Godot 4 beta versions after 7 does not launch

[hellodongi1]

Godot version

4.0 RC1

System information

windows 11, nvidia gtx 970m

Issue description

The last version i could launch is godot 4.0 beta 7. After that, no version of godot is launching. I tried;

• clean install windows 11
• upgrade graphic driver
• downgrade graphic driver
• C sharp version of godot

nothing works. I used console, lauched godot from command prompt etc. no error message shows up. I believe, some feature that is introduced at 4.0 beta 8 introduced a bug that prevents godot from running on certain systems. Maybe, related to vulkan i don't know.

Steps to reproduce

launch godot on specific system

If you are able to compile Godot from source, you could attempt bisecting the regression between 4.0 beta 6 (7f8ecff) and beta 7 (0ff8742), following this guide: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/contributing/workflow/bisecting_regressions.html

I've just referenced this issue from another one where I explain basically the same problem. Godot behind beta 7 doesn't even start or respond to commands in cmd, it doesn't even show the first line where the web page appears, it doesn't give any sign that it's running.

#74288

In the last comment I explain my problem, but I think it's basically the same as this one.

I've looked over the PRs between beta 7 and beta 8, there are 151. Godot takes 30 minutes to compile on my system, that's 75 hours compiling... Some kind of manual selection has to be done, some kind of assistance is needed , discard some PR, something. Bibisect this one by one is not feasible.

You should use git bisect. It will reduce your compilation count to 8 times as it's bisecting instead of compiling every version.

Oh!, exists a command for that! Well I will try to find the bug.
