Fatal error encountered while waiting for shader

If you are still struggling to inject after following the initial guide, follow the steps below:

Pre-Injection

  • Restart your computer before injecting, it fixes a lot of things.
  • Close unimportant apps.

Injecting

  • Start the Cryo loading process, and press "ok" on the popup like normal.
  • Click Play in the BSG Launcher, then immediately remove your hands from your keyboard and mouse.

Waiting For EFT

  • Wait for the EFT icon to appear in the taskbar (may be blank).
  • As soon as you see it, move your mouse and click the icon, but do not press anything on your keyboard before this.

Key Pressing

  • Right after clicking the taskbar icon, begin pressing a single key (e.g. F).
  • At the same time, click inside the game window as soon as it appears. Continue pressing/spamming a key while doing so.

Done

  • If the game does not crash by the time the loading screen appears, you likely did everything correctly.
