CTD? A venereal disease? From Toxikk? You should expect nothing less.

Crash to desktop ?

Well, in that case, either reinstall the game -- it fixed crashing for some guy on the discord -- or try turning off texture streaming in the video settings UI; or try fiddling with UseMinimalNVIDIADriverShaderOptimization or bInitializeShadersOnDemand in one of the .ini files, I forget which one; or try updating your video card driver, unless it started happening after you updated it, in which case maybe revert it.

Tried reinstalling, didn't help

I'm on AMD - I don't think I'd played the game since 2017, probably never joined a match and just checked the options back then too. So I saw the update and thought I should give it a go.

I'll try your suggestions

Well I'm glad you're trying the game again, even if you did catch the CTD. Please let me know if anything works.
The discord, chat.toxikk.com, might also be a good place to get help.

The odd thing, after reinstalling I noticed I had streaming textures disabled already. But for some reason it worked this time. It's strange because I did already uninstall and reinstall before to see if it would work.

I was able to join a bot match, the bots were daft but it was fun to play. I could imagine how fun it would be with players.

I wish I knew what changed that stopped the CTD, so could post here to help anyone else with the same issue in future.

Likely due to minimal stack size. the shadercompileworker stack overflows almost instantly upon initial load of any shader-dense map.

Setting bInitializeShadersOnDemand=True under [Engine.ISVHacks] in UDKEngine.ini should resolve the issue.
