Game crashes upon start up.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to give a heads up that I ran into these errors but found a solution that has worked and has solved it for myself and a friend. On windows, you have the My Games folder with the Path of Exile folder. Go to that production_Config file. From inside that, set renderer_type=Directx11 if it isn't already and then set device_type=Directx11 (This on both that were fixed was set to 12 at time of us opening it so seems like a mismatch). Making this change has then made the next load on both comps successful and we went back to being able to play.

Check those fields even if a vulkan player to check for mismatches.

Had the same issue.
I was playing fine at launch.
My game was running with Vulkan

Fixed it by changing

device_type=directx12

to

device_type=Vulkan

Config file location :

C:/User/[You account]/My Documents/My Games/Path of Exile/production_Config.ini




It worked for me, thank you very much !
