[ApostolosBouz]

Hello @ssamjoel . Thank you for trying out Spartan.
I can't repro the issue. Did you run py generate_vs2022_vulkan.py before opening the solution ?

[PanosK92]

Will take care of it. Thank you for reporting and thanks for trying to help Apostolos.

[t0xxxic]

Hey, Yes I did generate the project new with py generate_vs2022_vulkan.py and then got into this crash.

[PanosK92]

Could you please provide log.txt, the engine produces this automatically and it should contain the Vulkan validation error I can see in the call stack.

Attaching the requested Log File

[PanosK92]

Thanks for the log, per Vulkan there is a null descriptor being used, hence the crash, I can't reproduce this, however because I don't use null descriptors for images or samples I enabled the null descriptor feature, which should in theory fix your issue.

Fixed by: 4d8a04d

Please let me know if this did the trick.

Seeing this error after grabbing the latest master and recompiling. Apologies if I am doing something wrong over here.

[Nickelium]

Maybe try to get latest NV driver
Does it happen on both debug and release?

[PanosK92]

A few people have tried and we can't reproduce this. Leaving the issue open for a little bit, want to think about it.

[PanosK92]

Closing this since nobody can reproduce it, feel free to open another issue if you have repro steps that can replicate it on other machine.

Thanks for trying to help!
