Describe the bug

I am encountering the same bug as when the 3.4 update was released: when logging in into the game, right after the train animation, the game crashes. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the IPA, changed the terminal but nothing seems to work.. i had previously fixed this bug so i don' really know what to do

Steps to reproduce

launch the Honkai Star Rail through playcover and log in

Expected behaviour

The game crashes, you get a notice from Apple that says the app unexpectedly crashed

Crash log


What version of PlayCover are you using?

3.1.0

What version of macOS are you using?

Sonoma (macOS 14)

I have a bit more information here thanks to some crash reports. I think it might have to do with buffer allocation which then causes a seg fault. I'm fairly new to MacOS so I'm not completely sure on terminology it also took me way longer to figure out how to even check debug logs. 😅

'-[MTLIOAccelDevice newBufferWithLength:options:]: failed assertion 'length(67108864) must be less than 16777216.'

Thank you! I also saw a ton of connection issues, adding this to the hosts file fixed it for me too.
