Hey!
First try reinstalling the game (I think you did this for 99% but I'll say it anyways) Second thing is check if you don't have any pending GPU driver update it can cause such events happening. Third you might try and see if disabling or enabling (depending to which you have set) freesync in your monitor setting fix it.
Cheers!
Hey!
Sorry to hear that the problem still persist you can try forcing the game to run on dx11 and then dx12 and see if it fixes it you can do that by:
1. Go into game folder where the .exe is
2. Create text file and write in it name.exe (the name of game exe) and then after that -d3d11 or -d3d12
It should look like name.exe -d3d11
3. Save file and then after that change .txt extension into .bat and try launching the game.
Hope this one solves the issue.
Cheers!
Hey!
No, you don't need to name your text file something specific. You only need to change it's extension from .txt to .bat and then run the game by double clicking bat file and not .exe of game so it looks something like that
If the forcing of the DirectX or OpenGL doesn't work you can try to change it to:
-window-mode exclusive
so in text file or the .bat file when you edit it it should be:
LovelyCraftPistonTrap.exe -window-mode exclusive
the last thing (if you're using laptop) is to change in the Intel Control panel and switch the 'Scaling' option from "Maintain Display Scaling" to "Maintain Aspect Ratio"
Hope that helps you with the problem.
Cheers!
Yo! I just don't think I'm fated to be able to play this game lol. Tried everything and nothing worked. Also my laptop uses an AMD Ryzen core and not Intel. I checked the control panel and tried all of the options available (It was already on preserve aspect ratio)... Maybe I'll come back in the future and it'll magically work lol. Thanks for all your help! Even if it didn't work I learned a lot of stuff which may be useful later!
Hey!
Sorry to hear that you still can’t run the game it really sucks. I hope that it fixes itself when the next update comes out and you could try different settings with properties of the .exe such as running as administrator, compatibility with other windows system or with disabling full screen optimalizations etc. in different customizations (if you haven’t already tried). Yeah but I can’t think of anything else at the moment if I’ll get to know some other ways I’ll let you know so you can try them if the game still won’t run of course. Hope next update fixes it.
Cheers!
