Game Crashes on Game Ready

CS:GO Problems
1

Removing Server Crasher LUA entirely fixed the issue November 28 2021

As soon as any game is made available the game crashes.
Immediately exits to desktop, no error.
I do not see the “Ready” green screen or the “Accept” text.
Occurring on all non-garbage game modes (wingman, comp, deathmatch, casual, custom).

No significant changes to OS recently.
I have verified files twice and completely reinstalled once.

Is not account specific - multiple accounts have the issue.

Windows 10 21h1.
Issue occurring since November 26th

‘ecx’ and ‘ebp’ change depending on the crash. All other data remains the same.

cs update probably broke something

Last update was November 17th - Game started crashing on the 26th?

Logs are stored in the Counter-Strike Global Offensive folder. I had a same problem, in logs there it

“had”

Did you fix it?
Thanks for the info.

Remove servercrasher.lua if you have one. Then restart CS, it should help.

Much appreciated.

Why does an unloaded LUA affect the game?
Was the LUA loading even when ‘unloaded’?

I made a fresh config and assured no features were on.

idk why. I also turned off LUA, but the game kept crashing. Only the removal of lua helped
