Map editor instantly crashing

Hello,

Been getting back into some AOS and had an itch to make maps, unfortunately the editor crashes instantly.

Steps:

  • Launch game
    Select Modding > Map Editor
    Select any existing map
    Crash

or

  • Launch game
    Select Modding > Map Editor
    Select New Map
    Choose any settings (even 12KM 175cell default rest)
    Crash

So far I've yet to actually launch inside the editor, instead it always crashes instantly before loading up. I've researched the topic, and although there's various posts here and there, no one has a valid solution that works.

I've tried:

  • Reinstalling the game
  • Reinstall both dxsetup and VC from the _CommonRedist
  • Disabled virtual memory, and then also tried it enabled (originally was) but increased
  • Run Steam as administrator
  • Run the game as administrator
  • Run the DX11, DX12, and Vulkan clients
  • Set AOS as top priority for CPU

Just recently did a fresh reinstall of Windows 10 within the last month, so I'm running all freshly installed / updated drivers.

System Specs

  • Intel 4790K w/ H100i Liquid Cooler
    16GB DDR3 2400 GSkill Trident
    MSI AMD 480RX 8GB
    240GB SSD (OS)
    480GB SSD (Steam + games)

No clue at this point. My cousin who is running an i5, 1070ti, and windows 7 is able to run the editor just fine besides the normal crashes.

Thank you.
