was working perfectly and had been putting off updating to 15.5 from 15.2 .
updated to 15.5 and it now crashes after building shaders ???
I can’t post the apple log cuz it is too long . any help ?
first few lines of the crash report
can confirm it crashes with 1.1.7 with similar report!
ran apple system diagnostic and hardware came back fine!

fixed it by doing a full wipe of vdmx as per the fixing common vdmx issues !
now running perfectly !
After you updated, did you try deleting and reinstalling VDMX6?
That’s the default protocol since updates can cause weird things to go missing on a OS level.
Drag your VDMX6 apps to the trash. Empty them. Restart the computer, reinstall from the latest DMG.
