[]It's a good idea to do this anytime there's an update or even server
maintenance. Failing to do so could corrupt your index files and in
worse cases force a re-download of the game to fix.
Disable all mods.

Double check that the game works on vanilla. Indexs might have been corrupted.
= Find the latest clean indexs from TexTools Discord or redownload your game entirely.
