@ Solutio Letum: In your launcher click on settings and go to DirectX. Just set it to DX9.

Fix worked, but it's kind of ridiculous that this would even happen.

Theres a sticky at the top explaining why this happened.

Its due to the odyessy client not supporting DX11 however as the launcher is setup for rubicon it still defaults to DX11 instead of DX9.

When rubicon gets re-deployed it should all work fine
