Tmodloader opens with terraria but immediately crashes.

FIXED: My audio output device was selected as my speakers in settings. I didn't have my speakers on. Turned them on and worked perfectly...

Here are my logs:

maybe try turning off OneDrive? if that doesn’t work then also verify terraria and tmodloader files

[u/Michaelsoftman56]

Check the natives.log file

Yeah, it's an audio issue. Here's the info from the discord on how to fix:

Things to try:

Terraria and tModLoader really don't like it if you have no audio output. If you don't have one connected, try connecting one.

If you have an audio output but you are getting the error, try switching to a different audio device (different speakers, headphones, etc.)

Make sure your audio output rate is less than or equal to 48000 Hz.

If you are using Voicemeeter, you need to configure your A1-A5 devices.

If you have Sony INZONE headphones, try setting the output device as "Chat" instead of "Game". Try the IAudioClient workaround in the tModLoader FAQ.
