Game keeps crashing few minutes into a raid (all maps and diff settings) SPT 3.11.3 Vanilla

the first week spt was running smoothly. now since a few days it started to crash a few minutes into any raid, no matter what map or settings.

it freezes up and sends me back to desktop, server and launcher still running normaly in the back with no error msg.

Same issue here, thought it was Nvidia update, but I rolled it back and it did not help. I was thinking it one of my mods, but OP has no mods installed so that rules those out.

Okay I have an update, it actually was the newest nvidia graphics update that caused the crashes on my end. I downgraded back to 576.02 drivers and it fixed the problem. did a few raids, even with mods and no crashes so far. If it does happen again. I'll let yall know.

Actually worked thanks a fortune, I love drivers updating when I have it on manual only and they break games because Nvidia cant ship stable drivers :33
Also downloaded v576.02 drivers
