Game Crashes when Discord is Open [WORKAROUND UNTIL FIXED]

[ZeldaMotherMan]

I have created a service request with Empyrean as well. I'm posting this for visibility and a workaround.

TL;DR

Game crashes while Discord is open due to a change in how games can interface with Discord from a few months ago.

Workaround is to close Discord before opening the game!

Issue

After reinstalling recently, I found that I could not launch the game. It would get most of the way through the loading screen, then the Unity Crash Handler window would pop up, then the program would completely close out. After some searching online, I found where the crash files are stored in the temp folder. The stack trace points to an issue with the Discord SDK:

ERROR: SymGetSymFromAddr64, GetLastError: 'Attempt to access invalid address.' (Address: 00007FFE48635AE6)
0x00007FFE48635AE6 (discord_game_sdk) (function-name not available)
0x00007FFE488A3EE0 (discord_game_sdk) rust_eh_personality
0x00007FFE488A3358 (discord_game_sdk) rust_eh_personality

0x00007FFE48635AA6 (discord_game_sdk) (function-name not available)

Based on articles I have researched, it appears that Discord has made large changes to their SDK in recent months:

• Article from The Verge discussing new SDK[www.theverge.com]
  
• Announcement from Discord about the SDK changes[support-dev.discord.com]
  
• New Discord SDK reference[discord.com]

Workaround

The workaround in the meantime is to close Discord prior to launching the game.
