[SOLVED] Crash on startup from steam, out of ideas.

SOLVED! Roll back Nvidia drivers to 472.12





Hey guys, ancient player back again. Just did a fresh windows 10 pro install, installed steam, installed COADE and... Hit play and nothing. Here's what I've gone through.

Manually set fullscreen in prefs : done.
Reinstalled OpenAL : done.
Verified game integrity through steam: done.
Tried various windows compatibility modes and run as administrator : done.
Reinstalled VC runtimes : done.
Wiped the CDE folder and turned off steam cloud : done.
GPU drivers check, and other drivers : done. (fresh windows install even)
Likely other stuff that doesn't come to mind : done.

Computer is... Somewhat abnormal. 3990x, 128gb ddr4, 3080ti.

Crashlog doesn't show anything obvious.

"Version: CDE 1.2.1.3 Windows

Steam is running and works fine for everything else. Game files are unmodified right from steam, so no funky stuff there. Any ideas?

Also, long time no see. Looking forward to the next work we see from QSwitched.
