How do I fix my game?

[Soulstice]

Whenever I try to start up the game it gets stuck on the "Initializing" part of the loading bar and never gets past that. I've tried everything I can think of, such as reinstalling the game, verifying files, deleting them, running in administrator mode, and even changing compatibility settings in Properties, but nothing works. This game is really fun and I want to play it but I just can't get it to launch T-T

System Spec for this solution: Gigabyte G3 Laptop I5-12500K; 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM; 1 TB M2 SSD; NVIDIA 3060 MOBILE; Win 11

First off, I have been in IT for 35 years. 'Nuff said about that.
OK, After what, 3 hours of troubleshooting.
Multiple re-installs sometimes got us past the seizure warning screen to pre-creating shaders, where it then locked up again (Freeze/CTD).

FINAL FIX:
Step 1: Nvidia Control Panel
-- 1a: Changed Graphics Processor to Nvidia high perf;
-- 1b: Changed Shader Cache size to UNLIMITED;
Step 2: DELETE Entire local profile
-- Note: Make sure the AppData folder is shows by View => Show => Hidden Items
-- Location: C:\Users\[[Username]]\AppData\Local\Saber\Space Marine 2
-- Delete the entire folder -- This will force Space Marine 2 to Rebuild the entire folder including the Shader Cache.

On this lappie it took about 3 to 5 minutes to rebuild the cache. Once that was done, the game loaded and was able to continue playing as normal.

WARNING: You may have to do this every time the game loads up as I cannot guarantee that the Shader Cache will not corrupt itself again. However, it's better than not being able to play at all.

I hope this helps some people out there. Please PIN THIS SOLUTION.

Try this hope it helps dunno why this is not pinned.
