File not Found, Incorrect Vertex Layout, Crashes on loading screen in maps

It's almost guaranteed if I have a rare stone with max affixes/suffixes OR a map with a lot of affixes/suffixes(or maybe just several special events at once like boss + delerium + breach + corruption) it either crashes at loading screen or loads the map and crashes within seconds.

The Client.txt logs show file not found every time this happens:

It seems like too many modifiers on one map just creates issues. This completely bricked my endgame. I can't run maps unless it has few modifiers with a blue or white stone. This forces me to spend currency on maps, but the currency doesn't drop enough because I can only run maps with few bonuses. Several maps are unplayable because I have multiple towers adding bonuses and on top of that I lose the stone and am forced to find another map or load the same one with a garbage stone.

I don't even know if GGG is aware of this as I've only seen a few posts that describe this same problem and they're hidden in the thousands of other posts regarding crashes for other reasons. This is 100% not a multi-thread issue and poeuncrasher doesn't fix it. I've tested this enough to understand what's causing it and check the logs on every crash. I am guaranteed not to crash 100% of the time if I don't have a long list of modifiers on the map.

Getting another error stemming from the same problem. Crossing my fingers that GGG is at least aware of this

I'll just keep bumping this since ggg isn't even acknowledging the problem exists

Now I'm getting this even when using a white stone on a map with no modifiers, which didn't happen once before the hotfixes
