The VR executable does not generate a rendered xml anymore and it crashes on start up. This at least happens for me on a fresh install. Standard works fine. Please help. I am sad. I have dug through forums and have tried making my own renderer_settings_dx11.xml and have had no success.

Right after posting this, I found a forum post about how newer Intel processors don't launch the game correctly and that the team is aware. Thanks Overkill!
