crinrict hi, thanks so much for your response :')
i found that switching my graphics from low/medium to high, as well as playing in laptop mode (temporarily) fixed the issue. however, it went back to the circle logo and black screen.
here is the text file.

i seemed to have found the culprit. i didn't realize the rainbow circle was reshade, and the specific gshade that has been causing a black screen on start up was the hot cocoa gshade by cocodaintysims.
