I confirm:

  • [ X ] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [ X ] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

The add-on starts and shortly after crashes upon running for a few seconds (depending on how much modules it tries to load).
It crashes basically once it's ready to inject itself into the game.

Reproduction

Start the add-on anything before experimental-bleeding-edge-10.0-275645-20251126-p1c3998-wdefa42-d8d58ad-vcc9e5e and it runs just fine, whereas after the update it just crashes.
