"Shader uses incorrect vertex layout"

I've been getting this crash on only my main sorceress since around act 3 cruel. Was hoping the recent hotfixes might fix it, still get it constantly.

I get it on 2 systems, it's the game, I've tried everything. Really hoping this gets fixed so I can go back to playing.

I got the same crash reason today after reinstalling the game.
What fixed it was really simpple: game found 17 corrupted files.

I'm getting something simillar. It happened 3 times today on breaches...

I too keep on getting these when triggering mechanics like essences or when the deli boss spawn.

checking the game files helped me

-> rightclick the game on steam
-> properties
-> installed files
-> verify...

steam requested the corrupted files again and installed them. All done.

I hope this will fix it for you as well.
