Payload Demo files crashing

Whenever I try to view a demo of a payload game, TF2 will crash once setup ends with the error HL2.exe has stopped working.

I can't use demo_gototick or the demoui menu to skip past this point without a crash, and haven't been able to find a solution after hours of googling the probelm.

Does anyone know how I might be able to fix this?

Try turning off multicore rendering, or retting everything with the -autoconfig launch option if you have all your configs backed up.

EDIT: actually -autoconfig doesn't touch your configs, it only ignores them.

-autoconfig - Restores video and performance settings to default for the current hardware detected. Ignores settings inside any .cfg files until this parameter is removed.
