Crash when trying to switch to Caucasus map

[MurderOne]

I am experiencing a crash since I had to reset my pc that I never had before. This process entailed a 2.5 reinstall, including the downloads. I can load Nevada with no problems, but I went to create a mission in the Caucasus map and it popped up a window regarding metashaders. It presents a "Retry" or "Cancel". Retry doesn't do anything, it maintains the error, and Cancel crashes DCS. When I try to attach a log, it tells me "invalid file", so here's a copy/paste of the end of the log where it appears to be happening.
