Is this still an issue?

[Metal-Snake]

not sure, when I start it, it states it uses a fallback to software renderer
After that it randomly crashes at some point.

[warmenhoven]

To be clear, when you say the video renderer is set to hardware, you mean you're using the Metal video driver when this crashes?
