Just type your GPU - AMD 6700 XT. Or just delate this line.

edit: removed this line from config, but the problem still exists

never mind, the problem is back after re-starting the game. that command is taken out from my config, so it wasn't the issue.

I see that everyone assume that this has to be software problem, my question is the problem occurs only with ET? What about other games? I suggest just use HWInfo program to monitor your graphic card core temp, the drivers version and all data witch is needed to see what’s actually going on. With that program you can create logs, so the best you can do is just run program and create log druing your game and that fatal crash. Take care!

 

Here you got link to program itself:

Desktop, I don't have any old drivers. I used a software that removes everything from the old graphics card before installing new one. I have done this several times and never had an issue before so it's not related to it.

Yes, only with ET. Other games are running perfectly fine. It's not related to the graphics card I'm 100% sure of it. I have used older AMD card before with ET and it ran just fine.

Have you tried fresh cfg, to test if it's your configure error, or just game error? This is easy to test. Just move your old cfg files to another place, or just rename them into something totally different. Game will make new default ones on it's own.

This is most likely where the issue was. I removed the config from that folder and game made me a new one. Then I just replaced it with my config where I had removed the lastvalidrenderer line. Game works now.

i actually assumed u had last valid render  set to your old card. and it just kept reverting . i woulda just went in etmain and mods cfgs and change that line too your new one. but nice u got it working.
