Geode Issue

• [x] I confirm that this bug is NOT related to a mod but directly to Geode Loader itself.

Platform

Windows

SDK commit

SDK Commit N/A (latest official release build)

Geode Version

v4.4.0

Mods Installed

megahack installer, megahack, attemp utilities, better progression, Betterinfo, click between frames, custon keybinds, customizable wave trail, death tracker, editor level id api, gddl integration, globed, jukebox, level thumbnails, misc budfixes, node ids, xdbot

Expected Behavior

Expected Behavior

When starting a level, the game should begin playing normally without freezing. The level should load and start the gameplay immediately, with no freezes or pauses in the gameplay.

Actual Behavior

Actual Behavior

After starting any level, the game immediately freezes on the first frame. The screen remains static, and gameplay does not start. However, pressing ESC or Restart still works, meaning the game isn't completely frozen, but the level does not proceed.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Geode and some standard mods (e.g., BetterEdit, BetterInfo, Globed).
2. Launch Geometry Dash via Geode.
3. Start any level (either from the main menu or level editor).
4. The game will freeze immediately on the first frame of the level, and gameplay does not proceed.
5. However, pressing ESC or Restart will still work, but the level does not continue.

Additional Information

Additional Info

• I can play the game without Geode, but the modding features are very important to me, so playing without it is very inconvenient.
• The same setup works perfectly on another PC with identical specs and mods.
• I've tried the following solutions, but the issue persists:
  • Disabling all other mods one by one to see if there's a conflict.
  • Deleting Geode config/cache files.
  • Reinstalling Geometry Dash.
  • Updating GPU drivers (NVIDIA/AMD).
  • Running Geometry Dash as administrator.
  • Disabling overlays (e.g., Discord, NVIDIA).
• The problem only happens on this particular computer; everything works fine on other systems.
• I can provide log files if necessary.
