    @emstevenzz I don't do any reshade/gshade support here, so I can't tell you if htat's an issue. DX11 doesn't break anything in CAS mod-free -- I've got no CAS UI mods and have been on DX11 since it first started.

    More Columns just got an update this evening.

    Have you tried a clean folder test? a vanilla test? I'm out most of tomorrow but there are testing resources in How to Use Mods and CC

@emstevenzz I have the issue too, however the CAS background did go back to its default after I removed the CC. I tried deleting localthumbcache and put it back in, but the question mark was still there. No telling if the creator will update these, I certainly hope so.

I hope you're able to find the problem. Good luck! <3

    @MsMoBear Looks like some CAS Backgrounds need DX11 updates. Have you tried switching back to DX9?

      @luthienrising Thank you so much for bringing that up! I had forgotten that I had gotten pushed into DX11, and from the wording, I thought I wouldn't be able to get back to DX9. However, I was able to find the setting and switch it back to DX9, and when I put the CC background back in and went into CAS, the background was working again, so definitely seems to be the DX9 to DX11 change.

      However, I actually like the change with DX11, and my game feels smoother, so I'll just find a background that is compatible or stick with the default!
