DSMS crashing on start up

[Leroswend]

I am experiencing immediate crashing on start up, I have used UXM selective unpacker and followed all other instructions for DSMS, I am not sure what is causing the issue crash log is attached

The former error message appears to be fallout from a different crash (likely unknown dcx type, and the last loaded project not being defined, so it very intelligently crashes when trying to save a backup)

The latter error message is likely appearing because you don't have the files unzipped, so it's failing to find the regular shader, and then failing again to find the backup shader.

How would I go about fixing an unknown dcx type? I've also just been unable to open a new project at all. Sorry if I'm coming across a bit dumb but I'm very new to using programs like dsms so just want some clarification on where things are going wrong.

anyone know of a fix??

I'm getting the same 'parameter path' crash with the latest Erdtree-compatible build.

It doesn't matter if I try to open an existing project (No Overworld BGM mod, for that matter) or if I delete the project and start a new one from scratch.

Looks like an identical issue as #920.

anyone know when a fix is going to be released im pretty sure the dlc broke it somehow

Getting a series of very cool errors when creating a new ER project before it crashes:
