Vulkan crash after v2.9

Anyone one else having this issue after update?  Knock on wood, there have been very few issues for me with this game so far, even pre-release.  It just seems suspicious that this shows up after a big update.

DX11 runs ok, Vulkan crashes to desktop right after loading the assets, same w/the benchmark.

 

System:

Win8.1 x64

32GB RAM

I7-4790K stock clocks

GTX 980 8GB stock clocks - driver updated 11/21

Playing @ 1200p.

Anything else?

Tracked it down to "Texture Quality" in video settings.  Low & Mid are all good.  High = CTD when  the map is ready to start.  Maybe a VRAM issue?  The game launches using ~1.6GB at menu on Low, ~2.4GB at Mid & 3.5GB at High.  After digging bit, I realized my GPU is only 4GB, not 8 as was stated in previous post.

If this is the culprit, a more graceful error message might be called for - lol.

The solution to this symptom was to full remove existing drivers and reinstall.  However, this was with a AMD Vega card and used the built in video driver removal AMD includes in their driver.  As is the case with Windows YMMV.
