Vulkan Device Error followed by Fatal Error message on M4 Pro

Hi,

I’ve created a .tox file on a Mac M3 Max - OS Sequuoia 15.1.1 that runs fine on my mac but when trying to open it on my collaborator’s mac, a mac mini M4 Pro, he gets these errors.

Here are our respective mac specs and the error messages:

Thank you!

Hey @cecilelebon

What version of TouchDesigner are you using ?

Could you please share the crash report, the location is in that first dialog you shared.

Best,
Michel

I don’t have the crash report on the M4 as this mac is with someone else. But I figured out it was a version issue. I was using 12120 and 11340 was installed on the other mac. So I rebuilt the tox in 11340. When rebuilding I found out the LayoutTOP was causing this crash. I guess it was fixed on the next versions. I seem to remember coming across this crash with this previous version.

I am also receiving often the same Vulkan Device Errors. Sometimes right after i opened a new project, sometimes only after having TD open for hours. I am running the latest build of TD + latest update of MacOS. This is what the message points to but seams not to be the problem.

[2025.31550 - MacbookPro M4 MacOS Tahoe 26.1]

Any advice? I was receiving the error also in other builds and os updates.. I updated MacOS just now, to be sure. But had an error straight away, while TD is open right now without any issue
