Description: Game crashes back to Epic Launcher after pressing Launch Hitman
Steps to reproduse: Load up Epic launcher. Press play on Hitman 3. Small Hitman 3 launcher loads. Press Launch Hitman 3. Starts to load but then screen goes black for a few seconds and then crashes back to the Epic Launcher. No error message.
Frequency: Every time I try to play the game from the Epic launcher.
My issue is the game crashing to the Epic launcher when trying to run the game:
My system is below. Reinstalled H3 several times. Also reinstalled the launcher.
Tried two different drives. Verified Files. Ran launcher and game in admin mode. Using DX12 and latest Nvidia Drivers 461.09. No clue what else to do. This is happening on the deluxe version. H1 and H2 work flawlessly through Steam.
