I recently updated my graphics card (nothing out of the ordinary, just a pretty standard update), and now CK3 is unable to start up. Every time I click "play" on the game launcher, the game will attempt to launch, but then crash quickly after. I do not have any mods active. I tried deleting the pdx_settings.txt file and relaunching the game, I tried validating game files via Steam, but neither of those have worked. I tried this both on the latest version (1.7) and on a previous version (1.6.0.2), but both versions run into the same issue.
When I deleted pdx_settings.txt and validated files, by the way, Steam didn't recover pdx_settings.txt. That only refreshed when I launched the launcher. I considered reinstalling the game, but was told that if the issue is the game not configuring graphics card settings right, then reinstalling would not fix this issue.
I have attached the error log from the crash for reference. Briefly looking through it, it does seem like the main catalyst for the crash is a graphics card issue, but I do not know how to fix this because the game does not respond to me manually manipulating the pdx_settings.txt file. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about how to fix this issue so the game is playable again.
For reference, I tried launching another PDX game (Stellaris) and I did not encounter this issue, so I can be sure that this is a CK3-specific issue.
