Uncaught ReferenceError: vw_Hard_Core is not defined

Page partially loaded
Not all page resources could be loaded. This can affect how Google sees and understands your page. Fix availability problems for any resources that can affect how Google understands your page.

Google has encountered the following js error upon crawling:
Uncaught ReferenceError: vw_Hard_Core is not defined

/threads/61298/:1162
/threads/61298/:1154

Probably a new error, but for the same page:

This is not a bug. Googlebot attempted to crawl your site while you were uploading a new vault/core/model/vw.php (probably while upgrading). There are three ways to prevent this:

Tell Googlebot to stop crawling while you are upgrading
Use symlinks on your normal installation directories, and use a staging area for upgrades. Then update symlinks once files have been all uploaded to the staging area. Doable but may be unrealistic in certain situations, such as patching 1 file.
Disable the VaultWiki add-on while uploading files. Re-enable after upload is complete. This is the method the upgrade manual page recommends.

Otherwise it is possible for users and bots to access a file while it is being uploaded; that's just the way it is. There is no way to prevent that from a software perspective.

If I use the mobile friendly test tool then I can replicate this error at any time:

I am using a xenforo media gallery item page to test.

This is because your robots.txt is blocking Googlebot from accessing VaultWiki's static files which are located in /vault/resources. You have a rule which denies access to /vault. In 4.0.x, the rule should only block access to /vault subdirectories which are not /vault/resources.
