When it starts to rain my game will quickly crash. I don't need to be able to see the rain, I can be at y20 underground and it will still happen. Standing indoors on the surface, looking straight down with no rain on screen also doesn't help. My GPU is slightly aged but still perfectly serviceable for this title particularly, a Geforce 770 running driver version 432.00.

Only workaround presently is to wait until nightfall and then try to change the day to stop the rain.

Interestingly, the crash doesn't seem to generate crash reports. I have no crash reports that were generated this year, only older ones from 2019.
