Game crash / very long hang
Decided to post it here, in case it gets buried in the discord. There's a seemingly random crash happening whenever I select Gae Bolg Nexus as the VFX being replaced. This hang / crash doesn't happen unless I have a workspace open. Initially I assumed this was caused by a corrupted workspace, but I completely remade it and it still causes the issue. I've attached to workspace in question, and to reproduce, simply create a new item in the workspace, then select Gae Bolg Nexus as VFX being replaced.
hmm...I haven't been able to reproduce it. Is there anything weird in your /xllog (or the dalamud.log file located in %appdata%\XIVLauncher\)? Also, is the Gae Bolg Nexus the glamour you currently have equipped, or modified by any mods?
There isn't any log regarding this since the game just hangs, also no the Gae Bolg Nexus isn't equipped / glamoured or otherwise affected by mods.
do you have any other plugins that affect VFXs enabled? And was this tested in a crowed area?
It was tested in a seemingly empty residential district, and I do use penumbra which in turn affects other VFX, but this happens even without it enabled.
Huh, I guess I was wrong and technically there are 2 log lines regarding this, but nothing useful.

does it still happen with v1.7.5.2?
It still happens, yeah. Same log, same circumstance, this was with no 3pp loaded fyi. As soon as I clicked on select, the game just hanged.
It seems to be something about these items being together in the workspace.
Interestingly enough, I was able to trigger it if I had 2 random weapons, then added Curtana Nexus,Gae Bolg Nexus,and Bravura Nexus, then deleted the random weapons, the hang happening as soon as the delete went through. I tested each individual item involved in the SS above with Gae Bolg Nexus and no sort of combination that involved only 2 of the items + Gae Bolg Nexus triggered the hang.
some more things to try, since this is kind of stumping me:
- Can you check the folder that the workspace is located in? Is there anything weird there?
- Can you try setting the Dalamud style to "Dalamud Standard"?
- Can you send me your VFXEditor settings (located in
%appdata%\XIVLauncher\pluginConfigs)?
- The folder only contains other workspace files, and only a few ones.
- Still crashed on

Also I noticed I have some temp avfx files stored, a few of them are dated recently, but 2 of them are older. Edit: Deleting those temp files didn't seem to affect the hang one way or another.
Hiding tabs with the latest update seems to fix it, so there's something funky going on with tabs I guess.
