cant Update BLT and its causing the game to crash

[Evil Patina]

so recently after a short hiatus i tried playing payday 2 again, only for the game to not work at all and crash after a while of "loading." so in a desperate move, i used PD bundle modder to try and find out what killed it, and as it turns out, the BLT file in the mods/base/req/util, "Json 1.0", is the file that caused the crash. So, i tried looking around for the newest version of BLT 2.0, and all the files i found were actually older than the one that needed replacing. so in a last ditch effort, i tried replacing the files with an older one, and lord behold, still crashes. Am i just gonna have to wait for the guys behind BLT 2.0 to update it or is there something i can do?

Modding forum is the right place though

I can practically guarantee that this JSON error is not the cause of your crashes. This is simply a fatal error due to one of your mods having invalid JSON. This fatal error doesn't crash the game, BLT simply switches to the old JSON loader instead (which is a lot more lenient).

Try removing your whole "mods" folder and reinstalling BLT from scratch. If it still doesn't work, post your crash.txt. Your BLT log can be misleading for exactly this reason.

i'll see if i someone on the modding forum can help me fix it faster, though of course i have my doubts.

actually on further inspection, not only can i not FIND anything resembling a JSON file other than the afformentioned ones, though i think i might not be searching for them properly, but on further inspection, the crash log says the reason it crashed was from "access violation." Furthermore i CANT uninstall the entire mod folder, as it would pretty much render the game unplayable thanks to me having stuff like weapon modification customizer and weapons requiring beard lib. so, instead of that, i will just see if posting the crash log'll do any good.

Im not sure it'd work considering i have a ♥♥♥♥ ton of mods that need beardlib to work. Nonetheless in the mean time i tried replacing beardlib with the newest version to no luck. As for reinstalling BLT, also didnt work.

It's probably one of your Beardlib mod_overrides. Not sure.

One of your mods adds assets of some kind, probably a custom weapon. Remove those.
