FIXED: Drag and dropping every file from a fresh download of LSPDFR 0.4 seems to have fixed whatever was wrong with "LSPD First Response.dll!"
I'm usually pretty dang good at telling people what they've done/what they're doing wrong and reading logs. But my own log has me stumped. I haven't changed a thing (within the game folder or with the PC otherwise) from the last time I booted the game up and it loaded without a problem. It seems to be an issue with the "LSPD First Response.dll" file in "plugins."
I tried setting RPH to load nothing on startup (RPH loads fine), starting RPH as admin, removing all of my plugins, removing my mods folder, replacing the .dll with a new one via 0.4 re-download, disabling any firewall/antivirus protections, etc. As soon as I try to load LSPDFR via Rage console; this happens (and the game just crashes completely):
Please note that I have confirmed that a refresh install in a clean folder does indeed work still, but I would like to try and diagnose the issue I'm having in my modified version if possible. If not, I'll rebuild the game piece by piece again.
