Lots of Crashes After New Update 1.61?

[Larotian]

After downloading the new update, I uninstalled all my mods (through Vortex), and am able to play this awesome game again. But, my game keeps crashing after 5-10 minutes, every time. I know temps aren't an issue, and I've brought down the resolution and the graphical settings just to see if that would help, but it's to no avail.
Does anyone else have this issue? Should I just simply delete then re-download the game?
Thank you for your time

EDIT: I'm able to play the game now after doing a full wipe and clean install. Attempting to play on one of my old saves (that was modded) would make the game crash, so I started a new game. I do have a couple mods installed again. Thank you everyone for your help.

Anyone getting crashes in 1.61? Literally can't go more than 5 minutes without the game just dying, tried disabling RT but that didn't help.

I've had 2 since 1.6 which brings the total for 1400 hours to 4 crashes.

Crashing for me too on an RTX 3060 desktop in the same way described. No mods, latest drivers; have tried dlss and fsr toggling, rt toggling, vsync toggling... nothing is fixing this. Runs fine on my Steam Deck and my Katana GF76 gaming notebook. Ran fine with 1.6 too, it's only this 1.61 that's broken the game.

Yeah. I've had no crashes since I.61. CP 2077 is really is the most demanding game ever made and some combinations of hardware are going to struggle.

Literally the only variable that changed is the version number and the drivers, either of those not working is really the game's fault since no other software I use is having these issues.

Turns out verification (was running while I was looking through the discussions) found 3 files corrupted by the upgrade. Corrected and running fine now.

Verification found broken files for me too but it didn't really do anything at all, probably just patched the CDPR launcher updates since it didn't match the files on Steam or something.

Yeah every time there is a big patch I generally have to run verification and then repair what patch broke during installation.

Unlike most other moddable games, I would suggest you manually install (and remove) mods for Cyberpunk. The Nexus forums report numerous issues with the use of Vortex or other mod managers for mod installation with this game - in fact many mod authors recommend manual install only for their mods.
Installing mods for Cyberpunk is dead easy - copy and paste basically.. that way you know the file structure is as the mod maker intended.
Same goes for mod removal (which you can safely do mid save/game for Cyberpunk with no issues), providing you again follow the mod structure and remove all the relevant files.

Yes, I've had a lot of stability issues since 1.61 on a moderately modded game (using mostly Vortex), and this is the most helpful solution I've seen thus far. I seem to be ok on foot, but I drive around 5-10 minutes in a car and CTD, on the Metro system it's like 15-20 seconds then CTD, and the crash reports tell me nothing useful. I guess then there's nothing for it but a clean install followed by manual install of mods. Kind of a shame about Vortex though, as now I will have to track mods the old-fashioned way.

if i sit in the inventory screen for more than like 10 seconds i crash, cyberware menu as well. and the biggest issue is whenever it rains I get a huge frame drop and 90C+ cpu temps that come with it. temps are fine unless it rains then the thing just explodes my pc... the temp issue has been an issue since a week before 1.6.1 released and never had that issue prior. thinking it was one of the 1.6.0 hotfixes that may have been the start of that issue.

yeap, I'm getting crashes since 1.6 when I decided to reinstall after finishing the game two years ago, today I'm having more problems for play this game than I had the week of the launch

Oh, and I've already tried everything. Reinstall the game, reinstall the OS, tried so many VGA drivers, made stress tests to check the heat, MEMTEST. Until I just give up and uninstall the game 😂

same here, ive had more issues than when the game released. characters glitching during cutscenes constantly showing their skeletons, tposing, frame tanks during rain which is also causing my cpu to spike up to 95.8C.

Uh stuff just kind of pops into/out of existence now. Not rendering, existence. Like I can drive through a car because it pops out and not collide with it. Dropped about 10 FPS with big spikes, but mostly still playable

yep almost all of the crowd npcs dont fully render as a constant, rain seems to trigger the fps drop... i go from 55-65 down to like 5-10 and it spikes my CPU temp to upwards of 95.8 Ryzen 5900x likes to sit at 89 whenever it can but the rain takes it to the red zone
