A crash happening on starting a run or while playing is most likely caused by a mod encountering a critical error. The reason for the crash can be found inside a crash log file. Those files can be found in the following folder:
C:\Users\[YourUsername]\Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance\
The crash files are ".txt" files that follow the pattern: "isaacv[VERSION]-[CRASH_DATE]-[CRASH-TIME]-[NUMBERS]-[NUMBERS].txt".
Example: "isaacv1.7.9b.J835-20230119-174342-25560-10688.txt"

Please send me the last 20 lines of the file, or the whole file itself.

In the end I found a way to prevent crashes from starting the game from Steam and I opened it from the. Exe in the my games folder has worked for me these days but I will look for the file to pass it to you the same way

same issue here. i cannot start any run because the game just completely crashes. uninstalling the mod leads to no minimap at all. and i am sorry but the game doesnt produce crash logs

EDIT: It actually doesnt completely crash the game windows considers the game as not responding but after waiting long enough does load me into the game
the logs are saved in the game files for me
(pls add me if you need some error finding)

if you disable the mod via the mods menu, you need to restart the game at least once to correctly reload all assets. otherwise the minimap will not be visible because it didnt reload all assets.

The "crash" sounds like an infinite loop in the code somewhere. but i never encountered this issue at all. it might be an incompatibility with another mod you have installed

i have a similar issue to this and i haven't found a fix. I have uninstalled all mods other than mini map API and when i run it on my main file it crashes on run start, however switching over to another file allows the game to run normally. i really do not want to delete my main file, nor do i want to start from scratch. is there a file is lingering in my save that's causing this issue?

i am also having this issue on my main save file only, too bad because i really like this mod. no crash logs but maybe it helps i started getting this issue after a crash when crafting an item with tainted cain
