Game crashing after logos FIX

[Rancid]

Can't even reach main menu...

System specs:

RTX 4090
Intel Core i9 13900k
32GB DDR5

Installed on a SSD (Not C:)

Everything is up to date, having no issues with any other game... Tried verifying, and most common sense workarounds.

Demo worked perfectly and maxed out. No crashes. All good.

There are many people reporting this issue around, be warned.

Will update if i somehow manage to fix it.

UPDATE: There is finally a fix for this!! Download the new updated RE Framework and copy "dinput8.dll" where RE4.exe is and finally be able to play this game! Not because of Capcom of course, modders had to do it once again.

Download link: https://www.nexusmods.com/Core/Libs/Common/Widgets/DownloadPopUp?id=214&game_id=5195

!!! Also, if you have Koalageddon, Greenluma, CreamAPI or any other steam DLC unlocker, game will crash on start. Uninstall those and re-install steam to fix it. !!!

for me it still freezes the black screen after the logo, I downloaded the file and put it in the game folder where the executable is and opened steam with greenmula and still got the black screen

Damn. I don't know what greenmula is, did you try deleting configs and old Re frame files/folders if you tried to use a previos version, doing an integrity check and launching again? After i used this .dll i can play normally now.

I just played this dinput8 file in the game folder, did I do it wrong?

That's what i did, i placed the .dll on a clean install and i finally could play the game

this "fix" helped a bit, i saw capcom logo:D after it crashed again like before

[Rodrigo]

I managed to run it here using the Reframework mod

just put the file in the game folder and run the game THROUGH THE EXECUTABLE in the folder, do not run it through steam, and open it as an administrator

try it, it's working for me

You sure you downloaded the lastest re framework? That happened to me with outdated versions, but i coudln't get into game until i used this (It's the same bug that happened on one of the lastests RE8 updates so it works pretty much the same... just needed the updated re framework for RE4 2023)

If you have Koalageddon, Greenluma, CreamAPI or any other steam DLC unlocker, game will crash on start. Uninstall those and re-install steam to fix it.

[BUCHA-MUCHA]

no any dlcachievment unlockers :(

Well damn, there are some people crashing with no fix it seems. Not many people complaining, so Capcom is not pushing a quick hotfix sadly.

[JustifiedEgo]

Is anyone with nvidia cards still having this particular problem since the update Nvidia did a couple of days ago?

It started happening to me 2 days ago with game crashing every time after 20-30 minutes of playing and I can't fix it so far. Before that the game was running perfectly since release.
