I recently had these type of crash logs for a while. It doesn't always happen, though.

If it's any help, it started when I attempted Cursed Kill Room heist. I had my usual mods and I knew it wasn't them causing it as I had run this heist plenty of times before with these mods. However this time around I was using the Borderlands 2 HUD mod. The game crashed during the heist when the objective to secure the cloaker cocaine in the vent. I tried the heist again and same thing happened.

I removed the HUD (although some elements remained such a fonts) and the heist ran fine. After a while, I had this exact type of crashlog after my game crashed after fiddling with my weapons in the weapons menu.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled my game twice and this problem still happens. Not all the time though, sometimes I can spend a considerable amount of time tinkering with my weapons and the game will run fine.

When the crash does happen, it can happen when I exit out of the weapon menu or when double clicking a weapon to modify it.

Hi. Do you still have any mods installed? If you do. Please try without them first. If your game still crashes then post your new crash.txt again.

[Conference Call]

I have no mods installed, neither asset overrides or lua mods. It's a fresh install.

Can you try to verify your game by using this guide? https://steamcommunity.com/app/218620/discussions/14/412446292758948285/#c412448158145038970 Since your crash looked like it failed to load some textures.

And if possible. Set your graphic into the lowest if possible since your GPU is quite troublesome I think.

All files are apparently verified, no files needed downloading.

I'll try and see if I can lower some settings more. I have always had the most performance heavy settings on the lowest/off, such as anti-aliasing, shadows and resolution.

You can try those methods to boost your fps or even get a smoother gameplay for this game, though it will be traded off with the visual of the environment around you.

1. Lower "Adaptive Chunk Stream Size" option in-game. This option is located it in game by: Start your game > Go to "OPTIONS" > "VIDEO" > "ADVANCED" > Change "STEAMING CHUNK KB" to 256 or 512, so it will help you while you are playing in any heists.
   
2. Another thing you can do is use some mods. In case you are instested in getting more FPS without caring your graphic. You can try this guide[docs.google.com] I've personally wrote it. (English language started at the 4th page)
   
   And remember that if you want to use BLT mod. You need to have BLT installed.
   You can get BLT from 2 sources.
   
   1. The original BLT by James Wilkinson which you can follow this guide to install it properly: http://paydaymods.com/download/
      
   2. If it still doesn't work then you can try to use SuperBLT (the up-to-date version of BLT with more features in it) by ZNix instead and you can follow this guide to install it: https://superblt.znix.xyz/

I've lowered my streaming chunk kb to 512 for now. Explanation for how it helps?

I've installed BLT mods before, although I might check out the Super BLT.

Please keep in mind this crash has happened several times before while on the main menus. Not a lot is happening at those times.

I'll go through your crash to desktop section in the bug lists thread, check my C++ redistrutables and .NET framework, restarting steam and reboot my pc. I'll play the game as usual and see if the problem persists.

Thanks.

If your HDD is not that great like SSD or a high round per second like Western black edition then you should set this to the minimum so it can help your game getting accessed into any objects and textures in-game faster. Though the object may become something unpleasant since it used more time to get full texture data with a lower steaming chunk size but it will help your PC performance at least a little bit.

Thanks. I'll see what runs best according to my HDD.
