My game seems to be working alot better now, a few things i did. Maybe it will help someone else too 1. Removed all mod files from the game directory - including the mod and modsave (no idea if this did anything but i was advised to do it so i did) 2. Removed the all shaders manually from all my GPUs following this post [Resolving Crash Issues After the Latest Update](https://forum.playinzoi.com/t/topic/6381) 3. Verified the files on steam 4. cleared the PSO and disabled mods in the game menu (just for good measure, no idea if it did anything since i had never used mods) 5. Tried to remove my Canvas downloads but i seem to still have them so that didnt work.. 6. Created a new Save as file for any sessions i wanted to keep and got rid of all autosaves and old saves 7. Checked for any driver updates Its alot i know and theres a hotfix that got released after i did all this so i dont know what did it but its working and i really appreciate the help! 🥳 --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.playinzoi.com/t/topic/1469)._
