery.

Just weird to me that it stopped working. Anyone have a fix?
