Wakes is listed as incompatible with Vulkan in their list. I would recommend just using Sodium

What list are you talking about?

No I will not "just use Sodium", Sodium while better than Vanilla, SUCKS! I can max out my Minecraft settings AND have X32 render distance on Vulkan mod, with no stutters.
(On GTX 1060 6GB + i7 3770k)

Also Wakes 0.2.2 didn't have this crash, but it's effect was broken

1. Weird. it shouldn't be that much of a difference
2. Use Embeddium or Nvidium

1. Weird. it shouldn't be that much of a difference

Yet it is. Also why wouldn't it be a difference, Vanilla is using old libraries while Vulkan mod uses Vulkan which is much newer and more efficient.

2. Use Embeddium or Nvidium

?
So you saw my comment and that it said I have a gtx 1060 and you suggest a mod (Nvidium) that requires anything that is a "16xx series or newer (20xx series also works) that supports mesh shaders."
So a mod that's not supported..
Can this thread stay on topic, which is on Wakes crashing.

[KennyDevT]

The visuals were already broken so the fact that it's broken now is not very surprising

Thanks for stating the same thing I said three days ago.. in this same thread.

Calm down mate. Probably not going to get help being rude. Just trying to help find a solution.

Sodium works perfectly for me, it's very compatible and works with Wakes + shaders. You also might be able to max out your settings and render distance while staying above 100fps, like I do.

Vulkan seems to be incompatible with a lot of mods - I wouldn't call it a renderer with a lot of worth in that case. Pretty much everything on fabric is compatible with Sodium because mods are made to work beside it. Here's the list of Vulkan's incompatibilities: xCollateral/VulkanMod#226

Since visuals were broken with Wakes 0.2.2, it's a given that Vulkan could not be compatible with the current version of Wakes thus causing crashes. This could be due to an update of code or features to either mod, thus rolling back to different versions may fix the issue.

You coming here with mods I am already well aware of is not gonna help this..

Again, I am aware of my fps with Sodium vs Vulkan and Vulkan mod wins.

I've been testing mods with Vulkan since 2022 and have my own compatibility mod list, that other great people contribute to.
xCollateral/VulkanMod#46 and I am well aware of the other list. I don't understand why you gotta come here and mansplain your side when you haven't done as much testing as I have and you probably have much higher specs than I do (so does KennyDevT it seems) so you don't notice the performance hits as much as me or someone else with low-end hardware.

Since visuals were broken with Wakes 0.2.2, it's a given that Vulkan could not be compatible with the current version of Wakes thus causing crashes. This could be due to an update of code or features to either mod, thus rolling back to different versions may fix the issue.

Of course it's due to an updated code. I would not recommend anyone to roll back to a lower version of Vulkan since the newer the version is, the better the performance and compatibility with mods is. It's a Wakes issue and I understand if Goby56 does not wanna partake in researching what causes this at this time.
Anyways I hope you stop "recommending" and unless you provide a crash log or something to fix this, to not comment further. Have a nice day.

Alright well, it seems as if I can't give my free time services here.

Not everything I say may be correct but I'm guessing if your attitude was less autocratic, the mod developer may even consider helping you out with your crash.

You're the ass here. I keep saying I don't need your opinions, yet you keep showing up.
I notified them about the issue, that's all I did, but you're the one who isn't okay with people choosing something else than Sodium.
P.S. if you're not sure that your free service is of value, maybe don't show up..
