[Bug] SteamVR Overlay Crashes VRCX

[ScarletBane101]

Describe the bug
Everytime I try to get into VRCX, it immediately crashed on me. Sometimes it'll stay up, but after I open vrchat again, it crashes once more. Ive tried reinstalling vrcx to see if it solves the problem, but it doesnt. Ive had to stay on the version before it in order for it to work

What version you are running

from your VRCX settings > Advanced > Common Folders > open the "Crash Dumps" folder

Upload the file with the extension ".dmp" and contains "vrcx"

For some reason this is what its telling me. im not sure if its because im under the 24.05.09 update, but again, everytime I even remotely get into the newest update, it just crashes. I cant get into the newest update or anything at all, even without steam overlay running

Check this folder %localappdata%\CrashDumps\

it still gives me nothing

it still gives me nothing

does the folder not exist? you can go to the folder pressing windowskey + R and then pasting in %localappdata%\CrashDumps\ it should open a folder, and have a file ending with .dmp with vrcx in its name.

[ScarletBane101]

VRCX.exe.1160.dmp

I think this is it

[ScarletBane101]

cause apparently it just wouldnt give me the file. It kept saying the file was too big

[Myrkie]

you may have to compress it with winrar or 7zip, or upload it to another host.

[ScarletBane101]

VRCX.exe.1160.zip

Here you go

Added option to fix this in Settings -> General -> Disable VR Overlay GPU Acceleration.
