100% crash rate when trying to start up the game.  Uninstall/reinstalling to a different disk and updating drivers had no impact.

This appears to be a GPU driver crash. Sometimes overlay related, like with fpsmon

This is indeed coming from OBS graphics-hook64.dll as well as Overwolf OBS ow-graphics-hook64.dll

Not too much we can do, make sure these are up to date as they've probably fixed it themselves.

`-novr` fixed the crash for me. OBS Studio was up-to-date and closed anyway

Thank you Hype, I really couldn't figure for the life of me why Sbox wouldn't launch anymore after trying so much. My Valve Index was always plugged in (before too) but now with the launch argument "-novr" it works, thanks!!
